Abstract Background Alcohol is challenging to discuss, and patients may be reluctant to disclose drinking partly because of concern about being judged. This report presents an overview of the development of a medications review intervention co-produced with the pharmacy profession and with patients, which breaks new ground by seeking to give appropriate attention to alcohol within these consultations. Methods This intervention was developed in a series of stages and refined through conceptual discussion, literature review, observational and interview studies, and consultations with advisory groups. In this study we reflect on this process, paying particular attention to the methods used, where lessons may inform innovations in other complex clinical consultations. Results Early work with patients and pharmacists infused the entire process with a heightened sense of the complexity of consultations in everyday practice, prompting careful deliberation on the implications for intervention development. This required the research team to be highly responsive to both co-production inputs and data gathered in formally conducted studies, and to be committed to working through the implications for intervention design. The intervention thus evolved significantly over time, with the greatest transformations resulting from patient and pharmacist co-design workshops in the second stage of the process, where pharmacists elaborated on the nature of the need for training in particular. The original research plans provided a helpful structure, and unanticipated issues for investigation emerged throughout the process. This underscored the need to engage dynamically with changing contexts and contents and to avoid rigid adherence to any early prescribed plan. Conclusions Alcohol interventions are complex and require careful developmental research. This can be a messy enterprise, which can nonetheless shed new insights into the challenges involved in optimising interventions, and how to meet them, if embraced with an attitude of openness to learning. We found that exposing our own research plans to scrutiny resulted in changes to the intervention design that gained the confidence of different stakeholders. Our understanding of the methods used, and their consequences, may be bounded by the person-centred nature of this particular intervention.

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of E-Catalog procurement of goods and services in Kebayoran Lama District, South Jakarta Administration City, DKI Jakarta Province. This study uses a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interview studies, observation, and documentation, during data collection techniques, data reduction, data display, and verification. This study indicates that the effectiveness of the procurement of goods and services of E-Catalogue has shown success, although it has not run optimally in its application, where efficiency and effectiveness are obtained in the indicators. From the aspect of time, the process of procuring goods and services for E-Catalogue is faster because it takes 1 week at most 3 weeks, conventionally it takes more than 4 weeks. in improving the performance of the number of procurement through E-Catalogue, the procurement process has not yet supported the SOP (Standard Operating System) to carry out an overall transformation, especially in relation to constraints in the electronic procurement system, having certification of procurement of goods and services in operation Computers need the assistance of other human resources to assist their implementation, due to the lack of ability to operate computers and the program and the participation of agencies in conducting the process of procuring goods and services electronically, they are not yet aware of the importance of carrying out the procurement process goods and services that are effective and efficient, the lesson that can be learned from this research is a strong commitment from the leadership to the staff as executor in the field.

Background Pregnancy is a high-risk time for excessive weight gain. The rising prevalence of obesity in women, combined with excess weight gain during pregnancy, means that there are more women with obesity in the postnatal period. This can have adverse health consequences for women in later life and increases the health risks during subsequent pregnancies. Objective The primary aim was to produce evidence of whether or not a Phase III trial of a brief weight management intervention, in which postnatal women are encouraged by practice nurses as part of the national child immunisation programme to self-monitor their weight and use an online weight management programme, is feasible and acceptable. Design The research involved a cluster randomised controlled feasibility trial and two semistructured interview studies with intervention participants and practice nurses who delivered the intervention. Trial data were collected at baseline and 3 months later. The interview studies took place after trial follow-up. Setting The trial took place in Birmingham, UK. Participants Twenty-eight postnatal women who were overweight/obese were recruited via Birmingham Women’s Hospital or general practices. Nine intervention participants and seven nurses were interviewed. Interventions The intervention was delivered in the context of the national child immunisation programme. The intervention group were offered brief support that encouraged self-management of weight when they attended their practice to have their child immunised at 2, 3 and 4 months of age. The intervention involved the provision of motivation and support by nurses to encourage participants to make healthier lifestyle choices through self-monitoring of weight and signposting to an online weight management programme. The role of the nurse was to provide regular external accountability for weight loss. Women were asked to weigh themselves weekly and record this on a record card in their child’s health record (‘red book’) or using the online programme. The behavioural goal was for women to lose 0.5–1 kg per week. The usual-care group received a healthy lifestyle leaflet. Main outcome measures The primary outcome was the feasibility of a Phase III trial to test the effectiveness of the intervention, as assessed against three traffic-light stop–go criteria (recruitment, adherence to regular self-weighing and registration with an online weight management programme). Results The traffic-light criteria results were red for recruitment (28/80, 35% of target), amber for registration with the online weight loss programme (9/16, 56%) and green for adherence to weekly self-weighing (10/16, 63%). Nurses delivered the intervention with high fidelity. In the qualitative studies, participants indicated that the intervention was acceptable to them and they welcomed receiving support to lose weight at their child immunisation appointments. Although nurses raised some caveats to implementation, they felt that the intervention was easy to deliver and that it would motivate postnatal women to lose weight. Limitations Fewer participants were recruited than planned. Conclusions Although women and practice nurses responded well to the intervention and adherence to self-weighing was high, recruitment was challenging and there is scope to improve engagement with the intervention. Future work Future research should focus on investigating other methods of recruitment and, thereafter, testing the effectiveness of the intervention.

