AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
There are inadequacies in the practice-readiness of junior doctors for providing acute care in areas of clinical deterioration. In addition, the existing undergraduate curricula are fragmented in how acute care is taught in medical schools. We propose twelve tips for developing a systematic acute care curriculum, including what to teach, how to teach it and, how to assess. Furthermore, we propose and incorporate an acute care learning dashboard as an assessment tool which collates and demonstrates the occurrence of learning, faculty feedback, and students' reflection. We also summarise the existing online resources available for acute care training. We hope to address the existing issues and improve acute care training to prepare the graduates to become practice-ready professionals.

Background: The factors influencing nurses' knowledge of delirium in acute care settings have not been fully investigated in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate these factors among nurses in acute care settings in the northern region of Saudi Arabia.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a convenience sample of 234 acute care nurses at the main public hospitals in the Hail region of Saudi Arabia.

Background Cholangitis, or bile duct infection, can present in two primary forms, namely, acute ascending cholangitis (the milder form) and acute fulminant cholangitis (the more severe variety). In all types of cholangitis, bile duct obstruction occurs, with choledocholithiasis (the presence of gallstones in the bile duct) being the leading cause of this blockage. is the most commonly isolated pathogen in these infections.

To obtain broad regulatory approval for a new analgesic agent in acute postoperative pain, US and European regulatory authorities require pivotal studies in both hard (bony) tissue pain and soft tissue pain. Bunionectomy is by far the most common hard tissue pivotal trial model, in spite of the fact that the model has limited relevance to clinicians prescribing pain drugs (pain from bunionectomy is not extreme or long-lasting, and is adequately treated by existing drugs). The authors outline the experimental characteristics that make bunionectomy an appealing study model for researchers despite its lack of clinical relevance compared to larger surgeries.

Introduction: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) pose a significant challenge in acute care hospitals, particularly in intensive care units, due to persistent environmental contamination despite existing disinfection protocols and manual cleaning methods. Current disinfection methods are labor-intensive and often ineffective against multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens, highlighting the need for new, automated, hands-free approaches.
Methods: This study evaluates the bactericidal efficacy of low concentrations of gaseous ozone (5 ppm) against clinically relevant and often MDR bacteria under various concentrations, contact times, temperatures, and environmental conditions.
Acute metabolic decompensation after liver transplant in a patient with maple syrup urine disease.

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by the accumulation of branched-chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine) caused by a defect in the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex. Liver transplant is an effective therapy for MSUD, and patients can usually tolerate a regular diet after transplant without symptomatic metabolic decompensation. Most post-transplant patients do not follow a sick-day diet.
