Primary Healthcare Services

1.9K
Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

14.1K
Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.9K
At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Area of Science:

  • Clinical Trials
  • Remote Data Collection
  • Cognitive Training

Background:

  • Remote data collection expands research access for populations with mobility or time constraints.
  • Utilizing diverse remote modalities (passive and active) enriches data quality and accuracy.
  • This study details the design, methodology, and compliance of two randomized controlled trials employing multiple remote data collection techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and compliance of remote data collection in clinical trials.
  • To examine moderators and mechanisms of cognitive training effects on everyday functioning.
  • To identify successes and challenges in implementing complex remote data collection protocols.

Main Methods:

  • Two randomized controlled trials (EFIT and ENACT) involving 382 participants aged 55-85.
  • Multi-modal data collection over 6-9 months, including laptop-based assessments, daily smartphone ecological momentary assessments (EMA), and optional biomarker/neuroimaging measures.
  • Participants engaged in cognitive training and completed various cognitive, lifestyle, psychosocial, and health assessments remotely.

Main Results:

  • Low attrition rates (15%-29%) were observed across studies.
  • High compliance (>90%) for laptop and EMA assessments, with missing data primarily due to technical issues.
  • Common reasons for attrition included time commitment, intervention dislike, and technological difficulties.

Conclusions:

  • Remote data collection is a feasible method for complex clinical trial protocols.
  • Participant and staff feedback highlights areas for improvement in future remote studies.
  • Remote methods offer a valuable tool for recruiting and retaining middle-aged adults in early identification and prevention studies for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
