Factors supporting optimisation of psychotropic deprescribing in people with intellectual disabilities within the UK
Overprescribing psychotropic medication for people with intellectual disabilities increases the risk of adverse effects and has prompted deprescribing initiatives internationally. However, factors that support optimal psychotropic deprescribing in this population remain unclear. The aim of this study is to develop consensus within the UK about factors supporting optimal psychotropic deprescribing using an online Delphi study. A modified Delphi st…
A realist evaluation of social care practitioners’ experiences with and understanding of applied healthcare research
Social care practitioners are often under-represented in research activity and output. This article presents findings from a National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) funded realist evaluation to understand and explain how, why, for whom, and in what contexts mental health social care practitioners engage with research. The study uses a current NIHR-funded study—REalist Synthesis Of non-pharmacologicaL interVEntions for antipsychotic…
What really is nontokenistic fully inclusive patient and public involvement/engagement in research
Patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) is critically important in healthcare research. A useful starting point for researchers to understand the scope of PPIE is to review the definition from the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) as, ‘research being carried out “with” or “by” members of the public rather than “to”, “about” or “for” them’. PPIE does not refer to participation in research, but to actively shaping …
A Realist Evaluation of Social Care Practitioners’ Experiences With and Understanding of Applied Healthcare Research
Social care practitioners are often under-represented in research activity and output. Evidence-based practice enables social care practitioners to develop/engage the skills to evaluate evidence and be more actively involved in research. REalist Synthesis Of non-pharmacologicaL interVEntions for antipsychotic-induced weight gain (RESOLVE) is a NIHR-funded study where realist synthesis is used to understand and explain how, why, for whom, and in w…
Feasibility and desirability of a realist CMOC database
Central to realist evaluation is its focus on underlying generative mechanisms that cause outcomes in particular contexts, often presented as context–mechanism–outcome configurations. The first author brought together 22 realist evaluation experts in a Delphi technique-inspired exercise to explore the potential of creating a database from context–mechanism–outcome configurations identified in the empirical literature, to enhance learning about wh…
Providing a Supportive Environment for Disclosure of Sexual Violence and Abuse in a Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare Setting
Background: Sexual and reproductive healthcare services (SRHS) are an environment where medical care relevant to sexual violence and abuse (SV) is available. However, barriers to disclosure need to be overcome to allow timely access to this care. There is limited research identifying and explaining how interventions remove barriers and create a safe and supportive environment for disclosure. The purpose of this review was to develop and refine th…
The experiences of the caring dyad
BACKGROUND: Informal carers play an important role in the care of patients with mental illness. Little is known of the relationship experience of the patient and their informal carer (caring dyad) as the context for the intersection between physical and mental health. AIM: This study aimed to explore the impact of comorbid cardiometabolic risk (CMR), metabolic syndrome (MetS) and related diseases and severe mental illness (SMI) on the caring dyad…
A qualitative study exploring medication management in people with dementia living in the community and the potential role of the community pharmacist
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of dementia is increasing rapidly. People with dementia may be prescribed complex medication regimens, which may be challenging for them and any carers involved to safely manage. OBJECTIVE: To describe and understand the key challenges, in relation to medication issues, experienced by people with dementia and their informal carers dwelling in the community and the potential role of community pharmacists. DESIGN: Qualita…
