    Abstract Background: There are 3 pillars upon which the foundation of a teaching program in health care is founded: research, education, and clinical care. However, in a busy academic trauma practice, the unfortunate reality is that research is often a low priority in the frenzy of mandates for clinical productivity.
    Objective: The purpose of this report is to advise hospitals on how to create a modest trauma research program that supports research interests without significantly impacting the overall clinical productivity of the department.
    Methods: Relevant literature related to the development of an academic trauma research department was reviewed. Relevant articles were then compared to this manuscript to assess the novelty of the topic.
    Results: There are 4 essential components of a trauma research program: (1) a zealot, (2) institutional commitment and support, (3) a statistician, and (4) registry data access.
    Conclusion: The creation of a trauma research program may seem like a herculean effort, but this work is necessary for institutions hoping to achieve status as a Level I/II trauma center. Following the steps outlined in this report, trauma providers can create a robust research program at their institution without sacrificing clinical productivity.

    Abstract A novel electrochemical cell design in a vertically stacked configuration is presented. Through a layered structure using a top macroporous working electrode, a polyelectrolyte, and a bottom metallic conductor a standalone electrochemical cell with an internal reference electrode is built. This sensor allows monitoring an electrochemical property of an external solution with only one electrode in direct contact with the sample. Using paper-based platinum electrode for the porous top electrode and Nafion as polyelectrolyte material, the self-powered detection of hydrogen peroxide is performed. The system can be operated in multiple modes. In a capacitive way, the open circuit potential is measured. Alternatively, in a self-powered current mode, the system emulates a fuel cell. Additionally, a potential-current switched mode is also demonstrated. Because of this unique design and operational features this sensor is considered as an electrochemical pixel. To further demonstrate the advantages of this device, the detection of glucose is performed by building an array of sensors using a single back (reference) electrode and multiple working electrodes. These results lay the groundwork for the development of a new generation of simple and low cost biochemical sensors and electrochemical sensing arrays.

    Abstract Les personnes âgées atteintes de troubles neurocognitifs (démences) vivant en centre d'hébergement adoptent fréquemment des comportements réactifs qui limitent leur engagement dans des occupations. La présente étude vise à identifier des moyens d'intervention centrés sur l'engagement des personnes âgées ayant un trouble neurocognitif avec l'environnement humain et non humain en centre d'hébergement afin de diminuer leurs comportements réactifs, en particulier les comportements d'errance, d'apathie et d'agitation. Cette revue de la portée est basée sur la méthode proposée par Levac et ses collaborateurs (2010). Parmi les 21 études retenues, la plupart s'intéressent à des interventions ciblant l'environnement non humain (n=9) ou ciblant simultanément l'environnement humain et non humain (n=9). Plusieurs de ces interventions sont efficaces pour diminuer les comportements réactifs et permettent aux personnes âgées de s'engager avec leur environnement. Le support de l'environnement humain semble toutefois nécessaire à l'utilisation optimale de plusieurs interventions.

    Abstract Objective: The benefits of organized trauma systems have been well-documented during 50 years of trauma system development in the United States. Unfortunately, despite this evidence, trauma system development has occurred only sporadically in the 50 states.
    Methods: The relevant literature related to trauma system design and development was reviewed based on relevance to the study. Information from these sources was summarized into a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis.
    Results: Strengths discovered were leadership brought forth by the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma and meaningful change generated from The National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report addressing the fractionation of the nation's trauma systems, whereas weaknesses included patient outcome disparities due to the lack of a national governing authority, undertriage, underresourced rural trauma, and underfunded trauma research. Opportunities included the creation of level IV trauma centers; telemedicine; the development of rural trauma management courses; air medical transport to bring high-intensity care to the patient, particularly in rural areas; trauma research; and trauma prevention through outreach and educational programs. The following threats were determined: mass casualty incidents, motor vehicle collisions because of the high rate of motor vehicle collision deaths in the United States relative to other developed countries, and underfunded trauma systems.
    Conclusion: Much work remains to be done in the development of an American trauma system. Recommendations include implementation of trauma care governance at the federal level; national oversight and support of emergency medical services systems, particularly in rural areas with strict reporting processes for emergency medical services programs; national organization of our mass casualty response; increased federal and state funding allocated to trauma centers; a consistent model for trauma system development; and trauma research.

    Abstract The role of hydrogen peroxide in a wide range of biological processes has led to a steady increase in research into hydrogen peroxide determination in recent years, and conducting polymers have attracted much interest in electrochemistry as promising materials in this area. We present an overview of electrochemical devices for hydrogen peroxide determination using conducting polymers, either as a target or as a byproduct of redox reactions. We describe different combinations of electrode modifications through the incorporation of conducting polymers as the main component along with other materials or nanomaterials. We critically compare the analytical performances cited and highlight some of the future challenges for the feasible application of such devices.

    Abstract Achieving the full potential of magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs) is still a challenge due to the lack of adequate electrodes or electrolytes. Grignard-based electrolytes show excellent Mg plating/stripping, but their incompatibility with oxide cathodes restricts their use.
