Design: Feasibility and pilot cluster randomised controlled trial. Clusters were community midwifery teams.
Background: The Treatment of Mechanically Ventilated Adults with Early Activity and Mobilisation (TEAM) trial reported a higher occurrence of adverse events with greater mobilisation. However, their timing and nature remained unexplored. We conducted an in-depth exploration of such events.

Therefore, identifying a provocative test to diagnose an OXT-D will be important. Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a candidate for such a test as it increases oxytocin secretion in animal models.

As electronic health record (EHR) workload and teamwork have been identified as major contributing factors to physician well-being, we aimed to mitigate burnout through EHR-based interventions and a compassion team practice (CTP), targeting EHR workload and team cohesion.
Methods: A modified stepped wedge-clustered randomized trial was conducted, involving specialties with heavy InBasket workloads.
