ALS Motor Observational Telemedicine Objective Rasch-Built Assessment: A Quantitative Scale for the Era of Teleneurology.
Neurol Clin Pract
April 2025
Department of Neurology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA.
Background And Objectives: Telemedicine has become a mainstay of ALS clinical care, but there is currently no standardized approach for assessing and tracking changes to the neurologic examination in this format. The goal of this study was to create a standardized telemedicine-based motor examination scale to objectively and reliably track ALS progression and use Rasch methodology to validate the scale and improve its psychometric properties.
Methods: A draft telemedicine examination scale with 25 items assessing movement in the bulbar muscles, neck, trunk, and extremities was created by an ALS expert panel, incorporating input from patient advisors.
Novel digital leakage notification system can promote better stoma management routines: a multicentre clinical trial.

Principal Clinical Strategy Project Manager, Coloplast A/S, Holtedam 1, Humlebæk, Denmark.
Background: Most people with a stoma are anxious about stoma-related leakage.
Aims: To investigate the impact of a novel digital leakage notification system on worry related to stoma leakage, and to evaluate the effect on overall stoma care management.
Method: A 12-week interventional, single-arm, multicentre study was conducted in the UK to evaluate the novel digital leakage notification system, including a telemedicine-based support service (=test product), as part of routine stoma care in patients with a recent stoma formation (ClinicalTrials.
Implementation and User Satisfaction of a Comprehensive Telemedicine Approach for SARS-CoV-2 Self-Sampling: Monocentric, Prospective, Interventional, Open-Label, Controlled, Two-Arm Feasibility Study.
JMIR Form Res
December 2024
Clinical Department for Internal Medicine II - Department of Clinical Medicine, TUM School of Medicine and Health, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- The widespread use of smartphones has led to the development of innovative telemedicine solutions, especially for SARS-CoV-2 PCR testing during the COVID-19 pandemic, which requires contactless healthcare.
- This feasibility study compared traditional healthcare professional-performed testing with a telemedicine-guided self-sampling approach, focusing on practicality, user satisfaction, and economic implications.
- Results showed high user satisfaction in the telemedicine group, with 76% returning samples, higher test completion rates than the conventional group, but at a slightly increased cost; the study indicates the potential for effective data sharing through a mobile app.
A Novel Model of Integrated Care of Older Patients With Atrial Fibrillation in Rural China.
JACC Asia
October 2024
Division of Cardiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.
Article Synopsis
- An integrated management approach is crucial for improving care for atrial fibrillation (AF) patients in rural China, where the healthcare system struggles with resource limitations and access.
- The MIRACLE-AF trial assesses a new telemedicine model that empowers village doctors to deliver multifaceted care to older patients (aged ≥65) with AF.
- With 1,039 participants enrolled, the trial aims to measure the effectiveness of this model against usual care over time, focusing on key health outcomes related to AF management.
