The documented decrease in work participation, elevated levels of pain and dysfunction impeding physical activity, and diminished quality of life align with those observed in individuals with severe hip osteoarthritis. Effectively managing Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome can present considerable challenges. Generally, patients with Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome tend to respond favourably to conservative management. However, regarding the conservative approach of using corticosteroid injections there is still some debate regarding the specific estimation of effect. A recent systematic review by Wang et al. (2022) was undertaken to explore the effect of corticosteroid injection in the treatment of Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome. This commentary seeks to critically assess the methodologies employed in the review conducted by Wang et al. (2022) and provide a broader understanding of the findings in the context of the four pillars of advanced practice; clinical practice, leadership, education and research.","PeriodicalId":520271,"journal":{"name":"International journal for advancing practice","volume":"2 4","pages":"199-202"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7616830/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142668019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There were different views as to whether technology was suitable for older people. Although digital exclusion was a concern, it was perceived that this would change in the future as generations become more digitally literate. Respondents suggested that using technology brought about efficiencies and the ability to respond sooner to symptom changes, with some concerns mentioned regarding the accuracy of technology that may miss signs and symptoms.Conclusion: This is the first national survey to explore advanced practice roles with older people in non-hospital settings. While APs have wide-ranging skills, few currently use technology in their practice. Findings will inform a future study on digitally enhanced comprehensive geriatric assessments.","PeriodicalId":520271,"journal":{"name":"International journal for advancing practice","volume":"2 4","pages":"191-198"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7616759/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142560307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
