Study Arms (2)

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Usual care and usual communication with health professional

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

They will be trained to use the ti.care platform and will be able to use it as a communication channel for any questions or clarification they require during the time elapsed between routine control visits. This platform will be a complement to the visits, but in no case will it replace them or be used as a diagnostic or therapeutic method. The platform does not have any treatment algorithm and only aims to facilitate communication between the patient at home and the health professional, both the doctor and the nurse educator. It will be used in a preventive and advisory manner for the patient for follow-up. In no case it will be used for emergencies. Daily during working hours from Monday to Friday, health professionals will review patient requests and respond to them.
