Simulation-based training in ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia for emergency physicians: insights from an Italian pre/post intervention study.

Emergency Medicine Unit and Emergency Medicine Postgraduate Training Program, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Pavia, IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo Foundation, Pavia, Italy.
Background: Despite the importance of Ultrasound-guided Regional Anaesthesia (UGRA) in Emergency Medicine (EM), there is significant variability in UGRA training among emergency physicians. We recently developed a one-day (8 h), simulation-based UGRA course, specifically tailored to help emergency physicians to integrate these skills into their clinical practice.
Methods: In this pre/post intervention study, emergency physicians attended a course consisting of a 4-hour teaching on background knowledge and a practical part structured as follows: a scanning session on a healthy individual; a needling station with an ex-vivo model (turkey thighs); a simulation-based learning experience on local anaesthetic toxicity (LAST); a session on the UGRA simulator BlockSim™.
The Janus-faced nature of complement in hemodialysis: interplay between complement, inflammation, and bioincompatibility unveiling a self-amplifying loop contributing to organ damage.

In hemodialysis (HD), complement activation, bioincompatibility, and inflammation are intricately intertwined. In the 1970s, as HD became a routine therapy, the observation of complement pathway activation and transient leukopenia by cellulosic dialysis membranes triggered the bioincompatibility debate and its clinical relevance. Extensive deliberations have covered definitions, assessment markers, scope, and long-term clinical consequences of membrane-dependent bioincompatibility reactions.

The impact of angiotensin-receptor neprilysin inhibitors on cardiovascular events and solute transport function in peritoneal dialysis patients: a multicenter retrospective controlled study.
Ren Fail
December 2024
Department of Nephrology, Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Background: Whether angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events and improve peritoneal function in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients remains unclear. Thus, this study aims to clarify the role of ARNI in PD patients.
Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective study.
