Keep things simple if you want things done.

Here is my rule of 10: 10mg of empagliflozin, 10mg of ramipril, 10mg of rosuvastatin, 10mg of ezetimibe and 10mg finerenone is a solid 10/10 for cardiovascular and kidney disease in diabetes. It is potent combo and easy to remember.#implementationscience

With view to #HRQL I will point out that conceptually it is interesting to consider differences in outcomes and how they relate to #SDoH, but research and practice likely will benefit from a focus on the mediating factors:
- service provision and quality in the area;
- initiation of treatment;
- adherence & participation in treatment;
- #SelfManagement and its support (formal and informal)
to name only a few.

#ImplementationScience

And here the fifth session (can only include four pictures), which will close the series of talks with a focus on questions around #ImplementationScience and SDoH.

#MWMsymposium hopes to stimulate research ideas, including novel methodologies to analyze relationships between SDoH and HRQL!

And as these papers and reviews show, a substantial challenge for any intervention remains to be met with uptake that meets fidelity and implementation standards of the developers (even when having been developed by people in this specific professional context).

More on #IAQ at #APHA: a poster by Kate McPaul and others about knowledge of, attitudes toward, and acceptability of air hygiene methods (UVGI) in restaurants. Fascinating topic, participatory methods -- every time I've ever groused about engineers not paying attention to #ImplementationScience, I was hoping for something like this to come along. Bravo authors!

Two years ago we published a special issue on "Using feedback tools to enhance the quality and experience of care":

In our editorial we raised five key perspectives to push the field forward 👇

If you want to follow up with some content that was presented at #ISOQOL, have a look at these items in the society's newsletter:

The items dated 17.10.2023 contain a number of summaries of presentations, for example:

Measuring QOL of children and adolescents with advanced cancer #HRQL

Scaling up a measurement model for rare disease clinical trials #RCT

Contextualizing PROMs using personas and journey maps

IS acknowledges dynamic relationships between individual clinicians and the wider context of the intervention (e.g., organizational context, structures, patient engagement). It is highly useful for developing PROMs and #FeedbackSystems.

The group published five articles explaining these ideas in more detail in our #FeedbackTools special issue:
