The article tests the hypothesis that we can draw practical knowledge from the experience of service providers operating in the past. The research questions were formulated: can the historical example of the organization of medical care in the Polish Children's Hospital named after Karol and Maria be used as a viable example today? Is it relevant for contemporary practitioners? And do we still use the knowledge of predecessors? The authors decided to use the interwar Hospital and an operating paediatric ward of the Child-Friendly Hospital for a comparative analysis. ⋯ It seems that while the technical aspects of integrated care initiated in the past are developing perfectly, the approach to the evidence-based medicine is waiting to be developed again.

Developing a feasible and sensitive evaluation strategy for a new mental health service is a challenge that requires consideration of what a service is trying to achieve and what a 'good' outcome might look like. Perinatal mental illnesses are complex in their causes and treatment. Mother Baby Units provide specialist perinatal mental health care to parents experiencing mental illness in the perinatal period, with evaluations demonstrating clinical and social outcomes. There has however been remarkably little research on how MBUs achieve these outcomes. ⋯ Articulating the approach to evaluation provides a contribution to evaluation knowledge for others evaluating complex public health interventions. The relational nature of perinatal mental health experiences challenges individualistic approaches to care delivery, funding and evaluation. As part of service establishment, there is a need to consider what a 'good' outcome of care might be and to develop evaluation approaches that capture the relational components of recovery as well as the factors that support families to sustain change.

To assess and evaluate consumer awareness and common medication use practices towards OTC analgesics, with a focus on the impact of irrational drug use and its implications for public health and safety. This includes identifying gaps in knowledge, evaluating the potential consequences of misuse, and discussing how these findings can inform future educational initiatives and policy development to promote safer medication practices. ⋯ Our study highlights the menace of self-medication practices and irrational use of OTC analgesic by the study participants. Immediate remedial measure need to be taken to discourage self-medication and improve rational use of OTC drugs which can be achieved by focusing on improving the consumers' awareness of self-medication and the rational use of medications.
