PD Telecare Remote Patient Support Service


What is PD Telecare?

PD Telecare provides proactive technical support to patients and actionable insights to clinicians. For patients with Sharesource-enabled cyclers, Vantive’s PD Telecare service team remotely monitors patient treatment data during the first 180 days of a patient's PD therapy.

How does PD Telecare work?

A dedicated Vantive PD Telecare nurse reviews Sharesource alert /alarm/ trend data from Amia and Homechoice Claria APD cyclers to identify whether an enrolled patient needs additional technique or training support.

As training opportunities are identified, a Vantive technical support representative will call the patient with training- and technique-related support.

In parallel, a PD Telecare nurse notifies the patient’s clinic PD nurse of potential clinical issues, and the clinic PD nurse decides on appropriate clinical intervention. The clinic nurse also receives a monthly report summarizing all PD Telecare interactions with their patients.
