How Do We Achieve Impactful Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement in Statistical Methodology Research? A Qualitative Research Protocol
BACKGROUND: Patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) is vital for good-quality health research. However, PPIE is more commonly practised in some types of research than others. Statistical methodology research aims to improve the way we design studies and analyse data. It can be particularly challenging to involve members of the public and patients in this type of research because the work can be technical and difficult to explain. Con…
Reflections and Guidance on Using Ethnographic Approaches in Health and Care Research – Ten Researchers’ Diverse Insights
Ethnographic approaches to health and care research are invaluable. They offer rich insight into contextual and cultural factors that influence the health service, as well as the delivery of care within any given community, and recognise the centrality of the researcher in the process. Understanding the unfolding of real-life events, as well as interactions between people, space, technology and other affordances, is crucial to developing impactfu…
Reflections on Digital Maternal and Child Health Support for Mothers and Community Health Workers in Rural Areas of Limpopo Province, South Africa
Participants expressed the significant role of digital support apps in maternal and child health, which is impacted by various challenges. Addressing the lack of digital resources could improve access to health instructions for pregnant women and mothers
Healthcare professionals’ experiences and perceptions regarding health care of indigenous pregnant women in Ecuador
Curating the digital space
Digital health occupies an increasingly important role within the context of managing risk and safety in pregnancy. Women routinely use websites, mobile phone apps and social media platforms to learn about ‘normal’ pregnancy related changes and potential signs of a complication. This paper shifts attention from women's digital experiences to explore staff responsibilities in relation to women's online practices during pregnancy. We draw on Thomas…
Am I safe? An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of Vulnerability as Experienced by Patients With Complications Following Surgery
Abdominal surgery carries with it risks of complications. Little is known about patients’ experiences of post-surgical deterioration. There is a real need to understand the psychosocial as well as the biological aspects of deterioration in order to improve care and outcomes for patients. Drawing on in-depth interviews with seven abdominal surgery survivors, we present an idiographic account of participants’ experiences, situating their contributi…
Digital mediation of candidacy in maternity care
Understanding and managing uncertainty in health care
In this collection we revisit the enduring phenomenon of uncertainty in health care, and demonstrate how it still offers coherence and significance as an analytic concept. Through empirical studies of contemporary examples of health care related uncertainties and their management, our collection explores the different ways in which uncertainty may be articulated, enacted and experienced. The papers address a diverse range of healthcare contexts -…
Employing the arts for knowledge production and translation
OBJECTIVES: This project used animated film to translate research findings into accessible health information aimed at enabling women to speak up and secure professional help for serious safety concerns during pregnancy and after birth. We tested as proof of concept our use of the arts both as product (knowledge production) and process (enabling involvement). BACKGROUND: Emergencies during pregnancy and birth, while unusual, can develop rapidly a…
The social practice of rescue
The normative position in acute hospital care when a patient is seriously ill is to resuscitate and rescue. However, a number ofUKand international reports have highlighted problems with the lack of timely recognition, treatment and referral of patients whose condition is deteriorating while being cared for on hospital wards. This article explores the social practice of rescue, and the structural and cultural influences that guide the categorisat…
The role of patients and their relatives in ‘speaking up’ about their own safety – a qualitative study of acute illness
BACKGROUND: Poor recognition of and response to acute illness in hospitalized patients continues to cause significant harm despite the implementation of safety strategies such as early warning scores. Patients and their relatives may be able to contribute to their own safety by speaking up about changes in condition, but little is known about the factors that influence this. This study examined the experiences and views of patients and their rela…
The habitus of ‘rescue’ and its significance for implementation of rapid response systems in acute health care
Overcoming gendered and professional hierarchies in order to facilitate escalation of care in emergency situations
