Chronic disease patients are adopting self-management techniques, such as using mobile health applications (apps). As GPs the main caregivers of chronic patients, obtaining GP perspectives regarding patient use apps is vital in understanding longer term value and feasibility these apps.The aim was to determine perceptions their current potential roles by how patient-focused affect management.Ten participated semi-structured, face-to-face interviews, which focused on of, involvement in, apps....
Cancer survivors are at an increased risk of experiencing physical and psychological ill-effects following cancer treatment. Rural a greater future health problems diagnosis compared to their urban counterparts. Physical activity has been targeted as promotion priority in survivors. Research indicates that large portion do not meet recommendations. The purpose this quasi-randomized controlled trial was test the effectiveness online 12-week walking intervention designed for survivors, explore...
Introduction Gout is increasing despite effective therapies to lower serum urate concentrations 0.36 mmol/L or less, which, if sustained, significantly reduces acute attacks of gout. Adherence urate-lowering therapy (ULT) poor, with rates less than 50% 1 year after initiation ULT. Attempts increase adherence in gout patients have been disappointing. We aim evaluate the effectiveness use a personal, self-management, ‘smartphone’ application (app) achieve target people hypothesise that...
Gout is a form of chronic arthritis caused by elevated serum uric acid (SUA) and culminates in painful gout attacks. Although effective acid-lowering therapies exist, adherence low. This partly due to the lack support for patients self-manage their disease. Mobile health apps have been used self-management conditions. However, not all are developed with patients, limiting effectiveness.The objective our study was collect feedback from design an app.Two descriptive qualitative studies were...
Little empirical research exists on how best to teach fundamentals of care prelicensure nursing students. This pilot aims develop this evidence base.A 6-week intervention embedded explicitly, focusing the integrated nature such care, within a first-year curriculum at an Australian university. The involved two components: (a) using framework structure and guide teaching shape students' conceptual understanding (b) restructuring clinical skills sessions reinforce understanding.Preliminary...
Background Physical activity has numerous associated benefits for cancer survivors. Compared with their urban counterparts, rural Australians experience a health disadvantage, including poorer survival rate after diagnosis of cancer. Objective The aims this study were to test the effectiveness an online 12-week walking intervention designed survivors and explore region-specific psychological predictors behavior change. Methods This was quasi-randomized controlled trial resource according...
Physical activity has numerous associated benefits for cancer survivors. Compared to their urban counterparts, rural and remote Australians experience a health disadvantage, including poorer survival rate after the diagnosis of cancer. The purpose this qualitative study was (a) investigate factors that motivated or inhibited walking in participants during 12-week intervention (b) physical behavior change three months post-intervention. Ten survivors living areas South Australia participated...
Cancer survivorship rates have increased in developed countries largely due to population ageing and improvements cancer care. Survivorship is a neglected phase of treatment often associated with adverse physical psychological effects. There need for broadly accessible, non-pharmacological measures that may prolong disease-free survival, reduce or alleviate co-morbidities enhance quality life. The aim the Steps TowaRd Improving Diet Exercise (STRIDE) study evaluate effectiveness an...
