Exploring the potential of clinical documentation, a recent study examines the impact of clinical dashboards on clinical science and practice, specifically within the framework of Managing and Adapting Practice (MAP). Authored by Higa et al. the research explores the use of these decision-support tools, providing a graphical representation of clinical progress and activities in real-time. The study, based on data from 256 youth across 55 agencies, highlights the reliability and utility of clinical dashboards, demonstrating their ability to capture and organize clinical activities efficiently. The controlled vocabulary, which allows practitioners to select from an established list of clinical strategies, enhances the retrievability and actionability of healthcare information, offering a promising avenue for advancing the utility of clinical documentation. With implications for improving decision-making, client engagement, and overall healthcare quality, the study suggests that Clinical Dashboards could play a pivotal role in shaping the future of mental health services and research.

Every stroke is different. That’s why we developed Tailored Talks – a digital platform designed to enable clinicians to create and share personalised information packages for each individual patient. We understand that a stroke doesn’t just impact physical well-being; it can have an effect on every facet of life. Within Tailored Talks we have curated an extensive library of over 3,500 slides covering a spectrum of topics, form physical symptoms to mental health, lifestyle guidance and resources for navigating challenges like returning to work and financial strains. By utilising Tailored Talks, clinicians can confidently share NHS-approved, medically accurate and relevant information, empowering patients to take charge of their condition and recover from the comfort of home. Our objectives include: -       Fostering self-management among patients 💡 -       Addressing health disparities through tailored information 🌿 -       Potentially alleviating strain on medical resources 🩺 Digital solutions like Tailored Talks not only fill the gaps in care for stroke patients but also offer promise for managing other chronic conditions. Collaboration among healthcare providers, patients and industry stakeholders is essential for advancing patient care and bridging existing gaps in the healthcare landscape.

The #1 challenge to clinical trial success is patient recruitment. With so many people suffering from various illnesses, why do so few actually participate in clinical trials? Why do 85% of trials fail to recruit enough patients for a successful trial, and why have 50% of people never even heard of them? In this ebook we look at what patients are saying about clinical trials from across the United States. This free ebook looks across ethnic, age, gender, and geographic demographics at the topics, sentiment, emotions and drivers behind participation in clinical trials to better understand patients. #sociallistening #socialintelligence #listentopatients #patientsfirst #patients #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch #patientcentricity #patientadvocacy

☀️ I am happy to share insights from our study on rheumatology patients’ perceptions of goal setting prior to interdisciplinary rehabilitation ☀️ 🔎 Key findings: Patients perceive goal setting as a joint venture between health professionals and themselves, with three categories highlighting facilitators and barriers: ➡️ Responsibility for Goal Setting: Some recognized a shared responsibility, while others viewed health professionals as the experts who should take the lead. ➡️ Equipped for Goal Setting: Some felt well-prepared, aided by prior information and discussions with family, while others found goal setting difficult due to lack of knowledge or struggling with personal resources. ➡️ An Equal Member of the Team: Some felt like valued team members, appreciated for their input, while others felt like outsiders, intimidated by the authority of healthcare professionals. 💡 This research sheds light on the challenges patients face in the goal-setting process. Participation depends on both capacity and opportunity, factors linked to patients’ level of health literacy. I'm very grateful for the support of my supervisors (Ann Bremander, Brian Clausen and Jette Primdahl) and colleagues throughout this journey.

Imagine living with MS and having to travel 3-4 hours to see an MS specialist. Unfortunately, that is an all-too-common situation faced by people with MS in the United States.    Wouldn’t it be better if people could go see a healthcare provider who knows about MS in their community? Of course!    So how do you solve this problem of getting more neurologists and healthcare providers up to speed in treating people with MS? The National MS Society’s ECHO MS program is one solution to this complex challenge.    ECHO MS increases the capacity of neurologists and other healthcare providers to diagnose and manage individuals with multiple sclerosis. This free (yes it’s free!) CME program follows Project ECHO’s evidence-based tele-mentoring model and establishes a peer-to-peer knowledge-sharing network. Each ECHO MS session features a brief didactic and two case discussions.     If you’re a general neurologist or health professional who treats people with MS and want to level up your skills, the ECHO MS: Care Essentials program is for you.     Some of the topics discussed include:  ◼ How to Diagnose MS  ◼ MRI in Diagnosis and Monitoring  ◼ Diagnostic Clinical Red Flags  ◼ Recognizing and Managing an MS Relapse  ◼ MS Disease Modifying Therapies    These sessions are all led by experienced MS specialists at centers across the United States. You can learn more and register here - https://lnkd.in/e5vqYkhQ.    And the best part – no travel is required! Your commute to the learning session is only as far as it takes you to get in front of a computer.     Be part of bringing high-quality health care to people with MS across the country. Join us today! Together we are stronger. Suma Shah Annette Wundes

Clinical decision support tools can provide actionable information, but issues like alarm fatigue can increase clinician burnout. - https://bit.ly/3ug7kzI
