Involving people improves research. In scoping reviews, patient involvement and engagement can help to:

🔍 Refine search terms
📋 Improve data extraction templates
🎯 Focus research on what matters most to patients

insights from Katie Fishpool at the @chcr-uwe.bsky.social #Conference2025 Well done!

What a thoughtful gift from the #EULARHPR community!

This beautiful fountain pen 🖊️ is a nudge to revive my cursive handwriting, long neglected by years of biros, keyboards, and touchscreens.

Grateful to be part of such a generous and inspiring rheumatology community.

Thank you!

8️⃣Digitalising healthcare isn’t just about innovation — we must also address the risks

🧩Fragmentation
⚙️Taskification
🩺➡️📲Deprofessionalisation
🔀Complexification
📡 Distanciation
🌍Disembedding
🎭Responsibilisation
🤖Facsimilisation

7️⃣Facsimilisation = creating a 'digital facsimile' of the patient on the electronic record and 'treating' that facsimile

Digital interactions may mimic in-person care, but lacks the depth, nuance, and personal connection needed for effective care

Facsimilisation = the illusion of care
February 4, 2025 at 5:35 PM
5️⃣Distanciation shifts healthcare away from in-person settings, reducing face-to-face interactions

Disembedding detaches care from traditional environments, making access more reliant on technology

While digital tools offer convenience, they may make healthcare less personal or widening access gaps
February 4, 2025 at 5:35 PM
4️⃣Complexification is the increasing intricacy of digital systems, processes and technologies, making them harder to navigate

Individuals with lower digital #literacy, older adults, and underserved communities struggle the most - can't access the care they need

🌀Complexification = barrier to access
February 4, 2025 at 5:35 PM
3️⃣Taskification breaks complex clinical work into smaller tasks, often shifting responsibility to algorithms, patients, or less-qualified workers.

De-professionalisation diminishes the role of trained professionals, outsourcing critical expertise and decision-making to non-experts or automation 🩺➡️📲
February 4, 2025 at 5:35 PM
2️⃣ Digital health inequalities are structural—shaped by factors embedded in healthcare digitalisation itself.

🧩Fragmentation is a major culprit, causing disjointed care, uneven access, and inconsistent quality —ultimately deepening existing inequalities.

1️⃣ Digital health tools promise more efficient and accessible healthcare—but do they benefit everyone equally?

Last night, Prof @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social explored how digitalisation can actually deepen health inequalities by creating new barriers.

Here are my key takeaways from the lecture.🧵 1/8
