Home and community-based services: a systematic review and evidence map.
This systematic review provides an evidence map of the existing literature on home and community-based services (HCBS) for adults aged 60 years or older, identifying evidence gaps for policy and research. HCBS populations were categorized as those with functional disability, cognitive impairment, high-risk/frail conditions, and disease-specific conditions (Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and post-stroke). Interventions targeted optimization of person-centered planning, nonpharmacological approaches for dementia care, physical rehabilitation, self-directed home care, geriatric resources for practical support at home, and interdisciplinary care coordination for high-risk conditions. Key challenges in the HCBS literature included limited number of randomized trials, inadequate descriptions of interventions to determine person-centeredness, limited information on facilitators and barriers, and limited information on workforce challenges in recruiting, retaining, and training personnel delivering HCBS.

Association of home noninvasive positive pressure ventilation with clinical outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
The association of home noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) with outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and hypercapnia is uncertain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of home NIPPV via bilevel positive airway pressure (BPAP) devices and noninvasive home mechanical ventilator (HMV) devices with clinical outcomes and adverse events in patients with COPD and hypercapnia.

Reducing readmissions among heart failure patients discharged to home health care: effectiveness of early and intensive nursing services and early physician follow-up.
This study compared the effectiveness of two "treatments"-early, intensive home health nursing and physician follow-up within a week-versus less intense and later postacute care in reducing readmissions among heart failure patients discharged to home health care. Neither treatment by itself had a statistically significant effect on hospital readmission. In combination, however, they reduced the probability of readmission by roughly 8 percentage points.

Assessment of home-time after acute ischemic stroke in Medicare beneficiaries.
The researchers evaluated home-time as a patient-centered outcome in Medicare beneficiaries with ischemic stroke in comparison with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 90 days and at 1 year post event. They concluded that in a population of older patients with ischemic stroke, home-time was readily available from administrative data and associated with mRS at 90 days and 1 year.
