- Impact of medication reconciliation for improving transitions of care
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Aug-2018
Transitional care provides for the continuity of care as patients move between different stages and settings of care. Medication discrepancies arising at care transitions have been reported as prevalent and are linked with adverse drug events (ADEs) (e.g. - Impact of morphine, fentanyl, oxycodone or codeine on patient consciousness, appetite and thirst when used to treat cancer pain
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-May-2019
There is increasing focus on providing high quality care for people at the end of life, irrespective of disease or cause, and in all settings. In the last ten years the use of care pathways to aid those treating patients at the end of life has become comm - Impact of public release of performance data on the behaviour of healthcare consumers and providers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Sep-2018
It is becoming increasingly common to publish information about the quality and performance of healthcare organisations and individual professionals. However, we do not know how this information is used, or the extent to which such reporting leads to qual - Impact of the diagnostic test Xpert MTB/RIF on patient outcomes for tuberculosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-May-2021
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends Xpert MTB/RIF in place of smear microscopy to diagnose tuberculosis (TB), and many countries have adopted it into their diagnostic algorithms. However, it is not clear whether the greater accuracy of the test - Impact of tobacco advertising and promotion on increasing adolescent smoking behaviours
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Oct-2011
The tobacco industry denies that their marketing is targeted at young nonsmokers, but it seems more probable that tobacco advertising and promotion influences the attitudes of nonsmoking adolescents, and makes them more likely to try smoking. - Implantable cardiac defibrillators for people with non‐ischaemic cardiomyopathy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Dec-2018
There is evidence that implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) for primary prevention in people with an ischaemic cardiomyopathy improves survival rate. The evidence supporting this intervention in people with non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy is not as d - Implantable defibrillators versus medical therapy for cardiac channelopathies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Oct-2015
Sudden cardiac death is a significant cause of mortality in both the US and globally. However, 5% to 15% of people with sudden cardiac death have no structural abnormalities, and most of these events are attributed to underlying cardiac ion channelopathie - Implantable loop recorder versus conventional diagnostic workup for unexplained recurrent syncope
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2016
The most recent syncope guideline recommends that implantable loop recorders (ILRs) are implanted in the early phase of evaluation of people with recurrent syncope of uncertain origin in the absence of high-risk criteria, and in high-risk patients after a - Implantable miniature telescope (IMT) for vision loss due to end‐stage age‐related macular degeneration
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-May-2018
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) causes progressive and irreversible damage to the retina, resulting in loss of central vision. AMD is the third leading cause of irreversible visual impairment worldwide and the leading cause of blindness in industri - Implanted spinal neuromodulation interventions for chronic pain in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Dec-2021
Implanted spinal neuromodulation (SNMD) techniques are used in the treatment of refractory chronic pain. They involve the implantation of electrodes around the spinal cord (spinal cord stimulation (SCS)) or dorsal root ganglion (dorsal root ganglion stimu - Implementation interventions to promote the uptake of evidence‐based practices in stroke rehabilitation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Oct-2020
Rehabilitation based upon research evidence gives stroke survivors the best chance of recovery. There is substantial research to guide practice in stroke rehabilitation, yet uptake of evidence by healthcare professionals is typically slow and patients oft - Implementation of treatment guidelines for specialist mental health care
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Dec-2016
A huge gap exists between the production of evidence and its uptake in clinical practice settings. To fill this gap, treatment guidelines, based on explicit assessments of the evidence base, are commonly used in several fields of psychiatry, including sch - Implementation strategies for health systems in low‐income countries: an overview of systematic reviews
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Sep-2017
A key function of health systems is implementing interventions to improve health, but coverage of essential health interventions remains low in low-income countries. Implementing interventions can be challenging, particularly if it entails complex changes - Improving adherence to Standard Precautions for the control of health care‐associated infections
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Feb-2018
'Standard Precautions' refers to a system of actions, such as using personal protective equipment or adhering to safe handling of needles, that healthcare workers take to reduce the spread of germs in healthcare settings such as hospitals and nursing home - Improving vaccination uptake among adolescents
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jan-2020
Adolescent vaccination has received increased attention since the Global Vaccine Action Plan's call to extend the benefits of immunisation more equitably beyond childhood. In recent years, many programmes have been launched to increase the uptake of diffe - In vitro fertilisation for unexplained subfertility
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Nov-2015
One-third of subfertile couples have no identifiable cause for their inability to conceive. In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a widely accepted treatment for this condition; however, this treatment is invasive and expensive and is associated with risks. - In vitro fertilisation versus tubal reanastomosis (sterilisation reversal) for subfertility after tubal sterilisation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2006
Tubal sterilisation is the most popular contraceptive method in the world. Approximately 138 million women of reproductive age have had tubal sterilisation and there is evidence that increasingly younger women are being sterilized. With such large numbers - In vitro maturation in subfertile women with polycystic ovarian syndrome undergoing assisted reproduction
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Nov-2018
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) occurs in 4% to 7% of all women of reproductive age and 50% of women presenting with subfertility. Subfertility affects 15% to 20% of couples trying to conceive. A significant proportion of these women ultimately need as - In‐bag manual versus uncontained power morcellation for laparoscopic myomectomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-May-2020
Uterine leiomyomas, also referred to as myomas or fibroids, are benign tumours arising from the smooth muscle cells of the myometrium. They are the most common pelvic tumour in women.
