Diabetes Prevention in Adolescents: Co-design Study Using Human-Centered Design Methodologies.

Background: The rise in pediatric obesity and its accompanying condition, type 2 diabetes (T2D), is a serious public health concern. T2D in adolescents is associated with poor health outcomes and decreased life expectancy. Effective diabetes prevention strategies for high-risk adolescents and their families are urgently needed.

User testing of a hypospadias decision aid prototype at a pediatric medical conference.

Introduction: Based on our previous qualitative work, we created a web-based decision aid (DA) prototype to facilitate shared decision-making regarding hypospadias.

Objective: The objective of this study was to obtain rapid feedback on the prototype as part of an iterative, human-centered design process.

Methods: We conducted this study at a statewide, pediatric educational conference in May 2019, recruiting attendees by verbal/written announcements.

Consulting "Dr. YouTube": an objective evaluation of hypospadias videos on a popular video-sharing website.

Introduction: Parents who make decisions about hypospadias repair for their child may seek information from online platforms such as YouTube.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the health literacy demand of hypospadias videos on YouTube using the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool for Audiovisual Materials (PEMAT-A/V).

Study Design: We performed a YouTube search using the term "hypospadias," limiting results to the first 100 videos.

Parental perspectives on decision-making about hypospadias surgery.

Introduction: Many parents who choose hypospadias repair for their son experience decisional conflict and regret. The utilization of a shared decision-making process may address the issue of decisional conflict and regret in hypospadias repair by engaging both parents and physicians in decision-making.

Objective: The objective of this study was to develop a theoretical framework of the parental decision-making process about hypospadias surgery to inform the development of a decision aid.

Community engagement of adolescents in the development of a patient-centered outcome tool for adolescents with a history of hypospadias repair.

Introduction: Hypospadias may lead to long-term issues with urination, sexual function and psychosocial well-being. Limited evidence exists regarding the healthcare communication preferences of male adolescents regarding sensitive topics.

Objective: The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the healthcare communication preferences of male adolescents regarding sensitive topics (e.

Codesigned Shared Decision-Making Diabetes Management Plan Tool for Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Their Parents: Prototype Development and Pilot Test.

Background: Adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus have difficulty achieving optimal glycemic control, partly due to competing priorities that interfere with diabetes self-care. Often, significant diabetes-related family conflict occurs, and adolescents' thoughts and feelings about diabetes management may be disregarded. Patient-centered diabetes outcomes may be better when adolescents feel engaged in the decision-making process.
