Article Abstract
Background: There is currently very limited data related to transition services for movement disorders.
Objectives: Movement Disorders Society (MDS) Task Force on Pediatrics conducted a survey of current provision of transition for young adults with movement disorders.
Methods: The survey questionnaire was based on review of available evidence, with questions designed to capture service location, transition clinic structure, and core issues discussed. The questionnaire was digitalized as an online survey and sent to all members of the MDS.
Results: Responses were received from a total of 252 MDS members representing 67 countries. Of the responders, 59% confirmed that they provided transition clinics for adolescents with movement disorders. Overall, there was some consensus regarding transition services in terms of patient age at transition, movement disorder etiologies, staffing the service, and medical/social issues discussed.
Conclusion: This survey provides first-hand data of existing movement disorder transition services and provides useful insights on transition clinics.

Peripheral parenteral nutrition use outside of a dedicated nutrition support service: A descriptive cohort study.
JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr

Department of Gastroenterology, Austin Health, Heidelberg, Victoria, Australia.
Background: Hospitalized patients may require nutrition support because of inadequate intake or impaired gut function. Enteral nutrition is preferred over parenteral nutrition because of fewer complications and earlier return of gut function. This study describes peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) use in an Australian tertiary center, evaluating its indications, incidence of adverse effects, and outcomes without the support of a nutrition support service.

Solventum, Maplewood, MN, USA.
Background: Initially limited to inpatient use, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is now frequently used in community settings. However, complexities in wound management step-down strategies in the United Kingdom, including regional variations in referral processes, lack of consensus on funding criteria, and limited availability of NPWT units, have led to extended hospital length of stay (LOS) for patients ready for discharge but still needing NPWT. Single-use NPWT (sNPWT) can serve as a bridge between hospital and community NPWT.

Background: As populations age, informal caregivers play an increasingly vital role in long-term care, with 80% of care provided by family members in Europe. However, many individuals do not immediately recognize themselves as caregivers, especially in the early stages. This lack of awareness can increase physical and emotional stress and delay access to support services.
