BACKGROUND: Women are disproportionately impacted by osteoarthritis (OA) but less likely than men to access early diagnosis and management, or experience OA care tailored through person-centred approaches to their needs and preferences, particularly racialized women. One way to support clinicians in optimizing OA care is through clinical guidelines. We aimed to examine the content of OA guidelines for guidance on providing equitable, person-centred care to disadvantaged groups including women.
METHODS: We searched indexed databases and websites for English-language OA-relevant guidelines published in 2000 or later by non-profit organizations. We used manifest content analysis to extract data, and summary statistics and text to describe guideline characteristics, person-centred care (PCC) using a six-domain PCC framework, OA prevalence or barriers by intersectional factors, and strategies to improve equitable access to OA care.
RESULTS: We included 36 OA guidelines published from 2003 to 2021 in 8 regions or countries. Few (39%) development panels included patients. While most (81%) guidelines included at least one PCC domain, guidance was often brief or vague, few addressed exchange information, respond to emotions and manage uncertainty, and none referred to fostering a healing relationship. Few (39%) guidelines acknowledged or described greater prevalence of OA among particular groups; only 3 (8%) noted that socioeconomic status was a barrier to OA care, and only 2 (6%) offered guidance to clinicians on how to improve equitable access to OA care: assess acceptability, availability, accessibility, and affordability of self-management interventions; and employ risk assessment tools to identify patients without means to cope well at home after surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed that OA guidelines do not support clinicians in caring for diverse persons with OA who face disadvantages due to intersectional factors that influence access to and quality of care. Developers could strengthen OA guidelines by incorporating guidance for PCC and for equity that could be drawn from existing frameworks and tools, and by including diverse persons with OA on guideline development panels. Future research is needed to identify multi-level (patient, clinician, system) strategies that could be implemented via guidelines or in other ways to improve equitable, person-centred OA care.
UNASSIGNED: This study was informed by a team of researchers, collaborators, and thirteen diverse women with lived experience, who contributed to planning, and data collection, analysis and interpretation by reviewing study materials and providing verbal (during meetings) and written (via email) feedback.

While healthcare is becoming more patient-centred, evidence-based nutrition interventions are still not accessible to all patients with cancer. As nutrition interventions directly improve clinical and socioeconomic outcomes, patient-centred care is not complete without nutrition care. While awareness of the negative impact of malnutrition on clinical outcomes, quality of life, and functional and emotional wellbeing in cancer is growing, there is relatively poor awareness amongst patients, clinicians, policymakers, and payers that nutrition interventions -particularly those begun in the early stages of the disease course- are an effective method for improving such outcomes. The European Beating Cancer Plan recognises the need for a holistic approach to cancer but lacks actionable recommendations to implement integrated nutrition cancer care at member state level. When considering nutrition care as a human right, the impact on quality of life and functional status must be prioritized, as these may be equally as important to patients, especially in advanced cancer where improvements in clinical outcomes such as survival or tumour burden may not be attainable. We formulate actions needed at the regional and the European level to ensure integrated nutrition care for all patients with cancer. The 4 main Take Home Messages are as follows: 1. The goals of Europe\'s Beating Cancer Plan cannot be achieved without integrating nutrition across the cancer care continuum. 2. Malnutrition negatively impacts clinical outcomes and has socioeconomic consequences for patients and healthcare systems. 3. Championing integrating nutrition care into cancer care is therefore the duty and ethical responsibility of clinicians (Hippocratic Oath-primum non nocere) and 4. Nutrition care is a cost effective, evidence-based therapy.

