National Research Collaborative Meeting 2022

National Research Collaborative Meeting

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS!

Date: 28th Mar 2022

Overview

The 13th National Research Collaborative meeting will be a free virtual evening webinar. We are inviting abstract submissions for a Dragons’ Den, looking for innovative ideas to optimise outcomes, treatment pathways and/or care for patients on waiting lists (which may now be longer secondary to the Covid-19 pressures).

Proposals may relate to any kind of NHS service affected by long waits: for example, diagnostic (e.g. radiology, endoscopy) or treatment (e.g. elective surgery or procedures, GP appointments, outpatient clinics) services. Solutions should be patient-centred and might involve, for example: optimisation and reducing peri-operative risk; enhancing efficiency; staff recruitment and retention initiatives; outsourcing of services; technological solutions; improved screening processes; improvements to referral pathways; pre-operative or public health initiatives.

Your abstract should be structured with the following subheadings: rationale; existing evidence; study design; PICO (population, intervention, comparison, outcome); and conclusion; and should be no longer than 2000 characters / 400 words. Proposals for RCTs are preferred, but any study design will be considered. The deadline for submission is February 18th.

We encourage applications from clinicians of all specialties and grades. Multidisciplinary and collaborative approaches are particularly encouraged.

All accepted abstracts will be offered exclusive support prior to presentation in the Dragons’ Den.

The winner(s) of the Dragons’ Den will win financial support to help develop the research idea. We hope some of these abstracts will have the potential to develop into the next big research study.
