Understanding how language barriers in the paediatric emergency care setting influences safety of care delivery: a scoping review.

BACKGROUND: Communication in a family's primary language can support safe care. Vital steps within the care delivery process are contingent on successful communication, including reporting symptoms, clinical decision-making, informed consent, discharge communication and follow-up coordination. The importance of effective information exchange is particularly pronounced in paediatric emergency care,...

Development and evaluation of an ontology for non-invasive respiratory support in acute care.

Managing patients with respiratory failure increasingly involves non-invasive respiratory support (NIRS) strategies to support respiration, often preventing the need for invasive mechanical ventilation. However, despite the rapidly expanding use of NIRS, there remains a significant challenge to its optimal use across all medical circumstances. It lacks a unified ontological structure, complicating...
