Implementation Of Asynchronous Mentor Education Modules To Improve Mentoring Competency, Elvira Sayfutdinova

Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Student Projects

Background & Significance: Structured mentorship supports new CRNAs as they transition to practice, fostering confidence, job satisfaction, and professional growth. The WashU Medicine Department of Anesthesiology (WUDA) launched a CRNA Mentorship Program in 2022, but it lacked standardized mentor education, leading to inconsistent mentor preparation and variable mentoring practices.

Review of Literature Findings: Structured mentor education improves mentoring competency across healthcare settings, yet the literature specific to CRNAs remains limited. Asynchronous, self-paced formats reduce barriers to participation for busy clinicians, but no prior study has evaluated a fully asynchronous, prerecorded mentor-education format for CRNAs.

Methods: This pre-/post quality improvement (QI) …

Implementation Of A Learning Module To Reduce Advanced Practice Provider Preceptor Burden, Michelle Bloom

Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Student Projects

The transition of advanced practice providers (APPs) from student to provider, or from an experienced provider to a new organization or location, has been identified as a high-stress period with potential turnover for new-hire APPs. APP preceptors play a key role in this transition. Limited time to teach during the clinical day and a limited knowledge base among new hires were two of many factors associated with increased preceptor burden. A brief online educational module that provided pre-clinical, organization-specific education was proposed to improve new-hire APPs’ knowledge base and reduce preceptor burden, among APP preceptors working in a 36-bed surgical/burn/trauma …

Physician Assistant/Associate Mentorship In Academic Medical Centers: Is It Necessary? A Literature Review, Allana Lewis

SIU Journal of Medical Science Scholarly Works

ABSTRACT

Background: The number of Physician Assistants/Associates (PAs) hired in academic medicine has increased over the years. Academic medical centers provide opportunities for research, clinical practice, and educational advancement. However, the status of professional mentorship opportunities specific to PAs in academic medical settings is unclear. PAs in academic medical settings are exposed to career opportunities beyond clinical practice, including research and academic education. A greater interest in the number of PAs seeking career advancement within academic medicine may arise as the number of PAs obtaining Doctor of Medical Science degrees (DMSc) increases. The purpose of this literature review is to …

Fast Discovery Of Motivic Patterns In Symbolic Music Via Lossy Compression, Adam James Wilson

Publications and Research

Generative systems that react to live musicians require rapid analysis of musical data, which rules out deep learning models: they cannot be trained within the time constraints of live performance. But because analysis results are often transformed before use, we are free to reduce the parameters that undergo transformation to a small set of primitive states. We address this coincidence of constraint and opportunity with an algorithm for online discovery of maximal musical motives that achieves speed through lossy compression: the pitch and inter-onset-interval deltas for all pairs of events in a potential motive are reduced to two-bit values, conceptualized …

Healthcare System Barriers To Somali Refugees In Kenya, Zahra Sharif Hashim

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Young Adults’ Perceptions Of Their Life Course Development After Their Parents Were Imprisoned For Violent Crimes, Selena Robinson

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Parental incarceration is an adverse childhood experience that can influence children’s emotional, educational, relational, and developmental outcomes into adulthood. Although previous research had examined the effects of parental incarceration on children, limited research had explored how young adults perceive their life course development when a parent was incarcerated for a violent crime. The purpose of this generic qualitative study was to explore the perceptions of young adults, age 18–25, regarding their life course development following parental incarceration for a violent crime. Elder’s life course development theory was the framework for this study. Data were collected through semistructured interviews with three …

Patient-Centered Summarization Framework For Ai Clinical Summarization: Mixed Methods Study, Maria Lizarazo Jimenez, Ana Gabriela Claros, Kieran Green, David Toro-Tobon, Felipe Larios, Sheena Asthana, Camila Wenczenovicz, Kerly Guevara Maldonado, Luis Vilatuna-Andrango, Ana Cristina Proano, Satya Sai Sri Bandi, Shubhangi Bagewadi, Megan E. Branda, Misk Al Zahidy, Saturnino Luz, Mirella Lapata, Juan P. Brito, Oscar J. Ponce-Ponte

School of Nursing and Midwifery

Background: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly demonstrating the potential to reach human-level performance in generating clinical summaries from patient-clinician conversations. LLMs are usually evaluated against clinical summaries that focus mainly on patients’ biology and not on their biography (eg, preferences, values, wishes, and concerns). To achieve patient-centered care, artificial intelligence clinical summarization must incorporate patient-centered domains, implemented through patient-centered summaries (PCSs). Objective: This study aimed to develop a framework to generate PCS that capture patients’ values, preferences, and wishes while ensuring clinical utility for clinicians, and assess if current open-source LLMs can achieve human-level performance in generating PCS. Methods: …

Death: The Great Antagonist In Poe’S “The Cask Of Amontillado”, Majed S. Al-Lehaibi

Journal of Arts and Social Sciences

Poe’s story “The Cask of Amontillado” has been read as a story of a premeditated crime, of revenge and the protagonist’s ultimate pride in his well-executed crime. Readers are repulsed by the sheer evil of Montresor, the main character of the story. However, this paper argues that this reading barely scratches the surface of the depth and complexity of this story. It argues that the story is told in the form of a confession. The narrator, an elderly Montresor, is full of remorse, and in telling the story, he is seeking absolution. In its deeper meaning, “The Cask of Amontillado” …
