Within the context of public health, evidence-informed decision making (EIDM) is the process of finding, distilling and disseminating the best available evidence from research, context and experience, and using that evidence to inform and improve public health practice and policy. It involves assessing the quality of the research evidence you find, applying the best available evidence to your question, problem or issue, and evaluating its impact on practice.
Developed by Health EvidenceTM, the Evidence-Informed Decision Making Checklist helps public health professionals succinctly document how you and/or your team worked through the EIDM process so you can share that information with senior management. Having a Checklist on file can help your organization implement the results of your evidence.
The fillable checklist includes such critical elements as:
•Was a clear answerable search question developed?
•Was a comprehensive search strategy employed to find the best available evidence to address this question?
•Was quality assessment conducted on relevant evidence?
•What were the results of the review of the evidence?

Join Dr. Susan Snelling and Mr. Daniel Fong for a practice-oriented discussion of how public health professionals can adapt information and implement and evaluate policy change.
This webinar draws on the National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools (NCCMT) seven-step process for evidence-informed public health, with a focus on the process by which research evidence can be adapted to local context and then implemented and evaluated.
As an example, the discussion draws on a collaboration between the National Collaborating Centre for Environmental Health (NCCEH) and Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) that aimed to protect vulnerable residents of long-term care facilities (LTCFs) from the adverse health effects of chronic carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. The SHR CO monitoring policy was examined in consultation with stakeholders to promote a health-protective CO management strategy in LTCFs, followed by an evaluation of its implementation and utility in identifying elevated indoor CO.
Finally, experience and knowledge gained from this process was distilled into the Carbon Monoxide (CO) Monitoring and Response Framework and tools were developed for implementing and evaluating the framework in LTCFs across Canada.

ROBIS: A Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Systematic Reviews
ROBIS is a tool designed to assess risk of bias in systematic reviews. ROBIS differs from other tools that assess systematic reviews as it was specifically designed to assess risk of bias, while other tools focus on broader goals such as critical appraisal and quality assessment. The use of ROBIS can lead to more robust recommendations and improvements in public health and patient care.
How can ROBIS help you?
Public health practitioners require evidence to guide their decision making. Systematic reviews are considered the most reliable form of evidence, but they need to be appraised to ensure that results are not biased. ROBIS was designed to assess risk of bias in reviews within health care settings in terms of four main categories: interventions, diagnosis, prognosis and etiology. The target audience for ROBIS also includes anyone interested in assessing risk of bias in systematic reviews such as guideline developers, authors of overviews of systematic reviews and review authors who want to assess and avoid risk of bias in their reviews.

Evaluability assessments in public health
Evaluability assessments are completed before an evaluation and are designed to maximize the chances that a subsequent evaluation will result in useful information. Evaluability assessments point the way to evaluations that have the best chance of revealing important information by facilitating the following:
Shed light on disagreements among stakeholders
Describe the logic of a program
Indicate the need for adjustments in activities and resources
Inform stakeholders about options for evaluation and their potential usefulness
Reveal problems before decision makers commit to a formal evaluation
How can the evaluability assessment method help you?
Evaluability assessments are described as cyclical, iterative processes that build an understanding of the program design, the underlying program logic model or theory of change, and the opportunities for useful evaluation and potential program improvement.
Evaluation is one of the public health competencies and this method helps public health professionals conduct evaluations of programs, policies or practices.

Join Dr. Susan Snelling and Mr. Daniel Fong for a practice-oriented discussion of how public health professionals can adapt information and implement and evaluate policy change.
This webinar draws on the National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools (NCCMT) seven-step process for evidence-informed public health, with a focus on the process by which research evidence can be adapted to local context and then implemented and evaluated.
As an example, the discussion draws on a collaboration between the National Collaborating Centre for Environmental Health (NCCEH) and Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) that aimed to protect vulnerable residents of long-term care facilities (LTCFs) from the adverse health effects of chronic carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. The SHR CO monitoring policy was examined in consultation with stakeholders to promote a health-protective CO management strategy in LTCFs, followed by an evaluation of its implementation and utility in identifying elevated indoor CO.
Finally, experience and knowledge gained from this process was distilled into the Carbon Monoxide (CO) Monitoring and Response Framework and tools were developed for implementing and evaluating the framework in LTCFs across Canada.

ROBIS: A Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Systematic Reviews
ROBIS is a tool designed to assess risk of bias in systematic reviews. ROBIS differs from other tools that assess systematic reviews as it was specifically designed to assess risk of bias, while other tools focus on broader goals such as critical appraisal and quality assessment. The use of ROBIS can lead to more robust recommendations and improvements in public health and patient care.
How can ROBIS help you?
Public health practitioners require evidence to guide their decision making. Systematic reviews are considered the most reliable form of evidence, but they need to be appraised to ensure that results are not biased. ROBIS was designed to assess risk of bias in reviews within health care settings in terms of four main categories: interventions, diagnosis, prognosis and etiology. The target audience for ROBIS also includes anyone interested in assessing risk of bias in systematic reviews such as guideline developers, authors of overviews of systematic reviews and review authors who want to assess and avoid risk of bias in their reviews.

