Filter by:This study's purpose is to test the effects of an electronic health intervention platform developed by Epharmix (also known as CareSignal), which features two-way SMS text messages and phone calls intended to improve clinical outcomes compared to the standard of care. This was a randomized open, blinded end-point (PROBE) trial of adult patients discharged from the ED and referred to a provider for follow-up care. Participants in the intervention arm received a self-scheduling text or phone message that automatically connected them to their referral provider to schedule a follow-up appointment and sent them appointment reminders. Those in the control arm received standard of care written instructions to contact listed referral providers. The primary outcome was time to the follow-up appointment.
The proposed Church Bridge intervention project will provide an innovative, evidence-based and technology supported, health intervention model for Southern, African American, and rural populations who continue to be disparately burdened by obesity and associated co-morbidities (i.e., hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease). By targeting young adults (21-50 years of age) with families, the project will contribute to the long-term reduction of preventable chronic disease and related health care costs for the public.
Inadequate adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) can impede successful viral suppression and consequently lead to negative health consequences. This study aims to refine and test the efficacy of a mobile health ART adherence application (ARTAA), delivered over a smartphone, with helping individuals improve their ART adherence.
Life expectancy of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) has increased dramatically during the past years, due to the successes of cardiac surgery. Nearly all of these children with CHD can be operated at young age and more than 90% reach adulthood. However, many adults with CHD are life-long affected by cardiac events, particularly arrhythmias and heart failure, putting them at risk of premature death. These events have a large impact on quality of life of patients and their families and merit life-long hospital visits in a medical center specialized in adult CHD. Especially for adults with CHD patient care with a smartphone is suited because of their young age and chronic condition. So far, data are lacking on smartphone interventions in patients with CHD.
RESEARCH QUESTION: Are hospitalized patients able to use a tablet computer (iPad) to take brief surveys, access their patient portal (MyChart), and watch informational videos about their condition?
