Adapting co-creation research processes and/or public health interventions improves the fit between the intervention and population of interest, potentially resulting in more relevant and effective interventions. Mode 2 research approaches (e.g., co-creation, co-production, co-design, community-based participatory research, and participatory action research) can ensure that adaptations fit the socio-cultural and economic contexts. However, an overview of existing practices and how to co-adapt is lacking. This study aimed to provide an overview of the use of co-adaptation in co-creation processes and/or public health interventions.
Methods
We conducted a rapid review search on the Health CASCADE co-creation database. Relevant peer-reviewed studies reporting on co-adaptation of public health interventions were identified. A call for case studies via social media and co-authors’ snowballing was issued to perform interviews with co-creation researchers gaining insights into how co-adaptation was applied from unpublished studies and practice. Interviews were analysed using template analysis.
Results
Fourteen studies addressed various public health issues by co-adapting co-creation processes, intervention activities, communication platforms, monitoring strategies, training components, and materials’ language and tone. Most studies lacked detailed reporting on the co-adaptation process, though some provided information on group composition and number, duration, and methods applied. Two out of 14 studies used a framework (i.e., Intervention Mapping Adapt), seven described their adaptation procedure without naming a specific framework, and five did not report any procedures or frameworks. Five of seven case studies used adaptation frameworks (e.g., ADAPT guidance). Interviews provided insights into the co-adaptation process emphasising the importance of contextual fit, integrating prior knowledge, and logging adaptations.
Conclusions
This study is the first introducing the concept of and exploring co-adaptation of co-creation processes and/or public health interventions. It provides details regarding adaptations made, whether and which frameworks were used, and procedures applied to adapt. The findings highlight the need for tailored frameworks for co-adaptation and better reporting of co-adaptation processes.},

abstract = {Background
Implementing public health interventions in schools requires active involvement of multiple stakeholders and adaptation of interventions to fit local contexts, to account for successful design, implementation, and consequently effectiveness of these interventions. Active collaboration, preferably in a co-creation process, with school staff is needed to enhance the implementation of school-based public health interventions. However, involving them in research through a co-creation process is challenging due to competing demands on their time. Hence, there is a need for insights into the factors facilitating or impeding co-creation processes involving school staff.
Methods
To gain in-depth knowledge of school staff’s experiences a scoping review and thematic synthesis have been conducted. Peer reviewed articles written in English and published between January 2012 and November 2023 were retrieved from ERIC, Education Database, Medline (PubMed interface), Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and Health CASCADE Co-creation Database. Considering the high amount of search results the title and abstract screening was performed using ASReview. A thematic synthesis was conducted on the included articles.
Results
Ten scientific peer reviewed articles were included and thematically synthesised. Six descriptive themes described factors influencing the co-creation process, including competing work roles and responsibilities of school staff, multistakeholder collaboration, benefits of participation in the co-creation process, power imbalances between different stakeholders, and school staff’s lived experiences. Additionally, four analytical themes emerged indicating that demands of the co-creation process outweigh its benefits. To tackle excessive demands school staff preferred a guided process in which high-level participation was less important. School staff joined the co-creation process to serve students and emphasised the importance of being heard and taken seriously.
Conclusions
School staff indicated that excessive demands outweigh the benefits experienced during the co-creation process. Therefore, school staff preferred less time-intensive processes. Improving students outcomes was school staff’s motivation to be involved, which asks for processes with student-related goals and observable student benefits. Moreover, school staff needs to be acknowledged as an expert and valued for their involvement. These results should be considered to make co-creation processes involving school staff more feasible and satisfactory.},

abstract = {Objective
Co-creation is recognised as a promising approach for addressing complex health issues by collaborating with end-users to develop tailored solutions that meet their needs. Planning a co-creation initiative-resulting in a co-creation protocol-requires balancing between providing clear project details and the need for flexibility in co-creation. However, existing structured guidance necessary for effective co-creation planning in the literature does not exist. This study aimed to develop a practical co-creation planning roadmap for public health researchers and practitioners.
Study design:
Iterative development of an evidence-based co-creation planning roadmap based on case study reflections and expert input, and supported by existing co-creation literature.
Methods:
The roadmap was developed based on the experience of applying the PRODUCES framework and principles of the planning phase by Leask and colleagues (2019) for planning a co-creation case study on reducing sedentary behaviour in Scottish companies. The roadmap underwent several rounds of iteration with the research team, incorporated feedback from researchers experienced with co-creation, and was further supported by the established evidence base of co-creation literature.
Results:
The resulting roadmap has a seven-step approach, divided into four sections, involving: whether and why co-creation is an appropriate approach, framing the co-creation initiative (Section 1: Identify), defining stakeholders and co-creator sampling, describing resources and outcomes (Section 2: Define), structuring co-creation sessions, selecting methods for the co-creation sessions (Section 3: Structure) and planning for evaluation (Section 4: Plan Evaluation).
Conclusion:
The roadmap offers a structured and accessible process to guide the planning of co-creation initiatives. We suggest that the roadmap be applied to different contexts to further refine and validate its utility, with the ultimate goal of enhancing the systematic planning of co-creation in public health.},

This scoping review aimed to summarise available evidence relating to co-creation experiences among adults in diverse contexts. Understanding how participation in co-creation processes shapes experiences is important as it can offer insights into the improved development and effective use of such processes. Co-creation has increasingly gained attention due to its many claimed advantages and benefits to participants. There is however a lack of aggregated literature on stakeholders’ experience of the co-creation process.

