HEALTH SCREENING AND SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT TOOLS
Product Clinicians are provided with access cards which are distributed to clients as they begin a treatment program. Upon logging on, the system generates a unique account for each individual. A valid e-mail account is optional but, if entered, enables the system to send weekly reminders to patients to complete measures. Accordingly, no personal information is required. The Symptom Tracker system is extremely flexible and can be configured to administer any number of questionnaires, in different languages, and at different time frames (weekly, daily, monthly), irrespective of the respondent (parent, child or professional). Upon completion of the scheduled questionnaires, the system generates a one-page report plotting symptom scores over time. The report can be directed to the clinic or can be printed immediately by the patient to facilitate compliance and minimize clinic workloads. Purpose Symptom Tracker was designed to facilitate assessing patient outcomes in real-time providing clinicians with concise reports that summarize progress, baseline test scores, as well as adverse responses to treatment if desired. This tool can also help agencies and organizations conduct meaningful outcome evaluations of their programs and services. Background The system is being developed and implemented by researchers at the University of Ottawa, the Centre, Dalhousie University, Queen’s University and the University of Auckland.
