Luscii provides the tools for patient and professional to keep an eye on the recovery while checking vital signs and symptoms to signal deteriorations and intervene timely in case of need.
What is the aim of the program?
- Fewer outpatient clinic visits
- Accurate and early interventions
- Better care experience by patients
- Serve the growing number of patients with the same number of nurses
How does it work?
Asthma patients are provided with the Luscii app which allows them to fill out the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) based on their personalised protocol. In addition, they fill out two questions on their medication adherence and the use of extra medication. Moreover, they will perform spirometry and FeNO tests at home. In case of deviation of their measurements the CWZ medical service center contacts the patient through video calling to give further guidance. If needed, the patient is escalated to a (virtual) consultation with the health care professionals of the pulmonology department.

This app works good, it feels that the treatment method and consultation are always close by. Or that you can consult with the lung specialist if there are complaints that may require other medication.

Early anticipation
More insight in their disease burden for patients. Early signalling of increase in symptoms and to be able to give advice at the right moment.

Very good method! The contact lines are very short and I experience that as very pleasant.
