COVID-19 testing provides information regarding exposure and transmission risks, guides preventative measures (e.g., if when to start end isolation quarantine), identifies opportunities for appropriate treatments, helps assess disease prevalence (1). At-home rapid antigen tests (at-home tests) are a convenient accessible alternative laboratory-based diagnostic nucleic acid amplification (NAATs) SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes (2-4). With emergence of SARS-CoV-2 B.1.617.2 (Delta) B.1.1.529...
This study assesses the association between underlying health conditions and delaying medical care during COVID-19 pandemic. An online cross-sectional survey administered by OutbreaksNearMe.org on Momentive.ai collected self-reported data from April 27 to June 2, 2020 May 10 13, 2021. We used weighted multivariable logistic regressions assess status, adjusting for demographics. Of 312,661 total responses (99.6% completion rate), 17.1% reported delayed care. Compared good health, those with...
Objectives. To determine the association between parental characteristics and MMR (measles–mumps– rubella) vaccination status of children in United States. Methods. We conducted a cross-sectional study from July 2023 to April 2024 using digital health survey via OutbreaksNearMe, weighted target national population characteristics. analyzed responses 19 892 parents younger than 5 years examine self-reported (i.e., sociodemographics, politics, COVID-19 status) children’s rates logistic...
Although COVID-19 vaccination plans acknowledge a need for equity, disparities in two-dose vaccine initiation have been observed the United States. We aim to assess if disparity patterns are emerging completion. gathered (n = 843,985) responses between February and November 2021 from web survey. Individuals self-reported demographics status. Dose completion rates were calculated incorporating survey weights. A multi-variate logistic regression assessed association income completing...
COVID-19 vaccination rates among children have stalled, while new coronavirus strains continue to emerge. To improve child rates, policymakers must better understand parental preferences and reasons for their children. Cross-sectional surveys were administered online 30,174 US parents with at least one of vaccine eligible age (5–17 years) between January 1 May 9, 2022. Participants self-reported willingness vaccinate refusal, answered additional questions about demographics, pandemic related...
To develop and validate an International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM)-based algorithm to identify cases stillbirth using electronic healthcare data.We conducted a retrospective study claims data from three Data Partners (healthcare systems insurers) in the Sentinel Distributed Database. Algorithms were developed ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes potential stillbirths among females aged 12-55 years between July 2016 June 2018. A random sample medical...
Abstract Purpose Lymphoma is a health outcome of interest for drug safety studies. Studies using administrative claims data require the accurate identification lymphoma cases. We developed and validated an International Classification Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD‐10‐CM)‐based algorithm to identify in healthcare data. Methods three‐component patients aged ≥15 years who were newly diagnosed with Hodgkin (HL) or non‐Hodgkin (NHL) from January 2016 through July 2018 among...
