A B S T R A C TObjective: To investigate feasibility and acceptability of self-testing for proteinuria during pregnancy. Study design: Mixed methods approach which included: an accuracy study where pregnant women (n = 100) and healthcare professionals (n = 96) tested seven synthetic protein samples and completed a questionnaire, a feasibility study where pregnant women who were self-monitoring their blood pressure were asked to self-test for proteinuria (n = 30), and an online questionnaire about women's experiences of self-testing (n = 200). Main outcome measures: Sensitivity and specificity of testing and questionnaire results. Results: There were no significant differences in the accuracy of synthetic sample testing by pregnant women (sensitivity 0.81 (95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.78-0.85), specificity 0.93 (95% CI 0.91-0.95)) and healthcare professionals: (sensitivity 0.83 (95% CI 0.79-0.86), specificity 0.92 (95% CI 0.90-0.94)). Automated readers had significantly better sensitivity (0.94 (0.91-0.97) (p ≤ .001 in each case), but worse specificity 0.78 (0.69-0.85). Similar results were gained using self-tested urine samples compared to staff-testing using a reference standard of laboratory urine protein-creatinine ratio (uPCR). Women who completed the online survey with experience of self-testing (n = 39, 20%) generally found it easy, and with support from healthcare professionals felt it improved involvement in their care and reduced anxiety. Conclusions: Self-testing for proteinuria by pregnant women had similar accuracy to healthcare professional testing and was acceptable to both groups. Self-testing of urine combined with self-monitoring of blood pressure could provide a useful adjunct to clinic-based surveillance for the detection of pre-eclampsia. Such novel strategies warrant further research.

“…The One Sheet of Paper method (OSOP) was used to summarize the data captured under particular themes in order to help identify patterns or common language used [51]. For example, under the broad theme of 'psychological problems', it was identified that psychological difficulties commonly manifested later on.…”

“…A 'grounded theory'-based analytical approach was used to prioritise interviewees' perspectives and experiences. Stage one was 'immersion' in the data to identify themes (Pope and Mays, 2000;Ziebland and McPherson, 2006) through field notes, transcribing and editing interviews, reading and re-reading interviews, and producing interviewee vignettes. Emergent themes were prioritised, although themes reflecting the research aims, such as reasons for non-participation, were additionally sought (Seale and Kelly, 1998).…”

Background: Secondary prevention and self-management of coronary heart disease (CHD) are of major importance to people who survive myocardial infarction (MI). This can be facilitated by cardiac rehabilitation (CR; the formal health service programme) and informal CHD self-help groups. Non-participation is an important issue, yet it is poorly understood. Rehabilitation difficulties and prevention challenges have been identified among people following MI, but the particular experience and perspective of CR and CHD group non-participants are largely unknown. Aim: The study aimed to understand non-participation in CR and CHD self-help groups from the perspectives of the non-participants and to provide insight into their experience and that of their 'significant others' in rehabilitating in the absence of these resources. Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted with 27 people who had not participated in either hospital-based CR or a CHD group, 6-14 months post-MI, and 17 'significant others' in Lothian, Scotland. Findings: Factors influencing non-participation fell into three broad themes 'No need/no point', 'Not worth it', and 'Not possible'. In the latter two categories, non-participation in these resources was often considered a 'missed opportunity' and needs had remained unmet. Shifts between categories could occur over time. Non-participation was linked to rehabilitation difficulties for some people and family members. Recommendations to enhance post-MI support are made.
