Background: Shared medical decision making requires patients' understanding of their disease and its treatment options. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a condition for which preference-sensitive treatments are available, but for which little is known about patients' knowledge and treatment preferences as it relates to specific treatment goals.
Methods: In a prospective, multicenter registry that involved patients with PAD experiencing claudication, the PORTRAIT Knowledge and Preferences Survey was administered at 1 year.
Article Synopsis
- Digital interventions are gaining traction as a cost-effective method to enhance physical activity (PA) among preschoolers (ages 3-5), leveraging improved access compared to traditional in-person strategies.
- The systematic review aimed to evaluate the quality, efficacy, and theoretical frameworks of studies on digital PA interventions for young children, leading to the identification of relevant research through a comprehensive search process.
- Out of 601 studies screened, only 8 met the criteria for inclusion, with most showing low study quality; however, 2 studies indicated positive outcomes related to child PA, particularly those employing child-centered approaches.
