Effectiveness of Telephone Monitoring in Primary Care to Detect Pneumonia and Associated Risk Factors in Patients with SARS-CoV-2

Improved technology facilitates the acceptance of telemedicine. The aim was to analyze the effectiveness of telephone follow-up to detect severe SARS-CoV-2 cases that progressed to pneumonia. A prospective cohort study with 2-week telephone follow-up was carried out March 1 to May 4, 2020, in a prim...

The aim was to analyze the effectiveness of telephone follow-up to detect severe SARS-CoV-2 cases that progressed to pneumonia. A prospective cohort study with 2-week telephone follow-up was carried out March 1 to May 4, 2020, in a primary healthcare center in Barcelona. Individuals aged ≥15 years with symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 were included. Outpatients with non-severe disease were called on days 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 after diagnosis; patients with risk factors for pneumonia received daily calls through day 5 and then the regularly scheduled calls. Patients hospitalized due to pneumonia received calls on days 1, 3, 7 and 14 post-discharge. Of the 453 included patients, 435 (96%) were first attended to at a primary healthcare center. The 14-day follow-up was completed in 430 patients (99%), with 1798 calls performed. Of the 99 cases of pneumonia detected (incidence rate 20.8%), one-third appeared 7 to 10 days after onset of SARS-CoV-2 symptoms. Ten deaths due to pneumonia were recorded. Telephone follow-up by a primary healthcare center was effective to detect SARS-CoV-2 pneumonias and to monitor related complications. Thus, telephone appointments between a patient and their health care practitioner benefit both health outcomes and convenience.Jose Miguel Baena-DíezIsabel Gonzalez-CasafontSara Cordeiro-CoelhoSoledad Fernández-GonzálezMigdalia Rodríguez-JorgeClara Uxía Fernández Pérez-TorresAndrea Larrañaga-CabreraManel García-LareoAna de la Arada-AcebesEsther Martín-JiménezAlmudena Pérez-OrceroRosario Hernández-IbáñezAna Gonzalo-VoltasNoemí Bermúdez-ChillidaConsuelo Simón-MuelaGuillermo del CarloCarolina Bayona-FaroCristina Rey-ReñonesIsabel Aguilar-PalacioMaría GrauMDPI AGarticleSARS-CoV-2COVID-19pneumoniaepidemiologytelemedicinetelehealthMedicineRENHealthcare, Vol 9, Iss 1548, p 1548 (2021)
