The Evolution of Medical Student Competencies and Attitudes in Digital Health Between 2016 and 2022: Comparative Cross-Sectional Study

The Evolution of Medical Student Competencies and Attitudes in Digital Health Between 2016 and 2022: Comparative Cross-Sectional Study

As health care systems become more digital, it’s essential to assess health care professionals’ competencies and skills to ensure they can adapt to new practices, policies, and workflows effectively [25]. According to current literature, medical students globally have positive attitudes toward learning about digital health and consider the introduction of digital health topics into the medical curricula to be important [26-34].

Factors Influencing the Implementation and Adoption of Digital Nursing Technologies: Systematic Umbrella Review

In the context of pressing challenges, such as workforce shortages and aging populations [1], digital technologies have emerged as a potential means to improve the working conditions of health care professionals while enhancing the quality of care [2,3].

Toward a Smartphone-Based and Conversational Agent–Delivered Just-in-Time Adaptive Holistic Lifestyle Intervention for Older Adults Affected by Cognitive Decline: Two-Week Proof-of-Concept Study

Toward a Smartphone-Based and Conversational Agent–Delivered Just-in-Time Adaptive Holistic Lifestyle Intervention for Older Adults Affected by Cognitive Decline: Two-Week Proof-of-Concept Study

Indeed, in recent years, a growing number of mobile and digital health interventions [10,11] have been developed to address modifiable risk factors associated with cognitive decline. Notable examples include the Maintain Your Brain platform [12-14] or the Gray Matters app [15-17], which combines psychoeducational content with self-tracking options across multiple domains such as nutrition, cognition, physical activity, and sleep.

Family Caregivers of Individuals With Neuromuscular Disease Participating in a Randomized Controlled Trial of a Digital Peer Support Program: Nested Qualitative Study

Family Caregivers of Individuals With Neuromuscular Disease Participating in a Randomized Controlled Trial of a Digital Peer Support Program: Nested Qualitative Study

This study builds on our work, in which we feasibility-tested a digital peer support program for caregivers of individuals who were ventilator-assisted, many of whom had NMD [3]. Our aim was to gather insights into the experiences and perspectives of family caregivers and their mentors participating in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a digital peer support program [23] to iteratively improve future programs.

Acceptability and Utility of a Web-Based Patient-Completed Clinical Decision Aid for the Differential Diagnosis of Transient Loss of Consciousness: Qualitative Interview Study

Acceptability and Utility of a Web-Based Patient-Completed Clinical Decision Aid for the Differential Diagnosis of Transient Loss of Consciousness: Qualitative Interview Study

A number of respondents (eg, TL150) noted that the interface was accessible for people who were “not a hundred percent au fait with the […] computer” (ie, low self-evaluated digital literacy). There were no technical issues raised with the exception of 1 respondent (TL173) who had trouble with an outdated internet browser rather than with the tool itself. The simple format with few options and little text per page was highlighted as making navigation straightforward.

Evaluating the Impact of Pediatric Digital Mental Health Care on Caregiver Burnout and Absenteeism: Longitudinal Observational Study

Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) in academic and commercial settings have proven effective in treating common mental and behavioral health problems in children [18-22], offering accessible and cost-effective solutions compared with standard care [23,24]. Our previous research demonstrates that a commercially available DMHI can effectively improve mental health in children and adolescents [18,19].

It is Time to Realize the Promise of the Digital Mental Health Transformation: Application for Population Mental Health

This framework includes the following components: digital access, community screening, evidence-based self-care, and connection to screening-informed higher levels of care. Leveraging digital health technology facilitates large tracts of population accessing assessments, resources, and when needed, higher levels of care. The Pew Research Center reports that 93% of adults in the US use the internet [22]. Digital access has improved dramatically among groups with the highest rates of mental health concerns.
