Summary

Women admitted to the maternal and fetal medicine unit are often discharged after a short hospital stay. The routine work in the department is prioritized such that the discharge letter are written. In the last year the Apollo mobile application (app) was introduced. It contains general information on the medical center and the maternal and fetal unit department as well as the medical records, laboratory results and summary and discharge letters. The Apollo app is used in the maternal and fetal unit in the discharge process so the patient can receive the discharge letter in the app and does not need to wait until the discharge letter is written.

It is not known whether this process is more effective than the regular discharge process and patients' satisfaction was not assessed previously.

In the present study we will compare discharge data, satisfaction and safety of discharging using the Apollo app versus the routine process.
