Engagement and Utilization of a Complete Remote Digital Care Program for Muscul...
Scheer, Justin; Areias, Anabela C.; Molinos, Maria; Janela, Dora; Moulder, Robert; Laíns, Jorge; Bento, Virgílio; Yanamadala, VijayBackground: Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are the number one cause of disability worldwide. Digital care programs (DCPs) for MSK pain management have arisen as alternative care delivery models to circumvent challenges in accessibility of conventional therapy. Despite the potential of DCPs to reduce inequities in accessing care, the outcomes of such interventions in rural and urban populations have yet to be ...
The potential of a multimodal digital care program in addressing healthcare ine...
Areias, Anabela C.; Molinos, Maria; Moulder, Robert G.; Janela, Dora; Scheer, Justin K.; Bento, Virgílio; Yanamadala, Vijay; Cohen, Steven P.Digital interventions have emerged as a solution for time and geographical barriers, however, their potential to target other social determinants of health is largely unexplored. In this post-hoc analysis, we report the impact of social deprivation on engagement and clinical outcomes after a completely remote multimodal musculoskeletal (MSK) digital care program managed by a culturally-sensitive clinical team. ...
Managing Musculoskeletal Pain in Older Adults Through a Digital Care Solution: ...
Areias, Anabela C; Janela, Dora; Molinos, Maria; Moulder, Robert G; Bento, Virgílio; Yanamadala, Vijay; Cohen, Steven P; Dias Correia, FernandoBackground: Aging is closely associated with an increased prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions. Digital musculoskeletal care interventions emerged to deliver timely and proper rehabilitation; however, older adults frequently face specific barriers and concerns with digital care programs (DCPs). Objective: This study aims to investigate whether known barriers and concerns of older adults impacted their parti...
Telerehabilitation of acute musculoskeletal multi-disorders: prospective, singl...
Costa, Fabíola; Janela, Dora; Molinos, Maria; Laíns, Jorge; Francisco, Gerard E; Bento, Virgílio; Dias Correia, FernandoBackground: Acute musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is very common and associated with impaired productivity and high economic burden. Access to timely and personalized, evidence-based care is key to improve outcomes while reducing healthcare expenditure. Digital interventions can facilitate access and ensure care scalability. Objective: Present the feasibility and results of a fully remote digital care program (DCP) ...
Digital Rehabilitation for Acute Ankle Sprains: Prospective Longitudinal Cohort...
Dias Correia, Fernando; Molinos, Maria; Neves, Carlos; Janela, Dora; Carvalho, Diana; Luis, Sara; Francisco, Gerard E; Lains, Jorge; Bento, VirgilioBackground: Ankle sprains are one of the most prevalent soft-tissue injuries worldwide. Physical therapy, especially progressive exercise, has proven effective in improving function, while preventing recurrence. Objective: We aim to present the results of a fully remote and digitally guided rehabilitation program for acute ankle sprains. Methods: We performed a prospective longitudinal cohort study of individua...
Digital Versus Conventional Rehabilitation After Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Sing...
Dias Correia, Fernando; Nogueira, André; Magalhães, Ivo; Guimarães, Joana; Moreira, Maria Excelsa; Barradas, Isabel; Molinos, Maria; Teixeira, LaetitiaBackground: The demand for total hip arthroplasty (THA) is rising. In the face of rapidly increasing health care costs, ensuring widespread, cost-effective rehabilitation is a priority. Technologies allowing independent home-based rehabilitation may be the key to facilitate access, improve effectiveness, and lower costs of care. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of a novel artificia...
Medium-Term Outcomes of Digital Versus Conventional Home-Based Rehabilitation A...
Dias Correia, Fernando; Nogueira, André; Magalhães, Ivo; Guimarães, Joana; Moreira, Maria Excelsa; Barradas, Isabel; Molinos, Maria; Teixeira, LaetitiaBackground: Physical rehabilitation is recommended after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). With the expected increase in TKA over the next few decades, it is important to find new ways of delivering cost-effective interventions. Technological interventions have been developed with this intent, but only preliminary evidence exists regarding their validity, with short follow-up times. Objective: This study aimed to ...
