Article Abstract

The Omaha System has been providing a useful clinical documentation structure for health practice, education, and research since 1975. To understand its current applications, we updated a literature review from 2013, using the same descriptors ('Omaha System') which resulted in 559 documents. After applying filters and different forms of screening, 35 papers published from 2012 to 2022 composed the final sample for the review. From its critical analysis we realized that the Omaha System is still a valuable tool for the evaluation of health care outcomes in a variety of settings. Its benefits include promoting communication, supporting evidence-based dec;ision-making, and improving the quality of care and it is interoperable with other classifications and terminologies in healthcare. The use of the Omaha System still enables a consistent integration between patient, community, and health professionals, ensuring the collection and analysis of data that contributes to holistic care in a multidisciplinary approach.

Background: With the availability of more advanced and effective treatments, life expectancy has improved among patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC), but this makes communication with their medical oncologist more complex. Some patients struggle to learn about their therapeutic options and to understand and articulate their preferences. Mobile health (mHealth) apps can enhance patient-provider communication, playing a crucial role in the diagnosis, treatment, quality of life, and outcomes for patients living with MBC.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) portends a devastating prognosis for patients, with survival typically being < 5 to 8 years after diagnosis. Limited clinical trial data exist to guide treatment strategies, and the efficacy of current strategies-immunomodulation and antifibrotics-remains uncertain. Large randomized controlled trials are costly, but pragmatic trial designs could reduce expenses.

Effective locomotion requires physiological systems to adapt to instabilities. While gait perturbation recovery often appears rapid, it is possible that longer-lasting effects may be present. Therefore, this study explored recovery trends of gait dynamics following an experimenter-induced perturbation.

Background: Based on results from preclinical and clinical studies, a five-drug combination of isoniazid, rifapentine, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, and clofazimine was identified with treatment shortening potential for drug-susceptible tuberculosis; the Clo-Fast trial aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of this regimen. We compared 3 months of isoniazid, rifapentine, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, and clofazimine, administered with a clofazimine loading dose, to the standard 6 month regimen of isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol in drug-susceptible tuberculosis.

Methods: Clo-Fast was a phase 2c open-label trial recruiting participants at six sites in five countries.
