Involving Health Care Professionals in the Development of Electronic Health Records: Scoping Review
(2023)
Electronic health records (EHRs) are a promising approach to document and map (complex) health information gathered in health care worldwide. However, possible unintended consequences during use, which can occur owing to low usability or the lack of adaption to existing workflows (eg, high cognitive load), may pose a challenge. To prevent this, the involvement of users in the development of EHRs is crucial and growing. Overall, involvement is designed to be very multifaceted, for example, in terms of the timing, frequency, or even methods used to capture user preferences. Setting, users and their needs, and the context and practice of health care must be considered in the design and subsequent implementation of EHRs. Many different approaches to user involvement exist, each requiring a variety of methodological choices. The aim of the study was to provide an overview of the existing forms of user involvement and the circumstances they need and to provide support for the planning of new involvement processes. We conducted a scoping review to provide a database for future projects on which design of inclusion is worthwhile and to show the diversity of reporting. Using a very broad search string, we searched the PubMed, CINAHL, and Scopus databases. In addition, we searched Google Scholar. Hits were screened according to scoping review methodology and then examined, focusing on methods and materials, participants, frequency and design of the development, and competencies of the researchers involved. In total, 70 articles were included in the final analysis. There was a wide range of methods of involvement. Physicians and nurses were the most frequently included groups and, in most cases, were involved only once in the process. The approach of involvement (eg, co-design) was not specified in most of the studies (44/70, 63%). Further qualitative deficiencies in the reporting were evident in the presentation of the competences of members of the research and development teams. Think-aloud sessions, interviews, and prototypes were frequently used. This review provides insights into the diversity of health care professionals’ involvement in the development of EHRs. It provides an overview of the different approaches in various fields of health care. However, it also shows the necessity of considering quality standards in the development of EHRs together with future users and the need for reporting this in future studies.
This survey study investigates surgical patients’ use and perception of digital health technologies in Germany in the pre–COVID-19 era. The objective of this study was to relate surgical patients’ characteristics to the use and perception of several digital health technologies. In this single-center, cross-sectional survey study in the outpatient department of a university hospital in Germany, 406 patients completed a questionnaire with the following three domains: general information and use of the internet, smartphones, and general digital health aspects. Analyses were stratified by age group and highest education level achieved. We found significant age-based differences in most of the evaluated aspects. Younger patients were more open to using new technologies in private and medical settings but had more security concerns. Although searching for information on illnesses on the web was common, the overall acceptance of and trust in web-based consultations were rather low, with <50% of patients in each age group reporting acceptance and trust. More people with academic qualifications than without academic qualifications searched for information on the web before visiting physicians (73/121, 60.3% and 100/240, 41.7%, respectively). Patients with academic degrees were also more engaged in health-related information and communication technology use. These results support the need for eHealth literacy, health literacy, and available digital devices and internet access to support the active, meaningful use of information and communication technologies in health care. Uncertainties and a lack of knowledge exist, especially regarding telemedicine and the use of medical and health apps. This is especially pronounced among older patients and patients with a low education status.
Steigerung der Versorgungsqualität in der Palliativversorgung durch elektronische Gesundheitsakten

Purpose: This study investigated the effectiveness of the stuttering modification intervention Kinder Dürfen Stottern (KIDS) in school-age children who stutter.
Method: Seventy-three children who stutter were included in this multicenter, two-group parallel, randomized, wait-list controlled trial with a follow-up of 12 months. Children aged 7–11 years were recruited from 34 centers for speech therapy and randomized to either the immediate-treatment group or the 3 months delayed-treatment group. KIDS was provided by 26 clinicians who followed a treatment manual. Although the primary outcome measure was the impact of stuttering (Overall Assessment of the Speaker’s Experience of Stuttering–School-Age [OASES-S]), the secondary outcomes included objective and subjective data on stuttering severity.
Results: At 3 months postrandomization, the mean score changes of the OASESS differed significantly between the experimental (n = 33) and control group (n = 29; p = .026). Furthermore, treatment outcomes up to 12 months were analyzed (n = 59), indicating large effects of time on the OASES-S score (p < .001, partial η2 = .324). This was paralleled by significant improvements in parental ratings and objective ratings (stuttering severity, frequency, and physical concomitants).
Conclusions: The significant short-term treatment effects in the OASES-S are in line with the (initial) focus of KIDS on cognitive and affective aspects of stuttering.
Over 12 months, these changes were maintained and accompanied by
behavioral improvements. The results suggest that individual treatment with KIDS is an adequate treatment option for this age group.
Fürther Gespräche: Expertenforum für den Rettungsdienst mit Forderungen an Politik und Gesellschaft
(2023)
Die rettungsdienstliche Versorgung, die Rettungsfachkräfteausbildung und die rechtlichen Vorraussetzungen in Deutschland bieten aktuell keine guten Rahmenbedingungen für die Zukunft. Ein Expertenforum mit deutschlandweiten Akteuren aus Wissenschaft, Bildung und Rettungsdienst diskutierten im Rahmen der Fürther Gespräche die Herausforderungen der Professionalisierung und der Kompetenzentwicklung des Rettungsdienstes und der präklinischen Versorgung in Deutschland. Die zentralen Ergebnisse und Schwerpunktthemen wurden in 7 Thesen zusammengefasst und konkrete Lösungsansätze entwickelt. Das Spannungsfeld umfasst hierbei die Anforderungen und Versorgungsbedarfe, die Prävention und erweiterte Versorgungskomponenten, die Digitalisierungsstrategie, integrierte Leitstellen und vernetzte Gesundheitsdienstleistungen, Personalentwicklung und -bindung sowie Qualifikationsniveaus und Notarztqualifikation.
Neben der bereits bekannten Relevanz der sozialen Medien für junge Erwachsene belegen aktuelle Studien, dass sie das Potenzial haben, das Gesundheitsverhalten ihrer Konsumenten positiv zu beeinflussen. Jedoch gibt es bis dato keine wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse darüber, wovon solch ein positiver Einfluss abhängt. Daher wurde in dieser ersten Studie empirisch untersucht, ob möglicherweise die spezifische Selbstwirksamkeit für ein bestimmtes Gesundheitsverhalten (hier: gewohnheitsmäßige Meditation und Achtsamkeit zur Stressreduktion) einen Moderator-Effekt auf den Einfluss von sozialen Medien hat und, ob dieser Effekt abhängig von der Qualität der Selbstwirksamkeit ist. Dazu wurden von 121 Probanden im Alter von 18 bis 29 Jahren die Nutzungsweise von sozialen Medien, die individuelle generelle und spezifische Selbstwirksamkeit für das ausgewählte Gesundheitsverhalten und dessen Gewohnheitsmäßigkeit erfasst. Entgegen den Erwartungen konnte kein Moderator-Effekt und keine Korrelation nachgewiesen werden. Die Ergebnisse deuten jedoch darauf hin, dass zusätzlich (oder eher) die spezifische Selbstwirksamkeit für die Nutzung von sozialen Medien von großer Relevanz für die Bestätigung der hier aufgestellten Hypothesen sein könnte. Deshalb sollten zukünftige Studien auf diesem Gebiet diese zwingend erfassen. Sollten sich die Hypothesen in der weiterführenden Forschung bestätigen, würde dies die Gesundheitsförderung des Einzelnen und der Gesellschaft positiv beeinflussen.
