Podium Presentation: Continuous Labor Epidural Placement Trends Among Parturients: An Evidence-Based Practice Project, Aleksandr A. Lyakhov, Teresa Bigand, Amanda Affleck, Kenn Daratha, Kris Daratha

2022 Providence Nurse Research Conference

Background:

Childbirth is very painful, and unmanaged pain may reduce patient satisfaction or lead to other complications. Evidence indicates that pain severity is lower among parturient women administered analgesia via a continuous labor epidural (CLE) and that maternal request is sufficient indication for CLE placement to manage labor pain. In some cases, a medical induction of labor may be scheduled, offering an opportunity for proactive pain management from hospital staff. Yet, trends on timing of CLE placement among parturient women with scheduled labor induction versus spontaneous labor in hospitals in Eastern Washington at one health system are unclear.

Purpose:

The …

All Podium Presentations

Background: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) accounts for the highest mortality of all gynecological cancers. NCCN guidelines recommend germline and somatic testing for all women with invasive EOC. Despite this recommendation, there is a large diversity in the types of testing patients receive even within a single healthcare system. Reported data of genetic testing for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients is largely based on patients treated at academic medical centers or patients who participate in clinical trials.

Purpose: This study sought to determine the rates of germline and somatic testing for epithelial ovarian cancer patients and identify factors that impact testing …

Musa, Christopher Darus, Nancy Biery, Roshanthi Weerasinghe, Grace Li, Ann Vita, Shwetha Pindikuri, Amy S. Parrish, Charles W Drescher

All Podium Presentations

Background: NCCN guidelines recommend germline and somatic tumor testing for all women with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Despite this recommendation, testing rates remain low and an optimal strategy to achieve the recommended testing has not been defined.

Purpose: We elected to review the patterns of germline and somatic tumor testing for patients with EOC across a large health care network to identify barriers to testing.

Methods: Clinical, pathologic, demographic and genomic testing (GT) information including involvement of a genetic counselor, specific test(s) ordered, test vendor, test turn-around time, and test results were obtained from the diverse dataset within the …


Frequency Of Homologous Recombination Deficiency In A Large Community-Based Cohort Of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Cases, Nicole M. Kretzer, Fernanda B. Musa, Christopher Darus, Nancy Biery, Roshanthi Weerasinghe, Grace Li, Ann Vita, Shwetha Pindikuri, Amy S. Parrish, Charles W Drescher Jan 2022

Frequency Of Homologous Recombination Deficiency In A Large Community-Based Cohort Of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Cases, Nicole M. Kretzer, Fernanda B. Musa, Christopher Darus, Nancy Biery, Roshanthi Weerasinghe, Grace Li, Ann Vita, Shwetha Pindikuri, Amy S. Parrish, Charles W Drescher

All Podium Presentations

Purpose/Background: Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is a useful predictor of treatment response in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Reported data on the frequency of HRD in EOC is largely based on analysis of patients treated at academic medical centers or who participated in clinical trials. We sought to characterize the frequency of HRD based on mutations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes, genomic instability (GI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) scores in a large community-based cohort of EOC patients who received genomic testing in the context of routine clinical care.

Methods: Information including patient demographic, tumor stage and histology …
