A Prospective Randomized Controlled Pilot Simulation Study to Investigate the Effect of Audiovisual Decision Support on Diagnosis and Therapeutic Interventions.

Introduction: Combining audiovisual decision support during perioperative critical events might enhance provider diagnostic and therapeutic accuracy and efficiency.

Methods: This study is a prospective, randomized controlled pilot trial studying the impact of audiovisual decision support on anesthesia professional performance at NorthShore University HealthSystem's high fidelity simulation center. Twenty anesthesia professionals (>2 years of clinical experience in the current role) were randomized to 2 groups (current care model vs.

Electronic medication monitoring versus self-reported use of inhaled corticosteroids and short-acting beta-agonists in uncontrolled asthma.

Objective: Current standard of care, patient self-report and clinician estimation, overestimates true inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) adherence. We compare self-reported inhaled ICS and short-acting beta 2-agonists (SABA) use with objective data from electronic medication monitors (EMMs).

Methods: Adults with uncontrolled asthma and prescribed ICS and SABA were enrolled.

The Impact of Patient Self-Monitoring Via Electronic Medication Monitor and Mobile App Plus Remote Clinician Feedback on Adherence to Inhaled Corticosteroids: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Poor adherence to inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) and overuse of short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs) are associated with increased asthma morbidity.

Objective: To assess whether patient self-monitoring via electronic medication monitoring and smartphone application plus remote clinician feedback influences ICS and SABA use.

Methods: Adults with uncontrolled asthma and prescribed ICS and SABA were enrolled in this 14-week study.
