One of the goals in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is the availability of a healthy and prosperous life for all ages. This goal mentions health priorities i.e. non-communicable diseases. Chronic kidney failure (CRF) is one of the non-communicable diseases that is the main cause of death and disability both in the world and in Indonesia. The prevalence of CRF in Indonesia is 0.5% with 83.2% of patients being of productive age and the highest number of CRF patients in North Kalimantan, Southeast Sulawesi, DKI Jakarta and Yogyakarta. Monitoring and evaluation of patients with CRF is currently mostly carried out conventionally not using health technology that is integrated with hospital information systems. This study aims to design and provide a health information system for patients with CRF, hereinafter referred to as SIKIDI, which integrates mobile-health applications used independently by patients with existing information systems in hospitals.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Resources Development Nurse Consultancy Program (EMÖZGEDAP), based on Dennis's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Theory along with the hypno-breastfeeding philosophy given to mothers and family relatives, on social support perception, breastfeeding self-efficacy and outcomes. The study will involve pregnant women and close others assigned randomly to the intervention (n=50) or control (n=50) groups in a state hospital in Turkey. Individual counseling will be provided to the intervention group within the scope of the EMÖZGEDAP, based on Denis's Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy theory and hypnobreastfeeding philosophy. EMÖZGEDAP, which will be applied to pregnant women and their family relatives, will consist of 5 sessions lasting 7.5 hours (2 sessions with the woman and her family relatives, two sessions with the woman alone, and one with her family relatives alone). The Antenatal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale will be evaluated before the counseling program is given in the antepartum period. Breastfeeding and Nutrition Results, Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale, Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale for Fathers, Assessment Scale for Perceived Support of Close Others in Relation to Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy and Scale of Perception of Close Others' Support For Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy will be evaluated at the 1st, 3rd, and 6th months postpartum.
Burn rehabilitation management is dependent on the patients themselves, non-treatment adherence may delay the optimal timing of burn rehabilitation and it may not be regained easily. The inevitable sequelae of increasing joint stiffness and tethered soft-tissue glide become more devastating over time. It has a major impact on clinical outcomes such as scarring, deformity and dysfunction, which result in lower quality of life compared to general population There is a growing body of research on patient-centered interventions including the concept of self-management. Such phenomenon is consistent with burn patients' needs at aftercare. The proposed smartphone self-management program is to change the paradigm from paternalistic to collaborative relationship. Self-management is to build up patient equipping ability in problem solving, decision making, and appropriate use of resources and has led to improved patient engagement, adherence, and better quality of care. The investigators hypothesize that, upon intervention completion and compared with the control group, burn patients in the intervention group will report: 1. Higher level of health-related quality of life, 2. Higher level of self-efficacy 3. Higher level of score in Burn Rehabilitation Knowledge 4. Lower pain level, as measured by Numeric Pain Rating Scale; and 5. Lower level of itchiness The desired smart phone assisted self-management intervention will be carried out by principal investigator to selected adult burn patients before discharge and post discharge period. Before discharge, ward nurses will provide discharge pamphlet and individual face to face education to both groups as usual care. After discharge, instant messaging supportive enquiry service will be provided to both groups via smartphone apps. For intervention group, principal investigator will assess subject health care needs prior to intervention. Two extra sessions, 20 minutes, face to face, individual self-management education with aid of computer, track log sheet will be provided to intervention group. Concept of motivational interviewing will be incorporated as complement teaching strategy to facilitate self-management learning. Principal investigator will be responsible to deliver burn self-management education upon discharge. Intervention group will receive "Rehabilitation Booklet for Burn Patients" upon discharge. After discharge, only intervention group subject receives two sessions, 10 minutes, telephone follow up calls and five personalized chat-based messaging follow up will be provided. Besides that, self-management education information will be delivered to intervention group via instant messaging service as well. Ad-hoc instant messaging support will be provided to both groups if required.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of telenursing interventions based on the empowerment model in empowering patients with COPD.
