Filter by:This interventional study aims to explore the potential of a smartphone app, Contigo, in enhancing the quality of life for patients with various cancers compared to standard care. The investigators will asses effects on quality of life, depressive symptoms, and appointment adherence.
M-TECCU is a study: multicenter, randomized and open. It consists of two parallel groups to compare the efficacy of the TECCU web-based telemonitoring system to achieve and maintain activity remission in patients with moderate-high complexity inflammatory bowel disease compared to usual clinical practice.
The goal of this study is to estimate the triage values, efficiency and safety of tele-dermoscopic triage of skin lesions suspected of melanoma. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the rate of correct patient management by a single, 2, 3 and 5 dermatologists. - What is the consequence for the patients if teledermoscopic triage is implemented, in termes of missed melanomas and reduced unnecessary excisions/biopsies. Retrospectively included patients will have their skin lesions re-examined by setups of 1, 2, 3 and 5 tele-dermoscopists who will assign a tentative diagnosis and a recommended clinical action. The investigators will compare the rate of correct patient management between the different setups.
The objective of this study is to assess whether an intervention package via telemedicine consisting of daily multidisciplinary rounds with a specialist in intensive care medicine, an intervention package provided by a specialized multiprofessional team (nursing, physical therapy and clinical pharmacy) and a management intervention package, focused on quality and safety, reduces the length of stay in ICU patients in Brazil. Our hypothesis is that the intervention package via telemedicine has the potential to decrease the length of stay in ICU patients in Brazil. The study provides for the implementation of three interventions in association via telemedicine. - Daily multidisciplinary rounds conducted by a physician specialized in intensive care medicine - Intervention package by specialized multidisciplinary team (nursing, physiotherapy and clinical pharmacy). - Management intervention package (quality and safety). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Length of stay in ICU, measured in days, considering the time interval between admission to the ICU and the moment of physical transfer of the patient to another hospital admission area or external transfer. - ICU mortality. - Mechanical ventilation free time at 28 days. - Ventilator-associated events. - Patient Mobilization Density. - Standard resource use. - Standardized mortality rate.
The study team will use implementation science to accelerate the uptake of teleconsultationfor burn patients by 1) examining the relationships between clinician perceptions of acceptability, feasibility, intention to use, and actual use of burn teleconsultation 2) identifying the optimal process for burn teleconsultation and the barriers and facilitators for its use during a crisis or prolonged care situation, and 3) designing and testing the effectiveness of a specific, tailored burn teleconsultation toolkit intervention to increase burn teleconsultation use.
The proposed trial is a multiphase, multicenter, non-inferiority, hybrid type 1 effectiveness, randomized controlled trial to test an innovative virtual world-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program, "Destination Cardiac Rehab". The primary objectives of this study are to assess the efficacy and adherence of "Destination Cardiac Rehab" compared to traditional center-based CR.
Engaging patients through integration of patient-reported outcome measures in routine clinical care can improve the patient experience and provide a systematic way to collect adverse event (AE) data. Collecting these data on a large scale can inform new solutions to longstanding barriers to successful treatment such as medication non-adherence. This study evaluated whether implementing a patient-reported outcome data collection and AE surveillance tool would result in greater treatment continuation for patients receiving care on a telehealth platform. We evaluated how this data collection and surveillance tool - a short prompt for patients to provide information on treatment satisfaction and side effects - impacted the outcome of interest, treatment continuation. We tested two cycles in n=2,000 patients receiving care for erectile dysfunction on a telehealth platform using a randomized control experimental design and accounted for incidents where true randomization was not possible during implementation. The first cycle tested the tool alone, while the second cycle tested the tool in conjunction with a messaging template system that provided standardized side effect counseling.
The current study seeks to address questions regarding internet and social media usage as well as telemedicine concept and knowledge, by conducting targeted focus group discussions (FGDs) and administering cross-sectional questionnaires among PWID in Greece. Further parameters, such as perceptions for high-quality healthcare access, confidentiality, privacy, and security, will also be explored.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the telemedicine practices for contraceptive counseling given to pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does family planning counseling given to pregnant women by using telemedicine practices have an effect on the knowledge level about family planning? - Is family planning counseling given to pregnant women by using telemedicine practices effective on satisfaction with family planning services? Participants have attended to contraceptive counseling video call sessions provided via WhatsApp application and they have the opportunity to see the consultant and her materials during these sessions. After these sessions (two weeks later), contraceptive counseling video call session has been repeated, and at the end of this second session, women have been asked to answer the questions in the "Family Planning Knowledge Level Form" and the "Family Planning Services Satisfaction Scale". There is a comparison group (a control group) in this study, and no intervention was made to the women in the control group other than the routine services given in primary care settings. Researchers will compare the experimental group with control group to see if the telemedicine practices are effective in increasing the knowledge level of pregnant women about family planning and in the satisfaction of family planning services provided by primary health care settings.
