'Visible-ness': the nature of communication for children admitted to a specialist children's hospital in the Republic of Ireland.
(2008)
MCCARRON, MARY
Abstract:
This article presents the core concept of 'visible-ness' that emerged from an ethnographic study, which explored the nature of communication, for children (for ease of reading children refers to children and young people), admitted to a children's hospital in the Republic of Ireland. BACKGROUND: The importance of engaging with both child and family has been espoused as fundamental in promoting 'family'-centred care. To date, studies have almost exclusively explored parents' and nurses' perspectives of the nature of parent participation and nurse-parent interactions and relationships. Although there is evidence of an emerging body of knowledge, which explores children's perspectives of their information, and communication needs, little is known empirically about the communication process between children and members of the health care team in inpatient hospital settings. DESIGN: The principles of ethnography underpinned the study design. METH...

Abstract:
At present in Europe, there are over 50 million people living with multimorbidity (PwMs). Nonetheless, research pertaining to the experience of a PwM has been scant, in particular how health researchers and policy makers can promote self-management, offsetting the EU?s annual ?700 billion cost of chronic disease management. ProACT (Integrated Technology Systems for ProACTive Patient Centred Care) aims to develop and evaluate an ecosystem to integrate a wide variety of new and existing technologies to improve and advance home-based integrated care for older adults with multimorbidity. While PPI has recently been encouraged, and supported within academic research, there has been little guidance regarding how to implement it. This poster will illustrate how PPI was achieved within ProACT by borrowing existing methodologies, successfully implemented, in the disciplines of Design and Human Computer Interaction (HCI).

Abstract:
Multimorbidity (2 or more chronic conditions) is being widely studied in older populations and this study explores both the relevance of emerging conceptualizations and the extent to which multimorbidity is a feature of aging in persons with an intellectual disability. METHODS: Data was generated from wave one of the intellectual disability supplement to the Irish longitudinal study on aging (IDS-TILDA) which included 753 persons with an ID aged 40 years and over. Information on the presence of 12 chronic conditions was collected using a standardized protocol administered in face to face interviews with persons with ID and/or their caregivers. Prevalence of multimorbidity was established and patterns were examined using logistic regression models. The patterns of multimorbidity for people with ID that emerged were then compared with those reported for other older adults. RESULTS: Multimorbidity was established for 71% of the IDS-TILDA sample with women at highest risk and rates of...

Abstract:
<p>The original article is available at hrbopenresearch.org</p>
<p><strong>Background: </strong>Current thinking in health recognises the influence of early life experiences (health and otherwise) on later life outcomes. The life course approach has been embedded in the work of the World Health Organisation since the Ageing and Health programme was established in 1995. Yet there has been limited debate on the relevancy of a life course lens to understanding health service utilisation.</p> <p><strong>Aim:</strong> The aim of the review was twofold. Firstly, identify existing healthcare utilisation frameworks other than the dominant Andersen’s behavioural model currently in use. Secondly, to identify if current frameworks incorporate the advocated life course perspective in understanding health service utilisation. <br />Methods: A scoping review of PubMed, Cinahl Plus, Emerald, PsycINFO, Web of Knowledge and Scopus was c...

Abstract:
1 The Intellectual Disability Supplement to The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (IDS- TILDA) is a large-scale, nationally representative study of people aged 40 years and over with an intellectual disability (ID) in Ireland. It is the most comprehensive study on ageing in persons with intellectual disability ever carried out in Ireland, and the first of its kind internationally, to be conducted in tandem with a national population study on ageing. IDS-TILDA will provide much needed data on the health, social, economic and environmental circumstances of 753 people as they grow older and on how their circumstances change over time. At Wave 1, the National Intellectual Disability Database (NIDD) provided the sampling frame for the study and a nationally representative group of 753 respondents with an ID over the age of 40 years were successfully enrolled in the study. At Wave 2, all living Wave 1 respondents were invited to complete a pre- interview questionnaire (PIQ) and also unde...

