Article Abstract

This commentary elaborates on the model proposed by Miranda et al for implementing remote patient monitoring (RPM) from an integrated care perspective. It stresses the complexity of RPM deployment as a digital health technology (DHT) and discusses essential features that developers and procurement managers should take into consideration in RPM systems to facilitate the implementation of integrated care practices. Furthermore, three major challenges for DHT implementation that align with the proposed RPM-based integrated care model are discussed: (1) the success of DHT in implementing a healthcare strategy requires elements of service innovation that align to the context of care delivery; (2) evidence generation methods influence the adoption of DHT and need an evolutive and multi-stakeholder perspective; (3) governance and policy strategies are crucial since they profoundly influence digital health priorities, investments, and resource allocation within organizations and healthcare systems.

Existing evaluations of the National Health Service Diabetes Prevention Programme (NHS DPP) in England have demonstrated associated reductions in body weight, hemoglobin A1c and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D). In this study, we examined associations between completion of the NHS DPP and incidence of T2D and 30 other long-term conditions (LTCs), including LTCs considered linked to the program's interventional goals of body weight reduction, increased physical activity and improved diet quality (LTC-L) and LTCs considered to be possibly linked to those goals (LTC-PL). We found that completers of the NHS DPP had lower incidences of T2D, LTC-L and LTC-PL compared to non-attenders.

Introduction: Breathlessness is a common cause of hospital admission globally and is associated with high mortality, particularly in low-income countries. In sub-Saharan Africa, there is a paucity of data on breathlessness, with existing data focused on individual diseases. There is a need for patient-centred approaches to understand interactions between multiple conditions to address population needs and inform health system responses.

Background: The relationship between intraoperative end-tidal CO (etCO) levels and postoperative outcomes remains unclear. We conducted a post hoc analysis of two randomised trials in adults undergoing major surgery under general anaesthesia.

Methods: We re-analysed individual participant data comparing high or low positive end-expiratory pressure with low tidal volume intraoperative ventilation using a merged database derived from two randomised trials in non-obese (PROVHILO: ISRCTN70332574) and obese (PROBESE: NCT02148692) patients.

Rationale: Radial artery spasm (RAS) is a common complication during transradial cerebral angiography (TRA), but currently, the optimal prevention strategy is not well established. Papaverine has anti-vasospasm, sedative and analgesic effects. However, the efficacy of papaverine in preventing RAS during TRA remains unknown.
