Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app called Medidux can help patients with common complaints like cough, back pain, or belly pain avoid returning to the hospital after they are discharged. About 417 adults will either use the app to track symptoms for a week or receive standard care. Researchers will compare how many people in each group need to come back to the hospital or see another doctor within 7 days.
