Home Health Care Providers’ Readiness to Care for Children and Youth With Complex Medical Conditions: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Home Health Care Providers’ Readiness to Care for Children and Youth With Complex Medical Conditions: Protocol for a Scoping Review

However, shifts in family preferences to receive care closer to home and rising health care costs have moved much of this care to home and community care settings [6-8]. In regions such as Ontario, Canada, home care services are funded and organized through the provincial government, specifically Ontario Health at Home [9].

The State of Remote Patient Monitoring for Chronic Disease Management in the United States

The State of Remote Patient Monitoring for Chronic Disease Management in the United States

Moving beyond the traditional model of in-person clinical encounters will empower health systems to expand access to care and create new opportunities to improve health outcomes. This paper examines remote patient monitoring (RPM) for chronic disease management in the United States, where its sustainability depends on uncertain health care payer support, despite a growing evidence base to support its benefits and appeal to users.

Personal Health Record Software for Neuroendocrine Tumors: Patient-Centered Design Approach

Personal Health Record Software for Neuroendocrine Tumors: Patient-Centered Design Approach

In order for PHR software to successfully play a data gathering role for research studies it needs to provide a valuable service to patients, otherwise patients are less likely to use it [9,13]. Ideally, PHR software used for research studies would follow a model similar to that followed by free online services: users get a valuable service in exchange for their personal data.

Provider Perspectives on Pediatric Store-and-Forward Teledermatology at Boston Medical Center: Cross-Sectional Survey

Provider Perspectives on Pediatric Store-and-Forward Teledermatology at Boston Medical Center: Cross-Sectional Survey

Access to pediatric dermatologists is limited by prolonged waiting times, limited appointments, and uneven geographic availability [1]. Provider-to-provider store-and-forward teledermatology (SAFTD), which allows referring providers to send images and clinical information to dermatologists for asynchronous evaluation, triage, and recommendations, alleviates these barriers [2,3].

The Value of Remote Vital Signs Monitoring in Detecting Clinical Deterioration in Patients in Hospital at Home Programs or Postacute Medical Patients in the Community: Systematic Review

The Value of Remote Vital Signs Monitoring in Detecting Clinical Deterioration in Patients in Hospital at Home Programs or Postacute Medical Patients in the Community: Systematic Review

Patients admitted to HAH are usually preselected to be more stable and at lower risk of deterioration [10]. Patients in HAH programs also tend to be ambulant and more active at home [11]. In addition, VSM in hospital wards is conducted by medically trained personnel, compared with patient or caregiver-initiated VSM in HAH.

Digital Mental Health Interventions for Young People Aged 16-25 Years: Scoping Review

Digital Mental Health Interventions for Young People Aged 16-25 Years: Scoping Review

Differences in gender and age are also present as males are more likely to receive a diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder compared to females, while females are more likely to be diagnosed with depression compared to males, and adolescents are more susceptible than children to affective disorders and behavior disorders [5]. It is worrying that only 58% of young adults aged 18-25 years with severe mental disorders are accessing treatment [6].

Examining Demographic, Geographic, and Temporal Patterns of Melanoma Incidence in Texas From 2000 to 2018: Retrospective Study

Examining Demographic, Geographic, and Temporal Patterns of Melanoma Incidence in Texas From 2000 to 2018: Retrospective Study

One strategy to shift melanoma detection from late to earlier stages is to increase screening via dermatologists. However, many regions of Texas lack access to dermatologists [10,11]. Alternatively, primary care providers (PCPs) may provide essential skin-cancer detection services [12], yet significant training barriers often preclude early skin cancer diagnosis by PCPs [13].

Are Treatment Services Ready for the Use of Big Data Analytics and AI in Managing Opioid Use Disorder?

Are Treatment Services Ready for the Use of Big Data Analytics and AI in Managing Opioid Use Disorder?

For example, in a system designed to detect and respond to an opioid overdose, physiological information such as respiratory rate will need to be contextualized alongside the individual’s clinical phenotype, and the health care system will need to be primed to respond to a predetermined threshold for action [42]. Advanced statistical methods, the hallmark of AI and big data analytics, have therefore become necessary to extract timely, understandable, and actionable outputs from health care data [43].

A Smartphone App Self-Management Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Randomized Controlled Trial of Clinical Outcomes

A Smartphone App Self-Management Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Randomized Controlled Trial of Clinical Outcomes

Readily available access to educational resources can be a challenge for participants with COPD due to cost, environmental barriers, timing not being suitable, or a lack of transport to travel to these educational sessions [32]. Smartphones have many benefits, such as providing convenient communication with the patient and health care professional; they offer portability, Bluetooth, and internet connection, allowing for the use of various smartphone apps to work anywhere at any time.

How to Refine and Prioritize Key Performance Indicators for Digital Health Interventions: Tutorial on Using Consensus Methodology to Enable Meaningful Evaluation of Novel Digital Health Interventions

The intended use of the Gravitate Health solutions is to enable users to understand their medicines in an individualized way, for example, understand why they are taking each medicine, what effects to anticipate, what precautions to take while consuming the medicine, and how best to follow recommendations and adhere to their ongoing treatment.
