Description
OnTheDOT aims to improve access to dialysis for those living along the Swiss-Italian border, with the goal of reducing mortality and comorbidities. The initiative seeks to decentralize hospital care by shifting it toward local community centers and patients’ homes. This is achieved by standardizing clinical data collection in peripheral facilities and introducing digital decision-support systems to personalize therapies. Furthermore, the project includes a cross-border telemedicine pilot study, training activities for healthcare personnel, and the definition of protocols for the home care of stable or terminally ill patients.
Operation co-financed by the European Union, European Regional Development Fund, the Italian State, Revolving Fund, the Swiss Confederation and the Cantons within the framework of the Interreg VI-A Italy-Switzerland Cooperation Programme