The purpose of this 32 week study is to use an innovative experimental design known as SMART (Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial), which will allow us to determine the best way to sequence the delivery of teleexercise (referred to as an adaptive intervention), combined with predictive analytics on participant adherence in a stepped program of physical activity interventions. All 257 participants will have access to a library of recorded video exercise content, and a weekly wellness article. Some participants will receive health coaching calls (1st randomization). Analytic data will be used to determine which participants are responding or not responding to the intervention. Participants not responding after 4 weeks will receive either live one on one or group exercise training (2nd randomization). After 8 weeks, the participant will receive only pre recorded exercise content and articles for another 8 weeks. After final surveys, participants will have open access to the website for another 16 weeks where we will passively observe their fitbit and website data. The study outcomes are: The effectiveness of the adaptive interventions Exploring mediating and moderating variables Sensitivity analysis of the predictive analytics
Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, collectively known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), impose a significant burden on patients and healthcare systems due to their chronic nature and complex treatment. This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of on-demand telemonitoring, as opposed to standard fixed-schedule telemonitoring, in managing IBD. The primary objective is to evaluate the impact of on-demand telemonitoring on the number of persistent flares over 12 months. The study involves a multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing standard telemonitoring, which includes regular completion of the Monitor IBD At Home questionnaire and fecal calprotectin home tests, with on-demand telemonitoring where patients use the app based on their symptoms. The study population includes adult patients with stable remission on maintenance therapy. Disease activity, measured by unplanned healthcare contacts, is the primary outcome, while secondary outcomes encompass clinical and patient-reported disease activity, quality of life, self-efficacy, patient activation, total healthcare contacts, safety, and costs. Baseline characteristics include patient, disease, and socio-demographic factors. This innovative approach has the potential to enhance patient autonomy, satisfaction, and self-management, while reducing the overall burden on the healthcare system.
Individuals of Chinese heritage are the largest and fastest growing segment of the US Asian population. US Chinese have sociodemographic characteristics and culture that differ substantially from other US Asians, and therefore, differ in social determinants of health, health status, and disease risk. US Chinese adults are at increased risk for cardiometabolic disease, related conditions (obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension), and systemic inflammation that promotes disease onset and progression. Immigration to a new country can substantially impact the gut microbiome which may promote systemic inflammation. Pilot interventions indicate a high-fiber diet rich in whole grains reduced inflammation and improved obesity. Additionally, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) supported, evidence-based HomeStyles intervention has demonstrated feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy in improving lifestyle behaviors and home environments associated with obesity risk in families. A lack of linguistically, culturally tailored interventions to their specific health needs makes it difficult for US Chinese to implement healthy lifestyle behaviors and reduce health risks. Interventions tailored for US Chinese that could attenuate modifiable cardiometabolic risk factors, understand physiological sequelae, and bridge health equity are not currently available. Thus, the overall goal of this project is to test the efficacy of HomeStyles in improving health outcomes in US Chinese. Project aims are to: A) Culturally adapt the HomeStyles intervention through community-engaged approaches. B) Conduct a 10-week, 2-armed Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) to test HomeStyles intervention efficacy on health outcomes (dietary intake, physical activity, self-efficacy, HbA1C, waist circumference, and BMI), hypothesizing that participants randomized to the treatment condition will have greater improvements in health outcomes than control comparators. C) Examine associations between intervention participation and gut microbiota/systemic inflammation and test hypotheses that a whole-grain rich diet adopted by those in the intervention group will increase anti-inflammatory gut bacteria, reduce inflammatory gut bacteria, and lower systemic inflammation.
In the first-year project of this study, oncology nurses have reported experiencing massive stress, insufficient communication ability, and the need for communication-related training. 70% of them had moderate or higher severity of workload, fatigue, and psychological distress (at the measure point) before being provided with Basic Remote Psychological Support Course (BRPSC). A month after BRPSC, some oncology nurses have indicated/affirmed the benefits of undergoing the comprehensive psycho oncology education training courses. Thus, the second- and third-year continuation projects are focused on the development and delivery of Multi-Psychological Empowerment Courses (MPEC) for oncology nurses
This study is a prospective, quasi-experimental design, with an experimental group and a control group, will be created. The aims of this study are as follows: 1. Describe the self-management and information needs of liver transplant recipients, 2. Create content or modules related to the self-management of liver transplant recipients, 3. Build an intelligent case management platform, 4. Evaluate the usability of the platform, and 5. Conduct deep learning and examine the effects of the intelligent case management platform on self-efficacy, self-management, health outcomes, and health-related quality of life. Data will be collected at discharge (baseline data) and 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after discharge. An estimated 133 patients will be involved in this experiment: 44 in the experimental group and 89 in the control group. Statistical package software (SPSS 22.0) will be used to analyze the data. A generalized estimation equation model will examine the differences in self-efficacy, self-management, and health-related quality of life between the experimental and control groups. Survival analysis and the Kaplan-Meier method will be used to analyze health outcomes, including hospital readmission, emergency visits, episodes of infection and rejection of organs, and death.
