高齢者向けのエルダーツリー スマート システム

2026年9月24日 更新者:University of Wisconsin, Madison

スマート デバイスを使用して、エビデンスに基づいた高齢者向けの eHealth システムを実装する

Multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) are costly and pervasive among older adults. MCCs account for 90% of Medicare spending, and 65% of Medicare beneficiaries have 3 or more chronic conditions; 23% have 5 or more. MCCs are often addressed in primary care, where time pressures force a focus on medication and lab results rather than self-management skills.

The primary purpose of this study is to investigate whether voice-activated "smart" technology increases adoption and sustains use of an evidence-based electronic health intervention (Elder Tree, or ET) for older adults with multiple chronic conditions, and thereby improves its potential to widely enhance quality of life and health outcomes. ET is an existing intervention providing tools, motivation, and support on a computer platform to help older adults manage their health.

An Agency for Health Care Research and Quality (AHRQ)-funded randomized controlled trial (RCT) found that ET improved quality of life and other factors among high users of primary care with multiple chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension. However, many people did not use it extensively, which is a common problem with all web apps.

Participants will receive treatment as usual (TAU).

Treatment as usual (TAU)

実験的:ElderTree on laptop (ET- LT)

Participants will receive ElderTree on a laptop.

ElderTree (ET) is an existing intervention providing tools, motivation, and support on a computer platform to help older adults manage their health.

ET is based on the extensively tested Comprehensive Health Enhancement Support System (CHESS). ET is a "walled garden" free of ads, with design features based on older users' feedback as well as best-practice principles such as uncluttered screens and large type. ET uses computers to deliver key elements of successful interventions: long duration, ongoing outreach, prompts, monitoring, cognitive reframing, action planning, problem solving, self-tailoring, and peer support. ET-LT arm will access ET on Laptop (ET- LT)

実験的:ElderTree on smart system (ET- SS)

Participants will receive ElderTree on a smart system.

ElderTree (ET) is an existing intervention providing tools, motivation, and support on a computer platform to help older adults manage their health.

ET uses computers to deliver key elements of successful interventions: long duration, ongoing outreach, prompts, monitoring, cognitive reframing, action planning, problem solving, self-tailoring, and peer support.

ElderTree on smart system (ET- SS) will use voice-activated "smart" speakers connected to the Internet. Because they are used by talking and listening rather than typing and reading, many barriers associated with laptop use can be avoided.

主要な結果の測定

結果測定
メジャーの説明
時間枠
Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Short Form v2.1 - Pain Interference Score
時間枠:Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

Pain interference was measured using the 4-item subscale from the PROMIS 29. The items asked participants to answer regarding the past 7 days. Scoring of individual items varies and is calculated by the scale's developers; with higher values indicating more pain interference. The possible range is 41.1 to 76.3 (PROMIS scores reported here have weighted ranges).

Baseline, 4 months, 8 months
Change in PROMIS Short Form v2.1 - Psychosocial Quality of Life Score
時間枠:Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

Psychosocial quality of life was measured using the 12-item subscale from the PROMIS 29. The items asked participants to answer regarding the past 7 days. Scoring of individual items varies and is calculated by the scale's developers; with higher values indicating better quality of life. The possible range is 21.2 to 67.6.

Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

Days of ElderTree use within a 4 month period before their survey date. The possible range for days of ElderTree use is 0 to 120.

baseline to 4 months, and 4 months to 8 months
Physical Quality of Life
時間枠:Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

Physical quality of life was measured using the 12-item subscale from the PROMIS 29 (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) Global Health. The items asked participants to answer regarding the past 7 days. Scoring of individual items varies and is calculated by the scale's developers; with higher values indicating more physical quality of life. The possible range is 16.2-67.7.

Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

時間枠:Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

30-day readmissions were measured using a single item asking participants to answer regarding the past 4 months. The raw score, answering yes/no to having a 30-day readmission, was used. Those participants answering 'yes' to being readmitted in the last 30 days are reported for each time point.

Baseline, 4 months, 8 months
Health Distress
時間枠:Baseline, 4 months, 8 months

Health distress was measured using the 4-item Lorig Health Distress Scale. The items asked participants to answer regarding the past month. The measure was scored by averaged the items; with higher values indicating more health distress. Possible range is 0 to 5.

Baseline, 4 months, 8 months
