Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

The critical need for students to learn to be effective members of interprofessional teams in preparation for collaborative practice-ready care provision now and in the future has been well documented1. There are increasing opportunities for students to observe interprofessional events to assist them in doing so, but often their role is passive and the teams may not demonstrate the highest level of patient-centered care, minimizing the student learning.

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

A recent review of pre-qualifying interprofessional education in the UK reported the practical challenges of synchronising interprofessional education1. Whilst it was noted that online interprofessional courses were developed primarily to overcome timetabling conflicts of students and clinicians from various health professions, it was recognised that a blended learning approach with appropriate student support could enable an effective interprofessional education experience with lower running costs and reduced disruption. It was found, however, that despite the ubiquity of e-learning in interprofessional education there seemed to be less sharing than expected1.

Ipe Grand Rounds: A Student-Led Initiative, Claire Sokas, Chelsea Gorman

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

Interprofessional Education (IPE) Grand Rounds is an innovative student-run initiative designed specifically to increase the clinical relevance of IPE for all health professions students. By creating new opportunities for students from medicine, nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, couple and family therapy, physician assistant and pharmacy to interact with health professionals who are actively participating in interprofessional work environments, the IPE Grand Rounds program allows students to develop a more complete picture of what it means to be a member of a collaborative practice team. During these sessions, students and panelists discuss both the benefits of working with team members from …

Successful Implementation Of The Abcdef Bundle In The Micu Through Interprofessional Collaboration And Teamwork, Julie Rogan, Rn, Msn, Accns-Ag, Aocns, Ccrn, Steven W. Gudowski, Rrt, Cara Mcdaniel, Pharmd, Bcps

Collaborative Healthcare: Interprofessional Practice, Education and Evaluation (JCIPE)

Earlier this year, members of the medical intensive care unit (MICU) attended an interprofessional workshop that utilized Awakening/Breathing/Choice of Sedation/Delirium/Early Mobility (ABCDE) bundle simulation combined with TeamSTEPPS training to empower care givers to advocate for patient safety while optimizing patient care. The ABCDE bundle is an evidence-based tool designed to implement pain, agitation, and delirium guideline recommendations into routine practice. To further improve patient safety and outcomes and build upon the ABCDE concept, the MICU team developed an interprofession-al practice project by adding routine assessment of need for indwelling Foley catheters to their daily work list, creating the “ABCDEF” bundle.

Screen Time Overtime: Should A “Screen Time Diet” Be Part Of Healthy Everyday Activities And Routines For Families And Their Young Children?, Sarah Jamieson, Ots, Mary Muhlenhaupt, Otd, Otr/L, Faota

Department of Occupational Therapy Posters and Presentations

Introduction:

Though television is still the primary form of media for children, almost one-third of TV programming is accessed through smart phones, tablets, and computers (Strasburger et al., 2013).

•Families do not adhere to AAP’s guidelines (Brown, 2011)

•Research suggests detrimental effect on young children

OT’s are an integral resource to help families design healthy recreational “screen time diets.”

Bcl2 Expression And Bcl2/Myc Dual Expression Predicts Inferior Survival In Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma, Guldeep Uppal, Md, Zi-Xuan (Zoe) Wang, Phd, Renu Bajaj, Phd, Mark T.

Background

Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare type of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) arising from and usually confined to CNS. Understating of the pathogenesis and prognostic markers is a challenge due to rarity of this neoplasm and paucity of the material available to study. Recent studies have shown that dual expression of MYC and BCL2 in DLBCL contributes to inferior overall survival. The prognostic value of MYC and BCL2 in PCNSL is not well studied.

_{The Problem}

_{With the goals of improving patient safety and resident well-being, the ACGME’s 2011 revision of duty-hour requirements included a 16-hour limit on continuous duty hours for postgraduate year 1 (PGY-1) trainees, increased supervision for junior trainees, as well as mandated rest periods between duty hours.1 These rules place limitations on the ability of trainees to attend scheduled educational activities during standard work hours; a recent study showed a decrease in resident availability for teaching conferences compared with the 2003 duty hour regulations.2 Residency training programs must develop alternative avenues for education and encouraging inquiry outside of traditional …}

Using Accreditation Standards As A Framework To Evaluate And Improve A Community-Based Diabetes Self-Management Education Program., Neva White, Mary Lou Manning, Rickie Brawer, James Plumb

Department of Nursing papers and presentations

Diabetes self-management education is an essential component of diabetes clinical management, and community-based programs are an effective intervention for improving glycemic control among adults living with diabetes. The National Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support are designed to define quality diabetes self-management education and support, and to assist diabetes educators to provide evidence-based education and self-management support. These standards are used in the field for recognition and accreditation. This article presents the results of a program evaluation conducted by the Center for Urban Health at the Thomas Jefferson University and Hospital, examines the outcomes of the community-based diabetes self-management …

Characteristics Of Acute Care Utilization Of A Delaware Adult Sickle Cell Disease Patient Population., Nina Anderson, Jennifer L. Bellot, Oluseyi Senu-Oke, Samir K. Ballas

Department of Nursing papers and presentations

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood disorder that is chronic in nature and manifests itself through many facets of the patient's life. Comprehensive specialty centers have the potential to reduce health care costs and improve the quality of care for patients who have chronic medical conditions such as heart failure and SCD. The purpose of this practice inquiry was to analyze de-identified data for acute care episodes involving SCD in order to create a detailed picture of acute care utilization for adult patients in Delaware with SCD from 2007 to 2009. Gaining a better understanding of acute care …

Primary Stroke In A Woman With Sickle Cell Anemia Responsive To Hydroxyurea Therapy., Samir K. Ballas, Ubaldo E. Martinez-Outshoorn, Michael P. Savage

Cardeza Foundation for Hematologic Research

The most common cause of stroke in children with sickle cell anemia is infarction due to ischemia. In adults, however, stroke is most commonly hemorrhagic in nature. Other causes of stroke in patients with sickle cell disease are very rare. In this short communication, we describe a woman with sickle cell anemia responsive to hydroxyurea (HU) therapy who had primary stroke due to paradoxical embolization caused by a large atrial septal defect. Successful management of the stroke included surgical closure of the defect with trans-esophageal echocardiographic guidance. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first patient with sickle …
