ObjectiveTo achieve consensus amongst health professionals and people with interstitial lung disease (ILD) on core educational topics for pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) in ILD.MethodsHealth professionals with expertise in ILD and/or PR took part in a 2-round online Delphi process. Potential educational topics for PR were rated on a 4-point Likert scale with anchors of ‘completely unimportant’ and ‘very important’. Results of each Delphi round were discussed and refined by focus groups of people with ILD, to achieve final approval of topics.ResultsHealth professional participants (n = 43) represented six disciplines from five continents. Focus group participants (n = 10) had a range of ILDs and disease severity. Consensus was reached on six core education topics: (1) Staying well with ILD; (2) Keeping fit and strong after PR; (3) Oxygen Therapy; (4) Managing breathlessness and cough; (5) Overcoming fatigue; (6) Managing anxiety, depression and panic.ConclusionThis study has identified core educational topics for people with ILD who undertake PR, incorporating the perspectives of both patients and health professionals. This is a step towards comprehensive PR for people with ILD.Practice implicationsThis study provides PR clinicians with guidance on ILD-specific education topics that can be delivered in existing PR programs. 相似文献

ObjectiveAmong children in low-income families 1) examine associations between parent activation and pediatric primary care outcomes and 2) explore parent perspectives on Parent-Patient Activation Measure (P-PAM) questions in relation to pediatric primary care experiences.MethodsWe examined associations between P-PAM score via Spanish- or English-language survey and healthcare outcomes abstracted from electronic medical records for parent/child dyads at an urban general pediatrics clinic. Parent perspectives were elicited via qualitative interviews with a subsample of parents who “thought aloud” during P-PAM completion.ResultsAmong 316 Spanish (68%) and English-language parent/child dyads, we found associations between parent activation and primary care outcomes only among Spanish-language dyads and only for weight and health status. Findings from 21 interviews provided possible explanations for quantitative findings including question limitations in assessing knowledge, skills, and confidence in pediatric primary care and P-PAM cultural and linguistic appropriateness for low-income Latino populations.ConclusionsPairing quantitative and qualitative methods provided insight on P-PAM measurement limitations and raised questions about its use in patient engagement interventions to reduce health disparities.Practice implicationsPractices serving vulnerable children and families should consider the limitations of the P-PAM for measuring parent healthcare engagement before utilizing the P-PAM in patient engagement interventions. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to examine associations between prostate-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and aspects of patient-physician communication in localized prostate cancer treatment.MethodsData of patients with localized prostate cancer were collected at 6-month intervals over a 3.5-year period within a prospective, observational study (HAROW). Data collection comprised D’Amico risk categories, the Charlson Comorbidity Index, patient-physician communication (information, shared decision making, support, devotion), and prostate-specific HRQOL (incontinence aid, urinary symptoms, bowel symptoms, hormonal treatment-related symptoms, sexual functioning, sexual activity). Data of N = 1722 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy were analyzed by longitudinal multilevel analysis.ResultsThe mean patient age was 65 years; 31% had a low risk and 38% an intermediate risk of cancer growth and spread; 73% had a Charlson Comorbidity Index of 0. Significant associations were found between prostate-specific HRQOL and shared decision making, support and devotion. Patient information was not significantly associated with aspects of prostate-specific HRQOL.ConclusionPatient reported long term outcomes are associated with aspects of patient-physician communication in prostate cancer patients. Patients feeling involved by their urologists experience less side effects of (surgical) treatment.Practice implicationsSpecial communication training programmes should be developed and implemented for urologists. 相似文献

ObjectiveTransition education programs dedicated to adolescents and young adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) aim to facilitate transfer to adult cardiology and bring more autonomy to teenagers. This prospective controlled multicentre study analysed the factors influencing the participation in a transition education program.MethodsCHD patients aged 13–25 y were offered to participate in the transition program. A multiple linear regression identified the explanatory factors for participation in the program.ResultsA total of 123 patients (mean age 19.6 ± 3.4 y) were included in the study, with 57 participants and 66 non-participants. Both groups showed similar socio-demographic and quality of life characteristics, low level of physical activity with muscular deconditioning and high exposure to risk behaviours (71% patients with ≥1 risk factor). Patients with complex CHD (OR = 4.1, P = 0.03), poor disease knowledge (OR = 0.3, P = 0.02), risk behaviours (body piercing, OR = 5.53, P = 0.01; alcohol, OR = 3.12, P = 0.06), and aged <20 y (OR = 0.29, P = 0.03), were more likely to join the program.ConclusionMany risk factors influencing the participation of adolescents and young adults with CHD in transition education programs are controllable.Practice implicationFurther randomized studies are necessary to evaluate the impact of transition education program on quality of life, successful transfer to adult centre and, ultimately, prognosis. 相似文献

