Impact of the formation of interprofessional teams on systems for healthStefanus Snyman
Opening keynote address by Stefanus Snyman at the 2nd Regional Technical Meeting Interprofessional Education hosted by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) in Brasilia (Brazil) on 5 December 2017
The ICF has potential to improve communication and collaboration (through its universal concepts and language) among health professionals working within multidisciplinary teams in research and practice to impact health outcomes for patients. Thus, it is timely for clinicians and trainees working in health-related fields to incorporate its framework into practice and research. It is hoped that professional programs will model our approach to develop similar courses within their professional curriculum to build capacity for application of the ICF. Education and training through a combination of peer support and mentorship for health professionals in the use of the ICF could assist with facilitating its uptake.

Given the universal concepts and language of the ICF, it is timely for clinicians, educators, researchers and everyone working with youth and adolescents with disabilities and chronic health conditions to incorporate its framework in transition practice and research. The ICF has potential to improve communication and collaboration among health professionals working within multidisciplinary teams to impact adult health outcomes that are meaningful to youth and families. The ICF also encourages a holistic approach to care by focusing on personal and environmental factors beyond health, thus professionals should embrace its theory, framework and applications in practice and research. We present the YouthKIT, a tool that uses concepts of the ICF to address transition needs of adolescents with chronic health conditions.
The ICF concept of health provides perspectives on people’s lives through the lens of functioning. This view of health promotes an integration of a patient’s body functions
and structures, activities performed in daily life, and the personal and social roles that constitute their participation in life situations.
Service providers (health, education, welfare) engaged in the habilitation process have varied disciplinary language, training and culture that all emphasize certain
domains of patient’s functioning over others. However, adoption of the ICF allows that all members of a clinical team are motivated to improve their patient’s functioning
within a common conceptual approach. This can be used to describe the different goals of intervention, negotiate priorities and communicate among different disciplines
and with patients and parents.

The health care system began from the local level and was provided to the general population. Understanding the health care system at the local level is very important while considering the implementation of evidence-based practice because it requires various resources like workforce, financial assistance, and collaboration with other stakeholders. When we implement EBP, it is crucial to have well-trained, skilled health care professionals such as doctors, nurses, and another multidisciplinary team to have an effective result. This is the long run, will assist in promoting the significance of using evidence-based practice. Another critical factor is understanding the culture of the healthcare system for planning and implementing EBP and understanding the leadership of the local health care system. In their study, Klein et al. (2017) discuss how important it was to understand their local healthcare system. The city council of Stockton attempted to combat childhood obesity by forcing restaurants serving children's meals to serve water or low-fat milk as the default beverage rather than soda or chocolate milk. The public health agency also provides financial incentives to neighborhood retailers to sell vegetables from the region's many farms.
For my change project on patient safety, since it involves the transition of care from inpatient to outpatient and partial hospitalization programs, I would consider involving families, local communities, and other healthcare agencies. Because nurses like to get knowledge from their peers and via social contacts, having a core group in conjunction with change champions can aid with practice change implementation. A core group is a small group of practitioners who share the purpose of distributing knowledge about a practice change and assisting other unit members in making the change. Another critical factor to consider is that individuals do not abuse their freedom and violate established boundaries, particularly those that control people's health, safety, and cultural beliefs.

Re: Topic 4 DQ 1
Before implementing any changes locally based on Evidence-Based Practice (EBP), it is essential to consider what resources are available locally. Effective understanding of healthcare system at the local level is essential in planning the implementation of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) model for various reasons. Firstly, the implementation of EBP needs different resources at these levels. These include enough human capital and monetary funding. Skilled human capital is essential since it provides expertise and leadership necessary in implementing EBP (Warren et al., 2016). Implementing EBP requires skilled nurses, physicians, and other he.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
