Patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 at Alfred Health and Monash Health and are self-isolating at home are being monitoring remotely using an intelligent decision-support system called CovidCare, developed in association with Deakin University.

The University of Melbourne is also running a clinical trial of a remote monitoring solution – also called CovidCare – which is now actively recruiting respiratory clinics and general practices. Patients in self-isolation or quarantine are provided with an app to self-monitor their physical symptoms and to identify mental health needs.
