How healthcare professionals experience patient participation in designing healthcare services and products. A qualitative study in the field of spinal cord injury in Switzerland
Traditionally, healthcare professionals and researchers have acted as a driving force in planning and designing healthcare services and products [1 –4]. Indeed, we observe that while current healthcare research emphasizes the importance of patient-centered care [5], there is limited concern for the patient’s input on how to achieve patient-centeredness [6–9]. This raises important questions as to why patients who are the intended benefici aries of patient-centered care are often not more actively involved in determining what such care should look like.

Best-practices for the design and development of prescription medication information: A systematic review
Expansive evidence has indicated that consumers lack adequate understanding of their prescription medications, which can lead to medication errors, adverse drug events (ADEs) or suboptimal treatment benefits. Numerous seminal reports have identified and targeted problems with specific aspects of prescription labeling and written information sources. In the past decade, several reviews have sought to consolidate this evidence and establish best-practices for the design of prescription medication information (PMI) [1 –3].

Who ’s distressed? A comparison of diabetes-related distress by type of diabetes and medication
Managing diabetes is not easy. Polonsky and associates describe diabetes as a “complex, demanding, and often confusing set of self-care directives” in which “patients may become frustrated, angry, overwhelmed, and/or discouraged” (p. 626) [1]. Accordingly, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) position statement recommends psychosocial assessment as an integrated pa rt of routine care for people with diabetes (Young-Hyman, 2016) [2].

Registered Nurses ’ communication about patients’ use of complementary therapies: A national survey
Healthcare in many industrialised countries, including Australia, has undergone significant changes in recent decades. Alongside the increasing prevalence of chronic disease and the rise in complexity in delivering healthcare services, there has been increasing utilisation of complementary therapies (CTs) among the general public [1]. CT is an umbrella term that encompasses a broad range of healthcare products and practices with a history of use outside of mainstream medical practice [2]. Other terms commonly used to describe this large group of therapies include complementary and alternative medicine, natural medicine and...

Deaf patient-provider communication and lung cancer screening: Health Information National Trends survey in American Sign Language (HINTS-ASL)
In the U.S., tobacco products inhaled into the lungs are the greatest preventable cause of death. Smoking causes almost nine out of ten lung cancer deaths [1]. Using data from a 2015 national survey, it was estimated that over 50% of cigarette smokers were motivated to quit, but less than ten percent followed through, leaving a sizable group that may benefit from adhering to lung cancer screening recommendations [2].

A Concept Analysis of Patient Participation in Intermediate Care
Patient participation has developed from a marginal phenomenon to a well-established concept in public welfare, both nationally and internationally, and has been strengthened through laws and regulations [2 –4]. The term patient participation can be defined as “a patient’s rights and opportunities to influence and engage in the decision making about his care through a dialogue attuned to his preferences, potential and a combination of his experiential and the professional’s expert knowledge” [5].

Promoting men ’s knowledge of cancer risk reduction: A systematic review of interventions
Cancer incidence and mortality among men is higher than women for non-gender specific cancers [1 –6]. In 2012, the estimated incidence rates were almost one quarter higher among men than women [7]. Cancer accounts for 33% of deaths among men compared to approximately 20% among women [7,8]. Reasons for these trends are not fully understood [3]. Inequities in population health status are relate d to inequalities in absolute income and social status, often referred to as the social gradient in health.
