Saint Peter's University has tapped Vox Telehealth to help the New Brunswick, N.J.-based hospital incorporate virtual care services with its enhanced recovery after surgery program, according to a Dec. 10 news release.
Saint Peter's, which is part of Saint Peter's Healthcare, will initially roll out Vox Telehealth's remote monitoring programs within its obstetrics and gynecology department.
The programs will provide St. Peter's patients who have undergone a C-Section or hysterectomy with preoperative education, coordination and pre-screening assessments to ensure each patient is prepared for their surgical procedure. The programs will also monitor each patient throughout their recovery through daily symptomatic observations and a corresponding alert escalation and notification system.
