Purpose
To assess health literacy (HL) of patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and evaluate its impact on patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) as well as investigating outcome differences in inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation.
Methods
In this study, HL and PROMs of older patients were assessed preoperatively (T0) and after 3 (T1),...
Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies in women worldwide and affects all dimensions of health. The aim of this meta-aggregative review is to describe the experience of diagnosis and the subsequent period of therapy of women with breast cancer.

Sample
In two western Austrian provinces, a total of 2080 persons were observed in front of 24 grocery stores.

Background
Limited health literacy is associated with negative clinical outcomes. Although research on health literacy has increased in recent years, there is still a lack of evidence for orthopaedic patients undergoing joint replacement and in the rehabilitation sector.
Objectives
The aims of this study were to assess health literacy of patients...
Assessing nursing-related competences becomes increasingly relevant. Therefore, psychometrically tested and contentual appropriate instruments are needed. The Nurse Professional Competence (NPC) Scale seems convenient to assess nurses' competences in German-speaking countries. This article describes the translation and cultural adaption of the NPC...
Background
Health literacy (HL) is a key aspect in empowering patient education as part of orthopaedic rehabilitation after total knee or hip arthroplasty (TKA/THA).
Objectives
This scoping review aims to demonstrate the prevalence of patient-related outcome measures in studies on the effectiveness of orthopaedic rehabilitation of older people aft...
The assessment of nursing-related competences by suitable instruments has become more relevant. Internationally, applicable instruments have been developed.

The project NuComE - RNA (Nursing Competence Estimation of Registered Nurses in Austria) aims at psychometric testing (construct validity and internal consistency) of the Austrian version of the Nurse Professional Competence (NPC) Scale on the one hand, and the assessment of nursing competencies in the upper level of health and nursing care in Austria on the other hand. The results of the cross-sectional study should contribute to the presentation of profession-specific competences and their characteristics in relation to different qualifications and professional experience in order to show possibilities for the formal recognition of potentially developed competences in the sense of "Recognition of Prior Learning".
Ziel dieses Projektes ist die Ermöglichung einer aktiven Teilhabe der Stakeholder am Prozess der Konstruktion eines Instrumentens zur Einschätzung der Zufriedenheit von Altenheimbewohner/inne/n, sodass Bewohner/innenzufriedenheit multiperspektivisch erfasst und folglich zielgruppenadäquat evaluiert werden kann.
To identify empirically collected outcome parameters after orthopaedic rehabilitation which are related to Health Literacy.
