Smart Technology Facilitated Patient-Centered Venous Thromboembolism Management (the SmaVTE Study): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant public health issue, with a rising global incidence despite extensive research efforts. Patient-centered care, which tailors treatment to individual needs, has shown potential in enhancing outcomes. The integration of smart technologies with psychological frameworks such as the health belief model and the knowledge-attitude-practice (KAP) model may further improve patient engagement and adherence. To address this, we have developed a smart technique-assisted patient-centered care mobile health app for managing VTE (mVTEA), which integrates psychological frameworks to improve patient outcomes in VTE management.

Objective

This study aims to investigate the impact of the mVTEA app on the knowledge, attitudes, and practice
