Resorbable Patient-Specific Implants of Molybdenum for Pediatric Craniofacial Surgery-Proof of Concept in an In Vivo Pilot Study.

Titanium continues to be the gold standard in the field of osteosynthesis materials. This also applies to pediatric craniofacial surgery. Various resorbable materials have already been developed in order to avoid costly and risky second operations to remove metal in children.

Advancing the methodology of mapping reviews: A scoping review.

This scoping review aims to identify and systematically review published mapping reviews to assess their commonality and heterogeneity and determine whether additional efforts should be made to standardise methodology and reporting. The following databases were searched; Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Campbell collaboration database, Social Science Abstracts, Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA). Following a pilot-test on a random sample of 20 citations included within title and abstracts, two team members independently completed all screening.

Barriers and facilitators related to healthcare practitioner use of real time prescription monitoring tools in Australia.

Introduction: Real time prescription monitoring tools have been implemented in Australia to address the growing concerns of drug misuse, drug-related mortality and morbidity. The objective of this pilot study is to investigate the barriers and facilitators related to healthcare practitioner use of real time prescription monitoring tools.

Methods: An online survey was distributed to Australian prescribers and pharmacists who use a real time prescription monitoring tool.

: Healthcare practitioner use of real-time prescription monitoring tools: an online survey.

Objective The aim of this study is to investigate how healthcare practitioners use real-time prescription monitoring tools in clinical practice. Methods An online survey was distributed to Australian prescribers and pharmacists who use a real-time prescription monitoring tool. Data were analysed and descriptive statistics summarised participant characteristics and responses.

Health-care practitioner use of prescription drug monitoring programs in clinical practice in Australia: A qualitative study.

Introduction: Prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP) are electronic databases used by prescribers and pharmacists to monitor the use of high-risk prescription medications subject to extramedical use. This study aimed to explore how Australian pharmacists and prescribers are using PDMPs in practice and to gain an understanding of barriers to tool use, as well as practitioner recommendations to increase tool usability and uptake.

Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with pharmacists and prescribers who use a PDMP (n = 21).
