Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to measure the impact of musculoskeletal (MSK) complaints on the quality of life and general health of MSK Patients attending MSK triage clinics. The investigators will also record the proposed management options for patients' complaints. This will be achieved by asking patients to complete questionnaires (MSK HQ) at musculoskeletal triage clinic appointment, by undertaking a clinical assessment, by recording the proposed management plan and assessing if patients have follow up appointments for the same complaint in the following year. The investigators will also measure patient satisfaction using VSQ 9 Questionnaire. After a year the investigators will repeat the MSK HQ to assess the longterm impact of MSK Triage appointment on the MSK complaint.

Clinical Trial Description

At present there is no data available to describe the impact of musculoskeletal (MSK) disease on the Quality of life and General Health for patients attending Rheumatology MSK triage clinics in SUH and OHLM or in similar service around Ireland. A new questionnaire (MSK HQ) has been developed which has been validated in use with this population. This will be completed by the patient on the day of the appointment and again a year later. Their number of visits to secondary care in the year after their visit will also be captured and analysed. This information will inform the health service of the outcomes of these patients and the impact of their MSK disease on the health service. It will also help with resource allocation and planning for future services, which will ensure the best service for these patients in the future. Alongside this, Patient satisfaction and feedback is vital to ensuring service quality and quality improvement. The VSQ 9 will be used to measure Patient Satisfaction in this study to evaluate if patients are satisfied with the service they have received on the day. The repeated MSK HQ will help identify if their triage clinic appointment was beneficial to their Quality of life. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
