Implementation of spirometry screening for post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) among adolescents and adults enrolled within the National Tuberculosis Control Program of Carmelo Hospital in Chókwè District, Mozambique: A hybrid type III effectiveness-implementation study protocol

BackgroundDespite receiving adequate treatment, many tuberculosis (TB) survivors are left with post-tuberculosis complications, possibly due to lung tissue damage incurred during the active period of the disease. Current TB programs worldwide deliver quality care throughout the course of active TB treatment, yet often fail to provide organized follow-up once treatment ends. Post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) is a prominent, yet underrecognized cause of chronic lung disease, managed similarly to chronic respiratory diseases with pharmacotherapy and/or personalized pulmonary rehabilitation interventions. Basic pulmonary rehabilitation packages for people finishing TB treatment are still lacking in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We offer a study protocol to evaluate the implementation of spirometry and symptom screening for PTLD among people who have completed TB treatment in a rural district in Mozambique.MethodsThe overall objective of this study is to evaluate the introduction of a new screening program that utilizes symptom screening and spirometry for diagnosing PTLD among adolescents and adults that have completed TB treatment. This research protocol consists of three complementary components: 1) assessing the prevalence of PTLD among patients enrolled in the National TB Control Program (NTCP) at Carmelo Hospital (CHC) in Chókwè District, Mozambique; 2) evaluating anticipated implementation outcomes through the identification of the site-, provider-, and individual-level determinants that either facilitate or hinder the successful adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the spirometry screening program, and 3) evaluating the real-time implementation outcomes/processes in order to provide practical evidence-based key indicators of successful implementation of the spirometry screening program.DiscussionProviding well-organized, evidence-based care for individuals with a history of TB who are experiencing symptoms of PTLD can relieve chronic respiratory issues, enhance quality of life, and potentially lower the risk of further pulmonary infections, including recurrent TB. However, there is a significant gap in the literature regarding the implementation of best practices of HIV and TB health services delivery. Addressing this gap could assist Mozambique in improving diagnosis, treatment, and continuity of care for people formerly living with TB. The insights from this study will help decision-makers improve spirometry screening coverage, enhance intervention effectiveness, and translate our findings to evidence-based programming.Trial registrationISRCTN92021748 retrospectively registered.

Cascade of care for substance use and mental health disorders for justice-involved populations

IntroductionJustice-involved populations have dramatically higher rates of substance use disorders (SUD) and mental health disorders (MHD) compared to the general population. Despite high rates of SUD and MHD, treatment for this population is often limited and not evidence-based. The cascade of care model estimates drop-offs in the continuum of care from screening to identification of need, referral, care initiation, care engagement, and care completion. Recently, healthcare providers have utilized the cascade of care to improve the continuity of care for people with SUD and MHD in justice settings. The purpose of the current study is to 1) identify typologies that explain the proportion of new intakes that pass through each level of the cascade of care for SUD and MHD, and 2) describe agency-level factors that predict typology assignments and agency ability to assess client flow through the levels of the care cascade. MethodUsing Latent Class Analysis, we classify 791 agencies serving justice-involved individuals into typologies according to utilization of each stage in the mental health and substance cascades of care. Then, we examined county and agency characteristics that affect three stages of the cascade process: identification of need for behavioral health services, referrals to appropriate services, and treatment initiation. We build on previous work by exploring these patterns for both SUD and MHD treatment. ResultsThe study identified four SUD/MHD treatment patterns: Low Access, SUD-Focused, High Need-High Access, and Lower Need-High Access classes. Factors influencing typology alignment include location, specialized staff availability, warm hand-off coordination, Medicaid reimbursement, and performance measure tracking. Thirty-nine percent (39 %) of agencies could not be classified because they were unable to report their rate of care along the cascade measures. ConclusionFocusing on factors influencing typology assignment can help counties in assessing service delivery, identifying barriers, and targeting areas for improvements in policies and practices, potentially facilitating long-term changes and overall improvement in the care of individuals with mental health and substance use disorders. Identification of these factors and typologies can improve mental health treatment and access in counties and agencies with large resource barriers or limited attention to mental health treatment.

When Medication Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder Gets Disrupted by Extra-Clinical Variables, How Should Clinicians Respond?

Structural and systemic discrimination against people with substance use disorder is pervasive. Clinicians caring for patients receiving medications for opioid use disorders (MOUDs) should plan for possible disruptions of treatment caused by arrests and pretrial confinement in jails. This case commentary suggests that harms caused by such treatment disruption can be mitigated by clinicians who take some of the practical approaches outlined in this commentary to better preserve continuity of care for people receiving MOUD.

