Poly-skilling and advanced practice roles in perioperative care: protocol for a realist synthesis of evidence.
BMJ Open

Faculty of Medical Sciences, University College London, London, UK.
Introduction: An ageing population and a workforce crisis have triggered an ambitious UK strategy for sustained delivery of healthcare. In perioperative care (the management of patients from contemplation of surgery until full recovery), it is recognised that interventions are needed to place the workforce on a more sustainable footing through cross-functionality and skill-shifting, namely with advanced practice roles. However, despite some reports and reviews in the literature, it is unclear how skills development efforts may potentially support workforce transformation for an effective and resilient perioperative care workforce.

A lumbar puncture may be performed for various reasons, but is commonly used to facilitate the diagnosis of central nervous system infections in infants and children. It involves inserting a needle into the lower spine to obtain cerebrospinal fluid, which is then sent for testing in a laboratory. The results of the tests, together with a clinical assessment of a patient, can guide the effective treatment of infections and reduce the risk of neurological conditions.

Public Health Res (Southampt)

Population Health Sciences, Bristol Medical School, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK.
Background: Physical activity is essential for long-term health, yet data from before the COVID-19 pandemic showed only 41% of 10- to 11-year-olds met the UK government's physical activity recommendations. Children's physical activity was limited during the national COVID-19 lockdowns. It is important to measure children's physical activity in the recovery period to assess the short- and medium-term impact of the lockdowns.
