Cancer treatment is complex and involves many challenges for patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers. In recent years, digital health interventions have emerged as valuable tools to support patients throughout their cancer care experience. The Digital Innovations in Cancer Care survey conducted by the Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC) provides insights into how digital health

The acute hospital at home (HaH) program is a healthcare model where patients receive acute care services in their homes rather than in a traditional hospital setting.  The concept of HaH has evolved, driven by advancements in medical technology, changes in healthcare delivery models, and a focus on patient-centered care. Acute hospital at home programs

Remote patient management (RPM) technologies are emerging as powerful tools for improving cardiac patient care outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. Two recent developments highlight the growing importance and effectiveness of cardiac remote patient monitoring. The first development we will discuss in this article is a comprehensive new resource from the American College of Cardiology (ACC).

Biometric data is key in managing chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. Remote health technologies can be used to track biometric data and serve as an early warning system for complications in liver disease patients. This article discusses remote patient monitoring for cirrhosis and describes current research into patient satisfaction, reduced hospital readmissions, and quality of

In critical care nephrology, remote kidney monitoring is bridging the gap between hospital-based intensive care and post-discharge patient management. This approach enhances how acute kidney injury (AKI) cases are handled both during hospitalization and in the crucial weeks following discharge. In this article, we’ll explore remote kidney monitoring in critical care settings and how it