Evaluability assessments in public health
Evaluability assessments are completed before an evaluation and are designed to maximize the chances that a subsequent evaluation will result in useful information. Evaluability assessments point the way to evaluations that have the best chance of revealing important information by facilitating the following:
Shed light on disagreements among stakeholders
Describe the logic of a program
Indicate the need for adjustments in activities and resources
Inform stakeholders about options for evaluation and their potential usefulness
Reveal problems before decision makers commit to a formal evaluation
How can the evaluability assessment method help you?
Evaluability assessments are described as cyclical, iterative processes that build an understanding of the program design, the underlying program logic model or theory of change, and the opportunities for useful evaluation and potential program improvement.
Evaluation is one of the public health competencies and this method helps public health professionals conduct evaluations of programs, policies or practices.

Rapid reviews in public health
As public health organizations across Canada adopt and implement evidence-informed approaches to public health decision-making, there is a need for up to date evidence that can be applied to local contexts. While the most rigorous approach is to find or do a systematic review, timelines and resources often dictate a rapid review of the literature. Rapid reviews are tailored for a shorter timeline, but still use rigorous and transparent methodology to ensure that the best available research evidence is used in decision making.
How can the Rapid Review Guidebook help you?
The NCCMT has developed a Rapid Review Guidebook that details each step in the rapid review process, with notes on how to tailor the process given resource limitations. The Guidebook also includes a guide to writing the final report, with details on how to structure the report and what to include in each section.

Getting to Outcomes®: Promoting accountability through methods and tools for planning, implementation, and evaluation
The Getting to Outcomes® (GTO) approach is based on traditional evaluation methods, empowerment evaluation, results-based accountability and continuous quality improvement. While traditional evaluation methods typically use external evaluators, working at an arm's length from practitioners, empowerment evaluation supports collaborative relationships between evaluators and practitioners. Empowerment evaluation is based on the notion that program success is more likely when evaluators collaborate with practitioners and provide them with the tools and opportunities to plan, implement, evaluate and develop a continuous quality improvement system themselves.
The three key features of the GTO system are as follows:
1. The GTO approach can be used at any stage of program planning, implementation and evaluation.
2. The GTO approach is not linear.
3. The GTO approach promotes cultural competence in programming.
How can the Getting to Outcomes approach help you?
The GTO approach helps practitioners improve the accountability and quality of their programs. This tool will be helpful for program planners, managers and program evaluation specialists. It can be used to assist with program planning, implementation and evaluation phases to inform continuous quality improvement strategies. For instance, tools within this resource could help users refine and shift existing programs to meet the needs of a changing demographic population in diabetes prevention.

Une grande incertitude découle de l’apparition de nouvelles maladies infectieuses comme la COVID-19, ce qui pose des défis uniques en matière de communication, différents d’autres initiatives de communication en santé. Une communication de crise efficace est essentielle à la promotion des comportements de prévention recommandés (comme la distanciation physique, l’hygiène des mains, le port du masque et la vaccination) et au maintien de la confiance durant la crise. Cette séance présentera un survol des meilleures pratiques en matière de communication de crise en santé publique dans les médias sociaux et abordera leur application concrète durant la COVID-19. D’abord, les meilleures pratiques en ce qui a trait à une communication de crise efficace pour démontrer que l’on est digne de confiance seront présentées. Le guide de communication de crise dans les médias sociaux, largement diffusé et téléchargé, offre des conseils pratiques en matière de santé publique. Par la suite, la communication de crise de Santé publique Ottawa dans les médias sociaux durant la COVID-19 sera examinée pour mettre en évidence les leçons tirées et les principales stratégies utilisées par l’équipe. Le compte Twitter de Santé publique Ottawa est le compte d’une autorité locale de santé publique le plus suivi en Amérique du Nord, et l’excellence de son travail dans les médias sociaux tout au long de la pandémie de COVID-19 a été soulignée par des organisations comme l’Agence de la santé publique du Canada, l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé, la Fondation Rockefeller et plusieurs autres.
High levels of uncertainty result from emerging infectious diseases like COVID-19, creating unique communication challenges that are different from other health communication initiatives. Effective crisis communication is essential to promote the recommended prevention behaviors (e.g., physical distancing, hand hygiene, mask-wearing, and vaccination) and to maintain trust during the crisis. The Guidebook for Social Media Crisis Communication has been widely shared and downloaded, providing practical advice for public health. This session will provide an overview of best practices for social media crisis communication for public health and its practical application during COVID-19. First, the best practices for effective crisis communication to demonstrate trustworthiness will be presented. Next, Ottawa Public Health’s social media crisis communication during COVID-19 will be explored to highlight the lessons learned and key strategies the team employs. Ottawa Public Health’s Twitter account is the most-followed local public health account in North America, and their social media work throughout the COVID-19 pandemic has been lauded for its excellence by organizations like the Public Health Agency of Canada, the World Health Organization, the Rockefeller Foundation and many others.
Presenters:
Dr. Melissa MacKay, University of Guelph - Dr. Melissa MacKay is a postdoctoral scholar and Sessional Instructor for the Master of Public Health program at the University of Guelph. Her research focuses on effective health and crisis communication, with a specific focus on social media.
Kevin Parent, Ottawa Public Health - Kevin Parent has been the social media lead for Ottawa Public Health since 2018. He graduated from Carleton University with a major in Communications and a minor in Sociology. Kevin is perpetually tired due to having 3 young children, and he loves coffee for the same reason.
Cette séance présentera un survol d’une revue exploratoire rapide, réalisée en 2022 par le Centre de collaboration nationale des méthodes et outils (CCNMO) en collaboration avec le Centre de collaboration nationale des maladies infectieuses (CCNMI), sur le rôle de la santé publique en partenariat avec des refuges offrant des services aux personnes en situation d’itinérance. La revue fait état d’exemples de collaborations entre la santé publique et des refuges pour offrir des programmes et des services de santé publique, ou pour soutenir le personnel des refuges relativement à des sujets de santé publique. Le CCNMI a utilisé cette revue dans le cadre d’un Institut explorant les possibilités d’améliorer les communications et les programmes afin qu’ils soient utiles aux clients et au personnel des refuges. Joignez-vous à nous pour en apprendre davantage sur les résultats de cette revue exploratoire rapide et pour discuter des moyens d’accroître la collaboration entre la santé publique et les refuges.

