Reverse Colocated Integrated Care Intervention Among Persons With Severe Persistent Mental Illness...

Mental Illness PersistentChronic Disease5 more

This study evaluated whether patients with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) who received coordinated co-located behavioral health and primary care services were more likely to improve health outcomes after 12 months compared to SPMI patients who receive only behavioral health services from the local mental health authority (LMHA) Tropical Texas Behavioral Health (TTBH).The study employed a randomized control trial (RCT) design where intervention participants receiving integrated behavioral health were compared to control participants receiving the usual care provided within an LMHA for SPMI patients. Patients were placed in each group using a randomized number process. Demographic and health outcome data were collected from intervention and control participants at baseline. Health outcome data was subsequently collected at 6-month and 12-month follow-up points.

Patient Priorities Care (PPC)

Multiple Chronic Conditions

Patient Priorities Care aligns healthcare decision-making and care by all clinicians with patients' own health priorities. Patient Priorities Care involves not only the health outcome goals that patients want to achieve, but also their preferences for healthcare. This approach is about aligning what outcomes patients want from their healthcare with what they are willing and able to do to achieve these outcomes. The approach begins with a member of the healthcare team helping patients identify their health outcome goals and their care preferences and preparing them to interact with their clinicians around these goals and preferences. The goals and preferences are transmitted to the patient's clinicians who use them in decision-making and communication with the patient and other clinicians.

Sí Texas Hope Family Health Center

Chronic DiseaseHypertension4 more

This study evaluated whether uninsured patients living at or below 200% of the federal poverty level who received enhanced, culturally-relevant, integrated behavioral health services were more likely to improve health outcomes after 12 months compared to similar patients receiving usual care from Hope Family Health Center (HFHC), a charitable community clinic. The study employed a randomized control trial (RCT) design where intervention participants receiving integrated care at HFHC were compared to control participants receiving usual care at HFHC. Patients were placed in each group using simple random assignment. Demographic and health outcome data were collected from intervention and control participants at baseline. Health outcome data were subsequently collected at 6-month and 12-month follow-up points.

Minnesota Care Coordination Effectiveness Study

Chronic DiseaseMulti-morbidity1 more

Medical care has improved greatly over the past 50 years. Treatments for most medical conditions can help us lead longer and healthier lives, but there are still problems. Many patients with two or more conditions see many different doctors and sometimes take more medications than needed. These patients can feel lost and confused. In addition, non-medical issues involving housing, food, transportation, employment, income, support from others, and language barriers can have a large impact on our health. In Minnesota, many primary care clinics are using a method called care coordination to improve the health of patients who have a number of chronic diseases (some examples of chronic diseases include diabetes, heart disease, asthma and depression). With care coordination, a nurse in the clinic helps the various doctors, clinics, and specialists to work together, in the interest of the patient. In some clinics, a social worker also helps with care coordination. These social workers help with issues like housing, transportation, or employment. Care coordination can help reduce patient confusion. It also can improve health and lower patient burdens and costs of getting medical care. To help find out what types of care coordination are most successful, we are proposing a study. Our plan is to track the health of patients receiving care coordination and compare two types: A. Care coordination done by a nurse or other clinic staff B. Care coordination where a licensed social worker also assists the patient In this study, we will measure many things, including: Control of chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, asthma, and depression Hospitalizations Emergency department visits Use of medications and diagnostic tests Use of specialty care General health status Patient satisfaction and access to care Use of shared decision-making (where the doctor and the patient make treatment decisions together) Patient burden (how much time and effort the patient spends trying to get healthy) Patients' out-of-pocket medical costs This project will be important to patients because it could reduce confusion and fragmented care while improving all the items above. Those improvements will be more likely because this project takes advantage of engagement with patients and others. We have four patient partners who will help conduct the study and interpret and broadly share the results. The project was developed with the input from patients, clinic leaders, people from state government, and experts on health and quality care. By measuring a wide variety of outcomes for the adults receiving coordination services in these clinics, we hope to identify the specific actionable information that will allow these and other clinics to improve their services for these patients with complex needs. Throughout the project, we will communicate our findings to clinics and health systems. As a result, many people may receive better care.

Cohort Study in South China

Chronic Disease

Healthy Chinese residents from South China will be recruited and followed up for at least 4 years to evaluate the association between climate, diet and lifestyle and risks for the development of chronic diseases. Physical examination, questionnaire survey and biological sample collection will be conducted at baseline and the incidence of chronic diseases will be investigated during follow-up.

Effect of Patient Education Videos on Perioperative Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Endoscopic Sinus...

Chronic Rhinosinusitis (Diagnosis)

Chronic rhinosinusitis treatment consists of medical management and surgical intervention. Improving patient education can positively impact perioperative patient experiential outcomes such as anxiety, pain and satisfaction. However, online education materials are often too complex, inaccurate or misleading. The objective of this study was to determine if patient education videos at an appropriate reading level would improve perioperative anxiety in patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery.
