This document discusses bridging the gap between evidence and nursing practice. It explains that evidence-based practice is important for nursing to ensure best practices. Various reasons are given for why opinion and experience alone are not sufficient for clinical decision making. The document then outlines some key aspects of evidence-based practice, including using control groups in interventions and ensuring practices are supported by evidence rather than happening by accident. Finally, it provides details on the Evidence Based Council in the UK, including its history and achievements in establishing nursing guidelines and resources to promote evidence-based care.

Home Dialysis RA 2017
This document discusses a proposed national improvement project called KQuIP to increase home dialysis rates across the UK by addressing regional variation. It would establish regional collaboratives to test ideas and share best practices using a three-phase model of discovery, idea development, and testing cycles. Barriers to greater home dialysis use include financial factors, lack of leadership support and expertise, and perceptions of patient suitability. The project aims to standardize training pathways and measurement while respecting patient choice. Clear vision, leadership, organizational culture, and infrastructure support will be key drivers of success.

Getting it Right for Every Child (GIRFEC) is Scotland's framework for public services to coordinate their support for children and families. It requires services like social work, health, education, police, and housing to share information and work together, particularly through earlier intervention. Examples show GIRFEC has led to improved outcomes for children in the Scottish Highlands by changing professional practices and cultures. Services are now more streamlined, staff work better across agencies, and focus is placed on the child's needs rather than bureaucratic outputs. Successful culture change depends on shared vision, leadership, training, and consistent systems for assessment.

Striving for Excellence, Seeking Value, Sparking a Revolution
Some insights from the 19th Annual IHI/BMJ International Forum on Quality and Safety in Healthcare, Paris, 08-11 April 2014:
The theme of this year’s Forum was “Strive for Excellence, Seek Value, [and] Spark a Revolution!” in healthcare. The meeting attracted over 3000 delegates from over 75 countries – and so it was a great opportunity to cross-fertilise ideas and share cutting-edge practices across international boundaries.
Our work from across NHS Education for Scotland attracted much interest and discussion – not only at the NHS Scotland exhibition stand, but also at the workshop presentations and poster sessions.
Internationally, over 200 sessions were presented by leading thinkers in the field; and covered the following streams:
• Patient and family centred care
• Leading effective change
• Improving population and community health
• Improving clinical performance
• Technology and innovation
• Safe and reliable care
One core theme however, appeared to be patient safety stories, and staff & patient experiences.
The ethos was on reflecting on person centred care – really listening to patients and service users, and understanding what really matters to them. In addition, there were deliberations on taking healthcare completely outside the formal healthcare system and in engaging in health every day. Whilst this concept is not new, it resonates with the notion that “prevention is better than cure”.
One keynote in particular presented the power of narrative in compelling action and transformational positive change.
Another presentation focussed on shadowing the patient journey – to review process maps, the voice of patients, family members and staff, and transitions in care. Using this real-time collection of data and narrative, the organisation was able to review the team effort around the patient, to improve services, interactions and processes. The emphasis was on co-designing services with patients through engagement, partnership and in closing any identified gaps to ideal care delivery.
In summary, a key message emanating is how the complementary nature of data and narrative/story will compel action, catalyse improvements, and drive transformative change for excellence in service delivery.

Implementation Network Meeting 14th April
This document summarizes a presentation given at the 21st meeting of the Implementation Network of Ireland and Northern Ireland on April 14, 2021. The presentation focused on lessons learned from implementing Scotland's Early Intervention Framework for children and young people's mental health. Key points included:
- Developing the framework took longer than anticipated due to the need to establish scope/focus and develop consensus among stakeholders.
- The framework includes a searchable database of evidence-based mental health interventions for children and youth, with information on implementation factors.
- A self-assessment tool allows users to evaluate local implementation contexts and compare interventions.
- Considering local context, needs, and resources is important for aligning investments and maximizing impact
Evidence to improve effectiveness
This document discusses the importance of evidence-based practice in nursing. It notes that practices like bloodletting and certain wound treatments are no longer used because evidence does not support their effectiveness. Randomized controlled trials are considered the gold standard for evidence, but such trials are lacking for most medical practices. The document recommends determining if existing data from other study designs can provide useful evidence to guide practices, and clarifying the desired health outcomes, rather than relying solely on past practices not supported by evidence. It provides resources for finding synthesized evidence and promoting integrity in health research publication.

Research into mealtimes and older people with dementia.pptx
This document discusses research into helping older people with dementia during mealtimes. Dementia can cause problems with intelligence, memory, language, wandering, aggression and more. It also discusses the ethical issues around feeding those with dementia. The Edinburgh Feeding Evaluation in Dementia scale is presented as the most widely used and validated measure of feeding difficulty. Several studies testing interventions like music or Montessori-based activities found positive outcomes, though more rigorous research is still needed. Spaced retrieval training was found to reduce mealtime difficulties and promote independence. Creating the right environment, social interactions and individualized care can help prolong eating ability in dementia patients.

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.
