Filter by:Digital pharmaceutical care, also known as e-pharmaceutical care or telepharmacy, refers to using digital technologies to provide remote pharmaceutical care services. It involves the application of digital tools and platforms to deliver medication-related services, patient counseling, medication management, and other pharmaceutical care activities. It allows patients to access pharmaceutical services conveniently from their homes or any location with an internet connection. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with limited mobility, those living in rural or underserved areas, or patients with difficulty visiting a physical pharmacy. However, it is essential to note that while digital pharmaceutical care provides many benefits, it may only suit some patients or situations. Some individuals may still prefer face-to-face interactions or may require hands-on assistance, especially for complex medication management. Healthcare providers should assess the appropriateness of digital solutions on a case-by-case basis and ensure patient privacy and data security when implementing digital pharmaceutical care services.
The goal of the proposed study is to perform a pilot test of a patient-centered decision support tool to help pregnant people and providers work together in making informed, shared decisions regarding whether or not to opt for elective IOL at 39 weeks gestation
The trial aimed to evaluate the sealant retention, patient's preference and chair time needed during pit and fissure sealant placement under two isolation techniques [Dryshield system (DS) and cotton roll isolation (CRI)] in a university setting.
Patients will be randomized either to receive standard daily dressing or hydrocolloid dressing using a randomization generator. After closing the wound with the sutures,the scar will be covered by a hydrocolloid dressing, which will be left in place for 7 days(Experimental) or the standard dressing (Control) that will be covered with petrolatum jelly and bandaging during this time period, which has to be re-applied daily. Patients and dermatologic surgeons will then complete surveys 7 days, 30 days, and 90 days after surgery to evaluate the cosmetic appearance of these scars.
This research study is comparing telemedicine and face-to-face visits to understand patients' experiences with telemedicine versus face to face visits and to understand when it is and is not appropriate to conduct visits remotely
In this study, the investigators show that by upskilling of primary care physicians (PCPs) in SDM and leveraging on a novel pictorial Visual Analogue Uroflowmetry Score (VAUS), they can enhance older men's recognition of LUTS and stimulated discussion with their PCPs.
The aim of this study was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of Lumbar Spine Surgery Expectations Survey developed by Mancuso.
The 11th March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus Covid-19 as a pandemic. Urgent reorganization was required to give answers to the needs of this new illness. Since mid March, the number of patients admitted every day grew exponentially, and despite strengthening the Home Hospitalization service, resources were insufficient to care for such a number of people at home. The HH was called to transform a hotel into a medicalized healthcare space. Current health policy emphasizes on patient experience, as one of the key components of quality of care. Analyzing patients experience will provide knowledge about their authentic concerns or what they identify as real needs, how they perceive the care received and will allow finding out if it was a good alternative. Patients must be involved in decision-making about their heath situation and treatment in order to provide an integrated healthcare. Aims: To assess the patient experience during hospital admission in a Medicalized Hotel for COVID-19, from 8th March to 25th May, and variables that may influence these experiences. Study type: Observational and descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted of patients admitted in Medicalized Hotel who met inclusion criteria. Sample size: 517 patients. Main variable: Patient experience (collected by the Picker Patient Experience questionnaire, PPE-15, translated to Catalan and Spanish), that content four open questions analyzed in a qualitative way. Other variables: Socio-demographic and review clinical records.
The objective of this study is to identify and weight attributes of topic and systemic pain treatment options relevant from the patients' perspective with peripheral neuropathic pain. The study will use a discrete choice experimental design to reach its objective.
Background: Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) is a condition with an increased risk of oral cancer. Due to the current changes in the factors associated with these diseases (because of human papillomavirus), it is expected that those who have no history of smoking or alcohol, young (<50 years old), and white male would be commonly affected. Those individuals require a higher need for information, preferred a more active role in decision-making, and have a longer lifespan than older individuals. There remain no detailed studies of whether the informational needs delivered to patients with OED met their needs or indeed what information such patient may wish. A few tools are available to evaluate the IN of patients with head and neck disorders. However, the items of these instruments were dedicated to a particular disease (e.g. cancer) and hence are not applicable to be used for OED. Project aims: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Oral Epithelial Dysplasia Informational Needs Questionnaire (ODIN-Q), developed and revised in the preliminary work for the proposed study, in a cohort of patients with OED. Timescale: 19 months. Clinical significance: This questionnaire can be useful in clinical practice. It could help to meet the patient's information needs and plan educational interventions for those showing unmet needs.
