Abstract Background Although the importance of context in implementation science is not disputed, knowledge about actual impact external variables on processes remains rather fragmented. Current frameworks, models, and studies merely describe macro-level barriers facilitators, without acknowledging their dynamic character how they steer implementation. Including organizational theories frameworks could be a way tackling this problem. In study, we therefore investigate can contribute to our...
Abstract Background To support self-management of chronically ill persons, innovative approaches care practice are being developed. Unfortunately, many supporting interventions struggle to achieve reliable and consistent improvements at various levels (patient, provider healthcare system level). One possible strategy facilitate translating theory into practice, is consider the professionals’ perspective prior development new interventions. An exploration their knowledge opinion about...
In times of COVID-19, we are challenged to experiment with alternative platforms or software connect people. particular, the struggle that arose in health research was how interact patients and care professionals. The latter is additionally faced an extreme workload fight pandemic crisis. Creative strategies have been developed continue among professionals improve quality care. This paper addresses issue synchronous, online, nominal group sessions, a common consensus method used for...
Coping with a chronic disease can be really challenging. Self-management represents promising strategy to improve daily life experiences. The role of primary healthcare professionals cannot underestimated in supporting self-management. Due shortage theory, implementation self-management support is hindered care practice. aim this study create conceptual model for by analysing patients' experiences towards support.An explorative-descriptive qualitative was conducted Flanders, Belgium....
Background: In 2005, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) released guidance on pharmacokinetic studies in patients with hepatic impairment. This describes design of these and what information should be presented Summary Product Characteristics (SmPC). We aim to evaluate availability clinical applicability medicine use impairment SmPCs registrational dossiers recently approved medicines. Methods: reviewed SmPC 51 new medicines authorized between 2015 2017. Per medicine, we assessed nine items...
Gaining insight in how people living with chronic conditions experience primary healthcare within their informal network.The system is challenged by the increasing number of conditions. To strengthen care management, literature and policy plans point to a person-centred approach (PCC). A first step identify an appropriate strategy implement PCC gain more into experiences these caregivers.A phenomenological-hermeneutical philosophy used.

Abstract Background To address the many challenges health systems and communities face, primary care is constantly searching for new strategies to improve quality of care. One focus on patients’ personal goals direct process. adopt an explicit goals, actions at different levels are required. As a first step in this process, study aims explore experiences stakeholders (i.e., scholars, providers, policy makers) develop comprehensive understanding idea ‘putting first’. This will help formulate...
Abstract Background Self-management of a chronic condition is complex but increasingly important issue. However, supportive attitude and behaviour among healthcare professionals hampered by lack awareness, knowledge motivation. In addition, the role in supporting self-management seems unclear. Methods A blended learning program for primary was developed to strengthen support care. The piloted community health centres multidisciplinary medical practices Flanders. Using Kirkpatrick model,...
The inflammatory stress has been associated with an increase in susceptibility to idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI). However, the molecular mechanisms of this inflammation-associated drug hepatotoxicity remain unknown. We exposed HepG2 cells high and low doses three (I) non-idiosyncratic (N) compounds, presence (I+ N+) or absence (I- N-) a cytokine mix for 6, 12 24 h. To investigate genome-wide expression patterns, microarray was performed using Agilent 4×44K Whole Human Genome...

The policy shift towards person-centred integrated primary care systems drives interest in across higher education programs. In Flanders, the Primary Care Academy (PCA) is established to support this shift. PCA focusses on concepts of goal-oriented care, self-management, and interprofessional collaboration integrate them curricula order strengthen develop a futureproof health system. Therefore, aim study if how lecturers implement these curriculum what they need for successful...

Introduction: Primary care is in constant transformation to optimize integrated delivery according the increase of people with multiple and long-term needs. One suggested strategies person centered (PC-IC). PC-IC has an explicit focus on patients’ personal goals. This should reorient from disease oriented quality indicators outcomes that matter people. To get this patients goals implemented throughout system, actions practice, research, education policy are required.
