Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Non-specific low back pain (NLBP) exerts a profound impact on global health and economics. In the era of Web 3.0, digital therapeutics offer the potential to improve NLBP management. The Rise-uP trial introduces a digitally anchored, general practitioner (GP)-focused back pain management approach with the Kaia back pain app as the key intervention. Here, we present the 12-months evaluation of the Rise-uP trial including clinical and economic outcomes, patient satisfaction and behavioral tracking analysis.
UNASSIGNED: The cluster-randomized controlled study (registration number: DRKS00015048) enrolled 1237 patients, with 930 receiving treatment according to the Rise-uP approach and 307 subjected to standard of care treatment. Assessments of pain, psychological state, functional capacity, and well-being (patient-reported outcome measures; PROMs) were collected at baseline, and at 3-, 6-, and 12-months follow-up intervals. Health insurance partners AOK, DAK, and BARMER provided individual healthcare cost data. An artificial intelligence (AI)-driven behavioral tracking analysis identified distinct app usage clusters that presented all with about the same clinical outcome. Patient satisfaction (patient-reported experience measures; PREMs) was captured at the end of the trial.
UNASSIGNED: Intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis demonstrated that the Rise-uP group experienced significantly greater pain reduction at 12 months compared to the control group (IG: -46% vs CG: -24%; p < 0.001) with only the Rise-uP group achieving a pain reduction that was clinically meaningful. Improvements in all other PROMs were notably superior in patients of the Rise-uP group. The AI analysis of app usage discerned four usage clusters. Short- to long-term usage, all produced about the same level of pain reduction. Cost-effectiveness analysis indicated a substantial economic benefit for Rise-uP.
UNASSIGNED: The Rise-uP approach with a medical multimodal back pain app as the central element of digital treatment demonstrates both, clinical and economic superiority compared to standard of care in the management of NLBP.
摘要:
非特异性下腰痛(NLBP)对全球卫生和经济产生了深远的影响。在Web3.0时代,数字疗法提供了改善NLBP管理的潜力。Rise-uP试验引入了数字锚定,以全科医生(GP)为重点的背痛管理方法,以Kaia背痛应用程序为关键干预措施。这里,我们介绍了Rise-uP试验的12个月评估,包括临床和经济结果,患者满意度和行为跟踪分析。
集群随机对照研究(注册号:DRKS00015048)纳入了1237名患者,其中930人根据Rise-uP方法接受治疗,307人接受标准护理治疗。疼痛的评估,心理状态,功能能力,和健康(患者报告的结果测量;PROM)在基线时收集,在3-,6-,和12个月的随访间隔。健康保险合作伙伴AOK,DAK,BARMER提供了个人医疗保健成本数据。人工智能(AI)驱动的行为跟踪分析确定了不同的应用程序使用集群,这些集群呈现的临床结果大致相同。在试验结束时捕获患者满意度(患者报告的经验测量;PREM)。
意向治疗(ITT)分析表明,与对照组相比,Rise-uP组在12个月时的疼痛减轻幅度显着较大(IG:-46%vsCG:-24%;p<0.001),只有Rise-uP组的疼痛减轻才具有临床意义。在Rise-uP组患者中,所有其他PROM的改善均显着优于此。对应用程序使用情况的AI分析区分了四个使用集群。短期到长期使用,都产生了相同程度的疼痛减轻。成本效益分析表明,Rise-uP具有巨大的经济效益。
以医疗多模式背痛应用程序作为数字治疗的核心要素的Rise-uP方法证明了这两者,在NLBP的管理中,与标准护理相比具有临床和经济优势。
