Type 1 diabetes from adolescence to adulthood: is there a permanent need for nutrition education and reeducation?
CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that questions regarding carbohydrate counting may predict glycaemic control. Patients diagnosed in childhood may be more knowledable in diabetes management, but their practical skill in matching insulin dose and carbohydrate content is poor. Both groups improved their knowledge in similar proportion with same educational programme.

Adhesive Considerations for Direct-Skin Wearable Medical Technologies
In addition to caring for the sick, today’s medical providers are also heavily focused on prevention, patient education, and health and wellness strategies. As part of this newer approach to healthcare, providers are implementing ways to deliver additional care options that are both easily accessible and more affordable. Of these, one of the fastest growing and most widely adopted is wearable medical technologies.
Wearable medical technologies not only provide support for care related to acute and chronic medical conditions, but also for disease prevention and lifestyle choices. They can monitor health, remind patients t...

Insulin pump initiation and education for children and adolescents – a qualitative study of current practice in New Zealand
ConclusionsDifferences seen between hospitals reflected team preference, and possibly a lack of consensus/guidance from the medical literature. Lessons may be learnt and further rationalisation and improvement in education remains possible by combining and adopting strengths from different hospitals.

Is Software the & #039;Weak Link & #039; in Medical Device Safety?
Software is a weak link for medical devices, according to Stericycle Expert Solutions' second-quarter recall index. The report found software issues to be the top cause of medical device recalls for the 13th straight quarter .
"As we become increasingly reliant on AI and data collection, software becomes an even bigger vulnerability for patients, physicians, and wrongdoers," said Chris Harvey, director of recall solutions at Stericycle. "If the software that is used to operate a device is inadequate, how can we be sure that it is protected from cybersecurity vulnerabilities? Add to that the fact tha...

Application of beta-blockers in burn management
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2021 Nov 22;35(1):46-50. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2021.2002110. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTSevere burn injuries cause chronic inflammation, which produces a subsequent hypermetabolic response that starts immediately and persists for at least 3 years. The hypermetabolic state, which is thought to be due to postburn elevations of endogenous catecholamines and cortisol, is associated with a number of harmful physiologic derangements including immunosuppression, impaired wound healing, muscle catabolism, and hepatic dysfunction. Beta-blockers have become first line agents for reducing these adverse effect...
