Linking Parent Confidence and Hospitalization through Mobile Health: A Multisite Pilot Study

In this publication, authors including HIP Investigator, Dr. Ryan Coller conducted a multisite pilot study of an mHealth platform with CMC caregivers (Assessing Confidence at Times of Increased Vulnerability [ACTIV]). ACTIV uses longitudinal text messaging to prospectively monitor parent confidence for their child to avoid hospitalization over the subsequent month. Their aim was to identify associations between ACTIV’s repeated measures and CMC hospitalization, and to evaluate ACTIV’s feasibility/acceptability when implemented within a complex care program.
