Nurse specialist care for bronchiectasis

Review

https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD004359

Differences between protocol and review

This review includes a new review author team.

Outcome measures include the following.

  1. The new review author team reordered primary and secondary outcomes and included data on patient satisfaction and cost‐effectiveness not previously reported.

  2. Hospital admission was changed to a primary outcome, in addition to exacerbations.

  3. Lung function was changed to a secondary outcome, as it is unlikely to show significant differences in stable bronchiectasis.

New methods include the following.

  1. Since the last review, changes to search methods and standard airways protocol have occurred; these have been included in this update.

  2. Assessment of risk of bias has been updated. Results have been presented in the 'Summary of findings' table.

In the previous review, the first review author and Diana Bilton were involved in the only trial analysed in the review.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

*The risk in the intervention group (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).

12MWT: 12‐minute walk test; CI: confidence interval; FEV1: forced expiratory volume in one second; MD: mean difference; RCT: randomised controlled trial; SGRQ: St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence.
High certainty: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect.
Moderate certainty: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different.
Low certainty: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of the effect.
Very low certainty: We have very little confidence in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be substantially different from the estimate of effect.

aCannot rule out carryover effects from cross‐over trial. No reported information at first 12‐month time period before cross‐over. May have had a learned effect that resulted in fewer exacerbations and hospitalisations and better quality of life. This may have led to better lung function and exercise capacity. Marked down one point for risk of bias.

bAge of study, small number of participants, and uncertainty, with some results based on wide confidence intervals. Marked down one point for imprecision.

cCannot rule out selective reporting with the decision not to cross‐over 6 participants after first 12 months. No longer considered stable bronchiectasis. Already marked down for risk of bias previously, so not downgraded again based on this reason.
