Abstract:
It is the responsibility of professions to provide evidence of the demonstrable value and quality of service delivery. Occupational therapists in mental health care settings find it difficult to produce convincing evidence of the demonstrable value and their contribution to health care. Currently no effective outcome measure for occupational therapists in mental health practices exists for the South African context . The development of an outcomes measuring system is much needed in these crucial times of cost-cutting, rendering quality of care with the minimum resources and the quest for evidence of the effect of intervention. The purpose of this study was to fill the outcome measurement gap by developing a system that is clinically tested and user-friendly for occupational therapists in mental health care settings. Such a system had to represent the outcomes in the occupational therapy programmes, meet the needs of the therapist in terms of purpose of the tool, be easily administered and be standardised. It was also important that the outcome measure was grounded in the theoretical framework that guides intervention programmes, namely Vona du Toit’s Model of Creative Ability. This theoretical framework is widely used in South African mental health care settings and was found suitable to be transformed into a rating scale for the outcome measure. A participatory approach combined with a mixed method exploratory design, specifically the instrument development model, was selected to guide the study. The development of the outcome measure happened in three phases. Domains for the outcome measure emerged after participation from occupational therapy clinicians and mental health care users in Phase 1. The operationalisation of the domains and the development of the rating scale happened during Phase 2. The third phase was the piloting of the outcome measure to identify issues to be optimised for the final implementation of the outcome measure. Eight domains with 52 representative items emerged from Phase 1. The domains were Process skills, Communication and Interaction skills, Lifeskills, Role performance, Balanced lifestyle, Motivation, Self-esteem and Affect. Clinicians were satisfied that these domains represented the service that they deliver and compared well with the mental health care users’ need for occupational therapy. The involvement of mental health care users in confirming relevant domains for the outcome measure ensured a client-centred approach in the research process. The outcome measure, named as the Activity Participation Outcome Measure (APOM), has a unique feature of generating reports and spider graphs for every mental health care user. The APOM was piloted in three mental health care settings. In spite of good intentions from clinicians to apply the measure, it was clear that measuring outcomes is neither a priority, nor a routine task in clinical settings. The preliminary investigation into the psychometric properties yielded positive results. However, the sample sizes for the validity and reliability samples were not optimal and further data collection needs to continue for confirmation. It is recommended that investigations into the psychometric properties of the instrument continue to eventually market it as a valid and reliable outcome measure for occupational therapists in mental health care settings.

Abstract:
Abstract Patients with acute drug poisonings are common in emergency departments and hospitals. Patients typically ingest medical products, most commonly psychotropic drugs that lead to intoxication. The outcome is usually good and hospital stays are short, even among patients requiring intensive care. Complications such as aspiration pneumonia can prolong hospital stays. Acute mortality is low (usually less than 5%) but repetition of self-harm is common and long-term mortality is high. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of drug poisoned patients and the factors associated with unfavourable outcome, including morbidity, length of intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stays, repetition of drug poisonings, and mortality. The study population consisted of patients treated in Oulu University Hospital due to acute drug poisoning between 1985–2006 and drug poisoned patients in the data base of the Finnish Consortium intensive Care Data. In the first part of the study 276 hospitalised self-poisoned adolescents were examined retrospectively from the patient records for acute contributing risk factors before the intake. Patients with such risk factors had higher rates of depression, non-ethanol poisonings and repetition of self-poisoning within one year. The second part of the study included 257 acute drug-poisoned adult patients requiring intensive care. The factors associated to aspiration pneumonia were evaluated retrospectively. Of these, 28.4% had aspiration pneumonia. Pre-hospital intubation of the comatose patients was associated with lower number of aspiration pneumonias. The third study evaluated 2755 drug-poisoned patients requiring intensive care for risk factors for prolonged ICU length