Filter by:It is estimated that 2.3 million Taiwanese have diabetes and there is a 44% increased rate among young adults and adolescents. Poor dietary habits and sedentary lifestyle are the major risk factors for type 2 diabetes. The growing availability of smartphones has boosted the development of new technologies that incorporate the use of digital food photography as health promotion and individualized nutrition care. Digital health technology is also used to prevent and treat diabetes with good degree of successes in the short term but the long term effect remains unknown. The broad aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of digital technology eHealth care for diabetic patients. A total of 300 diabetic patients will be recruited from Diabetes Shared Care Network and community care center in Taiwan and follow up 12 months. A simple randomization by computer system will be used to randomly allocate subjects into 2 groups: control group and eHealth care. The control group (n=100) of diabetic patients will receive conventional health and nutrition education from state registered dietitian. The eHealth care group (n=200) of diabetic patients will receive a 10 mins of food portion size nutrition education using " 3D/AR MetaFood platform" and is required to record their consume meal by food image once a week using Taiwan FoodAPP. Patients in the eHealth group will receive instant feedback from the nutritionists or artificial intelligence (AI) for the information of glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL), and educational video related to healthy eating or how to select GI/GL food. Anthropometry, and baseline questionnaires will be collected at baseline. Blood biochemistry (e.g. HbA1c) and body weight will be collected at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. The collected food image data will be used for AI training to identify the relationship between the patient's diet and blood glucose changes over time.
This intervention aimed to collect relevant information for the development of a technology-based exercise application. This information-collection is based on the opinions of older adults (65+ years) as well as experts from the field of geriatric rehabilitation/medicine/research.
• Brief Summary: In order to benefit from the opportunity of education anytime and anywhere with distance education, individuals need to use mobile devices such as mobile phones, tablets, PCs, which provide the opportunity to access educational content independent of time and place. For these reasons, new searches for the delivery of health services are on the agenda and mobile health applications are seen as a solution to most problems faced by the health system and hospitals. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a nutritional method that was first described by Gauder et al. in 1980 and is used in patients with impaired oral intake and intact gastrointestinal tract for various reasons. Caregivers play an important role in the home care process of patients undergoing PEG. Caregivers may encounter social, physical and psychological problems while applying their care. In line with all these reasons, the training to be given to the patient or his/her relative/person who will perform the PEG implantation is very important. Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of mobile application use in training given to caregivers of patients with PEG on the competence, satisfaction and care burden of caregivers.
mobile application will be developed to support the post-discharge home care of mothers of premature babies. With the developed mobile application, the effect of the education given to the mothers on the knowledge and skills of infant care, mother-infant attachment, and the mother's self-efficacy will be evaluated.
The purpose of the study is to prove the clinical superiority of respiratory rehabilitation software "Redpill Breath" and evaluate the clinical improvement effect by 6-minute walk test of the software, compared to the manual rehabilitation management for those who need respiratory rehabilitation(COPD, Asthma, Lung Cancer, etc.)
This study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial to determine the effects of e-mobile education and counselling service on self-care agency, body image, and quality of life in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. The sample of the study was determined using power analysis after making preliminary tests with the patients who met the sample selection criteria in Isparta City Hospital Obesity Center, and consisted of 51 (26 experiment, 25 control) patients. The patients in the experimental group received e-mobile training and consultancy services with the mobile application developed specifically for bariatric surgery that started before the operation and lasted for 3 months. The data of the study were collected using the Personal Information Form, Self-Care Agency, Body Image, and Moorehead Ardelt Quality of Life II (MA-II) Scales prepared in accordance with the literature. In addition to descriptive statistics, Chi-Square, Independent Samples t-test, Repeated Measures, Mann-Whitney U and Friedman tests were used to evaluate the data. A statistically significant difference was found in the mean scores of Self-Care Strength, Body Image, MA-II and BMI of the patients in the experimental and control groups according to the processes (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of preoperative, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd month Self-Care Power, Body Image and MA-II scale mean scores (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the groups in favour of the experimental group in terms of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd month BMI averages (p<0.05).
Getting a cancer diagnosis, the difficult treatments applied and the side effects that occur completely affect the life of the patient, shaking his future plans and adaptation mechanisms. In recent years, the role of healthcare professionals has included counseling and promoting positive health behaviors to reduce disease and treatment side effects and increase adherence to disease. The service provided by healthcare professionals to patients has started to move to digital environments with the developing technology and the concept of e-health has been born. Offering e-health support as part of regular care has become a powerful tool to help cancer patients manage their disease. Web-based interventions or mobile applications provide an opportunity for improved communication and better information exchange between healthcare professionals and patients. In addition, education of cancer patients and patient self-management allow for better clinical outcomes using e-health or mobile health applications. The widespread use of smartphones enables cancer patients to be supported from different perspectives through mobile applications. When the studies are examined, it is noteworthy that mobile applications developed for female cancer patients are predominantly related to breast cancer. Most of the technology-based researches on gynecological cancers are studies conducted through text message intervention, online web-based interventions or social media tools such as Facebook and WeChat. For this reason, the aim of this study is to develop a mobile application to increase physical and psychosocial adjustment for gynecological cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and to investigate its effectiveness.
This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of a newly developed mobile application versus the conventional method of cephalometric analysis in the diagnosis of dental and skeletal deformities among pre-adolescent patients.
The overall aim of the eMOM GDM-project is to develop and evaluate a novel system to clinical decision making and patient behavior change in treatment of GDM, combining diet, physical activity, sleep, heart rate (e.g. stress), and glucose monitoring within a single system (the eMOM GDM application), and linking the developed application tool for the normal health care system in a new way. In this second phase of the project, the effect of eMOM GDM application on maternal and neonatal outcomes will be evaluated in a randomized controlled study design. The follow-up study continues until 3 months postpartum.
The aim of this study was to develop an interactive mobile application and to investigate the effect of this application on the management of nausea and vomiting symptoms by using it during chemotherapy treatment.
