Abstract
Background
Sleep disturbance, state anxiety, and cognitive complaints (CCs) have been recognized as important issues in public health. Although the mediating role of CCs has been proposed, their role in the relationships between sleep disturbance, state anxiety, and subjective well-being (SWB) and subjective ill-being (SIB) are not yet fully understood. This study used path analyses to investigate whether CCs mediate these relationships.

Methods
The study recruited 523 Japanese adult volunteers using convenience sampling. Participants completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, State–Trait Anxiety Inventory (Form Y), Cognitive Complaints in Bipolar Disorder Rating Assessment, and Subjective Well-Being Inventory to evaluate sleep disturbance, state anxiety, CCs, and SWB and SIB, respectively. Path analyses were conducted to assess the mediating effects of CCs.

Results
The path analyses showed significant indirect associations of sleep disturbance and state anxiety with SWB (p = 0.024 and p = 0.012) and SIB (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001), respectively, mediated by CCs. Furthermore, there were significant indirect associations of sleep disturbance with CCs (p < 0.001), SWB (p < 0.001), and SIB (p < 0.001), via state anxiety, respectively.

Conclusions
This study suggests that CCs mediate the associations of sleep disturbance and state anxiety with SWB and SIB, respectively, in adult community volunteers. To address SWB and SIB associated with sleep disturbance and state anxiety, evaluating CCs may be useful in public mental health. Our findings will encourage health care workers to assess CCs more systematically. Future studies may need to target CCs to develop interventions for SWB and SIB.

Abstract
Background
Personal last wishes of people facing a life-limiting illness may change closer to death and may vary across different forms of specialist palliative care (SPC).

Aims
To explore the presence and common themes of last wishes over time and according to the SPC settings (inpatient vs. home-based SPC), and to identify factors associated to having a last wish.

Methods
Patients enrolled in a longitudinal study completed questionnaires at the onset (baseline, t0) and within the first 6 weeks (follow-up, t1) of SPC including an open-ended question on their personal last wishes. Last wishes were content analyzed, and all wishes were coded for presence or absence of each of the identified themes. Changes of last wishes (t0-t1) were analyzed by a McNemar test. The chi-square-test was used to compare the two SPC settings. Predictors for the presence of a last wish were identified by logistic regression analysis.

Results
Three hundred sixty-one patients (mean age, 69.5 years; 49% female) answered at t0, and 130 at t1. In cross-sectional analyses, the presence of last wishes was higher at t0 (67%) than at t1 (59%). Comparisons revealed a higher presence of last wishes among inpatients than those in home-based SPC at t0 (78% vs. 62%; p = .002), but not at t1. Inpatient SPC (OR = 1.987, p = .011) and greater physical symptom burden over the past week (OR = 1.168, p < .001) predicted presence of a last wish at t0. Common themes of last wishes were Travel, Activities, Regaining health, Quality of life, Being with family and friends, Dying comfortably, Turn back time, and Taking care of final matters. The most frequent theme was Travel, at both t0 (31%) and t1 (39%). Themes did not differ between SPC settings, neither at t0 nor at t1. Longitudinal analyses (t0-t1) showed no significant intra-personal changes in the presence or any themes of last wishes over time.

Conclusions
In this late phase of their illness, many patients voiced last wishes. Our study suggests working with such wishes as a framework for person-centered care. Comparisons of SPC settings indicate that individualized approaches to patients’ last wishes, rather than setting-specific approaches, may be important.

Abstract
Objectives
Research suggests palliative care to be translated and integrated in non-specialized palliative care services throughout the palliative care continuum across populations and settings. A need has been identified to build on the existing research literature in order to design strong knowledge translation strategies that can be evaluated in future research. The aim was to map strategies for knowledge translation of a palliative approach to care into non-specialized palliative care services for adult patients. The objectives were to explore the primary research activities, the specific type of knowledge translation strategies used, the research designs and study settings for such evaluations along with the major results thereof, and to identify major research gaps in this area.

Methods
A scoping review was performed to map the volume and characteristics of research literature (project registered in PROSPERO #2018 CRD42018100663). The ten-year period 2010 to 2019 was searched in six major databases for original articles published in English in which the knowledge translation of a palliative approach for adult patients was evaluated in non-specialized palliative healthcare settings, and all type of empirical data-based research designs. We excluded non-English, non-empirical articles, non-evaluation of knowledge translations, specialized palliative care settings, and other types of publications (i.e. non-original articles).

