简要总结
This study aims to codesign and implement a physical health improvement behaviour change intervention for people being treated for a mental illness in a mental health inpatient unit of a regional hospital.
详细描述
People in regional areas with mental illness suffer high prevalence of preventable chronic health conditions. Multi-morbidity in people with mental illness contributes to a reduced life expectancy of up to 20 years. Many physical diseases are preventable and/or reversable if risk factors are identified early, and the right health promotion tools and interventions are provided. Addressing such a complex issue for people with mental illness requires an approach which is adaptable, has been co-designed with clinicians and consumers and is comprehensive to target individualised health behaviours.
This research uses the Health Improvement Profile (HIP) tool to help clinicians (e.g. nurses, doctors) to assess patients physical health and identify risk factors or early signs of chronic disease. Using the Health Improvement Profile (HIP) tool during admission the clinicians will work with clients to implement the most suitable health promotion tools to help improve physical health.
Using implementation research methodology and following the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) the study is broken into the following 4 stages:
- Identify
- Adapt - codesign/adapt Health Improvement Profile (HIP) intervention and develop user training
- Implement - into clinical areas to assist developing personalised Health Improvement Profile (HIP)
- Evaluate - using both qualitative and quantitative data to determine feasibility of the Health Improvement Profile (HIP) and implementation in a regional health service

Feasibility of Health Improvement Profile
时间窗: From admission (enrolment) to post discharge period of 3 months (12 weeks)
Each Health Improvement Profile parameter has a column for recording the assessment result, followed by a column indicating the healthy 'green' range or indicating the unhealthy 'red' range (requiring action). The final column indicates the recommended action if the parameter falls into the 'red' range. Baseline assessment, (up to 27 assessment points for males and 26 assessment points for females) using the Health Improvement Profile (HIP) to identify the number of red flags, this is baseline assessment data which falls outside of normal healthy parameters. Baseline assessment will occur at pre intervention (at time of admission to the inpatient unit), during intervention use (at discharge from inpatient facility with a developed Health Improvement Profile) and post intervention (3months post discharge from inpatient facility) to determine physical health improvement against baseline assessment.
Feasibility: Time taken to recruit planned sample
时间窗: Immediately after the inclusion of the last participant
The time that was taken to recruit the planned sample size of participants
Feasibility: Retention
时间窗: at the follow-up assessment 3 months post discharge from inpatient service
Proportion of participants who completed the whole study by all participants who enrolled
Feasibility: Drop out rate
时间窗: At the follow-up assessment 3 months post discharge from inpatient service
Number of participants who dropped out , did not continue with health improvement profile after discharging from inpatient service
Reason for dropping out
时间窗: immediately on drop out notification or at 3 month follow up
Feedback from participant to identify reason for dropping out
Feasibility: Adherence
时间窗: Immediately on completion of the post discharge period at 3 months (12 weeks)
Proportion (percentage %) of recommended actions on the Health Improvement Profile (HIP) which the patient self reports as completing up to 3 months post discharge.
Participant feedback
时间窗: Immediately after completion of the follow up period of 3 months (12 weeks)
Participant qualitative feedback using open ended questions on satisfaction with the Health Improvement Profile. Analysed using standardised thematic analysis of the qualitative feedback.
