Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the use of MyHealthyPregnancy (MHP) 3.0 in clinical practice over a 1 year period of time. The investigators will pilot MHP 3.0 (Spanish and English language options) at practice sites at the Obstetrix Medical Group of Houston, Texas and the UPMC (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center) Healthcare System. Patient and care team feedback will be assessed throughout this study. Patients at Obstetrix Medical Group of Houston will be assessed using 4 short acceptability and feasibility surveys administered by the Naima Health team using a link for an online survey during the study term: at baseline, week 14-18, week 24-28, and week 34-36. A subset of participants at UPMC will also be asked to complete user surveys.
The treatment of acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Poland is at the level of standardized European care. However, the first months after MI are crucial from the perspective of patient's prognosis. It is extremely important to take care of all cardiovascular risk factors. Mobile application (afterAMI) supported by web system is a novel telemedical tool created to support patient and physician during the process of cardiac rehabilitation. The application has educational model with focus on cardiovascular risk factors and lifestyle after MI. Moreover, there is a module to control vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, weight and many others. Additionally, application will send reminders for better drug adherence. 100 patients will be recruited to take part in the study. All of which will be hospitalized at the 1st Department and Clinic of Cardiology because of the MI. The aim of the project is to study the impact of application-supported model of care with comparison to standard care. At the end of the study cardiovascular risk factors control will be analysed, as well as rehospitalizations, patient's knowledge regarding risk factors, return to work and quality of life. This will be a prospective, open-label, randomized, single-centre study. All 100 patients will be observed 6 months after discharge from the hospital. End points will be assessed during control visit 1- and 6-months after inclusion into the study. This project is an example of a telemedicine solution application into everyday practice, which is consistent with multiple international cardiac societies.
Investigator aimed to analyzed the effect of Covid-19 pandemic on the physical-psychosocial and cognitive state of the children, to benefit form the health, education services and the caregiver's quality of life with telemedicine.
Being physically active and exercising is important for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes as it helps control blood sugar and improve physical function. Lots of people find it hard to be physically active and sticking with exercise is difficult for most people. In this project we will investigate two strategies to support people with Type 2 diabetes to increase and then maintain a physically active lifestyle, which includes exercising regularly. Participants in one group (Exercise Counselling) will complete a 6-month structured exercise and physical activity programme supported by regular (virtual) contact with an exercise specialist. Participants in the second group (Mobile health technology (mHealth)) will receive the same 6-month exercise and physical activity programme supported by an exercise specialist, but participants in this group will also receive a fitness watch that links to a mobile phone application (App). The fitness watch and mobile App will allow the exercise specialist to provide greater support and feedback throughout the programme.
The current study aims to investigate whether telemedical monitoring in patients with terminal heart failure and an implanted left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has an influence on LVAD-associated complications, hospitalization rates and quality of life. This is a prospective observational study. Patients with terminal heart failure and an implanted LVAD, where the indication for telemonitoring has already been stated by the attending physician are included in the study. Written informed consent is obtained from all patients. The telemedical monitoring is carried out by the West German Center for Applied Telemedicine (WZAT) and includes a standardized telephone interview every 3 days. In addition, all patients are equipped with an INR measuring device, a body scale and a clinical thermometer by WZAT. The data is documented in an electronic case file (medPower®). In the event of abnormalities, the West German Heart and Vascular Center (WHGZ) is contacted, and all necessary measures are initiated.
Telemedicine is a solution to overcome distance and ensure the provision of healthcare services. This study aims to investigate the effects of conducting outpatient clinic visits remotely, for patients living with insulin pumps.
Rater blinded, multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study comparing mean 24 hour systolic blood pressure of eligible hypertensive patients in the TELEMONITORIN group versus the USUAL CARE group, at 6 months after inclusion.
Keeping in mind the rising number of cases in Egypt and the strain they put on hospital infrastructure, the idea of home isolation and follow up for COVID 19 positive cases has been adopted in many countries and was approved by World Health Organization (WHO) and Egyptian Ministry of health (MOH). Telehealth can help to mitigate this risk by minimizing the amount of face-to-face interactions. The WHO mentioned telemedicine among essential services in "strengthening the Health Systems Response to COVID-19" policy. The aim in this study is to study the effectiveness of telemedicine in managing mild COVID cases regarding isolation measures, symptoms, medications adherence, and reporting of red flags and side effects.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. Several recent papers on the pandemic recognized obesity as a risk factor for the COVID-19 infection. Therefore, an effective treatment for obesity even during COVID-19 outbreak is needed. Bariatric surgery, is considered an effective treatment in the reduction of obesity-related comorbidities and mortality risk. However, during Covid-19 phase 1 (lockdown) the near totality of elective non-oncologic procedures, including bariatric surgery, has been postponed, and all the outpatients' visits too. Therefore, phase 1 led to completely change the way of managing the pre-operative multidisciplinary visits considering the hospital limitation access and the restriction. In the present study the investigators explored the use of telemedicine as a possible strategy to face this new situation. Specifically, this study aims to test the efficacy of an online structured protocol based on pre-operative multidisciplinary assessment using telemedicine instruments. In particular, the primary end point is to test the feasibility of a telematics pre-operative work-up. The secondary end points are evaluating patient's compliance and satisfaction to the online assessment.
To achieve World Health Organization 2030 goals of hepatitis C elimination it is mandatory to document after treatment sustained virological response (SVR). Currently, patients after completing treatment do not show up for SVR assessment. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telemedicine-based model of care associated with dried blood spot testing at home to assess hepatitis C sustained virological response after treatment compared to the traditional model of care.
