简要总结
A large proportion of the Danish population leads an unhealthy lifestyle. The associated surge in lifestyle-related disease (LRD) represents a significant health and economic burden for the individual as well as society. However, the reactive nature of the Danish national health-care system, complicates a comprehensive and concerted preventive response to this issue. The TOF project aims to remedy this situation by 1) Using digital support systems to systematically identify citizens at risk of LRD and 2) Target the preventive services at citizens with the highest need. Specifically, the ultimate goal of TOF is to integrate the clinical and municipal preventive primary health-care system into a targeted preventive service that facilitates lifestyle change in the at-risk population, and thus reduces LRD at a population level. To this end, we have developed a complex intervention in close collaboration with central stakeholders (health professionals, citizens). The initial feasibility of the intervention has been tested in a pilot study comprising two municipalities, 47 GPs, and 8814 citizens. The intervention has subsequently been adjusted in collaboration with the end users, focusing both on recruitment activities and implementation activities in general practice. The upcoming step involves testing of the adjusted intervention (Pilot2), before large-scale implementation and efficacy evaluation.
The feasibility, acceptability, and short-term effect of the adjusted intervention will be tested in two municipalities using quantitative as well as qualitative research methods. The evaluation will focus on the reach of the intervention, the implementation and acceptability of the intervention in general practice and municipality, the use and assessment of the digital support system and the possible short-term effects on patient lifestyle and risk of disease. We expect 15 general practitioners and 4800 patients to participate.
The intervention comprises four main components:
- Participants will be screened for LRD-risk factors by survey
- Survey information is linked with participants' medical history in order to stratify participants into designated risk groups
- Depending on risk level, participants will be offered targeted interventions at the GP or municipality.
- Throughout the intervention, a digital support system providing personalized feedback and advice (health profile) to participants will be accessible to both participants and health professionals.
详细描述
Two (Haderslev and Middelfart) of the seven municipalities participating in the large-scale TOF study volunteered to participate in Pilot2. In February-March 2018, GPs from these two municipalities will receive an invitation to participate. The target group of Pilot2 comprises 4.800 adults born between 1959 and 1988 and who are registered with a participating GP.
Prior to study commencement, all enrolled GPs, practice nurses (PN), and health professionals from the municipalities are invited to a joint kick-off meeting. The meeting will focus on the intervention activities and tasks assigned to the GP clinics and the municipality. In addition, all GP practices will be offered an introductory visit from the project secretariat to help organize and plan project activities.
In October 2018 half of the target population will receive a mailed pre-notification (postcard), and 2 weeks later the full target population will receive an invitation, sent on behalf of the GP and the municipality to the individual's e-Boks. Two different invitations are tested; a) A broad invitation and b) an invitation targeting citizens with low educational attainment. Random selection is used to allocate citizens to the four invitation groups: (+/- postcard x Invitation a/b). To enroll in the study, citizens are asked to sign a consent form via a link to a secure, digital support system, accessible only with a two-phased NemID password. The consent form will outline study participation and disclosure of data from the GPs electronic patient record (EPR). Short videos on the digital support system will also be made available to participants. These videos come in different versions, designed for male and female participants, specifically. The main purpose of including the videos is to describe the purpose of the study and the intervention. To adjust for social inequality in health, proactive recruitment activities will be conducted by the participating municipalities in socially deprived areas.
Upon consent, information on relevant diagnoses (International Classification of Primary Care (ICPC-2) codes) and prescribed medicine (Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification (ATC) codes incl. text fields with indication for treatment) are collected from the GPs' EPR systems.
Five months after consent (April 2019), participants will receive another digital invitation in their e-Boks, this time to fill in a questionnaire and access their personal health profile. Participants can opt out at any time during the intervention period by clicking an "opt-out" button on the digital support system.
