Delphi consensus recommendations for neuraxial anaesthesia in adults with platelet disorders and coagulation defects: Communication from the ISTH SSC Subcommittee on von Willebrand factor.

Background: Neuraxial anaesthesia is used for pain management in surgical and non-surgical settings. Spinal/epidural haematomas likely occur in between 1:10,000 and 1:200,000 procedures. Risk is thought to be greater in patients with bleeding disorders/thrombocytopenia and there are no existing comprehensive recommendations to guide neuraxial anaesthesia in these patients.

Improving Medication Adherence in Psychiatric Patients With a Medication Adherence Program.

Background: It's estimated that over 50% of patients prescribed antipsychotic medication are nonadherent to the prescribed treatment.

Thus bolstering the importance of routine nursing follow-up interventions to improve adherence rates in patient with SMI.

Improving medical students' responses to emergencies with a simulated cross-cover paging curriculum.

New residents are often unprepared to respond to medical emergencies. To address this gap, we implemented a simulated cross-cover paging curriculum. All senior medical students enrolled in a required specialty-specific (internal medicine, procedures, emergency medicine [EM], obstetrics and gynecology [OBGYN], family medicine and pediatrics) residency preparation course (RPC) in 2020-2021 participated.

Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) in the emergency department: a scoping review.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current state of the literature on UGRA performed in the ED setting.

Methods: EMBASE, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Cochrane databases were searched for studies.
