Intravascular Imaging-Guided Versus Angiography-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in the United States.

Background: The role of Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) is still unclear in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI in the current second-generation DES era.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the trends and outcomes of IVUS-guided PCI in patients with STEMI.

Methods: We used the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2016 to 2021.

Theory-based behaviour modification of Asian adults with type-2 diabetes mellitus after participating in a novel telemonitoring system: a qualitative research study.

Exploring the Feasibility of a Caregiver Burden-Mastery Hybrid Assessment Tool With Decision Matrix in a Memory Clinic: A Multimethod Study.

Introduction: Family members caring for a person living with dementia (PWD) can experience caregiver burden, leading to psychological distress if unmanaged. It's essential for healthcare professionals, especially nurses to identify caregivers at risk of stress and depression, triggering prompt management during their contact with caregivers of PWD. The study team developed an evidence-based caregiver burden-mastery hybrid assessment and intervention decision matrix (CHAT-MI) for caregivers of PWD and examined its feasibility of use.
