Effectiveness of Self-Training With a Web-Based Digital Health Application Versus Physiotherapy in the Treatment of Disorders of the Patella: Randomized Controlled Trial

Effectiveness of Self-Training With a Web-Based Digital Health Application Versus Physiotherapy in the Treatment of Disorders of the Patella: Randomized Controlled Trial

This RCT is the first among the 11 RCTs to complete the treatment of the prespecified number of patients. At the time of writing this manuscript, the 10 remaining RCTs are still in the stage of data collection. In this work, different strategies for treating diseases of the patella (ICD-10 M22) were compared between an active control group (CG) that received the current standard therapy in Germany (CG SHI-PT) and an intervention group (IG) using the DHA Mawendo (IG DHA).

Improving Diet Quality of People Living With Obesity by Building Effective Dietetic Service Delivery Using Technology in a Primary Health Care Setting: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

The chat2 (Connecting Health and Technology 2) study is a 1-year randomized controlled trial (RCT). Consenting participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to an intervention or minimal intervention control group. Figure 1 shows the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) study design. Assessments will occur at 0, 6, and 12 months with the primary outcome assessed at 12 months. Study design with randomization to two groups: intervention and control groups.

A Rent Subsidy and Identity Capital Intervention for Youth Exiting Homelessness: Protocol for the Transitioning Youth Out of Homelessness 2.0 Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

A Rent Subsidy and Identity Capital Intervention for Youth Exiting Homelessness: Protocol for the Transitioning Youth Out of Homelessness 2.0 Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

In March 2019 (after several months of prestudy collaboration), we began the Transitioning Youth Out of Homelessness (TYOH) study, a 2.5-year pilot community-based mixed method randomized controlled trial (RCT) with youth (mean age 22 years) from 3 cities in the province of Ontario [9]. All participants (n=24) received portable rent subsidies (ie, subsidies not tied to a specific location) for 2 years; 13 were randomly assigned an adult mentor.

Assessment of an App-Based Sleep Program to Improve Sleep Outcomes in a Clinical Insomnia Population: Randomized Controlled Trial

Assessment of an App-Based Sleep Program to Improve Sleep Outcomes in a Clinical Insomnia Population: Randomized Controlled Trial

However, this research still followed the traditional CBT-I structure (ie, 6 weekly sessions lasting 90-120 minutes) and was not tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) [31]. While mindfulness is often incorporated as part of the cognitive component of CBT-I [32], the Headspace Sleep Program positions mindfulness as a foundational approach, introducing it first as a tool for building awareness of sleep habits and patterns.

A Smartphone App Self-Management Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Randomized Controlled Trial of Clinical Outcomes

A Smartphone App Self-Management Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Randomized Controlled Trial of Clinical Outcomes

We conducted a single-center, 3-arm parallel pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) to explore the effect of a smartphone app self-management program on clinical health outcomes in adults with COPD on a longitudinal basis of 12 months. The main components of this self-management program were monthly education, symptom tracking, communication with a health care professional, goal setting, and weekly motivational messages from the app.

Impact of a 6-Week Postpartum Text Messaging Program (Essential Coaching for Every Mother) at 6 Months: Follow-Up Study to a Randomized Controlled Trial

Impact of a 6-Week Postpartum Text Messaging Program (Essential Coaching for Every Mother) at 6 Months: Follow-Up Study to a Randomized Controlled Trial

In the published results of this randomized controlled trial (RCT), it was found that primiparous women who received the Essential Coaching for Every Mother program had higher parenting self-efficacy at 6 weeks postbirth than those who did not receive the intervention [11]. Additionally, all mothers (regardless of parity) who received the intervention had lower postpartum anxiety symptoms than mothers who did not receive the intervention [11].

Feasibility, Acceptability, and Potential Effects of a Digital Oral Anticancer Agent Intervention: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Feasibility, Acceptability, and Potential Effects of a Digital Oral Anticancer Agent Intervention: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

In support of this, a standardized patient education and follow-up intervention for oral chemotherapy by Tokdemir and Kav [33] successfully increased medication adherence SE after the intervention (66.39 vs 71.04; P The aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) was to document the feasibility and acceptability of the experimental intervention. Pilot studies are critically important as a first step to address practical, logistical, and methodological issues that may arise.
