Barriers to patient enrolment in oncology clinical trials at a Canadian regional cancer centre: a mixed methods study
(2022-12-01)
Background:
Randomized controlled trials are required to assess the safety and efficacy of new cancer medications in humans for marketing approval. Thereby, efforts to inform strategies to improve low enrolment rates are ...
The perceived effectiveness of various forms of feedback on the acquisition of technical skills by advanced learners in simulation-based health professions education
(2023-08-01)
Simulation-based health professions education is valuable for healthcare professionals to develop technical skills. However, little research has explored the effectiveness of augmented versus intrinsic feedback for advanced ...
Examining the effects of embodiment on performance and learning of drilling actions using pseudo-haptics and standard computer equipment
(2023-08-01)
Psychomotor skills training within virtual learning environments are limited due to the need for expensive haptic devices to simulate haptic cues. While pseudo-haptics presents an accessible and cost-effective alternative ...
Using the evidence-development-validation-consensus (EDVC) approach to develop an online training program for healthcare professionals and laypeople to provide outside-hospital cardiac arrest care in rural and remote places
(2023-09-01)
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated challenges in delivering cardiac arrest (CA) courses in remote and rural (R&R) areas and affected training for laypeople (LP) and healthcare professionals (HCPs). Due to the ...
An evaluation of a dietary sodium reduction research consortium of five low-and middle-income countries in Latin America
(2023-04-01)
Background: Excess sodium consumption is a risk factor to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In Latin American countries (LAC), CVD rates are high. In LAC, policy development is complex and factors impacting research uptake ...
Characteristics of rapidly manufactured ventilators: a scoping review
(2023-08-01)
The mechanical ventilator shortage caused by the Sars-CoV-2 (Covid-19) respiratory virus revealed healthcare systems worldwide were not equipped to handle mass-casualty events. Rapidly manufactured ventilators (RMVs) are ...
Exploring the facilitators of adapted mountain biking based on the lived experiences of adults living with a spinal cord injury
(2023-08-01)
Research related to adapted mountain biking for people living with spinal cord injuries has primarily focused on the barriers that exist. Facilitators of adapted mountain biking have not been well-researched, and a better ...
Effect of neck muscle vibration on upper limb sensorimotor integration and motor performance
(2022-07-01)
Upper limb control depends on accurate internal models of the position of the limbs relative to the head and neck. The cerebellum is heavily involved in SMI of neck sensory inputs and motor learning; therefore, it is likely ...
Introduction to target trial emulation in rehabilitation: a systematic approach to emulate a randomized controlled trial using observational data
(MINERVA MEDICA, 2024-02)
ehabilitation providers and policymakers need valid evidence to make informed decisions about the healthcare needs of the population. Whenever possible, these decisions should be informed by randomized controlled trials ...
