[Nursing prioritization and rationing decisions in acute care hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic: a qualitative study].

Nursing prioritization and rationing decisions in acute care hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic: a qualitative study The Covid-19 pandemic has put decisions regarding prioritization and rationing of care resources on the health policy agenda. The effects on the allocation of nursing resources in clinical practice are unclear. In order to derive implications for future pandemic situations, we analyzed the extent to which decisions were made about the distribution of resources in acute inpatient care and how bottlenecks were dealt with.

How Different Are Family Medicine Residents Who Desire Additional Training?

Background And Objectives: Limited knowledge is present regarding how fellowship training correlates with graduate outcomes and whether current residents desire an additional year of residency training. The aim of this study is to examine trends in fellowship training and compare residency and practice outcomes between those interested and those not interested in fellowship training as well as the proportion of residents desiring an additional year of residency training.

Methods: We compared data from the American Board of Family Medicine Initial Certification Questionnaire (2017-2019) to the National Graduate Survey (NGS; 2020-2022).

The Manifestations of "l-Doubling" in Gas-Phase Rotational Dynamics.

The "l-Doubling" phenomenon emanates from the coupling between molecular rotations and perpendicular vibrations (bending modes) in polyatomic molecules. This elusive phenomenon has been largely discarded in laser-induced molecular alignment. Here we explore and unveil the ramifications of l-Doubling on the coherent rotational dynamics of linear triatomic molecules at ambient temperatures and above.

Assessment tools addressing avoidable care transitions in older adults: a systematic literature review.

Purpose: The phenomenon of avoidable care transitions has received increasing attention over the last decades due to its frequency and associated burden for the patients and the healthcare system. A number of assessment tools to identify avoidable transitions have been designed and implemented. The selection of the most appropriate tool appears to be challenging and time-consuming.

Utilisation of blood glucose test strips in insulin-requiring people with diabetes mellitus using continuous glucose monitoring in Saxony-Anhalt - Analysis of health insurance data.

Aims: Continuous glucose measurement (CGM) systems are increasingly utilised by people with diabetes mellitus (DM) and less is known about usage behaviour. Therefore, this study aims to analyse additionally utilisation of blood glucose measurement (BGM) for insurants who are using CGM.

Methods: The study used secondary data, health claims data from the AOK Saxony-Anhalt (Germany), from 2016 to 2021, analysing a sample of 52,296 individuals with insulin-requiring DM.
