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.

Effects and Acceptability of a 1-Week Home-Based Virtual Reality Training for Supporting the Management of Stress and Anxiety: Randomized Pilot Trial

Effects and Acceptability of a 1-Week Home-Based Virtual Reality Training for Supporting the Management of Stress and Anxiety: Randomized Pilot Trial

First, in past studies, experienced clinicians only administered VR interventions in their offices or the hospital. However, recently the introduction of standalone and mobile VR systems, due to their high ease of use and low cost, has made this technology feasible for daily use at home [35]. Therefore, home VR training represents a promising new intervention for remote psychological support [36-38], including relaxation training [39,40].

Experiences With an In-Bed Real-Time Motion Monitoring System on a Geriatric Ward: Mixed Methods Study

Experiences With an In-Bed Real-Time Motion Monitoring System on a Geriatric Ward: Mixed Methods Study

The global increase in emergency hospital admissions of older individuals is expected to continue, driven by ongoing demographic shifts. Currently, older adults make up approximately two-thirds of hospital inpatients, with up to 50% of this population experiencing some degree of cognitive impairment, including dementia-related conditions [1-3].

Revisits, Readmission, and Mortality From Emergency Department Admissions for Older Adults With Vague Presentations: Longitudinal Observational Study

Revisits, Readmission, and Mortality From Emergency Department Admissions for Older Adults With Vague Presentations: Longitudinal Observational Study

Older adults are vulnerable to deconditioning and hospital acquired infection, as well as developing delirium and accelerated cognitive decline [16-19]. These issues underscore the importance of measuring the trade-off between admitting and discharging a patient.

Nurses’ Perspectives and Experiences of Using a Bed-Exit Information System in an Acute Hospital Setting: Mixed Methods Study

Nurses’ Perspectives and Experiences of Using a Bed-Exit Information System in an Acute Hospital Setting: Mixed Methods Study

Currently, older adults account for approximately two-thirds of all hospital inpatients, and up to 50% of this group show signs of cognitive impairment, including forms associated with dementia [2,3]. Patients with cognitive impairment often find it challenging to adhere to standardized care plans in the hospital setting [1].

Performance of an Electronic Health Record–Based Automated Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index Score Calculator: Cohort Study in the Emergency Department

Performance of an Electronic Health Record–Based Automated Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index Score Calculator: Cohort Study in the Emergency Department

While many patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) are at increased risk of cardiovascular complications, a significant minority have a low risk of short-term adverse outcomes and no requirement for hospital-level therapies [1]. There is now strong evidence to recommend outpatient management of PE patients identified as low-risk using tools like the Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) [2-5].

A Mixed Reality–Based Telesupervised Ultrasound Education Platform on 5G Network Compared to Direct Supervision: Prospective Randomized Pilot Trial

A Mixed Reality–Based Telesupervised Ultrasound Education Platform on 5G Network Compared to Direct Supervision: Prospective Randomized Pilot Trial

This prospective randomized controlled pilot study was conducted at a tertiary academic hospital in South Korea from November 2023 to December 2023. The study aimed to compare an MR-based telesupervised ultrasound education platform using private 5 G networks with traditional in-person training for novice doctors. We recruited medical doctors from the Samsung Medical Center interested in ultrasound education with supervision through online and offline bulletin boards.

Resilience Training Web App for National Health Service Keyworkers: Pilot Usability Study

Resilience Training Web App for National Health Service Keyworkers: Pilot Usability Study

Of the 8 participants who completed this study, 3 (37.5%) worked in the hospital’s intensive care unit, 1 (12.5%) worked in the emergency department, and 4 (50%) worked in other undisclosed areas of the hospital. Most participants (6/8, 75%) rated their current role stress as “sometimes” stressful, while 1 of 8 (12.5%) said “occasionally” stressful and 1 of 8 (12.5%) said “very” stressful.
