Setting up a device-based treatment for a Parkinson's patient at home is a complex affair. The homecare nurse, an expert in this pathology, coordinates the various professionals working with the patient, and is the privileged contact for the prescribing doctor. Thanks to his or her wide range of skills, he or she can provide invaluable assistance to ensure that the patient's care goes smoothly.

Department of Neurobiology, Care Science and Society (NVS), Division of Occupational Therapy, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: The care of older persons is facing several challenges, especially as care tasks are becoming increasingly rationalized with less opportunity for relational engagement between nurse assistants and older persons. Evidence suggests this engagement is needed to promote well-being and satisfaction among the older persons with whom they work. The aim of this study was to explore how care, in the context of worker perspectives, is understood and experienced in home or residential care facilities.

Background: Medically intractable ascites causes substantial distress in patients with palliative disease. Tunneled peritoneal catheters have been established as a feasible treatment option allowing patient-controlled paracentesis in a homecare setting. However, while a range of complications is associated with these drainages, risk factors for complications have not been identified so far.

BMJ Open

Diabetes Care Unit, Caen University Hospital, Caen cedex 09, France.
Introduction: Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is currently the gold standard for assessing glycaemic control in diabetes, given the established relationship with microvascular and macrovascular complications in this condition. However, HbA1c is affected by non-glycaemic factors, while also failing to provide data on hypoglycaemic exposure and glucose variability, which are associated with adverse vascular outcomes. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived glucose metrics provide a more comprehensive assessment of glycaemia, but their role in predicting future vascular complications remains unclear.
