End of life care, ICU framework
This document describes a study that evaluated a new framework for end-of-life care and withdrawal of treatment on an intensive care unit. Staff completed questionnaires before and after the introduction of the framework to assess changes in knowledge, quality of care, and satisfaction. Results showed improvements in staff knowledge, increased confidence that patients' comfort needs were being met, and greater satisfaction with end-of-life care processes after implementing the framework. The study concludes the framework was associated with enhanced end-of-life care delivery and communication on the ICU.

The document discusses improving the timeliness and quality of discharge summaries dictated by internal medicine residents. It describes challenges with current discharge summaries and studies showing delays in availability and poor quality can contribute to adverse events. An educational intervention was instituted along with a same-day discharge process, which improved the timeliness of discharge summaries without compromising quality. Preliminary results also showed the educational intervention improved completeness scores of discharge summaries, though not statistically significantly, and did not affect readability.

This report outlines a rigorous, multidimensional framework for evaluating quality and outcomes in psycho-oncology services, which can be flexibly adapted to local needs and priorities.
It aims to challenge psycho-oncology services to develop and standardise procedures that address the clinical and operational aspects of quality, while maintaining a firm focus on the experiential.
The proposed framework focuses on six key domains of service quality:
- Is this service safe?
- Is this service equitable, while also focused on those most in need?
- Is this service timely and responsive?
- Is this service respectful, collaborative and patient-centred?
- Is this service offering effective interventions?
- Is this service contributing to efficient multidisciplinary care?
To address these domains, psycho-oncology services need to draw on multiple, convergent sources of data, including key performance indicators, activity levels, patient self-report measures, feedback from professional colleagues, etc.

The document summarizes the Winterbourne Medicines Programme, which was established to investigate concerns about the overuse of antipsychotic and antidepressant medications for people with learning disabilities. Six NHS foundation trusts partnered with NHS Improving Quality to better understand current medication practices and test improvements over six months. The program aimed to ensure medications are used safely and appropriately for this patient population.
Clinical Decision Making
The document discusses clinical decision making in evaluating and treating patients. It involves gathering subjective and objective data from patients, determining appropriate goals and treatment plans based on evaluation findings and clinical judgment, monitoring patient progress, and determining discharge. Treatment plans are adjusted based on a patient's response. Frequent re-evaluations ensure treatment strategies remain appropriate.
Drug utilization evaluation
This document discusses drug utilization evaluation (DUE), which is defined as an ongoing quality improvement process to optimize drug use. It describes the types of DUE as drug-focused, indication-focused, quantitative, and qualitative. The roles of the DUE committee and pharmacists in DUE are also outlined. The key aspects of the DUE cycle are planning, data collection, evaluation, feedback, interventions, and re-evaluation. Common metrics used in DUE like defined daily dose and criteria for conducting the DUE cycle are also summarized.

Medication Reconciliation – time to rethink informatics support ? Trillium II...Trillium Bridge: Reinforcing the Bridges and Scaling up EU/US Cooperation on Patient Summary
Medical Related information reconciliation when a patient sees many providers or transfers between health facilities is challenging. Lack of updated and correct information is a key concern for patient safety during a health and illness trajectory [1]. Errors, near misses and adverse medication events are too common, particularly whne transfers between hospitals, nursing home and home are frequent, or engagement of multiple specialties is common [2]. Lack of effective informatics support can be harmful to a person’s health, leading to suffering, increased use of health care resources and increased costs.
As a case for interactive discussion, we have chosen information exchanges related to medication, prescription-based as well as over the counter drugs. This challenging chain of activities includes: (a) prescribing on paper or electronically by several medical specialists, (b) transcribing by sending and interpreting prescriptions in the pharmacy, (c) dispensing medication by brand name or generic substitution, (d) acquiring over the counter medication, (e) administering medication as a user, and (f) observing effects and side-effects. The risk of missing information leading to mistakes in the chain of activities in medication management is likely to increase as complex medication regimes become common due to demographic developments, co-morbidities or more personalized treatment. Potentials in patient activation and relevant informatics tools for medication reconciliation need further exploration.

This document provides an overview of nursing health assessment. It discusses the four main types of health assessments nurses perform: comprehensive, interval, problem-focused, and those for special populations. It also outlines the key components of a health history and physical exam, including the chief complaint, present health status using PQRST, past health history, lifestyle, psychosocial status, family history, and review of systems. The document reviews the main assessment techniques of inspection, auscultation, palpation, and percussion and provides examples of their use during a physical exam.
Pharmacoeconomics & drug compliance
This document discusses pharmacoeconomics, drug compliance, and therapeutic failure. It begins by defining pharmacoeconomics as the analysis of costs and consequences of pharmaceutical products and services. It then discusses various pharmacoeconomic methods like cost-benefit analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis. The document also explains drug compliance, adherence, and the consequences of non-compliance. It notes that non-compliance can result in therapeutic drug failure and increased costs. It concludes by discussing common interventions to improve compliance like patient education and simplifying drug regimens.
Workcopyfinalproprosal
The document proposes developing an occupational therapy outreach service for elderly patients being discharged from medical assessment wards. Research shows elderly patients are often unprepared for discharge and lack communication between health services. The outreach program aims to facilitate smooth transitions, reduce readmissions, and relieve hospital bed pressures through home-based rehabilitation and empowering patients. Outcomes would be measured through tools like the Barthel Index to evaluate the program's effectiveness.
Patient data analysis
The document outlines the core elements of medication therapy management (MTM) services provided by pharmacists, including: conducting a medication therapy review, developing a personal medication record and medication action plan, making interventions or referrals, and documenting and providing follow-up. The medication therapy review involves collecting patient information, identifying medication-related problems, and creating a care plan. The personal medication record and medication action plan provide customized records for patients. Interventions address issues identified, and referrals are made when needed. Services are documented and follow-up is provided as needed or when care settings change.
Patient adherence – what’s the problem?
This document discusses patient adherence to medical treatment. It begins by noting estimates that 30-50% of medicines for long-term illnesses are not taken as directed, representing a loss for patients and the healthcare system. Common myths about non-adherence are debunked, and it is argued that patients' perceptions of their illness and prescribed treatment strongly influence adherence. Effective interventions should aim to improve the fit between patients' illness beliefs and treatment recommendations by addressing concerns about necessity and potential adverse effects through clear communication and education.

Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

For more information about the polypharmacy programme, please visit https://thehealthinnovationnetwork.co.uk/programmes/medicines/polypharmacy/Patient centered Pharmacovigilance .. .
Patient-centered pharmacovigilance represents a pivotal shift in the landscape of healthcare, emphasizing the active involvement of patients in the monitoring and reporting of adverse drug reactions. Unlike traditional pharmacovigilance, which primarily relies on healthcare professionals to identify and document adverse events, this approach recognizes patients as critical stakeholders in ensuring medication safety. By empowering patients to share their experiences, concerns, and observations regarding medication effects, whether positive or negative, healthcare systems can gain a comprehensive understanding of drug safety and efficacy in real-world settings. Patient-centered pharmacovigilance fosters a collaborative partnership between patients, healthcare providers, and regulatory agencies, promoting transparency, accountability, and ultimately, better patient outcomes. Through increased patient engagement and the utilization of patient-reported data, this approach enables healthcare systems to identify potential safety issues earlier, tailor treatment strategies to individual needs, and enhance overall drug safety surveillance efforts.

Introduction to clinical pharmacy practice
Clinical pharmacy involves optimizing medication use for patients and promoting health. It focuses on applying pharmacists' expertise with pharmaceuticals to directly improve patient care. Historically, clinical pharmacy emerged in response to drug-related issues in the 1960s. A clinical pharmacist's role includes activities like medication management, patient education, and adverse drug reaction monitoring to develop individualized care plans with the healthcare team. The overall goal is to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks of drug therapy for each patient.
Medication Adherence
Medication adherence is defined as a patient conforming to a healthcare provider's recommendations regarding timing, dosage, and frequency of medication. It involves filling prescriptions and refilling on time. Non-adherence can be caused by patient factors like forgetfulness or cost barriers, physician factors like complex regimens, and health system factors like fragmented care. Pharmacists can improve adherence through education on medication purpose, usage, and side effects. Adherence is especially important for chronic conditions and can be monitored through patient assessments.
Clinical pharmacist in TB & Renal Ward
The document discusses the role of a clinical pharmacist in a TB ward and renal ward. In a TB ward, the pharmacist aims to reduce mortality from TB, prevent drug resistance, and ensure accurate monitoring. They also collaborate with private practitioners. In a renal ward, the pharmacist performs medication reconciliation, reviews drug regimens, participates in ward rounds, provides counseling, and ensures proper discharge planning and referral to adherence clinics. For renal patients, the pharmacist runs an adherence clinic and aims to properly manage comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes through coordinated care.

Keynote Address Scott Watkin
Occupational therapists can help people with learning disabilities and their families in several key ways: (1) They should take a person-centered approach and focus on helping individuals achieve life outcomes like employment, housing, health, and social relationships. (2) Therapists should use their skills to assist people with learning disabilities in getting and participating in a full life. (3) It is important that therapists work to include everyone and remember those who are often excluded.
MOHOST XL Sue Parkinson
The document discusses the development of a new screening tool. It describes various professionals collaborating to generate ideas and criteria for personal skills and environmental supports. Draft versions were created and piloted, with feedback indicating it showed strengths and could be useful for therapy and tracking changes. Additional feedback was incorporated and links to occupational therapy theory were explored, with the goal of further development and testing of the screening tool.
Overcoming Difficulties with Waiting List Targets
Waiting list targets were introduced in the UK to improve access to healthcare services but have unintended consequences. Occupational therapists feel the targets limit the scope of their work and focus more on quantity over quality. A data collection tool is being developed to gather evidence on the impact of waiting list targets on occupational therapy services, such as larger caseloads and pressure to accept more referrals regardless of appropriateness. Feedback will be collected on the draft tool to finalize it for use by occupational therapists.
assistive-equip-LLL event-London region-parsons.pp.ppt
1) The document discusses how users feel about the appearance of assistive devices and its impact on their occupational participation and independence.
2) The literature review found that acceptance of assistive devices depends on incorporating them into one's self-image of independence rather than disability, and people feel stigmatized by devices that are very visible as disability aids.
3) More thoughtful design of assistive devices that considers both function and form is likely to lead to greater acceptance and increased occupational participation.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
