Efficacy Of Post-Discharge Interventions On Preventing Hospital Readmissions In Stroke Patients, Monica R. Vickery

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

More than 795,000 people in the United States have a stroke every year. Some 610,000 of them are first or new strokes, and 185,000 of these are recurrent strokes (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016). Studies show that anywhere from 17.4% to 66% of patients discharged from a healthcare facility following an acute stroke are readmitted within 30 days (Zhong et al., 2016; Lahiri et al., 2015; Strowd et al., 2015; Bjerkreim, Thomassen, Waje-Andreassen, Selvik, & Naess, 2016; Burke, Skolarus, Adelman, Reeves, & Brown, 2014; Kilkenny, Longworth, Pollack, Levi, & Cadilhac, 2013; Lichtman, Leifheit-Limson, Jones, Wang, & Goldstein, 2012; …

Liberal Cynicism, Its Dangers, And A Cure, William H. Barnes

Philosophy ETDs

Extreme Liberal Cynicism is a product of mourning, guilt, and the experience of powerlessness stemming from the trauma of holding liberal investments in a world in which they rarely flourish, in which they are perceived to have failed, and in which they are vulnerable to ideology critique. Consequently, the cynic is torn between liberal ideals and the obstacles to their success. This can compel the Liberal Cynic to extremes, fantasizing invulnerability through disavowing the efficacy of its constitutive ideals. This is achieved via a reified hopelessness which eclipses trauma, guilt, and disempowerment. Despite serving an immediately ameliorative purpose this leaves …

Using Safety Checklists Outside Of The Operating Room, Annabelle Gerhardt

Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Projects

Abstract

The use of a Time Out checklist for patient safety in non-operating room procedural areas is equally important for positive patient outcomes as in the operating room (OR). In this busy southwestern United States hospital, the procedural teams in the non-operating room areas were reported to not be fully engaged during the performance of the Time Out pre-procedural pause prior to gastroenterological (GI) procedures. This study was conducted to improve compliance with the scripted Time Out checklist and promote full engagement of the GI procedural team during the Time Out thus reducing risks of wrong site surgery. Literature has …

Physical And Chemical Interactions Affecting U And V Transport From Mine Wastes, Sumant Avasarala

Civil Engineering ETDs

This research investigates the physical and chemical interactions that affect the transport of uranium (U) and vanadium (V) from uranium mine waste sites by integrating laboratory experiments and reactive transport modelling with various spectroscopy, microscopy, and diffraction techniques. The document consists of results from three related studies. In the first study (Chapter 3), the reactive transport of U and V was investigated by sequentially reacting mine wastes collected from Blue Gap/Tachee Claim-28 mine site, AZ with 10mM NaHCO₃ (7.9) and 10mM CH₃COOH (3.4) during continuous flow through column experiments. Under both of these conditions (pH 3.4 and …

The Long-Term Effect Of Erythropoiesis Stimulating Agents Given To Preterm Infants: A Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Study On Neurometabolites In Early Childhood, Charles Gasparovic, Arvind Caprihan, Ronald A Yeo, John Phillips, Jean R Lowe, Richard Campbell, Robin K Ohls

Pediatrics Research and Scholarship

BACKGROUND: Erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) are neuroprotective in cell and animal models of preterm birth. Prematurity has been shown to alter neurometabolite levels in children in studies using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS).

OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that ESA treatment in premature infants would tend to normalize neurometabolites by 4-6 years of age.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Children in a longitudinal study of neurodevelopment underwent MRI and 1H-MRS at approximately 4 years and 6 years of age. Prematurely born children (500-1,250 g birth weight) received ESAs (erythropoietin or darbepoetin) or placebo during their neonatal hospitalization, and these groups were compared to healthy …

Characterization Of Wellbore Microannuli, Serafin Garcia Fernandez

Civil Engineering ETDs

Wellbore integrity is a principal concern for the safe and efficient underground storage of hydrocarbons, disposal of various wastes and in oil and gas production. Poor wellbore integrity can lead to leakage and loss of extracted or stored material, and the potential for contamination of groundwater. The microannuli, which is the space between the steel casing and the cement sheath has been identified as a common and critical leakage pathway. There are no data of the actual size or character of microannuli; however, it is possible to estimate the hydraulic aperture of the microannulus from flow measurements at the wellhead. …
