“…These designs, although traditionally considered lower rigor, often reside closest to clinician's practice realities by: (1) embellishing variance richness; (2) offering consideration to rare conditions or unique clinical combinations; and (3) supporting practice patterns that provide immediate solutions for exploratory processes. The 'rim' (biopsychosocial constructs) that undergirds patient management progress includes emotional (anxiety, frustration, anger), 10 cognitive (illogic, distrust, catastrophizing), 11 psychological (depression, bipolar tendencies, personality disorders, psychosis), 12 contextual (goals, settings, background, circumstances), 13 sociocultural (race, culture, gender, ethnicity), 14 economic (employment/work status, socioeconomic group), 15 and/or communication (observing, listening, perceiving, expressing, responding, reporting) 16 influences. Patient care that considers these influences may require effort outside of contemporary evidence, where the patient's perception of care may be as important as what is actually delivered.…”
