Background: Mental and behavioral disorders affect approximately 28% of the adult population in Germany per year, with treatment being provided through a diverse health care system. Yet there are access and capacity problems in outpatient mental health care. One innovation that could help reduce these barriers and improve the current state of care is the use of mobile health (mHealth) apps, known in Germany as Digitale Gesundheitsanwendungen (DiGA).

Objectives: School-based hearing screening serves as a critical resource for children in rural areas to be screened and connected to hearing healthcare. Telemedicine interventions in schools have shown promise in connecting children to providers; however, there is limited research on systematic adaptation and deployment of telemedicine in rural schools. Obtaining community perspectives and preferences on school-based telemedicine hearing evaluation is essential to ensure such interventions are deployable in a rural context.

Purpose: The development of home-based clinical interventions and healthcare supported by digital tools has rapidly advanced in recent years, promising improvements in preventive and personalized treatment, especially for aging chronic patients. However, many systems are launched without feedback from healthcare experts, essential for understanding their strengths, limitations, and areas for improvement. This study had two objectives: first, to gather expert opinions on the qualities and limitations of current home-centred healthcare trends for aging patients; second, as a case study, to obtain feedback on a novel system, (TI-Health), integrating these trends.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is a leading global cause of death, with coronary artery disease often requiring coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Inadequate rehabilitation increases health risks and costs, and low adherence to center-based rehabilitation has prompted interest in telerehabilitation. Despite technological advances, the global implementation of telerehabilitation for CABG patients remains underexplored.
