Medixine solution

Our solution consists of three main parts

  1. Initial screening and risk evaluation
    • Questionnaire to find people with key symptoms and rule-based processes to forward them to the appropriate level of treatment. Questionnaires are easily modified when needed.
    • Automatic follow-up of cases that were not forwarded
    • Video visits and chats to clarify unclear cases
    • Video visits and chats to replace some of the appointments with doctors or nurses
  2. Remote monitoring follow-up and communication without human contact and a risk of infection
    • Vital signs remote monitoring to track e.g. body temperature
    • Follow-up questionnaires for patients and people in quarantine.
  3. Sharing your specific information and guidance
    • Providing reliable information and reducing unnecessary concerns

In countries where the penetration of mobile and other internet connected devices is high, a connected care solution that does not require proprietary apps is an extremely fast and efficient way to start population screening and follow-up. The only thing that needs to be communicated to people is the URL (web-address) of the service. Medixine Suite can be used on mobile phones, tablets or PCs, without installing any dedicated apps.

1. Initial screening and risk evaluation

Advanced questionnaires are the basis for coronavirus screening. They can be targeted to a selected audience or to the whole population in an certain area. Rule-based outcomes are defined based on the results. Questionnaires can also be easily updated and adjusted.

National, country specific questionnaires and processes can be easily configured to the solution. Questionnaires also take into account other health risks than coronavirus and can provide additional information and guide patients to the right caregiver. The appropriate care pathway or workflow can be specified case by case.

2. Remote follow-up and care

If there is a risk of transmitting the disease the patient is usually placed in a quarantine either in a hospital, home or other location. Medixine Suite remote monitoring automatically transmits patients’ questionnaire answers and measurements to the platform. The solution has screening and flagging functions that can evaluate the risk class and flag the patients needing medical care to the professional’s attention. Available measurements include body temperature, pulse oximetry and blood pressure.

The solution also includes a chat, secure messaging and video meetings so that medical professionals can easily contact their patients remotely. This also gives the patients an efficient way to communicate with medical professionals when phone lines are busy, without a risk of transmitting the disease.

Care pathways (or workflows) can be tailored according to need and can include all the tools of the system (questionnaires, video meetings, chat, messaging, monitoring measurements). The solution can also be used to monitor other conditions such as diabetes and asthma.

Treatment follow-up

Patients that are initially being treated at home and patients that have been discharged from hospital can be monitored using treatment follow-up questionnaires and remote monitoring of vital signs. Again, rule based processes help professionals screen patients.

3. Information and guidance

Information sharing can be included in the overall solution. Share localized, reliable information and instructions  to prevent unnecessary concerns.  If needed, you can also open a chat for the citizens to discuss their fears and get more support.
