Abstract Introduction Complex intervention development has been described as the ‘Cinderella’ black box in health services research. Greater transparency process is urgently needed to help reduce research waste. Methods We applied a new consensus‐based framework for complex our programme of research, which we developed an improve safety and experience care transitions older people. Through this process, aimed reflect on framework's utility identify any important gaps within it support its...
The Partners at Care Transitions (PACTs) intervention was developed to support older people's involvement in hospital improve outcomes home. A booklet, question card, record sheet, induction leaflet, and patient-friendly discharge letter patients be more involved their health wellbeing, medications, activities of daily living post-discharge care. We aimed assess acceptability, identify implementation tools, further develop the intervention.
Introduction Length of hospital inpatient stays have reduced. This benefits patients, who prefer to be at home, and hospitals, which can treat more people when are shorter. Patients may, however, leave sicker, with ongoing care needs. The transition period from home risky, particularly for older patients complex health social Improving patient experience, especially through greater involvement, may improve outcomes is a key indicator quality safety. In this research, we aim to: capture the...
Background Studies indicate there is a need to improve the delivery of unexpected news via obstetric ultrasound, but have been few advances in this area. One factor preventing improvement has lack consensus regarding appropriate phrases and behaviours which sonographers ultrasound practitioners should use these situations. Aims To develop guidelines for Early Pregnancy Unit Fetal Anomaly Screening Programme NHS settings. Methods A workshop was conducted identify priorities reach on areas...
Being involved in one's care is prioritised within UK healthcare policy to improve quality and safety. However, research suggests that many older people struggle with this.We present focused ethnographic exploring peoples' involvement from hospital home.We propose being a dynamic form of labour, which we call 'involvement work' (IW). In hospital, patients 'entrust' IW others; indeed, when desired, maintaining control, or actively involved, was challenging. Patient professionals'...
Despite the evidence that many stroke survivors report longer term unmet needs, provision of care is limited. To address this, we are conducting a programme research to develop an evidence-based and replicable strategy. The developed complex intervention (named New Start), which includes needs identification, exploration social networks components problem solving self-management, was designed improve quality life by addressing increasing participation.A multicentre, cluster randomised...
Introduction: Despite widespread recognition that communicating unexpected news during obstetric ultrasound examinations is challenging, there a dearth of research investigating how to teach evidence-based communication sonographers. Communication Coaching supportive, positive method has previously been associated with improvements in communication, patient satisfaction, and reduced burnout clinicians. However, date, no study coached This explored stakeholders’ views on proposed intervention...
Obstetric ultrasound scans provide real-time results. In some organisations and countries, the immediate communication of results by sonographers to patients is standard practice, but there a lack evidence-based training support them with this challenging task. This pilot study evaluated novel coaching intervention improve sonographer communication.Coaches met sonographers(N = 15) three times. Sonographers collected audio recordings involving unexpected news at baseline(R1), post-Session...
Whilst pathways relating to the early stages of stroke care have become well established, strategies for longer-term are less developed and outcomes remain poor many survivors. New Start, a complex intervention that includes needs identification, exploration social networks components problem-solving self-management, was designed improve survivors’ quality life by addressing unmet increasing participation. It is delivered approximately 6 months post-stroke trained staff (facilitators). We...
Background It is reported that the longer-term outcomes for stroke survivors are poor, with a range of unmet needs identified. Objectives The aims were to develop and test care strategy focused on improving quality life their carers by addressing needs, maintenance enhancement participation (i.e. involvement in situations). Design Five overlapping workstreams undertaken – (1) refinement content semistructured interviews review literature inform delivery strategy; (2) exploration service...
Abstract Background To address the limited provision of longer-term stroke care, we conducted a programme research (LoTS2Care) to develop and test an intervention form part replicable care strategy. New Start, facilitated self-management, was developed be delivered at 6 months post-stroke by trained facilitators. Here, report findings from final workstream this programme, which aimed evaluate feasibility acceptability implementing future definitive cluster randomised controlled trial (New...
Introduction: Sonographers are required to deliver unexpected news expectant parents in real time during obstetric ultrasound scans. The complexity of these interactions requires sonographers conduct the clinical task while communicating their findings and managing parent’s response within designated appointment time. Communication coaching for (CCS) is a tailored intervention that has previously been associated with improvements confidence delivery practice. current study explored views...
