The Standards of Best Practice: Simulation are a resource for quality and consistency of simulation, evaluation of outcomes, and improvement of simulation programs. The Standards provide guidelines for practice and a vital framework for strategic planning, research, and faculty development. This article discusses challenges and shares approaches to enhance implementation of the Standards into practice to improve education, increase patient safety, and reduce variability in simulation experiences.

Allergen immunotherapy: How to stay current with USP 797 and practice guidelines.
Allergy Asthma Proc
January 2025
The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Chapter 797 provides critical standards for compounding sterile preparations to ensure patient safety and medication efficacy. The latest revision, effective November 1, 2023, introduces updates particularly relevant to the compounding of allergenic extracts, which emphasizes stringent compliance measures. This article aims to review the key updates to USP Chapter 797, outline the compliance requirements for personnel and facilities, and offer strategies for staying current with these practice guidelines, leveraging resources from professional organizations such as American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology and American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology.

Background: Wide QRS complex tachycardia (WCT) differentiation into ventricular tachycardia (VT) and supraventricular wide complex tachycardia (SWCT) remains challenging despite numerous 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) criteria and algorithms. Automated solutions leveraging computerized ECG interpretation (CEI) measurements and engineered features offer practical ways to improve diagnostic accuracy. We propose automated algorithms based on (i) WCT QRS polarity direction (WCT Polarity Code [WCT-PC]) and (ii) QRS polarity shifts between WCT and baseline ECGs (QRS Polarity Shift [QRS-PS]).

Background: A high proportion of patients admitted to hospital are at nutritional risk or have malnutrition. However, this risk is often not identified at admission, which may result in longer hospital stays and increased likelihood of death. The Integrated Nutrition Pathway for Acute Care (INPAC) was developed to provide clinicians with a standardized approach to prevent, detect, and treat malnutrition in hospital.

With advances in biomarker-based detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and new treatment options with disease-modifying treatments (DMTs), we are heading toward a new conceptualization of diagnostics and therapy in the early stages of AD. Yet consensus guidelines on best clinical practices in predictive AD diagnostics are still developing. Currently, there is a knowledge gap regarding counseling and disclosure practices in early symptomatic disease stages, its implications for dementia risk estimation, and DMTs with associated risks and benefits.
