This study evaluates the feasibility of providing hospital-level care at home for eligible patients through a Virtual Ward. Patients are discharged early from the hospital and monitored remotely using digital vital sign monitoring and anamnesis questionnaires. The primary aim is to determine if at least 30% of eligible patients can be safely and successfully transferred to the Virtual Ward under current Dutch healthcare conditions.

Acute pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas which causes abdominal pain and is the most common gastro-intestinal reason for acute hospitalization in Western countries. Because care for patients with a mild acute pancreatitis is mostly supportive, providing this care in the home environment may be feasible with the use of remote monitoring. This might reduce the demand for hospital beds and allow patients to benefit from recovering in their home environment. Therefore, the objective of this single center study is to assess the feasibility of a novel care program in which patients with a predicted mild course of acute pancreatitis are discharged early with remote home monitoring. Patients, with a predicted mild course of acute pancreatitis. Patients with prior acute pancreatitis within 3 months or a chronic pancreatitis are excluded from participation. Patients should be ≥18 years of age. The goal is to include a total of 70 patients. After at least 48 hours of hospital admission, patients are discharged early with the use of remote home monitoring. At home, patients receive guidance for the management of pain, nutrition and pancreatitis-related complaints by a daily phone call from a nurse from the Virtual Monitoring Centre (VMC). The pancreatitis-related complaints, intake of fluids and food, pain and the use of analgesics are assessed using short questionnaires in a smartphone app. Core temperature is monitored using an ear thermometer and a wearable sensor measures heart rate, respiratory rate, posture and movement every 5 minutes. Remote home monitoring will continue for at least 4 days. The main study objective is to assess the feasibility of the novel care program. Feasibility is determined by, patient satisfaction and actual use of the novel care program. The secondary study objective is to describe clinical outcomes of patients in the novel care program.
