A Systematic Review And Development Of Best Practice In The Usage Of Video Recording During Debriefing Of Simulation With Undergraduate Nursing Students, Sarah J. Rodewald, Andrea M. Bell
A Systematic Review And Development Of Best Practice In The Usage Of Video Recording During Debriefing Of Simulation With Undergraduate Nursing Students, Sarah J. Rodewald, Andrea M. Bell
Master of Science in Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Projects
The purpose of this evidence based project was to evaluate current literature and synthesize the best practice guidelines for debriefing and video-assisted debriefing (VAD) as it relates to simulation-based learning for undergraduate nursing students. Presently, high fidelity patient simulators (HFPS) and various debriefing techniques are used in many different occupational fields. Facilitator led verbal debriefing is a standard practice in nursing schools following a simulation to guide student reflection and learning. Newer technology, however, is now allowing for video-recording and annotation of simulations for enhanced debriefing sessions and can be used for immediate review. Some evidence-based guidelines exist for standard …

Thirty-five percent of mortalities in children under the age of five can be attributed to malnutrition (World Health Organization (WHO), n.d.). Nearly 24 percent of children less than five from 2008-2012 in the Central African Republic were moderately or severely underweight and nearly eight percent suffered from severe or moderate wasting (The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund, 2013). As a result of recent sectarian violence which began with a coup in March 2013, the Central African Republic is facing a nutrition crisis. As a result, an estimated 28,000 Central African children under the age of five are predicted to …
Smoking Cessation During Pregnancy: An Evidence Based Practice Protocol, Katherine J. Ruhlman
Smoking Cessation During Pregnancy: An Evidence Based Practice Protocol, Katherine J. Ruhlman
Master of Science in Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Projects
Intrauterine exposure to nicotine is one of the largest modifiable risk factors for infant morbidity and mortality. Previous progress toward decreasing the number impacted by intrauterine nicotine exposure has recently plateaued. While guidelines for assisting pregnant women to stop smoking are available, few providers have a formalized protocol in place. This project will evaluate most current research evidence regarding smoking cessation during pregnancy in order to develop a formalized protocol for implementation in an obstetric clinic in Southwest Ohio. Reviewed literature was summarized and level of evidence was established. Recommendations were made and categorized as strong, moderate, and weak. The …
Evidence-Based Recommendations For The Management Of Prescription Stimulants Abuse (Psa) Among College Students, Marie O. Owoeye
Evidence-Based Recommendations For The Management Of Prescription Stimulants Abuse (Psa) Among College Students, Marie O. Owoeye
Master of Science in Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Projects
Prescription stimulants have been identified as one of the most written psychoactive prescription medications found among college students. Likewise, prescription stimulant abuse (PSA) has greatly increased in the college campuses (5.4% in 2003 to 9.3% in 2013). Several factors such as (a) diversion and sharing of prescribed stimulants among families, friends and others; (b) lack of knowledge about the risks associated with prescription stimulants; (c) polysubstance use; (c) academic enhancement; and (d) stress from ineffective coping skills and life events, have been identified as contributing factors to the increase in PSA among college students. Various critical health-related symptoms such as …