Results
Most of the 183 included articles focused on patients with cancer who were dying in hospitals and in high income countries. Only 13 articles focused on early palliative care. A palette of different strategies was used to implement palliative care in non-specialist palliative settings; no strategy was identified as outstanding. The majority of the articles had unspecified essential components of the research designs.

Conclusion
Previous suggestions for utilization of implementation science for knowledge translation of a palliative approach to care into non-specialized palliative care services are confirmed, and established knowledge translation theories can strengthen the field. To advance this specific field of knowledge, meticulously detailed reporting of studies is required as related to research designs, clarifications of contextual influences and mechanisms at work. Specific systematic reviews and meta-syntheses in the field are merited.

Published: March 2022

Abstract
Background
Feedback is essential to medical education. Although the need for effective feedback delivery is well known, more recent focus is on understanding and strengthening the faculty-trainee relationship within which the feedback process is carried out. The authors developed and implemented a combined resident-faculty feedback workshop within a psychiatry residency training program to enhance participants’ understanding of challenges residents and faculty experience with the feedback process.

Methods
The one-hour workshop consisted of small group activities and large group discussions, focused on (i) feedback challenges for both residents and faculty and (ii) potential ways to address identified challenges. Participants completed pre-and post-workshop questionnaires to rate their level of understanding of, and answer open-ended questions regarding, feedback challenges. Mixed-methods assessment of questionnaire responses examined quantitative rating changes from pre- to post-workshop, as well as emergent qualitative themes from the open-ended responses.

Results
From a pool of 30 workshop participants, 26 completed each of the pre- and post-workshop questionnaires. Overall, participants were satisfied with the programming. Important considerations for the feedback process were (i) specific/constructive/timely feedback, (ii) meeting logistical/administrative feedback requirements, (iii) setting norms/expectations of effective/routine feedback, and (iv) relational/emotional considerations surrounding feedback. It appeared both faculty and residents were able to increase perspective taking about how the other group perceived the feedback process.

Conclusions
This pilot project is one of the first to examine a joint resident-faculty workshop focused on understanding how faculty and residents can interact to better understand each other’s perspective on the feedback process. Further work in this area is needed to identify common misperceptions and design programming to help correct them. Further research is also needed to examine the impact of such programming on the feedback process.

Published: March 2022

Abstract
Background
Understanding the hospital EHR success rate has great benefits for hospitals. The present study aimed to 1-Propose an extended-ISSM framework and a questionnaire in a systematic manner for EHR evaluation based on nurses’ perspectives, 2-Determine the EHR success rate, and 3-Explore the effective factors contributing to EHR success.

Methods
The proposed framework was developed using ISSM, TAM3, TTF, HOT-FIT, and literature review in seven steps. A self-administrated structured 65-items questionnaire was developed with CVI: 90.27% and CVR: 94.34%. Construct validity was conducted using EFA and CFA. Eleven factors were identified, collectively accounting for 71.4% of the total variance. In the EFA step, 15 questions and two questions in EFA were excluded. Finally, 48 items remained in the framework including dimensions of technology, human, organization, ease of use, usefulness, and net benefits. The overall Cronbach’s alpha value was 93.4%. In addition, the hospital EHR success rate was determined and categorized. In addition, effective factors on EHR success were explored.

Results
In total, 86 nurses participated in the study. On average, the “total hospital EHR success rate” was moderate. The total EHR success rates was ranging from 47.09 to 74.96%. The results of the Kruskal–Wallis test showed that there was a significant relationship between “gender” and “self-efficacy” (p-value: 0.042). A reverse relation between “years of experience using computers” and “training” (p-value: 0.012) was observed. “Years of experience using EHR” as well as “education level” (p-value: 0.001) and “ease of use” had a reverse relationship (p-value: 0.034).

