The results are compiled in a centralised platform which makes it possible to provide recommendations on the next steps to take.<\/p>\n<p>The project \u201ctargets comprehensive care for ophthalmological patients using remote diagnostic support tools which also enhance healthcare coordination between primary care and the hospital,\u201d points out Miralles.<\/p>\n<p>These results are additionally entered into an ophthalmological medical record which will be made available to patients\u2019 existing medical records in the hospital information system and in Catalonia\u2019s electronic public health systems such as \u2018My Health\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe test can be used as an independent self-assessment,\u201d adds Pere Plaja, director of Innovation and Research at the Salut Empord\u00e0 Foundation. \u201cHowever, the idea is to build it into the ophthalmology care pathway to fast-track specialist appointments where needed and add to patient follow-up in the home setting whether actually at home or in primary care.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8l2Zy99n_LU\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">YOU CAN WATCH THE APP\u2019S VIDEO HERE<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":120537,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[420,742,2284,743],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-121085","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-e-health-en","category-fires-en","category-health","category-press-notes-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
