This project envisions the future of telemonitoring for peri-operative care. Through an extensive literature research and further expert and context exploration, a design strategy is created, as a starting point for the development of new services and technologies in healthcare around surgical environments. The design process with a strong focus on analysis guided the development of the project. This allowed the creation of a future vision that considers the findings from the literature, user and trend research and gives a direction to the current state. Within the creation of a future vision, different scenarios are detailed, to give a more detailed idea of how peri-operative care would be. In addition, some recommendations and future steps are presented, to facilitate the achievement of these future scenarios by providing the stakeholders involved with some tools to assess the viability of implementation and inclusion in planning. Finally, the project includes a call to action to develop technologies and services that enables the extension of care to the home context and the empowerment of patients to have a conscious and active role in maintaining and seeking their wellbeing.
