Research Themes

Professor Palmer's research aligns with the university's research theme of Better Health. He has conducted research and published extensively in the area of health economics and the modelling of diabetes and diabetes prevention.

In addition to his work in the area of diabetes, CI Palmer has conducted research and published extensively in other disease areas including multiple sclerosis, nephropathy and renal failure, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism prevention, osteoporosis, alcoholism, growth hormone deficiency, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular disease and oncology.

CI Palmer led the development of the CORE Diabetes Model, which has been used to inform reimbursement and policy decisions regarding diabetes interventions on an international scale. The CORE Diabetes Model is the most widely published diabetes health economics model, and has been used in over 30 reimbursement submissions for pharmaceutical agents and devices worldwide. The methodology applied by CI Palmer's team has been used as the basis for international recommendations for guidelines in diabetes modelling.

CI Palmer co-founded, has chaired and been an active member of the Steering Committee of the Mount Hood Modelling Group, committed to the increased accuracy, validity and usefulness of complex diabetes models throughout the world. He was part of the American Diabetes Association Panel for developing guidelines/recommendations on the development of models of diabetes. The data generated from the MS prevalence and cost of illness study was used by Australia's leading MS advocacy group, MS Research Australia, to lobby the federal government for implementation of the Disability Insurance Scheme (in the meantime this has been passed with bipartisan support in the Federal Parliament).

What is the economic impact of allergic respiratory disease in Tasmania? (2019)$10,000

Description: This project will provide the first economic assessment of the burden of allergic respiratory disease (allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma) in Tasmania. Together, allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma affect over 20% of the Tasmanian population, yet there has been no rigorousanalysis of the health and economic impacts. This project will cost the direct and indirect costs of these conditions across Tasmania. In doing so, we will provide a rigorous evidence base to build a case for allergic respiratory research, and directly inform government and non-government investment in interventions. Our research will be co-designed with expert input from government and non-government stakeholders (Asthma Australia) to ensure alignment with end-user needs.

Reducing the Burden of Liver Cancer for Tasmanians (2018)$350,000

Description: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of primary liver cancer and is the third leading cause of cancer deaths internationally. It occurs most commonly amongst patients with cirrhosis of the liver, which is often caused by chronic infections with the hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C viruses. The clinical outcomes for patients diagnosed with HCC are highly dependent of the stage at which it is detected. Late detection is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. If detected early, HCC is potentially curable.Screening programs have been suggested to increase the rate of early diagnosis for at-risk groups. In Australia, current guidelines recommend HCC screening for all patients with cirrhosis, regardless of liver disease severity or aetiology. Screening consists of 6-monthly liver ultrasound and alpha-fetoprotein tests. Uptake of screening for HCC is very low in Australia, evidenced by the 5-year survival rate of just 17%. The aims of this project are to a) evaluate current uptake and adherence of HCC screening across Tasmania, b) develop strategies aimed at supporting at-risk patients to participate in regular HCC screening, c) evaluate the cost-effectiveness of screening interventions, and d) assess the effectiveness of new treatments for hepatitis C in reducing the rate of HCC in Tasmania.

Health by Stealth: Increasing Physical Activity through Active Travel in Tasmania (2018 - 2020)$282,362

Description: We are facing a global inactivity crisis. Participation in recommended amounts of physical activity (PA) has remained stagnant since the 1980s,indicating limited population-level impact of strategies to promote PA. A shift in focus from leisure-time to transport-related PA holds promiseas an attractive but under-exploited opportunity to support individuals to incorporate more activity into daily life. Healthy transport options walking, cycling and public transport are critical social determinants of health, by reducing traffic accidents, increasing social contact,reducing air pollution, and increasing exercise. Improving our understanding of travel behaviours and identifying strategies to increase use ofhealthy transport options have been identified by our three highly engaged Tasmanian Partner Organisations as important priorities. This projectseeks to generate evidence with service providers, state government and local government authorities to support decision-making and resourceallocation in relation to increasing active and public transport use. Working closely with our Partners, we will analyse data from existing datasources to better understand Tasmanians travel behaviours and the factors that influence these, by evaluating the effectiveness of two realworldfiscal strategies aiming to increase active and public transport use, and by developing and implementing a knowledge transfer strategy toensure findings are effectively communicated. This project will generate some of the first evidence internationally about the effectiveness offiscal strategies to increase active and public transport use, and will provide crucial information to directly impact the work of service providers,decision makers, policy-makers and practitioners. By identifying effective strategies to increase PA through active transport, the implications of this project have the potential to make major direct health, social, environmental and economic impacts globally.

Ambulatory oxygen for interstitial lung disease (2018 - 2022)$1,503,717

Description: Exertional desaturation (low blood oxygen during exercise) is a hallmark of fILD, occurring in over 50% of patients. It is sometimes treated withambulatory oxygen therapy (AOT), which involves breathing supplemental oxygen during physical activity. However the absence of clinicaltrials has given rise to marked variations in policy and practice globally. Even where AOT is available, treatment adherence using the traditionaldelivery method of cylinder gas is extremely poor, as patient burden frequently outweighs any benefit. We have shown that (1) oxygen therapyimproves exercise capacity and markers of skeletal muscle metabolism, suggesting that AOT may impact on physical function, (2) AOT can bedelivered effectively in fILD using a portable oxygen concentrator (POC), which is lighter and more manoeuverable than a cylinder; and (3)POCs are acceptable to patients. We have recently modified a POC to deliver air, providing the effective sham treatment needed for a robustclinical trial.This multi-site randomised controlled trial will determine the clinical benefits and societal costs of AOT for people with fILD and exertionaldesaturation. Our hypotheses are that (1) AOT delivered using a POC will deliver clinically significant improvements in physical activity,symptoms and HRQoL; and (2) AOT delivered using a POC will be cost-effective from a societal perspective. We will conduct a randomisedcontrolled trial with blinding of participants, assessors and clinicians, and an embedded economic evaluation. 260 participants with fILD andexertional desaturation will be randomly assigned to use either AOT or air delivered using a POC for 6 months. If this trial demonstrates clinicaland economic benefits of AOT then the findings can be rapidly translated into practice, with global impact on ILD outcomes and costs.

