A Randomized Noninferiority Trial to Compare Enteral to Parenteral Phosphate Replacement on Biochemistry, Waste, and Environmental Impact and Healthcare Cost in Critically Ill Patients With Mild to Moderate Hypophosphatemia.

Objectives: Hypophosphatemia occurs frequently. Enteral, rather than IV, phosphate replacement may reduce fluid replacement, cost, and waste.

Design: Prospective, randomized, parallel group, noninferiority clinical trial.

Feasibility of Embedding a Randomised Clinical Trial (RCT) into an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) for Patients Admitted to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

To establish the feasibility of embedding an RCT into EMR in the ICU, we evaluated the route of phosphate replacement. The EMR screened 207 patients who met the inclusion criteria from 20 April 2022 to 30 June 2022. 162 patients were randomised and 145 patients allocated to treatment.

Venous thromboembolism prophylaxis and related outcomes in patients with traumatic brain injury and prolonged intensive care unit stay.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients with prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay are at risk of secondary intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) and venous thromboembolism (VTE). We aimed to study VTE prophylaxis, secondary ICH, and VTE prevalence and outcomes in this population. Retrospective observational study.

Communication with bereaved family members after death in the ICU: the CATHARTIC randomised clinical trial.

It is uncertain whether psychological distress in the family members of patients who die during an intensive care unit (ICU) admission may be improved by bereavement interventions. In this trial, relatives' symptoms of anxiety and depression after 6 months were measured when allocated to three commonly used bereavement follow-up strategies. Single-centre, randomised, three parallel-group trial.
