(1/6) The "Pandemic Response Network: Duke Community Health Watch" study is live: https://covidwatch.dukehealth.org/  It involves a 28 day symptom monitoring program with 3 major safety and monitoring features built in. 1) Participants are presented info in real-time about symptom severity..

(2/6) and the potential need to seek medical attention; 2) Participants who report severe symptoms or become unresponsive receive telephone follow up from nurses and medical students mobilized to support this effort; 3) Every participant provides an emergency contact...

(3/6) and is asked to consent to calling the emergency contact if the participant is unresponsive for 48 hours. We're targeting 4 groups: 1) ppl with symptoms; 2) ppl with COVID-19 testing; 3) ppl with confirmed COVID-19; 4) ppl concerned about exposure to COVID-19...

(4/6) You don't need to have symptoms or COVID-19 testing to participate. No geographic restrictions and no age restrictions. This is an open resource to everyone. It's built on REDCap, a tool used by public health departments for COVID-19 tracking in places across the country

(5/6) We're trying to specifically support #HealthcareHeroes on the front lines and the ppl they live with. The symptom surveys and alerts were built with @DukeHealth @DukeMedSchool leaders in infectious diseases, critical care, cardiology, and primary care..

(6/6) This is the product of deep alignment of clinical research and pop health infrastructure to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Built w/ leaders from @dukemedicine @DukeHealth @DukeCardiology @manesh_patelMD @duke_pophealth @DukeMedSchool @kevin_p_shah Please help share!