Data to Care Pilot Program in Chicago: Experience, Outcomes, and Direction for the Future.

Data to Care (D2C) involves sharing HIV surveillance data between health care facilities and health departments to improve continuity of care for people living with HIV (PLWH). The Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) initiated a D2C pilot program at the University of Chicago Medicine (UCM) from June 2016 to September 2019. To describe the proportion of patients reported by UCM as not in care who were able to be matched to CDPH enhanced HIV/AIDS Reporting System (eHARS) and to report the individual-level factors associated with matching and viral suppression. Retrospective program evaluation. UCM, an academic health care center that provides HIV care to adults via a Ryan White clinic on the south side of Chicago. Adult PLWH who had received care at UCM but did not have current documented HIV care visit(s). Proportion of matched patients; factors associated with matching and viral suppression. Overall, 72.4% (n = 813/1123) of patients reported by UCM were matched by CDPH to eHARS. Individuals aged 40 to 49 years (odds ratio [OR] = 1.99; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-3.62), 50 to 59 years (OR = 2.47; 95% CI, 1.37-4.47), and 60 years or older (OR = 6.18; 95% CI, 3.18-12.32) were more likely to match in eHARS. People who lived outside of Chicago (OR = 0.09; 95% CI, 0.05-0.15) or with unknown zip codes (OR = 0.08; 95% CI, 0.05-0.12) were less likely to match. Men who have sex with men and persons older than 50 years were more likely to be virally suppressed. D2C is an evidence-based strategy for reengagement of PLWH; however, program implementation relies on successful data matching. We found that a large proportion of patients from UCM were not matched, particularly those who were younger or lived outside of Chicago. Additional research is needed to understand ways to improve data matching to facilitate reengagement in HIV care.

Mechanisms and benefits of cardiac rehabilitation in individuals with stroke: emerging role of its impact on improving cardiovascular and neurovascular health.

Human and animal studies have demonstrated the mechanisms and benefits of aerobic exercise for both cardiovascular and neurovascular health. Aerobic exercise induces neuroplasticity and neurophysiologic reorganization of brain networks, improves cerebral blood flow, and increases whole-body VO2peak (peak oxygen consumption). The effectiveness of a structured cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program is well established and a vital part of the continuum of care for people with cardiovascular disease. Individuals post stroke exhibit decreased cardiovascular capacity which impacts their neurologic recovery and extends disability. Stroke survivors share the same risk factors as patients with cardiac disease and can therefore benefit significantly from a comprehensive CR program in addition to neurorehabilitation to address their cardiovascular health. The inclusion of individuals with stroke into a CR program, with appropriate adaptations, can significantly improve their cardiovascular health, promote functional recovery, and reduce future cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events thereby reducing the economic burden of stroke.

Navigating Chronic Disease Management with Digital Healthcare Solutions amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Literature Review

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to critically evaluate data collected from various studies on Chronic Disease Management during the COVID-19 pandemic and the emergence of Digital Healthcare as a means of providing innovative approaches to manage chronic diseases. Methodology: A systematic literature review was applied. Studies were found after a search in the Pubmed database with no publication date time limit, given that COVID–19 emerged in 2019. A Prisma diagram was created to record the way and the criteria by which we included and excluded studies for our research. Out of the 567 records identified through various sources 85 were used for a qualitative synthesis. Results: During the first wave of the pandemic, a significant reduction or complete cancellation of scheduled health appointments was observed. Shortages of medication used to manage chronic conditions were also observed at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic due to global supply chain disruptions. Governments acted rapidly at the beginning of the pandemic to promote the use of teleconsultations by introducing enabling legislation and revising laws ensuring continuity of care for people with chronic diseases, thus transitioning rapidly to remote care and monitoring. Conclusion: Telemedicine and involving community pharmacists in chronic patient management are key for sustained adherence. Long-term policies are vital to prevent pandemic-driven health disparities. Lessons should be derived for future preparedness, managing subsequent waves, and ensuring testing in primary care.

