COVID Oximetry @ home services have been supporting people to monitor their oxygen levels with pulse oximeters throughout the pandemic, helping avoid unnecessary hospital admissions, as well as invasive ventilation and ICU admission. @CeciliaVindrola@UCLPopHealthSci (2/6)
The #RSET#BRACE evaluation looked at 8 NHS sites. π₯ #BRACE researcher Dr Manbinder Sidhu explained the importance of the project. π @_HSMCentre
The authors also contributed to this @bmj_latest Practice Pointer which gives guidance on how to set up virtual wards and the practicalities and cautions of using pulse oximeters at home. bmj.com/content/372/bm⦠(4/6)
In his recent blog, @mattinadakim discussed how remote home monitoring could change how we provide care for good. π²
Findings from phase 2 of the COVID Oximetry @ Home study will be published in the summer. Our @NIHRresearch-funded Rapid Service Evaluation Team includes researchers from the Nuffield Trust & @ucl. Find out more about their work here. πnuffieldtrust.org.uk/rset-the-rapidβ¦#RSET (6/6)

The researchers analysed data from:
π 140,830 participants aged between 4-24
π in 36 national surveys in England, Scotland and Wales
π The surveys asked children and young people (and parents of children aged 4-12) whether they had a long standing mental health condition
π The authors found a 6x increase in how many children and young people in England reported having a long-standing mental health condition between 1995 - 2014
β This means almost 1 in 20 children and young people in England reported having a mental health condition in 2014
