Does the dentist have a role in identifying patients with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus?
(2014)
Sultan, A; Warreth, A; Fleming, P; MacCarthy, D
Abstract:
Diabetes mellitus is a syndrome of abnormal carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism that is caused by an absolute or relative lack of insulin.1 Type 1 diabetes usually develops in childhood and has a genetic, viral or autoimmune aetiology. Type 2 diabetes has a multifactorial aetiology with a strong genetic component and the condition can be prevented by simple lifestyle education

Moving towards a mandate
(2015)
Hardiman, Ann-Marie
Abstract:
By now, every dentist registered to practise in Ireland should have received a copy of the Dental Council’s document, Your guide to the Dental Council’s Continuing Professional Development requirements. While the new Dental Act is still awaited by the profession, it is expected that the Act will make continuing professional development (CPD) mandatory for continued registration. In order to prepare dentists for this change, the Council has been engaged in an ongoing process of updating guidelines and setting out what dentists should be doing now, and what they will be expected to do to maintain registration in the future. Dr Marielle Blake is Chairperson of the Council’s Education and Training Committee, and she explains the thinking behind the document. “At present, all dentists are ethically obliged to maintain their skills. CPD is currently obligatory rather than mandatory, as dentists are obliged to maintain their skills under the Council’s ethics guidelines. Within the new Dent...

Update on medications – management of asthma in adults and children
(2014)
Morrow, Ruth
Abstract:
recent study of 8,000 patients in 11 European countries showed that the levels of asthma control was low with 45% of respondents having uncontrolled asthma. Acute exacerbations were common, with 44% of respondents reported having used oral steroids for asthma in the previous 12 months, 24% had visited an emergency department and 12% had been hospitalised. More worryingly, more than 80% of respondents who had an acute exacerbation considered their asthma to be controlled. Of those who had an exacerbation requiring oral steroids, 75% regarded their asthma as not serious (Price et al, 2014). This article focuses on drugs which the practice nurse may encounter on a daily basis through caring for adults and children with asthma. It will address the newer drugs on the market which require the practice nurse to provide ongoing support, education and monitoring for the patient. Keeping in mind, the one airway concept, the article will focus drugs used to treat upper airway conditions such a...

A quality framework for health services developed through an inclusive approach
(2015)
Markham, Trish; Butler, Michelle; McNamara, Martin
Abstract:
Objective: This study set out to explore and define the concept of “quality” from the perspective of health service managers and health professionals in Ireland, and to develop a theory to inform the development of a quality framework for the Irish health system. Methods: Design: The study design was based on Strauss and Corbin’s (1990) grounded theory approach. This provided a method of social inquiry with the purpose of developing a theory through a systematic and rigorous approach to examine and advance emerging concepts. Setting and participants: Fifty health service managers and professionals employed by the Health Service Executive (HSE) in Ireland participated in this study. Interventions: In-depth interviews were used to explore with participants their experiences of quality in Irish health services, definitions of quality and the elements necessary for a quality framework. Main outcomes: This study produced a substantive theory that identified the need for a holistic approa...

An exploration of the extent of inclusion of spirituality and spiritual care concepts in core nursing textbooks.

An exploration of the extent of inclusion of spirituality and spiritual care concepts in core nursing textbooks.
(2015)
Timmins, Fiona; Murphy, Maryanne; Neill, Freda; Begley, Thelma; Sheaf, Greg
Abstract:
Holistic care that encompasses a spiritual dimension is an expectation in modern healthcare (Rothman, 2009). Increasing attention is being paid to the role of nurses in providing spiritual care to patients. However nurses lack specific skills and expertise in this area (Lundmark, 2006; Timmins, 2010; RCN, 2011), and the extent to which their undergraduate education prepares them for this role is unclear. There is often an absence of clear direction about what to teach undergraduate nursing students. The extent to which core textbooks direct student studies in this area is not known. There is some evidence that some of these fundamental core textbooks provide insufficient direction (Pesut, 2008), thus gaps in knowledge and care provision in this field could be exacerbated.
The aim of this study is to examine the extent to which spiritual care concepts are addressed in core nursing textbooks.
Five hundred and forty three books were sampled from the Nursing and Midwifery Core C...