Providing continuity of care for people living with noncommunicable diseases in humanitarian settings: A qualitative study of health actors' experiences in Lebanon

ObjectiveThe burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is increasing among populations living in humanitarian settings. Continuity of care (CoC) involves following an individual over time and across different levels of healthcare (management, longitudinal, informational and interpersonal continuity); it is an essential component of good quality, person-centred NCD care. Providing CoC is particularly challenging in humanitarian crises where health care access may be interrupted or restricted. This paper aimed to explore health actors’ experiences of continuity of hypertension and diabetes care for Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese in Lebanon. MethodsWe conducted 20 in-depth qualitative interviews with health actors, including eleven with health care providers at four urban-based health facilities supported by international humanitarian agencies that provide NCD care to Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese, one representative of a governmental institution, one international delegate and seven humanitarian actors. Thematic analysis, combining inductive and deductive approaches, was guided by a conceptual framework for NCD models of care in humanitarian settings. We reported our findings against the conceptual framework's domains relating to health system inputs and intermediate goals, reflecting on their impact on the domains of CoC. FindingsExisting health system weaknesses and novel challenges (the economic crisis, COVID-19 pandemic and Beirut blast) to continuity of NCD care were identified. Health system input challenges: governance and financing (weakened governance, limited central financing, historical dependence on local NGOs for primary healthcare, a dominant private sector), health workforce (exodus of health care providers from the public system), inconsistent medicines and equipment supplies, and limited health information systems (no unified system across institutions or levels of care, lack of formal referral systems, and inconsistent facility-level data collection) contributed to limited public primary care, poorly integrated within a fragile, pluralistic health system. These factors negatively impacted the intermediate health system goals of access, standardisation and quality of NCD care for Syrian refugee and Lebanese patients, and collectively hampered the management, longitudinal, informational and interpersonal continuity of NCD care in Lebanon. ConclusionWe recommend that humanitarian actors continue the work underway with the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health to align with and strengthen health system inputs, including supporting health governance through the accreditation process, exploring new funding mechanisms, strengthening the workforce via task sharing and training, supporting the medication supply chain, improving access to facilities and service quality, and supporting the development, standardisation and interoperability of referral and information systems. In combination, these elements will support better CoC for people living with hypertension and diabetes in Lebanon.

Barriers and Facilitators of Early Palliative Care in the Trajectory of People Living with Chronic Condition: A Mini Review Using Socio-ecological Framework to Inform Public Health Strategy.

The increasing incidence of chronic conditions on a global scale requires a comprehensive approach to palliative care, which is recognized as an essential element of the continuum of care for people with life-threatening conditions. It has been argued that the integration of early palliative care for people with chronic conditions is beneficial. Nevertheless, barriers to integrating early palliative care have been extensively not reviewed. This review aimed to explore the barriers and facilitators of integrating early palliative care for people living with chronic conditions, employing a socio-ecological framework to provide a critical understanding of the influencing factors at multiple levels. The method was a mini review. This review emphasizes the complex and diverse factors that either hinder or facilitate progress in four areas: individual (such as gaps in knowledge and emotional reactions), interpersonal (such as support from family caregiver), healthcare professionals and policy (such as barriers in education, guidelines, and collaboration among professionals), and community (such as societal knowledge and attitudes). Each level presents unique challenges and opportunities for enhancing early palliative care integration, from addressing misconceptions and fears at the individual level, to fostering supportive policies and community awareness. In conclusion, the effective management of early palliative care requires a comprehensive strategy that spans various dimensions, including educational initiatives, policy adjustments, and active involvements of the community. Healthcare systems are supposed to enhance the integration of early palliative care into the trajectory of chronic conditions and enhance the quality of life of affected persons and their families by recognizing and addressing the socio-ecological elements involved.

Understanding Certified Peer Recovery Specialists: The Essence is Connection

ABSTRACT As peer recovery specialists become more essential members of the continuum of care for people who use substances, gaps exist in our understanding of peers. This study tried to understand what attracted people to become Certified Peer Recovery Specialists, how they transitioned to embrace the approach, and how they stayed true to the model as it may not align with their personal recovery pathway. This qualitative study consisted of in-depth interviews with Certified Peer Recovery Specialists (n = 18) and thematic analysis of those interviews. One overarching theme was the importance of connection in all aspects of peer work. Regardless of their initial reactions, all participants reported buying into the multiple pathways and person-centered approach by the completion of the certification process. Peers also described an appreciation for the structures of support provided by agencies such as supervision to maintain fidelity to the model.

Safe Supply In The Midst of a Crisis of Unregulated Toxic Drug Deaths - A Commentary on Roberts and Humphreys (2023).

