Healthcare systems around the world have set ambitious targets to design and deliver more environmentally sustainable healthcare. To achieve these targets, individuals, teams, organisations, and whole systems will have to change current attitudes, practices and processes. Change management theory advocates for early identification of the influencing forces to change, so that actions can be taken to overcome the barriers and strengthen the facilitators to increase the likelihood of success. This project undertook a forcefield analysis exercise to identify the barriers and facilitators to the design and delivery of sustainable healthcare in Scotland. The exercise identified 12 facilitators and 12 barriers to sustainable change and formulated ten recommendations to strengthen the former and overcome the latter. It is hoped that the results will raise awareness of the factors that influence the design and delivery of sustainable healthcare and will inform what actions can be taken to increase the likelihood of success.

Barriers and Facilitators of User Engagement With Digital Mental Health Interventions for People With Psychosis or Bipolar Disorder: Systematic Review and Best-Fit Framework Synthesis.
JMIR Ment Health
January 2025
Division of Psychology and Mental Health, University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom.
Background: Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) to monitor and improve the health of people with psychosis or bipolar disorder show promise; however, user engagement is variable, and integrated clinical use is low.
Objective: This prospectively registered systematic review examined barriers and facilitators of clinician and patient engagement with DMHIs, to inform implementation within real-world settings.
Methods: A systematic search of 7 databases identified empirical studies reporting qualitative or quantitative data about factors affecting staff or patient engagement with DMHIs aiming to monitor or improve the mental or physical health of people with psychosis or bipolar disorder.

Infectious diabetic wounds pose an arduous threat to contemporary healthcare. The combination of refractory biofilms, persistent inflammation, and retarded angiogenesis can procure non-unions and life-threatening complications, calling for advanced therapeutics potent to orchestrate anti-infective effectiveness, benign biocompatibility, pro-reparative immunomodulation, and angiogenic regeneration. Herein, embracing the emergent "living bacterial therapy" paradigm, a designer probiotic-in-hydrogel wound dressing platform is demonstrated.

Despite the successful rollout of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and positive ART outcomes in the Kingdom of Eswatini, adolescents still present poor ART outcomes including low viral load suppression and suboptimal ART adherence. The aim of the study was to explore the perceptions of adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) on the barriers and facilitators to ART adherence in Eswatini. We conducted a qualitative study using in-depth interviews among 29 ALHIV and on ART in Eswatini in December 2023.

Introduction: Prolonged sleep deprivation and poor sleep quality are common complaints among pregnant and postpartum women, and they have adverse effects on the physiological and psychological well-being of mothers antenatally and postnatally.
Objectives: The aim of this project was to improve antenatal and postnatal mothers' night-time sleep quality during hospitalization in an obstetric ward through multi-faceted interventions.
Methods: This project followed the JBI Model of Evidence-based Healthcare and applied the seven phases of the JBI Evidence Implementation Framework to conduct context analysis, strategy implementation, and review of practice using evidence-based audit criteria.
