Beyond Research Priorities

The cover image is based on the article What Matters Most: The Top 10 Child and Adolescent Cancer Research Priorities in Australia by Joanne Cummings et al., https://doi.org/10.1111/hex.70689.
What Matters Most
BACKGROUND: Children and adolescents diagnosed with cancer and their families have unique medical and psychosocial needs. Addressing these requires research centred on issues most relevant to them. Currently, Australia lacks a research agenda grounded in lived experience and clinical expertise to guide inquiry into child and adolescent cancer. OBJECTIVE: To identify the top 10 research priorities for child and adolescent cancer in Australia. METH…
The Use of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Paediatric Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant
Background/Objectives: Children and adolescents undergoing Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) experience complex symptoms, often under-reported by patients and undetected by clinicians, which cause distress. Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) offer a way to capture symptom experiences directly from patients, with the potential of supporting effective symptom assessment and management, yet their routine use in paediatric HSCT r…
Making Symptoms Visible
Background/Objectives: Children undergoing cancer treatment experience multiple distressing symptoms that often go undetected in routine care. This study evaluated the potential impact of integrating the Symptom Screening in Pediatrics Tool (SSPedi) into clinical workflows, focusing on symptom detection and implications for service delivery. Methods: Seventy children (aged 4-18 years) receiving active treatment, and/or their caregivers completed …
Co-Designing a National Family Handbook for Childhood Brain Tumor
The use of self-efficacy theory and co-design was pivotal in this project. Integration of concepts from self-efficacy moves beyond simply presenting information to empowering the audience to feel capable of the task ahead of them. Co-design ensured the content and tone of the resulting resource are fit-for-purpose from the perspective of both clinicians and consumers. The resource is available as a physical book, digital resource, and audiobook a…
Preparing for Death While Investing in Life
Paediatric palliative care is pivotal for addressing the complex needs of children with incurable diseases and their families. While home-based care offers a familiar and supportive environment, delivering comprehensive services in this context is challenging. The existing literature on home-based palliative care lacks detailed guidance for its organization and implementation. This qualitative narrative inquiry explores the organization and provi…

Integrated Methods for Applying Critical Race Theory to Qualitative Covid-19 Equity Research
These novel approaches provide an effective model for community-engaged qualitative research during a pandemic
Attending to child agency in paediatric palliative care consultations
Children's agency in their own lives is increasingly recognised as important, including within paediatric health care. The issue of acknowledging child agency is complex in the context of paediatric palliative care, where children have serious and complex conditions that often impact their ability to verbally communicate with others. This study explores how clinicians and parents/guardians direct talk towards a child patient when they are present…
Integrating Patient Reported Outcomes with digital solutions to empower children and families to self-manage complex health conditions
The International Journal of Integrated Care (IJIC) is an online, open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles in the field of integrated care on a continuous basis.IJIC has an Impact Factor of 5.120 (2020 JCR, received in June 2021)The IJIC 20th Anniversary Issue was published in 2021
The Experiences and Healthcare Needs of Families Living With Pediatric Brain Tumor
For most children and adolescents diagnosed with a brain tumor, whether malignant or not, there will be an irrevocably negative impact on their life and that of their family. In Australia, 5 year disease-free survival is 76% meaning that many young people will go on to live with the negative consequences-including neurological and cognitive deficits, reduced school performance, psychological problems, and problems with peer social relationships-o…
Transition of Care
This presentation describes the stakeholder engagement process of the Transition of Care: GP and Community Supports after Cancer Treatment project being undertaken by Queensland Youth Cancer Service.Each year ~1,000 Australians aged 15-25 years are diagnosed with cancer, and around 115 will die from the illness.1 Young people with cancer experience complex needs during a significant developmental and transitional period. Survivorship may mean lif…
