Eyles, Caroline - University of Southampton

个人简介

Caroline has been involved in research at Primary Care and Population Sciences since 2004. Her research interests focus mainly on the use of delayed antibiotic prescriptions in Primary Care, consultation styles, patient/practitioner relationships and the self-management of symptoms in long term chronic conditions. Caroline has considerable experience in qualitative research methodology. As a methodologist she is involved in a wide range of studies within many health care settings, and is also involved in the running of the PCPS qualitative methodology group. Caroline is also a Senior Qualitative Research Adviser for the Research Design Service South Central (RDS SC) and is also the Public Involvement Lead. She completed her Master’s degree (MA) in Health Education and Health Promotion (Nottingham Trent University) in 2001, and completed her PhD in 2009. The PhD was a grounded theory of homeopathic practitioners’ experiences of the consultation (UoS, Examined by Dr Charlotte Paterson & Dr Judith Lathlean).

研究领域

Dr Eyles’ current research interest is the development and application of self-management techniques in chronic long term conditions. Within this broad area her specific focus has been centred on the application of interventions such as Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) both as a group based course but also adapted, utilising digital and online technologies. Investigating interventions for the self-management of symptoms in chronic long term disease is an important departmental strategy with national and international implications. She has recently completed a study investigating the feasibility and acceptability of MBSR in women with Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC). It was found that it was both feasible and acceptable to deliver MBSR to women with MBC and this has lead her to develop this program of research further, and explore other conditions for which MBSR may be an appropriate psychological self-management intervention. Her personal research plan was sustained by a recent successful bid to Breast Cancer Campaign (BCC), to fund explorative work with breast cancer (BC) patients that will lead to the development of an innovative MBSR intervention designed specifically for this population. The BCC bid forms part of a broader program of research and is the initial stage in a phased approach leading to a definitive trial investigating MBSR in BC.
