    This article highlights three questions tabled in the House of Commons relating to the Yellow Card Scheme, the system for recording adverse incidents with medicines and medical devices in the UK.

    A heart failure patient has become the first in the UK to be fitted with an early warning sensor the size of a pen lid which gives off an alert if their condition deteriorates. Consultant cardiologists Dr Andrew Flett and Dr Peter Cowburn have pioneered the procedure to fit the FIRE1 System during trials at University Hospital Southampton (UHS), Hampshire. Dr Flett said: “This innovative new device has the potential to improve patient safety and outcomes in the management of patients with chronic heart failure and we are delighted to be the first site in the UK to implant as part of this ground-breaking study".

    This survey for health and care staff looks at how quickly staff are aware of alarms emitted by bedside monitoring equipment in single patient rooms, and their ability to respond. Doors to single patient rooms are often kept shut for long periods of time for reasons of privacy, dignity and (at the moment especially) infection control. With the UK Government targeting a growth in the proportion of NHS hospital rooms which have a single bed, is this a risk to the health and wellbeing of patients? This is not a specific issue where data is collected, so an online survey has been created to gather feedback and opinions.

On the Yellow Card Scheme website you can report a suspected incident or problem.

    This pledge card, produced by the Health Innovation Network, is designed to promote urinary catheter safety and good practice and, in turn, preventing infection. This initiative was part of catheter care awareness week. This pledge card could be used in numerous settings.

    The objective of this review is to contribute to the development of the GMC's policy in this area. Given the GMC’s role as a regulator of individual healthcare professionals (i.e. doctors) this study focuses on the types of requirements and standards applicable to or having implications for healthcare practitioners, rather than the regulation of healthcare providers (e.g. hospitals, surgeries etc.) or healthcare systems as a whole.