Towards improved and safer care, for patients and doctors

Towards improved and safer care, for patients and doctors
(2015)
Slattery, D
Abstract:
Allegations are increasing, that doctors fail when obtaining consent, to ensure that the patient understands the information. Obtaining consent is central to the patient doctor relationship. In the USA, doctors write the acronym â PARQâ in medical notes to demonstrate they have discussed â procedureâ (what it entails), â alternativesâ (including nothing), â risksâ (of the procedure and the alternatives) and â questionsâ (invite questions from the patient) 1 . Birch v University College Hospital (UK) 2 case, exemplifies the importance of above. The doctor was found negligent, because although he informed the patient of the risks of catheter angiography which led to her stroke, he did not discuss the comparative risk of magnetic resonance imaging.

Digital network of writers helps to foster spirit of collaboration.
(2015)
Klimas, J; Swan, D; McCombe, G; Henihan, A M
Abstract:
Nurse Liz Charalambous has shown how a Facebook group can help boost writing (careers, June 3). We would like to take this idea one step further and argue that, contrary to a commonly held notion, 'too many cooks do not spoil the broth' when it comes to group writing. Instead, this approach fosters collaboration between writers, as Ms Charalambous suggests, and which has also been our experience.

Daughters of Charity Community Services: an area profile
(2014)
Daughters of Charity Community Services (DoCCS)
Abstract:
The purpose of this study document is to provide an area profile of the communities that are served by the Daughters of Charity Community Services (DoCCS) using statistical data from the 2011 Census and the Pobal HP Deprivation Maps. By focusing on the ‘residence’ or ‘locality’ of 469 registered DoCCS participants in October 2013, as a snapshot in time, the study aims to show that the organisation, through its community education and social care services, is meeting its stated mission objective of directing and targeting its finite resources to those most in need in its catchment area of the north inner city of Dublin. It also aims to provide a deeper understanding and insight into the quality of life of the service participants who experience social disadvantage and exclusion in its community. The majority (81%) of the total number of registered participants were found to reside in the organisation’s core catchment area of Dublin north inner city which, defined in terms of postal a...

Irish trainees continuing to emigrate
(2015)
Brugha, R; Crowe, S; Humphries, N
Abstract:
The Medical Councilâ s spotlight report on â Trainee Career and Retention Intentionsâ , to be released later in October 2015, will report further findings from its 2014 Trainee National Experience Survey1, to which over 1,600 non consultant hospital doctors (NCHDs) in training posts responded. This latest report will show that close to half of trainees â the cornerstone of hospital care and the future cornerstone of our health services â intend to pursue their careers outside of Ireland. Most worrying is that those in Higher Specialist Training are more likely to leave, resulting in greater loss to the Irish health system in terms of investment of effort and money, and lost expertise.1 The findings are consistent with a growing body of evidence on the medical workforce crisis facing Ireland. In early 2015, 88% of Irish medical students reported their intentions to leave Ireland on graduation, though close to half said they would return.2 However, the assumption that most doct...

National sexual health strategy 2015-2020
(2015)
Department of Health (DoH)
Abstract:
This National Sexual Health Strategy is Ireland’s first national framework for sexual health and wellbeing. It has been developed in response to a recommendation of the National AIDS Strategy Committee (NASC) on the need to establish clear leadership within the health sector around the area of sexual health. This Strategy reflects the many changes Ireland has experienced over the past 30 or so years regarding sexual behaviour and sexuality. This includes developments in Ireland’s legislative framework, the requirement to provide school-based sexual health education and, more broadly, society’s changing attitudes to sex and sexuality.

Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland updates its scope of nursing and midwifery practice framework
(2015)
Walsh, Kathleen
Abstract:
Introduction Scope of Practice: the range of roles, functions, responsibilities and activities which a registered nurse or registered midwife is educated, competent and has authority to perform. In 2000, the Scope of Nursing and Midwifery Practice Framework was developed by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) (formerly An Bord Altranais) to support nurses and midwives in developing their individual professional roles. Since then, the Scope Framework, with its decision-making algorithm, has been a keystone of guidance for the professions. Recognising that signifi cant changes and developments have taken place within the context of the Irish health care service, education and professional practice and regulation, the NMBI commenced a project to review and revise the 2000 Scope document. The NMBI wanted to ensure its guidance continued to support nurses and midwives practising in an increasing complex and challenging health care environment.

To report the first Irish outbreak of cfr-mediated linezolid-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis.
Linezolid-resistant S. epidermidis isolated at University Hospital Limerick from four blood cultures, one wound and four screening swabs (from nine patients) between April and June 2013 were characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) and staphylococcal cassette chromosome (SCCmec) typing. Antibiotic susceptibilities were determined according to the guidelines of the British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy. The outbreak was controlled through prohibiting prescription and use of linezolid, adherence to infection prevention and control practices, enhanced environmental cleaning, isolation of affected patients, and hospital-wide education programmes.
PFGE showed that all nine isolates represented a single clonal strain. MLST ...

