Any comments? (Comments added to a free-text field are shown below) I regret not being admitted to the hospital as I think that I would not have transmitted the infection to my wife. This telemanagement system saved efforts, costs, and time. I think that the time spent with the therapist needs to be more frequent. The system could be more helpful if it would send periodic information often about my status by informing me if I am getting better or worse.	4 (7)	48 (86)	4 (7)
