Jade Hollingworth MBBS BSc Rachel Pietsch MBBS BSc Mathias Epee‐Bekima MD MRCOG FRANZCOG Elizabeth Nathan M.Biostat 《The Australian journal of rural health》2018,26(1):42-47
Objective
To describe the outcomes of patients transferred to King Edward Memorial Hospital (KEMH) with signs of labour at preterm gestations.Design
A retrospective observational study of the 69 cases transferred to KEMH during 2015.Setting
Patient transfers from all locations across Western Australia (WA) to the sole tertiary perinatal centre in Perth.Participants
Pregnant women within WA with threatened or actual preterm labour (PTL) or preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) between 23 and 32 weeks gestation.Main outcome measures
The occurrence of delivery during the admission and time‐to‐delivery as well as length of admission and association between clinical factors and time‐to‐delivery.Results
The percentage of the study population delivered during the admission following transfer was 72.5%. Eighty‐six per cent of those who delivered did so within 72 hours of transfer. The median time from transfer to delivery was 1 day. Sixty‐three per cent of those who did not deliver during the admission progressed to 36 weeks gestation. Patients transferred with PPROM were less likely to deliver during the admission compared to those with uterine activity (50% versus 19.6%, P = 0.007) and nulliparas were more likely to deliver (93.5% versus 55.3%, P < 0.001).Conclusion
The majority of women transferred with signs of PTL progress to delivery during the same admission with the highest risk of delivery being the first 72 hours following transfer. If the pregnancy is ongoing at 72 hours, there is a reasonable chance of progression to late preterm gestation supporting the return of woman to their place of origin for antenatal care following discharge. 相似文献2.
The use of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in Fanconi anaemia patients: a survey of decision making among families in the US and Canada 下载免费PDF全文
Sadie P. Hutson PhD RN WHNP BC Paul K. J. Han MD MA MPH Jada G. Hamilton PhD MPH Sean C. Rife MA Mohamad M. Al‐Rahawan MD MPH Richard P. Moser PhD Seth P. Duty RN BSN Sheeba Anand MPH Blanche P. Alter MD MPH 《Health expectations》2015,18(5):929-941
Background
Fanconi anaemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder associated with bone marrow failure (BMF), congenital anomalies and cancer susceptibility. Stem cell transplantation (SCT) offers a potential cure for BMF or leukaemia, but incurs substantial risks. Little is known about factors influencing SCT decision making.Objective
The study objective was to explore factors influencing patients' with FA and family members' decision making about SCT.Design
Using a mixed‐methods exploratory design, we surveyed US and Canadian patients with FA and family members who were offered SCT.Main variables studied
Closed‐ended survey items measured respondents' beliefs about the necessity, risks and concerns regarding SCT; multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the association between these factors and the decision to undergo SCT. Open‐ended survey items measured respondents' perceptions of factors important to the SCT decision; qualitative analysis was used to identify emergent themes.Results
The decision to undergo SCT was significantly associated with greater perceived necessity (OR = 2.81, P = 0.004) and lower concern about harms of SCT (OR = 0.31, P = 0.03). Qualitative analysis revealed a perceived lack of choice among respondents regarding the use of SCT, which was related to physician influence and respondent concerns about patients' quality of life.Conclusions
Overall, study results emphasize the importance of the delicate interplay between provider recommendation of a medical procedure and patient/parental perceptions and decision making. Findings can help providers understand the need to acknowledge family members' perceptions of SCT decision making and offer a comprehensive discussion of the necessity, risks, benefits and potential outcomes. 相似文献3.