Safe supply is an effective intervention conceptualized by people who use drugs to reduce drug toxicity deaths from the contaminated unregulated drug supply and improve the quality of life among people who use drugs during one of the deadliest but ignored public health crises. There are various forms of safe supply that have been around for decades with a wealth of evidence-based literature such as heroin assisted treatment but in this response to a commentary by Roberts and Humphreys we are focused on medicalized safe supply which is only available in a clinical setting and is available in most regions in Canada. A licensed healthcare professional assesses potential patients and, if indicated, will prescribe pharmaceutical drugs to those most at risk of experiencing drug related harms such as toxic drug death, contracting HIV and Hepatitis C, developing injection related infections, and other health and social issues. We believe that Roberts and Humphreys misunderstand the role of safe supply and hope this response articulates its importance in the continuum of care for people who use drugs.

Vulnerability of the HIV cascade of care in an Amazonian town: A qualitative study.

The HIV care cascade spans from diagnosis to patient linkage and retention in health services for treatment. Brazil has made substantial efforts to optimize the cascade of care. However, despite these advances, there are striking regional differences and difficulties from testing to treatment, particularly in the north and northeast regions, often reflecting social inequalities. Oiapoque, a highly affected city in the state of Amapá, shares its borders with an overseas European territory-French Guiana. The objective of this study was to get a clearer picture of the different components of the HIV care cascade in the municipality of Oiapoque. The study was exploratory and qualitative, involving the mapping of health structures in the research area and interviews with the responsible healthcare professionals working in the municipality. Patients are vulnerable at several levels, including mobility limitations, mismatched information that affects the linkage and retention of treatment, an absence of infectious disease doctors, an absence of user autonomy, missed appointments, dropouts, and abandonment of care. We found that the five recommended steps in the continuum of care for people living with HIV all had weak points or were non-existent or unavailable. These results will be fundamental to rethink the municipality's actions and the strategies of the Unified Health System SUS for the HIV epidemic in these border regions of the Amazon.

Incipient dementia and avoidable hospital admission in persons with osteoarthritis

ObjectiveTo investigate the associations between incipient dementia (ID) and hospitalization for ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs) among people with osteoarthritis (OA) of the peripheral joints. MethodsAmong individuals aged 51–99 years residing in Skåne, Sweden, in 2009, we identified those with a doctor-diagnosed OA and no dementia during 1998–2009 (n ​= ​57,733). Treating ID as a time-varying exposure, we followed people from January 1, 2010 or their 60th birthday (whichever occurred last) until hospitalization for ACSCs, death, 100th birthday, relocation outside Skåne, or December 31, 2019 (whichever occurred first). Using age as time scale, we applied flexible parametric survival models, adjusted for confounders, to assess the associations between ID and hospitalization for ACSCs. ResultsThere were 58 and 33 hospitalizations for ACSCs per 1000 person-years among OA people with and without ID, respectively. The association between ID and hospitalization for any ACSCs was age-dependent with higher risk in ages<86 years and lower risks in older ages. Between ages 60 and 100 years, persons with ID had, on average, 5.8 (95% CI 0.9, 10.7), 1.6 (−2.6, 5.9) and 3.1 (2.3, 4.0) fewer hospital-free years for any, chronic and acute ACSCs, respectively, compared with persons without ID. ConclusionsAmong persons with OA, while ID was associated with increased risks of hospitalization for ACSCs in younger ages, it was associated with decreased risk in oldest ages. These results suggest the need for improvement in quality of ambulatory care including the continuity of care for people with OA having dementia.

Achieving the UNAIDS goals by 2030 in people living with HIV: A simulation model to support the prioritization of health care interventions

ObjectiveWe simulated the impact of implementing different health interventions to improve the HIV continuum of care for people diagnosed, on treatment, and virologically suppressed in Spain for the 2020–2030 period. MethodsThe model was carried out in four phases involving a multidisciplinary expert panel: (1) literature review; (2) selection/definition of the interventions and their effectiveness; (3) consensus meeting; and (4) development of an analytical decision model to project the impact of implementing/strengthening these interventions to improve the HIV continuum of care, corresponding to 2017–2019 (87% diagnosed, 97% on treatment, 90% with viral suppression), through the creation of different scenarios for 2020–2030. A total of 19 interventions were selected based on expanding the offer of HIV rapid tests and implementing training/peer programmes, electronic alerts, multidisciplinary care, and mHealth, among others. The effectiveness of the interventions was defined by the percentage increases in diagnosis, treatment, and viral suppression after their implementation, targeting the entire population and specific groups at high-risk (men who have sex with men, migrants, female sex workers, transgender people, and people who inject drugs). ResultsImplementing eight interventions for diagnosis, three for treatment, and eight for viral suppression for the target populations during 2020–2030 would increase the continuum of care to approximately 100% diagnosed (remaining residual undetectable cases), 98% treated, and 96% virologically suppressed. ConclusionsPlanification, prioritization, and implementation of selected interventions based on the current HIV continuum of care could allow achievement of the 95-95-95 UNAIDS goals in Spain by 2030.

