Form'H@d : Healthcare data systems - home care solutions

Form’H@D is a solution digitizing at source all information entered into the paper file available at the patient's bedside. 

Kayentis is behind a "unique electronic and paper solution for hospitalization at home" called form'H@D. It combines the best of the physical and digital worlds. ‏‎‏form'H@D offers a simple and intuitive tool enabling all professionals involved in the care pathway to connect to each other using pen and paper.

Form'H@D collects, manages and secures the data of a patient maintained or hospitalized at home. This information is entered into the patient’s file using the digital pen and transmitted, either through a PC linked to the internet, or a telephone in Bluetooth mode. The information written by the care staff is stored in the pen and is then transferred in a secured mode to a web server for validation before automatically transmitting it to the HH's information system.

Form'H@D allows an HH or any other home care set-up to operate: all the procedures recorded at the patient's home are monitored and archived in the hospital's information system.

The technology used by the digital pen and paper is fully adapted to this type of situation. It optimizes not only the gathering of the data since it is an intuitive and general tool, but also the quality of these data. It is currently the best method of excluding nobody and thereby speeds up the adoption of new technologies applied to the health sector.

form'H@D offers the following characteristics, particularly useful for HH: 

• Handwritten data entry of patient information into a paper file using a digital pen
• Information that may be shared depending on assigned access rights
• The filled-out forms are collated in a liaison folder that can be consulted by all the relevant medical and welfare professionals.
• Management of alerts in critical situations
• Interoperability with all other personal medical file systems, patient files, xml exports, CDISC etc.
• Professional forms' management: Monitoring of vital signs, Management of prescriptions, Observation notebooks, Transmittal forms, Care books, Therapeutic education, Management of informed consents, Visit reports etc.

 This solution has the following main advantages: 

• Time saving for the health professionals. The information written by hand onto a paper form is added in full to the electronic patient file with no re-entering of data.
• Ease of use. The current work process is preserved. The forms remain identical. Changes required are minor (excessively reduced training time), unlike tablet or laptop type IT solutions ...
• Practical aspects: Reduced level of maintenance, maximization of availability time, no bulky devices, a limitation of the risk of breakage and theft ...
