Timau a rolau for Leigh Sanyaolu
Cymrawd Ymchwil Glinigol (The Wellcome Trust)
Trosolwyg
Rwy'n Gymrawd Doethurol NIHR Ymchwil Iechyd a Gofal Cymru yn yr Is-adran Meddygaeth Poblogaeth, Prifysgol Caerdydd, ac yn Feddyg Teulu ymarferol yn Ne Cymru.
Dyfarnwyd fy Nghrodoriaeth Ddoethurol yn 2021 ac mae fy ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar IMproving Prophylactic Antibiotic use for Recurrent Urinary Tract infection (IMPART). Bydd fy ymchwil yn cyflwyno gwybodaeth newydd am fanteision a niwed gwrthfiotigau dos isel hirdymor ac opsiynau triniaeth nad ydynt yn wrthfiotig ar gyfer heintiau llwybr wrinol ailadroddus. Bydd hyn wedyn yn cael ei integreiddio i gymorth penderfynu cleifion. Bydd hyn yn hwyluso gwneud penderfyniadau a rennir rhwng cleifion a chlinigwyr ar y gwahanol opsiynau i reoli UTIs ailadroddus.

Thesis
Ymchwil
Fy ymchwil gyfredol:
IMproving Prophylactic Antibiotic use for Recurrent Urinary Tract infection (IMPART): astudiaeth dulliau cymysg i fynd i'r afael â bylchau tystiolaeth a datblygu cymorth penderfynu.
Fi yw'r Prif Ymchwilydd ar yr astudiaeth hon fel rhan o Gymrodoriaeth Ddoethurol a PhD a ariennir gan Ymchwil Iechyd a Gofal Cymru. Mae fy goruchwylwyr PhD yn cynnwys Dr Harry Ahmed, Dr Rebecca Cannings-John, yr Athro Fiona Wood a'r Athro Adrian Edwards. Nod yr ymchwil hon yw gwella'r defnydd o wrthfiotigau hirdymor a ddefnyddir i atal heintiau'r llwybr wrinol (UTIs) mewn cleifion sydd ag UTIs ailadroddus.
Bydd yr ymchwil hon yn cynnwys pedwar cam tuag at ddatblygu'r cymorth penderfynu. Bydd y cam cyntaf yn cynnwys asesu'r dystiolaeth ymchwil gyfredol ar wrthfiotigau hirdymor ac opsiynau nad ydynt yn wrthfiotigau ar gyfer UTIs ailadroddus. Bydd yr opsiynau yn cael eu cymharu â'i gilydd i asesu eu heffeithiolrwydd. Bydd y cam hwn hefyd yn asesu'r dystiolaeth sydd ar gael ar bryderon a safbwyntiau cleifion a chlinigwyr i nodi cynnwys allweddol ar gyfer y cymorth penderfynu .
Bydd yr ail gam yn defnyddio data gofal iechyd diogel ac anadnabyddadwy o Gymru gan ddefnyddio'r Banc Data Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL). Bydd cleifion ag UTIs ailadroddus yn cael eu grwpio yn y rhai sy'n cymryd gwrthfiotigau hirdymor a'r rhai nad ydynt. Bydd yr effaith ar ymwrthedd i wrthfiotigau wedyn yn cael ei asesu o ddata samplau ysbyty ac wrin dienw. Bydd y trydydd cam yn cynnwys cleifion a chlinigwyr i sefydlu beth mae'r ddau barti yn teimlo yw'r agweddau pwysig wrth wneud penderfyniad am reoli mewn UTIs ailadroddus. Bydd hyn yn llywio'r cynnwys cymorth penderfynu. Bydd y cam olaf yn cynnwys gofyn i gleifion beth maen nhw'n ei feddwl am y dyluniad cymorth penderfynu cynnar a sut y gellid ei wella.
