Increasingly, healthcare policies have changed focus from cure and care to behaviour and health. Prevention is becoming more important, which requires a change in the role of healthcare professionals. Healthcare professionals' role is changing from being a therapist to taking on the role of a coach. To prevent chronicity in Medically Unexplained Physical Symptoms (MUPS), an integrated blended care program was developed. To apply this new program in daily practice, it is important to gain insight into the usability. From the healthcare professionals' point of view the concept of usability consists of performance, satisfaction and acceptability. In this qualitative study participants were recruited after participating in the PARASOL program. Demographics were collected. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and analysed using thematic analysis. Ten healthcare professionals (six physical therapists and four mental health nurses) were interviewed. Four themes on usability were identified: (1) , (2) , (3) and (4) . This study gathered healthcare professionals' experiences with and attitudes towards integrating healthcare and offering blended care programs. An integrated blended care program offers the possibility to personalize treatment. Findings show attention should be given to the new responsibilities of healthcare professionals, and their role in integrated and blended care. This new approach of delivering healthcare can facilitate interprofessional collaboration. Achieving sustainable change in patients however still requires instruction and support for healthcare professionals implementing behavioural change techniques.

Purpose: Although digital solutions could mitigate the challenges faced by older adults living alone (OALA), only a few studies investigated the need for and acceptance of digital health interventions for self-management (DHISMs) among this demographic. Thus, we aim to explore this need and acceptance, along with the contextual factors, among OALA.
Methods: A mixed-methods research approach was adopted.
The effects of 'small private online course + flipped classroom' teaching on job competency of nuclear medicine training trainees.

Background: Nuclear medicine is an interdisciplinary field that integrates basic science with clinical medicine. The traditional classroom teaching model lacks interactive and efficient teaching methods and does not adequately address the learning needs and educational goals associated with standardized training for residents. The teaching model that combines Small Private Online Courses (SPOCs) with a flipped classroom approach is more aligned with the demands of real-life scenarios and workplace requirements, thereby assisting students in developing comprehensive literacy and practical problem-solving skills.

Many academic pediatric centers care for children with medical complexity (CMC) through established complex care and palliative care programs. There are little prior data investigating best practices for collaboration between these two subspecialties in caring for CMC. The aim of this study is to explore the distinct and overlapping roles and responsibilities of pediatric complex care and palliative care teams as identified by providers when caring for a shared population of CMC and their families.

Purpose: Although total dietary protein intake has been associated with bladder cancer (BC) risk, the effect of the origin (plant or animal) and the substitutions remain to be understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of total dietary protein, animal-based protein, plant-based protein, and their substitutions with each other on the risk of BC using a pooled analysis of 10 cohort studies.
Methods: The study was conducted within the "BLadder cancer Epidemiology and Nutritional Determinants" (BLEND) study, including 10 prospective cohort studies from several European countries, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The effect of a team-based blended simulation training program on cardiopulmonary resuscitation on healthcare professionals' perception, performance, and costs: a mixed-method study.

Background: The quality of Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillations (AED) treatment provided by individual practitioners is the most important factor in surviving an in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA); therefore, healthcare professionals (HCPs) require sufficient resuscitation competency. This study aimed to analyze the effects of a blended team-based CPR and AED simulation training (riAniMO program) on HCPs performance, satisfaction and perception on transferability, and costs.
Methods: The riAniMO is based on a multimedia training program with video lessons and a virtual CPR resuscitation simulation, and a team-based CPR and AED simulation.
