Supporting endocrine therapy adherence in women with breast cancer
BACKGROUND: Adherence to adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET) in women with breast cancer is poor. Multicomponent intervention packages are needed to address adherence barriers. Optimizing these packages prior to definitive evaluation can increase their effectiveness, affordability, scalability, and efficiency. PURPOSE: To pilot procedures for an optimization-randomized controlled trial (O-RCT) of the 'Refining and Optimizing Strategies to support En…
Rapid qualitative analysis in a mixed-methods evaluation of an infection prevention intervention in a UK hospital setting during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic created an urgent need for high-quality rapid research. One clinical challenge was how to minimise the risk of transmission in the hospital setting. The CLEAN study conducted a rapid evaluation of the potential utility of a spray-based disinfectant in a hospital setting. The study was undertaken between December 2020 and March 2021 and involved the implementation of the spray in 10 different clinical areas in one UK teaching…
Guidance on how to develop complex interventions to improve health and healthcare
OBJECTIVE: To provide researchers with guidance on actions to take during intervention development. SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS: Based on a consensus exercise informed by reviews and qualitative interviews, we present key principles and actions for consideration when developing interventions to improve health. These include seeing intervention development as a dynamic iterative process, involving stakeholders, reviewing published research evidence, dra…
Taxonomy of approaches to developing interventions to improve health
BACKGROUND: Interventions need to be developed prior to the feasibility and piloting phase of a study. There are a variety of published approaches to developing interventions, programmes or innovations to improve health. Identifying different types of approach, and synthesising the range of actions taken within this endeavour, can inform future intervention development. METHODS: This study is a systematic methods overview of approaches to interve…
Your whole life is lived through your teeth
The experience and meaning of tooth loss and replacement has varied historically and culturally but has received relatively little attention from social scientists. Our study set out to understand these experiences in the context of the arrival of newer, dental implant treatments. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were carried out with 39 men and women who had experienced tooth loss and replacement. A thematic analysis was sensitised by prev…
Issues of recruitment and maintaining high response rates in a longitudinal study of older hospital patients in England--pathways through care study
STUDY OBJECTIVES: To describe and discuss the methods used to recruit and maintain an unbiased sample of older discharged hospital patients in a study of the process and outcomes of hospital care. DESIGN: Prospective longitudinal interview study of consecutive patients admitted to hospital over a 12 month period and followed up for six months. Interviews took place in hospital five days after admission, at home 10 days after discharge, and six mo…
