Patients will be included and assigned randomly to each group using an informatics program until 100 patients are reached in each arm of the study ("n" total = 200 patients) The main and secondary outcomes will be evaluated 30 days after the date of the follow-up.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a parallel group clinical trial comparing two types of follow-up in patients operated and treated in a General and GI surgery department. Face-to-face vs telematic follow-up by using a platform that offers videoconferencing will be compared.

The hypothesis is that a follow-up based on a telematic visit will no add extra comorbidities while could reduce costs and increase patients satisfaction.

Patients will be included and assigned randomly to each group using an informatics program until 100 patients are reached in each arm of the study ("n" total = 200 patients) Information regarding the type of follow-up and the instructions to perform the telematic visit will be provided to patients before discharge. The follow-up date will be set according to the established protocol for each type of pathology.

In case of clinical complications patients will be referred to the emergency department or will be visited in face-to-face basis.

The main and secondary outcomes will be evaluated 30 days after the date of the follow-up. ;