Background
Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 19A ST320, a highly multiresistant and virulent clone, has emerged as a common pathogen causing acute otitis media (AOM) in children.Methods
Patients aged 0–18 years with AOM who presented at Mackay Memorial Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan were prospectively enrolled between December 1, 2009, and November 30, 2012. For each patient, a specimen of middle-ear fluid was obtained and cultured. S. pneumoniae isolates were tested by serotyping, antibiotic-resistance profiling, and multilocus sequence typing. Demographic characteristics and clinical history of patients with pneumococcal AOM were recorded.Results
Pneumococcal AOM was observed in 108 (24.8%) of 436 episodes. One hundred and four isolates of S. pneumoniae were available for study. The most common serotypes were 19A (67 isolates, 64.4%), followed by 19F (16 isolates, 15.4%), and 3 (7 isolates, 6.7%). Among the 85 sequence-typed isolates, Serotype 19A ST320 (50, 58.8%) was the most frequent. Children with AOM caused by Serotype 19A ST320 were younger (33.9 ± 21.4 months vs. 46.7 ± 35.9 months, p = 0.04) and had a higher rate of spontaneous rupture of the tympanic membrane (64.0% vs. 40%, p = 0.05) than those caused by isolates of other sequence types. Serotype 19A ST320 caused 90% of AOM episodes in children aged ≤ 12 months and had had higher resistance rates to penicillin according to meningeal breakpoints (p = 0.011), amoxicillin (p < 0.001) and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazol (p < 0.001).Conclusions
It is better to use pneumococcal conjugate vaccine effective against Serotype 19A in early infancy to prevent the first and subsequent episodes of AOM in children in Taiwan. 相似文献8.

ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy of an education program for people with diabetes and insulin pump treatment (INPUT) in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to the effectiveness in an implementation trial (IT).Methods135 people with diabetes on insulin pump treatment (CSII) underwent structured education with INPUT under RCT-conditions, 191 people with diabetes on CSII underwent structured education with INPUT under IT-conditions. Baseline characteristics and treatment outcomes at the 6-month follow-up were compared.ResultsAt baseline, RCT-participants were younger (42.7 ± 14.2 vs. 47.2 ± 14.1 years, p = 0.005), had higher HbA1c-values (8.3 ± 0.8% vs. 7.8 ± 1.2%, p = 0.001) and had more diabetes-related distress (27.8 ± 16.4 vs 22.4 ± 14.4, p = 0.002). At follow-up, INPUT results were comparable under the RCT and IT settings. After adjustment for baseline HbA1c, reduction of HbA1c in the IT was significantly greater than in the RCT (Δ0.17%; 95% CI 0.023–0.319%, p = 0.024). Participants with higher HbA1c-levels, more diabetes-related distress and more hypoglycemia problems were most likely to benefit from INPUT regardless of the trial setting.ConclusionsEfficacy of the INPUT program for people with CSII was demonstrated under RCT- and routine care conditions.Practice implicationsEducation with the INPUT program is effective not only under standardized RCT conditions but also under conditions of routine care. 相似文献

ObjectiveHypertension (HTN) control is a major obstacle among sub-Saharan African populations partly due to poor self-management. We explored and compared how persons’ social and physical context shapes their illness representations regarding HTN and the coping strategies they develop and adapt to mitigate challenges in self-managing HTN.MethodsA cross sectional multisite qualitative study using semi-structured interviews among 55 Ghanaians with HTN living in The Netherlands and urban and rural Ghana. A thematic approach was used in data analysis.ResultsFamily HTN history, personal experiences with HTN and outcomes of using biomedical and traditional treatments shaped participants’ illness representations and coping strategies. Migrants and urban non-migrants modified medication schedules and integrated taking medication into daily routine activities to cope with experienced side effects of taking antihypertensive medication while rural non-migrants used traditional remedies and medicines to mitigate experienced medication side effects and/or in search for a cure for HTN.ConclusionContextual factors within participants’ social and physical environments shape their illness representations and coping strategies for HTN though interactive phrases.Practice implicationsHealth professionals should harness the relationships within peoples’ social and physical environments, encourage implementation of family-wide behavioural changes and involve family and communities in HTN treatment to enhance patients’ self-management of HTN. 相似文献

Interleukin-17 F (IL-17F) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that participate in inflammatory responses. Studies showed that IL-17F is likely involved in tumor development, but the biological function of IL-17F in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the biological role of IL-17F in NSCLC and investigate its correlation with biological markers CD31, P53, Ki-67 and E-cadherin. Paraffin-embedded tumor tissues from 55 NSCLC patients were collected to detect proteins expression using immunohistochemistry (IHC). 12 normal lung tissues samples were used as control. IHC results showed that the expression of IL-17F in NSCLC cells (61.8%) was significantly higher compared with normal lung tissues (25.0%) (P < 0.05). The expression of IL-17F was positively associated with tumor differentiation and negatively associated with lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P all < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that IL-17F expression was an independent factor associated with TNM staging (P < 0.01). Pearson’s correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between IL-17F and CD31 expression and a positive correlation between IL-17F and E-cadherin expression (P all < 0.05). There was no relationship between IL-17 F and P53 or Ki-67 expression in NSCLC tissues (P > 0.05). These data suggest that IL-17 F may be considered as a potential marker for predicting the progression of NSCLC. 相似文献
