Background: Close follow up of postoperative orthopedic and pectus excavatum surgical patients discharged with a nerve catheter is required to ensure adequate pain management and recognize medication toxicity. Assessing ambulatory pediatric patients using a smartphone application is convenient and effective. Methods: A novel Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) program was developed to improve follow-up and ability to assess postoperative pain management, analgesic toxicity, and catheter site. Adherence and successful graduation were measured to determine the success of the program. Additionally, patient and caregiver experience and opioid use were measured. Interventions: Patients were enrolled in RPM postoperatively for four days. The RPM nursing team reviewed patient reported data in real-time to address concerns and develop a plan of care. Pain management education was provided via video prior to removing the nerve catheter. Results: Adherence to RPM is over 90% for both populations, with 82% success rate in orthopedic patients and 93% success rate in pectus excavatum patients. Experience scores have been high, and opioid prescriptions have been reduced by half for the orthopedic population. Conclusions: RPM is an effective tool used to manage pediatric postoperative orthopedic and pectus excavatum surgical patients with significant patient and caregiver buy-in.
