Barriers and Enablers to Using a Patient-Facing Electronic Questionnaire: A Qualitative Theoretical Domains Framework Analysis

In a 2-year interrupted time series study involving 890 patients and 237 clinicians, the e AMS significantly improved the frequency of asthma control assessment, the ratio of controller to reliever medication prescriptions, and delivery of AAPs to patients [5]. However, the previsit questionnaires were used by only 61.2% (551/890) of patients [5]. A detailed uptake analysis identified several quantitative predictors of questionnaire uptake [13].

Development and Early Feasibility of Chatbots for Educating Patients With Lung Cancer and Their Caregivers in Japan: Mixed Methods Study

Development and Early Feasibility of Chatbots for Educating Patients With Lung Cancer and Their Caregivers in Japan: Mixed Methods Study

Distress among patients with cancer and their caregivers has received increasing attention from medical staff. Early palliative care (EPC) from the time of diagnosis has been shown to have a positive impact on quality of life [1]. Through EPC, patients and their caregivers gain experience in several areas, including prompt and personalized symptom management [2]. Nonetheless, patient education remains a problem for health care providers [3].

Mind the App: Considerations for the Future of Mobile Health in Canada

Mind the App: Considerations for the Future of Mobile Health in Canada

Although generally innocuous, such apps may still carry a degree of risk for patients. Consumer apps that draw associations between symptoms and disease might prompt patients to make uninformed health decisions, whereas the collection of personal health information might raise general privacy and data security concerns. However, potentially deeper challenges exist. Health Canada’s draft guidance proposes to regulate Sa MD according to a manufacturer’s labeled intended use for the product [6].

A Patient-Oriented App (ThessHF) to Improve Self-Care Quality in Heart Failure: From Evidence-Based Design to Pilot Study

In the setting of the COVID-19 pandemic, patients with severe comorbidities have a significantly higher risk of severe or even deadly disease progression [34]. It is thus of paramount importance that these patients are shielded from exposure to the virus [35]. In this situation, m Health solutions for the remote monitoring and care of these patients may indeed become a crucial step in safeguarding this fragile group of patients.

Applying a Human-Centered Design to Develop a Patient Prioritization Tool for a Pediatric Emergency Department: Detailed Case Study of First Iterations

The pediatric emergency department (PED) of Lille University Hospital has a capacity of approximately 30,000 patients per year. A total of 10 doctors and 8 nurses (plus residents and trainees) work in the department to take care of the patients. The department is currently equipped with Res Urgences (Berger-Levrault), a patient management software that tracks patients from their arrival in the PED through discharge.

A Retrospective Analysis of Provider-to-Patient Secure Messages: How Much Are They Increasing, Who Is Doing the Work, and Is the Work Happening After Hours?

The patient portal (POS) at Mayo Clinic gives patients the ability to view their laboratory results, radiology reports, medical images, office and hospital notes, and specialty consultations. In addition, POS has messaging capability for patients and providers to communicate asynchronously by sending messages through a secure server, which also sends these messages to the electronic health record (EHR). Patients must log in securely to POS to send a message.
