The AfterCareApp® connects patients, clinics and attending physicians in aftercare.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in the female population and affects almost one in eight women. The probability of developing the disease increases with age, which is, why almost 1/3 of all women over 50 are affected.
Cases of breast cancer have doubled since the 1980s, which goes along with the general increase in life expectancy.
The disease, which tends to relapse or spread in difficult cases, is now also increasingly being diagnosed in younger women. Unfortunately, increasingly with forms more difficult to treat.The recording of aftercare ensures that the long-term benefit of the therapy for the patient is proven.
In addition to the primary therapy, aftercare also includes documentation of subsequent therapies. The value of each surgery performed is documented long-term with aftercare.
The aftercare information is made available to the certification bodies in anonymised form and is evaluated as an important feature for re-certification.As breast cancer can become active again even years after surgery, patients need long-term support.
In order to provide patients with the best possible treatment, most countries have started to require surgical clinics to be certified by independent auditing bodies. This ensures that the best procedures are made available to patients with the most suitable means and surgeons.
The AfterCareApp® can also be made available to patients during therapy. It supports and helps to ensure the connection to the doctors in charge even in difficult situations.
In this way, side effects of the therapy can be easily monitored and, if an intervention is necessary, patients can be put in touch with their carers quickly and easily.
The integration of the AfterCareApp® into the existing hospital infrastructure can be realised with little effort. Contact us for more information using the following online form or send us an e-mail to info@aftercareapp.ch:
