Abstract

Introduction

The NHS long term plan endorses ‘personalised’, ‘digitally enabled’, ‘out of hospital’ care. Multiagency guidance (CPOC(2021)/NICE(2021)/GIRFT(2021)/NHSX(2021)) advocates an integrated ‘pathway’ approach to information sharing, shared-decision making and patient support. Digital solutions are the vehicle to deliver these agendas.

Methods

In 2018 we developed a digital joint pathway (DJP) spanning the surgical care pathway (prehabilitation to rehabilitation) using the GoWellHealth platform. Patients listed for joint replacement are offered the DJP as routine care. Activity and engagement are monitored using the DJP data library. We sought to evidence our DJP by assessing patient engagement, experience and outcomes (OKS/EQ5D/Readmission).
