Management of the Difficult Stoma
Surg Clin North Am. 2024 Jun;104(3):579-593. doi: 10.1016/j.suc.2023.11.008. Epub 2024 Jan 29.ABSTRACTFecal ostomy creation is a commonly performed procedure with many indications.

Strategies that facilitate the delivery of exceptionally good patient care in general practice: a qualitative study with patients and primary care professionals
CONCLUSION: The addition of concrete and contextual strategies to the IDEAL framework has enhanced its practicality and usefulness for supporting improvement in general practices. Now, a multi-level systems approach is needed to embed these strategies and create an environment where excellence is supported. The refined framework should be developed into a learning tool to support teams in general practice to measure, reflect and improve care within their practice.PMID:38678200 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-024-02352-1 (Source: Primary Care)

The short and long-term efficacy of nurse-led interventions for improving blood pressure control in people with hypertension in primary care settings: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Nurse-led interventions may be more effective than usual care for achieving BP control at long-term follow-up. It is important to continue lifestyle modification for people with hypertension. We must pay attention to adverse events, and more studies examining appropriate BP targets are needed. Nurse-led care represents an important complement to primary physician-led usual care.PMID:38678180 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-024-02380-x (Source: Primary Care)

The experiences of family resilience in patients with permanent colostomy and their spouses: A dyadic qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Couples living with permanent colostomy often undergo a complex emotional journey, experiencing varied levels of individual stress as they navigate social interactions and daily activities, which can contribute to a decline in family adaptation. With the help of the perspective of family advantage, health practitioners should pay attention to the evaluation of individual factors and family environmental resources, to fully mobilize advantage resources and give effective interventions to improve the family and social adaptation level of patients and their spouses.PMID:38677217 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejon.2024.102590 (...

Critical Care Outside the Intensive Care Unit
To improve the care of critically ill patients, intensive care units (ICUs) were created in the mid-twentieth century.1,2 ICU care provides a concentration of specialized nursing and physician care, respiratory therapy, specialized medical equipment, and continuous and invasive patient monitoring. Modern ICUs improve survival and reduce hospital lengths of stay.3,4 However, the ICU is a destination, whereas for most patients, critical illness begins well before ICU admission, or even hospital presentation.
