Secondary outcomes | |
---|---|
Body Mass Index (BMI). | |
Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1): standardised spirometry as a measure of condition severity [100]. | |
EuroQol EQ-5D-5 L: generic health status measure for health economic analysis [101]. | |
The Patient Activation Measure (PAM-13): assessment of patient knowledge, skill, and confidence for self-management [102]. Elements of the PAM-13 map to logic model constructs #29 and #30. | |
Confusion, Hubbub, and Order Scale (CHAOS 6-item): measure of life chaos [103]. Elements of the CHAOS-6 map to logic model construct #32. | |
Medication Adherence Data-3 items (MAD-3). Bespoke questionnaire adapted from the Medication Adherence Reporting Scale [104]: 1. I forget to take my nebuliser treatment (Always/Often/Sometimes/Rarely/Never) 2. I take fewer nebuliser treatments than my doctor recommends (Always/Often/ Sometimes/Rarely/Never) 3. I decide to skip one or more of my nebuliser treatments (Always/Often/Sometimes/Rarely/Never) Maps to logic model construct #28. | |
Self-Report Behavioural Automaticity Index (SRBAI) [105]. Maps to logic model construct #31. | |
Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R): disease specific health-related quality of life instrument [106]. | |
The Patient Health Questionnaire depression scale (PHQ-8): severity measure for depressive disorders [107]. | |
The General Anxiety Disorder 7-item anxiety scale (GAD-7): severity measure for anxiety [108]; | |
The Capability Opportunity Motivation Behaviour Beliefs Questionnaire (COM- BMQ), incorporating the validated self-report Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire - specific (Nebuliser adherence) (BMQ 21-item) [109], customised by the team to identify perceived necessities and concerns for nebuliser treatment. Elements of the COM-BMQ map to logic model constructs #7, #29 and#33. | |
Project-specific items on belief, intention and confidence | |
Subjective adherence single question: self-report estimate of adherence as a percentage. Maps to logic model construct #28. | |
Self-reported problems: identification of capability and opportunity barriers to nebuliser adherence. Maps to logic model construct #33. | |
Concomitant medications: bespoke instrument, designed for this research project. | |
Resource use form (inpatient IV days; routine clinic visits; unscheduled outpatient contacts; unscheduled inpatient stays). | |
Prescription: a monthly prescription check to both check for data transfer to CFHealthHub and review for an indication that the prescription has changed | |
Objective Adherence to prescribed medication | |
Any treatment with IV antibiotics |
