Bringing the hospital to your living room: rural care breakthrough tested
NCT ID NCT05256303
Summary
This study tested whether providing full hospital-level medical care in patients' own homes is a safe and effective alternative to traditional hospital stays for rural adults. It involved 160 adults with serious but manageable conditions like severe infections, heart failure, COPD, and diabetes complications. Researchers compared the costs, safety, and patient outcomes of home-based hospital care against standard hospital admission.
