Understanding gaps between daily living and clinical settings in chronic disease management: qualitative study.
This study’s objective was to characterize gaps from the patient’s perspective between health-related activities across home-based and clinical settings in the management of chronic conditions. Patients were recruited from an anticoagulation clinic of an urban, western mountain system and primary interviews were conducted with 39 patients and 4 providers. The causes of gaps included clinician recommendations not fitting into patients’ daily routines; recommendations not fitting into a patients’ living contexts; and no information transfer across settings. Consequences of these gaps included increased cognitive and physical workload on the patient, poor patient satisfaction, and compromised adherence to the therapy plan.

An implementation model for managing cloud-based longitudinal care plans for children with medical complexity.
In this study, the investigators aimed to iteratively refine an implementation model for managing cloud-based longitudinal care plans (LCPs) for children with medical complexity (CMC). They conducted iterative 1-on-1 design sessions with CMC caregivers (ie, parents/legal guardians) and providers between August 2017 and March 2019. The investigators concluded that utilizing the management strategies, described in the article, when implementing cloud-based LCPs had the potential to improve team-based care across settings.
