NCT07669168
The Health Ahead Comparative Effectiveness Study is a pragmatic, parallel-arm interventional platform that systematically compares successive changes to preventive health screening - each isolated as a single variable against current practice - on the path toward a fully automated screening system deployable in any environment, including the most isolated and resource-limited communities. Each comparison is evaluated with a common set of engagement, behavior-change, experience, cost, and longitudinal outcome measures, allowing results to accumulate on a consistent yardstick across the life of the platform. The first comparison evaluates static versus interactive personalized health report delivery. Subsequent pre-planned comparisons, added by protocol amendment, evaluate mobile community versus fixed laboratory screening; and a hybrid medical-droid plus human-delivery model versus human-only screening. All participants are simultaneously enrolled in the 100-Year Human Aging Study and the Human Observatory Study, contributing individual longitudinal and population-level causal inference data through those protocols.
NCT02841930
The ActionHealthNYC program is a year-long demonstration program to improve access to high quality health care for NYC resident immigrants who do not qualify for public insurance with incomes at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). The purpose of this study is to determine whether improved access and care coordination services provided through the ActionHealth NYC program allows participants to have easier access to healthcare (particularly primary care and preventive services) than non-participants.
NCT07206914
This study looks at where cancer patients treated at Delafontaine Hospital live and how far they have to travel for care. By mapping patients' home addresses (anonymized), the research will show how distance, transportation, and social factors affect access to cancer treatments and support services. The goal is to better understand inequalities in access to care and to improve patient support in the future.
NCT07149012
This study is designed to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) could be applied to support surgical care in Sudan during the ongoing armed conflict. The conflict has disrupted hospital operations, displaced surgical teams, and limited access to specialists and modern technology. The investigators are conducting a survey of Sudanese surgeons working in public, private, military, and conflict-zone hospitals to assess awareness of AI, interest in its application, and perceived challenges. In addition, in-depth interviews with senior surgeons and residents are being performed to further explore perspectives on AI in surgical care. This study represents one of the first attempts to investigate the role of AI in surgery within an active conflict setting in Africa. Findings from this research are expected to inform the design of AI tools that are tailored for fragile health systems, including offline and low-bandwidth environments.
NCT07138105
This is a national survey of doctors in Sudan who are involved in providing surgical care. The aim is to understand their awareness, experiences, and opinions about using artificial intelligence (AI) in surgery. The survey includes all cadres-house officers, medical officers, registrars, residents, specialists, consultants, and general practitioners who perform surgical procedures-working in public, private, NGO, and military hospitals across Sudan. Participants are asked about their familiarity with AI, barriers to its use (such as poor infrastructure, lack of training, or cost), interest in training, and possible uses in Sudan's health system, especially in conflict-affected areas. The study does not test any AI tools but collects information to help design future AI solutions that work offline, in low-bandwidth conditions, and meet the needs of surgeons and surgical teams in Sudan.
NCT06700980
The purpose of this qualitative study is to find out which technological translation tools can be used to improve Dutch-speaking care in all Brussels out-of-hours primary care services.
NCT04198272
This protocol describes an evaluation of the CyberRwanda program, a digital health tool designed with and for adolescents in Rwanda, with a focus on successful futures, broadly, and family planning and reproductive health, more specifically. CyberRwanda is a tablet-based system that provides information on family planning and reproductive health through a set of vignettes. The program also allows users to order and purchase contraceptives, with pick up at nearby participating pharmacies. The program will be implemented in schools in eight districts in Rwanda. The investigators will conduct a 3-arm, cluster, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of CyberRwanda on three primary outcomes: uptake of a contraceptive method, initiation of childbearing, and HIV testing. The investigators will compare two implementation models (facilitated and self-service) to a control arm at the school (cluster) level. The study will enroll 60 schools (20 per arm) and 100 students per school, and follow students for 24 months.
NCT06148779
To improve chronically ill patients' health and quality of life, long-standing and continuous treatment is needed at an acceptable cost. The purpose of this study was to compare utilization of digital versus face-to-face delivered osteoarthritis (OA) treatment in the 21 different county councils of Sweden that are responsible for providing healthcare to the residents.
NCT02522624
The overall purpose of the study is to better understand how the investigators previously developed decision support (DS) tool can help people make decisions about health insurance plans available through the federal exchanges created by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The investigators will evaluate the DS tool compared to the federal government website. The investigators will also evaluate the feasibility of disseminating this tool. There are two primary aims to be completed in this project: (1) examine the reach and effectiveness of the health insurance DS tool; and (2) collect stakeholders' feedback to improve the likelihood of implementation of the DS tool.
NCT02235597
The investigators seek to improve health systems so underserved people, patients without insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, as well as self pay and their caregivers can better access health care for common problems and acute care needs (same day appointments).
NCT01986790
The overall goal of the study is to better understand how communication strategies can help people make decisions about health insurance plans. This study aims to: * (Aim 1) Examine currently uninsured individuals' understanding of terminology and details of health insurance plans; * (Aim 2) Apply three recommended strategies for communicating information about health insurance plans; * (Aim 3) Test the effects of these strategies in a randomized experiment.
