gp-multitool.de

The intervention is based on the digital tool gp-multitool.de. The GPs can send questionnaires by email to patients and patients can fill out questionnaires at their home or in the waiting room of the practice using any digital device with browser and access to the internet. The digital tool also includes instructions for conducting a medication review. Results will be available from the computers of attending GPs. Decisions from talks between GPs and patients can be documented in the tool. The tool includes ten questionnaires: 1. patient preferences (including a. treatment goals, and b. involvement of other persons in decision making); 2. social life (including a. activities and participation, and b. social support); 3. treatment situation (including a. problems with medication, and b. treatment burden); 4. health complaints (including a. pain, b. psychiatric disorders, and c. other complaints). 5. resilience and protective behavior against heat.
