About this trial
The purpose of the study is to develop and evaluate a new model for across services interaction with the use of welfare technology and telemedicine. The model includes innovative and new routines for the exchange of patient information, quality systems and procedures between the municipality and the hospital. This model will first be tested for use in intravenous antibiotic therapy. The results of the study will be used to further develop the service. In the larger context, it is desirable to provide knowledge that is transferable to other diagnostic groups, treatment methods and geographical areas.
