Telehealth-Delivered Program and Accompanying Patients to Enhance the Clinical Condition of Patients Throughout a Liver Transplant: Protocol for a Mixed Methods Study.

Background: Liver transplantation (LT) is indicated in patients with severe acute or chronic liver failure for which no other therapy is available. With the increasing number of LTs in recent years, liver centers worldwide must manage their patients according to their clinical situation and the expected waiting time for transplantation. The LT clinic at the Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) is developing a new health care model across the entire continuum of pre-, peri-, and posttransplant care that features patient monitoring by an interdisciplinary team, including an accompanying patient; a digital platform to host a clinical plan; a learning program; and data collection from connected objects.

Simulation-based education to improve management of refractory anaphylaxis in an allergy clinic.

Background: High-fidelity simulations based on real-life clinical scenarios have frequently been used to improve patient care, knowledge and teamwork in the acute care setting. Still, they are seldom included in the allergy-immunology curriculum or continuous medical education. Our main goal was to assess if critical care simulations in allergy improved performance in the clinical setting.

Efficacy and cost-feasibility of the Timely Chest Compression Training (T-CCT): a contextualized cardiopulmonary resuscitation training for personal support workers participating during in-hospital cardiac arrests.

Objectives: The Timely Chest Compression Training (T-CCT) was created to promote more frequent training in chest compressions for personal support workers. This study aims to assess the efficacy of the T-CCT on the chest compression performance and to examine costs related to this intervention.

Methods: A prospective single group, before-after study was conducted at a university-affiliated hospital.
