Abstract Digital health interventions (DHIs) have the potential to help growing number of chronic disease patients better manage their everyday lives. However, guidelines for systematic development DHIs are still scarce. The current work has, therefore, objective propose a framework design and evaluation (DEDHI). DEDHI is meant support both researchers practitioners alike from early conceptual DHI models large-scale implementations in healthcare market.
Recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) could yield new insights into potential causes multiple sclerosis (MS) and factors influencing its course as use AI opens possibilities regarding interpretation big data from not only a cross-sectional, but also longitudinal perspective. For each patient with MS, there is vast amount multimodal being accumulated over time. But for application related technologies, these need to be available machine-readable format collected...
Background In the last few years, several studies have focused on describing and understanding how virtual coaches (ie, coaching program or smart device aiming to provide support through a variety of application contexts) could be key drivers for health promotion in home care settings. As there has been enormous technological progress field artificial intelligence data processing past decade, use gains an augmented attention considerations medical innovations. Objective This scoping review...
Health care delivery is undergoing a rapid change from traditional processes toward the use of digital health interventions and personalized medicine. This movement has been accelerated by COVID-19 crisis as response to need guarantee access services while reducing risk contagion. Digital scale-up now also vital achieve population-wide impact: it will only accomplish sustainable effects if when deployed into regular services. The question how can be successfully achieved has, however, not...
The Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) is a standard for business process modeling that very common in professional practice due to its expressiveness, the well defined meta model possibility of workflow integration. This research article aims apply BPMN representation clinical pathways order utilize benefits context. provides set generic elements what makes it necessary extend language by domain-specific concepts from field (e.g., evidence indicators). Therefore, extension method...
Background: Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system that requires complex, differential, and lifelong treatment strategy, which involves high monitoring efforts accumulation numerous medical data. A fast broad availability care, as well patient-relevant data stronger integration patients participating care providers into complex process desirable. The aim ERDF-funded project "Integrated Care Portal Sclerosis" (IBMS) was to develop pathway-based...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) as a chronic, degenerative autoimmune disease of the central nervous system has longitudinal and heterogeneous course with increasing treatment options risk profiles requiring constant monitoring growing number parameters. Despite guidelines, there is lack strategic individualised pathways, including respective quality indicators (QIs). To address this, we systematically developed transparent, traceable, measurable QIs for MS monitoring. Through literature review,...
Introduction: Demographic change poses major challenges for medical care in Germany. Structurally weak regions particular are already suffering from gaps care, which being exacerbated by the increasing demand healthcare services and simultaneous shortage of specialised staff. Regional networks, follow integrated approach, offer a promising solution improving making it more efficient through greater cooperation between stakeholders. However, networking is often context- region-specific,...
To successfully scale-up telemedicine initiatives (TIs), communities play a crucial role. empower fulfilling this role and increase end users' acceptance of TIs, support tools (from now on entitled artifacts) are needed that include specific measures to implement scale up telemedicine. Addressing need, the article introduces Telemedicine Community Readiness Model (TCRM). The TCRM is designed help decision-makers in create favorable environment facilitates implementation TIs. practical tool...
Abstract Requests for a coordinated response during the COVID-19 pandemic revealed limitations of locally-operating public health agencies (PHAs) and have resulted in growing interest their digitalization. However, digitalizing PHAs – i.e., transforming them technically organizationally toward needs both employees citizens is challenging, especially federally-managed local government settings. This paper reports on project that develops evaluates continuous (vs. staged) maturity model,...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality in Europe, with potentially more than 60 million deaths per year, an age-standardized rate morbidity-mortality higher men women, exceeding from cancer. Heart attacks and strokes account for four out every five CVD fatalities globally. After a patient overcomes acute cardiovascular event, they referred rehabilitation to help them restore most their normal cardiac functions. One effective way provide this activity regimen is via...
Clinical Pathways (CPs) can be seen as business processes of hospitals or clinical institutions. Modeling these pathways is an emerging field research, it provides promising benefits for systems integration, quality management and documentation. The Business Process Model Notation (BPMN) a range process-related concepts but naturally lacks in representing specific aspects from the CP domain. Therefore, BPMN extension BPMN4CP was designed previous research project. In accordance with...
In recent years, the Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) has evolved to one of most applied modelling General Purpose Languages in Management discipline. Due its application different domains, it becomes frequently necessary extend BPMN by domain-specific concepts. Extending fosters an adequate communication between system engineers domain experts enhances semantically correct representation domain. Therefore, meta-model provides extension mechanism. However, there is a remarkable...
Abstract Aim The vCare system is a virtual coach that involves physical and cognitive telerehabilitation daily life monitoring system. This pilot study aims to evaluate the test for Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients analyze usability satisfaction level of their quality (QoL). Subject methods Twenty PD were randomized, 10 into group focused on personalized home [motor rehabilitation (4 days/week 4 months)], while control (10 patients) continued clinical standard at clinic. A pre-post...
Abstract Especially older persons are prone to disabilities and chronic diseases. These conditions pose a worldwide challenge, leading deteriorating health, economic strain, loss of life, decline in the quality life (QoL). Therefore, healthcare institutions seek enhance their strategies for disease prevention management uphold well-being community. This leads need regain independence improve QoL properly rehabilitate patients. Virtual Coaches (VCs) form Embodied Conversational Agents seen as...
Home-based rehabilitation after an acute episode or following exacerbation of a chronic disease is often problematic with clear lack continuity care between hospital and home care. Secondary prevention essential element long-term where strategies oriented toward risk reduction, treatment adherence, optimization quality life need to be applied. Frail sometimes isolated, the patient fails adhere proposed post-discharge clinical pathway due appropriate clinical, emotional, informational...
(1) Background: Persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) are often characterized as ideal adopters of new digital healthcare trends, but it is worth thinking about whether and which pwMS will be targeted served by a particular eHealth service like patient portal. With our study, we wanted to explore needs barriers for subgroups their caregivers when interacting services in care daily living. (2) Methods: This study comprises results from two surveys: one collecting data relatives (as informal...
