RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Sleep is an essential element for patients' recovery during a period of hospitalisation. Hospital Clínic de Barcelona has developed the ClíNit project to promote patients' sleep by identifying elements that affect the quality of sleep and implementing actions to improve rest at night. OBJECTIVE: Our aim is to select actions to improve sleep quality. METHODS: The study population included night-shift nurses from two clinical units where the pilot actions were to be carried out (n: 14). The nurses prioritised actions to improve sleep quality using the methodology proposed by Fogg: clarification, magic wand, crispification, and the focus-mapping technique. RESULTS: Two sessions were organised for each unit and 32 actions considered high impact and easy to implement were proposed, of which 43.75% (14/32) were directly dependent on nurses. It was then agreed to implement four of these pilot studies. CONCLUSIONS: One aspect worth highlighting is that using prioritization techniques such as the Fogg technique is a good strategy to implement the general objectives of intervention programmes in large organizations in an easy way.

The aim was to develop a conceptual framework for the assessment of new healthcare initiatives on chronic diseases within the Spanish National Health System. A comprehensive literature review between 2002 and 2013, including systematic reviews, meta-analysis, and reports with evaluation frameworks and/or assessment of initiatives was carried out; integrated care initiatives established in Catalonia were studied and described; and semistructured interviews with key stakeholders were performed. The scope and conceptual framework were defined by using the brainstorming approach.Of 910 abstracts identified, a total of 116 studies were included. They referred to several conceptual frameworks and/or assessment indicators at a national and international level. An overall of 24 established chronic care initiatives were identified (9 integrated care initiatives); 10 in-depth interviews were carried out. The proposed conceptual framework envisages: 1)the target population according to complexity levels; 2)an evaluation approach of the structure, processes, and outcomes considering the health status achieved, the recovery process and the maintenance of health; and 3)the dimensions or attributes to be assessed. The proposed conceptual framework will be helpful has been useful to develop indicators and implement them with a community-based and result-oriented approach and a territorial or population-based perspective within the Spanish Health System. This will be essential to know which are the most effective strategies, what are the key elements that determine greater success and what are the groups of patients who can most benefit.
El objetivo del trabajo fue desarrollar un marco conceptual para la evaluación de nuevos programas de gestión clínica y asistencial de carácter integrado en el Sistema Nacional de Salud para la atención a las personas con enfermedades crónicas. Se realizó una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura entre 2002-2013 incluyendo revisiones sistemáticas, metaanálisis e informes con modelos de evaluación y/o evaluaciones de programas. Se estudiaron y describieron programas locales de atención a la cronicidad implementados en Cataluña y se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con expertos clave en el ámbito catalán. El alcance y el marco conceptual se definieron mediante la técnica del brainstorming. De 910 resúmenes identificados, se incluyeron 116 documentos que se referían a marcos conceptuales e indicadores de evaluación a nivel español e internacional. Se identificaron 24 programas de atención a la cronicidad (9 de carácter integrado). El marco conceptual propuesto contempló: 1) la población diana según niveles de complejidad; 2) un enfoque de evaluación de la estructura, procesos y resultados teniendo en cuenta el estado de salud conseguido, el proceso de recuperación y mantenimiento de la salud; y 3) las dimensiones o atributos que se deben evaluar. El marco conceptual propuesto permite desarrollar indicadores e implementarlos con un enfoque comunitario, orientados a los resultados y tener una visión territorial o poblacional, que será imprescindible para saber cuál es la estrategia más efectiva, cuáles son los elementos que determinan un mayor éxito y cuáles son los grupos de pacientes que más se pueden beneficiar.
