Surgical ‘PreHab’ program uses digital pathways for better post-op recovery

Written by Pulse+IT| | Australian eHealth

The Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN) has launched a new program aimed at enhancing the post-operative recovery of surgical patients through pre-operative digital pathways.

Dubbed the My PreHab program, the surgical ‘prehabilitation’ system uses digital patient pathways from SA-based digital health vendor Personify Care to guide referred patients to self-screen for manageable risk factors and take simple steps to optimise their health before surgery, in collaboration with their GPs.
