Adaptations des recommandations pour la pratique clinique: l'exemple du Programme cantonal Diabète de Vaud [Adaptation of clinical practice guidelines--the example of cantonal Diabetes Program].

With the growing number of scientific publications, practitioners can use scientific knowledge synthesis, including Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG). The practical use of a CPG implies considering the context, that is the local healthcare system and the patient. Thus, the CPG can never replace the expertise of the practitioner! Diabetes is a wide public health issue and the canton of Vaud established the cantonal Diabetes Program (cDP), to optimize the care of diabetic patients. The cDP has many projects including the adaptation of reliable CPG to local needs. We present the pros and cons of the CPG in the cDP and the methods to adapt it to the regional healthcare context, and also at an individual level.

Promoting secure attachment: evaluation of the effectiveness of an early intervention pilot programme with mother-infant dyads in Santiago, Chile.

BackgroundResearch indicates that the early attachment patterns of babies could influence their socio-emotional development and prevent the emergence of problematic behaviours in the child later in life. Many studies in the field of early attachment interventions have promoted a secure attachment bond between mother and infant. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an early pilot intervention programme designed to promote a secure attachment bond in mother-infant dyads belonging to a population seeking regular treatment at urban health centres in Santiago, Chile.MethodsPrimipara mothers were randomly assigned to two intervention conditions: a secure attachment promotion programme (experimental group = 43) or an educational talk (control group = 29). The Strange Situation Assessment was used to collect data on the attachment patterns of babies.ResultsThe results show that after the intervention, there were more babies with secure attachment in the experimental group than in the control group.ConclusionsThese findings represent a preliminary step towards evaluating interventions aimed at promoting secure attachment in Chilean mother-child dyads. While the effect of the intervention is not significant, the effect size obtained is respectable and consistent with other meta-analytic findings.
