Clinical Trial Summary

The project proposes to evaluate the interest of the UroConnect remote monitoring Medical Device (DM) to optimize patient support and nursing coordination


Clinical Trial Description

Kidney cancer represents 2 to 3% of solid cancers in adults. Worldwide, an estimated 431,288 people a year are diagnosed with kidney cancer. Each year, in France, 13,500 patients undergo total or partial nephrectomy. The development of minimally invasive surgical techniques and the structuring of innovative care pathways for the management of renal tumors in Enhanced Rehabilitation After Surgery (RAAC) and even on an outpatient basis have led to a significant reduction in the length of stays. The physiognomy of the course of care for patients operated on for a renal tumor is completely modified and generates for the patient a feeling of deterioration in the quality of care and disruption of medical follow-up. The objective is to deploy a model for coordinating the perioperative care pathway of patients who have undergone nephrectomy for renal tumor in several French centers in order to assess the impact for patients, caregivers and the health system. This coordination would lead to the formalization of a nurse coordinator job profile adapted to the specificities of oncological surgery and the tools necessary for its implementation. The UroConnect device has a "patient" interface for presenting self-questionnaires and access to a library of educational content and a "caregiver" interface to rationalize and optimize the nurse's activity of perioperative coordination in his task. ;
