Previous work has shown that predischarge opioid use is the most reliable and practical predictor of postdischarge opioid intake after inpatient surgery. However, the most appropriate predischarge time frame for operationalizing this relationship into more individualized prescriptions is unknown. We compared the correlations between the quantity of opioids taken during 5 predischarge time frames and self-reported postdischarge opioid intake in 604 adult surgery patients. We found that the 24-hour predischarge time frame was most strongly correlated (ρ= 0.60, P < .001) with postdischarge opioid use and may provide actionable information for predicting opioid use after discharge.

Functional performance of patients with stroke during inpatient rehabilitation: a cross-sectional study of home and access visits.
BMC Health Serv Res
January 2025
Program in Occupational Therapy, Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine, 4444 Forest Park Ave, Box 8505, St. Louis, MO, 63110, USA.
Background: Home visits prior to inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) discharge allow occupational therapists to observe functional abilities among patients with stroke and address barriers that impact daily activities at home. However, home visits prior to IRF discharge are not standard practice due to barriers of time and cost constraints. We explored whether an access visit (visiting the home without the patient) could serve as an alternative to a home visit (with the patient) to anticipate functional abilities at home.

Department of Orthopedics, Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Nanjing Jiangsu, 210029, P. R. China.
Objective: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted to investigate the early postoperative analgesic effectiveness of using liposomal bupivacaine (LB) for local infiltration anesthesia (LIA) in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).
Methods: Between January 2024 and July 2024, a total of 80 patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) who met the selection criteria were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomly assigned to either the LB group or the "cocktail" group in a 1∶1 ratio using a random number table, with 40 patients in each group.
Facilitators, barriers, and guidance to successful implementation of multidisciplinary transitional care interventions: A qualitative systematic review using the consolidated framework for implementation research.
Int J Nurs Stud Adv

Amsterdam Movement Sciences, Musculoskeletal Health, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background: Multidisciplinary transitional care interventions aim to improve the coordination and continuity of healthcare during hospitalization and after discharge for patients with complex care needs related to physical, nutritional, or psychosocial status. Implementing such interventions is complex as they involve many stakeholders across multiple settings. Numerous studies have evaluated patients', family members', and healthcare professionals' experiences with multidisciplinary transitional care interventions, which can provide insight into facilitators and barriers to their implementation.

Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Introduction: Incidence of and risk factors for early hospital readmission (EHR) are poorly defined in pediatric liver transplant recipients. Therefore, we evaluated EHR incidence and risk factors for pediatric liver recipients in a nationally representative sample.
Methods: Using the Society of Pediatric Liver Transplantation database, we retrospectively analyzed 2808 pediatric liver-only recipients transplanted 2011-2022.
A comprehensive nurse-led aftercare programme addressing post-burn sexual well-being of adult burn survivors: a randomised controlled trial.
BMC Nurs

Evidence-Based Center for Nursing, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, China.
Background: Sexual well-being is a key part of being human yet often remains shrouded in secrecy and poorly addressed in the clinical setting. The impact of burns and its long-term sequelae often lead to concerns regarding body image disturbance, self-esteem issues, and interpersonal challenges which can impact on an individual's sexual well-being. However, existing post-burn rehabilitation programmes usually lack components addressing concerns regarding sexual well-being.
