The Factors Associated With Nonuse of Social Media or Video Communications to Connect With Friends and Family During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Older Adults: Web-Based Survey Study

The Factors Associated With Nonuse of Social Media or Video Communications to Connect With Friends and Family During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Older Adults: Web-Based Survey Study

Since technology has played a vital role during this pandemic and will continue to do so postpandemic, timely data on nonusers are important to appropriately target interventions and supports. We conducted a survey among community-dwelling older Canadians to assess their use of social media or video communications to connect with friends and family and examined factors associated with their nonuse of this technology early in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pragmatic Strategy Empowering Paramedics to Assess Low-Risk Trauma Patients With the Canadian C-Spine Rule and Selectively Transport Them Without Immobilization: Protocol for a Stepped-Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial

Pragmatic Strategy Empowering Paramedics to Assess Low-Risk Trauma Patients With the Canadian C-Spine Rule and Selectively Transport Them Without Immobilization: Protocol for a Stepped-Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial

Ontario paramedic services annually transport half a million patients with a potential neck (cervical/c-spine) injury from falls or motor vehicle collisions to local emergency departments (EDs). Of these patients, 95.0% (95/100) are alert and stable and at low risk of c-spine injury. Less than 1.0% (1/100) have a c-spine fracture, and even less (1/200, 0.5%) have a spinal cord injury.
