Monitoring People With COVID-19 at Home With the COVIDFree@Home Program: Feasibility Cohort Study
Patients with acute COVID-19 infection engaged with a remote home monitoring platform, however, not at the recommended frequency or duration. Remote patient monitoring of acute respiratory infection appears viable and can offer patients reassurance. It has the potential to reduce strain on the health care system during future pandemics, but further evidence is required to demonstrate improved health outcomes.
