Status Quo:

Healthcare providers often capture only a brief snapshot of a patient’s health during visits, missing out on data that could provide a more comprehensive understanding of disease progression. This gap limits the ability of health researchers to learn from patients' experiences.

What We Study:

NExUS-Health is a multi-year prospective study inviting UMass Memorial Health patients with chronic diseases to participate. The study uses sensor data from participants' smart devices to identify signals of acute care needs and other indicators of worsening health.

How We Innovate:

NExUS-Health allows participants to:

  • Bring Their Own Device: Pair their smart devices with the MyDataHelps app by CareEvolution.
  • Log Symptoms: Track symptoms and view trends related to their chronic conditions.
  • Complete Surveys: Periodically report on outcomes affecting their quality of life, enhancing insights into chronic disease management.
