The Symptom Of Fatigue In Primary Care: A Comparative Study Of Health Care Utilization Patterns Using Electronic Medical Records, Kathryn A. Nicholson
The Symptom Of Fatigue In Primary Care: A Comparative Study Of Health Care Utilization Patterns Using Electronic Medical Records, Kathryn A. Nicholson
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The experience of fatigue has been a common problem among community populations for decades. The symptom of fatigue is also a frequent health complaint in primary care practices. Fatigue patients have been shown to be significantly high users of health care resources, particularly when compared to non-fatigued patient populations. To date, an understanding of the presence and the impact of the symptom of fatigue within the context of the Canadian health care system has been understudied.
The objective of this research was to determine the number of patients who were suffering from the symptom of fatigue within a primary care …
Preliminary Economic Evaluation Of Brentuximab Vedotin In Relapsed And Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma: An "Early Look" Model Based On Phase Ii Results, Vusal Babashov
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
We conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis of brentuximab vedotin for the treatment of relapsed and refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) from health care system perspective in Canada. We developed a Markov decision analytical model to simulate lifetime costs and benefits and parameterized the model using brentuximab phase II clinical trial and cd-link data which is a linked datasets of cancer registry with administrative databases of Ontario, Canada. In the base case scenario, brentuximab treatment led to an increase of 0.352 Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) per person and $108,500 per person, which resulted in incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER) of $308,532 per …

Being An Austrian Mother With Rheumatoid Arthritis: An Institutional Ethnography About The Social Organization Of Everyday Life, Birgit Prodinger
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
This institutional ethnography research explored how women with rheumatoid arthritis, who are mothers, and of employable age, go about their daily lives given their social context. The social context for this research was Austria, which is characterized by social policies based on familialism and an emphasis on employment. This context may open up various resources and possibilities about what women can do and actually do in their daily lives, and thus, directs attention to the situated nature of human occupation.
In institutional ethnography particular attention is given to the social, which suggests that daily life becomes accomplished through coordinated activities …

The Characteristics Of Successful Evidence Retrieval By Nephrologists And The Impact Of Pubmed Search Filters, Salimah Shariff
The Characteristics Of Successful Evidence Retrieval By Nephrologists And The Impact Of Pubmed Search Filters, Salimah Shariff
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Background: Clinicians frequently search PubMed to guide patient care. This study investigated the factors that impact successful searching and the utility of PubMed search filters.
Methods: A random sample of nephrologists was surveyed between 2008 and 2010; 160 valid responses were received (72% response rate). One group of 60 respondents was presented with the same two clinical questions, while the other 100 were each presented with a unique clinical question. The clinical questions were based on recently published systematic reviews. Respondents provided the search terms they would type into PubMed to address their clinical question(s). All physician-provided searches …

Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)
The objective of this study was to explore HIV testing experiences and service views of Canadian Aboriginal youth in order to provide information for HIV testing services. An exploratory, mixed-method, community-based research design was used for this study. Findings reported here are from 210 survey participants who had experienced an HIV test. Youth were recruited through 11 Aboriginal organizations across Canada, including AIDS service organizations, health centers, community organizations, and friendship centers. Youth who had tested for HIV ranged in age from 15 to 30 years of age (20% were B20), and came from First Nations (75%), Me ́ tis …
Learning From The Grandmothers: Incorporating Indigenous Principles Into Qualitative Research, Charlotte Loppie
Learning From The Grandmothers: Incorporating Indigenous Principles Into Qualitative Research, Charlotte Loppie
Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)
In this article, the author describes the process she undertook to incorporate Indigenous principles into her doctoral research about the midlife health experiences of elder Aboriginal women in Nova Scotia, Canada. By employing qual- itative methods within the context of an Indigenous worldview, she gained knowledge of and developed competence in Aboriginal health research. The emergent partnership among Aboriginal community research facilitators, participating Mi’kmaq women, and the researcher provided many opportunities for the researcher to incorporate the paradigmatic and methodological traditions of Western science and Indigenous cultures. The application of these principles to this study might provide a useful example …