Dopa decarboxylase gene polymorphisms and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): no evidence for association in the Irish population
(2001)
GILL, MICHAEL; MCCARRON, MARY; HAWI, ZIARIH; FITZGERALD, MICHAEL
Abstract:
Dopa decarboxylase (DDC) is an enzyme which catalyses the decarboxylation of both dopa to dopamine and L-5 hydroxytryptophan to serotonin. Both catecholamines are major neurotransmitters of the mammalian nervous system. It has been suggested that genes involved in the dopaminergic system play a primary role in predisposing to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In this study, the 4-bp insertion/deletion variant mapped to the first neuronally expressed exon 1 at the dopa decarboxylase gene and two microsatellite markers flanking the gene were investigated for possible association with ADHD. Using HHRR, we observed an increased transmission (though not significant) of the 4-bp insertion (allele 1) to ADHD cases (chi2 = 2.72, P = 0.1, RR = 1.25). However marginally significant excess transmission of allele 10 (213 bp) of the 3' microsatellite D7S2422 (~0.75 cM distal to dopa decarboxylase gene) was found (chi2 = 4.2, P = 0.04, RR=1.48). Interestingly, a haplotype cont...

Dopaminergic system genes in ADHD: toward a biological hypothesis
(2002)
GILL, MICHAEL; HAWI, ZIARIH; MCCARRON, MARY
Abstract:
Converging evidence has implicated abnormalities of dopamine neurotransmission to the pathology of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Several genetic association studies have been published, but so far, no DNA variants have been unequivocally demonstrated as contributing to ADHD susceptibility. Four dopamine related gene loci have been implicated, however: DAT1, DRD4, DBH, and DRD5. Each of these may influence the liability of ADHD to a small degree. Notably, all are involved in signal transduction at the neuronal synapse. In this article, we investigate as candidate genes for ADHD, DNA polymorphisms at dopamine receptors, the dopamine transporter, and genes known to be involved in dopamine synthesis and metabolism. In a recent article, we confirmed the previously reported association of DAT1 (480bp allele) with ADHD and identified polymorphisms at two additional loci showing preferential transmission to ADHD children of alleles at DRD5 (148bp allele) and at DBH (allel...

Effectiveness of gerontologically informed nursing assessment and referral interventions for older persons attending the emergency department: systematic review
(2009)
MCCARRON, MARY; MCCALLION, PHILIP; CLARKE, MICHAEL
Abstract:
AIM: This paper is a report of a literature review conducted to analyse data from published studies reporting nursing interventions targeted at older attendees of emergency departments (EDs), and to provide a critical appraisal of the evidence concerning their effectiveness. BACKGROUND: Attendance at hospital EDs by older persons presents opportunities for targeted interventions to address actual and potential problems associated with or in addition to the presenting problem. The evidence concerning the effectiveness of such interventions is mixed. DATA SOURCES: Studies were retrieved from a systematic search of published works indexed in CINAHL, MEDLINE (PubMed), Science Direct and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL). METHODS: A systematic review of effectiveness was conducted using the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care guidelines and a narrative synthesis approach for data handling and presentation. The review period was 1992 to 31 A...

Expanding assessment of fear of falling among older adults with an intellectual disability
(2013)
MCCARRON, MARY; FORAN, SINEAD MARGARET
Abstract:
Fear of falling (FOF) has emerged as an important health concern in older adults, yet it has rarely been investigated in people with intellectual disabilities (ID). Valid and reliable measurement approaches are a particular challenge. Scales that have been developed to measure FOF have not been validated for use with older people with ID and are not routinely used with proxy respondents. Method. 63 people comprised purposeful samples of 3 groups, people with ID (? = 21), their nominated key workers (? = 21), and additional support workers (? = 21). Test-retest reliability and interrater reliability were assessed for using a dichotomous, single-item FOF screening measure. The degree of FOF and activity restriction due to FOF were also investigated. Results. Inter-rater reliability was found to be moderate to excellent with Kappa = 0.77 on ratings of the FOF item. Test-retest reliability for each group of reviewers for the FOF item were also found to be excellent (0.95). Conclusion. T...

Abstract:
Attention to disease and risk factor management is increasingly a feature of people with intellec- tual disability (ID) as an augmented life expec- tancy also exposes a growing number of age- related diseases. An additional concern is little attention to date to physical activity, nutrition, access to social support and other personal health choices and to environmental issues such as the impact of access to social support and the implications of individual?s living ar- rangements. Method: Using a sample of 753 persons with ID from the intellectual disability supplement to the Irish longitudinal study on ageing (IDS-TILDA), forty three variables were grouped into environmental, predisposing, ena- bling, need and personal health choices clusters and hierarchical ordinary least squares regres- sion examined the contribution of environmental, enabling, predisposing, need and all combina- tions of the sets of variables to personal health choices. Findings: Almost 32% of variance was exp...

