Restorative Care

Restorative Care

Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care.
Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution itself.

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-II

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-II

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care. Here are a few more healthcare professionals.
Physical Therapist
A physical therapist (PT) aims to restore function or prevent additional impairment in a patient following an injury or disease. Massage, heat, cold, water, sonar waves, exercises, and electrical stimulation are some treatments used by PTs to treat...

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Area of Science:

Health Informatics
Human-Computer Interaction
Rehabilitation Engineering

Background:

Pressure injuries are debilitating wounds resulting from prolonged pressure, necessitating effective prevention strategies.
Daily preventive care and health promotion are crucial for managing and reducing pressure injury incidence.
Existing prevention methods may benefit from innovative technological solutions to enhance user engagement and collaboration.

Purpose of the Study:

To validate a novel platform utilizing gamified collaborative practices for pressure injury prevention.
To assess the usability, user experience, and system promotion ability of the developed platform.
To explore the potential of gamification in fostering collaborative practices for health management.

Main Methods:

Design Science methodology was employed for the platform's development.
The platform was evaluated by 16 wheelchair users.
Usability was measured using the System Usability Scale (SUS), user experience with the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ), and system promotion via the Net Promoter Score (NPS).

Main Results:

The platform achieved a SUS score of 73.28, indicating good usability.
UEQ ratings were excellent for efficiency, dependability, stimulation, and novelty; good for attractiveness; and above-average for perspicuity.
The Net Promoter Score (NPS) was 62.5%, with users providing feedback for system improvement and confirming gamification's positive impact on collaborative practices.

Conclusions:

The gamified platform shows promise as a tool for preventing pressure injuries.
The system's design and gamified approach positively influenced collaborative health practices among users.
The platform's adaptability suggests potential application in managing other chronic health conditions requiring continuous care.
