Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective qualitative and quantitative controlled study, exploring the impact of patient centred digital prescriptions on health, in patients with chronic health conditions.


Clinical Trial Description

ScalaMed is an innovative new consumer centred solution for securing prescriptions through a blockchain solution - a cryptographic distributed database, that can give consumer access to their prescriptions at all times. It aims to solve interoperability challenges that exist in healthcare, by creating a ledger of prescriptions, and giving consumers access to this information to own and share as they need. The solution will be accessed through an application available on a smart phone, will be fully compliant with security and privacy laws, and will be made available to consumers, clinicians, and pharmacies enrolled in this study free of charge. The system also allows patients to monitor the usage of their prescriptions - eg when they need a new one, and allows them to choose how and where they want to use their prescriptions like with paper.

This study will explore whether empowering consumers with their digital prescriptions in a digital format through a blockchain based methodology of storing and accessing their data, will improve the flow of clinically important information, improve the frequency of data sharing, improve the self-management of the patient, improve adherence to treatments, reduce interactions and adverse events associated with medications, reduce the burden on clinical practice, improve efficiency, reduce the amount of paper, increase consumer engagement and improve patient satisfaction. ;
