Filter by:If taken every day, PrEP is an effective method for preventing HIV. However, many prescribed PrEP in the U.S. do not take it every day, as prescribed. The goal of this study is to develop and test an intervention, facilitated by a mobile app, meant to improve adherence to PrEP. To that end, 60 individuals prescribed PrEP who do not take their PrEP every day as prescribed will be recruited. Participants will complete an initial research interview, receive a one-on-one PrEP adherence session with an adherence coach, and complete follow-up interviews at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. In addition, some participants will be randomized to receive access to a mobile app and adherence coaching via the app for 12-months. The primary outcome is self-reported adherence to PrEP. This study will examine whether this intervention is effective at improving adherence to PrEP, is feasible to use, and found acceptable by those who use it.
Background: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has been suggested as a useful tool in emergency medicine for diagnosis and treatment of reversible causes. However, in prehospital setting performing ultrasound and the translation of the findings can be challenging. As new prehospital ultrasound devices offer the possibility for remote supervision, the impact of tele-supervision on time to diagnosis of critically ill patients is unclear. Aims: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of tele-supervision on the time of POCUS in prehospital critically ill patients by air rescue physicians. Methods: In total 100 critically ill patients suffering from acute dyspnoea, circulatory failure or trauma, which are treated by air rescue physicians will be included in this study. Duration of ultrasound performance as well as altered treatment strategies will be analyzed.
The purpose of this study is to validate the teleconsultation of anesthesia in anesthetic low risk patients and undergoing outpatient surgery.
