Abstract Background Accurate assessment of surgical-site infection (SSI) is crucial for surveillance and research. Self-reporting patient measures are needed because current SSI tools limited assessing patients after leaving hospital. The Bluebelle Wound Healing Questionnaire (WHQ) was developed or observer completion; this study tested its acceptability, scale structure, reliability validity in with closed primary wounds abdominal surgery. Methods Patients completed the WHQ...
This interrupted time-series study evaluated the impact of multiprofessional scenario-based training on safety culture and teamwork climate 3 surgical wards during a time reduced financial resources. The authors ran 22 team sessions for teams 4 to 5 medical nursing staff over 4-month period wards, using 2 scenarios based previously successful obstetric program. Safety was measured before after validated psychometric questionnaire. After there statistically significant improvement in (P =...
Abstract Background Designing RCTs in surgery requires consideration of existing evidence, stakeholders' views and emerging interventions, to ensure that research questions are relevant patients, surgeons the health service. When there is uncertainty about RCT design, feasibility work recommended. This study aimed assess how could inform design a future pilot (Bluebelle, HTA - 12/200/04). Methods was prospective survey dressings used cover abdominal wounds. Surgical trainees from 25...
Surgical site infection (SSI) affects up to 20% of people with a primary closed wound after surgery. Wound dressings may reduce SSI. To assess the feasibility multicentre randomised controlled trial (RCT) evaluate effectiveness and cost-effectiveness dressing types or no SSI in surgical wounds. Phase A - semistructured interviews, outcome measure development, practice survey, literature reviews value-of-information analysis. B pilot RCT qualitative research questionnaire validation. Patients...
Multidisciplinary training has improved maternity outcomes when the been well attended, regular, in house, used high-fidelity simulators, and integrated teamwork training. If these principles were other settings, better clinical care may result. This before-after study sought to establish whether a short multidisciplinary intervention can improve recognition of deteriorating patient using an aggregated physiological parameter scoring system (Early Warning Score [EWS]). Nursing, medical,...
The second article in this two-part series analyses the development of an educational audit tool to examine quality learning environment for student nurses undergoing community placement. Deficits existing tools are identified and rationales suggested overcome perceived problems. also discusses issues which emerged during piloting tail its value as instrument.
Many strategies are required in the development of community placement to ensure a learning environment is established which can meet needs students on traditional EN conversion, undergraduate and Project 2000 courses. In this first two articles, process establishing clinical links team discussed. The evaluation an audit tool specifically designed for use within will be discussed second article next week.
