A randomized controlled study about the use of eHealth in the home health care of premature infants
Open accessAbstract
Background: One area where the use of information and communication technology (ICT), or eHealth, could be developed is the home health care of premature infants. The aim of this randomized controlled study was to investigate whether the use of video conferencing or a web application improves parents’ satisfaction in taking care of a premature infant at home and decreases the need of home visits. In addition, nurses’ attitudes regarding the use of these tools were examined. Method: Thirty-four families were randomized to one of three groups before their premature infant was discharged from the hospital to home health care: a control group receiving standard home health care (13 families); a web group receiving home health care supplemented with the use of a web application (12 families); a video group with home health care supplemented with video conferencing using Skype (9 families). Families and nursing staff answered questionnaires about the usefulness of ICT. In addition, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 families. Results: All the parents in the web group found the web application easy to use. 83% of the families thought it was good to have access to their child’s data through the application. All the families in the video group found Skype easy to use and were satisfied with the video calls. 88% of the families thought that video calls were better than ordinary phone calls. 33% of the families in the web group and 75% of those in the video group thought the need for home visits was decreased by the web application or Skype. 50% of the families in the web group and 100% of those in the video group thought the web application or the video calls had helped them feel more confident in caring for their child. Most of the nurses were motivated to use ICT but some were reluctant and avoided using the web application and video conferencing. Conclusion: The families were satisfied with both the web application and video conferencing. The families readily embraced the use of ICT, whereas motivating some of the nurses to accept and use ICT was a major challenge.

In-person home visits reduced parental fear.
“The face-to-face communication and support provided by in-person home visits was shown to reduce parental stress, anxiety, and fear, increase parental confidence, competency, feeling of being supported, sense of security, and trust in the infant’s capacity (Baraldi et al., 2020; dos Santos et al., 2014; Gund et al., 2013; Kynø et al., 2013; Ravn et al., 2012; Spencer-Smith et al., 2012).”

In Results, under “Families’ opinions about the home health care in general” (page not provided), parents said home visits helped them feel confident caring for their baby. The paper does not report measuring parental fear or show that visits reduced it; confidence is a related but different outcome. (LLM, conf=0.78)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAll families who received phone calls in addition to in-person home visits reported feeling more confident in caring for their infants at home.

The Results (Results specific to the use of Skype; page unavailable) report that all eight families in the Skype group said video calls helped them feel more confident caring for their child at home. The paper distinguishes those video calls from ordinary phone calls; it does not report that all families receiving ordinary phone calls felt more confident. (LLM, conf=0.88)

“The face-to-face communication and support provided by in-person home visits was shown to reduce parental stress, anxiety, and fear, increase parental confidence, competency, feeling of being supported, sense of security, and trust in the infant’s capacity (Baraldi et al., 2020; dos Santos et al., 2014; Gund et al., 2013; Kynø et al., 2013; Ravn et al., 2012; Spencer-Smith et al., 2012).”

In Results (Families’ opinions about the home health care in general; page unavailable), parents said home visits helped them feel confident, and 97% said the visits were not stressful. The paper does not show that in-person visits reduced parental stress, anxiety, or fear; reporting that visits were not stressful is not evidence of a reduction. (LLM, conf=0.88)

In Results, under “Families’ opinions about the home health care in general” (page not provided), parents said home visits helped them feel confident caring for their baby. The paper does not report that visits increased parents’ caregiving competency; its reference to being “competent” describes the nurses. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About 7% of families felt there was no need for the web app since their infants were stable post-discharge.
“Of note, about 7% of families felt there was no need for the web app since their infants were stable post-discharge (Gund et al., 2013).”
From Scoping review of interventions to support families with preterm infants post-NICU discharge (2022) · cites this paper as Gund et al., 2013
The Results section says some families felt no need for the web application because their infants were stable during home health care. It does not give a percentage for those families, so the claimed figure of about 7% is unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn-person home visits and web app may be more beneficial for families whose infants had higher medical risk factors or complications.
“Researchers also noted that the in-person home visits and web app may be more beneficial for families whose infants had higher medical risk factors or complications (Awindaogo et al., 2016; Baraldi et al., 2020; Gund et al., 2013).”
From Scoping review of interventions to support families with preterm infants post-NICU discharge (2022) · cites this paper as Gund et al., 2013
In the Results (web application; page not available), some families said the application made little difference because their infants were healthy and doing well. The Discussion (page not available) describes regular home visits as helpful, but the paper does not assess whether visits or the web application are more beneficial for families whose infants have higher medical risks or complications. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe NeoRaksha, Care@Distance, and family mobile apps allowed for remote monitoring of infant growth, developmental milestones, health status post-discharge, immunization status, scheduling clinic visits, identification of risks, referrals, and infant care and development information.
“Similarly, the NeoRaksha, Care@Distance, and family mobile apps allowed for remote monitoring of infant growth, developmental milestones, health status post-discharge, immunization status, scheduling clinic visits, identification of risks, referrals, and infant care and development information (Gund et al., 2013; Hägi-Pedersen et al., 2022; Nayak et al., 2019).”
From Scoping review of interventions to support families with preterm infants post-NICU discharge (2022) · cites this paper as Gund et al., 2013
The Methods section (“The web application,” page not provided) identifies Care@Distance and describes sharing infant weight, head-circumference, health, and nutrition data, plus information about preterm infants’ health and development. It describes a web application, not a mobile app, and does not establish monitoring of developmental milestones or immunizations, clinic scheduling, risk identification, or referrals. This paper does not establish the features of the other two named apps. (LLM, conf=0.88)

In Results (Families’ opinions about home health care), parents said home visits helped them feel confident, and 97% said the visits were not stressful. Neither finding establishes that the visits reduced parental anxiety. The Discussion mentions reduced anxiety only in connection with other studies of video calls, not this study’s in-person visits.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
