Abstract:
Introduction: Post-COVID-19 is an increasing chronic disease for which potential treatment options require further development and examination. A well-established approach to symptom management in post-COVID-19 patients could be e-Health interventions. To enhance the implementation and utilization of e-Health interventions, the needs and demands of patients should be taken into consideration. The aim of this study was to investigate needs and demands of post-COVID-19 patients concerning e-Health symptom management interventions. Methods: A total of 556 patients participated in this cross-sectional online survey study. Recruitment was performed from January 19 to May 24, 2022. Data related to the needs and demands for e-Health interventions were analyzed, along with medical and sociodemographic information. Results: The majority of the patients preferred interventions accessible on smartphones (95.3%). The favored content formats were applications (82.7%), interactive training (69.3%), or audio and video materials (61.1%). Furthermore, the preferred session length was about 10-20 min. The most desired topics included \"quality of life,\" \"information about how intensively I may exert myself or do sports,\" \"adjustment to new life situation,\" and \"handling physical changes.\" Conclusions: This study provides a detailed framework for the content and design of e-Health interventions to support patients managing their post-COVID-19 symptoms. The findings could significantly influence the further development of tailored e-Health interventions to address this pressing global health concern.
摘要:
简介:后COVID-19是一种日益严重的慢性疾病,潜在的治疗方案需要进一步开发和检查。在COVID-19后患者中,一种行之有效的症状管理方法可能是电子健康干预措施。加强电子健康干预措施的实施和利用,应考虑患者的需求和要求。这项研究的目的是调查COVID-19后患者对电子健康症状管理干预的需求和需求。方法:共有556名患者参加了这项横断面在线调查研究。招募于2022年1月19日至5月24日进行。分析了与电子健康干预措施的需求和需求相关的数据,以及医学和社会人口统计信息。结果:大多数患者更喜欢通过智能手机访问的干预措施(95.3%)。受青睐的内容格式是应用程序(82.7%),互动培训(69.3%),或音像资料(61.1%)。此外,首选会话长度约为10-20分钟。最想要的主题包括“生活质量,“\”关于我可能会有多努力地发挥自己或做运动的信息,适应新的生活环境,\"和\"处理物理变化。“结论:这项研究为电子健康干预措施的内容和设计提供了一个详细的框架,以支持患者管理其COVID-19后症状。这些发现可能会极大地影响量身定制的电子健康干预措施的进一步发展,以解决这一紧迫的全球健康问题。
