Study Summary
Children with medical complexity (CMC) are the most vulnerable of children with chronic diseases, who have complex, multisystem chronic diseases affecting ≥3 organ systems, severe functional limitations and technology dependencies. CMC have high health care needs, and account for 40% of hospitalized children and 35% of all pediatric health care costs. Due to high medical fragility, CMC have frequent acute deteriorations superimposed on their chronic conditions, leading to recurrent emergency department (ED)/hospital admissions and affecting quality of life (QOL). To reduce ED/hospital admissions for CMC, remote monitoring is suggested, with use of mHealth apps to regularly assess their health status remotely and identify early signs of acute deterioration, allowing for early interventions to prevent ED/hospital admissions. Yet no app to support remote monitoring of CMC exists. Variable, multisystem conditions among CMC make it difficult to develop an app. Also, many CMC are at high-risk for health care inequities, with minorities having higher unmet needs, but the impacts of health care inequities and social determinants of health (SDOH) on ED/hospital admissions in CMC are rarely studied. Fortunately, ED/hospital admissions for CMC are often preceded by a limited set of shared (crosscutting) acute symptoms. These crosscutting symptoms rarely occur suddenly. Studies suggest that they usually start as subtle signs, often unnoticed by parents until they escalate to prompt an ED/hospital visit. Thus, crosscutting symptoms offer an opportunity for a novel and practical approach for developing a remote monitoring app for CMC, despite their multiple, variable underlying conditions. In a focus group, parents identified the crosscutting symptoms that most often preceded their children's hospital admissions, and conveyed their needs, preferences and key functionalities that led to MyChildCMC, the first app designed to monitor and identify early signs of crosscutting symptoms
