Assessment of Health System Readiness and Quality of Dementia Services in Peru: Protocol for a Qualitative Study With Stakeholder Interviews and Documentation Review

Assessment of Health System Readiness and Quality of Dementia Services in Peru: Protocol for a Qualitative Study With Stakeholder Interviews and Documentation Review

In the vast majority of cases [18-22], support available for individuals with chronic conditions in Peru, including dementia, comes from family members, predominantly women [23], who commonly lack access to information and primary or specialized dementia care services. A study across various LMICs identified high psychological stress and caregiver burden, particularly among female carers of people with dementia [24].

Patient Experiences With a Mobile Self-Care Solution for Low-Complex Orthopedic Injuries: Mixed Methods Study

Patient Experiences With a Mobile Self-Care Solution for Low-Complex Orthopedic Injuries: Mixed Methods Study

The Dutch acute health care system faces substantial challenges due to limited resources and a rising number of patients requiring in-hospital care [1,2]. To alleviate this pressure, virtual fracture clinics have been introduced for Orthopedic and Trauma surgery patients [3]. Direct discharge (DD) is the most basic part of a virtual fracture clinic, concerning solely low-complex, isolated, stable musculoskeletal injuries.

Establishing Syndromic Surveillance of Acute Coronary Syndrome, Myocardial Infarction, and Stroke: Registry Study Based on Routine Data From German Emergency Departments

Establishing Syndromic Surveillance of Acute Coronary Syndrome, Myocardial Infarction, and Stroke: Registry Study Based on Routine Data From German Emergency Departments

The AKTIN registry accounts for EDs of all 3 levels of care according to the German system of staged emergency care, which divides EDs into extended, comprehensive, or basic emergency care facilities. For each level, the Federal Joint Committee, a key stakeholder overseeing and providing legal guidance for healthcare delivery in the German health care system, defined specific requirements like necessary clinical departments, intensive care capacities, and medical equipment [3].

Understanding the Engagement and Interaction of Superusers and Regular Users in UK Respiratory Online Health Communities: Deep Learning–Based Sentiment Analysis

Understanding the Engagement and Interaction of Superusers and Regular Users in UK Respiratory Online Health Communities: Deep Learning–Based Sentiment Analysis

Participation in OHCs for individuals living with LTCs could address part of the health care service demand and indirectly improve access to health care [6]. The analysis of the role of OHCs in health promotion and management of LTCs indicates that there might be a positive effect on patients’ perception of social support, health literacy, clinical outcomes, and behavior change [7,8].

Text Messaging Versus Postal Reminders to Improve Participation in a Colorectal Cancer Screening Program: Randomized Controlled Trial

Text Messaging Versus Postal Reminders to Improve Participation in a Colorectal Cancer Screening Program: Randomized Controlled Trial

In the contemporary era of digital communication, mobile phones have become indispensable tools that can influence various aspects of health care delivery. SMS text messaging has emerged as a versatile and convenient channel for health care professionals to connect with patients. Its utility lies in its accessibility, affordability, and effectiveness as a platform for conveying health-related information, reminders, and motivation [7-9].

Using Laboratory Test Results for Surveillance During a New Outbreak of Acute Hepatitis in 3-Week- to 5-Year-Old Children in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Ireland, and Curaçao: Observational Cohort Study

Using Laboratory Test Results for Surveillance During a New Outbreak of Acute Hepatitis in 3-Week- to 5-Year-Old Children in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Ireland, and Curaçao: Observational Cohort Study

The 3-week- to 5-year-old age group was of primary interest. Any measurements for an individual who had previously had an elevated measurement of ALT or AST during the study period were removed. In Wales (United Kingdom), pooled data were collected for 4 different health boards. Details on the different health boards can be found in the supplement. The monthly incidence of children meeting the case definition for non–A-E hepatitis was also collected.

SARS-CoV-2 Infection Risk by Vaccine Doses and Prior Infections Over 24 Months: ProHEpiC-19 Longitudinal Study

SARS-CoV-2 Infection Risk by Vaccine Doses and Prior Infections Over 24 Months: ProHEpiC-19 Longitudinal Study

Another study analyzed the severity of reinfections in a cohort of health care workers [17]. A recent review found that studies tended to focus on the characteristics and risk factors of SARS-Co V-2 reinfection, particularly during the Omicron wave, but did not compare the severity of reinfection and primary infection before vaccine availability. This review suggested that reinfections are generally milder than primary infections, with lower viral loads and fewer self-reported symptoms.