Conclusions
Our findings underscore the EHR success based on nurses’ viewpoint in a developing country. Our results provide an instrument for comparison of EHR success rates in various hospitals.
Preceptors’ and nursing students’ experiences of using peer learning in primary healthcare settings: a qualitative study
Authors: Jassim Taghrid , Carlson Elisabeth , Bengtsson Mariette 
Published: March 2022

AbstractBackgroundDue to the need for students to integrate theory with practice, current research seeks the best learning and teaching models in primary healthcare settings. The aim of this study was to explore preceptors’ and nursing students’ experiences of using peer learning during clinical practice in primary health care.MethodsA qualitative research approach was used based on semi-structured interviews with seven preceptors and ten nursing students. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed by using content analysis based on an inductive reasoning.ResultsPreceptors and students perceived peer learning as an educational model to be beneficial for learning in primary care settings. They found the model to be stimulating, challenging, and leading to development of professional identity and nursing skills. All informants were positive towards the peer learning experience, with students reporting they were seen as individuals, despite working in pairs. However, the physical environment was demanding with regards to telephone counseling issues, limited opportunities for using computers, and the use of small examination rooms.ConclusionThis study shows that, despite the complex learning environment, peer learning as an educational model appears to work well in a primary healthcare setting. However, much improvement is needed to facilitate the students’ learning process. Consequently, conditions for clinical practice and learning beneficial to both students and preceptors should be prioritized by management.
Co-designing a community pharmacy pharmacogenomics testing service in the UK
Authors: Rendell Tim , Barnett Julie , Wright David 
Published: March 2022

Abstract
Introduction
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing services have been delivered through community pharmacies across the globe, though not yet in the UK. This paper is reporting a focus group study, the first stage of a participatory co-design process to increase the chance of a successful implementation of a PGx service through community pharmacy in the UK.

Aim
To identify the barriers and enablers to implementing a community pharmacy based PGx service in the UK.

Method
Three focus groups were conducted with community pharmacists (n = 10), prescribers (n = 8) and patients (n = 8) in England. The focus groups were recorded, transcribed and thematically analysed using the Braun and Clarke six phase reflexive thematic analysis approach.

Results
The analysis identified five themes about PGx testing in community pharmacies: (1) In- principle receptiveness, (2) Appreciation of the benefits, (3) Lack of implementation resources (4) Ambiguity about implications for implementation and (5) Interprofessional relationship challenges.

Conclusion
The identified enablers for implementation of a PGx service were at a macro health system strategic level; the concerns were more at a granular operational procedural level. Overall receptiveness was noted by all three participant groups, and both prescriber and pharmacist groups appreciated the potential benefits for patients and the healthcare system. Prior to implementation in the UK, there is a need to disambiguate health professional’s concerns of the guidance, resources, and knowledge required to set up and deliver the service and to resolve patient concerns about the nature of genomics.
The development and psychometric evaluation of COVID-19 staff questionnaire for infectious disease outbreak readiness and preparedness (SQIDORP)
Authors: Jokwiro Yangama , Urbanavicius Tracy , Robinson Ainsley M. , Scott Cathy , Islam Md Rafiqul 
Published: March 2022

Abstract
Background
The COVID-19 pandemic has inundated the capacity of hospitals across the globe, exhausting resources, and placing extreme burden on health care workers (HCWs). Hospital preparedness during infectious disease outbreak involves development and implementation of appropriate strategies, procedures, and adequate training for HCWs. Reliable and valid tools to evaluate the perception of HCWs on the effectiveness of hospital preparedness strategies are imperative and literature is yet to fill that gap.

Methods
Items for ‘The Staff Questionnaire for Infectious Disease Outbreak Readiness and Preparedness (SQIDORP)’ were selected from literature that addressed hospital preparedness during novel pandemic outbreaks. The SQIDORP was distributed within a regional hospital in Victoria, Australia. Psychometric evaluation included estimates of reliability and factor analysis while factors associated with the questionnaire were explored using regression analysis.

Results
Omega coefficient of 0.89, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.88 and item-total correlations (> 0.3) indicated adequate reliability of the SQIDORP. Factor Analysis yielded three meaningful latent factors that are effectiveness of training (Factor 1), self-confidence (Factor 2) and risk to self and stress (Factor 3). Demographic factors did not influence the correlation with SQIDORP. However, rating ‘the current plan for management of COVID-19 in your ward’ and ‘personal knowledge/skills in caring for patients with COVID-19’ had significant positive correlation and accounted for 33% of the variance in readiness and preparedness using SQIDORP (R2 = 0.33, F = 10.227, P < 0.001).

