The Motivations of Citizens to Attend an eHealth Course in the Public Library: Qualitative Interview Study

The Motivations of Citizens to Attend an eHealth Course in the Public Library: Qualitative Interview Study

I think it’s a shame that there’s no choice anymore. There’s obviously a generation of us that needs to have a transition that’s a little bit smooth, and not like: bam, next year everything’s just different. I think a lot of people my age have problems with that. For most, this digital experience was work-related where they were trained in specific, mostly simple computer programs useful for their jobs.

Applying Patient and Health Professional Preferences in Co-Designing a Digital Brief Intervention to Reduce the Risk of Prescription Opioid–Related Harm Among Patients With Chronic Noncancer Pain: Qualitative Analysis

Applying Patient and Health Professional Preferences in Co-Designing a Digital Brief Intervention to Reduce the Risk of Prescription Opioid–Related Harm Among Patients With Chronic Noncancer Pain: Qualitative Analysis

Clinical guidelines recommend behavioral and nonpharmacological treatments and interdisciplinary rehabilitation for the treatment of chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) (eg, Dowell et al [1]). However, there is a substantial gap between research evidence and clinical practice, referred to as one of the “valleys of death” [2] in the management of CNCP.

Impact of Computer-Mediated Versus Face-to-Face Motivational-Type Interviews on Participants’ Language and Subsequent Cannabis Use: Randomized Controlled Trial

Impact of Computer-Mediated Versus Face-to-Face Motivational-Type Interviews on Participants’ Language and Subsequent Cannabis Use: Randomized Controlled Trial

Amrhein et al [13] found that the language used by individuals during motivational interviews can help predict which individuals will change a target behavior and which individuals will resist behavior change. Language statements that convey a commitment to behavior change are referred to as “change talk,” and language statements that convey resistance to behavior change are referred to as “sustain talk”. Amrhein’s system for coding commitment language assesses both types of statements [13].

Cardiac Self-Efficacy Improvement in a Digital Heart Health Program: Secondary Analysis From a Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

Cardiac Self-Efficacy Improvement in a Digital Heart Health Program: Secondary Analysis From a Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

As maintaining a healthy lifestyle is difficult for many adults [5], 1 method of CVD prevention and management is participation in behavioral interventions focused on healthy lifestyle modifications [4]. Position statements from the US Preventive Services Task Force state that lifestyle modification programs that emphasize a healthy diet and physical activity have a wide variety of cardiovascular health benefits and CVD risk reduction among individuals with and without a diagnosis of CVD [6-8].

Implementation of the Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes Model for Hypertension Education of Frontline Health Care Workers in the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria: Explanatory Sequential Mixed Methods Evaluation

Every ECHO session comprised a presession knowledge quiz, introduction, didactic presentation by domain experts, a case presentation by health care workers at an HTN Program site, a postsession knowledge quiz, and a reaction survey. The m Doc Healthcare team worked with a selected HTN Program Site before each session to select and present a case for each ECHO session. Prospective participants registered in advance for each session using an web-based form that included demographic characteristics.

Primary Tumors of the Brain and Central Nervous System in Adults and Children in Sub-Saharan Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Primary Tumors of the Brain and Central Nervous System in Adults and Children in Sub-Saharan Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review

The insights from this review can facilitate a holistic approach to effective planning and resource allocation, including the establishment of cancer registries in the region. Our scoping review protocol is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the epidemiology and distribution of CNS tumors in SSA, considering regional and sociodemographic variations.

Mobile Health App for Adolescent Asthma Self-Management: Development and Usability Study of the Pulmonary Education and Knowledge Mobile Asthma Action Plan

For instance, Farzandipour et al [5] designed a smartphone-based asthma self-management app with educational content, data recording, reminders, and physician communication features, which was rated as “good” in usability and positively impacted patients’ self-management knowledge.

Physical Activity Measurement Reactivity Among Midlife Adults With Elevated Risk for Cardiovascular Disease: Protocol for Coordinated Analyses Across Six Studies

Physical Activity Measurement Reactivity Among Midlife Adults With Elevated Risk for Cardiovascular Disease: Protocol for Coordinated Analyses Across Six Studies

PA measurement reactivity has been observed in a subset of studies to date [25,29-31], and some PA researchers consider reactivity a critical source of bias that warrants increased attention and mitigating actions, such as requiring extra days of observation to get used to the PA monitor or removing the first 1-2 days of PA observation from analyses [30].

Preventing Premature Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Discontinuation and Sexually Transmitted Infections Among Men Who Have Sex With Men (Project PEACH): Protocol for a Prospective Cohort Study

The enrollment visit consisted of an informed consent process, a computer-assisted self-interview behavioral survey, HIV and STI testing, training on using the study app, and a counseling session to include pre- and posttest HIV prevention information and a discussion about Pr EP and STI PEP options. Participants who completed an enrollment visit were compensated US $125 regardless of whether they subsequently participated in the study.

A Conversational Agent Using Natural Language Processing for Postpartum Care for New Mothers: Development and Engagement Analysis

A Conversational Agent Using Natural Language Processing for Postpartum Care for New Mothers: Development and Engagement Analysis

We used a multipronged approach to optimize discharge planning and maintain postpartum connection for patients delivering at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP), described in detail by Gaulton et al [18]. We called this program of optimized discharge planning and increased postpartum support “Healing at Home.”
