Dabigatran etexilate: An alternative to warfarin for patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsSignificant evidence from the PETRO and RE‐LY trials and postmarketing analyses of dabigatran etexilate indicate that this direct thrombin inhibitor is as efficacious as warfarin in ischemic stroke prevention. In fact, the studies found that patients taking dabigatran etexilate had fewer incidences of ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage than those taking warfarin. Risk for major gastrointestinal bleeding appears to be higher than that for warfarin. Implications for practicePatients taking dabigatran etexilate do not require blood work to assess international normalized ratio (INR) levels. Because this ...

Evaluating a novel approach to enhancing dysphagia management: workplace‐based, blended e‐learning
ConclusionsWorkplace‐based, blended e‐learning was an acceptable, cost effective way of delivering essential clinical knowledge and skills about dysphagia. Relevance to clinical practiceDysphagia should be viewed as a patient safety issue because of the risks of malnutrition, dehydration and aspiration pneumonia. As such, it is pertinent to many members of the interdisciplinary team. Consideration should be given to including dysphagia management in initial education and continuing professional development programmes.

Non-therapeutic intensive care for organ donation: A healthcare professionals' opinion survey.
CONCLUSION: The acceptance by healthcare professionals of non-therapeutic intensive care for brain death organ donation seems fairly good, despite a suboptimal education regarding brain death, non-therapeutic intensive care and families' support. But they ask to require previously expressed patient's consent and family's approval. So, it seems that non-therapeutic intensive care should only remain an ethically sound mean of empowerment of organ donors and their families to make post-mortem donation happen as a full respect of individual autonomy.

Simulation Training in Early Emergency Response (STEER).
This study aimed to test a simulation curriculum based on institutional priorities using high-intensity, short-duration, frequent in situ content delivery based on deliberate practice. The study design was a prospective, single-center, mixed-methods quasi-experimental study. Scenarios used in this study were ventricular fibrillation, opiate-related respiratory depression, syncopal fall, and hemorrhagic stroke. The convenience sample included 41 teams (147 participants). Improvements were noted in initiating chest compressions (p = .018), time to check blood glucose (p = .046), and identification of heparin as a contributor...
