E-consult: To better inform patient.
View through CrossRef
e17049 Background: All surgeons have a personalized way of consulting, some deliver information exclusively orally, others through free-form diagrams or anatomical charts. Most patients go home with these patterns that are more or less readable with all the uncertainty of what they really understood or assimilated. Methods: To meet the expectations of patients, we made a computer application to help the surgeon during the consultation.During the consultation, gynecologist surgeons from Center F BACLESSE explained, with the help of the e-consult application, the pathology, surgical intervention, postoperative consequences and potential drug treatments to a cohort of 61 patients admitted for consultation. At the end of the consultation, all the patients received a PDF sheet or an email containing the diagrams constructed in collaboration with the surgeon. Using a questionnaire, we evaluated the satisfaction of the patients. Results: The computer tool was popular with the majority of patients. Regarding the information on the surgical procedure, 86% of the patients judged them as very good, 80% judged the information on adjuvant treatment (radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy) as very good and 89% were very satisfied with the information given by the doctor. For the computer tool, 81% of patients found the illustrations very clear, 79% found that the application is a very good help to understanding and 89% found that the interaction with the doctor is sufficient. During the consultation, 100% of the patients were able to ask the desired questions, and 97% think that this computer tool completes the information. For the submitted document, 100% of the patients found it very clear and 100% found that it meets the expectations of the patients. Discussion: E-consult is a unique app created to improve the quality of information delivered to patients during the consultation. The doctor can prove that the information was delivered to the patient, through the development of a PDF during the consultation. A video demonstration is available with the following link: Play the video . Conclusions: e-health is becoming more and more important in medicine. Patients are becoming more connected. E-consult improves the quality of the information received in a simple and personalized way, it is the first application, available at will, designed to improve the understanding of patients. This application integrates with each step in the patient care path.
