Health care providers often counsel prostate cancer patients about treatment options with medical terminology. However, studies have demonstrated a severe lack of comprehension these terms, particularly in underserved populations. It was hypothesized that video-based educational tool would significantly improve the understanding key terms related to health predominantly lower literacy population.A software application developed by various experts, including urologists and human-computer...
Abstract Background Individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) and bipolar (BD) have particularly high rates of chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP) are also more likely to receive prescription opioids for their pain. However, there been no known studies published date that examined opioid treatment patterns among individuals schizophrenia. Methods Using electronic medical record data across 13 Mental Health Research Network sites, diagnoses MDD ( N = 65,750), BD 38,117) or schizophrenia...
Currently, the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (henceforth "autism") is 1 in 36, an increasing trend from previous estimates. In 2015, United States adopted a new version (International Classification Diseases, 10th Revision) World Health Organization coding system, standard for classifying medical conditions. Our goal was to examine how transition this system impacted diagnoses 10 healthcare systems. We obtained information electronic records and insurance claims data July 2014...
BACKGROUND Patients diagnosed with prostate cancer are often counseled about treatment options the use of terms that part “core vocabulary” cancer. It is hypothesized predominantly lower literacy patients would demonstrate a severe lack comprehension terms, thus validating findings previous single‐institution study. METHODS A previously developed survey was used to evaluate understanding related urinary, bowel, and sexual function. The administered by trained evaluators at 2 safety net...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Biospecimens are tools that have the potential to improve early identification and treatment for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) bipolar (BPD). Unfortunately, most biobanks lack racial/ethnic diversity. One challenge including a diverse sample of youth is recruiting engaging families. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> We sought better understand facilitators barriers participation in biospecimen research among group parents...
Patient reported outcome measures (PROM) can improve patient care and be crucial for symptom tracking especially during disease outbreaks. FLU-PRO Plus is a validated PROM used to track viral respiratory symptoms. Our study aimed evaluate the feasibility of using FLU-PRO© Plus, symptoms across three healthcare systems.The prospective, longitudinal recruited adults between February-May 2021 from HealthPartners Institute (HP), Kaiser Permanente Georgia (KPGA), Mid-Atlantic States (KPMAS)....
ABSTRACT Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the extent which presence chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) impacts likelihood that patients with diagnoses depression will initiate treatment compared those without CNCP. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort Kaiser Permanente Georgia members older than 18 years who received diagnosis depression. Demographics and medical history were extracted from electronic health record database. Members further classified by or absence CNCP...
InFLUenza Patient-reported Outcome (FLU-PRO Plus) is a 34-item patient-reported outcome instrument designed to capture the intensity and frequency of viral respiratory symptoms. This study evaluates whether FLU-PRO Plus responses could discriminate between symptoms coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) influenza-like illness (ILI) with no COVID diagnosis, as well forecast progression.FLU-PRO was administered daily for 14 days. Exploratory factor analysis used reduce on first day 3 factors...

71 Background: Patients diagnosed with prostate cancer are often counseled about treatment options by healthcare providers who commonly use terms that part of the ‘core’ vocabulary cancer. We hypothesized a predominantly lower-literacy patient population would demonstrate severe lack comprehension terms, which validate findings Kilbridge et al. (JCO, 2009) found profound in single institution series. Methods: A previously developed survey was used to evaluate understanding related urinary,...
