Stroke is the most disabling chronic condition, newly affecting 35000 persons in Canada each year. Because of declining fatality, a growing number will have to cope with stroke-related disability. The purpose this paper describe disabilities experienced by stroke during first year and explore evolution impairment, disability, handicap health-related quality life.The data for come from series longitudinal cross-sectional studies, collectively known as McGill Rehabilitation Research...
<h3>Importance</h3> High rates of inappropriate prescribing persist among older adults in many outpatient settings, increasing the risk adverse drug events and drug-related hospitalizations. <h3>Objective</h3> To compare effectiveness a consumer-targeted, pharmacist-led educational intervention vs usual care on discontinuation medication community-dwelling adults. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> A cluster randomized trial (D-PRESCRIBE [Developing Pharmacist-Led Research to Educate...
The goal of comparative effectiveness research (CER) is to explain the differential benefits and harms alternate methods prevent, diagnose, treat, monitor a clinical condition or improve delivery care. To inform decision making, information from patient's perspective that reflects outcomes patients care about are needed can be collected rigorously using appropriate patient-reported (PRO). It challenging select most PRO measure given proliferation such questionnaires over past 20 years.In...
Patient-reported outcome and experience measures (PROMs/PREMs) are well established in research for many health conditions, but barriers persist implementing them routine care. Implementation science (IS) offers a potential way forward, its application has been limited PROMs/PREMs.We compare similarities differences widely used IS frameworks their applicability PROMs/PREMs through case studies. Three studies implemented PROMs: (1) pain clinics Canada; (2) oncology Australia; (3)...
Background: The Internet and eHealth technologies represent new opportunities for managing health. Age, sex, socioeconomic status, current technology use are some of the known factors that influence individuals’ uptake eHealth; however, relatively little is about facilitators barriers to specific older adults, particularly as they relate their experiences in accessing health care. Objective: aim our study was explore interests, preferences, concerns adults using relation with care system....

The patient voice is critical to achieving value-based care, improving health outcomes, and advancing medical research. However, a key challenge how translate this "voice" into scientifically valid data that can inform evidence-based clinical decisions. One of the biggest barriers sheer variety available patient-reported outcomes (PROs) outcome measures (PROMs) associated challenges translation, validation, implementation, interpretation, making it difficult obtain comparable outcomes....
