A Reliable and Accessible Caregiving Language Model (CaLM) to Support Tools for Caregivers: Development and Evaluation Study.

Background: In the United States, 1 in 5 adults currently serves as a family caregiver for an individual with a serious illness or disability. Unlike professional caregivers, family caregivers often assume this role without formal preparation or training. Thus, there is an urgent need to enhance the capacity of family caregivers to provide quality care.

The iMHere 2.0 System for Family Caregivers of Older Adults: A Focus Group.

Background: Family caregivers with continuous caregiving responsibilities are at increased risk for adverse physical and mental health outcomes. In response to the challenges of caregiving, a mobile health system (iMHere 2.0) was developed to support caregivers.

Pilot RCT examining feasibility and disability outcomes of a mobile health platform for strategy training in inpatient stroke rehabilitation (iADAPT).

Background: Strategy training is an intervention that may reduce disability when delivered in inpatient rehabilitation following stroke. However, shorter lengths of stay and challenges with continuity of care following discharge results in difficulties in achieving adequate intervention dosage and carryover of training.

Objective: We examined whether strategy training using a mobile health platform (iADAPT) is feasible during inpatient stroke rehabilitation and following discharge.

Mobile Health to Support Community-Integration of Individuals With Disabilities Using iMHere 2.0: Focus Group Study.

Background: Mobile health (mHealth) systems that support self-management can improve medical, functional, and psychosocial outcomes for individuals with disabilities and chronic conditions. The mHealth systems can potentially be expanded to support community integration.

Objective: The purposes of this study were to (1) partner with a community-based organization that supports community integration of individuals with disabilities; (2) identify software requirements needed to support community participation; and (3) iteratively refine an existing mHealth application to include new requirements.

Making Self-Management Mobile Health Apps Accessible to People With Disabilities: Qualitative Single-Subject Study.

Background: Over the past decade, a large number of mobile health (mHealth) apps have been created to help individuals to better manage their own health. However, very few of these mHealth apps were specifically designed for people with disabilities, and only a few of them have been assessed for accessibility for people with disabilities. As a result, people with disabilities have difficulties using many of these mHealth apps.

The Effect of the Interactive Mobile Health and Rehabilitation System on Health and Psychosocial Outcomes in Spinal Cord Injury: Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) are at risk for secondary medical complications, such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) and pressure injuries, that could potentially be mitigated through improved self-management techniques. The Interactive Mobile Health and Rehabilitation (iMHere) mobile health (mHealth) system was developed to support self-management for individuals with disabilities.

Objective: The main objective of this study was to determine if the use of iMHere would be associated with improved health outcomes over a 9-month period.

Feasibility of an iterative rehabilitation intervention for stroke delivered remotely using mobile health technology.

Telehealth affords rehabilitation professionals opportunities to expand access to intervention for people in rural areas. Complex interventions have not been adapted for remote delivery using mobile health technologies. Strategy training is a complex intervention that teaches clients skills for identifying barriers and solutions to engagement in meaningful activities.

An Adaptive Mobile Health System to Support Self-Management for Persons With Chronic Conditions and Disabilities: Usability and Feasibility Studies.

Background: Persons with chronic conditions and disabilities (PwCCDs) are vulnerable to secondary complications. Many of these secondary complications are preventable with proactive self-management and proper support. To enhance PwCCDs' self-management skills and conveniently receive desired support, we have developed a mobile health (mHealth) system called iMHere.

The mHealth App Usability Questionnaire (MAUQ): Development and Validation Study.

Background: After a mobile health (mHealth) app is created, an important step is to evaluate the usability of the app before it is released to the public. There are multiple ways of conducting a usability study, one of which is collecting target users' feedback with a usability questionnaire. Different groups have used different questionnaires for mHealth app usability evaluation: The commonly used questionnaires are the System Usability Scale (SUS) and Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ).

Development of "My Wheelchair Guide" app: a qualitative study.

The smartphone app "My Wheelchair Guide" is designed to provide essential information about wheelchair use and service delivery for new wheelchair users. It aims to empower wheelchair users in taking ownership in acquiring appropriate wheelchairs, and guiding them to use their wheelchairs in a safe and effective manner. This paper describes the development of the "My Wheelchair Guide" app and the usability evaluation of one of the app sections "Use a Wheelchair".

Factors Associated with Symptoms of Depression among Injection Drug Users Receiving Antiretroviral Treatment in Indonesia.

Objective: Few studies have examined psychiatric comorbidity among HIV positive injection drug users (IDUs) in resource-limiting settings. We sought to identify key factors associated with symptoms of depression among IDUs receiving antiretroviral (ARV) treatment in Jakarta and Denpasar, Indonesia.

Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted at five ARV delivery sites in Indonesia.

The organization of STI/HIV risk-taking among long-line fishermen in Bali, Indonesia.

We report on selected findings of a qualitative social network study investigating STI/HIV-related risk among migrant fishermen based at one of Indonesia's major fishing ports in Bali. Their activities between fishing trips include drinking parties, watching pornographic videos, and visiting brothels, while condom use is rare. While on board, they plan and anticipate these activities and many insert penile implants.
