The Randomized Educational Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Diagnosis Study: A Trial to Improve the Radiographic Diagnosis of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.

Objectives: Radiographic criteria for acute respiratory distress syndrome have been criticized for poor reliability. Our objective was to test an educational intervention to improve the radiographic identification of acute respiratory distress syndrome by participants in the Large Observational Study to Understand the Global Impact of Severe Acute Respiratory Failure study.

Design: Randomized controlled trial.

Knowledge translation interventions for critically ill patients: a systematic review*.

Objective: We systematically reviewed ICU-based knowledge translation studies to assess the impact of knowledge translation interventions on processes and outcomes of care.

Data Sources: We searched electronic databases (to July, 2010) without language restrictions and hand-searched reference lists of relevant studies and reviews.

Study Selection: Two reviewers independently identified randomized controlled trials and observational studies comparing any ICU-based knowledge translation intervention (e.

Valuing care recipient and family caregiver time: a comparison of methods.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the approaches used for valuing family caregiver and care recipient time devoted to providing and receiving care.

Methods: Valuation approaches were operationalized within a cohort of cystic fibrosis care recipients (n = 110). Base-case analyses, grounded in human capital theory, applied earnings estimates to caregiving time to impute the market value of time lost from labor.
