"There has been a resurgence of interest in recent years due to an increase in the number of wound care patients and clinicians looking for safer and effective therapies to treat wounds. One of the largest challenges is coming up with an appropriate regimen that provides complete wound care for each patient including an effective antimicrobial regimen. The goal of treatment should be to help the immune system fight the infection without initiating a chronic wound state. There are many options such as: topical antimicrobials, conventional wound dressings, otozolid, miconazole, fusidic acid and sulfa compounds, and combinations of antibiotics with bioresorbable dressings." - Anonymous Online Contributor
"[About half of patients treated in NHS trusts in Scotland in 2009 reported experiencing at least one side effect from their antipsychotic drug treatment, and about a third reported ≥10 side effects. The high reporting rate may reflect a lack of formal follow-up by [general practitioners (GPs)] or the patient or that the [GPs] do not actively monitor side effects. Clinicians should be proactive in advising patients of the side effects and assisting them in seeking and managing them.] For people with dementia, an earlier review of antipsychotic side effects by a [generalist/dementia and mental health expert (MDT)] is recommended for people taking atypical antipsychotics." - Anonymous Online Contributor
"[This cohort had poorer health-related quality of life scores than a general cohort (HrQOL50)] (p = 0.0023). However, improvement in wound pain during treatment did not necessarily lead to improvement in HrQOL50 (p = 0.0317]. Both pre- and post-treatment wound pain levels were related to improvement in HrQOL50, indicating that it was not related to pain-free healing, but to the actual pain associated with the pain that could not heal without treatment." - Anonymous Online Contributor
"Early postoperative drainage of exudate should be performed and antibiotic prophylaxis should be initiated. A multimodal therapy is recommended as a first-line treatment for metastatic breast cancer patients from a European randomised clinical trial. Treatments including chemotherapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy, and surgery must be evaluated in prospective randomized trials in patients with resectable metastatic breast cancer in the metastatic setting." - Anonymous Online Contributor
"Clinicians are unlikely to be the first group to undertake a clinical trial for a chronic wound and they are likely to have low motivation to do so. They may be concerned that clinical trial results will have a limited impact on their care of a chronically wounded patient. Findings from a recent study provide a justification for conducting and evaluating small (20-40 participants) or cluster randomised trials to test the efficacy of wound healing interventions." - Anonymous Online Contributor
"While there are still a limited number of RCTs testing out the effectiveness of acupuncture, there are four relevant RCTs found in the literature. In this review, the efficacy of acupuncture in alleviating pain associated with both simple and complex acute and chronic musculoskeletal pathology was demonstrated. However, while most studies have shown acupuncture to be more effective than a placebo, there was not a consensus among the studies that acupuncture was more effective than a placebo. Moreover, the conclusions of these studies could not be drawn with certainty due to flaws in each study. There is a need for further, well-designed RCTs to further investigate the effectiveness of acupuncture." - Anonymous Online Contributor
