Improving the Absorptive Capacity (ACAP) of Commissioning Networks for Critical Review of Evidence to Reduce Unplanned Elderly Care Admissions into Acute Hospitals

Funder: NIHR HSDR, £499,000. (5% SS time to RCN RI)

PI: Graeme Currie, WBS

Start date: 1.6.13. End date 31.5.16

Collaborators: Richard Lilford (Birm), Sabi Redwood (Birm), Tina Kiefer, Sophie Staniszewska.

Description: This study is exploring the ‘absorptive capacity’ of clinical commissioning networks. This term describes an organisation’s ‘ability to identify, assimilate, & exploit knowledge from the environment’

The objectives of this study are:

(i) To assess the development of critical review capacity, conceived as ACAP, of the new CCG led commissioning networks from inception through their early years;

(ii) To enhance the development of critical review capacity, conceived as ACAP, of the new CCG led commissioning networks;

(iii) To support acquisition & utilisation of patient experience knowledge to enhance critical review capacity, conceived as ACAP of commissioning networks;

(iv) To develop & validate a self-reflection ACAP tool for use by CCG led commissioning networks & other healthcare organisations to enhance their critical review capacity;

(v) To bridge the gap between potential & realised critical review capacity or ACAP of CCG led commissioning networks

Sophie Staniszewska is leading work package 3, ‘Using patient experience evidence to enhance critical review capacity of commissioning networks’. The ACAP PPI group has been established and has commented on the emerging data from the study. Their substantive input will be into the development of the psychometric tool to measure ACAP.

Developing consensus on guidance for reporting patient and public involvement (GRIPP 2)

Tue, 10 Nov 2015 13:37:38 GMT

Funder: Internal funding

Start date: January 2013 End date: June 2014

PI: Sophie Staniszewska (Warwick)

Collaborators: Kate Seers (Warwick), Carole Mockford (Warwick), Jo Brett (Warwick), Rosemary Barber (Sheffield), Iveta Simera (Oxford), Doug Altman (Oxford), David Moher (Ottowa), Peter Littlejohns (Kings, formerly NICE), Victoria Thomas (NICE), Chris Morris (Exeter Medical School), Simon Denegri (INVOLVE).

Description: The reporting of patient and public involvement in health research needs significant enhancement. The GRIPP checklist developed by the RCN RI represents the first international attempt to enhance the quality of PPI reporting. This study will utilise the GRIPP checklist and develop GRIPP 2 by following the method and consensus process utilised by the EQUATOR Network, an international initiative that seeks to enhance the reliability and value of medical research by promoting transparent and accurate reporting of research studies. The aim of the GRIPP 2 checklist is to help researchers and service users improve the quality, content, detail, consistency, transparency, and completeness of their PPI reporting, thus

strengthening the PPI evidence base, and ultimately enabling a clearer understanding of what PPI works, for whom, why and in what circumstances.

Progress: The paper that underpins this work reporting the GRIPP checklist has been published. The study is complete including the Delphi and the consensus meeting. The final papers are being written.

Collaborators: Kate Seers (Warwick), Carole Mockford (Warwick), Jo Brett (Warwick), Rosemary Barber (Sheffield), Iveta Simera (Oxford), Doug Altman (Oxford), David Moher (Ottawa), Peter Littlejohns (NICE)

Descrption: The reporting of patient and public involvement in health research needs significant enhancement. The GRIPP checklist developed by the RCN RI represents the first international attempt to enhance the quality of PPI reporting. This study will utilise the GRIPP checklist and develop GRIPP 2 by following the method and consensus process utilised by the EQUATOR Network, an international initiative that seeks to enhance the reliability and value of medical research by promoting transparent and accurate reporting of research studies. The aim of the GRIPP 2 checklist will be to help researchers and service users improve the quality, content, detail, consistency, transparency, and completeness of their PPI reporting, thus strengthening the PPI evidence base, and ultimately enabling a clearer understanding of what PPI works, for whom, why and in what circumstances.

Progress: The paper that underpins this work reporting the GRIPP checklist has been published. Invitations to participate in the Delphi consensus survey (to gain consensus on what should and should not be included in the GRIPP checklist) sent to a cohort of individuals working in this area with 165 confirmed participants. The survey has been set up to run online, and has been tested.

The final consensus meeting is being arranged for last week in March 2014 at the RCN HQ, London

We are preparing the protocol paper. We plan to negotiate multiple publication of the final GRIPP 2 paper in key journals, as is usual practice for EQUATOR guidance.

