Filter by:Non-professional carers (typically family members) play a critical role in providing adequate home care. This research explores the use of wearable sensors (WS) and electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) surveys to monitor stress levels of advanced cancer patient/carer dyads. During wear times, WS-triggered ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) were conducted via short smartphone-based surveys. This pilot study investigates the feasibility of EMAs in community palliative care.
Investigating the role of shared-decision making in cardiac rehabilitation
To develop and examine an interactive, multi-functional mobile app-based technology designed to encourage endogenous health care using a 12-month randomized controlled trial to demonstrate whether knee osteoarthritis (KOA)-at-risk individuals and KOA-diagnosed patients can improve their knee pain, physical function, and other relevant outcomes by using the technology to support knee/KOA self-management.
In the present study, investigators aim to compare intervention using mobile technology (IMT) plus usual care with only usual care in patients with a high risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Investigators hypothesize that IMT plus usual care reduces the CVD risk and improves the secondary outcomes in this population through 12 months of follow-up period. Patients presented to the outpatient clinics in a tertiary hospital (Dr. Siyami Ersek Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Research and Training Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey) who were considered to be eligible according to inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled to the study. The eligibility criteria is; Patients between 20 to 79 years old who are in high risk for CVD (10 years ASCVD risk ≥ 7.5%). Patients with prior CVD events (myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery by-pass grafting operation, stroke and peripheral artery disease), pregnancy, communication problems, severe neuropsychiatric problems and chronic kidney disease are excluded from the study. In addition, patients that are unable to use smartphone phone are also excluded.
Investigators are examining the quality improvement impact of providing patients with a an electronic health record-connected blood pressure cuff. Investigators will give half of patients already eligible for hypertension management within a clinical pharmacist panel, the ability to upload their blood pressure data into Stanford's electronic health record.
This study will test whether a digital health intervention (DASH Cloud) using smartphones can improve diet quality among women at risk for cardiovascular disease. The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) Diet has been proven to lower blood pressure, yet dissemination efforts remain poor. This study aims to use technology to improve adherence to DASH.
