Career Summary
Biography
Dr Andrea Coda is a Senior Lecturer, Program Convenor (Research Hons, Central Coast Campus) and Mid-Career Researcher at the School of Health and Science, Faculty of Health and Medicine. Dr Coda is an senior member of the Priority Research Centre for Health Behaviour (PRCHB) at the Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI).
Dr Coda is originally from Biella (Italy), he then moved to Scotland, where he completed his undergraduate training as a Podiatrist at Queen Margaret University (QMU) - Edinburgh, UK. As part of Dr Coda’s PhD at QMU, he successfully completed a multi-centre randomised controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the clinical effectiveness of foot orthoses on pain, quality of life and gait dynamics of patients diagnosed with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). This published work is providing new cost-effective evidence for clinicians working within the paediatric rheumatology multidisciplinary team. Dr Coda was awarded his PhD in 2013 whilst working at QMU also as an academic. In July 2013, Dr Coda joined the University of Newcastle (UON), and since then he coordinated multiple courses and lectured across all years of the Podiatry programs; including laboratory classes and tutorials.
As a clinician, Dr Coda has been extensively involved in proving podiatric care for different public and private clinics, predominantly in the areas of paediatrics, musculoskeletal, arthritis and diabetes. Dr Coda currently continues to support his UON students and the community at different local hospitals and outpatient clinics.
Between 2015 and 2017 Dr Coda served as the ‘Research Ethics Advisor’ (REA) for the Faculty of Health and Medicine and member of the 'Human Research Ethics Committee’ (HREC) at UON.
In 2016, Dr Coda established new strategic links between the ‘European Dementia Consortium’ and HMRI. As an Associate Investigator, he was involved with a successful NHMRC grant (APP1137807) 'Boosting Dementia Research Grant' (worth $1,312,455) that aimed to implement a web-based program to detect and meet the needs of people with dementia and their caregivers living in rural areas.
Dr Coda is passionate about establishing strategic links with leading eHealth Institutions and this has enabled him to undertake four International Fellowships in Europe. In 2018, he was appointed ‘Conjoint Senior Lecturer’ from the University of Manresa-Barcelona (Spain) and was the youngest international funding member at the ‘Research and Innovation eHealth Centre’ (Barcelona). This enabled him to instigate new strategic industry connections with telecommunications leaders such as ‘Vodafone’ in the effort to expand research investments to fund UON eHealth projects in Paediatric Rheumatology, Symptomatic Hypermobility, Type 2 Diabetes, and Dementia.
Dr Coda has a strong commitment to innovation that recently led him to develop an innovative podiatric commercial patent with important Australian med-tech industry partners. Dr Coda also pioneered and validated a new Health Platform (www.interactiveclinics.com – App currently available on Google Play and Apple Store) capable of monitoring live symptoms progression, physical-activity, medication-adherence, blood glucose level in both children and adults. He is currently leading multiple national and international research projects utilizing this innovative health platform.
Dr Coda was the recipient of the inaugural ‘Industry Engagement Excellence Award’ at UON (2019), for his distinguished contributions towards establishing new commercial patents and strategic international partnerships with prestigious industry leaders, such as Vodafone, Abbott Pharmaceutical, CoBond and BitGemona. Dr Coda was awarded also by the ‘Foot & Ankle Scotland Society’ at The Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh’ (2013) for his research commitment in Paediatric Rheumatology.
Finally, Dr Coda’s vision is to provide a seminal contribution in how to best overcome the multiple barriers facing health care today by introducing innovative approaches through the use of smart technologies. A model that has to potential to be easily accessible, rapidly translated in the community and sustainable.

