COPD

Increase self-management of COPD patients

COPD

Viduet helps monitor symptoms and movement data. Viduet helps patients recognize a lung attack independently, with the digital lung attack action plan. This can prevent pulmonary exacerbations and reduce hospitalizations. In addition, movement patterns are tracked, for example, the patient can be encouraged to achieve personal step goals.

Help your COPD patient recognize lung attacks early

Viduet helps you set up the care pathways of your patients with COPD as efficiently as possible. This gives you more insight into your patient’s health, and allows you to spend your time as efficiently as possible. Together with your patient, you can create a personalized care program using different care modules. Check out our care modules for COPD below.
How does it work?

Viduet helps patients better recognize their symptoms and take appropriate actions in time. For this purpose, we have developed several programs that meet the needs of the patient.

Depending on the program, patients regularly complete questionnaires through the app, wear a smartwatch and can find the digital lung attack action plan in the app.

Patients are directly coached using the action plan. Based on combined trends of movement activity and introduced complaints, the patient receives targeted advice. In this way, the patient can take the right actions at the right time.

Asthma Monitoring

This care module contributes to improved treatment and more efficient consultations. Patients complete the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) in the Viduet app at the appointed times. This questionnaire gives the patient and health care provider insight into the patient's degree of asthma control. In addition, the patient answers questions about compliance and use of additional medication. When the outcomes exceed the thresholds, the health care provider is informed as required. In this way, Viduet makes it possible to recognize complaints early and take appropriate action immediately. Thus, this care module contributes to improved treatment of asthma patients in general practice. In addition, this care module contributes to more efficient consultations. Because Viduet provides insight into trends of symptoms for both patient and provider, consultations can be used more efficiently and the number of consultations can be reduced.

Asthma Self-Management

This care module gives patients with asthma even more control over managing their own health. Patients regularly complete the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) in the Viduet app. The outcome of this questionnaire gives them insight into how well they are controlling their asthma. In addition, the patient also answers questions about compliance and use of additional medication. Viduet will support the patient in recognizing any deterioration in a timely manner. Depending on the degree of deterioration, the patient is immediately coached to either take additional medication or to contact the general practice. Also, the general practice can be informed in the desired manner so that important events are recorded appropriately. In this way, Viduet contributes to improved treatment in which appropriate action is taken more quickly once intervention is required. The additional insights into key parameters also contribute to more efficient consultations where the frequency of consultations can be reduced.

COPD monitoring

This care module enables remote monitoring of the disease burden of patients with COPD. Using validated questionnaires such as the CCQ or the Disease Burden Meter, the healthcare provider gains a better understanding of the patient's disease burden. The patient completes this questionnaire in the Viduet app at designated times. Viduet provides insight into trends of symptoms for both patient and caregiver. Because this questionnaire is completed each time prior to the hospital consultation, the patient and caregiver are better prepared for the consultation. This not only promotes efficiency, but in some cases means that hospital visits can be avoided. When readings exceed thresholds, patient and caregiver will be informed in the desired manner so they can take appropriate action in a timely manner.

DigiLAP

The DigiLAP is a standard part of the SmartCOPD care module, but can also be used as a stand-alone module. Many Dutch hospitals and general practitioners already use the paper lung attack action plan. The DigiLAP is a digital implementation of this paper lung attack action plan. The caregiver completes with the patient what actions (such as taking medication or contacting the caregiver) the patient should take when symptoms consistent with a lung attack worsen. This digital implementation of the paper lung attack action plan ensures that patients better follow their lung attack action plan, allowing them to recognize symptoms faster and take appropriate action. In this way, the DigiLAP increases the self-management of COPD patients which can prevent many hospitalizations. Click on the link to learn more about the DigiLAP.

