Features of effective hospital fall prevention trials: an intervention component analysis.

Background: Falls in hospitals continue to burden patients, staff, and health systems. Prevention approaches are varied, as well as their success at preventing falls. Intervention component analysis (ICA) is useful in indicating important features associated with successful interventions in sets of trial with high heterogeneity.

Changes to provision of childbirth education during COVID-19 and its implications for ongoing service delivery - An Australian Survey.

Background: Childbirth and parenting education (CBPE) programs provide participants with information about pregnancy and labour and have a multitude of positive health impacts. During COVID-19, many CBPE classes ceased or transitioned to an online format, significantly impacting pregnant women across Australia. Little is known about the provision and delivery of CBPE in Australia during the COVID-19 pandemic from the perspective of CBPE educators and hospital managers, regarding its impact on staff and implications for ongoing service delivery.

Do women have a choice when it comes to fetal monitoring? Perceptions of information provided and choice of fetal monitoring in Australia: A national survey.

Intro: In Australia, little research has examined how women and people participate in decision-making about types of fetal monitoring, or their perceptions of information provided by caregivers.

Methods: A national cross-sectional survey, the 'Women's experiences Of Monitoring Baby' (WOMB) Study, explored women's experiences of intrapartum fetal monitoring. This study reports on selected results.

Identifying common conditions of pregnancy for women, including women from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, at an Australian hospital: A survey.

Problem: Research that explores the prevalence and range of treatments sought for common conditions of pregnancy is limited, particularly for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) women.

Background: During pregnancy, physical and psychological conditions affect participation in the home, workplace, and community. However, treatment options may be limited, particularly for CALD women.

Qualitative Comparative Analysis of exercise interventions for fall prevention in residential aged care facilities.

Background: Exercise interventions are highly effective at preventing falls in older people living in the community. In residential aged care facilities (RACFs), however, the evidence for effectiveness is highly variable, warranting exploration of drivers of successful trials. This study aims to identify the conditions of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that are associated with reducing falls in RACFs and test whether it can explain the variability.
