Urological surgeries such as prostatectomy or TURP are among the most common procedures and are explained thousands of times a year. electronic patient education with modern audiovisual media, integrated patient history forms, electronic signatures and automated documentation can make education processes in clinics and practices more effective and patient-focused. In addition, the MAIA platform makes it possible to integrate patient reported outcome measures (PROM) or other medical surveys into the electronic process.
Films and 3D animations for urological patient education
Visualisations such as 3D animations have been proven to increase patient compliance. We have analysed this specifically for urology in our own study (AniMedical KG, 2012). A survey of around 50 urological patients showed significantly improved knowledge and greater acceptance of the procedure when using video-information instead of paper information sheets. Based on this result, MAIA uses primarily low-threshold audiovisual media, such as films and 3D animations.

- Radical prostatectomy
- Educational film ureterorenoscopy
- TURB (M+F)
- TURP

Electronic data capture of patient reported outcomes (PROM)
The MAIA platform is a perfect tool to send patient questionnaires , such as electronic patient reported outcome measures (ePRO). As a service provider, we implement any content clinicians need (e.g. PROMs as well as customised study designs). Special advantages are:
- Electronic data capture (EDC)
- Automated sending and harmonisation of data, even for long-term studies
- One-click data export
- Handy dashboards to manage patient data and visualise scores and trends
- Improvement of response rates

How does it work (urological patient education with MAIA)?
MAIA can be integrated with HIS/PMS or other applications for appointment scheduling. This allows the information to be sent automatically. Patients receive a personalised link via email or text message. The digital education can be completed on any browser-enabled device (smartphone, tablet, PC).

The platform's usability and navigation are very simple. However, if it is not possible to complete the information digitally, a fallback procedure with a paper information sheet can be initiated at the touch of a button and at no extra cost.

The completed forms are transferred to the PVS or HIS. A report is available during the information session, which serves as a guide for the doctor. Normally, only specific questions and risks need to be clarified here. Notes can be added digitally to the report.
