O=Post-traumatic stress disorder and symptoms Our definition of PTSD includes clinical diagnoses or validated self-report measures, and we are concerned with the literature measuring any level of PTSD symptomatology. Trauma symptoms will be included if measured by a structured clinical interview for DSM5 (SCID), or tools such as the PTSD Checklist Civilian-Version (PCL) or Impact of Event Scale (IES) validated with a SCID. Other tools will be considered if they have concurrent validity with the PCL, IES or clinical diagnosis. Self-reported diagnoses by clinicians may also be considered. We will not exclude studies that include other mental health problems as well as PTSD. We expect that the potentially traumatic events occurring in psychiatric hospitals will be more similar to those in other hospital environments than to those occurring in the community.

1. Therapeutic effects/health related outcomes: Morbidity, mortality, patient satisfaction, sleep, treatment adherence and compliance, respiratory function tests, vital signs, renal function/osmoregulation, length of stay, patient readmission; 2. Possible harms: Infections, drug interactions, side effects, complications; 3. Integration in currently existing nationally and globally heatwave plans 4. Preventive use for inpatients

The primary outcome of this study is age-related alterations in the exosomal content and functions that can influence the reproductive performance in human and animals as conveyors of senescence signals outside the cells. The secondary outcome is exosomes capability in carrying developmental signaling molecules like proteins, coding and non-coding RNA cargos, influencing gene expressions and affecting growth and regulation of embryo during pregnancy. Identification of extracellular vesicles in genital fluids express their role as a marker for pregnancy and fecundity-related pathologies. These raised the possibility that endogenous exosomes may play a significant role in modulating fertility, growth and maturity of germ cells and early embryonic development.

Outcome & COntext (comprehensive) Context: It is only over the past few decades, that women have increasingly entered male-dominated first responder workplaces such as police, fire and ambulance (Perrott 2016). The exception is nursing, where the vast majority of nurses are female, with males making up 10% of this population (Commonwealth of Australia 2014). A review of first responder information (police, fire, ambulance) describes female population percentages varying from 4 – 32% (Davey 2016; Irving 2009; Paramedics Australasia 2011). Nursing consists of a 90% female population (Commonwealth of Australia 2014) with nurses working in first responder roles e.g. flight nurses, rural/remote area nurses and emergency departments. As female cohorts are much smaller in the first responder groups (police, fire ambulance), they are frequently identified as a percentage only with further gender specific impacts not explored. This may be due in part, to the low numbers of females in the studies, with subsequent high risk of subject identification. There is minimal research available specifically examining what factors influence recruitment and retention of females in the first responder workforce. Outcomes: The quantitative component of this review will consider studies that include the following outcome measures – primary outcome : job satisfaction – any objective validated measure of employee contentedness (e.g. Quality of Life Scales, Contentment with Life Assessment Scales); secondary outcome: job burnout – any validated measure of burnout – Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), numeric rating scale/visual analogue scale; adverse effects; psychological health – measured using standard scales e.g. anxiety/depression scales, contacts with Human Resources, Employee Assistance Programs, help lines or health professionals. The qualitative component of the review will consider studies that focus on qualitative data including, but not limited to, designs much as phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography, action research and feminist research. In the absence of research studies, other text such as opinion papers and reports will be considered. The textual component of the review will consider expert opinion, discussion papers, position papers and other text. Studies adopting a mixed methods approach where data and findings of a qualitative nature are reported, will be included in this review. Equally, in mixed methods where quantitative data and results are reported for the quantitative component, these will be included in the integration of findings.

