Theses and Dissertations

This literature review evaluated suicidal ideation among adolescent and young adults with eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) along with the association of gender, psychological comorbidities, self-injurious behaviors, family systems and cultural implications.

Postpartum Management Of Women With Gestational Diabetes, Brittany R. Tovar Apr 2014

Postpartum Management Of Women With Gestational Diabetes, Brittany R. Tovar

Theses and Dissertations

This case report highlights the importance of postpartum glucose screening, along with diabetes prevention education, for women with history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Gestational diabetes is a strong indicator of future type 2 diabetes. Postpartum screening allows providers opportunity for early detection of abnormal glucose levels in this vulnerable population (Frazzita, Anderson & Egan, 2013). Clinical practice guidelines establish routine postpartum care that include close monitoring of women with GDM. However, screening rates are as low as 33% among providers (Bihan et al., 2014; Hunt, Logan, Conway & Korte, 2010; Kapustin, 2008). The case description depicted in this paper …

Baseline Concussion Screening Of Adolescents During Pre-Participation Exams, Kristi Hillman

Theses and Dissertations

Assessment of post-concussion injury and return to play (RTP) guidance are frequently used skills in the primary care setting.

The case report highlights a 16-year-old female who presented unaccompanied to her primary care provider for athletic clearance following a motor vehicle accident (MV A). The crash resulted in a right sided head injury and grade I concussion. The …

Promoting Parenting Success In Parents With Intellectual Disabilities, Beth S. Juarez

Persons with intellectual disabilities (ID) who choose to become parents typically encounter significant ban·iers and challenges that too often have less to do with parental competency, and more to do with context1ml factors, stereotypes and perceptions, lack of access to support services, social policy and unjust treatment by child welfare systems. These inequities have historically contributed to an increased risk of harm for both parents and children, including preventable separation of families. With support, parents with ID can and do parent successfully and nurses can play an important role in promoting this success. This review of the current literature describes …
