Med Care
February 2025
RTI International, Research Triangle Park, NC.
Background: There is a lack of consensus on the effectiveness of audio-based care to manage chronic conditions. This knowledge gap has implications for health policy decisions and for health equity, as underserved populations are more likely to access care by telephone.
Objectives: We compared the effectiveness of audio-based care to usual care for managing chronic conditions (except diabetes).
Med Care

RTI International, Research Triangle Park, NC.
Background: Telehealth services can increase access to care by reducing barriers. Telephone-administered care, in particular, requires few resources and may be preferred by communities in areas that are systemically underserved. Understanding the effectiveness of audio-based care is important to combat the current mental health crisis and inform discussions related to reimbursement privileges.

Aim: This integrative review aims to identify what nurses currently offer through digital technology and their success in managing chronic pain.
Design: An integrative review guided by Whittemore and Knafl was conducted.
Data Sources: Five databases-CINAHL, Medline, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Scopus-were utilised to gather relevant studies from January 2018 to November 2024.

Aim: This scoping review aimed to identify potential variables influencing healthcare provider's perceived workload or stress when performing resuscitation on patients in cardiac arrest.
Methods: We searched Medline, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Cochrane, and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) to identify studies published prior to February 1, 2024. We used a PECO format for this review: the population were healthcare providers performing resuscitation during simulated or real cardiac arrest; the exposure was the presence of any factor that could impact perceived workload or stress; and the comparator was the absence of any specific factor.

The global burden of uncorrected refractive error demands for adoption of different approaches inclined towards scaling effective refractive error coverage. While innovative approaches such as utilization of telemedicine is being adopted by social enterprises in different parts of the world to scale refractive error service delivery, commercial entrepreneurship still dominates the optical industry in Kenya with minimal focus on accessibility and affordability. However, to achieve effective refractive error coverage across the economic pyramid, integration of enterprises inclined towards fulfilling a social mission through innovative approaches such as telemedicine is desirable.
