Development of a PROM to measure patient-centredness in chronic care consultations in primary care.

Introduction: Validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are crucial for assessing patients' experiences in the healthcare system. Both clinically and theoretically, patient-centered consultations are essential in patient-care, and are often suggested as the optimal strategy in caring for patients with multimorbidity.

Aim: To either identify or develop and validate a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) to assess patient-centredness in consultations for patients with multimorbidity in general practice.

A Core Outcome Set for Adult General ICU Patients.

Objectives: Randomized clinical trials informing clinical practice (e.g., like large, pragmatic, and late-phase trials) should ideally mostly use harmonized outcomes that are important to patients, family members, clinicians, and researchers.

Management of head and neck cancer of unknown primary: A phase IV study by DAHANCA.

Background: Diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary (HNSCCUP) remains a challenge. The aim of the present phase IV study was to assess adherence to the current Danish guidelines and evaluate the treatment outcome in HNSCCUP patients.

Materials And Methods: Prospectively collected data in the DAHANCA database from patients treated between 2014 and 2020 was evaluated.

Peer coaching in cardiac surgery: a pilot study on rehabilitation participation and perioperative challenges.

Following cardiac surgery, active participation in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is associated with reduced cardiovascular events and improved survival. However, CR attendance remains persistently low, with only ∼25% of patients participating. The Peer Coaching for Cardiac Patients (PCCP) pilot programme aimed to assess whether peer coaching could enhance CR participation and reduce perioperative anxiety and depression in cardiac surgery patients.

Potassium disorders at intensive care unit admission and functional outcomes after cardiac arrest.

Background: Abnormal serum potassium levels are commonly found in the intensive care unit (ICU) population. We aimed to determine the prevalence of potassium disorders at ICU admission and its association with functional outcomes in comatose patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest.

Methods: We performed a post hoc analysis of pooled data from four randomised clinical trials involving comatose post-cardiac arrest patients admitted to ICU after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
