To run a UK based James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership for 'Surgery for Common Shoulder Problems'.
This was a nationally funded and conducted process. It was organised from a musculoskeletal research centre and Biomedical Research Unit in Oxford.
UK shoulder patients, carers and clinicians, involved in treating patients with shoulder pain and shoulder problems that might require surgery.
These were national electronic and paper surveys capturing treatment uncertainties that are important to shoulder patients, carers and clinicians.
The outcomes relevant to this study were the survey results and rankings.
The process took 18 months to complete, with 371 participants contributing 404 in scope questions. The James Lind process then produced a final 10 research priorities and uncertainties that relate to the scope of 'Surgery for Common Shoulder Problems'.
The final top 10 UK research priorities have been produced and are now being disseminated to partner organisations and funders to guide funding of shoulder research for the next 5-10 years on topics that are important to patients, their carers and clinicians.
开展一项基于英国的詹姆斯·林德联盟优先事项设定合作项目，主题为“常见肩部问题的手术治疗”。
这是一个由国家资助并开展的项目。该项目由牛津的一个肌肉骨骼研究中心和生物医学研究单位组织实施。
参与治疗肩部疼痛及可能需要手术的肩部问题患者的英国肩部患者、护理人员和临床医生。
通过全国性的电子和纸质调查，收集对肩部患者、护理人员和临床医生而言重要的治疗不确定性因素。
与本研究相关的结果是调查结果和排名。
该项目耗时18个月完成，371名参与者提出了404个相关问题。詹姆斯·林德流程随后得出了与“常见肩部问题的手术治疗”范围相关的最终10项研究优先事项和不确定性因素。
已得出英国最终的前10项研究优先事项，目前正分发给合作组织和资助者，以指导未来5至10年对患者、其护理人员和临床医生而言重要的肩部研究课题的资金投入。