Scoping review.
Methods
Arksey and O'Malley's methodological framework for conducting scoping reviews was used. A systematic search was conducted in Scopus and the Health CASCADE Co-creation Database (an open access curated database of 13,501 articles, screened for inclusion based on criteria relating to co-creation participatory research). Themes were generated through thematic analysis.
Results
We included 80 publications. Positive co-creation experiences were linked to establishing interpersonal relationships and positive group dynamics, enhanced well-being, personal development, satisfaction and fulfilment. Negative experiences were associated with initial uncertainties, project-related challenges, interpersonal issues, dissatisfaction, and disengagement.

abstract = {Background
There is a growing investment in the use of co-creation, reflected by an increase in co-created products, services, and interventions. At the same time, a growing recognition of the significance of co-creators’ experience can be detected but there is a gap in the aggregation of the literature with regard to experience. Therefore, the purpose of this scoping review is to uncover the breadth of existing empirical research on co-creation experience, how it has been defined and assessed, and its key emotional and psychological characteristics in the context of co-created products, services, or interventions among adults.
Methods
The development of the search strategy was guided by the research question, Arksey, and O’Malley’s scoping review methodology guidelines, and through collaboration with members of the Health CASCADE consortium. The results of the search and the study inclusion process will be reported in full and presented both narratively and by use of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses extension for scoping review (PRISMA-ScR) flow diagram. Comprehensive searches of relevant electronic databases (e.g. Scopus) will be conducted to identify relevant papers. Snowball searches to identify additional papers through included full-text papers will be done using the artificial intelligence tool, namely, Connected Papers. All review steps will involve at least two reviewers. Studies in English, Dutch, Chinese, Spanish, and French, published from the year 1970 onwards, will be considered. Microsoft Excel software will be used to record and chart extracted data.
Discussion
The resulting scoping review could provide useful insights into adult co-creators’ experience of participating in the co-creation process. An increased understanding of the role of emotional and psychological experiences of participating in co-creation processes may help to inform the co-creation process and lead to potential benefits for the co-creators and co-created outcome.},

abstract = {Background
There has been an increase in the use of co-creation for public health because of its claimed potential to increase an intervention’s impact, spark change and co-create knowledge. Still, little is reported on its use in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs). This study offers a comprehensive overview of co-creation used in public-health-related interventions, including the interventions’ characteristics, and reported implementation barriers and facilitators.
Methods
We conducted a systematic review within the Scopus and PubMed databases, a Google Scholar search, and a manual search in two grey literature databases related to participatory research. We further conducted eight interviews with first authors, randomly selected from included studies, to validate and enrich the systematic review findings.
Results
Through our review, we identified a total of twenty-two studies conducted in twenty-four LMIC countries. Majority of the interventions were designed directly within the LMIC setting. Aside from one, all studies were published between 2019 and 2023. Most studies adopted a co-creation approach, while some reported on the use of co-production, co-design, and co-development, combined either with community-based participatory research, participatory action research or citizen science. Among the most reported implementation barriers, we found the challenge of understanding and accounting for systemic conditions, such as the individual’s socioeconomic status and concerns related to funding constraints and length of the process. Several studies described the importance of creating a safe space, relying on local resources, and involving existing stakeholders in the process from the development stage throughout, including future and potential implementors. High relevance was also given to the performance of a contextual and/or needs assessment and careful tailoring of strategies and methods.
Conclusion
This study provides a systematic overview of previously conducted studies and of reported implementation barriers and facilitators. It identifies implementation barriers such as the setting’s systemic conditions, the socioeconomic status and funding constrains along with facilitators such as the involvement of local stakeholders and future implementors throughout, the tailoring of the process to the population of interest and participants and contextual assessment. By incorporating review and interview findings, the study aims to provide practical insights and recommendations for guiding future research and policy.},

