Summary

With the aging population, the needs for total joint replacement are increasing. A successful recovery after joint replacement surgery depends on timely and active physical therapy in the early postoperative period. To accomplish it, an integrated care model based on clinical pathway has been implemented to secure the medical quality and patient safety. Recently, the emerging technology of electronic medical record and medical informatics have made challenges to the traditional health care models such as the clinical pathway. As a matter of fact, the integration of informatics technology also provides an opportunity to modernize the clinical pathway and make it smarter. By bridging the HIS system and the medical cloud of a virtual platform of interactive clinical pathway, the quality of care and patient safety can be better secured and the performance can be stored for analysis.

The project " The effects of intelligent clinical pathway for total joint replacement" is a subproject of the integrated project " An integrated model of intelligent medical service for total joint replacement". It will be carried out in a facility built with intelligent environment (Kaohsiung CGMH) and the data will be stored and computed in the medical care cloud and specialist system server. Collaborating with subproject 2 and 4 (smart wearing device) and subproject 3 (total nursing care), this project is intended to set the milestones for the postoperative recovery after total joint replacement. Supplemented with the specialist system and interactive programs, it will be implemented in total joint replacement patients as an vehicle for perioperative assessment, follow-up, monitoring, and instruction. The big data of the objective analytic results and feedback from the patients will be the important reference for medical and health promotion.

Interventions

DEVICE

Patient infotainment system

The patient infotainment system is a quasi-interactive computer program connected to a server that pushes messages and educational programs ordered from the caring physicians or on-demand by the patients. The server has parallel data exchange gateways to the Hospital Information System (HIS), Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS), and can record the patients' responses to surveys and questionnaires.
