A study published in JAMA Network Open found that oncology care via telehealth was associated with time, travel and cost savings among cancer patients.

A recent study found patients using virtual reality while undergoing hand surgery required less anesthesia during surgery.  

The study also found that applying a federated learning approach can further improve accuracy of the model.  

Researchers carried out 17 interviews with doctors and nurses using a free oncology decision support app in Europe.

A study published last week in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association shows that in one patient population, use or non use of a patient portal had no statistically significant effect on 30-day readmissions or 30-day mortality.

Using a smartphone app to monitor weight loss is effective if the user is willing to self-monitor calories, but for most patients, using a health app won't result in a substantial weight change, according to a UCLA study in the Annals of Internal Medicine of 212 primary care patients.
