In Nederland is een instrument nodig om persoonlijk herstel te meten bij mensen met ernstige psychische aandoeningen ten behoeve van Routine Outcome Measuring (ROM). Het doel van het huidige project waarvan verslag wordt gedaan, is om de ervaringen met het gebruik van deze vragenlijst nader te onderzoeken en vast te stellen of het instrument geschikt is gebruik in de praktijk van de GGZ bij ernstige psychische aandoeningen. Presentatie bij de wetenschappelijke symposium ronde II van het 13e Landelijke Phrenos Psychosecongres. Zwolle, Nederland. 23 november 2017.

Introduction The Integrated Recovery Scales (IRS) was developed by the Dutch National Expertise board for routine outcome monitoring with severe mental illnesses. This board aimed to develop a multidimensional recovery measure directed at 1. clinical recovery, 2. physical health, 3. social recovery (work, social contacts, independent living) and 4. existential, personal recovery. The measure had to be short, suited for routine outcome monitoring and present the perspective of both mental health professionals and service users with severe mental illnesses. All aspects are assessed over a period of the pas 6 months. Objectives The objective of this research is validation of the Integral Recovery Scales and to test the revelance for clinical practice and police evaluation. Methods The instrument was tested with 500 individuals with severe mental illnesses (80% individuals with a psychotic disorder), of whom 200 were followed up for 1 year. For the questions concerning clinical recovery, physical health and social recovery mental health care workers conducted semi structured interviews with people living with serious illnesses. The questions concerning personal health were self-rated. We analyzed interrater reliability, convergent and divergent validity and sensitivity to change. Results The instrument has a good validity and is easy to complete for service users and mental health care workers and appropriate for clinical and policy evaluation goals. Conclusions The Integrated Recovery Scales can be a useful instrument for a simple and meaningful routine outcome monitoring. Page: 121

PURPOSE: To investigate factors that influence participation in and needs for work and other daytime activities among individuals with severe mental illnesses (SMI). METHODS: A latent class analysis using routine outcome monitoring data from 1069 patients was conducted to investigate whether subgroups of individuals with SMI can be distinguished based on participation in work or other daytime activities, needs for care in these areas, and the differences between these subgroups. RESULTS: Four subgroups could be distinguished: (1) an inactive group without daytime activities or paid employment and many needs for care in these areas; (2) a moderately active group with some daytime activities, no paid employment, and few needs for care; (3) an active group with more daytime activities, no paid employment, and mainly met needs for care; and (4) a group engaged in paid employment without needs for care in this area. Groups differed significantly from each other in age, duration in MHC, living situation, educational level, having a life partner or not, needs for care regarding social contacts, quality of life, psychosocial functioning, and psychiatric symptoms. Differences were not found for clinical diagnosis or gender. CONCLUSIONS: Among individuals with SMI, different subgroups can be distinguished based on employment situation, daytime activities, and needs for care in these areas. Subgroups differ from each other on patient characteristics and each subgroup poses specific challenges, underlining the need for tailored rehabilitation interventions. Special attention is needed for individuals who are involuntarily inactive, with severe psychiatric symptoms and problems in psychosocial functioning.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Dietetic interventions contribute to certain health objectives and other outcomes, but are mostly part of a multimodal and multidisciplinary approach what makes evaluating the actual effects of dietitians' involvement rather complex. Although monitoring and outcome evaluation (M&OE) can provide routine data to prove the effectiveness of dietetic interventions, this has not been established yet in different dietetic settings.METHODS: A comprehensive framework for M&OE in dietetics was developed by dietetic experts from five European higher education institutes for dietetics in the course of the EU sponsored project "Improvement of Education and Competences in Dietetics (IMPECD)".RESULTS: Firstly, clear definitions on M&OE are proposed to facilitate the use of consistent terminology, with a specific emphasis on the term "impact" covering macro-level outcomes such as cost-effectiveness. Secondly, the Dietetic Care Process (DCP) was merged into a logic model to demonstrate the position of M&OE in relation to intervention planning and implementation, in both group and individual settings. Thirdly, selecting the appropriate indicators is indispensable to monitor and evaluate outcomes, and requires a high level of dietitians' critical reasoning. A categorized overview of indicators is provided to support this process. Lastly, the consortium developed a checklist to give dietitians a handle on what elements could be included in their M&OE plan and trigger them to perform M&OE in practice.CONCLUSIONS: Innovative M&OE models may help dietitians to demonstrate their effectiveness in improving clinical outcomes and justify their role in health care.

