Identifying research priorities for chronic disease management in primary care: results of an Irish James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic conditions are extremely common, with approximately 1 million people in Ireland currently affected by the four most common chronic conditions alone. This is expected to significantly increase in the near future due to Ireland's aging population. Identifying the priorities of patients, carers, and healthcare professionals for primary care research in chronic condition management could ensure future work is relevant and that resulting service changes and policy decisions align with the needs of those most affected.

Methods

An initial survey to collect potential research questions about the management of all chronic diseases was shared with patients, carers, and healthcare professionals from March to May 2023. Submissions were sorted and checked against exist
