The goal was to provide insights into users' acceptability of the intervention, on whether the intervention was successfully implemented, and on the intervention's preliminary efficacy, thus benefiting practitioners and researchers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This paper presents a mixed methods feasibility study at a large chain-wide health care provider in the Netherlands. The intervention entailed outsourcing noncritical reusable medical devices and introducing a web portal for device management. A questionnaire gauged perceived ordering and delivery times, satisfaction with the ordering and delivery process, compliance with safety and hygiene certification, and effects on the care delivery process. Qualitative data in the form of observations, documentation, and interviews were used to identify implementing challenges. Using on-site stocktaking and data from information systems, we analyzed the utilization, costs, and rental time of medical devices before and after the intervention for wheelchairs and anti-pressure ulcer mattresses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Looking at the acceptability of the intervention, a high user satisfaction with the ordering and delivery process was reported (rated on a 5-point Likert scale). With respect to preliminary efficacy, we noted a reduction in the utilization of wheelchairs (on average, 1106, SD 106 fewer utilization d/mo), and a halted increase in the utilization of anti-pressure ulcer mattresses. In addition, nurses who used the web portal reported shorter ordering times for wheelchairs (-2.7 min) and anti-pressure ulcer mattresses (-3.1 min), as well as shorter delivery times for wheelchairs (-0.5 d). Moreover, an increase in device certification was reported (average score of 1.9, SD 1.0), indicating higher levels of safety and hygiene standards. In theory, these improvements should translate into better outcomes in terms of costs and the quality of care. However, we were unable to establish a reduction in total care costs or a reduced rental time per device. Furthermore, respondents did not identify improvements in safety or the quality of care. Although implementation challenges related to the diverse supply base and complexities with different care financers were observed, the overall implementation of the intervention was considered successful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;This study confirms the feasibility of our intervention, in terms of acceptability, implementation success, and preliminary efficacy.","PeriodicalId":51757,"journal":{"name":"Interactive Journal of Medical Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10548324/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41167432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep learning mimicked experts' visual assessments of proper exercise postures. The effectiveness of the mobile app was evaluated by comparing it with exercise videos, a popular at-home workout choice.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Twenty participants were recruited without squat exercise experience and divided into an experimental group (EXP) with 10 individuals aged 21.90 (SD 2.18) years and a mean BMI of 20.75 (SD 2.11) and a control group (CTL) with 10 individuals aged 22.60 (SD 1.95) years and a mean BMI of 18.72 (SD 1.23) using randomized controlled trials. A data set with over 20,000 squat videos annotated by experts was created and a deep learning model was trained using pose estimation and video classification to analyze the workout postures.

The syndrome assessment model had an optimal likelihood cut-off point sensitivity of 46% (95% CI 38.4-54.6) and specificity of 98% (95% CI 96.7-98.9). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.87 (95% CI 0.83-0.91). The level of agreement between the mHealth-supported syndrome assessment and the COVID-19 test results was moderate (κ=0.54, 95% CI 0.46-0.60).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>In this study, the level of agreement between the mHealth-supported syndromic assessment and the actual laboratory-confirmed results for COVID-19 was found to be reasonable, at 89%. The mHealth-supported syndromic assessment of COVID-19 represents a potential alternative method to the standard laboratory-based confirmatory diagnosis, enabling the early detection of COVID-19 cases in hard-to-reach communities, and informing patients about self-care and disease management in a cost-effective manner. These findings can guide future research efforts in developing and integrating digital health into continuous active surveillance of emerging infectious diseases.</p>","PeriodicalId":51757,"journal":{"name":"Interactive Journal of Medical Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10464850/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10472881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the release of free text for secondary use is hindered by concerns surrounding personally identifiable information (PII), as protecting individuals' privacy is paramount. Therefore, it is necessary to deidentify free text to remove PII. Manual deidentification is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. Numerous automated deidentification approaches and systems have been attempted to overcome this challenge over the past decade.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>We sought to develop an accurate, web-based system deidentifying free text (DEFT), which can be readily and easily adopted in real-world settings for deidentification of free text in EMRs. The system has several key features including a simple and task-focused web user interface, customized PII types, use of a state-of-the-art deep learning model for tagging PII from free text, preannotation by an interactive learning loop, rapid manual annotation with autosave, support for project management and team collaboration, user access control, and central data storage.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>DEFT comprises frontend and backend modules and communicates with central data storage through a filesystem path access. The frontend web user interface provides end users with a user-friendly workspace for managing and annotating free text. The backend module processes the requests from the frontend and performs relevant persistence operations. DEFT manages the deidentification workflow as a project, which can contain one or more data sets. Customized PII types and user access control can also be configured. The deep learning model is based on a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory-Conditional Random Field (BiLSTM-CRF) with RoBERTa as the word embedding layer. The interactive learning loop is further integrated into DEFT to speed up the deidentification process and increase its performance over time.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>DEFT has many advantages over existing deidentification systems in terms of its support for project management, user access control, data management, and an interactive learning process. Experimental results from DEFT on the 2014 i2b2 data set obtained the highest performance compared to 5 benchmark models in terms of microaverage strict entity-level recall and F<sub>1</sub>-scores of 0.9563 and 0.9627, respectively. In a real-world use case of deidentifying clinical notes, extracted from 1 referral hospital in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, DEFT achieved a high microaverage strict entity-level F<sub>1</sub>-score of 0.9507 on a corpus of 600 annotated clinical notes. Moreover, the manual annotation process with preannotation demonstrated a 43% increase in work efficiency compared to the process without preannotation.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>DEFT is d","PeriodicalId":51757,"journal":{"name":"Interactive Journal of Medical Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10492176/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10576704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
