Methods Patients with chronic diseases treated in Mianyang Central Hospital from May 2018 to April 2019 were selected. The patients were randomly divided into intervention group and control group according to the single and even number at the end of hospitalization number. The control group adopted the traditional chronic disease management mode, and the intervention group adopted the “Internet+” chronic disease management mode based on the patients’ needs. And select the nursing experts who provide “Internet+” online nursing services. Compared with the effective management before and after the implementation of “Internet+” chronic disease management, the number of patients with chronic diseases, clinical outcome indicators, the number of health education readings, the number of Internet nursing services, and the sense of professional benefit of nurses and other indicators, etc. Results A total of 143 patients were included, including 78 in the control group and 65 in the intervention group. A total of 28 nursing experts were investigated. The effective management rate of patients with chronic diseases was 78.7%. The WeChat public account “Slow Disease Window” has read nearly 90 000 person-times, and the Internet Hospital “Nursing Professional Online” has nearly 2 000 online nursing services. After participating in “Internet+” chronic disease management, the disease activity and functional status of chronic disease patients were significantly improved (P<0.05). Nursing professionals have a strong sense of professional benefits (P<0.05). Conclusions With the development of “Internet+” chronic disease management, a new mode of chronic disease management was explored to promote the management of chronic disease more convenient and efficient, so that the health education work can be homogenized, the clinical outcome of the patients was effectively improved. At the same time the career planning of nursing staff can be broadened.

Cohort study is the observational study with the highest strength of causality demonstration, which is often used to test the etiological hypothesis and determine the risk factors of diseases. However, it often takes a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to carry out a cohort study, and it is time-consuming. At the same time, due to the long follow-up time, it is difficult to maintain the compliance of the study population, which is prone to loss to follow-up bias. In recent years, driven by network technology, a new type of cohort study design, e-cohort study, has gradually emerged, which is based on the network to recruit participants, follow up and collect data. Taking advantage of the wide coverage and high flexibility of the network, it provides a new strategy for improving the recruitment speed, participant participation and compliance of cohort study. This article summarizes the development history, current status, key points of design and implementation, advantages and challenges of e-cohort study, so as to help researchers to fully understand and apply this study design to solve practical clinical problems.