Activity Coach

Exercise is an important factor that can influence patients' disease course. Using the Activity Coach care module, you ensure that the patient is coached to adopt optimal movement patterns. Thus, the patient is coached, without overexerting himself, to still move enough to promote the rehabilitation process. When you choose to deploy the Activity Coach, the patient will track their movement patterns through the smartwatch. Using our specially developed software for this smartwatch, the patient will be coached throughout the day to move within the ranges set by their healthcare provider, even if the patient moves too much. This care module can easily be combined with coaching by a physical therapist. In that case, the physical therapist can set the optimal bandwidths and adjust them as needed. Through a smart algorithm, Viduet recognizes when the patient moves out of bandwidth for an extended period of time. Viduet can then also inform the physical therapist and patient in the desired manner, so that the set bandwidths can be revised if necessary.

SmartCOPD

This care module includes the validated intervention SmartCOPD. SmartCOPD, formerly known as EmmaCOPD, helps patients recognize lung attacks independently. The intervention consists of a combination of the Digital Lung Attack Action Plan and the Activity Coach. In 2018-2020, LUMC conducted research on the effectiveness of SmartCOPD in patients who had two or more exacerbations with hospitalization per year prior to the study. The results of this study show statistically significant evidence that SmartCOPD reduces hospitalization days by 79% in this target group. The results were published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) in April 2021. If desired, the validated SmartCOPD intervention can also be used within primary care. For patients with a low disease burden, Viduet also offers a special configuration of the DigiLAP within this care module. Within this implementation, the digital lung attack action plan is activated as soon as the patient moves outside its bandwidths. In this way, the burden of the intervention on the patient is minimized.

Viduet’s design lends itself well to transmural care pathways. This allows easy referral of patients through and back between primary and secondary care. Viduet helps you set up the transmural care pathways of patients with COPD as efficiently as possible. In this way, all caregivers involved will have a better understanding of their patient’s health, and everyone can spend their time as efficiently as possible. See below our care modules for COPD that can be used in transmural networks.
How does it work?

The patient receives a blood pressure measurement package from Viduet. Viduet checks and calibrates the measuring equipment and makes sure it is delivered to the patient. The patient engages in multi-day protoccluded blood pressure measurement. Viduet provides a guide for this and can assist if needed.

Viduet can set signals at certain readings, if the caregiver so desires. Thus, the caregiver or caregiver can be alerted to an extremely high reading, or to any reading the caregiver desires.

Also, for a given value, the patient can be directed to the home health website to read more.

The measurement results are automatically put into a clear report, which can be viewed directly on the Viduet dashboard. In addition, results of the protocolled weekly measurement can be sent immediately to the HIS as a lab value. All results can be viewed at any time, with insight into the trend over time.

SmartCOPD regional

SmartCOPD, formerly known as EmmaCOPD, is a validated intervention that can reduce hospitalization days by as much as 79%. This care module involves an implementation of SmartCOPD in which different healthcare providers within the region work together around the patient. The SmartCOPD intervention consists of a combination of the Digital Lung Attack Action Plan (DigiLAP) and the Activity Coach. SmartCOPD helps patients adopt optimal movement patterns and to independently recognize lung attacks and take appropriate action immediately when necessary. The SmartCOPD regional care module is designed to help first and second lines work better with each other and make referrals easier. In 2018-2020, LUMC conducted research on the effectiveness of SmartCOPD in patients who had two or more exacerbations with hospitalization per year prior to the study. The results of this study show statistically significant evidence that SmartCOPD reduces hospitalization days by 79% in this target group. The results were published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) in April 2021. Through the SmartCOPD regional care module, Viduet enables hospital, family physician, home care, physical therapists, and medical direction centers to work together around the patient. This is made possible in part by the architecture of the platform. The image below shows schematically, using the Viduet care rings model, how Viduet enables this collaboration. Viduet makes it easy to appropriately engage each involved healthcare provider in the patient's care pathway. First, all involved caregivers are easily added to the patient's community. Then, with a single button-press in the personal care program, caregivers can prepare a complete care path, including the desired settings for handling signals, for a new patient. In this way, the patient's care path can also be easily converted at any time. This allows patients who are referred or referred back to be easily transitioned to their new care pathway.
