Monitoring of chronic pain

The telehomecare monitoring service offers teaching and personalized follow-up at a distance. Patients with chronic pain can use this service to periodically assess their health condition and manage their symptoms. Telehomecare thus helps them prevent aggravations and allow for timely support from the clinical team.

Who is this service for?

Patients living with chronic pain. For example…

• musculoskeletal;
• post-surgical;

How does it work?

To access this service, the patient connects to the Internet from home using a personal device (smartphone, tablet or computer). The patient answers daily self-assessment questionnaires. The data entered by the patient in the Telehomecare Platform is sent to the healthcare professional throughout the follow-up period. Although the data is quickly transmitted to the clinician, it is important to remember that this is not an emergency service.

• Daily monitoring of symptoms (energy management, stress management, communication, sleep, etc.);
• Access to the health library (non-pharmacological therapy, nutrition, interpersonal relations, etc.);
• Messaging with the healthcare professional (questions, report a problem, etc.).
