Digital Care Programs for Musculoskeletal Health

Digital Care Programs for Musculoskeletal Health: a Large-scale, Multi-disorder, Observational Study

• Status: Enrolling By Invitation
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 300,000 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Sword Health, SA · Industry
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

The purpose of this study is to create a research repository, composed of data collected in the course of digital care programs for musculoskeletal conditions and musculoskeletal health delivered by SWORD Health to individuals undergoing those programs. This will allow the investigators to observe the acceptance, engagement and outcomes of programs using this approach in the treatment of multiple musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).

Detailed description

This scientific research was designed to: * Assess the adoption, engagement and feasibility of digital care programs for musculoskeletal conditions and musculoskeletal health * Assess the results of digital care programs and compare the costs with the benefits obtained; * Increase the knowledge on several musculoskeletal conditions, namely how they progress and respond to digital care programs; * Develop new or improved tools to assist clinicians in the management of these conditions and in helping people achieve better musculoskeletal health Collection and objective analysis of the collected data will allow: 1. Assess the adoption, engagement and feasibility of digital care programs for musculoskeletal conditions and musculoskeletal health 2. Assess the results of digital care programs and compare the costs with the benefits obtained; 3. Correlate the results with patient's demographic and clinical profiles; 4. Examine the impact of mental health and the behavioral modification components of SWORD Health interventions on disease markers, comorbidities, and productivity; 5. Increase the knowledge on several musculoskeletal conditions, namely how they progress and respond to digital care programs; 6. Develop new or improved tools to assist clinicians in the management of these conditions and in helping people achieve better musculoskeletal health Clinical outcomes The primary outcome will be the evolution of patient's clinical condition along the rehabilitation program, objectively estimated through the monitoring data collected using SWORD Phoenix®, as part of patients' supervision routine. Depending on the condition, primary and secondary outcome measures vary. In any case, this registry will include a complete characterisation of the clinical condition, as well as the periodic assessment of: a) joints' range of motion (collect by the medical device); b) performance indicators (through condition-specific tests); c) patient-reported outcomes (obtained using internationally validated pathology-specific questionnaires); d) pain and fatigue levels (reported by patients by the end of each therapeutic exercise session); e) compliance; f) patient satisfaction

Conditions

• Musculoskeletal Diseases

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Acute and post-acute	These programs will cover patients suffering from acute or post-acute musculoskeletal conditions including, but not limited to, shoulder pain (tendinitis/impingement/bursitis), neck pain, low back pain, knee or hip pain/osteoarthritis, which significantly impact their quality of life, to the extent they seek specialised care in direct relation to these disorders.
DEVICE	Chronic	These programs will cover patients suffering from chronic musculoskeletal conditions including, but not limited to, shoulder pain (tendinitis/impingement/bursitis), neck pain, low back pain, knee or hip pain/osteoarthritis, which significantly impact their quality of life, to the extent they seek specialised care in direct relation to these disorders.
DEVICE	Post-surgical	These programs will cover patients submitted to surgery for a given musculoskeletal condition, including, but not limited to, shoulder tendon repair, shoulder replacement, spinal surgery, hip or knee replacement, meniscal repair, knee ligament reconstruction, undergoing physical rehabilitation programs after surgery.
