Article Abstract
Objectives: To identify the most important research topics to establish a national research agenda and protocol for prehospital research in Saudi Arabia (KSA).
Methods: A 3-round modified Delphi consensus methods were used to determine high-priority research topics. Round I included an open-ended question to list all high-priority research topics in a prehospital setting in Riyadh, KSA. Rounds II and III included ranking evaluation and consensus agreement. The included topics were listed based on the agreement of ≥70% of the experts participating in the study. The study was carried out between November 2021 and February 2022.
Results: In total, 100 prehospital experts in KSA were invited to participate in all 3 rounds. Of these, 47 responded in round I, 34 in round II, and 39 in round III. In round I, participants submitted 278 research topics. After deduplication and sorting, 78 topics were assessed in the other 2 rounds.
Conclusion: In this modified Delphi study, an expert panel identified the top prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) care research priorities. The leading research priorities included clinical and operational ideas. The proposed 32 high-priority topics can be used to guide researchers, research networks, policymakers, and funding organizations involved in EMS.

Relative efficacy of prehabilitation interventions and their components: systematic review with network and component network meta-analyses of randomised controlled trials.
BMJ
January 2025
Clinical Epidemiology Program, the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, Ottawa, ON, Canada.
Objective: To estimate the relative efficacy of individual and combinations of prehabilitation components (exercise, nutrition, cognitive, and psychosocial) on critical outcomes of postoperative complications, length of stay, health related quality of life, and physical recovery for adults who have received surgery.
Design: Systematic review with network and component network meta-analyses of randomised controlled trials.
Data Sources: Medline, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were initially searched 1 March 2022, and updated on 25 October 2023.
Objectives: Prehospital notifications (pre-alerts) enable emergency department (ED) staff to prepare for the arrival of patients requiring a time-critical response. Effective communication of the pre-alert is key to enabling the ED to prepare appropriately, but evidence on communication practices is lacking. We undertook qualitative research to understand how pre-alert communication may be improved to optimise the ED response for pre-alerted patients.

The Canadian Screening for Colorectal Cancer Research Network (CanSCCRN) recently set out to develop a national CRC screening research agenda and identify priority research areas. The specific objectives were to (1) identify evidence gaps relevant to CRC screening and the barriers and facilitators to evidence generation and uptake by CRC screening programs, (2) establish high-priority collaborative research ideas to inform best CRC screening practices, and (3) identify one to two research topics for grant development and submission within 12 to 18 months. Three focus groups were conducted with network members and relevant parties ( = 15) to identify evidence gaps, barriers, and facilitators to evidence generation and uptake.

Background & Objectives: Growing data on the impact of herd immunity and susceptibility of unvaccinated persons to chronic COVID sequelae requires deeper understanding of vaccine stigma and hesitancy to facilitate population needs. Reproductive-aged women (18-45 years) were at a "vaccine paradox" during COVID-19 - hesitant to receive the vaccine, yet at increased risk for COVID infection. In this study, we sought to: identify demographic predictors, reasons, geographic location of vaccine hesitancy, and COVID-specific attributes that predict future vaccination willingness.

Article Synopsis
- Robot-assisted (RA) surgery shows potential benefits for urinary tract and pelvic floor reconstruction (UTPFR), but research on its use is limited and needs to grow.
- An International Consultation on Incontinence-Research Society (ICI-RS) meeting suggested prioritizing multicenter studies to assess RA UTPFR's clinical effectiveness, safety, and training needs.
- The proposal emphasizes the need for cost-utility models, improved surgeon training, and embracing new technologies like digitalization to enhance surgical outcomes.
