Ongoing challenges in the provision of care, driven by growing care complexity and nursing shortages, prompt us to reconsider the basis for efficient division of nursing labour. In organising nursing work, traditionally the focus has been on identifying nursing tasks that can be delegated to other less expensive and less highly educated staff, in order to make best use of scarce resources. We argue that nursing care activities are connected and intertwined.

However, despite their increasing prevalence, it is unclear how CoCE are identified and monitored. This paper explores how CoCE has been described in the literature, including its defining characteristics and selection and monitoring processes.

The Société de Pathologie Infectieuse de Langue Française released in 2024 a new national recommendation for clinical practice on the prevention and management of varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection during pregnancy and the perinatal period. The previous recommendation was issued in 1998, at a time of anti-VZV immunoglobulins shortage; it has hence become obsolete. This recommendation is a formalized expert consensus focusing on infectious diseases management; it is drawn up by a multidisciplinary working group (infectiologists, obstetricians, pediatricians, microbiologists, midwives, hygienists).

Background: Patients with cancer account for 15% of all admissions to critical care and so an understanding of the pathophysiology and anticipated complications of specialist treatment is essential for the intensive care clinician. The development of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for haematological malignancies and immune checkpoint inhibitors for solid organ tumours has led to significant improvements in the prognosis of those patients whose tumours respond. This review is intended to provide the non-specialist with an understanding of the current concepts in pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of complications due to chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors for malignant disease.
