Exploring Technical Features to Enhance Control in Videoconferencing Psychotherapy: Quantitative Study on Clinicians’ Perspectives

Exploring Technical Features to Enhance Control in Videoconferencing Psychotherapy: Quantitative Study on Clinicians’ Perspectives

The COVID-19 pandemic required psychologists worldwide to discontinue face-to-face (FTF) psychotherapy and deliver psychotherapy sessions through videoconferencing technologies (VCTs) [1]. Although necessary, social distancing revolutionized the psychological and social dimensions of private and public life [2], which worsened the onset of psychological symptoms, such as anxiety and posttraumatic stress [3-6].

User Experience of a Bespoke Videoconferencing System for Web-Based Family Visitation for Patients in an Intensive Care Unit: 1-Year Cross-Sectional Survey of Nursing Staff

At the beginning of the pandemic, hospitals quickly adopted technological solutions, including videoconferencing systems, to maintain or reopen communication channels. Previous studies have shown that adopting telemedicine solutions has numerous barriers, including the user’s acceptance and experience with the technology [8-10]. Other studies have shown positive patient experiences using videoconferencing systems for web-based family support during patient rounds.

Integrating Videoconferencing Therapist Guidance Into Stepped Care Internet-Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Child and Adolescent Anxiety: Noninferiority Randomized Controlled Trial

Integrating Videoconferencing Therapist Guidance Into Stepped Care Internet-Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Child and Adolescent Anxiety: Noninferiority Randomized Controlled Trial

Specifically, this noninferiority RCT examines whether a stepped care version of ICBT using therapist guidance via videoconferencing for the step-up component (ICBT-SC[VC]) can produce the same benefits for young people as evidence-based ICBT with therapist guidance provided throughout the whole treatment via videoconferencing (ICBT-TG[VC]).

Use of mHealth Technology for Improving Exercise Adherence in Patients With Heart Failure: Systematic Review

As summarized in Table 2, videoconferencing was used in 4 studies [35,36,38,40], while 4 studies [33,34,37,39] used mobile apps for the devices used in the study. The apps were installed in smartphones (n=3) [33,34,37], laptops, tablets, or desktop computers using Wi-Fi or 3 G wireless broadband connection (n=4) [35,36,38,39], and 1 study used a television that was connected to the internet [40].

How Informal Carers Support Video Consulting in Physiotherapy, Heart Failure, and Cancer: Qualitative Study Using Linguistic Ethnography

Videoconferencing technologies and the visual angle of webcams are designed for one-to-one conversations [39]. These aspects of technology add to the complexity of the interactional dynamics that already exist for triadic consultations (ie, involving a patient, clinician, and informal carer), where participants may struggle with turn-taking [34,35].

Barriers to Video Call–Based Telehealth in Allied Health Professions and Nursing: Scoping Review and Mapping Process

Everyday technologies, such as computers, tablets, smartphones, webcams, videoconferencing software, and an internet connection, make such services relatively accessible. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a demand for readily available solutions without the need for additional infrastructure or equipment. The rapid implementation of video visits with health care professionals prevented infections [25] and kept the health care system running [26-29].
