Really proud to launch this survey. @clinicaltrialON's College of #LivedExperience was critical to developing this survey where we hope to learn Canadians' preferences about 'decentralized' #ClinicalTrials. It's open to anyone in Canada over 18 years (Alt text in next tweets)
On now and just in time for #SickleCellAwarenessMonth ! Pop by poster 215 @IASPpain to meet the fabulous @VinaMohabir and learn about our study of engagement with digital pain self-mgt among youth and caregivers with sickle cell disease.
📲🏥What’s next? Our team is refining the program based on participant feedback. We will then be studying the implementation of iCanCope in partnership with sickle cell clinics and community organizations.(6/6)
https://t.co/EIfS0LhQEX Our new paper, featured at @IASPpain (poster 215 on Friday), describes one of the first studies to apply digital health analytics to characterize patterns of engagement with pain self-management among youth and caregivers with sickle cell disease. (1/6)
🔍What did we find?🔎 Interviews revealed that most dyads would continue to use the program (92%) and recommend it to others (83%). Caregivers would recommend the program to others living with SCD who were newly diagnosed or who frequently experienced pain crises. (5/6)
Are you a MD or NP with expertise in pediatric pain? 👀
