Effect of a lubricating jelly paste on swallowing pills in patients with subjective swallowing difficulty: a pilot randomised controlled trial

Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pill‐swallowing difficulty is common yet under‐recognised, and patients rarely seek or receive support from healthcare professionals. Lubricating jelly pastes are widely available in Japan, yet evidence for their effectiveness in pill administration remains limited. The PILL‐5 enables validated, self‐reported screening of clinically

Construction and Evaluation of a Ballistic Gelatin‐Based Simulator for Transcervical Chorionic Villus Sampling

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a crucial prenatal diagnostic tool, but a declining number of procedures makes training a challenge. Here we describe a transcervical CVS simulator made from ballistic gelatin. Ninety‐three Maternal‐Fetal Medicine providers used the simulators during hands‐on workshops and completed surveys regarding their fidelity ...
