Patients are set to have their registrations automatically transferred
Patients at a Nottingham GP practice are set to have their registrations automatically transferred as part of an imminent takeover. Services at Riverlyn Medical Centre in Bulwell will be taken on by nearby Leen View Surgery following the retirement of two partners.
Patients will be automatically transferred across to the practice by the start of December, when it will be known as Leen View Surgery, Riverlyn Site. However, patients can register with another nearby GP if they wish. Riverlyn's location in Station Road and phone number will remain the same. The partners at Leen View Surgery joined the Riverlyn Medical Centre contract in April and have continued to provide services following the retirement of both Dr Arun Tangri and Dr Charu Tangri.They have now decided to merge the NHS contracts. In an update for patients, NHS Nottingham said it was likely they would be seen by new members of staff.
"You will still see some of the same practice staff that you currently do, but it is also likely that you will be seen by new members of staff," it stated. "Your medical records will be automatically transferred over to Leen View Surgery to support your on-going healthcare." Elsewhere in Bulwell, around 3,000 patients were moved from Springfield Medical Centre to the close by St Albans & Nirmala in April this year after the practice shut. Both Riverlyn Medical Centre and Leen View Surgery have patient approval ratings of around 60 percent.

Extracorporeal versus conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation for refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: a secondary analysis of the Prague OHCA trial - Critical CareBackground Survival rates in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remain low with conventional advanced cardiac life support (ACLS). Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) implantation during ongoing resuscitation, a method called extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), may increase survival. This study examined whether ECPR is associated with improved outcomes. Methods Prague OHCA trial enrolled adults with a witnessed refractory OHCA of presumed cardiac origin. In this secondary analysis, the effect of ECPR on 180-day survival using Kaplan–Meier estimates and Cox proportional hazard model was examined. Results Among 256 patients (median age 58 years, 83% male) with median duration of resuscitation 52.5 min (36.5–68), 83 (32%) patients achieved prehospital ROSC during ongoing conventional ACLS prehospitally, 81 (32%) patients did not achieve prehospital ROSC with prolonged conventional ACLS, and 92 (36%) patients did not achieve prehospital ROSC and received ECPR. The overall 180-day survival was 51/83 (61.5%) in patients with prehospital ROSC, 1/81 (1.2%) in patients without prehospital ROSC treated with conventional ACLS and 22/92 (23.9%) in patients without prehospital ROSC treated with ECPR (log-rank p | 0.001). After adjustment for covariates (age, sex, initial rhythm, prehospital ROSC status, time of emergency medical service arrival, resuscitation time, place of cardiac arrest, percutaneous coronary intervention status), ECPR was associated with a lower risk of 180-day death (HR 0.21, 95% CI 0.14–0.31; P | 0.001). Conclusions In this secondary analysis of the randomized refractory OHCA trial, ECPR was associated with improved 180-day survival in patients without prehospital ROSC. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01511666, Registered 19 January 2012.