Abstract Background Internationally, continuing professional competence (CPC) is an increasingly important issue for all health professionals. With the introduction of the first CPC framework for Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and the imminent introduction of CPC for Paramedics and Advanced Paramedics (APs) in Ireland, this study aimed to identify attitudes towards CPC and factors that might influence such a framework. Methods All EMTs (n = 925), Paramedics and APs (n = 1816) registered in Ireland were invited by email to complete an anonymous on-line survey. The study instrument was designed based on continuous professional development (CPD) questionnaires used by other healthcare professions. Quantitative and qualitative analyses were performed. Results The overall response rates were: EMTs 43 % (n = 399), ...

Abstract:
Evidence shows that low-intensity community parenting interventions are effective in addressing child behavioral problems. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Parents Plus Early Years (PPEY) parenting intervention delivered as a single workshop or a seven-week course to a non-clinical community sample by trained preschool practitioners. A between groups, repeated measures, matched pairs design was used. 121 parents of preschool aged children participated in a PPEY seven-week course (N=89) or a single workshop (N=32). Participants were compared pre-intervention and seven weeks later on measures of child difficulties and prosocial behavior and parental satisfaction and stress. A paired samples t-test found that parents reported the seven-week intervention significantly improved child prosocial behavior. Both group formats significantly improved child difficulties, parental satisfaction, and stress. The seven-week group demonstrated significantly greater improvement in ...

Abstract:
: Considerable emphasis is presently being placed on usage of generic medicines by governments focussed on the potential economic benefits associated with their use. Concurrently, there is increasing discussion in the lay media of perceived doubts regarding the quality and equivalence of generic medicines. The objective of this paper is to report the outcomes of a systematic search for peer-reviewed, published studies that focus on physician, pharmacist and patient/consumer perspectives of generic medicines.

Is the current BST ePortfolio fulfilling its role in the training of clinical medicine SHOs?

Abstract:
While the objective recording of clinical competencies in an electronic portfolio (ePortfolio) has become a key aspect of basic specialist training (BST), it continues to divide opinion. We surveyed medical trainees and their supervisors in the Dublin region examining their views of the ePortfolio and workplace-based assessments (WPBAs). Responses were received from 27 of 149 (18.1%) SHOs and 24 of 307 (7.9%) consultants. Our results highlight significant dissatisfaction amongst trainees with 20 (74.1%) stating that the ePortfolio is not an effective educational tool. Consultants had more mixed views. While 16 (66.7%) reported that feedback sessions were useful for trainee development, only 4 (16.7%) found the ePortfolio to be useful in highlighting trainees’ strengths and weaknesses. Although other studies have emphasised its educational potential, our results suggest that practical barriers, such as time constraints and a lack of training, lead to poor engagement and a negative vi...

Standards in operation notes is it time to re-emphasise their importance?

Cahill, KC
Abstract:
Guidelines exist for operation notes from the Royal College of Surgeons of England but compliance has been shown to be variable. The authors performed a closed loop audit of compliance with RCS standards in an Irish Plastic Surgery department. Thirty random operation notes were selected from a conserved pool of authors - before and after an educational intervention to increase awareness of the RCS guidelines. Following education, improvements were noted but also deteriorations â time increased from 12 (40%) to 16 (53%), emergency/elective status from none (0%) to 11 (36%), and operative diagnosis from seven (23%) to 21 (70%). However notably among the findings, surgeonâ s name decreased from 30 (100%) to 26 (86%), findings from 27 (90%) to 21 (53%) and tissue altered from 27 (90%) to 20 (66%). As some specialities are developing operation note standards specific to individual procedures, the findings are compared with previous similar published work.

Abstract:
This report presents the findings of an independent evaluation, undertaken by the Centre for Effective Education at Queen’s University Belfast, of the Mate-Tricks pro-social behaviour after-school programme. The evaluation primarily focused on assessing the impact of Mate-Tricks on children’s outcomes. Additionally, data was collected on how the programme was implemented as well as the experiences and perspectives of key stakeholders. The evaluation team is indebted to the children, parents, teachers, service providers, facilitators and schools that participated in the study. Furthermore, the encouragement and support of the Childhood Development Initiative (CDI) was invaluable during the research process. The team would also like to acknowledge The Atlantic Philanthropies and the Department of Children and Youth Affairs whose generous support made the evaluation possible.
