The increasing prevalence of diabetes and costly long-term complications associated with poor glycemic control are issues facing health services worldwide. Diabetes self-management, the support care providers, is critical for successful outcomes, however, frequent clinical contact costly. Text messages via short message service (SMS) have advantage instant transmission at low cost and, given ubiquity mobile phones, may be ideal platform delivery self-management support. A tailored text...

Interventions to support patients effectively self-manage their condition have potential reduce risk costly debilitating complications. The utilisation mobile phones deliver self-management allows for patient-centred care at frequency intensity that desire from outside clinic environment.

Abstract Background Monitoring the presence of commensal and pathogenic microorganisms in human oral, nasal hand niches as determinants for respiratory tract infections is critical global relevance was evident during COVID-19 pandemic. However, community-based surveillance difficult because current sampling methods are not optimal a wide age range participants, particularly young children. We designed platform minimally invasive self-sampling at home assessed its use longitudinal monitoring...
Abstract Longitudinal, community-based sampling is important for understanding prevalence and transmission of respiratory pathogens. Using a minimally invasive method, the FAMILY Micro study monitored oral, nasal hand microbiota families 6 months. Here, we explore participant experiences opinions. A mixed methods approach was utilised. quantitative questionnaire completed after every timepoint to report levels discomfort pain, as well time taken collect samples. Participants were also...
