Filter by:This study was planned in a quasi-experimental design, focusing on the feasibility, evaluation, and implementation of patient handover between nurses, and the effect of interventions to increase their effectiveness on the patient's satisfaction with care, trust in the nurse, and the quality of nurses' patient handover.The main question it aims to answer is: Does the intervention implemented in nurses' patient handover increase patients' satisfaction with care, its effect on their trust in nurses, and the quality of nurses' patient handover?
The goal of this feasibility trial is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of implementing a brief evidence-based psychotherapeutic intervention, Managing Cancer And Living Meaningfully (CALM), at the time of a new diagnosis and recurrence of ovarian cancer (OC). The main questions are: 1. Is it feasible and acceptable to implement CALM for patients with newly diagnosed or recently recurred advanced OC 2. What are the prevalence and correlates of traumatic stress symptoms at baseline in patients with newly diagnosed or recently recurred advanced OC Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires at baseline and at 3 and 6 months following a diagnosis or recurrence of stage III or IV OC. Participants will also be invited to participate in 3-6 sessions of CALM therapy.
This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to examine the effects of virtual reality video on anxiety, comfort and patient satisfaction before coronary angiography. Data will be collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Early Postoperative Comfort Scale, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for patient satisfaction and pain, Vital Signs Follow-up Form and Complication Follow-up Form.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the prevalence of radiographic knee osteoarthritis and to report medium and long term functional outcomes secondary to tibia plateau fractures. The second aim was to investigate whether there were any risk factors associated with these outcomes.
The goal of this survey and interview study is to learn about patient experience consenting for permanent contraception using the Medicaid Title XIX Sterilization Consent form. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To explore patient perspectives on and understanding of the current consenting process for obtaining permanent contraception as it relates to the Medicaid Title XIX Sterilization consent form. - To explore patient experience with the current consenting process, and thoughts regarding the ideal consenting process including how it would differ from the one currently in place, if at all. Participants will complete a 10-15 minute survey and be offered participation in an in-depth one-on-one interview.
This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the clinical outcomes of bioabsorbable screws to conventional metal screws in pediatric patients (aged 0 to 18) undergoing surgical fixation for trauma or elective procedures. Conducted by the pediatric orthopedic department at Children's Hospital New Orleans, the study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these screws in bone healing over key post-operative intervals (6 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year). It seeks to determine if bioabsorbable screws offer significant advantages over metal screws in terms of reducing the need for secondary surgeries, based on their hypothesized noninferiority in complication rates. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either bioabsorbable or metal (titanium or stainless steel) screws after obtaining informed consent from a parent or guardian.
The aim of this study is to develop a highly realistic 3D-printed Port-A catheter upper body model to improve the knowledge and self-care skills of patients and primary caregivers regarding Port-A catheter placement through patient education.
This study will utilize a quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test design and will be conducted on the medical and medical/surgical units at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System. Hospitalized patients on the intervention units will be offered the Inpatient Whole Health Bundle. This study will evaluate overall satisfaction with the hospital environment and care as well as the bundle and components using a mailed survey of patients discharged from each unit. This study will also conduct a qualitative assessment of the intervention to understand intervention experiences as well as barriers and facilitators to improving hospitalized patient well-being. Finally, the study will assess unit-level metrics.
In East Asian populations, the combination of an epicanthic fold and mono-eyelid is one of their anatomical characteristics. Misalignment of the orbicularis oculi muscle and fibrous connections leads to longitudinal tension, forming the epicanthic fold. The epicanthic fold may diminish the aesthetic effects of eyelid cosmetic surgery, shorten the horizontal length, and affect the postoperative shape of double eyelids. As upper eyelid cosmetic surgery is one of the most common cosmetic procedures in Asia, there is increasing attention on the modification of the epicanthic fold and its impact on the formation of double eyelids.
THE PROBLEM: Patient Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) ask patients about their healthcare service experience. It gives them a voice to share their views. PREMs allow healthcare providers (HCPs) to see where care is good, and where they could improve. Vascular surgery is a surgical speciality looking after people's blood vessels (arteries and veins). There is no PREM available for vascular patients. The research team want to create a PREM for this patient group. WHY IT IS IMPORTANT: A PREM allows HCPs to record and understand patients' experiences of their treatment. It gives patients a way to provide feedback on their healthcare experience. PREMs can help HCPs make changes to patients' care, identifying areas of good practice and areas for improvement. The Welsh Government is keen to support the use of PREMs. AIMS: To develop a PREM specific to vascular surgery patients. RESEARCH PLAN: The research team will summarise the literature about PREMs in surgery. The research team will then run focus groups and interviews with patients and staff to create a 'draft' PREM for vascular patients in Wales. The 'draft' PREM will be translated into Welsh. In the second phase, a larger number of vascular patients (100-300 depending on how long the 'draft' PREM is) from hospitals across Wales will complete the questionnaire. Statistical tests will look at the results to see if the questionnaire works well to capture patients' experiences. Based on these results, small changes will be made to make the 'draft' PREM better. This will make sure the 'final PREM' is ready for widespread use in Wales and beyond. PATIENT AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT: The patients' experience team at CAVUHB has reviewed our patients' materials. Our research team includes PPI co-applicants (DC and AH). DC a double amputee who has had many vascular operations. DC has experience raising awareness about vascular disease through public forums like the Limbless Association Charity and BBC Radio Wales. AH has issues with her leg due to smoking and had a keyhole operation to help with that. She had some problems after the procedure This is her first time as a PPI representative. DC and AH supported our research design and will be steering group members. Also, our research focuses on giving patients a voice and will include patients across Wales. A diverse group of patients will be involved across all stages of the PREM development.