Objective
To assess how age-friendly deprescribing trials are regarding intervention design and outcome assessment. Reduced use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) can be addressed by deprescribing—a systematic process of discontinuing and/or reducing the use of PIMs. The 4Ms—“Medication”, “Mentation”, “Mobility”, and “What Matters Most” to the person—can be used to guide assessment of age-friendliness of deprescribing trials.Data Source
Published literature.Study Design
Scoping review.Data Extraction Methods
The literature was identified using keywords related to deprescribing and polypharmacy in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, ProQuest, CINAHL, and Cochrane and snowballing. Study characteristics were extracted and evaluated for consideration of 4Ms.Principal Findings
Thirty-seven of the 564 trials identified met the review eligibility criteria. Intervention design: “Medication” was considered in the intervention design of all trials; “Mentation” was considered in eight trials; “Mobility” (n = 2) and “What Matters Most” (n = 6) were less often considered in the design of intervention. Most trials targeted providers without specifying how matters important to older adults and their families were aligned with deprescribing decisions. Outcome assessment: “Medication” was the most commonly assessed outcome (n = 33), followed by “Mobility” (n = 13) and “Mentation” (n = 10) outcomes, with no study examining “What Matters Most” outcomes.Conclusions
“Mentation” and “Mobility”, and “What Matters Most” have been considered to varying degrees in deprescribing trials, limiting the potential of deprescribing evidence to contribute to improved clinical practice in building an age-friendly health care system. 相似文献6.
Patient and public perspectives of community pharmacies in the United Kingdom: A systematic review 下载免费PDF全文
Ali M. K. Hindi BPharm MSc Ellen I. Schafheutle PhD MRes MSc FFRPS Sally Jacobs BSc PhD 《Health expectations》2018,21(2):409-428
Background
The United Kingdom has been at the forefront of enhancing pharmacist roles and community pharmacy services, particularly over the past decade. However, patient and public awareness of community pharmacy services has been limited.Objective
To identify and synthesize the research literature pertaining to patient and public perspectives on: existing community pharmacy services, extended pharmacist roles and strategies to raise awareness of community pharmacy services.Search strategy
Systematic search of 8 electronic databases; hand searching of relevant journals, reference lists and conference proceedings.Inclusion criteria
UK studies investigating patient or public views on community pharmacy services or pharmacist roles from 2005 to 2016.Data extraction and synthesis
Data were extracted into a grid and subjected to narrative synthesis following thematic analysis.Main results
From the 3260 unique papers identified, 30 studies were included. Manual searching identified 4 additional studies. Designs using questionnaires (n = 14, 41%), semi‐structured interviews (n = 8, 24%) and focus groups (n = 6, 18%) made up the greatest proportion of studies. Most of the studies (n = 28, 82%) were published from 2010 onwards and covered perceptions of specific community pharmacy services (n = 31). Using a critical appraisal checklist, the overall quality of studies was deemed acceptable. Findings were grouped into 2 main themes “public cognizance” and “attitudes towards services” each with 4 subthemes.Discussion and conclusions
Patients and the public appeared to view services as beneficial. Successful integration of extended pharmacy services requires pharmacists’ clinical skills to be recognized by patients and physicians. Future research should explore different approaches to increase awareness. 相似文献7.

Developing and testing a brief clinic‐based lung cancer screening decision aid for primary care settings 下载免费PDF全文
Karen Kane McDonnell PhD RN OCN Scott M. Strayer MD MPH Erica Sercy MSPH Callie Campbell BA Daniela B. Friedman PhD Kathleen B. Cartmell PhD MPH Jan M. Eberth PhD 《Health expectations》2018,21(4):796-804
Background
Cancer screening‐related decisions require patients to evaluate complex medical information in short time frames, often with primary care providers (PCPs) they do not know. PCPs play an essential role in facilitating comprehensive shared decision making (SDM).Objective
To develop and test a decision aid (DA) and SDM strategy for PCPs and high‐risk patients.Design
The DA was tested with 20 dyads. Each dyad consisted of one PCP and one patient eligible for screening. A prospective, one‐group, mixed‐method study design measured fidelity, patient values, screening intention, acceptability and satisfaction.Results
Four PCPs and 20 patients were recruited from an urban academic medical centre. Most patients were female (n = 14, 70%), most had completed high school (n = 15, 75%), and their average age was 65 years old. Half were African American. Patients and PCPs rated the DA as helpful, easy to read and use and acceptable in terms of time frame (observed t = 11.6 minutes, SD 2.7). Most patients (n = 16, 80%) indicated their intent to be screened. PCPs recommended screening for most patients (n = 17, 85%).Conclusions
Evidence supports the value of lung cancer screening with LDCT for select high‐risk patients. Guidelines endorse engaging patients and their PCPs in SDM discussions. Our findings suggest that using a brief, interactive, plain‐language, culturally sensitive, theory‐based DA and SDM strategy is feasible, acceptable and may be essential to effectively translate and sustain the adoption of LDCT screening recommendations into the clinic setting. 相似文献9.