Indonesia's tourism potential is quite large. But in fact, tourism is still very centralized in only a few places such as Java and Bali. Even though, there are still a lot of tourist attractions that are no less interesting and beautiful, like the natural tourism of Berau Regency, which is located in East Kalimantan. Therefore, in designing this video, it is necessary to divide the narrative which is dissected using the Freytag's Pyramid narrative structure method. The research methodology used is to use qualitative methods by conducting expert interview studies who are expected to provide valid information. The divided narrative of this promotional video will be useful in the process of designing a visual study.

Waqf is one of the sources of funds that has the potential to develop the people's economy. Even history proves that waqf that is maintained and developed productively is very helpful for the interests of the community.This study aims to determine the waqf management system in Tawakua Village, Angkona District, East Luwu Regency. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Data collection techniques through interview studies to 5 informants. The results of this study indicate that the management of waqf assets is managed directly by the village, and administration of the waqf pledge deed is carried out at KUA Angkona District. However, the role of waqf as a socio-economic development has not been optimal due to the lack of public knowledge and a lack of qualified human resources in the field of waqf. Therefore, it is necessary to revitalize the management of waqf so that the function of waqf as an instrument of economic development can be achieved. Wakaf menjadi salah satu sumber dana yang memiliki potensi dalam pengembangan ekonomi umat. Bahkan sejarah membuktikan bahwa wakaf yang dipelihara dan dikembangkan secara produktifsangat membantu kepentingan masyarakat.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sistem pengelolaan wakaf di Desa Tawakua Kecamatan Angkona Kabupaten Luwu Timur. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi. Teknik pengambilan data melalui studi wawancara kepada 5 informan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan harta benda wakaf dikelola secara langsung oleh desa, dan pengurusan administrasi akta ikrar wakaf dilakukan di KUA Kecamatan Angkona. Namun peran wakaf sebagai pembangunan sosial ekonomi belum optimal karena minimnya pengetahuan masyarakat dan kurangnya sumber daya manusia yang mumpuni di bidang wakaf. Oleh karena itu revitalisasi pengelolaan wakaf perlu dilakukan agar fungsi wakaf sebagai instrumen pembangunan ekonomi dapat tercapai.

AbstractThe global spread of COVID-19 has resulted in learning and teaching being confronted with immense challenges and changes since spring 2020. Measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic had and continue to have a particularly strong impact on non-formal and informal learning, which are important features of out-of-class on-line STEM workshops combining science, technology, engineering and mathematics. We developed and carried out online STEM workshops for approximately 250 students during times of isolation in the spring and summer of 2020. To identify potential success factors and stumbling blocks for designing and implementing online STEM workshops, we conducted a qualitative interview-based study with a selection of eight experts in the summer and autumn 2020, i.e. after the STEM workshops. The experts were Austrian and German teachers who planned and implemented STEM workshops for students age 10 to 18. Our collected data was examined using techniques of grounded theory approaches. Using techniques of qualitative interview studies and grounded theory approaches, we found that removing learning barriers and creating new types of learning spaces, online socio-constructivist learning, and teachers' TPACK for STEM Workshops are important factors when considering and designing STEM workshops for online learning environments. These same factors will also be central when planning and implementing online STEM workshops in post-COVID-19 times. To facilitate student participation and to increase social interaction are critical elements for practitioners working on online STEM workshops—both during and after COVID-19. Highly trained teachers with in-depth technical, pedagogical, and content skills are essential to facilitate participation and interactions among students, teachers, and learning contents.

