Abstract Background Interprofessional primary care (IPC) teams provide comprehensive and coordinated are ideally equipped to support those populations most at risk of adverse health outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic, including older adults, patients with chronic physical mental conditions. There has been little focus on experiences healthcare no studies have examined IPC practice early phase pandemic. The objective study was describe state interprofessional provider within Methods...
Abstract Background Integrated primary care teams are ideally positioned to support the mental health needs arising during COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding how has affected delivery within settings will be critical inform future policy and practice decisions later phases of pandemic beyond. The objective our study was describe impact on teams’ care. Methods A qualitative using focus groups conducted with in Ontario, Canada. Focus group data analysed thematic analysis. Results We 11 10 a...
Abstract Hypertension is the leading single preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The India Control Initiative (IHCI) project was designed to improve hypertension control in public sector clinics. launched 2018–2019 26 districts across five states: Punjab (5), Madhya Pradesh (3), Kerala (4), Maharashtra and Telangana (10), with core strategies: standard treatment protocol, reliable supply of free antihypertensive drugs, team-based care, patient-centered an information system...
Background: Hypertension treatment coverage is low in India. A stepwise simple protocol one of the strategies to improve hypertension primary care. We estimated effectiveness various steps achieve blood pressure (BP) control public sector health facilities Punjab and Maharashtra, India, where India Control Initiative (IHCI) was implemented. Methods: analyzed records people enrolled for follow-up under IHCI between January 2018 December 2021 secondary care across 23 districts from two states....
More than half of the individuals with hypertension remain undiagnosed in India. The National Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) program has implemented opportunistic screening to improve diagnoses. In public health facilities across 18 districts nine states India, we estimated missed opportunity for detection routine settings. each chosen districts, conducted a cross-sectional study one district hospital (DH), community centre (CHC), and three primary centres (PHCs), selected randomly. We...
Abstract Hypertension control is the crucial indicator for cardiovascular disease programs. We conducted a baseline cross-sectional survey to estimate hypertension awareness, treatment, and in selected districts 2018–19, where India Control Initiative being implemented. surveys nine project 18–69 years age group. The sample size was 624 per district. study population individuals with raised BP/diagnosed HT. estimated proportion 95% confidence intervals (CI) each district’s control. computed...
The India Hypertension Control Initiative (IHCI) emphasizes decentralized patient-centric care to boost hypertension control in public healthcare facilities. We documented the decentralization process, enrolment pattern by facility type, and treatment outcomes nine districts of Punjab Maharashtra states, India, from 2018-2022.
Abstract Daily adherence to antihypertensive medications is necessary control hypertension. Under the State hypertension program, hypertensive patients are enrolled in public health settings, provided with 30‐day medication prescriptions, and advised return facility monthly. However, at least 50‐60% of do not visit for their scheduled follow‐up appointments. The authors aimed document major reasons missed appointments characterize patient system barriers. By telephone, interviewed 300...
The motility of the gastrointestinal tract is generated by smooth muscle cells and controlled to a large extent an intrinsic neural network. A gap approximately 200 nm usually separates nerve varicosities from cells, which suggests that direct innervation synapses does not occur. Enteric nerves do make synapse-like contact with proposed regulatory interstitial Cajal (ICC), in turn may be junction cells. role played ICC enteric controversial. Experimental evidence has been presented vitro for...
Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a rapid shift to virtual care in primary practices around the globe. There been little focus on experiences of interprofessional teams through lens practice leaders. objective this study was examine experience during first wave from perspective leadership. Methods Qualitative using qualitative description methods. Executive Directors belonging Association Family Health Teams Ontario (AFHTO) were invited participate. interviewed and...
This study focuses on the simultaneous plasma treatment of interlayer dielectric (ILD) and chemical mechanical polished (CMP) Cu surfaces using N2/H2 processes. The modifications induced by gas chemistries are investigated for two ILD films with different porosities carbon concentrations. H atoms radicals in react groups leading to removal both films. Fourier transfer infrared (FTIR) spectra show a greater fractional reduction CH3 high porosity compared low ILD. Results indicate that an N2...
Objective The objective of this study was to describe Ontario primary care teams’ experiences with collaboration during the COVID-19 pandemic. Descriptive qualitative methods using focus groups conducted virtually for data collection. Setting Primary teams located in Ontario, Canada. Participants Our 11 10 teams, a total 48 participants reflecting diverse range interprofessional healthcare providers and administrators working care. Results Three themes were identified thematic analysis: (1)...
India is facing a shortage of staff nurses; thus, better understanding nurses' workloads essential for improving and implementing noncommunicable disease (NCD) control strategies. We estimated the proportion time spent by nurses on hypertension other NCD activities in primary care facilities 2 states India.We conducted cross-sectional study 6 purposively selected Punjab Madhya Pradesh during July through September 2021. used standardized stopwatch to collect data direct (measuring blood...
In recent years, significant advances have been made in the management of metastatic colorectal cancer. Traditionally, an improvement overall survival has considered “gold standard”—the most convincing measure efficacy. However, requires larger patient numbers and longer follow-up may often be confounded by other factors, including subsequent therapies crossover. Given number active for potential investigation, demand rapid evaluation early availability new is growing. Progression-free...
Security is always a major concern in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Several trust based routing protocols are designed that play an important role enhancing the performance of network. However they still have some disadvantages like limited energy resources, susceptibility to physical capture, and little protection against various attacks due insecure communication channels. This paper presents secure key management (STKF) framework establishes trustworthy route depending upon present...
