  • Using the United Kingdom Standards for Public Involvement to Evaluate
    Seddon et al. Research Involvement and Engagement (2021) 7:22 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40900-021-00264-3 METHODOLOGY Open Access Using the United Kingdom standards for public involvement to evaluate the impact of public involvement in a multinational clinical study Kathy Seddon1, Jim Elliott2,MiriamJohnson3, Clare White4, Max Watson5, Annmarie Nelson6† and Simon Noble6*† Abstract Background: The publication of the United Kingdom (UK) Standards for Public Involvement (PI) (UK Standards) in research drew a clear line in the sand regarding the importance of utilising the unique experience, skills and expertise that lay people may offer to the development, conduct and dissemination of clinical research. The UK Standards provide a benchmark which researchers should aim to achieve, yet its implementation continues to be a step wise iterative process of change management. A recent evaluation by a regional research group has suggested that our understanding of PI is enhanced through reflection on the UK Standards. We report on the utility of PI in the design, conduct and dissemination of the HIDDen study, a national, multicentre clinical study based across three UK centres. Methods: A retrospective review of PI within the HIDDen study was conducted using field notes taken by the lead author from interactions throughout their involvement as a lay representative on the study. Key members of the HIDDen study were interviewed and data analysed to explore adherence to the UK Standards. Results: There was universal support for PI across the study management group with genuine inclusivity of lay members of the committee. All six of the UK Standards were met to varying degrees.

  • Across Enemy Lines: a Study of the All-Party Groups in the Parliaments of Canada, Ontario, Scotland and the United Kingdom
    Across Enemy Lines: a Study of the All-Party Groups in the Parliaments of Canada, Ontario, Scotland and the United Kingdom by Paul E.J. Thomas A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Paul Thomas 2016 Across Enemy Lines: a Study of the All-Party Groups in the Parliaments of Canada, Ontario, Scotland and the United Kingdom Paul E.J. Thomas Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2016 Abstract The Parliaments of Canada, Ontario, Scotland and the United Kingdom are now home to a growing number of informal bodies that are formed by politicians from all parties who wish to cooperate on specific policy issues or relations with other countries. Such all-party groups (APGs), which deal with topics from the steel industry to genocide prevention, work to share information, meet with stakeholders, and conduct policy studies. Most also have partnerships with external actors who support their activities. This dissertation explores why the number of APGs is rising in each jurisdiction, but also why there are relatively fewer APGs in the two Canadian cases. Using statistical analyses of APG membership patterns as well as interviews with parliamentarians, lobbyists, and journalists, it finds three main factors behind APG expansion. First, the growth of APGs has helped both parliamentarians and external actors to continue to achieve their goals despite changes in the external political environment such as rising policy complexity and increased demands from citizens. Second, APG expansion has been facilitated by the evolution and increasing modularity of the APG format, which has allowed it to be adapted to a broader range of issues and activities.

  • Aspirin and the Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism Following Total Joint Arthroplasty COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS I
    SPECIALTY UPDATE: ARTHROPLASTY Aspirin and the prevention of venous thromboembolism following total joint arthroplasty COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS I. Azboy, The number of arthroplasties being performed increases each year. Patients undergoing an R. Barrack, arthroplasty are at risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and appropriate prophylaxis has A. M. Thomas, been recommended. However, the optimal protocol and the best agent to minimise VTE F. S. Haddad, under these circumstances are not known. Although many agents may be used, there is a J. Parvizi difference in their efficacy and the risk of bleeding. Thus, the selection of a particular agent relies on the balance between the desire to minimise VTE and the attempt to reduce the risk From Rothman of bleeding, with its undesirable, and occasionally fatal, consequences. Institute, Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is an agent for VTE prophylaxis following arthroplasty. Many Philadelphia, United studies have shown its efficacy in minimising VTE under these circumstances. It is States inexpensive and well-tolerated, and its use does not require routine blood tests. It is also a ‘milder’ agent and unlikely to result in haematoma formation, which may increase both the risk of infection and the need for further surgery. Aspirin is also unlikely to result in persistent wound drainage, which has been shown to be associated with the use of agents such as low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and other more aggressive agents. The main objective of this review was to summarise the current evidence relating to the I. Azboy, MD, Associate efficacy of aspirin as a VTE prophylaxis following arthroplasty, and to address some of the Professor of Orthopaedic common questions about its use.

In 2000, after two years of market research and identifying the lack of information around anticoagulation therapy, Anticoagulation UK was launched as a charitable organisation to provide information, education and support to individuals who required anticoagulation therapy in the short term or as a life-long treatment for their specific condition. 17 years of proactivity has produced some significant achievements in terms of patient outcomes and these include access to NHS prescriptions for self-monitoring strips for warfarin patients, VTE risk assessment protocols for hospital inpatients to minimise risk of hospital acquired thrombosis, campaigning for anticoagulants to be given to patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation to reduce stroke risk and most recently, raising awareness of cancer associated thrombosis (CAT) for patients undertaking chemotherapy.