abstract = {Background
Incorporating co-creation processes may improve the quality of outcome interventions. However, there is a lack of synthesis of co-creation practices in the development of Non-Pharmacological Interventions (NPIs) for people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), that could inform future co-creation practice and research for rigorously improving the quality of care.
Objective
This scoping review aimed to examine the co-creation practice used when developing NPIs for people with COPD.
Methods
This review followed Arksey and O'Malley scoping review framework and was reported according to the PRISMA-ScR framework. The search included PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Web of Science Core Collection. Studies reporting on the process and/or analysis of applying co-creation practice in developing NPIs for people with COPD were included.
Results
13 articles complied with the inclusion criteria. Limited creative methods were reported in the studies. Facilitators described in the co-creation practices included administrative preparations, diversity of stakeholders, cultural considerations, employment of creative methods, creation of an appreciative environment, and digital assistance. Challenges around the physical limitations of patients, the absence of key stakeholder opinions, a prolonged process, recruitment, and digital illiteracy of co-creators were listed. Most of the studies did not report including implementation considerations as a discussion point in their co-creation workshops.
Conclusion
Evidence-based co-creation in COPD care is critical for guiding future practice and improving the quality of care delivered by NPIs. This review provides evidence for improving systematic and reproducible co-creation. Future research should focus on systematically planning, conducting, evaluating, and reporting co-creation practices in COPD care.},

abstract = {Background
Patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms need support, and health care professionals need to be able to provide evidence-based patient care. Digital interventions can meet these requirements, especially if personal contact is limited.
Objective
We reviewed evidence-based digital interventions that are currently available to help manage physical and mental health in patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms.
Methods
A scoping review was carried out summarizing novel digital health interventions for treating post-COVID/long-COVID patients. Using the PICO (population, intervention, comparison, outcome) scheme, original studies were summarized, in which patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms used digital interventions to help aid recovery.
Results
From all scanned articles, 8 original studies matched the inclusion criteria. Of the 8 studies, 3 were "pretest" studies, 3 described the implementation of a telerehabilitation program, 1 was a post-COVID/long-COVID program, and 1 described the results of qualitative interviews with patients who used an online peer-support group. Following the PICO scheme, we summarized previous studies. Studies varied in terms of participants (P), ranging from adults in different countries, such as former hospitalized patients with COVID-19, to individuals in disadvantaged communities in the United Kingdom, as well as health care workers. In addition, the studies included patients who had previously been infected with COVID-19 and who had ongoing symptoms. Some studies focused on individuals with specific symptoms, including those with either post-COVID-19 or long-term symptoms, while other studies included patients based on participation in online peer-support groups. The interventions (I) also varied. Most interventions used a combination of psychological and physical exercises, but they varied in duration, frequency, and social dimensions. The reviewed studies investigated the physical and mental health conditions of patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms. Most studies had no control (C) group, and most studies reported outcomes (O) or improvements in physiological health perception, some physical conditions, fatigue, and some psychological aspects such as depression. However, some studies found no improvements in bowel or bladder problems, concentration, short-term memory, unpleasant dreams, physical ailments, perceived bodily pain, emotional ailments, and perceived mental health.
Conclusions
More systematic research with larger sample sizes is required to overcome sampling bias and include health care professionals' perspectives, as well as help patients mobilize support from health care professionals and social network partners. The evidence so far suggests that patients should be provided with digital interventions to manage symptoms and reintegrate into everyday life, including work.},

Following the PICO scheme, we summarized previous studies. Studies varied in terms of participants (P), ranging from adults in different countries, such as former hospitalized patients with COVID-19, to individuals in disadvantaged communities in the United Kingdom, as well as health care workers. In addition, the studies included patients who had previously been infected with COVID-19 and who had ongoing symptoms. Some studies focused on individuals with specific symptoms, including those with either post-COVID-19 or long-term symptoms, while other studies included patients based on participation in online peer-support groups. The interventions (I) also varied. Most interventions used a combination of psychological and physical exercises, but they varied in duration, frequency, and social dimensions. The reviewed studies investigated the physical and mental health conditions of patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms. Most studies had no control (C) group, and most studies reported outcomes (O) or improvements in physiological health perception, some physical conditions, fatigue, and some psychological aspects such as depression. However, some studies found no improvements in bowel or bladder problems, concentration, short-term memory, unpleasant dreams, physical ailments, perceived bodily pain, emotional ailments, and perceived mental health.
Conclusions
More systematic research with larger sample sizes is required to overcome sampling bias and include health care professionals' perspectives, as well as help patients mobilize support from health care professionals and social network partners. The evidence so far suggests that patients should be provided with digital interventions to manage symptoms and reintegrate into everyday life, including work.
Patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms need support, and health care professionals need to be able to provide evidence-based patient care. Digital interventions can meet these requirements, especially if personal contact is limited.
Objective
We reviewed evidence-based digital interventions that are currently available to help manage physical and mental health in patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms.
Methods
A scoping review was carried out summarizing novel digital health interventions for treating post-COVID/long-COVID patients. Using the PICO (population, intervention, comparison, outcome) scheme, original studies were summarized, in which patients with post-COVID/long-COVID symptoms used digital interventions to help aid recovery.
