Upper Limb Prosthetics

People who either use an upper limb prosthesis and/or have used services provided by a prosthetic rehabilitation centre, hereafter called users, are yet to benefit from the fast-paced growth in academic knowledge within the field of upper limb prosthetics. Crucially over the past decade, research has acknowledged the limitations of conducting laboratory-based studies for clinical translation. This has led to an increase, albeit rather small, in trials that gather real-world user data. Multi-stakeholder collaboration is critical within such trials, especially between researchers, users, and clinicians, as well as policy makers, charity representatives, and industry specialists. This paper presents a co-creation model that enables researchers to collaborate with multiple stakeholders, including users, throughout the duration of a study. This approach can lead to a transition in defining the roles of stakeholders, such as users, from participants to co-researchers. This presents a scenario whereby the boundaries between research and participation become blurred and ethical considerations may become complex. However, the time and resources that are required to conduct co-creation within academia can lead to greater impact and benefit the people that the research aims to serve.

The increased diversity and complexity of plastics used in modern devices, such as electrical and electronic equipment (EEE), can have negative impacts on their recyclability. Today, the main economic driver for waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) recycling stems from metal recovery. WEEE plastics recycling, on the other hand, still represents a major challenge. Strategies like design ‘for’, but also the much younger concept of design ‘from’ recycling play a key role in closing the material loops within a circular economy. While these strategies are usually analysed separately, this brief report harmonises them in comprehensive Design for Circularity guidelines, established in a multi-stakeholder collaboration with industry leaders from the entire WEEE value chain. The guidelines were developed at the product and part levels. They are divided in five categories: (1) avoidance of hazardous substances; (2) enabling easy access and removal of hazardous or polluting parts; (3) use of recyclable materials; (4) use of material combinations and connections allowing easy liberation; (5) use of recycled materials. These guidelines are the first harmonised set to be released for the EEE industry. They can readily serve decision-makers from different levels, including product designers and manufacturers as well as policymakers.

Introduction:Developing clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) is a collaborative, multi-stakeholder enterprise. Over the last 13 years, health technology assessment (HTA) researchers from the Institute of Health Economics (IHE) partnered in a unique manner with provincial clinicians and stakeholders to develop and update CPGs using an innovative adaptation method. The complexities, intricacies, and attributes for success are presented, with emphasis on the role played by HTA resources.Methods:A governance structure (Advisory Committee, Steering Committee, Guideline Development Group) was designed to provide adequate oversight and quick, effective decision making, facilitate progress of the activities, and provide a mechanism for involving a wide variety of participants in the guideline development processes—stakeholders who represent policy, multidisciplinary care practice, knowledge translation, and research.Results:The HTA researchers served various functions and played multiple translation roles in the guideline development process: acting as a hub for connecting researchers with government to address relevant policy questions; liaising with committees to translate clinical queries into searchable questions for information specialists; preparing background documents and compiling discussion materials to expedite review by committees; connecting committees with external stakeholders such as the provincial CPG program; and bringing lay advisors into the final review process. Elements for success included effective communication, development and use of consistent methods, reliance on the highest quality of research evidence, willingness to contribute and share expertise, awareness of other initiatives and projects, transparency and openness, efficiency, flexibility, respect, enthusiasm, commitment, and patience.Conclusions:The development of CPGs requires the establishment of sophisticated multi-stakeholder collaboration and time. HTA agencies are well positioned to be an effective translation hub connecting the various stakeholders by virtue of their inherent ability to communicate in the language of policy makers, clinicians, and patients, so that all participants understand enough to add their voice to the process.

Abstract Integrated care is seen as a solution for addressing Europe’s changing demographics and dealing with the fragmented delivery of health and care services affecting numerous healthcare systems. The SCIROCCO tool is an online participatory tool which helps to facilitate multi-stakeholder dialogues on progress towards integrated care. It does so by: Defining maturity to adopt integrated care in terms of the Maturity Model developed by the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (B3 Action Group on Integrated Care).Assessing the maturity of healthcare systems.Assessing the maturity requirements of good practices.Supporting twinning and coaching for “knowledge transfer” to facilitate the adoption of integrated care and exchange of good practices. Knowledge transfer is seen as mutually beneficial for involved regions to access evidence and learn about integrated care. In SCIROCCO, there are two variants of twinning: the first has the aim of transferring a good practice to the healthcare system, while the second is about the improvement of a particular aspect of a healthcare system in order to improve integrated care maturity. Twinning is becoming ever more popular as an approach, and - in 2019/2020 - is being used in a number of European projects. The SCIROCCO tool was evaluated both quantitatively and qualitatively. Validity and reliability were evaluated using quantitative analyses while usability and perceptions on impact were assessed using questionnaires and focus groups. It was used by more than 60 healthcare organisations in Europe and beyond during 2016-2018. Most recently, it was tested in twinning and coaching activities, which resulted in the development of local Action Plans outlining steps forward on integrated care for the receiving regions. As part of the SCIROCCO Exchange project, an enhanced SCIROCCO tool is developed. This tool will improve existing knowledge transfer activities by allowing for the easy searching of assets on integrated care from a variety of sources, supporting improvement planning and checking evolution towards plans. The objectives of this workshop are: Presenting the main functionalities of the SCIROCCO toolOutlining the results of its overall evaluationDiscussing the experiences that 2 regions have had with using the SCIROCCO tool for knowledge transferPresenting progress and next steps during SCIROCCO Exchange for an enhanced SCIROCCO toolPresenting plans for evaluating the enhanced SCIROCCO toolGathering input from workshop participants on how the enhanced SCIROCCO tool could even better support knowledge transfer in different regions. Key messages The experience of regions and evaluation results demonstrate the benefits of the SCIROCCO tool for facilitating multi-stakeholder collaboration and learning towards improving integrated care. The progress and plans for the SCIROCCO Exchange tool, enhanced with the feedback and suggestions of workshop participants, offer promise for even better support for knowledge transfer.

Water pollution exerts major stress on water systems and the challenge is to ensure security in river basins for both water-dependent activities and for the aquatic ecosystems. The workshop focused on protection of good ecological status, quality criteria, priorities for action, and on achievement of sustainable improvements. The three keynote speakers presented the concept applied in the EU Water Framework Directive, the need for a multi-stakeholder collaboration in order to reach a good ecological status of waters and a concrete example of interactive planning of water protection measures in a transboundary lake. The additional paper presentations addressed specific pollution problems in catchments, the effect of environmental user fees and ecosystem indicators.
