ReMindCare App for Patients From First Episode of Psychosis Unit.

Summary

ReMindCare is an app designed by the Unit of Psychiatry at the Clinical Hospital of Valencia in liaison with the Polytechnic University of Valencia.

This e-Health app gathers information about the clinical health status of patients with Psychotic Disorder Diagnose through daily and weekly brief assessments.

This information is displayed in a restricted access website, where clinicians can visualize data from patients as well as download pdf reports of main data collected by the app. These reports can be attached to the electronic clinical report of the patient at the hospital database, being accessible for consultation for every clinician involved in treatment of the patient.

Furthermore, ReMindCare produces different alarms which notify clinicians about variations into patients health status or the cessation of using the app. Moreover, patients can also deliberately generate an urgent consultation alarm.

The introduction of ReMindCare app into clinical practice will follow a clinical trial structure in which treatment as usual (TAU) of patients from a First Episode of Psychosis Unit will be compared to ReMindCare app intervention program. After participants eligible for inclusion complete baseline assessments they will be randomly allocated to one of the two groups (Intervention or TAU) by a basic single blind randomization in which an independent researcher will perform the allocation using a computerized random number generator.

Information collected through the app and variations into clinical data will be analyzed among time. First assessment of these data will be conducted after 6 months of patient´s enrollment into the study. Subsequent analysis will be conducted yearly.