Children presenting with uncomplicated lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) commonly receive antibiotics despite public campaigns on antibiotic resistance. Qualitative interview studies were nested in a placebo-controlled trial of amoxicillin for LRTI in children. Thirty semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted with sixteen parents and fourteen clinicians to explore views of management and decisions to participate in the trial. All interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed and analysed using thematic analysis. Parents found it difficult to interpret symptoms and signs, and commonly used the type of cough (based on sound) to judge severity, highlighting the importance of better information to support parents. Provision of a clinical examination and reassurance regarding illness severity were key motivations for consulting. Many parents now acknowledge that antibiotics should only be used when ‘necessary’, and clinicians reported noticing a shift in parent attitudes with less demand for antibiotics and greater satisfaction with clinical assessment, reassurance and advice. Decisions to take part in the trial were influenced by the perceived risks associated with allocation to a placebo, and concerns about unnecessary use of antibiotics. Clear communication about self-management and safety-netting were identified as important when implementing ‘no antibiotic’ prescribing strategies to reassure parents and to support prescribing decisions.

In this article, we refer to the separation of solid organs from the body as bio-objects. We suggest that the transfer of these bio-objects is connected to emotions and affects that carry a range of different social and cultural meanings specific to the context of Aotearoa New Zealand. The discussion draws on research findings from a series of qualitative indepth interview studies conducted from 2008 to 2013 with Māori (the Indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand) and Pākehā (European settler New Zealanders) concerning their views on organ donation and transplantation. Our findings show both differences and similarities between Māori and Pākehā understandings of transplantation. Nevertheless, while many Māori draw on traditional principles, values and beliefs to reflect on their experiences in relation to embodiment, gift-giving, identity and well-being, Pākehā tend to subscribe to more Western understandings of identity in terms of health and well-being, in line with international literature on the topic. Rather than reflecting individualistic notions of the body and transplantation as the endpoint of healthcare as do Pākehā, Māori views are linked to wider conceptions of family, ancestry and belonging, demonstrating how different rationalities and ontologies affect practices and understandings surrounding organ transfer technology. In the article, we focus predominantly on Māori perspectives of organ transfer, contextualising the accounts and experiences of our research participants against the backdrop of a long history of settler colonialism and health inequalities in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Qualitative interview studies on sensitive topics often draw on principles of feminist methodologies which focus on developing and maintaining non-exploitative, caring relationships with participants. For early career researchers, who may have less research experience, managing relational ethical issues that arise in research relationships can be difficult. Additionally, they could experience further pressures because of their junior roles and precarious employment. In the context of health research, early career researchers working on qualitative studies may experience specific challenges because of the predominance of the biomedical paradigm in this discipline. In this article, I explore some of the relational ethical issues I deliberated as an early career researcher when working in a medical faculty on a semi-structured qualitative interview study about women’s alcohol drinking practices. I focus on two overlapping themes from my experience of ethics in practice “Trying to building and maintain relationships” and “Trying to stabilize inequalities in research relationships.” With a primary focus on how I negotiated differing responsibilities, I draw on examples from the community-based face-to-face and virtual recruitment, the fast-paced face-to-face interviews, and the process of returning interview transcripts to women to review. With this analysis, I contribute to existing literature about ethics in practice for early career researchers by indicating the types of relational ethics that will need to be navigated and the resources needed to support them. These resources include having adequate time, opportunities for reflection, and good supervisory support. I also contribute to scholarship which critiques the wider health research context by considering the challenges it can pose for early career researchers when managing relational ethical spaces in qualitative interview studies. This article will be of relevance to novice researchers and those who supervise and manage them.
