Piloting a minimum data set for older people living in care homes in England: a developmental study.
Age Ageing
January 2025
Centre for Research in Public Health and Community Care (CRIPACC), University of Hertfordshire, College Lane, Hatfield, UK.
Background: We developed a prototype minimum data set (MDS) for English care homes, assessing feasibility of extracting data directly from digital care records (DCRs) with linkage to health and social care data.
Methods: Through stakeholder development workshops, literature reviews, surveys and public consultation, we developed an aspirational MDS. We identified ways to extract this from existing sources, including DCRs and routine health and social care datasets.

Background: Delirium is a condition characterized by an acute and transient disturbance in attention, cognition, and consciousness. It is increasingly prevalent at the end of life in patients with cancer. While non-pharmacological nursing interventions are essential for delirium prevention, their effectiveness in terminally ill patients with cancer remains unclear.

Article Synopsis
- - This study analyzed mortality rates among individuals with dementia or mild cognitive impairment who engaged in self-harm over a 14-year period in New South Wales, Australia, finding 1,511 individuals with both conditions.
- - The research indicated that circulatory disorders were the leading cause of death (32%) in this group, with risk factors for mortality including male sex, physical health issues, and a history of delirium, while better engagement with outpatient mental health services decreased the chances of repeat self-harm.
- - The findings emphasize that the risk of death increases when individuals with self-harm also develop dementia, highlighting the need for enhanced support after diagnosis to potentially lower mortality rates.
Assessment of intensive care unit delirium in developmentally delayed children.
Pediatr Res
November 2024
Department of Pharmacy, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, OH, USA.
Pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) delirium is an increasingly common diagnosis with negative impacts on morbidity and mortality. Patients with developmental delay are particularly susceptible to developing ICU delirium due to possible cerebral disease, sensory loss, unfamiliar environment, or use of deliriogenic medications. Of the existing scoring tools to assess for ICU delirium, few have been evaluated for patients with developmental delay.
