These findings are particularly significant when viewed in the context of the delivery of maternity services across the public and private sectors in Australia, existing state and national guidelines relating to maternity care, and availability of supporting resources.
However, these assesments have applications in different areas of functioning than the PC-PART (e.g. performance in education, work, leisure tasks and body functions) and vary in the degree and manner in which they incorporate the need for, and availability of, supports, resources or assistance into their scoring [ 47– 50].
Distance from the transplant center, the need to relocate closer to the center and availability of support and resources both at home and locally around the center are likely to be important determinants of out-of-pocket costs.
The structure-related resources and organizational learning probably also have a major, but indirect, role in the sense that the whole process of care tends to be better for providers that have greater availability of support services, possibilities for specialization, and enough resources for continuous improvements in care practices.
Within the healthcare system domain, there is a need to consider healthcare accessibility, number of hospital beds, availability of resources, structure of payment, availability of support personnel (i.e., nurses, midwives, and technicians) and overall treatment capacities.
Third, we have not explored all possible sources of regional variation in later-life obesity risk, such as racial composition of the birth region, availability of resources supporting maternal and child health, or exposure to harmful pollutants.
Implementing care bundles and increasing compliance with them relies not only on individual health care professionals but even more on the availability of adequate resources, support systems and leadership.
This evidence of an intervention effect complements that derived from analyses of the trial's main outcomes (structure indicators of availability of key resources supporting service delivery, process errors in management of pneumonia, malaria and diarrhoea/dehydration, and outcome indicators of adherence to key policy recommendations) [ 18] and suggests broader benefits than so far reported.
We used self-administered questionnaires (SAQ) to seek health worker views of availability of key resources supporting paediatric care linked to a cluster randomized trial of a multifaceted intervention aimed at improving this care conducted in eight rural Kenyan district hospitals.
