Feasibility of per-operative transperineal ultrasounds in the visualization of the anterior mesh during laparoscopic sacral colpopexy.

When treating anterior and apical prolapse, laparoscopic sacral colpopexy is the gold standard. Currently, it is suggested that the anterior mesh must be the lowest possible to better treat the prolapse and lower the risk of recurrence. The objective of our study was to determine the possibility of using intraoperative transperineal ultrasound measurements during laparoscopic sacral colpopexy in order to better localize the mesh positioning.

PRESIUS, Predictive value of sonographic functional urethral length and urethral closure angle for the diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence.

Introduction: Numerous anatomical theories have been developed to explain women stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and improve its management. The transperineal ultrasound is an efficient and non-invasive exam that perfectly studies the bladder neck movement and the urethral anatomy. The measurement of the static portion of the distal urethral length, considered as the functional urethral length (FUL), and of the posterior urethral closure angle (PUCA) have not been studied before and could be of interest.

Caregiver Medication Information Needs and Medication Management Challenges in Pediatric Cancer: A Systematic Review.

The objective of this systematic review was to identify the medication information needs and preferences of caregivers of children with cancer and explore the medication management challenges these caregivers experienced. We conducted a systematic search of three databases (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Embase, and Medline) for studies published from database inception to February 27, 2024, and assessed the medication information needs of caregivers of children with cancer. The methodological quality of qualitative studies was assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Qualitative Research Checklist.

Detecting and managing cognitive impairment in cardiac patients: insights from qualitative interviews with nurses.

Cognitive impairment and cardiovascular disease often coexist, and nurses are ideally positioned to detect and manage cognitive impairment in cardiac patients. This study explored nurses' perspectives on understanding, detecting, and acting on cognitive impairment in cardiac patients. Using an exploratory descriptive design, nurses from acute and outpatient cardiac units were interviewed.
