Initial Co‐Design Development of a Questionnaire to Measure Patient Preferences in a Danish Mental Healthcare Setting
BACKGROUND: Despite decades of quality improvement efforts in mental healthcare, patient preferences remain insufficiently integrated into care planning and system design. Although person-centered care strives to align services with patients' most valued preferences, current tools for measuring those preferences often fall short. Embedding co-design approaches-where patients and other stakeholders collaborate as equal partners in tool development…
Exploring stroke awareness in an ethnic minority population
Our study highlights the need for more socioculturally and linguistically accessible stroke awareness campaigns, to improve early recognition of stroke symptoms and ensure timely intervention
Quality of life, care needs and priorities in atrial fibrillation
Both number and combinations of AF comorbidities shape patients' and caregivers' experiences. Considering comorbidity profiles can help define targeted care plans and caregiver support initiatives
Association between new-onset atrial fibrillation and adverse clinical outcomes by country of origin
AF was associated with a substantially higher risk of adverse clinical outcomes among Danish-born, and all examined migrant populations. However, the impact of AF appeared to differ according to country of origin, which could indicate potential differences in AF care and compliance
Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measurements in chronic and malignant diseases
TelePRO can be applied in diseases where PRO can reflect clinical status and needs. Questionnaires and algorithms should be adapted for the specific patient groups and clinical aims. When PRO is used as replacement for clinical contact, special carefulness should be observed with respect to patient safety
Processes of Care and Associated Factors in Patients With Stroke by Immigration Status
BACKGROUND: Receiving evidence-based stroke care processes is associated with good clinical outcome. However, data on early stroke care among immigrants are scarce. OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether guideline-recommended acute stroke care and associated factors differ between immigrants and Danish-born residents. DESIGN: Patients admitted with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke diagnoses (n=129,724) between 2005 and 2018 were identified from the Da…
Parental mental health conditions and use of healthcare services in children the first year of life– a register-based, nationwide study
Both maternal and paternal mental health conditions, including minor mental health conditions, were associated with increased utilization of healthcare services. Focus on both parents' mental health conditions (even if minor) may be warranted in service planning
Depression and cognitive sequelae registered within the first year among young Danish TBI survivors
The aim of the study was to determine the proportion of depression and cognitive sequelae among young (15‐30 years) Danish TBI survivors referred to interdisciplinary evaluation through a nationwide government‐initiated health initiative. The cross‐sectional study is based on data from the “Danish register for young adults with acquired brain injury” on TBI survivors included from October 2013 to December 2016. The main measures were Major depres…
Socioeconomic position and risk of atrial fibrillation
AIM: To examine the association between socioeconomic position and the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in different stages of life in a population of Danish citizens. METHODS: Register-based study. We followed all individuals turning 35, 50, 65 or 80 years from 1 January 1996 to 31 December 2005 until AF, death, emigration or the end of study period (31 December 2015). Exposure was education and income. We used Cox regression for the HRs (95% CI…
Socioeconomic inequality in drug reimbursement during end-of-life care
BACKGROUND: In Denmark, patients who are terminally ill have the right to drug reimbursement due to terminal illness (DRTI). DRTI, a proxy marker of planned end-of-life care, is intended to be equally accessible regardless of socioeconomic position. This study examined social and socioeconomic differences in DRTI among Danish patients who are terminally ill. METHODS: This cross-sectional study based on individual-level nationwide data included al…
Evidence for the low recording of weight status and lifestyle risk factors in the Danish National Registry of Patients, 1999–2012
Despite increasing prevalence of adverse lifestyle risk factors recorded in the DNRP, the much higher prevalence of similar lifestyle risk factors in health surveys suggests that the completeness of coding in the DNRP remains poor
Is Bigger Always Better? A Nationwide Study of Hip Fracture Unit Volume, 30-Day Mortality, Quality of In-Hospital Care, and Length of Hospital Stay
BACKGROUND: Higher patient volume has been linked with better clinical outcomes for a range of surgical procedures; however, little is known about the impact of volume on quality of care and clinical outcome among patients with hip fracture. OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between hip fracture patient volume and 30-day mortality, quality of in-hospital care, time to surgery, and length of hospital stay, respectively. DESIGN: Population-bas…
Quality of Care and Patient Outcome in Stroke Units
BACKGROUND: Specialized stroke unit care improves outcome in stroke patients. However, it is uncertain whether the units should be placed in a neurological or non-neurological (eg, internal medicine or geriatric) setting. OBJECTIVES: To assess whether stroke unit setting (neurological/non-neurological) is associated with quality of care and outcome among patients with stroke, and whether these associations depend on the severity of comorbidity. M…
Quality of Care and Length of Hospital Stay Among Patients With Stroke
BACKGROUND: The relationship between quality of care and economic outcome measures, including length of stay (LOS), among patients with stroke remains to be clarified. OBJECTIVES: To determine whether quality of care is associated with LOS among patients with stroke. METHODS: In this population-based follow-up study, we included 2636 patients with stroke who had been admitted to dedicated stroke units in Aarhus County, Denmark, from 2003 to 2005.…
Quality of Care and Mortality Among Patients With Stroke
BACKGROUND: The relationship between process and outcome measures among patients with stroke is unclear. OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between quality of care and mortality among patients with stroke in a nationwide population-based follow-up study. METHODS: Using data from The Danish National Indicator Project, a quality improvement initiative with participation of all Danish hospital departments caring for patients with stroke, we iden…
