Official title
Effectiveness of Telehome Monitoring on Quality of Life and Health Resources Utilization Among People With Chronic Disease Residing in Rural Maryland
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
People living in rural areas are at increased risk for poor health outcomes due to: long distance to health care facilities, less available health care resources such as primary care and specialty services, transportation problems, higher elderly population, poverty, high uninsured rates and the lack of timely access to new technologies. Called Telehome Care (THC), in the form of equipment in the home, may provide an innovative and potentially cost-effective solution to enhancing chronic disease management services using technology and may influence the reduction in emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations in rural areas. However, telehealth research is still in its infancy, it is not well understood, and is often done without an overarching scientific framework. The provision of in home health monitoring and health education also may be a potential population based health research tool for chronically ill patients. Demonstration of the possible benefits, patient acceptance and satisfaction with THC requires a scientific approach as is used in this study.