PI: Sophie Staniszewska

Collaborators: Kate Seers (Warwick), Jo Brett (Warwick), Lee Gunn (Warwick) Julie Roberts (Warwick), Felicity Boardman (Warwick), Diane Clay (Warwick).

Description: The NICE Scoping Study included a focused thematic qualitative overview, utilising key aspects of systematic reviewing to develop the Warwick Patient Experiences Framework (WaPEF) to inform the development of the NICE Patient Experiences Guideline which will be utilised in the NHS Outcomes Framework. The aims were to:

• To identify generic themes and sub-themes of patient experience in three clinical areas: cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer, all areas of significant disease burden.

• To use the themes and sub-themes identified in the three clinical areas to develop an overall generic patient experiences framework that has potential relevance for all patients.

Progress: This scoping study is now complete and has been used in the development of the NICE Patient Experiences Guidance which will become part of the NHS Outcomes Framework.

RAPPORT Public involvement in research: a realist evaluation of approaches, process and outcomes

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 08:04:32 GMT

Funder: INVOLVE/Health Services Research Programme

Start date: September 2011. End date: September 2013

PI: Tricia Wilson

Collaborators: Kendall S (Hertforshire), Goodman C (Hertfordshire), Cowe M (Hertfordshire), Munday D (Hertfordshire), Peckham S (London School of Hygiene), Howe A (Norwich), Poland F (Norwich), Staniszewska S (Warwick).

Description: This project seeks to evaluate how different approaches to public involvement in research influences the identification of priorities, research conception, design, process, findings and knowledge transfer. To capture a range of research topics and methods and outcomes six exemplar areas will be investigated for evidence of public involvement in research (PIR); these are: diabetes, arthritis, cystic fibrosis, dementia, public health and learning disabilities. Analysis will focus on how different approaches to PIR and intensity of PIR impact on how research questions are framed, the research process, the interpretation of data and ultimately the dissemination and implementation of findings to clinicians, patient groups and commissioners.

Progress: The project has completed and papers are being planned. The final report has been submitted. SS leading on the paper focusing on the importance of relationships as the glue of successful PPI. The team are working on a paper focusing on evaluating public involvement in health research: normalisation Process Theory as programme theory within a realist evaluative framework.

ECLIPS: Evaluating CLAHRCs Impacts and Process

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 08:03:41 GMT

Funder: National Institute for Health Research Service Delivery & Organisation Programme

Start date: January 2010. End date: July 2014.

PI: Jo Rycroft-Malone ( Bangor )

Collaborators: Ariss S, Burton C, Dopson S, Graham I, Harvey G, Martin G, McCormack B, Staniszewska s, Thompson C, Wilkinson J, Andrews G.

Description: This aim of this study is to determine the impact of CLAHRCs in relation to one of their key functions: 'implementing the findings from research in clinical practice' and thereby make a significant contribution to the evidence base about research implementation. The overarching evaluation question is implementation research through CLAHRCs - What works, for whom, why and in what circumstances? This will be addressed through objectives about implementation processes, mechanisms and impact, communities of practice and sustained interactions, contextual influences, and boundary objects. An integral part of the study will be the exploration of user involvement in the implementation of research within CLAHRCs.

Progress: The study has completed and the study report has been submitted. Warwick is leading on the user involvement strand, focusing on assessing the impact of user involvement in CLARCHs. Papers are in preparation.

Big Lottery Better care study: better lives for life-limited children in West Midlands

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 08:01:49 GMT

Funder: Big Lottery

Start date: September 2010. End date: September 2012.

Grant holder: ACT

Collaborators: Ann Hunt (Lancaster), Sophie Staniszewska (Warwick), Jane Coad (Coventry), Liz West (Greenwich), Nick Hex (York)

Description: The Big Study for Life-limited Children and their Families (The Big Study) is a research project, based in the West Midlands. Funded by Big Lottery Fund, this is the first in-depth study in the UK to examine how well the needs of children with life-limiting conditions and their families are being met.

The study will determine and map those services that are currently used by children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, identify and document children’s and families’ needs, and explore gaps in service provision and the accessibility of services to those who need them. It has a strong user involvement dimension, working with parents and young people in developing our understanding of acceptable, appropriate and effective services.

Progress: Work in all five strands (led by each university) is now underway. Sophie Staniszewska is leading on the user involvement strand – focusing on exploring and evaluating the difference users make to the research study. Lee Gunn was appointed as Research Fellow on the study and is developing user involvement within each strand. Overall, the study is progressing well. The first paper from the study has been submitted. ACT have now merged with another organisation to become Children’s Hospices UK.
