Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Rate of patients without failure to the e-follow-up. A failure is defined by absence of connection to the electronic tool and the mismatch between the alert level and severity of complications.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Patient satisfaction to the e-follow-up.
Satisfaction will be evaluated by questionnaire.
The rate of patients who discontinue the study 8 days before the surgery.
The number of unplanned visits into the Center after ambulatory surgery in the first 24 hours and during the first 30 days will be assessed for each patient.
Rate of patients with at least one unplanned visit.
The time spent by the dedicated nurse for the follow-up protocol management.
It will be defined as the sum of the time spent at different stages: initial training of patients, tracking of the connections to the tool, tracking of the alerts and telephone contacts.
