The IMP²ART programme is supporting the next generation of researchers. To date, two BMedSci and two MPH students have completed projects directly involved with IMP2ART. We also support PhD students, one who conducted an observational study nested within the IMP2ART programme. Student projects completed Effectiveness of review templates on the process and clinical outcomes in asthma and other chronic care management: a systematic review Patients’ and healthcare professionals’ views and experiences on template use in routine management of asthma and other long-term conditions: A systematic review of qualitative evidence Developing a theoretically informed asthma review template to support self-management in primary care: a qualitative study exploring the views of professionals Exploring patient views on resources to support asthma self-management: a qualitative study PhD students Image Emma-Jane Kinley Based at: University of Edinburgh PhD project: Delivery of Support Self-Management in Asthma reviews: A Mixed Methods Observational Study Nested in the IMP²ART Programme of work PhD completed in 2023 Nested within IMP2ART, this observational PhD study contributed to the programme’s process evaluation through video and audio recording routine asthma reviews. The findings were derived from a sub-sample of IMP2ART primary care practices (both implementation and control practices), and aimed to provide an in-depth exploration into health professional delivery of supported self-management through individual behaviours and communications within asthma consultations. To pilot the data collection and analysis processes for the study, Emma visited a practice in Bath, England in September 2021. Previously involved with the pilot processes of IMP2ART, this practice was not recruited to the IMP2ART programme (implementation or control group) but had helpful knowledge of the programme and kindly agreed for a pilot data collection session to take place for Emma's PhD study. Following the pilot, Emma recruited IMP2ART control practices in the autumn of 2021 to be involved in the data collection of the study, followed by IMP2ART implementation group practices. In total, Emma aimed to video/audio record n>10 individual health care professionals (5 from the IMP2ART control group, 5 from the IMP2ART implementation group). Each recording session aimed to capture a full morning/afternoon or day’s asthma clinic, with an expected 30-50 individual asthma reviews in total to code and analyse, in addition to n>10 individual health care professional interviews to transcribe and qualitatively analyse. Once data collection, coding and analysis took place, Emma completed the write up of her thesis and has now graduated. Publications Kinley, E, Skene, I, Steed, E, Pinnock, H, McClatchey, K.

This has stimulated thought about how the team evaluate facilitation and has provided the impetus to conduct a literature review on how other scholars have approached the issue of how facilitation is evaluated. Her next milestone is her 9-month review. Image Md.
