Adapting Cognitive Remediation Group Therapy Online: Focus Groups with People Aging with HIV
J Int Assoc Provid AIDS Care. 2024 Jan-Dec;23:23259582241242703. doi: 10.1177/23259582241242703.ABSTRACTCognitive health is a significant concern for people aging with HIV/AIDS. Psychosocial group therapies may help people aging with HIV who experience cognitive challenges cope with their symptoms. The COVID-19 pandemic revealed in-person group therapies need adaptation for technology-mediated delivery. Peer-led focus groups discussed adapting cognitive remediation group therapy (CRGT) as an online intervention. CRGT combines mindfulness-based stress reduction and brain training activities. Purposive sampling recruited peo...

Evaluation of Telehealth Services that are Clinically Appropriate for Reimbursement in the US Medicaid Population: Mixed Methods Study
CONCLUSIONS: There is a strong clinical endorsement to continue the telehealth flexibility enabled by the PHE, primarily for video combined with audio telehealth, with caution against audio-only telehealth in situations where hands-on intervention is necessary for diagnosis or treatment. There is also support for reimbursing remote monitoring services and telehealth interprofessional services, albeit with guardrails. These results are primarily from a perspective of improving access, outcomes, and equity; other state-specific factors such as fiscal impact and technical implementation may need to be taken into account when ...

Exploring healthcare provider retention in a rural and frontier community in Northern Idaho
CONCLUSION: Our study identified multiple factors that healthcare providers deemed as important advantages or disadvantages to retaining healthcare providers in rural areas. Overall, facility and community support factors were found to have the highest advantage in the retention of rural providers. Rural healthcare organizations looking to increase healthcare provider retention should target retention efforts towards these factors. Additional research should also be conducted on other rural samples across the U.S. to make comparisons of findings.PMID:38539177 | DOI:10.1186/s12913-024-10807-5 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Impact of COVID-19 on the Pediatric Primary Care Model in Catalonia: Analysis of Changes in the Number and Type of Face-to-Face and Remote Visits
CONCLUSIONS: COVID-19 has been the trigger for a transition in the types of visits to primary care pediatric services. The COVID-19 pandemic was a clear catalyst for the integration of telemedicine in Catalan pediatric health care. In this context, although face-to-face consultations have recovered in absolute numbers, after the pandemic period, the weight of telemedicine has increased.PMID:38532544 | DOI:10.2196/49943 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Promoting community health and climate justice co-benefits: insights from a rural and remote island climate planning process
Front Public Health. 2024 Mar 12;12:1309186. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1309186. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTClimate change is an environmental crisis, a health crisis, a socio-political and an economic crisis that illuminates the ways in which our human-environment relationships are arriving at crucial tipping points. Through these relational axes, social structures, and institutional practices, patterns of inequity are produced, wherein climate change disproportionately impacts several priority populations, including rural and remote communities. To make evidence-based change, it is important that engagements with climate chan...

Island medicine longitudinal cohort study: Rapid rise in chronic kidney disease in rural and remote communities
CONCLUSION: The age-standardized prevalence of CKD in rural and remote regions has increased considerably over the past decade, likely compounded by limited access to primary and secondary healthcare. These findings highlight the need to ensure healthcare resources are directed to areas of greatest need.PMID:38533938 | DOI:10.1111/nep.14296 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Patient-Centered Research and Outcomes in Cancer and Kidney Transplantation
Semin Nephrol. 2024 Mar 26:151499. doi: 10.1016/j.semnephrol.2024.151499. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCancer has been identified by kidney transplant recipients as a critically important outcome. The co-occurrence of cancer and kidney transplantation represents a complex intersection of diseases, symptoms, and competing priorities for treatments. Research that focuses on biochemical parameters and clinical events may not capture the priorities of patients. Patient-centered research can improve the relevance and efficiency of research and is particularly pertinent in the setting of cancer and kidney transplantation to fac...

Advantages and limits of remote consultations for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis health pathway: ePrEP qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: The initiation and uptake of PrEP among MSM are more effectively influenced by initiatives that provide information, reassurance, and facilitate initial procedures, rather than solely through RC.