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.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Tips for “Adapt”
45
• In developing a local approach, consider:
• Research evidence
• Stakeholder perspectives
• Media coverage – what’s going on in community
• Political context
• Local and regional data reports
• Financial and human resources
• How can you adapt potential interventions to be
appropriate for your community?

Tips for “Evaluate”
Determine how effective you were at using an
evidence-informed approach:
• What process did you follow?
• What can you learn from your process?
• How could you improve your use of evidence?
• How will you know if people are using the
evidence? Have they changed their practice?
• Was the intervention adapted effectively at your
local level?
You may need to gather baseline data before you start
if you want to assess change.

Editor's Notes
EIPH provides a systematic approach to incorporate research evidence in program and policy decisions.
EIPH is defined as the process of distilling and disseminating the best available evidence from research, context and experience, and using that evidence to inform and improve public health policy and practice.
Put simply, it means finding, using and sharing what works in public health.

Where would you go to find resources to help you use research in your work?
Within the Registry of Methods and Tools, we have mapped out which methods and tools could help you with each step of the wheel.
-the Registry is a collection of KT resources which are relevant for public health
=the purpose of the Registry is to make KT resources more accessible
-we do this by:
-by identifying and filtering knowledge translation resources that are relevant to public health, and
-by creating summary statements of those resources to save time for practitioners
-our summary statements contains web-links to methods and tools, in addition to supplemental resources that you may find helpful in using the resource
-here’s a screenshot of the Registry
- visitors can access a number of user stories about how people have used methods and tools in their work, recent updates and new resources which have been added, and browse resources in the Registry
So why is there a distinction between methods and tools? Why is it important that there is a difference?
-methods can help you to organize the approach that you use to accomplish a task through a process or series of steps
-sometimes methods can help you to learn about a particular aspect of KT and how you think about it
-for example, you may want to learn about knowledge management and a method would be a good place to start
-tools provide a way to do a task, whether it is critical appraisal of evidence or adapting evidence to your setting
-tools can include workplans, instruments, checklists, some sort of tangible product
=the value add of having both methods and tools is that you can use both together to accomplish a task – for example, you may access a method on stakeholder engagement to learn why you need to reach out to your stakeholders during your project and what you hope to achieve in doing so
-a tool on stakeholder engagement would help your group identify and document the steps you’ve taken in the process
-the EIPH wheel illustrates the steps involved in evidence-informed practice
-the wheel is a guide for practitioners and decision makers to determine how to address a particular issue by systematically incorporating research evidence in the decision making process
-there are 7 steps in the EIPH process that starts with
clearly defining the problem,
Searching the research literature
Appraising the evidence you find
Synthesizing or summarizing the research on your issue
Adapting and interpreting the findings to your local context
Implementing the evidence or appropriate intervention
Evaluating your implementation efforts.
Or if a qualitative question, Population and Situation (P and S)
I added screening as the interventions since identification on its own is not an intervention. OK?

As noted under syntheses, HE is a good source for systematic reviews of research evidence related to public health
Second is from CRICH- an adaptation with additional health equity content – so might be very relevant for our evidence-informed decisions related to improving health in homeless populations
Determine whether to reduce or drop services currently being offered?
What would this process look like for emerging infections where there is not a lot of research evidence?
