Objectives Informal caregivers are known to have poorer mental health. Risk factors for caregiver burden include low education, female gender, cohabitation with the care recipient and lack of resources. General practitioners (GPs) have an important role in supporting caregivers. Drawing on data from two surveys, associations between caregivers’ socioeconomic status (SES), psychophysical health and GP contacts are analysed.Design Cross-sectional study. The study draws on data from two surveys (German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Adults, DEGS1 and General Practice Care-1, GPCare-1).Setting Germany.Participants DEGS1: German general population (18+ years) n=7987. GPCare-1: general practice patients (18+ years) n=813.Primary outcome Psychophysical health, GP contacts and communication.Methods Using representative DEGS1 data, the prevalence of informal caregivers, caregivers’ burden, chronic stress, various health conditions and frequency of GP contacts were evaluated stratified by SES. Data from the GPCare-1 study addressed caregivers’ experiences and communication preferences with GPs.Results In the DEGS1, the prevalence of caregivers was 6.5%. Compared with non-caregivers, caregivers scored significantly higher for chronic stress (15.45 vs 11.90), self-reported poor health (37.6% vs 23.7%) and GP visits last year (3.95 vs 3.11), while lifestyle and chronic diseases were similar. Compared with caregivers with medium/high SES, those with low SES had a significantly lower prevalence of high/medium caregiver burden (47.9% vs 67.7%) but poorer self-reported health (56.9% vs 33.0%), while other characteristics did not differ. In the GPCare-1 study, the prevalence of caregivers was 12.6%. The majority of them felt that their GP takes their problems seriously (63.6%) without difference by SES.Conclusion Caregivers with low SES constitute an especially high-risk group for psychological strain, requiring special GP attention to support their needs.

General Medicine - Abstract
ObjectivesAim of the study is to present an overview of collaboration structures and processes between general practitioners and social workers, the target groups addressed as well the quality of available scientific literature.DesignA scoping review following the guidelines of the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews).Included sources and articlesAccording to a pre-published protocol, three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, DZI SoLit) were searched using the participant-concept-context framework. The searches were performed on 21 January 2021 and on 10 August 2021. Literature written in English and German since the year 2000 was included. Two independent researchers screened all abstracts for collaboration between general practitioners and social workers. Articles selected were analysed regarding structures, processes, outcomes, effectiveness and patient target groups.ResultsA total of 72 articles from 17 countries were identified. Collaborative structures and their routine differ markedly between healthcare systems: 36 publications present collaboration structures and 33 articles allow an insight into the processual routines. For all quantitative studies, a level of evidence was assigned. Various measurements are used to determine the effectiveness of collaborations, for example, hospital admissions and professionals’ job satisfaction. Case management as person-centred care for defined patient groups is a central aspect of all identified collaborations between general practitioners and social workers.ConclusionThis scoping review showed evidence for benefits on behalf of patients, professionals and healthcare systems by collaborations between general practitioners and social workers, yet more rigorous research is needed to better understand the impact of these collaborations.Trial registration numberwww.osf.io/w673q.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Der Einsatz von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien in der ambulanten Pflege erfolgt vor dem Hintergrund des demografischen Wandels mit dem Ziel, auch in Zukunft die Qualität der pflegerischen Versorgung sicherzustellen. Die Akzeptanz der telematischen Anwendungen ist dabei entscheidend für die erfolgreiche Implementation. Ziel: Das Ziel der Untersuchung war eine Erfassung der subjektiven Haltungen und Einstellungen sowie der Nutzungsintention der Pflegekräfte hinsichtlich telematischer Anwendungen in der ambulanten Pflege. Methoden: Auf der theoretischen Grundlage der „Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology“ (UTAUT) wurde eine Onlineumfrage erstellt, anhand derer deutschlandweit ambulante Alten- und Krankenpflegekräfte sowie Auszubildende in Pflegeschulen befragt wurden. Insgesamt konnten 371 Befragte in die Analyse eingeschlossen werden. Ergebnisse: Der Informationsstand zur Telematik und die eigenen technischen Kompetenzen werden als gering eingeschätzt. Es wird eine verbesserte Transparenz des Pflegeprozesses erhofft; genauso wie eine Erleichterung des Austausches sektorintern und -übergreifend. Dagegen wird befürchtet, dass die telematischen Anwendungen mit erhöhten Kosten, Schulungsaufwand und Technikabhängigkeit einhergehen. Schlussfolgerungen: Die Ergebnisse zeigen die Relevanz der Einstellungen und Bedürfnisse von Nutzerinnen und Nutzern für eine erfolgreiche Implementierung. Aus-, Fort- und Weiterbildungen sollten in Zukunft verstärkt die technologische Kompetenz der Pflegekräfte fördern.

Telematics in ambulatory care: Exploring the nurses' perspective Abstract.In the context of demographic change, the use of information and communications technology in home care has the aim of ensuring the quality of nursing care in the future. The acceptance of telematic applications by all users is crucial in this regard.The aim of this study was to assess the subjective attitudes and intentions of nursing staff on telematic applications in home care.Based on the "Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology" (UTAUT), an online survey was conducted in which nursing staff as well as nursing students throughout Germany were surveyed. 371 questionnaires have been included in the analysis.Nursing students as well as nurses stated inadequate information and insufficient technical competence. Referring to performance expectations, both groups hope for improving care process transparency and communication inside and outside sectors. For effort expectancy, higher costs, training efforts and technology dependency were named.The results show the relevance of the attitudes and demands of users for a successful implementation. In the future, training and further education should increasingly promote the technological competence of nursing staff.Zusammenfassung.
