Patients’ Acceptance of Smartphone Health Technology for Chronic Disease Management: A Theoretical Model and Empirical Test

Patients’ Acceptance of Smartphone Health Technology for Chronic Disease Management: A Theoretical Model and Empirical Test

Due to its large impact on patients’ health status and health care expenditure, there is a growing interest worldwide in developing programs to support consumers to self-manage chronic diseases [1]. As the leading preventable risk factor for myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, and heart failure, hypertension is an ongoing challenge to health care systems [2].

“I Always Vet Things”: Navigating Privacy and the Presentation of Self on Health Discussion Boards Among Individuals with Long-Term Conditions

In addition, the value of sharing personal information online for fellow patients and health care professionals was consistently highlighted by participants. The process of navigating privacy online is outlined in the following sections. For many participants, maintaining their anonymity online was a pivotal aspect of their usage of forums. As “Gemma” (type 2 diabetes, 31-35 years) described it, the diabetes forum she used was “my place and that’s my space to talk about things.”

Assessing the Ability of a Large Language Model to Score Free-Text Medical Student Clinical Notes: Quantitative Study

Assessing the Ability of a Large Language Model to Score Free-Text Medical Student Clinical Notes: Quantitative Study

We compared these scores to standardized patients’ scoring of the clinical notes. We hypothesized that Chat GPT would be more accurate than standardized patients. To our knowledge, this is the first study to assess the ability of a GPT program to score medical students’ standardized, patient-based, clinical free-text notes. This was a single institution, retrospective study. Standardized patients were people who volunteered to interact with medical students to assist in their clinical training.

Patients and Stakeholders’ Perspectives Regarding the Privacy, Security, and Confidentiality of Data Collected via Mobile Health Apps in Saudi Arabia: Protocol for a Mixed Method Study

Numerous studies have underscored the correlation between patients’ awareness and the risk of data breaches [7-9]. End users bear responsibility for the security and privacy of their data, which must be upheld [4,10]. As the primary stakeholders in the health care system, patients have a contractual relationship with health care providers, who are entrusted with ensuring the safety and confidentiality of patients’ health information.

Data Visualization Support for Tumor Boards and Clinical Oncology: Protocol for a Scoping Review

The usage of these established tools not only supports the preparation and execution of MTBs but also increases the consistency of therapy recommendations between molecular tumor conferences, even for patients with rare cancers and mutation patterns [21]. Research indicates that differing processes and tools may lead to inconsistent therapy recommendations [22].

Patients’ Attitudes Toward the Use of Artificial Intelligence as a Diagnostic Tool in Radiology in Saudi Arabia: Cross-Sectional Study

Patients are important stakeholders in the decision-making process and understanding their perspective is necessary to ensure widespread implementation of these technological advances. By studying patients’ attitudes, we can uncover potential barriers and facilitators to the integration of AI, ultimately informing strategies to enhance patient engagement, trust, and satisfaction.
