Blended Care Intervention for Cancer Aftercare in General Practice Centers: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Blended Care Intervention for Cancer Aftercare in General Practice Centers: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Implementing the CAG in general practice in a blended care setting could provide a solution to the growing demand for cancer aftercare by promoting healthy recovery and improving self-management of problems, ultimately reducing the care needs of survivors of cancer. This study protocol outlines a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the cost-effectiveness and associated process evaluation of a blended care approach offering the CAG in general practice.

The Adoption of a COVID-19 Contact-Tracing App: Cluster Analysis

The Adoption of a COVID-19 Contact-Tracing App: Cluster Analysis

CTAs can be defined as “software that can be installed on a user’s device, such as a smartphone, to notify the user when he or she comes into contact with a person infected with SARS-Co V-2” [1]. In the Netherlands, the CTA used is called Corona Melder (CM). The CM app uses Bluetooth to record the people someone is around for more than 15 minutes at a distance of less than 1.5 m [2].

Adding Mobile Elements to Online Physical Activity Interventions for Adults Aged Over 50 Years: Prototype Development Study

Roughly, the applied systematic approach was divided into a 6-step prototype development phase, a 2-step effect evaluation phase, and a 2-step implementation phase, which is shown in Figure 1. In this paper, the prototype development and pilot-testing of the interventions is described.

Factors Associated With Intention and Use of e–Mental Health by Mental Health Counselors in General Practices: Web-Based Survey

This was a cross-sectional study among MHCs using a web-based questionnaire (in Lime Survey; Lime Survey Gmb H). Participants in the study had to be practicing MHCs working for at least 8 hours a week in a general practice. Convenience sampling was used. The Dutch e Health platforms Ksyos, Therapieland, and Minddistrict sent a newsletter and email message to their customer field (total >1000) to invite potential participants.

Adding Mobile Elements to Online Physical Activity Interventions Targeted at Adults Aged 50 Years and Older: Protocol for a Systematic Design

Active Plus is a web-based computer-tailored intervention program to promote PA among people aged older than 50 years [11,15]. Preceded by a questionnaire comprising questions on factors such as current PA levels and perceived PA beliefs and barriers, a computer-tailoring program generates and sends personalized advice, tips, and exercises based on these responses.

For example, it gives a more in-depth understanding of whether providing participants a choice, such as which module to follow and when to follow a module, is beneficial for intervention use. A 2-group randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted in the Netherlands. For this study, observational data of the intervention group of this RCT, called My Lifestyle Coach, was used. Therefore, the control group data were excluded.

Energy-dense snacks are generally high in sugar and/or fat and could, therefore, serve as a proxy for these 2 nutrients [22]. Fish consumption was also chosen as a target outcome, as this was mentioned quite frequently in the pilot study as a way to eat (more) healthily and it was a measurable dietary outcome; in addition, according to the Dutch dietary guidelines, one should consume fish once a week.

Web-based interventions might be appropriate to be integrated as a first step in a stepped-care approach as it offers a low-intensive intervention first before referring to interventions that are more intensive. Such first-step, low-intensive interventions might be sufficient to meet the personal needs of a large proportion of survivors with relatively mild complaints and are less costly [11].