Sustained Effective Oral Care to Significantly Reduce Aspiration Pneumonia experienced by Adults with Dementia in Residential Care (2016 - 2017)$99,572

Description: Oral care is critical to keeping the mouth clean and the body and brain as healthy as possible. This is especially the case for adults with dementia who rely on others for care. With poor oral health, harmful bacteria throughout the mouth cause tooth decay, gum inflammation, gum disease, and tooth loss. Frequently adults with dementia take multiple medications and the side-effects of these medications include reducing saliva and drying the mouth which in turn increase the harmful oral bacteria. When these harmful bacteria are breathed (or aspirated) into the lungs, the lungs become infected and aspiration pneumonia results. Adults with dementia, particularly those who live in residential communities, are vulnerable to aspiration pneumonia as they are often frail, not well nourished, have complicating medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, and swallowing problems, as well as needing help from others for their care. We know, from published studies, that vulnerable adults who have their own teeth need to brush their teeth for 2 minutes after each meal. Adults who wear dentures need to clean their dentures each day and take them out when they are planning to sleep. Whether they have their own teeth or wear dentures, all adults with dementia also need to rinse their mouth after each meal. Unfortunately, oral care for adults with dementia in residential communities remains inconsistent and fragmentary. Our studies have documented the barriers, real and perceived, that prevent systematic oral care and we have developed a protocol to overcome these barriers. This protocol has five components: (1) establishment of an innovative Community of Practice (CoP) including health care professionals in the community-at-large, policy-makers, and consumers, together with visionary residential care leaders and nurse-carer champion partners to support staff and drive practice change; (2) education of nurse-carer champions by CoP members; (3) ongoing education and training of all point-of-care staff by nurse-carer champions as they work with RACF-based dental/oral health therapy students, and are supported by CoP members and online resources; (4) implementation of daily evidence-based oral care by staff; and (5) regular audits of daily oral care by nurse-carer champions and the students to ensure its sustained implementation.To measure the effectiveness of our protocol, we will follow 60 residents in each of two residential care communities in Tasmania. We will document the number of cases of aspiration pneumonia these residents experience before and after a 3-month period of daily evidence-based oral care (component 4 of the protocol). We also will document the number of times these residents have been transferred to hospital or admitted to hospital before and after the 3-month period of daily oral care. To document improvements in the residents oral, nutritional and general health and their quality-of-life (QOL), we will use the following measures that are appropriate for adults with dementia: (i) Oral Health Assessment Tool (OHAT), (ii) Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA), (iii) 3-day food record, (iv) Yale Swallow Protocol that identifies any signs of swallowing difficulty, (v) Sit-to-Stand Manoeuvre that identifies any difficulties with strength and movement, and (vi) the EuroQol-5 dimension tool that documents residents perceptions of their ability to move, care for themselves, and participate in daily activities along with any pain, discomfort or anxiety they are experiencing. We will administer these measures to the residents before and after the 3-month period of evidence-based daily oral care. We will analyse the data and write reports about the findings. We will publish these reports in academic journals and magazines that are widely-read by the public. We will network with social media outlets (radio, television, and Facebook sites) and policy-makers to share our findings as widely as possible. We antic

Comparison of learning focused cardiac ultrasound between self-directed/simulator and instructor/live model teaching (2016)$32,000

Description: Our proposed project aims to test whether our new self-directed learning simulator course is as effective as the current standard teaching model that uses lots of instructors and human volunteer models. The advantages of the simulator course include reduced reliance on instructors, increased availability of the course (ability to train a lot more doctors than the current standard course) to and the ability to also teach learning of diagnosis of heart disease (not possible with the current human model). A health economic analysis will also be performed to determine if the new simulator course is as cost-effective (economical) as versus the traditional course. If the new course is as effective and economical as the current course then the simulator course may become the new method for teaching bedside ultrasound as it has important advantages over the traditional method such as increased accessibility and capacity to train doctors, and the ability to teach how to diagnose heart conditions. This would result in significant health benefits to a very large number of patients worldwide.

Guidance of Heart Failure Management Programs by Risk Assessment (2013 - 2018)$1,422,739

Description: The aims of this project are to reduce Heart Failure (HF) admissions and costs in Tasmania by: i) using data linkage to identify locations where community service delivery should be targeted, and to evaluate current performance in HF readmission across the State; ii) developing a risk algorithm for HF readmission, including psychosocial determinants; iii) using i) and ii) devising a novel means of providing a disease management program (DMP), titrated to risk assessment, with physiologic assessment used to guide the management of the highest risk patients; iv) developing a clinical trial to define the merits of this approach; v) evaluating the cost-effectiveness of this intervention; vi) presentation of educational activities with community-based providers. A successful intervention is likely to be sustainable. As HF readmissions in Tasmania cost ~4550 bed days/y, the investment in this grant (~$1/2m/y) could be reproduced by a 50% reduction of readmissions.