of stay (LOS) using national intensive care database. Factors associated with prolonged stay were respiratory failure, renal dysfunction and lowered platelet count on admission. The hospital mortality in these studies ranged from 0 to 1.6%. The fourth study evaluated the long-term mortality and causes of deaths of 3709 patients admitted to Oulu University Hospital due to acute drug poisoning between 1985 and 2000. The all-cause mortality was recorded at the end 2009 and patients were compared to age- and sex-matched controls. Mortality among the study population was 30.6% compared to 13.6% for the controls. In conclusion, patients admitted to hospital due to acute drug poisoning have good short-term outcomes. Factors associated with prolonged ICU LOS were aspiration pneumonia, respiratory failure on admission, lowered platelet count on admission and renal dysfunction on admission. Impulsive self-poisonings among adolescents are associated with psychopathology and repetitions. Patients with acute drug poisonings have high long-term mortality
Tiivistelmä Myrkytyspotilaat ovat yleinen potilasryhmä päivystyksissä ja sairaaloissa. Sairaalahoitoisen, akuutin lääkeainemyrkytyksen ennuste on hyvä ja jopa tehohoitoa vaativat potilaat selviävät lyhyellä sairaalahoitojaksolla. Komplikaatiot, kuten mahan sisällön hengitysteihin joutumisesta aiheutuva keuhkokuume (aspiraatiokeuhkokuume) pitkittävät hoitoa. Kuolleisuus hoitojakson aikana on yleensä alle 5 %, mutta pitkäaikaiskuolleisuus näillä potilailla on merkittävä. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää akuutin lääkeainemyrkytyspotilaan ennustetta ja ennusteeseen vaikuttavia tekijöitä. Ensimmäisessä osatyössä tutkittiin 276 nuoren myrkytyspotilaan myrkytystapahtumaan vaikuttaneita akuutteja riskitekijöitä. Potilaat, joilla oli riskitekijöitä, olivat useammin masentuneita ja heillä oli enemmän uusintakäyntejä myrkytysten vuoksi vuoden sisällä. Toisessa osatyössä selvitettiin aspiraatiokeuhkokuumeen yleisyyttä 257 tehohoitoa tarvinneella lääkemyrkytyspotilaalla. Potilaista 28,4 % sai aspiraatiokeuhkokuumeen. Ennen sairaalaan tuloa suoritettu hengitysteiden varmistaminen hengitysputkella (intubaatio) pienensi aspiraatiokeuhkokuumeen riskiä merkittävästi verrattuna niihin, jotka intuboitiin vasta sairaalassa. Kolmannessa osatyössä tutkittiin 2755 myrkytyspotilaan riskitekijöitä pitkittyneeseen tehohoitoon. Hengitysvajaus, munuaisten toiminnan vajaus ja matala veren verihiutalearvo sairaalaan tullessa olivat pitkittyneen hoidon riskitekijöitä. Kuolleisuus hoitojakson aikana oli näissä kolmessa tutkimuksessa 0–1.6 %. Neljännessä osatyössä tutkittiin 1985–2000 OYS:ssa hoidettujen myrkytyspotilaiden pitkäaikaisennustetta ja kuolinsyitä. Kuolleisuus vuoden 2009 loppuun mennessä oli 3709 potilaan joukossa 30,4 %, kun vastaava kuolleisuus ikä- ja sukupuolivakioitujen verrokkien keskuudessa oli 13,6 %. Kaikki kuolinsyyt olivat yleisempiä tutkimusjoukossa verrattuna verrokkeihin. Yhteenvetona voidaan todeta että akuuttien myrkytyspotilaiden ennuste on hyvä akuutissa vaiheessa. Aspiraatiokeuhkokuume on yleinen komplikaatio myrkytyspotilailla ja se on osittain vältettävissä hengitystien varhaisella varmistamisella. Impulsiivinen käytös nuorella myrkytyspotilaalla assosioituu psykopatologiaan ja uusintamyrkytyksiin. Myrkytyspotilaan pitkäaikaisennuste on huono. Kuolleisuus ennaltaehkäistäviin syihin, kuten itsemurhiin sekä sydän- ja verisuonitauteihin, on huomattava

Abstract:
This study examined differential outcome between two stress management approaches according to subject characteristics. It was hypothesized that individuals with certain characteristics might benefit more from one form of stress management training (Rational Emotive Therapy) than another (Gendlin Focusing). The implication, were this hypothesis to be supported, would be that individuals could be streamed into one form of training versus another, according to certain personality variables, and the result would be greater effectiveness and efficiency in the delivery of services. Subjects were classed as having one of two sets of characteristics. One class of subjects (N = 34) displayed stress cognitively on the Cognitive-Somatic Anxiety Questionnaire (CSAQ) and were of the Sensing type on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) while the other class of subjects (N = 31) displayed their stress somatically on the CSAQ and were of the Intuitive type on the MBTI. Based on personality theory, cognitively anxious Sensing types were predicted to have greater decreases in stress as a result of receiving a Rational Emotive Therapy approach to stress management while somatically anxious Intuitive types were predicted to have greater decreases in stress as a result of receiving a Gendlin Focusing approach to stress management. Additional measures of client characteristics were taken in order to explore the predictive potential of variables which the literature indicates might be useful in predicting differential outcome. These included Locus of Control, Verbal Reasoning, Abstract Reasoning, Experiencing Ability, Rational Beliefs. A measure of stress (Symptom Check List-90-R) was taken at three points in time: pre, post-training (or post-waiting as in the case of the waiting-list controls), and at one-month follow-up. A waiting-list control group (N = 30) was utilized to demonstrate a treatment versus no treatment comparison. Treatment group subjects received 12-15 hours of stress management training in either (Rational Emotive Therapy) RET or Focusing spread over 5 weeks. Half of each class of subjects received RET while the other half of each class of subjects received Focusing. Key results include: Both classes of treatment subjects displayed significantly greater reductions (p .05) in stress levels after training as compared to waiting-list control subjects who had not received training over the same period of time. The main hypothesis was not supported. There were no statistically significant treatment by classification interactions. However, there were relationships between client satisfaction, use of the techniques, and decrease in reported levels of stress. Further analyses showed that none of the variables were significant predictors of outcome. This Study introduced Focusing as a viable stress management technique.

Abstract:
While sanctions proliferated after the Cold War, concerns remain about their effectiveness and humanitarian impact. In addressing these concerns, scholars have offered diverse frameworks generally emphasizing sanctions' design or application. This thesis argues that the proper focus of concern is conceptually prior to each of these. In fact, lacking political will has been characteristic of sanctions cases and the root of sanctions' failures. Significantly, the cost-benefit calculus informing policymakers' political will has been systematically incomplete. Sanctions are often judged on their lifting, in the country on which they were imposed, yet this unreasonably crops out broader sanctions' impact. Sanctions have an understudied capacity for creating vacuums filled by indigenous influences, for lastingly restructuring societies, and for affecting human capital, each in a manner obstructive of post-conflict peacebuilding and reconstruction. This has vital policy relevance given its impact on substantive international peace and security, the breech of which initially spurs sanctions. Contemporary efforts in Iraq, Haiti, Serbia, and South Africa are explored in illustration.

Gerjy, Roger. "Outcome After Haemorrhoidopexy." Doctoral thesis, Linköpings universitet, Kirurgi, 2008. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-11797.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: This dissertation is composed of five individual studies of the stapled haemorrhoidopexy operation. The operation was launched to an international audience in 1998 by the Italian surgeon Antonio Longo. In conventional surgery the prolapsed piles are excised from the anodermal part of the prolapse up through the anal canal into the lower rectal mucosa where the pile is divided with diathermy or suture ligated and excised. It leaves open wounds throughout the anal canal. These wounds can be very painful, especially at defecation, and will take from three to six weeks to heal. In the stapled haemorrhoidopexy operation symptomatic haemorrhoids are seen as a disease of anodermal, haemorrhoidal and rectal mucosal prolapse of varying degree. The main component of the prolapse is the redundancy of rectal mucosa. By pushing back the prolapse into the anal canal followed by excision of the mucosal redundancy above the anal canal with a circular stapler devise a mucosal anastomosis is fashioned. This anastomosis is situated immediately above the haemorrhoids and will attach them to the rectal muscular wall to prevent further prolapse. The operation is associated with substantially less pain and a quicker recovery. Methods: For the five studies, a total of 334 patients were operated for haemorrhoidal prolapse. The first operations were performed in February 1998. All patients were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively with the same set of protocols as follows. The symptoms of haemorrhoids were scored with a questionnaire to patients to obtain their independent statements of the frequency of each of five cardinal symptoms: pain, bleeding, pruritus, soiling and prolapse in need of manual reduction. A diary was used by patients to report daily pain scores, use of pain medication and speed of recovery within the first 14 postoperative days. The surgeon rated the deranged anal anatomy before and after surgery. We also developed an algorithm based on the patients’ statement of digital reduction of prolapse (grade 3) and the surgeon’s assessment of lesser prolapse at proctoscopy (grade 2). Absence of prolapse was grade 1. The surgeon also provided statements about the conduct of the operation and rated the technical complexity. The information, for all patients, was entered into an electronic data base. Results: One registry based study and one prospective randomised controlled trial assessed the advantage of performing the operation under perianal local anaesthetic block. The postoperative pain