AbstractRobotic technology applied to laparoscopy augments the armamentarium of the reproductive specialist. Uterine leiomyomas, adenomyosis, endometriosis, adnexal masses, sterilization reversal, and fertility preservation techniques can all be addressed with a robotic surgery skill set. Additionally, new approaches with single site and natural orifice surgery will continue to maximize advanced opportunities for safe, effective, and cosmetically conscious (patient-centered) approaches to surgical care. Enhanced postoperative recovery pathways are fully adaptable to these robotic procedures and improve patient acceptability while controlling costs.

Heart failure (HF) is a complex disease to manage, and treatment strategies for older adults are complicated by the presence of comorbidities such as urinary incontinence (UI). There is a therapeutic competition that exists in the treatment of patients with both HF and UI, as many of the agents indicated for control of HF may directly exacerbate UI. A reported 80% of adults with HF are older than 65 years of age, and 50% of HF patients have UI. The prevalence of conflicting therapeutic objectives in older patients presents an opportunity for intervention by senior care pharmacists. Pharmacists are equipped to optimize medication outcomes through the provision of appropriate prescribing and deprescribing recommendations, when necessary. This provides an opportunity for shared decision making to improve patient-centered outcomes and goals of care within this population.

AbstractGlobally, medical errors are associated with an estimated $42 billion in costs to healthcare systems. A variety of errors in the delivery of healthcare have been identified by the World Health Organization and it is believed that about 50% of all errors are preventable. Initiatives to improve patient safety are now garnering increased attention across a range of countries in all regions of the world. From June 28--29, 2019, the first International Patient Safety Conference (IPSC) was held in Kathmandu, Nepal and attended by over 200 healthcare professionals as well as hospital, government, and non-governmental organization leaders. During the conference, presentations describing the experience with errors in healthcare and solutions to minimize future occurrence of adverse events were presented. Examples of systems implemented to prevent future errors in patient care were also described. A key outcome of this conference was the initiation of conversations and communication among important stakeholders for patient safety. In addition, attendees and dignitaries in attendance all reaffirmed their commitment to furthering actions in hospitals and other healthcare facilities that focus on reducing the risk of harm to patients who receive care in the Nepali healthcare system. This conference provides an important springboard for the development of patient-centered strategies to improve patient safety across a range of patient care environments in public and private sector healthcare institutions.

This perspectives paper discusses patient-centered care for people living with motor neuron disease. We identify challenges and offer solutions from the patient-centered care literature for this population in frontline care, service delivery, research and health system organization. Examples from Australian and international motor neuron disease care are used to illustrate interrelated issues for practice and policy.
