ITAREPS presents a mobile phone-based telemedicine solution for weekly remote patient monitoring and disease management in schizophrenia and psychotic disorders in general. The programme provides health professionals with home telemonitoring via a PC-to-phone SMS platform that identifies prodromal symptoms of relapse, to enable early intervention and prevent unnecessary hospitalizations. Its web-based interface offers the authorized physician a longitudinal analysis of the dynamics and development of possible prodromes. Previous one-year clinical evaluation of the programme effectiveness in 45 patients with psychotic disorder showed significant 60% decrease in the number of hospitalizations.

This work presents data from a two-year mirror-design follow-up evaluation of the programme's clinical effectiveness in 100 patients with psychotic illness.
