PURPOSE
This research note describes a planned project to design, implement, and evaluate remote care for adults using cochlear implants and compare their outcomes with those of individuals following the standard care pathway.
METHOD
Sixty people with cochlear implants will be recruited and randomized to either the remote care group or a control group. The remote care group will use new tools for 6 months: remote and self-monitoring, self-adjustment of device, and a personalized online support tool. The main outcome measure is patient empowerment, with secondary outcomes of stability in hearing and quality of life, patient and clinician preference, and use of clinic resources.
CONCLUSION
The clinical trial ends in summer 2016. Remote care may offer a viable method of follow-up for some adults with cochlear implants.
目的
本研究报告描述了一个计划项目，旨在为使用人工耳蜗的成年人设计、实施和评估远程护理，并将其结果与遵循标准护理路径的个体的结果进行比较。
方法
将招募60名人工耳蜗使用者，并随机分为远程护理组或对照组。远程护理组将使用新工具6个月：远程和自我监测、设备自我调整以及个性化在线支持工具。主要结局指标是患者赋权，次要结局包括听力稳定性、生活质量、患者和临床医生偏好以及诊所资源使用情况。
结论
该临床试验于2016年夏季结束。远程护理可能为一些使用人工耳蜗的成年人提供一种可行的随访方法。
