Technologies and main functionalities of the telemonitoring application reCOVeryaID

Area of Science:

• Digital Health
• Telemedicine
• Respiratory Medicine

Background:

• The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the need for effective remote patient monitoring, especially for high-risk individuals.
• Existing Italian telemonitoring applications include reCOVeryaID, designed for COVID-19 patient remote care.

Purpose of the Study:

• To present a system model for an intelligent, multi-platform telemonitoring application called reCOVeryaID.
• To detail the technologies and functionalities of reCOVeryaID for remote care of patients with respiratory diseases, including COVID-19.

Main Methods:

• Development of a stand-alone, knowledge base-supported telemonitoring application (reCOVeryaID).
• Implementation of continuous monitoring of vital parameters for patients at home or in hospitals.
• Integration of alert systems for physicians upon detection of dangerous vital sign trends.

Main Results:

• The reCOVeryaID application enables continuous remote monitoring of vital signs for various patient groups.
• The system can promptly alert physicians to critical changes in patient health status.
• User satisfaction evaluation was conducted with patients and medical doctors.

Conclusions:

• The reCOVeryaID system provides a robust solution for intelligent telemonitoring of respiratory patients.
• The application facilitates integrated home care and timely medical intervention.
• The study demonstrates the potential of telemonitoring platforms in managing respiratory conditions and infectious diseases.
