“…One systematic review 4 included any qualified nurse working as substitute to a primary care physician such as nurse practitioner, practice nurse, health visitor, and others. In the other systematic review 5 and three RCTs, 6–8 general practice nurses were called nurse practitioners. In the remaining studies, nurses were called community nurse, 9,10 registered nurse, 11 or primary health‐care nurse 12…”

This paper reports on a systematic review that sought to answer the research question: What is the impact of the primary and community care nurse on patient health outcomes compared with usual doctor-led care in primary care settings? A range of pertinent text-words with medical subject headings were combined and electronic databases were searched. Because of the volume of published articles, the search was restricted to studies with high-level evidence. Overall, 31 relevant studies were identified and included in the review. We found modest international evidence that nurses in primary care settings can provide effective care and achieve positive health outcomes for patients similar to that provided by doctors. Nurses are effective in care management and achieve good patient compliance. Nurses are also effective in a more diverse range of roles including chronic disease management, illness prevention and health promotion. Nevertheless, there is insufficient evidence about primary care nurses' roles and impact on patient health outcomes.

“…This is a major limitation 126 of this study and other published studies. 120,127,128 However, the two concurrent trials do address this issue to some extent. In a trial of nurse practitioners in ten general practices, the finding of a wide variation in mean patient satisfaction scores across the clinicians (doctors and nurses) underlines the influence of the individual practitioner, 116 and is a key issue that must be addressed in future similar trials.…”

HTA NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. Suggestions for topics are actively sought from people working in the NHS, the public, consumer groups and professional bodies such as Royal Colleges and NHS Trusts.Research suggestions are carefully considered by panels of independent experts (including consumers) whose advice results in a ranked list of recommended research priorities. The HTA Programme then commissions the research team best suited to undertake the work, in ...

“…A large-scale Health Technology Assessment (HTA)-funded study of doctor-led versus nurse-led care in a bronchiectasis clinic found that patients were happy with a nurse-led clinic because it provided better continuity of care. 107 It is therefore important to understand what patients value about the different aspects of the service that they receive.…”
