Communication for Rare Diseases

With the help of communication for Rare Diseases, doctors can be supported in the treatment of their patients through the provision of valuable information during diagnosis. This is done by comparing the existing symptoms with the clinical pictures of certain Rare Diseases. Precise parameter definitions active in the background ensure optimal context-sensitive control of the messages. 

So-called ‘orphan diseases’ often remain undetected in those affected. This is due not only to low levels of awareness, but also because the symptoms are often unspecific. In addition, medical professionals are usually quite inexperienced in dealing with these very diseases, which they encounter rarely and which affect only a few patients. This makes it particularly difficult for doctors to make a diagnosis. 

Communication for Rare Diseases can support general practitioners in precisely this area. The digital assistant is integrated into the CGM practice software. When new items are documented in electronic patient records, structured data such as diagnosis codes, biometric data or laboratory values are compared. If the configuration of the current case being treated matches the predefined criteria, the relevant information window is displayed on the doctor's screen – directly in the software. The doctor can now look at this more closely and will receive disease-specific information as a guide for the next steps. In the best case scenario, the diagnostic pathway for affected patients can be shortened considerably and suitable treatment provided more quickly.
