ClinConnect Summary

The "Smart Family Doctor" trial is looking at how a digital health management tool, powered by artificial intelligence, can help improve the control of high blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol levels in patients who have recently undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. The study will involve around 536 participants from 5 to 10 hospitals and aims to see if this technology can make it easier for patients to manage their health after surgery.

To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and have had CABG surgery. You should also have a history of high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol. If your blood pressure is above certain levels, your blood sugar level (measured by HbA1c) is too high, or your cholesterol levels are not in the healthy range, you may qualify. Participants will need to use a smartphone and provide informed consent to join. This trial is not yet recruiting, so there is no need to take action just yet, but it offers an exciting opportunity to potentially improve health outcomes for patients in similar situations.
