Using A Critical Safety Behavior Scoring Tool For N95 Respirator Use To Evaluate Training Interventions, Elizabeth L. Beam, Kevin A. Kupzyk, Jocelyn J. Herstein, Shawn Gibbs Mar 2020

Using A Critical Safety Behavior Scoring Tool For N95 Respirator Use To Evaluate Training Interventions, Elizabeth L. Beam, Kevin A. Kupzyk, Jocelyn J. Herstein, Shawn Gibbs

Posters and Presentations: College of Nursing

Background: Hospitals struggle nationally to educate healthcare workers on the safe use of N95 respirators as part of their respiratory protection programs. Practical and effective interventions are needed to improve this clinical behavior which is critical to healthcare worker safety in airborne precautions, hazardous drug administration, and pandemic response. This analysis specifically investigated two just-in-time training interventions that would be practical to implement in a hospital setting. Method: A simulation approach was used to evaluate two interventions for N95 respirator use at a Midwestern Academy Hospital system (n=62, 32 control, 30 treatment). Healthcare workers were asked to don and doff …

Where Are We Now? Practice-Level Utilization Of Nurse Practitioners In Comparison With State-Level Regulations, Jana Zwilling, Kathryn Fiandt Mar 2019

Where Are We Now? Practice-Level Utilization Of Nurse Practitioners In Comparison With State-Level Regulations, Jana Zwilling, Kathryn Fiandt

Posters and Presentations: College of Nursing

Background. Full practice authority for NPs is optimal for high-quality, cost-effective healthcare. However, a complete picture of utilization after states have adopted full practice authority needs to be determined. Objective. To review the evidence regarding practice-level utilization (PLU) of Nurse Practitioners (NP) PLU in comparison to state-level regulations (SLR). Data Sources. Studies published in English and based on US populations were identified through PubMed, CINAHL, and SCOPUS (January 1, 1989 - December 31, 2018), and bibliographies of retrieved articles. Of the 419 articles identified with these limits, 19 (5%) met all inclusion and exclusion criteria. Conclusions. Four categories …

Identification Of Candidate Genes For Psychological Resilience To Develop An Additive Genetic Resilience Index: An Integrative Review, Kosuke Niitsu, Julia F. Houfek Apr 2015

Identification Of Candidate Genes For Psychological Resilience To Develop An Additive Genetic Resilience Index: An Integrative Review, Kosuke Niitsu, Julia F. Houfek

Posters and Presentations: College of Nursing

Problem: Most individuals experience at least one potentially traumatic event (PTE), such as tornado, in their lifetime. When exposed to PTEs, some individuals are more vulnerable to psychopathology, such as Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). In contrast, other individuals are better able to cope with PTEs and maintain their psychological health. Such individuals are often described as psychologically resilient. Resilience is heritable, influenced by multiple genes including the Serotonin-Transporter-Linked Polymorphic Region (5-HTTLPR), the most studied candidate gene. Because resilience is polygenic, it is important to consider the influence of multiple genes in addition to 5-HTTLPR when studying the heritable component of …


Role Of The Serotonin Transporter Gene In Resilience To Stress And Trauma: An Integrative Review, Kosuke Niitsu Oct 2014

Role Of The Serotonin Transporter Gene In Resilience To Stress And Trauma: An Integrative Review, Kosuke Niitsu

Posters and Presentations: College of Nursing

Resilience is defined as a multi-dimensional dynamic concept of positive adaptation to stress and trauma. It is estimated that 38 - 52% of phenotypic variation in resilience among Americans is due to genetic variance. Among nine candidate genes associated with resilience, the promoter region of serotonin transporter gene (5- HTTLPR) is of increasing clinical interest. Accumulating evidence suggests those who carry the Short (S) allele of 5-HTTLPR may be at increased risk of developing psychopathology such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, little is known about whether S allele carriers are less resilient to stress and trauma compared to Long …


Investigating Infection Control Behavior In Nurses: Impact Of Computer Charting, Elizabeth L. Beam, Shawn Gibbs Nov 2013

Investigating Infection Control Behavior In Nurses: Impact Of Computer Charting, Elizabeth L. Beam, Shawn Gibbs

Posters and Presentations: College of Nursing

In a small mixed methods study, nursing behaviors related to infection control were evaluated as nurses participated in a video recorded patient care simulation. The scenario asked the nurse to care for a patient in both airborne and contact isolation precautions with small high definition cameras mounted in a real hospital room. The patient was simulated by a live actor with an artificial intravenous line. The simulation scenario asked the nurse to assess their patient and give them some pain medication. The simulation experience was followed by a Think Aloud session while participants watched their individual simulation performance. The session …
