Full project name is: “The need for new evaluation methods for eHealth and mHealth services – study of a dynamic concept for efficient trials”, funded by Northern Norway Regional Health Authority, in the period: 2019-2021.
Description:
RCT is still the traditional study-approach that medical professionals rely upon to shape and update their clinical practice. Given that patients do much more iterative and real-time self-management and self-treatment with electronic health (eHealth) and mobile health (mHealth) technology systems, clinical trials should be performed more efficiently and include new methods in order to provide clinicians with ways of relating to the new functionalities and purpose that these systems provide. There is now the potential to identify which intervention functionalities and characteristics impact the patients’ engagement and health-related actions, and when. Therefore, clinical trials need a new approach to be able to successfully sort-through, structure and evaluate the more continuous and detailed data from such systems and services in interventions
