Audit and feedback

Effectiveness of implementation strategies for increasing clinicians’ use of five validated imaging decision rules for musculoskeletal injuries: a systematic review – Priti Kharel et al.

2024-08-09T15:49:31+10:00Audit and feedback, Choosing Wisely, Clinical guidelines, Decision aids, Health professionals, Imaging, Musculoskeletal, Overuse, Publications|

Strategies to enhance clinicians’ adherence to validated imaging decision rules and increase the appropriateness of imaging remain unclear. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of various implementation strategies for increasing clinicians’ use of five validated imaging decision rules (Ottawa Ankle Rules, [...]

A Virtual Hospital Model of Care for Low Back Pain, Back@Home: Protocol for a Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Type-I Study A Virtual Hospital Model of Care for Low Back Pain, Back@Home: Protocol for a Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Type-I Study – Alla Melman et al.

2024-04-07T14:21:05+10:00Audit and feedback, Low back pain, Musculoskeletal, Pain, Publications, Virtual Care/Telehealth|

The primary aim of the Back@Home study is to assess the effectiveness of a virtual hospital model of care to reduce the length of admission in people presenting to ED with musculoskeletal LBP. A secondary aim is to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of the [...]

Feasibility of Symptom monitoring WIth Feedback Trial (SWIFT) for adults on hemodialysis: a registry-based cluster randomized pilot trial – Neeru Agarwal et al.

2023-12-01T15:47:41+11:00Audit and feedback, Kidney, PROMS, Publications, Randomised Control Trial (RCT)|

Patients with kidney failure on hemodialysis (HD) experience considerable symptom burden and poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). There is limited use of patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in facility HD units to direct immediate care, with response rates in other studies between 36 to [...]

Evaluating an audit and feedback intervention for reducing overuse of pathology test requesting by Australian general practitioners: protocol for a factorial cluster randomised controlled trial – Denise A O’Connor et al

2023-06-27T17:08:08+10:00Audit and feedback, Low-value care, Overdiagnosis, Overtesting, Overtreatment, Overuse, Publications|

Consistent evidence shows pathology services are overused worldwide and that about one-third of testing is unnecessary. Audit and feedback (AF) is effective for improving care but few trials evaluating AF to reduce pathology test requesting in primary care have been conducted. The aim of this [...]

Effect of an Individualized Audit and Feedback Intervention on Rates of Musculoskeletal Diagnostic Imaging Requests – Denise A. O’Connor, Paul Glasziou & Rachelle Buchbinder

2023-01-25T15:24:50+11:00Audit and feedback, Imaging, Musculoskeletal, Overuse, Publications|

The evidence base for audit and feedback is incomplete and slow moving: agencies that routinely use feedback to improve care have limited evidence on the best designs and delivery of their feedback programs. Hence, the Department collaborated with researchers to conduct a randomized trial of their [...]

Effect of an Individualized Audit and Feedback Intervention on Rates of Musculoskeletal Diagnostic Imaging Requests by Australian General Practitioners: A Randomized Clinical Trial – Denise O’Connor et al.

2022-09-14T12:26:47+10:00Audit and feedback, Musculoskeletal, Publications, Tests|

Among Australian high-requesting general practitioners, an individualized audit and feedback intervention significantly decreased the rate of targeted musculoskeletal imaging tests ordered over 12 months.