Unintended pregnancy

The phenomena of interest are the effects of educational interventions, which are inclusive of both family caregivers and individuals with HF, on outcomes for both. Relationship level outcomes are of specific interest. Relationship level outcomes are dyad congruence or incongruence, dyadic discrepancy, communication, shared decision-making, and reciprocity. Co-variates that may moderate the effects of educational interventions are also of interest. These co-variatate are configuration of the care partners’ age, gender, race, education, health literacy, marital status, socioeconomic status, co-morbidities, and knowledge. This review will consider studies that evaluate educational interventions for family caregivers and dyadic interventions. Dyadic interventions are defined as strategies tailored to the needs of both care partners. Dyadic interventions of interest target HF self-care, palliative care, and/or social support. Dyadic interventions may include strategies to improve HF knowledge, self-care, and skills related to goal setting, communication, and shared decision-making. Interventions may include information related to prognosis, future planning, palliative care, adherence to medication, maintaining a healthy diet, daily weighing, reducing salt intake, limiting alcohol, smoking cessation, taking care of one self, and recognizing and appropriately responding to symptoms. The analytic and narrative component of the review will consider studies that tested any type of educational, psychosocial, skill building or palliative care interventions that targeted the caregiver or both care partners. Education and psychosocial interventions have been shown to improve HF self-care, symptom management, quality of life, and reduce readmissions to hospitals. Self-care interventions includes information related to adherence to medication, maintaining a healthy diet, daily weighing, reducing salt intake, recognizing and reporting symptoms to a health professional, and palliative care planning. Palliative care interventions are defined as a holistic approach to future care planning based on the care values and preferences regardless of prognosis (1). Central to palliative care is communication and shared decision making. Palliative care (1) has been shown to improve symptom management and HF outcomes, as has social support from a family caregiver (2). Comparator/Context: Due to the broad and multiple interventions being considered for this review, it is not desirable to limit the search to a specific comparator. However we will compare those exposed to the intervention against those who had not been exposed to the intervention, and dyadic interventions to caregiver only interventions when possible. Context for the review will be the home and community where care partners reside in or outpatient clinics. The geographic locations can be urban or rural. Outcome(s): This review is focused on the effects of dyadic interventions to enhance the outcomes of, Primary Outcomes: HF self-care includes complex skills and behaviors, such as monitoring and managing symptoms. Self-care is measured with a variety of valid and reliable tools. For example, self-care can be measured with the Self-care in HF index (SCHFI), HF Self-care behavior Scale (HFScBS), or European HF self-care Behavior Scale (EHFScBS). Self-care knowledge is necessary but not sufficient for self-care, can be measured with the Atlanta Heart Failure Knowledge Test (A-HFKT). HF symptom management targets neurohormonal and circulatory abnormalities, usually resulting in characteristic symptoms such as fluid retention, shortness of breath, and fatigue, especially on exertion, and pain. HF symptom management can be measured with the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) or NYHA classification of HF. Social support is defined as the provision and exchange of informational, instrumental, or emotional resources in response to the perception of another’s need, or a person’s perceptions of social resources available or actually provided by informal caregivers. Social support is dependent on the presences of an informal caregiver and the quality of their relationship. The Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) developed measures for four social support domains: companionship, emotional support, instrumental support, and informational support. Other social support measures are, Medical Outcome Study (MOS) Social Support Survey and the Social Support Questionnaire 6. The Shared Care Scale operationalized and measured social support as three relationship processes (i.e., communication, decision making, and reciprocity) used to exchange support. Mental health is commonly defined in terms depressive symptoms and anxiety. Depressive symptoms are a state in which the mood is suppressed, causing sadness, melancholy, asthenia, deteriorated understanding, decreased concentration, sense of guilt, and physical symptoms including loss of appetite, insomnia, and headache. Depressive symptoms can be measured with the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CESD), Beck Depression Inventory-2 (BDI-II), and the PROMIS depressive symptoms measures. Anxiety is defined as worry about past, current, and future events. Mood-anxiety can be measured with Spielberg State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Brief Symptom Inventory-Anxiety (BSI), and the PROMIS anxiety measures. Secondary Outcomes: Physical health is defined as functional status, symptoms, and physiologic integrity. Physical health can be measured the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) or NYHA classification of HF, or the physical health scales included in the quality of life measures listed below. Quality of life is defined as physical, social, emotional, economic, and spiritual well-being. Quality of life can be measured by Heart Failure specific questionnaires (i.e., KCCQ and Minnesota Living with HF). General population measures of quality of life will also be included like the PROMIS quality of life measures, and Short Form 36 (SF-36 or SF 12). Relationship quality is defined as positive attributes of interpersonal relationships like feeling closer, improvements in patience, learning good things about self, and learning good things about others. Relationship quality involves a balance between positive relationship aspects (i.e., feeling closer) and negative aspects (i.e., feeling angry, depressed, resentful, and strain). Relationship quality can be measured with the Dyadic Relationship Scale. Relationship quality is also measured by the level of discrepancy or incongruence between care partners’ perceptions of caregiving relationship factors. Burden is a factor associated with physical and mental health losses, but it is also associated with financial losses. Burden can be measured with the Oberst Caregiving Burden Scale. This scale measures perceived stress and burden of performing physical and emotional activities of caregiving. Readmission to hospitals can be measured by instruments that count 30, 60, and 90 day hospital readmissions, unplanned medical visits, emergency room (ED) visits, length of stay, and the reasons for use.

Primary outcome – the primary outcome will focus on studies that measures the number of people living with mental illness; the number of existing mental health policies and laws; the extent of mental health care uptake, for instance, the number of visits to out-patients or inpatients units at psychiatric hospitals or community psychiatric mental health facilities; the quality of mental health care, for instance, the extent of recovery from treatment after treatment and medications, the enablers to mental health care, for instance, the existing support services by health workers, family members and caregivers, the responsiveness of the health systems; the barriers to mental health care uptake, for instance, accessibility, availability of care, adequacy, awareness, acceptability, affordability, attitudinal. Secondary outcome – The secondary outcome will focus on the potentials of existing policies and laws, for instance, the prioritization of policies by stakeholders, the effective monitoring measures, the inclusion of different age categories including children, adolescent and aged; the effectiveness of mental health care for patients;
