Onboarding and offboarding

Getting started
Onboarding Process:
The doctor, as PI, onboards the patient in a face-to-face meeting, providing the patient with instructions for Avatr use.
If there is any technical problem during the patient’s use following the face-to-face meeting, the patient contacts their doctor who acts on behalf of the patient. The doctor only will liaise with Avatr technical support if necessary.
Only identified Avatr technical team members, working under confidentiality agreement, will have access rights to clear any technical matters under instruction by the patient's doctor.

Inavya ventures provides 2 days on site training with the acquisition of the licence.
Inavya ventures will also provide user documentation for both doctor dashboard and patient chatbot, as well as 6 hours of online training.
Additional training can be provided, charged at SFIA rate card rates.

It also generates alerts based on generic or personalised metrics decided by the practician. The doctor can also share the AVATR with his medical team. It is also possible for the patient to communicate with the doctor via the chatbot through controlled and pre-defined topics that trigger an automated or direct response.
Accessibility testing
The interface testing has taken place with medical teams in leading heart centers in Singapore (National Heart Center), Brazil (Sao Paulo University Hospital), Frankfurt (University Hospital). In the UK, the technology has been demonstrated and is being presented to the ethics committee for a future test on patients.
The interface/technology testing outside of the UK covers the following studies:
1- Pre-post operation patient remote management: The hypothesis to be validated quality of care following discharge and the impact on health outcomes and readmission rates.
2- Careplan compliance: The hypothesis being tested is that AVATR improves compliance to care plans thereby providing positive outcomes such as improved quality of life, cost savings, patient engagement.
3- Comorbidities monitoring and medical teams collaborations: The ambition AVATR as a platform to facilitate knowledge transfer and collaboration by clinicians across leading hospitals globally.
