Improving continence management for people with dementia in the community in Aotearoa, New Zealand: Protocol for a mixed methods study.

Background: The number of people living with dementia (PLWD) in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) was estimated at 96,713 in 2020 and it is anticipated that this number will increase to 167,483 by 2050, including an estimated 12,039 Māori (indigenous people of NZ) with dementia. Experiencing urinary incontinence (UI) or faecal incontinence (FI) is common for PLWD, particularly at the later stages of the disease. However, there is no robust estimate for either prevalence or incidence of UI or FI for PLWD in NZ.

Exemplary post-discharge stroke rehabilitation programs: A multiple case study.

Objective: The objective of this study was to identify essential aspects of exemplary post-discharge stroke rehabilitation as perceived by patients, care partners, rehabilitation providers, and administrators.

Design: We carried out an exploratory qualitative, multiple case study. Stroke network representatives from four regions of the province of Ontario, Canada each nominated one post-discharge rehabilitation program they felt was exemplary.

The implications of the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations for design and allocation of rehabilitation after hospital discharge: a problematization.

: Implementation of the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations has improved inpatient rehabilitation. As attention is turned to the design and allocation of rehabilitation after hospitalization, examination of their implications for post-discharge rehabilitation could help optimize service planning Critical discourse analysis modeled on Alvesson and Sandberg's method of problematization was conducted to determine how the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations envision and shape post-discharge rehabilitation, and identify any tensions and potential ways to resolve them. Within the Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations post-discharge rehabilitation is implicitly viewed as a continuation of inpatient rehabilitation.

2D molybdenum disulphide (2D-MoS2) modified electrodes explored towards the oxygen reduction reaction.

Two-dimensional molybdenum disulphide nanosheets (2D-MoS2) have proven to be an effective electrocatalyst, with particular attention being focused on their use towards increasing the efficiency of the reactions associated with hydrogen fuel cells. Whilst the majority of research has focused on the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER), herein we explore the use of 2D-MoS2 as a potential electrocatalyst for the much less researched Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR). We stray from literature conventions and perform experiments in 0.
