KT Canada National Seminar Series - April 2016
2016-04-14 12:00 - 13:00
KT Canada Presents: Anna Gagliardi

Title:
Patient-mediated knowledge translation (PKT) interventions for clinical encounters

Objectives:

Learn about a variety of approaches and strategies for engaging patients in their own health care
Understand how those approaches and strategies have been employed for patients with arthritis or cancer
Identify outcomes associated with these interventions
Discuss gaps in knowledge that warrant further research

is a Scientist at the University Health Network’s Toronto General Hospital Research Institute and an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto. She held a five-year Canadian Institutes of Health Research New Investigator salary award from 2008 to 2013 to specialize in knowledge translation. Currently Anna’s research focuses on how: (1) clinical practice guidelines can be better-designed to support health care decision-making by consumers and health professionals; (2) multidisciplinary teamwork can be supported to improve satisfaction with, and the efficiency of health care delivery; (3) higher risk implantable medical devices can be monitored to prevent or minimize patient harm; and (4) person-centred care can be implemented and evaluated.
