Increased lumbar puncture success using a paramedian approach: A retrospective cohort study
Abstract Background Lumbar puncture (LP) is frequently necessary in hospitalized patients for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Traditional landmark identification by palpation of the lumbar spine and pelvis can see significant failure rates. A paramedian approach is an accepted, though less frequently used technique associated with higher success ...

Deep Vein Thrombosis in Critically Ill Patients With COVID‐19 Pneumonia
Objectives The risk of major venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients with COVID‐19 is high but varies with disease severity. Estimate the incidence of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in critically ill hospitalized patients with COVID‐19, validate the Wells score for DVT diagnosis, and determine patients' prognosis.

Improved Paediatric Procedural Competence and Knowledge After Training Using a Newborn Piglet Model
ABSTRACT Aim Training complex paediatric procedural skills is essential for patient safety. Clinical learning opportunities are rare, and a live model offers realistic tissue with a dynamic physiology. We aimed to develop and evaluate a procedural skills course using a newborn piglet model for trainees in paediatrics.