and surgical outcome was independent of the type of anaesthesia. No operation under local block had to be converted to general anaesthesia. Anodermal prolapse is seen in 70 percent of the patients. In a registry-based study we found that excision of the anodermal folds did not increase the postoperative pain provided the excision stopped at the anal verge. In 270 patients with precise preoperative and postoperative classification we found that the symptomatic load was identical for grades 2 and 3. The symptoms were independent of the anodermal prolapse. The symptoms were greatly reduced when the operation turned out grade 1 prolapse. The long-term result was assessed in 153 patients operated 1 year to 6 years previously. The need for early re-intervention was 6.2 percent representing technical error to reduce the prolapse. At the final evaluation 12 patients (8.2 percent) complained of a mucoanal prolapse in need of digital reduction. The mean symptom burden had been reduced from 8.1 to 2.5 points but 17 percent had at least one cardinal symptom with a weekly frequency. Conclusions: Stapled haemorrhoidopexy should be performed as day surgery under local anaesthesia. Any remaining anodermal prolapse should be excised. The optimal long-term outcome is grade 1A or 1B with low symptom score. There was an 87 percent chance of cure of the prolapse with the first haemorrhoidopexy. About half the failures were insufficient primary surgery and half a relapse of the prolapse.

The original title of article IV was "Prolapse grade and symptoms of haemorrhoids are poorly correlated: result of a classification algorithm in 270 patients. The new title after publishing the article is "Grade of prolapse and symptoms of haemorrhoids are poorly correlated: result of a classification algorithm in 270 patients".

Abstract:
Globally individuals and health care systems are facing the burden of chronic illness. The impact of the increasing burden of non-communicable diseases is experienced by individuals and health care systems. Across the globe health care systems are struggling to meet the increasing demands for services within the confines of rising costs and needs for accountability. Beyond costs and treatment allocations, there is an increasing mandate to provide care that is patient centred and appropriate to the needs of the individual. The Innovative Care in Chronic Condition (ICCC) framework has been successful in driving health care reforms to meet the needs of individuals with chronic illness internationally. Deriving metrics that allow monitoring of conditions at the level of the patient, provider and health care system are of increasing importance. Comprising this thesis is a series of studies to investigate outcomes that includes the patient’s perspective in the evaluation of clinical interventions. To achieve this, chronic heart failure, was used as an exemplar of a chronic condition.Chronic heart failure (CHF) is the final common pathway for many cardiac conditions. As a consequence has emerged as a major public health problem and represents as an excellent exemplar of living with a chronic illness. CHF patients commonly experience high levels of ill-health, disability and mortality placing a heavy burden on health care systems. Hospitalisations are frequent and costly to both CHF patients and to society. People with CHF live with a limited quality of life and physical ability and the prognosis for CHF is poor. Given the nature of debilitating symptoms, and their potential impact on physical, social and psychological aspects of life, patient’s perspective in outcome assessment is essential in providing effective care.Specifically this study sought to: •Examine patient reported outcomes in clinical management and in clinical research •Investigate patient important outcomes, their utility, relevance and acceptability amongst patients, clinicians, researchers and administrators •Test composite outcomes model that integrate patient important outcomes in clinical trials researchPatient reported outcomes (PROs) is a strategy to capture the patient perspective and experience on their health status. The use of PROs can be incorporated in clinical assessments, monitoring of clinical progress as well as clinical research. Despite their frequent use in research, evidence suggests that to date they have had a limited influence on clinical practice and policy. As part of this thesis an integrative review was conducted to explore the potential utility of PROs at the policy level. By using the ICCC framework, PROs were indeed essential to improve the management of CHF at the micro, meso and macro levels of decision making.One of the key challenges in using PROs and outcomes important to individuals in CHF is limited methodological and reporting quality. This is cited as a reason why many clinicians are sceptical of the utility of PROs. To explore issues in reporting a review was conducted on RCTs of pharmacological therapy in CHF that reported health related quality of life (HRQoL) as a primary or secondary outcome. Using the Minimum Standard Checklist for evaluating the quality of