Sitting BP was measured at the clinic visit before surgery (Clinic BP). On the day of surgery, BP was measured 1 hour before surgery (Pre BP). During the surgery, BP was measured every 5 minutes. Clinic BP and Pre BP were averaged and defi ned as baseline BP. First 3 BP measurements during surgery were averaged and defi ned as operative BP. Max BP was the maximum BP values during surgery. Characteristics, pharmacological records and blood chemistry of the patients were collected. The predictive ability of baseline BP for excessive operative BP elevation was evaluated using receiver-operated characteristic analysis.Results Twenty-eight patients (63.6 %) were treated with antihypertensive drugs (HT group). The average changes from baseline to operative BP were ϩ 13.9 Ϯ 13.9/8.4 Ϯ 8.7 mmHg (baseline BP:134.7 Ϯ 13.9/74.4 Ϯ 10.6 vs operative BP: 148.6 Ϯ 22.6/82.9 Ϯ 10.9, P Ͻ 0.05). Max BP was 152.8 Ϯ 23.4/83.5 Ϯ 11.5 mmHg. In 8 patients (18.2 %), systolic BP (SBP) reached 170 mmHg (excessive riser). Operative and Max SBP were significantly correlated with baseline SBP (operative BP: r ϭ 0.67, P Ͻ 0.01, Max BP: r ϭ 0.70, P Ͻ 0.01) but not with age. The magnitude of the changes of SBP was not associated with baseline SBP. Max SBP in HT were significantly higher than non-HT (159.0 Ϯ 18.0 vs143.3 Ϯ 3.3, P Ͻ 0.01). In the subgroup of excessive riser, baseline SBP and increment SBP were signifi cantly greater (151.1 Ϯ 13.0 vs130.7 Ϯ 14.9, P Ͻ 0.01 and ϩ 24.2 Ϯ 19.0 vs ϩ 11.4 Ϯ 15.1, P Ͻ 0.05, respectively) . Multiple regression analyses indicated that Max SBP was signifi cantly associated with baseline SBP (ß1.05, P Ͻ 0.01) . Pre SBP predicted excessive riser more accurately than Clinic SBP and the cut off values of that at maximum sensitivity (75.0 %) and specifi city (78.8 %) was 144 mmHg. Design and MethodsAfter consent, renal patients with self-reported hypertension (n ϭ 35) used a tablet to complete a pre-questionnaire assessing knowledge of salt, read through an online educational tool, and completed a post-questionnaire. Recommended daily sodium intake and consequences linked to high salt intake were the most improved items. After 2 weeks, patients repeated the questionnaire at home. ResultsBefore the educational tool, patients answered 3 to 9(m ϭ 7) of the questions correctly. Immediately following the tool, this number had increased to 6 to 10 (m ϭ 9) (P Ͻ 0.01). It took 20-25 minutes to complete the questionnaires and the tool. After 2 weeks, some, but not all of the knowledge was retained (6 to 10 (m ϭ 8). Satisfaction with the online educational tool was reported by 97% of patients, and 86% found the...

Do health service waiting areas contribute to the health literacy of consumers? A scoping review

“…The second type was interactive platforms (i.e. web-based educational modules) delivered via touchscreen computer kiosks or tablets ( n = 15) ( Pendleton et al , 2010 ; Price et al , 2010 ; Khan et al , 2011 ; Leijon et al , 2011 ; Yacoub and Mehta, 2011 ; Braam et al , 2012 ; Arora et al , 2013 ; Schwarz et al , 2013 ; Bailey et al , 2016 ; Pineda-del Aguila et al , 2018 ; Dempsey et al , 2019 ; Grant et al , 2019 ; Bertholet et al , 2020 ; Hendricks et al , 2020 ; Callegari et al , 2021 ). Written health information delivered via posters, brochures or handouts ( n = 10) ( Houry et al , 2010 , 2011 ; Pydah and Howard, 2010 ; Giannitsioti et al , 2016 ; Natt et al , 2017 ; Berkhout et al , 2018a ; Ginat and Christoforidis, 2018 ; Dowling et al , 2019 ; Ismail et al , 2019 ; Krebs et al , 2019 ; Kripalani et al , 2019 ) and a combination of types have also been trialled in different settings (i.e.…”

“…Interventions reported in included articles covered five broad categories: (i) health promotion and prevention, (ii) health screening, (iii) health condition or treatment, (iv) health services and (v) other. Health promotion and prevention topics included sexual health, vaccination, healthy lifestyle, oral health and smoking cessation ( Pendleton et al , 2010 ; Eubelen et al , 2011 ; Leijon et al , 2011 ; Braam et al , 2012 ; Schwarz et al , 2013 ; Snead et al , 2014 ; Bailey et al , 2016 ; Pawar et al , 2016 ; Shah et al , 2016 ; Kamimura et al , 2017 ; Pereira et al , 2017 ; Alnasser et al , 2018 ; Berkhout et al , 2018a ; Dineley et al , 2018 ; Cardoso et al , 2019 ; Dempsey et al , 2019 ; McNab and Skapetis, 2019 ; Bertholet et al , 2020 ; Callegari et al , 2021 ).
