Different patient needs? Guided solutions.
Respiratory diseases are amongst the greatest causes of death and disability. They are often mis-diagnosed or not treated with disease management guidelines which can be overlooked in busy clinical practice.
By getting it right the first time, our decision support software solutions help guide practitioners through patient consultations resulting in improved healthcare outcomes and potential large financial savings to the NHS.
Guided Consultation
LungHealth software provides a full, consistent, algorithm-guided consultation in line with current guidelines used to deliver both face-to-face AND remote patient review. It prompts clinicians to consider guidelines during patient reviews as they make patient care decisions.
Accurate Diagnosis
Our software has been extensively validated in studies and provides an effective safety-net against misdiagnosis, prompting the user to consider potential co-morbidities and to tailor treatment according to their patient’s individual disease severity and symptoms.
Improved Lives
By achieving accurate diagnoses and appropriate guideline management, LungHealth software allows practices to help their patients achieve optimal disease control and quality of life.
Guided Care for Asthma
Our intelligent software ensures that asthma diagnosis is confirmed and aims to abolish patients’ symptoms. Those with straightforward asthma with good control can be seen quickly and efficiently, while those with more complex disease or poor control are directed toward more detailed assessment. This includes a review of current therapy, inhaler technique and concordance with therapy. Further investigation and specialist review is recommended for patients with ongoing symptoms.
Guided Care for COPD
Disease management modules cover initial diagnosis, annual review, interim review and an exacerbation review. Educational material can be printed from the system to provide to patients. And each patient receives a personal crisis action plan and a printed summary of their consultation.
Emphasis is on adjusting therapy (pharmacological and non pharmacological) to maintain active living and to prevent the need for emergency admissions.
