Multiple States Of Nitrile Hydratase From Rhodococcus Equi Tg328-2: Structural And Mechanistic Insights From Electron Paramagnetic Resonance And Density Functional Theory Studies, Natalia Stein, Natalie Gumataotao, Natalia Hajnas, Rui Wu, Karunagala Pathiranage Wasantha Lankathilaka, Uwe Bornscheuer, Dali Liu, Adam T. Fiedler, Richard C. Holz, Brian Bennett

Physics Faculty Research and Publications

Iron-type nitrile hydratases (NHases) contain an Fe(III) ion coordinated in a characteristic “claw setting” by an axial cysteine thiolate, two equatorial peptide nitrogens, the sulfur atoms of equatorial cysteine-sulfenic and cysteine-sulfinic acids, and an axial water/hydroxyl moiety. The cysteine-sulfenic acid is susceptible to oxidation, and the enzyme is traditionally prepared using butyric acid as an oxidative protectant. The as-prepared enzyme exhibits a complex electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum due to multiple low-spin (S = ¹/₂) Fe(III) species. Four distinct signals can be assigned to the resting active state, the active state bound to butyric acid, an …

Patterns Of New Physical Problems Emerging In Long-Term Care Residents With Dementia, Christine R. Kovach, Julie L. Ellis, Crystal-Rae Walton

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Individuals receiving skilled nursing care have multiple comorbid conditions that impact comfort and resource use. The current study describes variations in the trajectories of new physical problems emerging over 8 weeks and the predictive value for future health and behavior in a sample of 72 residents with dementia. Residents had two to 37 new physical problems occurring over 8 weeks. Sixty-five percent of the sample had five or more new problems and were identified by three unstable trajectories. Common problems, illnesses, and symptoms accounted for 28.2% of the variance in subsequent new physical problems (p < 0.001) and 25.7% of the variance in subsequent agitation (p < 0.001). This study found more new problems than earlier studies that only examined new acute illness. Findings suggest a higher intensity of need for skilled assessment and treatment than may be available in many long-term care organizations.

Development And Psychometric Evaluation Of The Nurses Professional Values Scale-3, Darlene Weis, Mary Jane Schank

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Background and Purpose: The Nurses Professional Values Scale-3 (NPVS-3) is an instrument derived from the American Nurses Association Code designed to measure nurses' professional values. The purpose of this study was to examine its psychometric properties. Methods: A random sample of 1,139 baccalaureate nursing students, graduate nursing students, and practicing nurses participated. The 28-item Likert-scale instrument was subjected to exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Principal components analysis with varimax rotation and Kaiser normalization resulted in a 3-factor solution. Results: Findings supported internal consistency reliability of 3 factors with alpha coefficients from .80 to .91 and total scale coefficient of .94. …

Answering Wicked Questions: Dealing With Opposing Truths As A Nursing Associate Professor, Robert V. Topp, Patricia E. Hershberger, Marilyn Bratt

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Nursing associate professors frequently are confronted with increasing responsibilities and fewer resources. These challenges commonly contribute to declines in job satisfaction and may result in departing academe. This article addresses these challenges by providing answers to four common “wicked questions” experienced by nursing associate professors: (a) How do I decline a request from a supervisor to take on additional responsibilities while continuing to support the mission of the school and advance my own scholarly productivity? (b) How do I handle the workload of multiple doctoral students with a variety of content areas that are different from my own and maintain …

Cesarean Deliveries And Maternal Weight Retention, Kandice A. Kapinos, Olga Yakusheva, Marianne E. Weiss

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Background

Cesarean delivery accounts for nearly one-third of all births in the U.S. and contributes to an additional $38 billion in healthcare costs each year. Although Cesarean delivery has a long record of improving maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity, increased utilization over time has yielded public health concerns and calls for reductions. Observational evidence suggests Cesarean delivery is associated with increased maternal postpartum weight, which may have significant implications for the obesity epidemic. Previous literature, however, typically does not address selection biases stemming from correlations of pre-pregnancy weight and reproductive health with Cesarean delivery.

Methods

We used fetal malpresentation …

Addressing Traumatic Stress In The Acute Traumatically Injured Patient, Claire Frank, Kathryn Schroeter, Chris Shaw

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Psychological injuries after an acute traumatic event are commonly overlooked. Currently within United States, there is no consistently utilized screening process that addresses traumatic stress within the acute trauma population. Roy's Adaptation Model guided this project, focusing on the idea that bedside nurses are at the frontline of providing early identification through nursing assessment. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate whether the implementation of the Primary Care-Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PC-PTSD) screening tool by bedside nurses would result in identifying more patients at risk for traumatic stress after an acute trauma as compared with the use of no …

Examining The Relationship Between Clinical Judgment And Nursing Actions In Prelicensure Students, Andrea Stuedemann Fedko, Kristina Dreifuerst

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Faculty frequently use the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR) to identify students’ clinical judgment; however, it is unclear whether LCJR scores relate to appropriate nursing action. In a pilot study consisting of senior-level nursing students (N = 22), participants were scored on the LCJR and anticipated nursing actions, and results were analyzed using simple linear regression. There was a statistically significant correlation (r = 0.364) between clinical judgment and nursing action. Results suggest that total LCJR scores may be an indicator of the completion of indicated nursing action.
