n8n Post-Surgery Patient Triage & Follow-up System with Gemini AI, Telegram & Google Suite

This n8n workflow automates a post-surgery patient triage and follow-up system. It leverages Telegram for patient interaction, Google Sheets for data management, and Google Gemini AI for intelligent message processing and response generation.

The system is designed to streamline communication with patients after surgery, categorize their messages based on urgency or type, and provide appropriate responses or escalate issues when necessary.

What it does

1. Triggers on Telegram Messages: Listens for incoming messages from patients via a configured Telegram bot.
2. Processes Incoming Messages:
   • Extracts relevant information from the Telegram message.
   • Uses a Code node to potentially format or enrich the message data.
3. Routes Messages Based on Content (AI Triage):
   • Employs an AI Agent (likely powered by Google Gemini Chat Model) to analyze the patient's message.
   • The AI Agent determines the nature or urgency of the message, potentially categorizing it (e.g., "Urgent", "Follow-up", "Information Request").
4. Conditional Logic for Follow-up:
   • A Switch node, based on the AI Agent's output, directs the workflow down different paths.
   • An If node further refines the routing, possibly checking for specific keywords or conditions.
5. Logs Data to Google Sheets: Records patient interactions and triage results in a Google Sheet for tracking and auditing purposes.
6. Sends Automated Telegram Responses: Depending on the triage outcome, sends appropriate automated responses back to the patient via Telegram.
7. Schedules Follow-up Actions (Implicit): While not explicitly shown with a connected node, the presence of a Schedule Trigger suggests the workflow might also initiate scheduled follow-ups or checks (e.g., daily check-ins with patients).

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

• n8n Instance: A running n8n instance.
• Telegram Bot: A configured Telegram bot token and chat ID.
• Google Account: Access to Google Sheets with a spreadsheet configured for patient data.
• Google Gemini AI: Access to Google Gemini through a credential configured in n8n for the Google Gemini Chat Model node.

Setup/Usage

1. Import the Workflow: Download the workflow JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
2. Configure Credentials:
   • Telegram Trigger & Telegram Node: Set up your Telegram Bot API credentials.
   • Google Sheets Node: Configure your Google Sheets credentials, linking to the specific spreadsheet and sheet where patient data will be stored.
   • Google Gemini Chat Model: Set up your Google Gemini API credentials.
3. Customize AI Agent: Review and customize the AI Agent node's prompt and tools to accurately triage patient messages according to your specific post-surgery protocols.
4. Adjust Logic Nodes: Modify the Switch and If nodes to define the routing logic based on the AI's output and your desired follow-up procedures.
5. Activate the Workflow: Once all credentials are set and configurations are complete, activate the workflow. It will start listening for messages on your Telegram bot.