Conclusion
Most of the items of SQIDORP questionnaire achieved adequate internal consistence reliability. This is a valuable tool that can be utilized by hospitals to explore aspects of preparedness and give insights to the knowledge, skills, and mental health of HCWs, as perceived by the HCW themselves.

Abstract
Background
Hypertension is a public health issue in Ethiopia. The vast majority of cases remain undiagnosed and untreated. Early and accurate identification of hypertension can help with timely management and reduce the risk of complications. In resource-constrained rural settings where poor access to care and a shortage of healthcare providers are major barriers, task-sharing of some primary healthcare duties from well-trained healthcare workers to community health workers has been found to be a cost-effective strategy. This study aimed to assess the ability of trained health extension workers to correctly identify high blood pressure among adults in rural areas of northwest Ethiopia.

Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted in rural areas of northwest Ethiopia from June to October 2020. Trained health extension workers and health professionals measured the blood pressure of 1177 study participants using a calibrated aneroid sphygmomanometer. A Kappa test statistic was used to compare the two sets of measurements for agreement. The sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values were used to assess the validity of health extension workers’ ability to identify high blood pressure in comparison to health professionals.

Results
The trained health extension workers and health professionals identified 219 (18.6%) and 229 (19.5%) of the participants with high blood pressure, respectively. The inter-rater agreement between health extension workers and health professionals for high blood pressure detection was 91.2% (k = 0.912, 95% CI: 0.88, 0.94, p-value = 0.000). The sensitivity and specificity of high blood pressure detection by health extension workers were 90.8% (95% CI: 89.6, 92.0) and 98.8% (95% CI: 98.1, 99.5), respectively. While the positive and negative predictive values were 95.0% (95% CI: 92.1, 97.9) and 97.8% (95% CI: 97.3, 98.3), respectively.

Conclusions
The inter-rater agreement between the trained health extension workers and health professionals on high blood pressure detection was excellent. The findings indicate that training health extension workers is a reliable and valid strategy for early detection of hypertension. Thus, the strategy can be integrated with the essential services provided by primary health care units at the village and health post level in rural settings.

Abstract
Background
To elucidate the influence of childhood asthma on adult height after consideration of genetic heterogeneity in height.

Methods
Based on the UK Biobank, we conducted a matched cohort study, including 13,602 European individuals with asthma diagnosed before 18 years old and 136,008 matched unexposed individuals without such an experience. Ascertainment of asthma was based on self-reported data (97.6%) or clinical diagnosis in healthcare registers (2.4%). We studied three height outcomes, including (1) the attained adult height (in centimeters), (2) the height deviation measured as the difference between a person’s rank of genetically determined height (based on generated polygenetic risk score) and their rank of attained adult height in the study population (deviation in % of height order after standardization), and (3) the presence of height deficit comparing genetically determined and attained height (yes or no). We applied linear mixed-effect models to assess the associations of asthma diagnosed at different ages with attained adult height and height deviation, and conditional logistic regression models to estimate the associations of asthma with the risk of height deficit.

Results
40.07% (59,944/149,610) of the study participants were born before 1950, and most of them were men (57.65%). After controlling for multiple covariates, childhood asthma was associated with shorter attained adult height, irrespective of age at asthma diagnosis. However, in the analysis of height deviation (deviation in %), we observed the greatest height deviation among individuals with asthma diagnosed before 4 years of age (− 2.57 [95% CI − 4.14 to − 1.00] and − 2.80 [95% CI − 4.06 to − 1.54] for the age of ≤ 2 and 3–4 years, respectively). The magnitude of height deviation in relation to asthma declined thereafter and became null after age 6. Similarly, there was a statistically significant height deficit in relation to an asthma diagnosis at ages ≤ 2 and 3–4 (odds ratios = 1.21, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.40, and 1.15, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.29) but not thereafter. The result pattern was similar when separately analyzing asthma with or without inhaled glucocorticoid (ICS) use, despite that the estimates were consistently stronger among asthma individuals who used ICS.

Conclusions
Our results suggest a notable association of childhood asthma, primarily asthma diagnosed at an early age, with adult height, after consideration of genetic heterogeneity in height and use of ICS. This finding highlights the need for surveillance on the growth problems among children with asthma.
