Development of a French Assessment Tool Using the Delphi Consensus Method","authors":"Yves-Marie Vincent,&nbsp;Alienor Daron,&nbsp;Luke Harper,&nbsp;Jean-Philippe Joseph,&nbsp;Anik Giguere,&nbsp;François Blot,&nbsp;Nora Moumjid","doi":"10.1155/hsc/5529258","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1155/hsc/5529258","url":null,"abstract":"<div>\u0000 <p><b>Background:</b> Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a prime component of medical practice. EBM often translate into clinical practice guidelines (CPG) widely used by healthcare providers. However, CPGs are often focused on a specific pathology, and they rarely make a room for shared decision-making (SDM) another key dimension, centered on the information exchange between the physician and the patient, the deliberation/discussion, and the decision made based on a common agreement. An assessment tool is therefore needed to determine whether the structure of CPGs allows or not the integration of SDM.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Objectives:</b> To develop an assessment tool in French that could quantify the degree to which CPG facilitate SDM by translating and adapting the elements developed in international consensus studies.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Method:</b> A Delphi consensus method including seven experts selected from the leading scientific community on the topic. Consensus was considered to have been reached when the approval rate reached 70%.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Results:</b> A consensus for the adaptation, relevance, and adjustment of 19 strategies was reached after three rounds. Based on these strategies, 17 criteria were developed. They include general strategies such as adding a specific chapter on SDM, using wording that makes patient involvement explicit, presenting outcomes, benefits and harms of all options including “doing nothing,” and recommendation-specific strategies such as giving to the patient a copy of his/her personalized treatment plan, recommending which patient decision aid could be used and when, or encouraging the patient to exchange with close relatives and friends for the discussion.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Conclusion:</b> We developed a 17-item tool to assess whether or not a CPG facilitates sustainable development. This tool will have to be tested to ensure that it is easy to use, relevant and reproducible, and thus meets the expected quality criteria. Such a tool would enable researchers and patients alike to assess CPGs using a common benchmark, would support national and international benchmarking processes, and provide a starting point for future improvement. Translations into other languages could broaden the scope of use.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/hsc/5529258","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142861206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims to delve into the profound impact of doctor–patient trust on the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system. Additionally, it formulates corresponding policy suggestions for reforming this system from a practical perspective, offering a useful reference for the development of both the theory and practice of China’s healthcare protections.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Methods:</b> In this paper, the rank-dependent expected utility theory was used to construct a tripartite evolutionary game model of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system for observing the interactions and behaviors between superior hospitals, primary hospitals, and patients under different levels of doctor–patient trust. Meanwhile, descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression methods were used in empirical research for revealing the specific mechanism.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Results:</b> When the doctor–patient trust is at a high level, it is easier for each participant in the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system to choose cooperative strategies, thus enabling the system to operate smoothly.

The study is part of a broader project that investigates how these older adults and their caregivers use or do not use municipal health and care services. We conducted qualitative in-depth interviews with 11 family caregivers in rural municipalities. The thematic analysis of the interview data yielded three main themes: Delaying the transition to long-term care amid evolving needs, facilitating knowledge transition, and navigating divergent expectations about involvement. In addition, a fourth theme, caregiving in the rural Arctic, was identified as cross-cutting, reflecting the unique rural Arctic context that was a backdrop across all themes. In navigating the caregiving journey, family caregivers assume various roles within care convoys. They may act as solitary vessels, as an integral part of a larger care convoy, or as the main ship guiding the convoy. At times, family caregivers serve as vessels called upon by the convoy when needed. Difficulties in assembling an adequate or robust care convoy were exacerbated by the context of the Artic North, which represents treacherous waters for the convoy to navigate, primarily due to two factors: first, many of the smaller ships (other family members) were not present or had to travel great distances to join the convoy and second, the lengthy journeys (long travel distances), and particularly in the winter time, made the convoys susceptible to loosing ships along the way.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/hsc/5328128","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142860598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In May-June 2022, 435 adults residing in Campania (Italy) joined a survey assessing variables of interest.

Increasing awareness of overprescribing and the risks of polypharmacy are a key driver of patient-centred preventative approaches to healthcare. One such approach, increasingly common in the United Kingdom, is social prescribing (SP). GPs have a central role in prescribing medication or referring to a social prescription. Following a thematic analysis of data from interviews with 12 GPs, this study used the concept of mindlines to frame a consideration of their reasoning about the appropriateness of social prescriptions as adjuncts to or alternatives for medical prescriptions. We identified seven considerations that shaped their decision-making process. These factors spanned the patient’s socioeconomic circumstances, the severity of their symptoms and their expectations. Additionally, GPs factored in their time constraints, the extent to which medical options had been exhausted, and finally issues related to the SP system itself—specifically, the integration of SP workflows in GP practices and resource constraints. SP is, in theory at least, a part of the healthcare system that offers the possibility of improved health both for people and the environment. Our consideration of the role of the GP in this suggests that the challenges for design and evaluation of SP interventions that result in a reduction in medical prescriptions are considerable.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/hsc/7964343","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142758092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