PS-P06-1: REDUCED HEALTHCARE UTILIZATION AMONG PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC DISEASES DURING THE PANDEMIC

Objective: Public-health strategies resorted to world-wide, to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 impacted the healthcare-utilization of people with pre-existing chronic diseases. We aimed to assess the healthcare utilization, patient-experiences and economic impacts among people with chronic diseases due to COVID-19 pandemic. Design and Methods: An online survey was conducted in 2021 involving 449 adults living in the Western-Province of Sri Lanka. Data on participants socio-demographic and economic status, co-morbidities, healthcare utilization, and healthcare-seeking behaviours were collected using a pre-tested questionnaire. The questionnaire link was distributed through social media and by emails. Categorical data were expressed as proportions/percentages with 95% confidence intervals where relevant. Quantitative data, normally distributed, were summarized in terms of mean and standard deviation (SD) and non-normally distributed as the median and interquartile-range (IQR). Results: 449 respondents completed the survey. Majority (55%) responded that they experienced a negative impact on their main income. 26%(n = 115) mentioned that they had a doctor-diagnosed chronic disease or a disability and of them 72% (n = 83) were on regular medication. Nearly half (n = 55;48%) mentioned that there was a delay in seeking healthcare during the pandemic and 27% (n = 30)reported not having sought treatment during the lockdown period. Of the people with delayed healthcare seeking 25% had hypertension, 16% diabetes, and 12.2% asthma. Considering care seeking pattern among people with chronic illness, it declined in all institutions during the lockdown period. However careseeking in the private sector, only margially declined during the pandemic. Considering care seeking at a government hospital, a drastic drop was observed during the lockdown period (n = 13; = 11.3%). Of the respondents who sought healthcare for chronic illness during the pandemic in lockdown (n = 85; 74%) and no-lock down (n = 107; 93%), a considerable proportion mentioned that clinics were either not functioning on time or not functioning at all. Although the majority agreed that their perceived health despite the chronic illness was good, very good, or excellent, around 38% reported it as fair or poor. Conclusion: Health-care utilization among people with a chronic disease reduced due to supply and demand driven factors in healthcare. Efforts are necessary to ensure continuity of care for people with chronic disease to prevent complications. The government needs to invest in resilient health systems to be better equipped to provide uninterrupted care for NCDs in any circumstances. To support this, primary healthcare strengthening and tele-health options should be explored.

Physiotherapist perceptions on rehabilitation services digitalization

Digital health solutions have experienced an essential expansion during the COVID-19 pandemic. Digitization contributes to ensuring the continuity of care for people and offers the possibility of more accessible access to information related to the patient, facilitates communication and can be a way to provide medical services through telemedicine. This work aims to identify the potential of the digitization of physiotherapy services. 17 physiotherapists from Romania completed a questionnaire with ten items. The results showed that although physiotherapists consider themselves prepared for computer systems, their use in medical practice mainly relates to communication with colleagues and other medical specialties.

Funcionamento do prontuário eletrônico do cidadão no sistema prisional

Abstract This paper aimed to describe the implementation and operation of the e-SUS AB strategy in the Prison Primary Care Teams in Paraíba. A qualitative study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with 21 professionals, doctors, and nurses, from 11 primary care teams in prisons in Paraíba and the health management of the Penitentiary Administration Secretariat. A semi-structured roadmap was adopted for the interviews from the script previously established by the Ministry of Health for the implementation of the e-SUS AB system, which resulted in three thematic categories after being transcribed and analyzed per Bardin’s content analysis proposal: the health information system and the prison setting; management actions for the implementation of the e-SUS AB and; skills and competencies of professionals to use the e-SUS AB system. The e-SUS AB was implemented in the prison system with some obstacles concerning the physical and technological structure of the setting, the insufficient professional training, and the lack of skills with information technologies highlighted by the respondents. People feel the need to implement the citizen’s electronic medical records to ensure continuity of care for people deprived of liberty.
