Objective: Trauma survivors are more likely than others to use cannabis, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) commonly co-occurs with cannabis use disorder (CUD). Automatic memory associations between trauma reminders and cannabis use have been suggested as contributing mechanisms. These associations can be studied experimentally by manipulating trauma cue exposure in a cue-reactivity paradigm (CRP) and examining effects on the accessibility of cannabis information in memory in trauma survivors with and without PTSD.

Inconsistent documentation of large-volume paracentesis (LVP) procedures in a tertiary hospital presents risks to patient safety and procedural quality. This study aimed to improve the completeness and accuracy of LVP documentation through the implementation of a structured checklist, developed in alignment with the British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG) Safety Toolkit. The intervention was conducted over three Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles and involved multidisciplinary collaboration, the integration of Local Safety Standards for Invasive Procedures (LocSSIPs) into the Clinical Record System (CRS), and targeted training for staff.
