Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A pilot study in perioperative telemedicine that aims to demonstrate the efficiency, and safety of integrating telemedicine into the PACU environment. This pilot study will expand on our previously conducted proof-of-concept study for a telemedicine solution in the PACU. If this pilot study proves to be successful, the study team intends subsequently to expand such a telemedicine solution to multiple clinical locations.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Recovery Control Tower (RCT)

Clinicians in the RCT will remotely work with PACU clinicians to care for patients assigned to one of the two study bays. A version of AlertWatch® (AlertWatch, Ann Arbor, Michigan) decision-support software, customized for the PACU environment, will assist clinicians in the RCT to perform core PACU-related functions remotely. Caregility's iObserver, from the Caregility Cloud™ Virtual Care Platform, will be used for two-way video communication When feasible, RCT clinicians will join handoff activities from the OR to the PACU and discuss pertinent intraoperative events with clinical teams on the ground. RCT clinicians will document patient specific recovery tasks within AlertWatch to assist in tracking patient recovery progresses. RCT clinicians will be the initial point of contact for ongoing recovery care, such as order placements. The attending anesthesiologist in the RCT will assess patients' discharge readiness throughout their PACU stay.