reporting of HRQoL outcomes resulted in 26 (19.1%) studies being considered ‘very limited’ in terms of methodological and reporting rigour, and 91 (66.9%) were evaluated as ‘limited’ and only 19 (14.0%) studies were considered to be of a ‘probably robust’ quality. In fact, the quality of HRQoL reporting has not improved over time. Some of the issues identified are limited discussions, methodological shortcomings, and poor HRQoL reporting. This review has underscored the importance of standardising of the reporting of HRQoL measures.Although capturing the patient’s perspective via PROs is important, they may not be the only outcome measures important to patients. Currently, no single CHF outcome measure captures all dimensions of the quality of care from the patient’s perspective. To identify outcome measures in CHF deemed important to patients, a structured literature review was undertaken. The conceptual and methodological challenges and opportunities in each outcome measure were identified as important to patients with CHF. That is mortality, hospitalisation and PROs were identified as important to patients but also meaningful and relevant to the provider and health care system as well. These outcome measures were proposed as a core outcome set that represent the minimum set of outcomes that should be measured and reported in CHF.A number of composite outcome measures have been developed to capture the perspective of the patient, clinician as well as including objective measures of health. Three validated composite outcomes, the Packer’s Score, Cleland’s Patient Journey and the composite endpoint used in the African American Heart Failure Trial (A-HeFT) were examined in a secondary analysis of a prospective, multi-center randomized controlled trial of 280 hospitalized CHF patients in the Which Heart failure Intervention is most Cost-effective & Consumer Friendly in Reducing Hospital Care (WHICH?) Trial in order to assess the comparability and interpretability of the measures in a pragmatic clinical trial. Correlation coefficients demonstrated substantial associations amongst all three composite endpoints. Although there was a considerable agreement across the three measures when estimating deteriorating condition, these was less when estimating improvements.This thesis has described both the importance and complexity of including outcome measures that are meaningful to patients in both the assessment of individuals’ needs, testing interventions, monitoring outcomes and assessing process and outcome measures at a health systems level. This thesis has also extended the discussion and debate around PROs to discuss Patient Important Outcomes, which is outcomes that patients notice and for which they would be willing to undergo a treatment with associated risk, cost, or inconvenience for it to be the only thing that changed. Using CHF as an exemplar has provided useful insights into the dimensions and complexities of measuring outcomes in chronic and complex conditions. As the burden of chronic disease continues to increase refining the metrics of outcome measurements will be equally as important as refining novel therapies. This will be critical to develop and implement interventions to meet the growing numbers of people living with chronic illness.

Abstract:
Abstract Milwaukee School of Engineering’s Mechanical Engineering Department, having successfully completed the accreditation of the ME program in 2018–19 under the prior a through k student outcomes, dedicated the program meetings during academic year 2019–20 to develop assessment instruments in transitioning to the new ABET Student Outcomes 1–7. By deliberately involving the entire faculty to participate in the development of instruments, a grassroots level discussion and creation ensued for each outcome. The process is showcased in this paper for Student Outcome 4 on ethics as a model to share with our engineering faculty and to highlight salient features in the developed instrument and associated rubrics. The details of performance indicators interwoven across the curriculum and the methods of data collection are provided in a tabular form for ease of expectation and implementation. How the readily available materials from the National Society of Professional Engineers could be incorporated at early years of the baccalaureate program while the outcome’s performance indicators could be assessed at a deeper level during junior and senior years are showcased in this paper. The periodic dialogue among all colleagues who were working on various outcomes ensured proper communication of what one outcome group is prescribing that we do and receive input from those who are involved with the courses in which the data needed to be collected and the performance indicators are to be assessed. The general structure of our standing committees on freshman courses, energy, mechanics, and controls also provided the cushion to review the assessment instruments and provide constructive feedback from the corresponding committee’s perspective. These details of a very interactive Student Outcomes Assessment process will be presented.

