Real World Evidence to Assess the Value of a Digital Care Coordination and Monitoring Program for Supporting Caregivers of Adults Discharged From the Emergency Department.

The RW-HOMECARE study is a prospective, longitudinal, real-world pilot trial designed to assess the impact of proposing the Monka digital solution to non-professional caregivers of patients discharged from emergency or short-stay units. The primary objective is to measure changes in caregiver burden using the ZBI-12 scale at baseline, 30 days, and 90 days. Secondary objectives include evaluating caregivers' physical and mental quality of life (SF-12), patient frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale), and the incidence of adverse events such as emergency visits, unplanned hospitalizations, falls, institutionalization, and death within 90 days. The study also examines the usability, acceptability, and satisfaction with Monka digital solution through standardized questionnaires, the correlation between algorithm-generated vulnerability scores and established measures, and reasons for non-adoption. Eligible dyads (patient and caregiver) are recruited at discharge from emergency or short-stay units. After informed consent, caregivers receive free access to Monka digital solution for 3 months, along with a user guide. Follow-up assessments are conducted by phone at Day 30 and Day 90 (±14 days). All interventions by the coordinating nurse are tracked and analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively.
