Filter by:A study protocol for analyze the influence of therapeutic education on the metabolic control of patients with type I diabetes. To measure the change in glucose levels, it will use the continuous glucose monitoring sensor that the patients have implanted. It will perform a data download prior and after to the educational intervention. An assessment of acquired knowledge will also be performed and it will be analyzed whether learning about their disease and self-care helps to improve their emotional state. The intervention of this study is only training with therapeutic education, it does not require any type of extra test or medical or pharmacological product. It will only be necessary to answer attitudinal questionnaires by the patient
The purpose of the research is to evaluate and test the usefulness of the mobile application forDiabetes to improve the self-care of individuals with diabetes type 1. The investigators want to obtain the missing evidence from the field of application operation and their impact on individuals' self-care and study the acceptance of applications among healthcare staff, which plays an essential role in patient education.
This is an effectiveness-implementation study to assess the effectiveness of a peer-led multi-component lifestyle program that will aim to lower BP among pre-hypertensive individuals in Nepal. The program will aim to encourage weight loss, improve diet (using a DASH diet), lower sodium intake, encourage only moderate alcohol intake among drinkers, and encourage more physical activity through peers.
This study will be carried out in order to determine the e-health literacy levels of the students of the Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation and to reveal whether the level of their education has an effect on e-health literacy. It is aimed to contribute to the literature with the objective, evidence-based results to be obtained from the study and to contribute to undergraduate education as a result of the differences between class levels.
Interventions to increase the number of people cycling regularly are likely to induce a range of health and societal benefits, including reduced incidence of heart disease, cancer and obesity, improved mental health and well-being, and reduced road congestion and air pollution. They are also likely to provide tangible financial and in-kind benefits to employers and society, through reduced workforce absenteeism, increased productivity and decreased use of NHS resources. However, increasing the number of people cycling regularly is complex and interventions undertaken to date have only been modestly successful. Thus, to induce a step-change in the number of people cycling in the United Kingdom (UK), in line with British Cycling and HSBC UK's stated aim of getting two million more people on bikes, new approaches are needed. The research team have been working with staff and management at British Cycling and HSBC to co-develop a novel, multi-component intervention for delivery at HSBC offices to increase the number of employees cycling regularly. The intervention has four main components: 1) a six (intermediate) or nine (foundation) week practical skills programme; 2) cycle provision (tune-up/loan/subsidised purchase) schemes; 3) establishment of a cycle-friendly workplace culture; 4) a cycle app. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of this intervention in a before-and-after study in four HSBC offices around the UK.
The aim of this study is to examine some aspects of health in the special youth care. In this case it concerns the mental, social and physical and sporting health of the young people in the community institution De Kempen, Campus de Hutten. To examine these aspects of health, questionnaires will be used and participants will be asked to wear a SenseWear bracelet during their PE lessons. It is a pilot study that explores and tests the way in which certain things are best investigated in this setting. It examines how the practical side of such research should be carried out. It will also be investigated which obstacles, weaknesses and errors can be encountered when conducting such an investigation.
The overall goal is to develop a culturally appropriate and easy to disseminate educational intervention documented to improve cancer prevention and increase cancer screening behaviors in the rural Midwest.
The high prevalence and burden of cardiometabolic disease underlie the urgent need to identify novel approaches to managing and preventing cardiometabolic disease and risk. This project will test an innovative use of mobile health technology to implement a closed-loop feedback system that collects objective patient-generated data and provides clinical recommendations to modify contributing health behaviors. In addition to improving care for cardiometabolic disease, the tools and methods developed by this study for collecting patient data and providing clinical feedback could also easily be adapted and applied to a range of other health conditions, and are thus highly relevant to public health.
This cluster randomized trial will test the affect of individual participation in culturally- and socially-related activities on health and well-being, in comparison also with the classic individual determinant, in relation to urban renovation schemes. Investigators will using a questionnaire based on several areas such as individual psychological well-being (PGWBI), individual happiness positioning (Keyes Scale) and health status perception (SF-12 Health Survey). Secondary outcomes will be related to social capital density (relationships and trust), culture (participation) and religion. The survey will be undertaken in a mid-size Italian metropolitan area, namely the Metropolitan City of Bologna.
