Development of a digital platform for nursing monitoring of patients with chronic kidney failure

This study aims to develop and propose the key criteria and elements necessary to be included in digital platforms for achieving high-quality monitoring of patients with chronic kidney failure.

The research was conducted from 2021 to 2023 in Moscow, Russia. A total of 75 patients comprised the experimental group (digital monitoring), while an equal number constituted the control group (standard nursing care).

Patients in the experimental group highly rated the convenience (4.6 ± 0.3) and accessibility (4.7 ± 0.4) levels of the monitoring system compared to those in the control group (convenience: 3.8 ± 0.4, accessibility: 3.9 ± 0.3). Furthermore, it was found that the level of patient satisfaction in the experimental group (4.4 ± 0.3) noticeably exceeded that in the control group (3.9 ± 0.4). The effectiveness of digital platforms is supported by data on the timeliness of detecting changes in patient's health status. In the experimental group, the response time to deteriorating health conditions decreased by 30% compared to the control group.

The conclusions of our study underscore the necessity of integrating digital monitoring platforms into medical practice. Monitoring utilizing digital technologies has the potential to significantly enhance patient satisfaction levels as well as promptness in responding to changes in their health status.
