Nil by mouth in intensive care - A qualitative, multiformat survey exploring the impact of mandatory oral restriction, from the health care providers perspective.

Introduction And Objectives: Nil by mouth (NBM) is a frequent imposition for patients recovering from critical illness. Its impact on patients' wellbeing and rehabilitation is under researched. We sought ICU multidisciplinary opinion to primarily assess the relevance of taste deprivation on patient care and recovery, and to identify future opportunities for innovation and research.

Racial and Ethnic Differences in Long-Term Outcomes among Individuals with Opioid Use Disorder at Opioid Treatment Programs.

Objectives: Racial and ethnic differences in long-term outcomes associated with medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) are poorly understood.

Methods: The present analyses were based on 751 participants with opioid use disorder (OUD) who were initially recruited from opioid treatment programs located in California, Connecticut, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Washington and participated in a randomized controlled trial and at least one follow-up interview. 9.

Medications for Opioid Use Disorder Among Transition Age Youth Compared to Adults 26 or Older in Rural Settings.

Objective: Transition age youth (TAY), aged 18 to 25 years, face barriers to medication treatment for opioid use disorder (MOUD), resulting in lower retention. We evaluated OUD prevalence and MOUD receipt comparing TAY to adults aged 26 or older residing in rural settings.

Method: Electronic health records (October 2019 to January 2021) for 36,762 patients across 6 primary care clinics involved in a large feasibility trial in US rural communities were analyzed.

'Without the Data You're Not Going to Know If It's Important or Not': A Mixed Methods Study on What Dysphagia Intervention Outcomes are Important to People with Parkinson's Disease and Family Members.

The lack of patient and public involvement in oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) intervention studies in Parkinson's disease (PD) can bias the choice of outcomes to be measured in these studies. This study aimed to obtain perspectives of individuals living with OD in PD and family members/caregivers on OD intervention outcomes that are important to them. This is part of a larger Core Outcome Set project.

The In-Hospital Code Stroke: A Look Back and the Road Ahead.

With increased patient volumes and complexity, stroke occurrence in hospitalized patients has become relatively more common. The process of activating a code stroke in-hospital differs in many institutions. An emergency team-based response to inpatient acute code stroke is warranted, with many protocols modeled similarly to the cardiac arrest response.
