Resilience, Moral Distress, And Workplace Engagement In Emergency Department Nurses, Paul Clark, Timothy Crawford, Brandonn Hulse, Barbara Polivka

This cross-sectional, correlational study’s purpose was to evaluate the effects of resilience and moral distress on workplace engagement in emergency department nurses providing direct patient care.

L’Utilizzo Del Tourniquet Nelle Emorragie Da Trauma In Ambito Civile: Una Revisione Narrativa Della Letteratura (Tourniquet In Traumatic Haemorrhage In Civilian Settings: A Narrative Literature Review), Celeste Marie Alfes
Faculty Scholarship
Introduzione: L’emorragia arteriosa è una delle principali cause di morte in ambito civile e militare.

L’obiettivo dello studio è quello di sintetizzare i metodi di utilizzo, le condizioni dei pazienti, gli esiti e le complicazioni relative alle applicazioni del tourniquet. Materiali e Metodi: È stata condotta una revisione narrativa della letteratura tramite PubMed. Risultati: Dieci articoli inclusi hanno fornito informazioni su …
