Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures01:22

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

4.9K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

3.7K
Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Geneva. The WHO has many initiatives that center around health. Primarily, they lead global efforts to expand universal health coverage using science-based policies and programs. They are also responsible for shaping health research agendas and developing norms and standards.
The WHO provides expert team support, including funding, vaccines, testing, and treatment tools at the country level to fight...

Study Designs in Epidemiology

1.5K
Epidemiological study designs are fundamental tools for investigating the distribution, determinants, and control of health conditions in populations. They help researchers understand the relationships between exposures and outcomes, and they broadly fall into two categories: "observational" and "experimental" studies.
Observational studies are those where the researcher does not intervene but rather observes natural variations. They include cross-sectional, cohort, and...

Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

787
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Introduction to Epidemiology01:26

Introduction to Epidemiology

2.5K
Epidemiology, known as the cornerstone of public health, involves studying the distribution and determinants of health-related events in defined populations and applying these insights to control health issues. This is essential for understanding how diseases spread, identifying populations at greater risk, and implementing measures to control or prevent outbreaks. Epidemiology addresses not only infectious diseases but also non-communicable conditions like cancer and cardiovascular disease,...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Services Research
  • Program Evaluation

Background:

  • Evidence-based public health traditionally relies on empirical research.
  • Practice-based evidence from real-world programs offers a valuable, yet underutilized, source of information.
  • Lack of consensus on defining best practices hinders their application in public health.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the gap in literature regarding practice-based evidence.
  • To propose an evaluation framework for selecting best practices in public health interventions.
  • To enhance the credibility and utility of practice-based evidence.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a systematic literature review of existing evaluation frameworks for public health programs.
  • Synthesized information on processes used by health organizations to select best practices.
  • Developed a framework based on identified evaluation criteria.

Main Results:

  • Defined best practice as an intervention with proven effectiveness and replicability.
  • Proposed an evaluation framework considering context, process, and outcomes.
  • Identified eight key criteria for best practices: relevance, community participation, stakeholder collaboration, ethical soundness, replicability, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability.

Conclusions:

  • A standardized framework for selecting best practices will improve the usefulness and credibility of practice-based evidence.
  • Standardization ensures fair and comparable selection processes across agencies.
  • This framework aims to elevate practice-based evidence to the same level of credibility as research-based evidence.
