Summary

Acute pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas which causes abdominal pain and is the most common gastro-intestinal reason for acute hospitalization in Western countries. Because care for a mild acute pancreatitis is supportive, early discharge of patients with a predicted mild course of acute pancreatitis might be safe with the use of remote home monitoring. This might reduce the demand for hospital beds and allow patients to benefit from recovering in their home environment. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of a novel care pathway in which patients with a predicted mild course of acute pancreatitis are discharged early with remote home monitoring.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Early discharge with remote home monitoring.

After at least 48 hours of hospital admission, patients are discharged early with the use of remote home monitoring. During home monitoring, heartrate, respiratory rate, posture and movement are monitored every 5 minutes for at least 4 days, using a wearable sensor. Core temperature is monitored using an ear thermometer. Patients are contacted once per day by a nurse from the Virtual Monitoring Centre (VMC) to assess pancreatitis related complaints, intake of fluids and food, pain and the use of analgesics. Patients are asked to provide information to the hospital using a smartphone app.