Objective
To assess the effectiveness of a hospital physical therapy (PT) referral triggered by scores on a mobility assessment embedded in the electronic health record (EHR) and completed by nursing staff on hospital admission.Data Sources
EHR and billing data from 12 acute care hospitals in a western Pennsylvania health system (January 2017–February 2018) and 11 acute care hospitals in a northeastern Ohio health system (August 2019–July 2021).Study Design
We utilized a regression discontinuity design to compare patients admitted to PA hospitals with stroke who reached the mobility score threshold for an EHR-PT referral (treatment) to those who did not (control). Outcomes were hospital length of stay (LOS) and 30-day readmission or mortality. Control variables included demographics, insurance, income, and comorbidities. Hospital systems with EHR-PT referrals were also compared to those without (OH hospitals as alternative control). Subgroup analyses based on age were also conducted.Data Extraction
We identified adult patients with a primary or secondary diagnosis of stroke and mobility assessments completed by nursing (n = 4859 in PA hospitals, n = 1749 in OH hospitals) who completed their inpatient stay.Principal Findings
In the PA hospitals, patients with EHR-PT referrals had an 11.4 percentage-point decrease in their 30-day readmission or mortality rates (95% CI −0.57, −0.01) relative to the control. This effect was not observed in the OH hospitals for 30-day readmission (β = 0.01; 95% CI −0.25, 0.26). Adults over 60 years old with EHR-PT referrals in PA had a 26.2 percentage-point (95% CI −0.88, −0.19) decreased risk of readmission or mortality compared to those without. Unclear relationships exist between EHR-PT referrals and hospital LOS in PA.Conclusions
Health systems should consider methodologies to facilitate early acute care hospital PT referrals informed by mobility assessments. 相似文献12.

Reliability and validity of the Korean‐language version of the Communication Function Classification System in children with cerebral palsy 下载免费PDF全文
Purpose
The Communication Function Classification System (CFCS) and Viking Speech Scale (VSS) are useful systems for describing the broad communication function and speech intelligibility, respectively, of children with cerebral palsy (CP). The aims of this study were to determine the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the CFCS and also to investigate the association between the CFCS and the VSS and other functional classifications for children with CP.Materials and methods
Participants were 50 children with CP (33 males, 17 females; mean age 7.2 years, range 4–16 years) recruited from a rehabilitation hospital. We analysed the interrater and intrarater reliabilities of the Korean version of the CFCS and VSS between parents, a physiatrist, and a speech–language pathologist (SLP). The social function domain of the Paediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory was assessed to examine the concurrent validity of the CFCS and VSS.Results
The intrarater reliabilities of the CFCS and VSS were excellent in a physiatrist (? = 0.92, ? = 0.94, respectively) and an SLP (? = 0.98, ? = 0.98) and very good in parents (? = 0.87, ? = 0.89). The interrater reliability of the CFCS and VSS was very good between the physiatrist and SLP (? = 0.87, ? = 0.89) and good between parents and the SLP (? = 0.63, ? = 0.78) and between parents and the physiatrist (? = 0.61, ? = 0.76). The CFCS and VSS were strongly related with the social function domain of Paediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory. In addition, we found very strong associations between the VSS and CFCS.Conclusions
The Korean version of the CFCS is a valid and reliable tool to classify communication ability and is strongly associated with the VSS, a reliable tool to classify speech intelligibility. 相似文献16.

Background
Children on the autism spectrum participate less frequently, and in a narrower range of activities, than their nonautistic peers, but little is known about exact participation patterns across contexts or how this is perceived by caregivers. This study aimed to document patterns of participation and caregiver views with regard to frequency and intensity of activities.Method
Caregivers of children on the spectrum aged 5 (n = 90) and 9–10 years (n = 128) completed the Participation and Environment Measure for Children and Youth for home, school, and community. Caregivers reported on frequency of child's participation, level of involvement, and caregivers' desire for change in participation patterns.Results
Item‐level analyses revealed similar patterns of participation across home, school, and community for both cohorts with some small age‐appropriate differences. Caregivers generally desired increased diversity, frequency, and involvement in activities but a decreased use of electronics (computers, games, TV, and DVDs).Conclusion
The possibility of autism‐specific participation patterns could inform future interventions aimed at enhancing social inclusion. This warrants further investigation through multiinformant designs that seek the perspectives of the child and caregivers. 相似文献19.
