- Evaluating Real-Time Pressure-Sensing Monitoring Added to Standard Intraoperative Pressure Injury Prevention in High-Risk Surgical Patients: A Prospective Non-Randomised Comparative Study. [Journal Article]Int J Nurs Pract. 2026 Oct; 32(5):e70185.IJ
- CONCLUSIONS: Real-time pressure-sensing monitoring, when added to standard preventive care, was associated with improved selected secondary outcomes but did not reduce pressure injury incidence and was associated with a higher injury frequency in this cohort. These findings should be interpreted cautiously given the non-randomised design and baseline differences between groups.

- The Effectiveness of Animal-Assisted Interventions for People Living With Dementia: An Overview of Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. [Review]
- CONCLUSIONS: There is moderate evidence that AAI has positive effects on depression for people living with dementia. Despite searches, no sufficient evidence has been found to substantiate the positive effects of AAI on other outcomes in people living with dementia. Due to the small number of studies, small sample sizes and significant heterogeneity, more randomised controlled trials with large samples are needed.
