  • Chapter H: Delivering Decision Aids on the Internet
    Delivering Decision Aids on the Internet 2012 UPDATED CHAPTER H: DELIVERING DECISION AIDS ON THE INTERNET SECTION 1: AUTHORS/AFFILIATIONS Aubri Hoffman (lead) Dartmouth Centers for Health and Aging USA Robert J. Volk (co-lead) The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center USA Martin Härter University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf Germany Linda Li University of British Columbia Canada Hilary Llewellyn-Thomas Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth USA Anton Saarimaki Ottawa Hospital Research Institute & University of Canada Ottawa Christine Stirling The University of Tasmania, School of Nursing Australia SECTION 2: CHAPTER SUMMARY What is this dimension? Delivering decision aids on the Internet is defined here as the process of using the Internet to provide some or all components of a patient decision aid (PtDA) to individuals (e.g., patients, caregivers, clinicians, etc.) involved in the process of choosing between two or more medically- appropriate healthcare options. This definition is intended to differentiate this process from Internet-delivered general health education for patients (e.g., health information websites), and Internet-delivered clinical practice guidelines for clinicians. What is the theoretical rationale for including this dimension? Several theories in cognitive psychology, decision psychology, and communication emphasize the value of using the Internet to provide broad and long-term dissemination of information that can be targeted and tailored to patients’ needs and preferences. In addition, several theories of active, discovery, and social learning inform the design of interactive PtDAs to effectively provide information and support. Furthermore, theories of dissemination and implementation emphasize the need for the right information (rapidly updated), delivered to the right person (tailored), at the right time (in advance, during, and after a decision needs to be made).

However, the degree to which people use mobile devices to help them make medical decisions remains unclear. Objective: The objective of this study is to explore factors associated with self-reported use of tablets or smartphones to support medical decision making in a nationally representative sample of US adults. Methods: Cross-sectional data from participants in the 2018 Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS 5, Cycle 2) were evaluated. There were 3504 responses in the full HINTS 5 Cycle 2 data set; 2321 remained after eliminating respondents who did not have complete data for all the variables of interest. The primary outcome was use of a tablet or smartphone to help make a decision about how to treat an illness or condition. Sociodemographic factors including gender, race/ethnicity, and education were evaluated. Additionally, mobile health (mHealth)- and electronic health (eHealth)-related factors were evaluated including (1) the presence of health and wellness apps on a tablet or smartphone, (2) use of electronic devices other than tablets and smartphones to monitor health (eg, Fitbit, blood glucose monitor, and blood pressure monitor), and (3) whether people shared health information from an electronic monitoring device or smartphone with a health professional within the last 12 months.

  • Breaking the Barriers to Specialty Care Practical Ideas to Improve Health Equity and Reduce Cost
    Breaking the Barriers to Specialty Care Practical Ideas to Improve Health Equity and Reduce Cost BRIEF Striving for Equity in 1 2 3 4 5 Specialty Care STRIVING FOR EQUITY IN SPECIALTY CARE | BRIEF 1 About this series of briefs This series aims to highlight the urgent need for the health care sector to make progress towards achieving equity in outcomes from diseases that require specialty care and to identify effective solutions for the payers, providers, policy makers, patient organizations, and community actors who will be critical to creating change. The series was researched and written by FSG with the support and partnership of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation. Findings were informed by an extensive review of clinical and field studies and more than 60 interviews with field experts, health care providers, and representatives from insurance companies. This work builds on the exceptional research in this field done by many others, referenced throughout this report. A full list of references and contributors can be found at the end of each brief. To access all the briefs in this series, please visit www.fsg.org/publications/breaking-barriers-specialty-care. About Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation The mission of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation is to promote health equity and improve the health outcomes of populations disproportionately affected by serious diseases and conditions by strengthening community-based health care worker capacity, integrating medical care and community-based supportive services, and mobilizing communities in the fight against disease. In 2015, the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation launched the Specialty Care for Vulnerable Populations Initiative, which aims to address inequities in access to and utilization of specialty care services in the United States.

  • Electronic Health, Telemedicine, and New Paradigms for Training and Care
    CE: Alpana; COH/120508; Total nos of Pages: 13; COH 120508 REVIEW CURRENT OPINION Electronic health, telemedicine, and new paradigms for training and care Catherine S. Todda, Stephen J. Millsb, and Anh L. Innesb Purpose of review HIV prevention and care is changing rapidly; guideline revisions and programmatic scale-up require innovative approaches to in-service training and care extension to improve provider practice and care access. We assessed recent (12 months) peer-reviewed publications on electronic health (eHealth), telemedicine, and other innovative provider-targeted interventions for HIV-related care. Recent findings Key developments included systems merging electronic medical records (EMR) with provider clinical decision aids to prompt action, demonstration eHealth, and telemedicine projects, reviews or descriptions of technology to improve connectivity in lower resource settings, and a few trials on provider-centered interventions. Most publications were program reports and few data were available regarding efficacy of eHealth interventions for providers on patient HIV-related outcomes, notably identification and management of antiretroviral treatment failure in Kenya. Better evidence is needed for strategies to train providers and care extenders with the goal to improve impact of HIV prevention and care interventions. Summary Rapid technology introduction and expansion may change the paradigm for improving provider knowledge and practice. Although new, the developments are promising for HIV provider-targeted eHealth and innovations

There is also uncertainty as to whether mHealth can improve patient-centered outcomes such as patient engagement or patient satisfaction. One principal challenge behind the ªeffectivenessº research in this field is a lack of common understanding about what it means to be effective in the digital space (ie, what should constitute a relevant outcome and how best to measure it). In this viewpoint, we call for interdisciplinary, conceptual clarity on the definitions, methodologies, and patient-centered outcomes frequently used in mHealth research.

  • Telemedicine with Clinical Decision Support for Critical Care
    Mackintosh et al. Systematic Reviews (2016) 5:176 DOI 10.1186/s13643-016-0357-7 RESEARCH Open Access Telemedicine with clinical decision support for critical care: a systematic review Nicola Mackintosh1* , Marius Terblanche2,3, Ritesh Maharaj4, Andreas Xyrichis5, Karen Franklin2, Jamie Keddie2, Emily Larkins5, Anna Maslen5, James Skinner5, Samuel Newman2, Joana Hiew De Sousa Magalhaes1 and Jane Sandall1 Abstract Background: Telemedicine applications aim to address variance in clinical outcomes and increase access to specialist expertise. Despite widespread implementation, there is little robust evidence about cost-effectiveness, clinical benefits, and impact on quality and safety of critical care telemedicine. The primary objective was to determine the impact of critical care telemedicine (with clinical decision support available 24/7) on intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital mortality and length of stay in adults and children. The secondary objectives included staff and patient experience, costs, protocol adherence, and adverse events. Methods: Data sources included MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library databases, Health Technology Assessment Database, Web of Science, OpenGrey, OpenDOAR, and the HMIC through to December 2015. Randomised controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies were eligible for inclusion. Eligible studies reported on differences between groups using the telemedicine intervention and standard care. Two review authors screened abstracts and assessed potentially eligible studies using Cochrane guidance. Results: Two controlled before-after studies met the inclusion criteria. Both were assessed as high risk of bias. Meta-analysis wasnotpossibleaswewereunabletodisaggregatedatabetweenthetwostudies.Onestudyusedanon-randomised stepped-wedge design in seven ICUs.
