Evaluating public and patient involvement in interventional research - A newly developed checklist (EPPIIC)

PLoS ONE - NON-UK!

5th November 2024

Public and patient involvement (PPI) has been identified as an increasingly desired and, often, required component of trial methodology - leading to higher quality, more accessible and relevant clinical research, alongside increased recruitment, funding success and insight into research impact. However, despite the great variety of frameworks and checklists avail - able for assessing PPI, most are limited with respect to important features (e. g. applicable in specific contexts only, fail to clarify what should be assessed and reported, lack the neces - sary comprehensiveness or are biased in favour of researcher reporting). Thus, the current research aimed to address such limitations through the development of a new checklist, the EPPIIC, through review, thematic analysis and 'meta - evaluation' in conjunction with PPI engagement. Upon completion of the EPPIIC, three thematic 'sub - scales' emerged: (1) Pol - icy & Practice, (2) Participatory Culture and (3) Influence & Impact. All findings are pre - sented and discussed in light of theory and research. Notably, findings recommend EPPIIC as a useful means of assessing PPI in future trials. [less]

Patient and public involvement in the design of an international clinical trial, real world experience

BMC - Research Involvement and Engagement

2024

Patient and public involvement (PPI) in the development of funding applications to deliver clinical trials is desirable, but the PPI activities and processes involved at this early, pre - award stage are rarely reported. In the current paper we describe such activities during a 12 - month project to develop a grant proposal for a substantive, international clinical trial. Three PPI partners were co - recipients of seed funding to conduct the 12 - month Accelerator project, an additional 22 PPI partners being subsequently recruited to co - develop the funding application for the trial, entitled the Rheumatoid Arthritis Prevention: catalysing PlatfORm Trial (RAPPORT). PPI partners contributed through meetings, email discussions and the completion of feedback forms. The PPI processes used in the project were evaluated by 16 of the PPI partners using an anonymous online feedback form. The form asked about the areas covered by the UK Standards for Public Involvement. PPI partners indicated that PPI in RAPPORT was done well in relation to all areas of the UK Standards. PPI partners felt they were heard, and their input valued, and that the communication was effective. Furthermore, they appreciated online format of the PPI activities, the flexible levels of involvement offered and the support from staff with expertise in both research and PPI. Some areas for potential improvement in future initiatives were also identified, which are discussed alongside challenges to co - development of projects during the pre - award stage in general, and the benefit of seed funding to support effective PPI.

Listening Tour area report - Wealden District, May - August 2024

Healthwatch East Sussex

Published: November 2024

Healthwatch East Sussex has previously undertaken an annual Listening Tour to a single part of East Sussex to intensively engage local people on their experiences of health and care. For 2024 we have adapted our approach to the Listening Tour and are visiting three areas to increase our reach and understand the priorities of a range of local communities. Our Listening Tour uses a variety of activities to hear people's experiences of accessing and using health and care services. We do this through surveys, discussion groups, and listening events. We use the feedback received to make recommendations to health and care partners to support positive changes to local services. This report relates to what we heard in our Listening Tour in the Wealden District between May and August 2024 [less]
