Data Quality Assurance in Ehr Abstraction for Patient Safety Research: Key Findings From Safest
Autoavaliação Da Segurança Perioperatória Do Doente Em Dois Hospitais Terciários Portugueses: Aplicação Da Ferramenta Safest
The use of social return on investment approaches to evaluate integrated long-term care in high-income countries: A scoping review
BACKGROUND: The increasing number of older adults with complex care needs underscores the urgent need for improved coordination between health and social services, emphasizing the importance of integrated care models. The Social Return on Investment (SROI) framework is a valuable tool for evaluating the social, economic, and environmental impact of healthcare interventions, including integrated long-term care (LTC) solutions. However, a gap remai…
Evaluation of Sinergiaps, an Intervention to Improve Patient Safety in Primary Healthcare Centers in Spain Based on Patients’ Perceptions and Experiences: A protocol for a hybrid type I randomized cli…
Background Adverse events in the primary care setting result in a direct cost equivalent to at least 2.5% of total healthcare spending. Across OECD countries, they lead to more than seven million avoidable hospital admissions annually. In this manuscript, we describe the protocol of a trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of SinergiAPS (a patient-centered audit and feedback intervention) in reducing avoidable hospital admission and explore …

Preferences Regarding Self-Management Intervention Outcomes of Dutch Chronically Ill Patients With Limited Health Literacy
Background: For many chronically ill patients self-management of their disease is difficult. This may be especially true for people with limited health literacy as they are faced with additional challenges in the day-to-day management of their disease. Research has shown that self-management support is most effective when tailored to the needs and preferences of patients. Therefore, this study explores the preferences regarding self-management ou…

Talking the same language on patient empowerment: Development and content validation of a taxonomy of self‐management interventions for chronic conditions
CONTEXT: The literature on self-management interventions (SMIs) is growing exponentially, but it is characterized by heterogeneous reporting that limits comparability across studies and interventions. Building an SMI taxonomy is the first step towards creating a common language for stakeholders to drive research in this area and promote patient self-management and empowerment. OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate the content of a comprehensive taxo…
Cross‐cultural validation of the patient‐practitioner orientation scale among primary care professionals in Spain
BACKGROUND: In recent decades, many self-report instruments have been developed to assess the extent to which patients want to be informed and involved in decisions about their health as part of the concept of person-centred care (PCC). The main objective of this research was to translate, adapt and validate the Patient-Practitioner Orientation Scale (PPOS) using a sample of primary care health-care professionals in Spain. METHODS: Baseline analy…
Co-Design Process of a Virtual Community of Practice for the Empowerment of People with Ischemic Heart Disease
A people-centred co-design process of a vCoP may facilitate the empowerment of people with IHD
Engaging and empowering people to improve chronic care and patients’ outcomes
Background: Person-centred care can have a big impact on the quality of care. Reviews of research about this topic found that offering care in a more person-centred way usually improves outcomes. Some of the most common ways that have shown to improve person-centred care include helping people learn more about their conditions, prompting people to be more engaged in health consultations and training professionals to facilitate care that empowers …
Patient empowerment as a promising avenue towards health and social care integration: Results from an overview of systematic reviews of patient empowerment interventions
Background: The ever increasing complexity of health care paired with the increasing proportion of chronic patients and other factors are clearly exacerbating the need for an all round well coordinated health (and social) system. This need for better integration of services has long sparked the interest for health system research and in the last 15 years this area has expanded and it now includes the increasingly active role of the patients, the …
Organizational Culture: An Important Context for Addressing and Improving Hospital to Community Patient Discharge
