Healthcare systems rely heavily upon human resources to ensure high-quality access care for the general population. With significant health worker shortages predicted worldwide in coming decades, maximizing current workforce by means of a physician resource planning (PRP) strategy that ensures right number, mix, and distribution physicians meet population needs is warranted. In Canada, there an insufficient number primary providers, disproportionately low numbers specialist rural compared...
Background: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) causes progressive muscle wasting. The Canadian Neuromuscular Disease Registry (CNDR) previously developed a comprehensive DMD dataset in accordance with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). Our objective was to develop brief ICF core set that best aligns priorities individuals families affected by DMD. Methods: A literature review practices prepared reviewed multidisciplinary team at CNDR. entire process...
Background: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked disease that causes progressive muscle wasting. The Canadian Neuromuscular Disease Registry (CNDR) DMD subset collects data focused on body structure and function. Our objective to develop a broader dataset including the priorities of those living with in accordance International Classification Functioning, Disability, Health (ICF) – framework for describing health functions developed by World Organization.
