Article Synopsis
- Current heart failure (HF) guidelines recommend a comprehensive approach for management, including patient education and self-care, but implementing these recommendations is difficult in practice.
- A study was conducted to test a mobile health (mHealth) platform that pairs a smartphone app with Bluetooth monitoring devices to improve self-management and symptoms of heart failure.
- Results showed that the intervention group reported significantly better symptom improvement and adherence to the app compared to the control group, demonstrating the potential benefits of technology in managing HF.
We investigated the accuracy of pressure injury evaluation using tele-devices and examined the concordance between automatically generated recommendations and primary manual recommendations. Caregivers took photos and videos of pressure injuries using smartphones with built-in cameras and uploaded the media to the application. The wound team evaluated the wound using a specially modified version of the Pressure Sore Status Tool.

However, most patients with stroke are unable to undergo aphasia evaluation and detection and therefore remain undiagnosed. The purpose of this study is to develop a valid, reliable mobile aphasia screening test (MAST) for patients in remote locations.

Methods: Feasibility was evaluated by checking the satisfaction of the participants with a 5-point Likert scale.
