[Telemonitoring and healthcare research: digital and evidence-based care]

Against a backdrop of digital transformation of the healthcare system, remote medical monitoring is emerging as a major advance, particularly in oncology, where it enables patients' condition to be monitored remotely, complications to be detected early, care to be better coordinated and the quality of life of those being monitored to be improved. At the François-Baclesse cancer centre in Caen, a team has developed a web application for breast cancer patients. Its impact on compliance with hormone therapy, management of side effects and health-related quality of life has been assessed by a randomised, prospective study, Weppabac, presented in this article.
