[PMID: 38839380 PMCID: PMC11163658 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2023-079830] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic disease self-management (CDSM) is a vital component of congestive heart failure (CHF) programmes. Recent CHF guidelines have downgraded CDSM programmes citing a lack of gold-standard evidence. This protocol describes the aims and methods of a systematic review to collate and synthesise the published research evidence to determine the effectiveness of CDSM programmes and interventions for patients treated for CHF. METHODS Medline, PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PsycINFO, SCOPUS, Web of Science, the Science Citation Index and registers of clinical trials will be searched from 1966 to 2024. In addition, the reference lists of shortlisted articles will be reviewed. Randomised controlled trials, with case management interventions of CDSM and CHF with reported major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), will be extracted and analysed. There is no restriction on language. Study protocol template developed from Cochrane Collaboration and Reporting adheres to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocol guidelines for systematic review and meta-analyses 2020. Two independent authors will apply inclusions and exclusion criteria to limit article search and assess bias and certainty of evidence rating. Data extraction and study description of included studies will include quality appraisal of studies and quantitative synthesis of data will then be undertaken to ascertain evidence for the study aims. Subgroup analyses will be conducted for different CDSM programmes. The primary outcome will be a significant change in MACE parameters between intervention and control arms. Meta-analysis will be conducted using statistical software, if feasible. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethics approval is not sought as the study is not collecting primary patient data. The results of this study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed scientific journals and also presented to audiences through meetings and scientific conferences. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42023431539.

Wientzek R, Brückner RM, Schönenberg A, Prell T. Instruments for measuring self-management and self-care in geriatric patients - a scoping review. Front Public Health 2023; 11:1284350. [PMID: 38192561 PMCID: PMC10773718 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1284350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction With demographic changes, prioritizing effective care for geriatric patients to maintain functionality, independence, and quality of life is crucial. Well-developed self-management or self-care abilities, which can be maintained and improved through interventions, are of the utmost importance. To implement these interventions tailored and effectively, a thorough assessment of the individual's self-management and self-care abilities is required. Objective This scoping review aimed to identify self-management and self-care instruments suitable for geriatric patients, their underlying theories and definitions of self-management and self-care, and their similarities and differences in item content. Methods A systematic search of the PubMed and CINAHL databases was conducted to identify retrievable full-text articles published in English in the medical and nursing fields since the 1970s, which were validated on a sample with an average age of at least 70 years, used generic rather than disease-specific items, and addressed the broad range of self-management and self-care abilities. Results Of the 20 included articles, six instruments were identified that were based on different theories and offered varying definitions of self-management or self-care. Despite these differences, all emphasize empowered individuals taking an active role in their care. Most address actual behavior and abilities referring to lifestyle factors and (anticipated) adjustment behavior. However, crucial aspects, such as psychological factors, (instrumental) activities of daily living, and social environment are not fully addressed in these instruments, nor are the types of execution to which the items refer, such as wants, feelings, confidence, or attitudes. Conclusion To fully understand how geriatric patients implement daily self-management or self-care, a combination of instruments covering the important factors of self-management and self-care and addressing multiple types of item execution, such as behaviors, abilities, wants, or attitudes, is recommended. This review provides the first comprehensive overview of self-management and self-care instruments suitable for geriatric patients.

Placing patient-reported outcomes at the centre of cardiovascular clinical practice: implications for quality of care and management. Eur Heart J 2023; 44:3405-3422. [PMID: 37606064 DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehad514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) provide important insights into patients' own perspectives about their health and medical condition, and there is evidence that their use can lead to improvements in the quality of care and to better-informed clinical decisions. Their application in cardiovascular populations has grown over the past decades. This statement describes what PROs are, and it provides an inventory of disease-specific and domain-specific PROs that have been developed for cardiovascular populations. International standards and quality indices have been published, which can guide the selection of PROs for clinical practice and in clinical trials and research; patients as well as experts in psychometrics should be involved in choosing which are most appropriate. Collaborations are needed to define criteria for using PROs to guide regulatory decisions, and the utility of PROs for comparing and monitoring the quality of care and for allocating resources should be evaluated. New sources for recording PROs include wearable digital health devices, medical registries, and electronic health record. Advice is given for the optimal use of PROs in shared clinical decision-making in cardiovascular medicine, and concerning future directions for their wider application.
