Canadian Physiotherapists Integrate Virtual Care during the COVID-19 Pandemic
CONCLUSIONS: Canadian physiotherapists exhibited high adaptability in response to COVID-19 through the rapid and widespread use of virtual care. By creating an in-depth understanding of the barriers and enablers to virtual care, along with potential interventions, this work will facilitate future opportunities to support and enhance physiotherapists' delivery of virtual care.PMID:37736382 | PMC:PMC10510558 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2022-0092

Education and implementation of home spirometry in an adolescent cystic fibrosis population
CONCLUSION: Home spirometry, when properly implemented with structured education and active participant engagement, has potential to provide meaningful data and feedback to CF care teams. Implementation of this process requires substantial resources and active participation from an adolescent population who are at higher risk for non-adherence. Future studies are needed to determine the impact of home spirometry on clinical outcomes and reliability over time and to address barriers to consistent and enduring engagement in the adolescent population.PMID:37734233 | DOI:10.1016/j.resmer.2023.101040

Our Vocabulary Is Adapting to a Hotter Planet
Discussions of climate change began even before Broecker’s paper, without any of the white-hot rhetoric that has characterized much of our approach to the issue since. In 1973, a team of environmental scientists published a paper in MIT Press under the title “Study of Man’s Impact on Climate.” They labeled that impact “inadvertent climate modification.” The phrasing, while accurate enough, never caught on. NexisLexis counts just 11 uses of the term from 1968 to 2023, with the earliest occurring on Feb. 9, 1988, on a PBS program about math and science education.

Barriers to the success of COVID-19 immunisation programs in New Ireland Province, Papua New Guinea
CONCLUSION: Vaccine hesitancy is a significant problem that has the potential to negatively affect population-level health. An urgent focused effort to strengthen immunisation programs in PNG is evident. Preventative primary health care is a national priority; however, for the successful delivery of vaccination initiatives, well-formed immunisation programs that include education that will dispel myths and misinformation are required.PMID:37730242 | DOI:10.22605/RRH7883

Resilience perspective on healthcare professionals adaptations to changes and challenges resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic: a meta-synthesis
Conclusion
Healthcare professionals demonstrated significant adaptive capacity when faced with challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several adaptations were identified as beneficial for future organisational healthcare service changes, while others exposed weaknesses in healthcare system designs and capacity, leading to dysfunctional adaptations. Healthcare professionals’ experiences working during the COVID-19 pandemic present a unique opportunity to learn how healthcare systems rapidly respond to changes, and how resilient healthcare services can be built globally.
