The Pennsylvania Patient Safety Reporting System (PA-PSRS, pronounced PAY-sirs) is a confidential, statewide reporting system on the Internet to which all Pennsylvania hospitals, outpatient-surgery facilities, and birthing centers, as well as some abortion facilities, were required to file information on medical errors beginning in June 2004.Safety Monitor, this column in AJN from PA-PSRS, informs nurses on issues that can affect patient safety and presents strategies they can integrate easily into practice.For more information on PA-PSRS, visit the Web site of Pennsylvania's Patient Safety Authority, at www.psa.state.pa.us. For the original articles discussed in this column or for other articles on patient safety, click on "Advisories and Related Resources" in the left-hand navigation menu.This is a periodic column from the Pennsylvania Patient Safety Reporting System.

Efficacy of Ceftazidime-avibactam in treating Gram-negative infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis
January 2025
University of Sassari, Sassari, Italy.
Introduction: Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) has emerged as a promising treatment option for Gram-negative infections, particularly those caused by CAZ-Non-Susceptible (NS) pathogens. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to assess the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI in these challenging infections.
Methods: We systematically queried EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and PubMed/Medline for studies published until September 15, 2024.
Vascular Access and Closure Management for Electrophysiological Interventions: Small Interventions Big Impact.
Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Heart Division, Royal Brompton Hospital, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.
Purpose Of The Review: This review examines the role of vascular access and closure management in cardiac electrophysiology (EP) procedures, emphasising their impact on patient outcomes and safety. It synthesises current evidence and highlights advancements, challenges, and opportunities in this critical area of EP practice.

N-Glycosylation modulators for targeted manipulation of glycosylation for monoclonal antibodies.
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
January 2025
School of Interdisciplinary Research, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, Hauz Khas, New Delhi, 110016, India.
Monoclonal antibodies are extensively used as biotherapeutics for treatment of a variety of diseases. Glycosylation of therapeutic antibodies is considered a critical quality attribute as it influences the effector function, circulatory half-life, immunogenicity, and eventually efficacy and patient safety. During upstream process development, media components play a significant role in determining the glycosylation profile.

Eur Spine J
January 2025
Fundación Valle del Lili, Santiago de Cali, Colombia.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous perispinal infiltration of low dose of triamcinolone and lidocaine indicated for pain control in patients with cervical osteoarthritis (COA).
Methods: Patients with symptomatic COA resistant to conventional treatment including anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics, and physical therapy were included. Technetium-99 m pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) scintigraphy and computerized tomography (CT) fusion scans images were used for diagnosis of COA and as a guide for level(s) of infiltration(s).