Perceptions of stigma in dementia: An exploratory study
(2006)
Nolan, Louise; McCarron, Mary; McCallion, Philip; Murphy-Lawless, Jo
Abstract:
There are currently more than 33,000 people known to have dementia in Ireland. Due to its complex and multi-faceted nature, the impact of dementia on all those affected is extensive. Existing theories of stigma posit that possessing a disability such as dementia can result in a perception of difference between the person and others in the community, and potentially predispose the person with dementia to stigmatisation and discrimination. By association carers/family members of the person with dementia may also be subject to the effects of stigma or its components. It has been suggested that dementia related stigma is a concern in terms of the provision of dementia care and that it poses an obstacle to the well-being and quality of life of persons with dementia and their carers. To date this subject has not been explored in-depth from an Irish perspective. Consequently, the Alzheimer Society of Ireland commissioned this exploratory research, to better understand this issue and gain i...

Policy analysis: Palliative care in Ireland
(2014)
MCCALLION, PHILIP; HYNES, GERALYN; MCCARRON, MARY; MAY, PETER
Abstract:
Palliative care for patients with advanced illness is a subject of growing importance in health services, policy and research. In 2001 Ireland became one of the first nations to publish a dedicated national palliative care policy. This paper uses the ?policy analysis triangle? as a framework to examine what the policy entailed, where the key ideas originated, why the policy process was activated, who were the key actors, and what were the main consequences. Although palliative care provision expanded following publication, priorities that were unaddressed or not fully embraced on the national policy agenda are identified. The factors underlying areas of non-fulfilment of policy are then discussed. In particular, the analysis highlights that policy initiatives in a relatively new field of healthcare face a trade-off between ambition and feasibility. Key policy goals could not be realised given the large resource commitments required; the competition for resources from other, better-e...

Successful research capacity building in academic nursing and midwifery in Ireland: an exemplar.
(2014)
MCCARRON, MARY; BEGLEY, CECILY; HIGGINS, AGNES; HUNTLEY-MOORE, SYLVIA
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Nursing and midwifery education have comparatively recently moved into academia in Ireland. In 2002, nurse tutors who were qualified to Master's degree level assimilated into the third-level sector. Only 11 of the 35 staff (31%) in one university School held, or were undertaking, a PhD. In 2006, children's nursing and midwifery tutors also moved into third-level institutions. The culture of all assimilating tutors was focussed on teaching, rather than research. OBJECTIVES: The School set ambitious plans to develop the research abilities of all academics, setting the goal that 75% of academic staff would either hold, or be undertaking, a PhD by 2010. Objectives were also set to increase external research funding, peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. METHODS: A combination of sabbatical leaves, student stipends and periods of reduced teaching load was introduced to provide staff with protected time for doctoral studies. Funding for conferen...

Abstract:
THESIS 7338
Background: Persons with Down syndrome (DS) are at increased risk of Alzheimer?s type dementia (AD) when compared to the general population, yet little attention has been paid to the impact of the illness on such persons and their caregivers in residential and community settings. Aim: To investigate the amount of time formal caregivers spend caring for and supporting persons with DS with and without dementia in their day-to-day activities of living. Method: 63 persons with DS and dementia, and 61 persons with DS without dementia, and their caregivers were administered the Down Syndrome Mental Status Examination (DSMSE), the Test for Severe Impairment (TSI), the Daily Living Skills Questionnaire (DLSQ), and the Adaptive Behaviour Scale-Part 11 (ABS-11). Caregivers also recorded time-spent caregiving over a twenty-four hour period. Costs were calculated for time-spent caregiving. Data were also gathered on clinical correlates or co-morbid conditions.

Abstract:
Internationally, there is agreement that older LGBT people are a ‘doubly invisible group’; hence, research that specifically addresses their lives, needs, and aspirations is sparse. As no Irish studies exist that explore issues for older LGBT people, this research aims to fill this gap in knowledge by examining the circumstances, experiences and needs of LGBT people aged 55 and over living in Ireland.
