Background: Falls in hospitals continue to burden patients, staff, and health systems. Prevention approaches are varied, as well as their success at preventing falls. Intervention component analysis (ICA) is useful in indicating important features associated with successful interventions in sets of trial with high heterogeneity.

Although the incidence of T1D is not affected by socioeconomic status, the development of complications and limited access to modern therapy is overrepresented in vulnerable populations. Diabetes technology, specifically continuous glucose monitoring and automated insulin delivery systems, are considered the gold standard for management of T1D, yet access to these technologies varies widely across countries and regions, and varies widely even within high-income countries.

- - The study aimed to investigate parents' experiences with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for their young children who have early-stage type 1 diabetes enrolled in the ENDIA study.
- - A total of nine parents participated in semi-structured phone interviews after a CGM monitoring period, highlighting three key themes: empowerment through information, acceptance of CGM use, and the benefits of involvement in research.
- - Results showed that parents had a positive experience with their children's use of CGM, feeling supported and less uncertain about managing their child's diabetes with the valuable data provided by the monitoring.
Objectives: To describe end of life care in settings where, in the UK, most children die; to explore commonalities and differences within and between settings; and to test whether there are distinct, alternative models of end of life care.
Methods: An online survey of UK neonatal units (NNUs), paediatric intensive care units (PICUs) and children/young people's cancer principal treatment centres (PTCs) collected data on aspects of service organisation, delivery and practice relevant to end of life outcomes or experiences (referred to as the core elements of end of life care) across three domains: care of the child, care of the parent and bereavement care.
Results: 91 units/centres returned a survey (37% response rate).
