Choosing A Vaginal Birth After A Cesarean Rather Than A Repeat Elective Cesarean Delivery, Sydney Carter
Choosing A Vaginal Birth After A Cesarean Rather Than A Repeat Elective Cesarean Delivery, Sydney Carter
Scholars Week
The VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) rate has been increasing over the recent years. However, it is still a much lower rate as compared to 1996. During this time uterine rupture instances and maternal mortality rates were found to have increased. As a result, facilities over corrected and stopped offering VBACs as an option. Current research shows they are actually safer than a cesarean but most facilities do not offer this option. The purpose of this policy change is to increase the rate of VBACs by providing good education to expectant mothers through their nurses.
Proper Indwelling And External Catheter Use To Reduce Cauti's, Taylor Stephens
Proper Indwelling And External Catheter Use To Reduce Cauti's, Taylor Stephens
Scholars Week
Evidence based practice and research shows that the risk for CAUTI’s increases each day of catheterization. Research also showed that the rate of inappropriate catheterizations was very high. The conclusion made from the research recommended that catheters be removed as soon as possible in order to decrease the risk of CAUTI’s. Interventions to decrease CAUTI and inappropriate catheterization rates includes requiring a new doctors order for the continuation of an indwelling catheter every day and requiring more frequent assessment of the need for a PureWick. This method forces both the doctor and the nurse to assess the patient for the …
Utilization Of Music Therapy In The Icu Setting, Danielle York
Utilization Of Music Therapy In The Icu Setting, Danielle York
Scholars Week
This topic was selected in the hopes of bringing awareness to music therapy and the positive benefits it can have on patients and their pain in a high stress environment. The evidence shows that music therapy can have a positive effect on patient outcomes and is a cost-effective measure that hospitals can easily implement. The education needed to implement this intervention would be geared toward patients that nurses could present to them upon pain report. The evidence proves that this is an efficient way to control patient pain and allow for a more relaxing environment.
KEYWORDS: Music, therapy, pain, education, …
Chlorhexidine: The Fight To End Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia, Jeremy Gaspari
Chlorhexidine: The Fight To End Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia, Jeremy Gaspari
Scholars Week
There is a major problem that affects patient outcomes in the hospital setting. This problem is ventilator-associated pneumonia. Ventilator-associated pneumonia is the second most nosocomial infection in critical care patients. A new policy is needed to ensure that interventions are being done to decrease the risk of patients getting ventilator-associated pneumonia. Ventilator-associated pneumonia also has a high risk of mortality. If interventions are being done, the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia and mortality will decrease. Prophylactic oral care with chlorhexidine solution is show through evidence to decrease the risk of both ventilator-associated pneumonia and mortality rates. The use of ventilator bundles …
Delayed Newborn Bathing, Trisha Freudenberg
Delayed Newborn Bathing, Trisha Freudenberg
Scholars Week
Abstract:
The title of this paper is Delayed Newborn Bathing. The purpose of this project was to research the evidence and literature that supports the need for a delayed newborn bath. The project discusses the benefits of a delayed bath and what affect it has on the infant’s temperature, blood sugar/blood glucose, and exclusive breast feeding rates. Three evidence-based research studies have been presented within this project (“Impact on delayed newborn bathing one exclusive breastfeeding rates, glucose, and temperature stability, and weight loss”, “Initiative to improve exclusive breastfeeding by delaying the newborn bath”, and “Effects of delayed newborn bathing on …
Librarian At The Colloquium: Delivering Unique Library Content For Phd Students, Susan Franzen
Librarian At The Colloquium: Delivering Unique Library Content For Phd Students, Susan Franzen
Transforming Libraries for Graduate Students
PhD students have unique needs and require different resources and services from the library than undergraduates, which is especially true of professionals in a nursing program. As clinicians, many do not have experience with the research and writing intensive requirements of a doctoral degree. The majority have not taken classes for years, and their master’s degrees were more hands-on, clinically-based. They often do not feel confident in their ability to search the literature, read closely, or write expansively. A unique avenue through which to meet their needs and share library resources is a PhD colloquium course.
Students take the colloquium …

We’Re Both Your Librarian: A Course Collaboration Between An Academic Library And A Health Sciences Library, Stephanie Evers Ard
We’Re Both Your Librarian: A Course Collaboration Between An Academic Library And A Health Sciences Library, Stephanie Evers Ard
Georgia International Conference on Information Literacy
The University of South Alabama is in the process of merging its academic library and health sciences library, which have previously functioned as essentially separate entities. This ongoing process requires many changes, from budget and staff considerations, to revisiting the roles the librarians play in their respective academic communities. This last concern led to a collaboration between two librarians--the Assistant Director for Strategic Initiatives at the health sciences library and the Social Sciences and Student Engagement Librarian at the academic library--in response to a faculty request for an embedded librarian to support a fully-online graduate nursing class in scholarly writing. …

Tobacco Use Among College Students, Tasnim Mohamed, Karina Ramirez, Victoria Cruz, Keiko Sayson, Winnie Asrevi, Sarah Kelly
Student Research Symposium
Background: College students engage in various risk-taking behaviors, such as tobacco use. Literature has identified various reasons such as the need for psychological coping for their stress and anxiety, and the social influence of peer pressure from family and friends. Tobacco use comes in different forms such as pipes, cigars, and e-cigarettes. The use of these substances by a parent, sibling, or peer is highly associated with high levels of use among college students. Students are more likely to use an alternative tobacco product as a form of cigarette cessation. Therefore, the purpose of our study is to gain an …

An Overview Of The Utilization Of A University Health Center, Ashley Rosato, Dhara Patel, Jailene Martinez, Rhianna Teates, Kaylee Campoverde, Sarah Kelly
Student Research Symposium
Background: College students often do not visit university health centers or attend scheduled appointments. Missed appointments affect not only the students’ health, but also the health center. Missed appointments cannot be easily rescheduled, limit appointment times for others, and lead to a higher cost for the university. The purpose of this study is to explore student usage of a university based health care center.
Method: A retrospective review of 400 electronic health records, from college students enrolled in a State University from 2016-2017, were examined. The information collected focused on the use of the university health center, reason for appointment, …
