Introduction: Clinical medicine is becoming more complex and increasingly requires a team-based approach to deliver healthcare needs. This dispersion of cognitive reasoning across individuals, teams and systems (termed "distributed cognition") means that our understanding of cognitive biases and errors must expand beyond traditional "in-the-head" individual mental models and focus on a broader "out-in-the-world" context instead. To our knowledge, no qualitative studies thus far have examined cognitive biases in clinical settings from a team-based sociocultural perspective.

Objective: This study aims to summarize the best available evidence on the effectiveness of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) in preventing and managing low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) among patients with rectal cancer, with the goal of enhancing quality of care.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted across databases, including BMJ Best Practice, UpToDate, WHO, GIN, UK NICE, NGC, SIGN, RNAO, NCCN, JBI Library, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Web of Science, Embase, OVID, PubMed, Chinese Wanfang, CNKI, SinoMed, and VIP, covering publications from inception through June 30, 2024. We targeted clinical decisions, guidelines, evidence summaries, expert consensus statements, systematic reviews, and randomized controlled trials related to PFMT for LARS in patients with rectal cancer.

Chronic exertional compartment syndrome is a well-described potential cause of leg pain in high-level athletes and soldiers. Surgical treatment of chronic exertional compartment syndrome usually involves fasciotomy, with a reported rate of complications of up to 16%, including failure of complete compartmental release and delayed return to normal daily activity, which can take up to 6 to 12 weeks. The use of a minimally invasive approach under ultrasound guidance seems to improve clinical outcomes in young active patients.

Background: NICE guidelines advocate that healthcare professionals should aim to use non-pharmacological and person-centred approaches as primary strategies to reduce or prevent distress in people living with dementia who reside within care settings. However, despite these recommendations, recent studies have illustrated that there is still a requirement for healthcare professionals to have adequate opportunities to access training programmes and guidance on how to effectively use non-pharmacological approaches in dementia care settings. Communication and Interaction Training (CAIT) was developed to train healthcare professionals in dementia care on how to apply person-centred principles to effectively reduce or negate distress in people living with dementia in a non-invasive manner.

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation Implantation Combining Ultrasound With Microendoscopy for Management of Chronic Neuropathic Pain: A Case Series Study.

Neuromodulation

December 2024

Background: Peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has emerged as a minimally invasive percutaneous procedure addressing neuropathic pain. However, the percutaneous cylindrical lead ultrasound-guided implantation procedure requires expertise that limits widespread PNS utilization. To overcome these challenges, a microinvasive endoscopy device has very recently been developed, enhancing the precision of PNS implantation by providing accurate visualization of the targeted nerve.
