Behavioral Health Care and Technology: Using Science-Based Innovations to Transform Practice

Editat de Lisa Marsch, Sarah Lord, Jesse Dallery
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 ian 2015
In recent years, there has been an explosion of research focused on using technology in health care, including web- and mobile- health assessment and intervention tools, as well as smartphone sensors and smart environments for monitoring and promoting health behavior. This work has shown that technology-based therapeutic tools offer considerable promise for monitoring and responding to individuals' health behavior in real-time. They may also function as important "clinician-extenders" or stand-alone tools, may be cost-effective and may offer countless opportunities for tailoring behavioral monitoring and intervention delivery in a manner that is optimally responsive to each individual's profile and health behavior trajectory over time. Additionally, informational and communication technologies may be used in the context of decision support tools to help individuals better understand and access treatment. Technology may enable entirely new models of health care both within and outside of formal systems of care and thus offers the opportunity to revolutionize health care delivery.This edited book will define the state of scientific research related to the development, experimental evaluation, and effective dissemination of technology-based therapeutic tools targeting behavioral health. Behavioral Health Care and Technology will provide an overview of current evidence-based approaches to leverage technology to promote behavioral health, including management of substance use, mental health, diet/exercise, medication adherence, as well as chronic disease self-management. Additionally, the book will define the state of implementation research examining models for deploying technology-based behavioral health care systems and integrating them into various care settings to increase the quality and reach of evidence-based behavioral health care while reducing costs.

Recenzii

Kudos to Marsch, Lord, and Dallery for a thoughtful interdisciplinary collection that bridges the disconnect between theoretical and practical aspects of technology use to improve behaviors related to critical health issues in the US and globally.
For those who purchase this book, I would not recommend letting it gather dust on the bookshelf. In a similar vein, I hope that the editors have already begun work on the second edition, because like our cellular devices, this book will be history before we know it.
This book would be of interest to both researchers and clinicians from a wide variety of disciplines with a shared interest in behavioural healthcare and technology... a useful handbook for introducing this exceptionally interesting topic area.