Achtergrond: Vanaf 2016 wordt in Utrecht in proeftuinen de GGZ zorg aan mensen met Ernstige Psychische Aandoeningen (EPA) gebiedsgericht uitgevoerd. Het is de bedoeling dat ervaringsdeskundigen, familie en naasten, specialistische GGZ hulpverleners, medewerkers begeleid en beschermd wonen, sociale wijkteams en eerstelijns zorgverleners nauwer gaan samenwerken. Inhoud presentatie: Door gebiedsgericht te werken kan zorg meer op maat en integraal worden aangeboden dichtbij de patiënt. Het doel van gebiedsgerichte GGZ is zorgen voor betere kansen op herstel en maatschappelijke participatie voor psychisch kwetsbare mensen. Daarnaast had het als doel het verbeteren van de ervaren kwaliteit van leven en het functioneren van de cliënten in de wijk. Op basis van Routine Outcome Monitoring, instellingsgegevens en interviews met alle betrokkenen zijn de eerste resultaten geëvalueerd die op dit congres gepresenteerd worden.

Physical activity monitoring with wearable technology has the potential to support stroke rehabilitation. Little is known about how physical therapists use and value the use of wearable activity monitors. This cross-sectional study explores the use, perspectives, and barriers to wearable activity monitoring in day-to-day stroke care routines amongst physical therapists. Over 300 physical therapists in primary and geriatric care and rehabilitation centers in the Netherlands were invited to fill in an online survey that was developed based on previous studies and interviews with experts. In total, 103 complete surveys were analyzed. Out of the 103 surveys, 27% of the respondents were already using activity monitoring. Of the suggested treatment purposes of activity monitoring, 86% were perceived as useful by more than 55% of the therapists. The most recognized barriers to clinical implementation were lack of skills and knowledge of patients (65%) and not knowing what brand and type of monitor to choose (54%). Of the non-users, 79% were willing to use it in the future. In conclusion, although the concept of remote activity monitoring was perceived as useful, it was not widely adopted by physical therapists involved in stroke care. To date, skills, beliefs, and attitudes of individual therapists determine the current use of wearable technology.

Achtergrond: Ernstige psychische aandoeningen (epa) gaan gepaard met hoge ggz- en andere zorgkosten. Om de discussie hierover tussen verzekeraars, gemeenten en ggz transparanter te voeren zijn in 2012 zorgvignetten ontwikkeld die in een regio een beeld moeten geven over de aanwezige groepen patiënten met epa, ingedeeld naar zorgintensiteit. Doel: Inzicht krijgen in de vraag hoe bruikbaar en valide deze epa-vignetten zijn in relatie tot zorgbehoeften en psychosociaal functioneren. Methode: rom-uitkomsten (zorgbehoeften en psychosociaal functioneren) van 706 patiënten werden per zorgzwaartevignet vergeleken (m.b.v. χ2-toetsen en anova’s). Voor twee complexe zorgzwaartevignetten (zorgwekkende zorgmijders en gevaar afwenden) werden verschillen in zorgbehoeften en functioneren longitudinaal onderzocht (met repeated measures-anova’s en analyses volgens McNemar). Resultaten: De vignetten waren in beperkte mate onderscheidend wat betreft zorgbehoeften en functioneren. Patiënten met vignetten ‘zorgwekkende zorgmijders’ en ‘gevaar afwenden’ hadden de meeste beperkingen in functioneren en de meeste (onvervulde) zorgbehoeften. Deze bevindingen bleken stabiel over tijd. Conclusie: De vignetten zijn onvoldoende onderscheidend. Om regionale zorgplanning te verbeteren is het wenselijk om bestaande informatie van zorgvignetten te verrijken met informatie over zorgbehoeften en functioneren
