Inclusion and exclusion lines below are quoted from ClinicalTrials.gov. No match score is shown, because a score needs a person's age, biomarkers, and treatment dates. Confirm the record with the study team.
Rationale: During cross-border health emergencies, such as seen with the COVID-19 pandemic, health and care services are rapidly being overwhelmed by high numbers of patients requiring care, leading to stretches in the whole healthcare system. Delays and backlogs in regular care, as the result of the stretched health care services, leave millions of patients with regular care needs unattended, resulting in disastrous healthcare outcomes. If disastrous healthcare outcomes across the population are to be avoided, healthcare systems must become more robust, resilient, and flexible in the face of future health emergencies and allow for rapid changes in the care delivery services. Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of delivering a hybrid care model alongside care as usual through observations, and questionnaires and interviews on patient reported views, opinions, and experiences. This hybrid care model aims to reduce the burden on health and care systems during a health emergency, decrease the need to scale down regular care, and ensure patient safety and quality of care. Study design: One year cohort study, using observations, questionnaires, and interviews....
