Transvenous lead extraction is performed for device infection, lead failure, or to provide access for additional leads/device upgrade. A patient-centered risk assessment for transvenous lead extraction can be determined using a combination of clinical factors and several imaging modalities. Predicting a complex lead extraction, for example, one that will require powered tools or the use of a femoral approach, is aided by pre-procedural imaging and clinical assessment. Procedural imaging utilizing fluoroscopy, transesophageal echocardiography, and intracardiac echocardiography during an extraction can improve safety and identify complications rapidly.

Background The increasing workload of radiologists can lead to burnout and errors in radiology reports. Large language models, such as OpenAI's GPT-4, hold promise as error revision tools for radiology. Purpose To test the feasibility of GPT-4 use by determining its error detection, reasoning, and revision performance on head CT reports with varying error types and to validate its clinical utility by comparison with human readers.

Background: Errors in veterinary clinical settings can lead to patient harm. Morbidity and mortality meetings (M&Ms) are forums to discuss errors and incidents that can lead or have led to adverse outcomes, potential harm or unsafe conditions, with the purpose of improving patient safety in future. Despite growing implementation of M&Ms in veterinary medicine, their effectiveness in improving future patient safety may be constrained by the need for absolute confidentiality during meetings.

Background: Globally, haemodialysis is the most frequent type of kidney replacement therapy and necessitates access to the bloodstream either through a native arteriovenous fistula, arteriovenous graft or central venous catheter. Vascular access complications are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in adults receiving haemodialysis, and effective vascular access self-management is required.
Objective: To examine the effectiveness of educational or behavioural interventions designed to improve self-management of long-term vascular access in adults receiving haemodialysis.
