Patient safety is a global challenge in healthcare, with adverse events representing a significant concern. The integration of patient safety education in undergraduate curricula is crucial in developing a culture of safety and safe practices among future professionals. However, there is a gap in research assessing the levels of knowledge and attitudes about patient safety among undergraduate students in healthcare using validated instruments. This scoping review aims to map the levels of knowledge and attitudes about patient safety among students in healthcare courses, allowing for national and international comparisons. The review will follow the methodological frameworks proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) for scoping reviews. The search will include published and unpublished studies in six databases, with no date or language restrictions. This scoping review was prospectively registered with the Open Science Framework on 17 July 2024. This scoping review will provide a comprehensive overview of knowledge and attitudes about patient safety among undergraduate students in healthcare, identifying gaps in patient safety education and areas for improvement in curricula. The results may guide teachers in creating teaching strategies to prepare future healthcare professionals, reducing knowledge gaps and improving the quality of care.

Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) are a cornerstone of modern health care delivery, but their current configuration often fragments information across systems, impeding timely and effective clinical decision-making. In gynecological oncology, where care involves complex, multidisciplinary coordination, these limitations can significantly impact the quality and efficiency of patient management. Few studies have examined how EHR systems support clinical decision-making from the perspective of end users.

Background: Hospital falls represent a persistent and significant threat to safety within health care systems worldwide, impacting both patient well-being and the occupational health of health care staff. While patient falls are a primary concern, addressing fall risks for all individuals within the health care environment remains a key objective. Caregiver visibility and spatial monitoring are recognized as crucial considerations in mitigating fall-related incidents.

Purpose: To assess modified folinic acid/leucovorin, fluorouracil, irinotecan, oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX; mFFX) versus gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GnP) in de novo metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and explore predictive biomarkers.
Patients And Methods: Patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to mFFX or GnP with exclusion of germline pathogenic variants in or . The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) between arms with 0.

Topic: The aim of this study was to assess the meta-analysis of the studies comparing transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) to classical photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) (mechanical or alcohol-assisted).
Clinical Relevance: While PRK is a well-established procedure, TransPRK, a newer, minimally invasive technique may reduce surgery time and improve patient outcomes. Comparing these techniques helps optimize surgical choices.
