Young people with mental ill-health experience higher rates of high-risk sexual behaviour, have poorer sexual health outcomes, and lower satisfaction with their sexual wellbeing compared to their peer...
We followed the 2022 Medical Research Council (MRC) guidelines for developing and evaluating complex interventions. This involved synthesising evidence from the 'top down' (published evidence) and 'bo...
Existing evidence in the field of sexual health in youth mental health was limited but suggested the need to address sexual wellbeing as a concept broader than an absence of negative health outcomes. ...
Using the MRC Framework has guided the co-design of a potentially promising intervention that addresses the sexual health needs of young people with mental ill-health. The next step is to test the int...
Neglect of vaccination needs among adults results in a needless burden of hospitalization, suffering, and death. America's community pharmacists deliver a substantial portion of adult vaccinations, ye...
This study evaluated rates of vaccine contraindications, acceptance, and willingness to be vaccinated among ambulatory adults....
This was a prospective, multisite, multistate, observational study conducted in three waves between October 2021 and August 2023. Pharmacists conducted comprehensive vaccination need assessments. The ...
Pharmacists identified a mean of 1.8 to 2.2 unmet vaccination needs per adult assessed, more than in pilot studies. Participants had already received 61% to 74% of vaccinations recommended for them, h...
This study provides insight into adult vaccine acceptance, willingness, and declination behaviors not described elsewhere. Offering options for future vaccination reduced declination rates....
Pharmacists resolved substantial proportions of adult vaccination needs. The signal that apportioning adult vaccines needed, but not received on day of assessment, across several months could help res...
Acute pancreatitis is a major disease that endangers the health and lives of people. Historically, clinical therapy has recommended that patients with acute pancreatitis remain nil by mouth. As one of...
This evidence implementation project aimed to increase compliance with best practice recommendations for early enteral nutrition support, while standardizing the enteral nutrition support process and ...
The project was guided by the JBI Evidence Implementation Framework, which is grounded in the audit and feedback process, as well as a seven-stage structured approach to identifying and managing barri...
In the baseline audit, compliance rates were low for all evidence-based audit criteria. Four of the eight criteria showed 0% compliance. However, after implementation, all eight criteria achieved a mi...
This project not only significantly improved early enteral nutrition support for acute pancreatitis patients, but also increased nurses' knowledge and practice skills, standardized the process of ente...
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates are still below the target due to vaccine refusal or delay, lack of knowledge, and logistical challenges. Understanding these barriers is crucial for devel...
This cross-sectional study used a questionnaire to investigate social and behavioral factors influencing decision making about the HPV vaccine. The survey was conducted from 11 April to 29 May 2022 an...
3160 participants were surveyed about themselves, while 1266 respondents were surveyed about their children's vaccine uptake. Among females aged ≥ 26 years, the national average HPV vaccine uptake was...
The OBVIOUS study in Italy reveals factors influencing low HPV vaccine uptake, suggesting targeted approaches, tailored information campaigns, heightened awareness of eligibility, promoting early vacc...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a major health problem, and the overall survival rate is low (4.6%-16.4%). The initiation of the current chain of survival depends on the presence of a witness of the...
Within the 'Beating Cardiac Arrest' project, we aim to develop a demonstrator product that detects out-of-hospital cardiac arrest using photoplethysmography and accelerometer analysis, and autonomousl...
Primary care is integral to the health system and population health. Primary care research is still in development and most academic departments lack effective research investments. High impact primar...
A descriptive qualitative project with key informants from research programs in primary care. Participants included international research leaders in primary care (n = 10), department of family and co...
At the micro level despite barriers with respect to funding, protected time and lack of formal mentorship, personal motivation was a key factor. At the meso level, the organizational structure that pr...
The alignment/complementarity of micro, meso, and macro level factors influenced the creation of a high impact research department in primary care. High impact research in primary care is facilitated ...
Polypharmacy is a growing phenomenon among elderly individuals. However, there is little information about the frequency of polypharmacy among the elderly population treated in emergency departments (...
A retrospective analysis of the Emergency Department Elderly in Needs (EDEN) project's cohort was performed. This registry included all elderly patients who attended 52 Spanish EDs for any condition. ...
