The discourse in healthcare Knowledge Mobilisation (KMb) literature has shifted from simple, linear models of research knowledge production and action to more iterative complex models. These aim blend multiple stakeholders' with address the research-practice gap. It been suggested there is no 'magic bullet', but that a promising approach take co-creation healthcare, particularly if number principles are applied. include systems thinking, positioning as creative enterprise human experience at...
Improving co-design methods implies that we need to understand those methods, paying attention not only the effect of method choices on design outcomes, but also how affect people involved in co-design. In this article, explore participants' experiences from a year-long participatory health service project develop 'Better Outpatient Services for Older People'. The followed defined called experience-based (EBD), which represented state art within UK National Health Service. A sample...
Background: Individuals living with long-term physical health conditions frequently experience co-occurring mental problems. This comorbidity has a significant impact on an individual's levels of emotional distress, outcomes, and associated care utilization. As services struggle to meet demand increasingly moves the community, digital tools are being promoted support patients self-manage their health. One such technology is autonomous virtual agent (chatbot, conversational agent), which uses...
The Rycroft-Malone paper states that co-production relies on 'authentic' collaboration as a context for action. Our commentary supports and extends this assertion. We suggest involves processes where participants can 'see' the difference they have made within project beyond. provide examples including: use of design in health projects which seek to address power issues make contributions visible through iteration prototyping; development 'actionable outputs' from research are physical...
Objectives: Attendance at a specialist multidisciplinary motor neurone disease (MND) clinic is associated with improved survival and may also improve quality of life reduce hospital admissions. However, patients struggle to travel experience difficulties between visits that not be addressed in timely manner. We wanted explore how we could access MND care. Methods: adopted an iterative, user-centered co-design approach, collaborating those providing receiving care including patients, carers,...
Abstract Background Despite growing enthusiasm for co-production in healthcare services and research, research on practices is lacking. Multiple frameworks, guidelines principles are available but little empirical conducted ‘how to do’ of improve services. This paper brings together insights from UK-based collaborative partnerships leading co-production. Its aim inform practical guidance new planning facilitate the applied health future. Methods Using an auto-ethnographic approach,...
Abstract Background High quality data is important to understanding epidemiology and supporting improvement efforts in perinatal brain injury. It not clear which items relevant injury are captured across UK sources of routinely collected data, nor what needs be done ensure that those fit for purpose improving care. Methods We reviewed dictionaries four main consulted a multi-professional group ( N = 27) with expertise neonatal/maternity care, statistics, clinical negligence. Results None the...
The potential of the Internet as a fast and efficient way accessing evidence to support nursing practice has been well recognized. In addition, nurses have highlighted need for training in use information technology, retrieval critical appraisal essential their professional development.The aim this paper is present selected results longitudinal project that evaluated impact networked computers, with open access Internet, on four acute wards large UK teaching hospital.Evaluation methods...
This paper describes the use of Experience Based Design (EBD), a participatory methodology for healthcare service design, to improve outpatient older people at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals. The challenges in moving from stories designing improvements, co-designing wicked problems, and effects participants' limited scopes action are discussed. It concludes by proposing that such problems common design large institutions recommends future versions EBD incorporate more tools promote divergent thinking.
Engaging young people in participatory design can be challenging, particularly health-related projects. In a study co-designing diabetes support and information services with teenagers, we found framing activities using popular culture was useful strategy. Various cultural references helped us stage that were productive for the process, engaging our participants (e.g. exploring practical implications through discussions 'Dragons' Den'). Some more effective than others idea of language-games,...

In the UK outpatient services are a major element of health service for older people and large numbers requested to attend hospital-based clinics. However, it has been reported that clinics have fallen behind improvements in inpatient primary care they seldom focus patient-centred quality agenda promotes personalised care. Significant proportions fail their appointments there few studies into experience patients using services. this paper we report on design-led improvement project involved...

Background: Co-production, co-creation and co-design are increasingly used in healthcare research knowledge mobilisation. These methods have grown popularity the broad range of approaches often without any formal evaluation. The challenges to using these well reported yet there is little evidence on how overcome them or they work. This study evaluates ‘creative co-design’, a design-led, solutions-focused process developed specifically as means mobilise healthcare. Aims objectives: To...
Advances in surgical and medical management have significantly reduced the length of time that patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) to stay hospital, but has left potentially less psychologically adjust. Following a pilot 2012, this project was designed test effect "design thinking" workshops on self-efficacy people undergoing rehabilitation following injuries. Design thinking is about understanding approaches methods designers use then applying these think creatively problems suggest ways...

Many reasons for missed appointments are given by people who inject drugs and it is suggested that one solution cannot solve this complex issue (Poll et al., 2017). Increasingly, nurses other health professionals expected to actively involve patients service users in developing innovative, effective accessible services. This project used co-production as the approach address challenge.
The National Health Service in the UK, like many other public health services worldwide, is facing a number of key challenges. Among them are an ageing population and rising incidence chronic conditions. In this position paper we describe User-Centred Healthcare Design (UCHD) project
Abstract Background Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a common, serious problem predominantly seen in metastatic lung and breast cancer malignant mesothelioma. Recurrence of symptoms significantly impair people’s daily lives. Numerous treatment options exist, yet choosing the most suitable depends on many factors making decisions can be challenging pressured, time-sensitive clinical environments. Clinicians identified need to develop decision support tool. This paper reports process...
The internet is expected to play a key role in delivering evidence-based practice (Department of Health (DoH), 1997, 1998a; Beyea, 2000). In the UK, poor access and lack knowledge confidence have been identified as barriers nurses accessing evidence via internet. study described here aimed evaluate how open an acute ward area had impact upon allied health professionals. was funded by Department Health.
