Abstract
Introduction
There remains the need to develop comprehensive organisational care models supported by digital health interventions (DHIs) to manage chronic conditions in primary healthcare.
Objective
this review aimed to identify and map methods, interventions and outcomes investigated regarding the introduction of novel complex integrated care models supported by DHIs in the European primary care setting, as well as the level of integration achieved.
Methods
a scoping review to identify literature from 2013 to 2023 in the European context was conducted across PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science. DHIs description, care models and outcomes were reported using the PRISMA- ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines.
Results
A total of 53 studies was included. The models introduced, along with a DHI, at least one innovation in their structure or in the modality of care delivery: either a new figure (44%), interprofessional collaboration (37%), new functions like person-centred care (59%) or population stratification (11%). As regarding the DHIs, 56% implemented monitoring/management platforms and apps for chronic conditions. The most frequent combination of care model-DHI was the introduction of an app/platform, supported by phone calls/texts and electronic health records, paired with the introduction of a new healthcare professional/person centred care/ multidisciplinary team. All the studies reaching statistically significant outcomes introduced, along with one or more DHIs, either a new figure or a multidisciplinary team as part of the organizational change to support the technology.
Conclusions
novel complex integrated care models are focusing on introducing multidisciplinary perspectives and personalization of care, in line with the complex needs of chronic patients. The predominant development of monitoring/management platforms for patients is a further confirmation of this trend. Future research efforts should focus on the investigation of the effectiveness of current complex integrated care models integrating DHIs.
期刊介绍：
Health Policy and Technology (HPT), is the official journal of the Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine (FPM), a cross-disciplinary journal, which focuses on past, present and future health policy and the role of technology in clinical and non-clinical national and international health environments.
HPT provides a further excellent way for the FPM to continue to make important national and international contributions to development of policy and practice within medicine and related disciplines. The aim of HPT is to publish relevant, timely and accessible articles and commentaries to support policy-makers, health professionals, health technology providers, patient groups and academia interested in health policy and technology.
Topics covered by HPT will include:
- Health technology, including drug discovery, diagnostics, medicines, devices, therapeutic delivery and eHealth systems
- Cross-national comparisons on health policy using evidence-based approaches
- National studies on health policy to determine the outcomes of technology-driven initiatives
- Cross-border eHealth including health tourism
- The digital divide in mobility, access and affordability of healthcare
- Health technology assessment (HTA) methods and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of clinical and non-clinical health technologies
- Health and eHealth indicators and benchmarks (measure/metrics) for understanding the adoption and diffusion of health technologies
- Health and eHealth models and frameworks to support policy-makers and other stakeholders in decision-making
- Stakeholder engagement with health technologies (clinical and patient/citizen buy-in)
- Regulation and health economics
