Filter by:The main objective is to evaluate the implementation of a hybrid care model called the mixed attention model (MAM) in clinical practice and to evaluate whether its implementation improves clinical outcomes compared to conventional follow-up. This is a multicenter prospective observational study involving 360 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Spondylarthritis (SpA) from five Spanish Hospitals. Patients will be followed-up by the MAM protocol, which is a care model that incorporates the use of digital tool consisting of a mobile application (App) that patients can use at home and that professionals can review asynchronously to detect incidents and to follow their patients; clinical evolution between face-to-face visits. Another group of patients, whose follow-up will be conducted in accordance with a traditional face-to-face care model, will be assessed as the control group. Sociodemographic characteristics, treatments, laboratory parameters, assessment of tender and swollen joints, visual analogue scale for pain and electronic patient reported outcome reports (ePROs) will be collected for all subjects. In the MAM group, these items will be self-assessed both by the mobile App and during face-to-face visits with rheumatologist, who will do the same for patients included in the traditional care model. Patients will be able to report any incidence related to their disease or treatment through the mobile App.
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
The objective of this research is to translate the Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation Acceptance Scale into Turkish and assess its reliability and accuracy.
The goal of this pilot feasibility/acceptability study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telehealth approach to increase access to services and reduce depression/anxiety symptoms and risk of substance use in a population of women with perinatal depression/anxiety and elevated substance use risk. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Assess the acceptability and feasibility of a telehealth approach to deliver an 8-week evidence-based group intervention to women with perinatal depression/anxiety and mild to moderate substance use risk. - Obtain preliminary data on treatment response to a telehealth 8-week evidence-based group intervention. Participants will participate in an 8-week evidence-based group intervention and complete the study questionnaire including depression severity, treatment adherence, and substance use risk which will be evaluated at baseline, post-intervention, and 2-month follow-up.
The prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in the world is currently around 9.3% of adults aged between 20 and 79 years, which corresponds to 463 million people living with DM, and about 80% of these people are found in developing countries. In Brazil, fourth in the number of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) in the world, the prevalence of DM is around 12%, with a significant increase in the last three decades. Non-adherence to DM treatment is known as a problem in the scenario and internationally, as it impairs the physiological response to the disease, increasing the direct and indirect cost of treatment. Pharmaceutical care is a practice model characterized by the provision of pharmaceutical services that optimize treatment, improve the process of medicines used, and aim at their best use. With the calamity situation arising from the COVID-19 pandemic created in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, the Pharmaceutical Telecare service was implemented. Dapagliflozin was recently incorporated into the Brazilian public system for the treatment of type 2 DM. Considering that there are no studies in Brazil to date on the use, treatment adherence, and problems related to pharmacotherapy (PRM) associated with dapagliflozin, and also considering that the guidance and monitoring of patients remotely have become more frequent and necessary, the purpose of this protocol is to describe a clinical trial that will evaluate the impact of a pharmaceutical telecare service in aspects related to treatment adherence, disease control, and costs, offered to people with DM2 using dapagliflozin. The hypothesis that will be tested is that Pharmaceutical Telecare can be as effective as standard care for type 2 diabetes and assess the associated costs related to teleconsultation in public health settings.
Fertility management refers to the entirety of practices that allow families to have as many children as they want and when they want, prevent unwanted pregnancies, regulate the time between two births and receive help in having children in the case of infertility. According to the Turkey Demographic and Health Survey 2018 data, 70% of women in Turkey who are currently married do not use any contraceptive method. Based on the same data, the rate of the unmet need for fertility management is 12% nationwide, 14% in eastern provinces, and 17% in women at the ages of 20-24. These rates show that the rates of unmet fertility management needs in Turkey are still not on the desired level. The fact that eastern provinces of Turkey have the lowest rate of modern contraceptive method use as 43% and a high rate of unmet fertility management needs as 14% suggests that it is needed to increase the effectiveness of fertility management counseling and reach more women. In these eastern provinces, especially women living in rural areas do not have easy access to these services due to the high prevalence of adolescent marriages, lack of transportation opportunities, healthcare personnel and healthcare services, and unpredictable weather conditions.
It is critical to establish an effective form of telemedicine during the Covid 19 pandemic, that will allow safe social distancing of clinicians and patients. The investigators serve as the regional plastic, burns and reconstructive centre for the West of Scotland, population 3 million. All face to face clinics have been cancelled and converted to telephone/telemedicine only consultations. The investigators will establish both 2D and 3D telemedicine as normal patient follow up practice during this period. The aim is to implement a 3D telemedicine system to facilitate patient follow up and remote physiotherapy, that will act as if the patient is physically 'present' in the room. Physiotherapy is crucial to patient outcomes after burns contractures, hand trauma and cancer reconstruction. The 3D telemedicine system will be built by an industrial partner, with CE marked equipment, specifically to help during the Covid-19 Pandemic. This study forms a follow on study to the investigator's pilot study (based on clinical feedback only)