Abstract:
A comprehensive implementation of outcome portfolios is presented. Outcome portfolios are assessment tools used by the authors to accomplish triangulation in the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) EC-2000 assessment process. Systematic and effective use of outcome portfolios has provided us with a convenient, reliable, and powerful tool for assessing the level of achievement of our graduates on all the program outcomes for the Aerospace Engineering and Mechanical Engineering programs at West Virginia University. The objective of this paper is to describe our approach to assembling, assessing, and improving outcome portfolios as an essential outcome assessment tool under ABET Criterion 3. The process is illustrated in detail using outcome “k” [1] as an example. Assessment data are presented to support the hypothesis that survey data alone are inconclusive and that outcome portfolios provide additional, valuable information for program enhancement. A comparison between the assessment data for the two programs, Aerospace Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, is used to support our conclusions.

Abstract:
The assessment of program outcomes for ABET accreditation has become a challenge for engineering programs nationwide. Various methods and approaches have been investigated to develop good practices for program assessment. At South Dakota State University (SDSU), an approach called Faculty Course Assessment Reports (FCAR) has been explored for mechanical engineering (ME) program assessment. FCAR provides an assessment tool to correlate the ME program outcomes with the outcomes of the core ME courses, and to evaluate student performance at the course level based on ABET outcome criterion. This process begins with the development of course objectives and outcomes. Then these course objectives and outcomes are directly mapped with the ME program objectives and outcomes respectively. Further the quantitative and qualitative details generated in the FCAR are lined up directly to ABET program outcome a to k criterion through FCAR rubrics. By use of the FCAR process, all ME program outcomes are evaluated at the course level based on the ABET program outcomes. The assessment results are being used for improvement of the ME curriculum. The process was developed to provide an effective tool for the ME program outcome assessment at the course level with reasonable effort.

Abstract:
Objective. The objective of this project was to demonstrate the feasibility and value of collecting harmonized depression outcome measures in the patient registry and health system settings, displaying the outcome measures to clinicians to support individual patient care and population health management, and using the resulting measures data to support patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR). Methods. The harmonized depression outcome measures selected for this project were response, remission, recurrence, suicide ideation and behavior, adverse effects of treatment, and death from suicide. The measures were calculated in the PRIME Registry, sponsored by the American Board of Family Medicine, and PsychPRO, sponsored by the American Psychiatric Association, and displayed on the registry dashboards for the participating pilot sites. At the conclusion of the data collection period (March 2020-March 2021), registry data were analyzed to describe implementation of measurement-based care and outcomes in the primary care and behavioral health care settings. To calculate and display the measures in the health system setting, a Substitutable Medical Apps, Reusable Technology (SMART) on Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource (FHIR) application was developed and deployed at Baystate Health. Finally a stakeholder panel was convened to develop a prioritized research agenda for PCOR in depression and to provide feedback on the development of a data use and governance toolkit. Results. Calculation of the harmonized outcome measures within the PRIME Registry and PsychPRO was feasible, but technical and operational barriers needed to be overcome to ensure that relevant data were available and that the measures were meaningful to clinicians. Analysis of the registry data demonstrated that the harmonized outcome measures can be used to support PCOR across care settings and data sources. In the health system setting, this project demonstrated that it is technically and operationally feasible to use an open-source app to calculate and display the outcome measures in the clinician’s workflow. Finally, this project produced tools and resources to support future implementations of harmonized measures and use of the resulting data for research, including a prioritized research agenda and data use and governance toolkit. Conclusion. Standardization of outcome measures across patient registries and routine clinical care is an important step toward creating robust, national-level data infrastructure that could serve as the foundation for learning health systems, quality improvement initiatives, and research. This project demonstrated that it is feasible to calculate the harmonized outcome measures for depression in two patient registries and a health system setting, display the results to clinicians to support individual patient management and population health, and use the outcome measures data to support research. This project also assessed the value and burden of capturing the measures in different care settings and created standards-based tools and other resources to support future implementations of harmonized outcome measures in depression and other clinical areas. The findings and lessons learned from this project should serve as a roadmap to guide future implementations of harmonized outcome measures in depression and other clinical areas.