HIV outcomes centre primarily around clinical markers with limited focus on patient-reported outcomes. With a global trend towards capturing the outcomes that matter most to patients, there is agreement that standardizing the definition of value in HIV care is key to their incorporation. This study aims to address the lack of routine, standardized data in HIV care.
An international working group (WG) of 37 experts and patients, and a steering group (SG) of 18 experts were convened from 14 countries. The project team (PT) identified outcomes by conducting a literature review, screening 1979 articles and reviewing the full texts of 547 of these articles. Semi-structured interviews and advisory groups were performed with the WG, SG and people living with HIV to add to the list of potentially relevant outcomes. The WG voted via a modified Delphi process - informed by six Zoom calls - to establish a core set of outcomes for use in clinical practice.
From 156 identified outcomes, consensus was reached to include three patient-reported outcomes, four clinician-reported measures and one administratively reported outcome; standardized measures were included. The WG also reached agreement to measure 22 risk-adjustment variables. This outcome set can be applied to any person living with HIV aged > 18 years.
Adoption of the HIV360 outcome set will enable healthcare providers to record, compare and integrate standardized metrics across treatment sites to drive quality improvement in HIV care.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize what facilitates patient-centred care for adult patients in acute healthcare settings from evidence-based patient-centred care guidelines.
METHODS: An integrative literature review.
METHODS: The following data sources were searched between 2002-2020: Citation databases: CINAHL, Medline, Biomed Central, Academic Search Complete, Health Source: Nursing/Academic Edition and Google Scholar. Guideline databases: US National Guideline Clearinghouse, Guidelines International Network, and National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). Websites of guideline developers: Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network, Royal College of Nurses, Registered Nurses Association of Ontario, New Zealand Guidelines Group, National Health and Medical Research Council, and Canadian Medical Association.
CONCLUSIONS:
METHODS: Whittemore and Knafl\'s five-step integrative literature review: (1) identification of research problem; (2) search of the literature; (3) evaluation of data; (4) analysis of data; and (5) presentation of results.
RESULTS: Following critical appraisal, nine guidelines were included for data extraction and synthesis. The following three groups of factors were found to facilitate patient-centred care: 1) Patient care practices: embracing values foundational to patient-centred care, optimal communication in all aspects of care, rendering basic nursing care practices, and family involvement; 2) Educational factors: staff and patient education; and 3) Organizational and policy factors: organizational and managerial support, organizational champions, healthy work environment, and organizational structures promoting interdisciplinary partnership.
CONCLUSIONS: Evidence from included guidelines can be used by nurses, with the required support and buy-in from management, to promote patient-centred care.
CONCLUSIONS: Patient-centred care is essential for quality care. No other literature review has been conducted in the English language to summarize evidence-based patient-centred care guidelines. Patient care practices and educational, organizational, and policy factors promote patient-centred care to improve quality of care and raise levels of awareness of patient-centred care among nursing staff and patients.

BACKGROUND: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute and reversible type of heart failure that shares common features with acute coronary syndrome. It is usually caused by psychological or physical stress, but for a third, triggers cannot be identified. Patients also suffer from residual symptoms and decreased mental health in the recovery phase and may struggle to comprehend and manage everyday living.
OBJECTIVE: To describe patients\' experiences when afflicted by takotsubo syndrome, after discharge from hospital.
METHODS: An inductive explorative design using a qualitative approach with semi-structured individual interviews. The text was analysed using qualitative content analysis according to Graneheim and Lundman.
RESULTS: Ten women and one man afflicted by TTS were interviewed two to twelve months after discharge. Six sub-categories were identified, and a main category emerged: The process from symptom onset and understanding to increased awareness and changes in life. The patients suffered from emotional reactions and they sought answers and understanding about the underlying causes. The disease led to changes in patients\' daily lives as they were affected physically and psychologically. Spouses and/or bystanders had a positive supporting role, but the patients desired more support from the healthcare professionals such as an earlier appointment for follow-up with a nurse.
CONCLUSIONS: Being afflicted by TTS can lead to changes in life conditions but these changes vary among patients. Becoming ill was associated to acute physical stress and prolonged psychological stress and they suffered from emotional reactions. The follow-up care needs to improve as the patients need more guidance from healthcare professionals and earlier appointment for follow-up with a nurse. A structured and multiprofessional treatment with a person-centred approach could support patients in their recovery.

Clinical guidelines optimize care delivery and outcomes. Guidelines support patient engagement and adherence if they reflect patient preferences for treatment options, risks and benefits. Many guidelines do not address patient preferences. Developers require insight on how to develop such guidelines.
To conduct a scoping review on how to identify, incorporate and report patient preferences in guidelines.
We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL, OpenGrey and GreyLit from 2010 to November 2019.
We included English language studies describing patient preferences and guidelines.
We reported approaches for and determinants and impacts of identifying patient preferences using summary statistics and text, and interpreted findings using a conceptual framework of patient engagement in guideline development.
Sixteen studies were included: 2 consulted patients and providers about patient engagement approaches, and 14 identified patient preferences (42.9%) or methods for doing so (71.4%). Studies employed single (57.1%) or multiple (42.9%) methods for identifying preferences. Eight (57.1%) incorporated preferences in one aspect of guideline development, while 6 (42.9%) incorporated preferences in multiple ways, most commonly to identify questions, benefits or harms, and generate recommendations. Studies did not address patient engagement in many guideline development steps. Included studies were too few to establish the best approaches for identifying or incorporating preferences. Fewer than half of the studies (7, 43.8%) explored barriers. None examined reporting preferences in guidelines.
Research is needed to establish the single or multiple approaches that result in incorporating and reporting preferences in all guideline development steps.
