Noise reduction in the ICU: a best practice implementation project
Conclusion: Adherence to best practices regarding noise control was satisfactory, achieving more than 70% compliance in the six audit criteria. Only the noise level did not reach the threshold recommended by the WHO - a difficulty reported in other studies. Relevance to clinical practice: Best practices related to noise control are essential for managing sleep deprivation in ICUs and include changes in the behaviour of involved professionals.

Prevention and management of behavioural and psychological symptoms in patients with dementia in acute care: a best practice implementation project
Conclusion: The project implementation achieved some positive changes. A formalized process for preventing aggression/agitation is in place. The interprofessional collaboration, the support given to the nursing team and the basket of nonpharmacological interventions were strengthened. The electronic documentation and a limited collaboration of the nursing team were challenging. As further strategies were implemented, further audit would be required to assess achievement in change and/or demonstration of improved care provided for this vulnerable population.

The use of mentoring for knowledge translation by allied health: a scoping review
Conclusions: Allied health professionals have used mentoring as a knowledge translation strategy to enhance the use of research evidence in their practice and to learn the process of knowledge translation. Mentoring is mostly used in conjunction with other strategies in practice, such as education. The limited number of identified barriers and facilitators to using mentoring as a knowledge translation strategy supports the need for future research to deepen our understanding about the mentoring process.