[more] Objective The aim of the present survey of parent and carers was to document the level of care and services currently provided to children diagnosed with rheumatic diseases (RD) in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Methods The survey included parents and carers of children presenting to paediatric rheumatology (PR) services in NSW. Subjects attending PR clinics in both public and private settings were invited to participate in an online or paper survey. Results Overall, 148 surveys were completed. The process of obtaining the diagnosis of RD was described as being 'difficult' or 'very difficult' by 56.1% (n=83) of the surveyed cohort, and 41.2% (n=61) saw four or more different clinicians before diagnosis. Between symptom onset and final diagnosis, 42.6% (n=63) of participants reported a delay of 5 months or more, and 16.9% (n=25) waited longer than 12 months. Eventually, 91% (n=134) were referred to a paediatric rheumatologist and 63.5% (n=94) were seen within 4 weeks from initial referral. More than half the respondents felt that general practitioners (GPS) and general paediatricians were not aware of RD. Overall, respondents felt that improved knowledge of PR diseases among GPS, improved access to PR clinics, improved educational materials for patients and families, access to speciality rheumatology nurses and coordinated rheumatology teams would have significantly improved the experience of their child's disease. Conclusions Children with RD in NSW still experience significant delays from symptom onset to final diagnosis through consultations with multiple healthcare professionals. Multidisciplinary team care was not the norm for this patient group, despite established national and international management standards. What is known about the topic? Early diagnosis and management by a multidisciplinary team is the gold standard in PR management. Delays in diagnosis may significantly impair the outcomes of children diagnosed with RD, with reduced quality of life, increased pain level and worse long-term prognosis. What does this paper add? Children diagnosed with RD in NSW endure significant delays from symptom onset until a final diagnosis is made, with multiple consultations with different healthcare professionals. When the referral to PR services in NSW is made, RD children are mostly seen within 4 weeks, faster than other international standards. GPS and paediatric rheumatologists in NSW helped improve the children's and their family's experience of the diagnosis and treatment of a rheumatic condition and better informed them using appropriate educational materials. What are the implications for practitioners' This paper provides new evidence to practitioners to increase their knowledge of the current experiences and expectation of the paediatric rheumatology care in NSW.

Data Sources: An electronic literature search of the following databases from database inception to May 2015 was conducted: MEDLINE (Ovid), EMBASE (Ovid), Cochrane CENTRAL, and clinicaltrials.gov. Study Selection: The Ottawa Panel selection criteria targeted studies that assessed foot care or foot orthotic interventions for the management of JIA in those aged 0 to =18 years. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale was used to evaluate study quality, of which only high-quality studies were included (score, =5). A total of 362 records were screened, resulting in 3 full-text articles and 1 additional citation containing supplementary information included for the analysis. Data Extraction: Two reviewers independently extracted study data (intervention, comparator, outcome, time period, study design) from the included studies by using standardized data extraction forms. Directed by Cochrane Collaboration methodology, the statistical analysis produced figures and graphs representing the strength of intervention outcomes and their corresponding grades (A, B, C+, C, C-, D+, D, D-). Clinical significance was achieved when an improvement of =30% between the intervention and control groups was present, whereas P>.05 indicated statistical significance. An expert panel Delphi consensus (=80%) was required for the endorsement of recommendations. Data Synthesis: All included studies were of high quality and analyzed the effects of multidisciplinary foot care, customized foot orthotics, and shoe inserts for the management of JIA. Custom-made foot orthotics and prefabricated shoe inserts displayed the greatest improvement in pain intensity, activity limitation, foot pain, and disability reduction (grades A, C+). Conclusions: The use of customized foot orthotics and prefabricated shoe inserts seems to be a good choice for managing foot pain and function in JIA.

This multicentre randomised controlled trial aimed to determine whether preformed foot orthoses (FOs) impacted on pain and quality of life (QoL) in children with JIA. Methods: Eligible children were randomised to receive either 'fitted ' FOs with customised chair-side corrections or 'control' FOs made without corrections. Changes in pain and QoL were measured using a visual analogue scale and Paediatric Quality of Life questionnaire, respectively. JIA children were assessed at baseline, 3 months and 6 months. Results: 60 children were recruited. 179 out of a possible 180 assessments (99.4%) were completed. A statistically significant greater difference in pain reduction (baseline - 6 months) was seen between the two groups favouring fitted FOs (p=0.029). The reduction in pain in the fitted FOs group was clinically important (8 mm). Significant differences in QoL favouring fitted FOs were also identi fied as measured by the children and independently by their parents/carers. Conclusions: Fitted FOs may reduce pain and improve QoL in selected children with JIA. Trial registration number: NCT02001844.

[more] This study investigated the repeatability and reproducibility of the HR Walkway system with regards to peak pressure values (PP) and pressure time integral (PTI) in healthy children, ranging between 5 and 18 years of age. Subjects recruited took part in two non-invasive clinical assessments, at baseline and 1 week later. Gait analysis was carried out using the PP box approach, and plantar foot recording was divided into 10 anatomical areas. The PP and PTI was investigated for the left, right and both feet accounted together. Interclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) test was adopted for statistical analysis. Overall, 30 healthy patients were recruited and 60 appointments were completed, 53.3% (n= 16) were female and 46.7% (n= 14) were male. Mean age was 13.3 years (SD. = 4.5), with an age-range of 5-18.6 years old. Results indicated that for all variables tested the repeatability data were 'good' ICC for 73.8% (n= 121) and 'moderate' ICC for 26.2% (n= 43). For all variables tested, the reproducibility data showed that 'good' ICC for 70.7% (n= 58) and 'moderate' ICC for 29.3% (n= 24). In conclusion, the HR Walkway system is able to provide repeatable and reproducible data. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
