Supervised Versus Independent Student Laboratories, Luther C. Kloth, Mary Ann Morrison

Physical Therapy Faculty Research and Publications

Antibiotic Susceptibility Of Black-Pigmented Bacteroides Isolates From The Human Oral Cavity, Linda Jean Laatsch, Paul R. Hohenfeldt, William L. Kos

Biomedical Sciences Faculty Research and Publications

The minimal inhibitory concentrations of penicillin and six other antibiotics were determined for 66 oral black-pigmented Bacteroides isolates by using the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards proposed standard agar dilution technique. These results plus iodometric determination of β-lactamase activity showed that oral isolates of black-pigmented Bacteroides are remaining relatively susceptible to commonly used antibiotics.

The Impact Of Supplemental Simulation On Newly Licensed Registered Nurses, Aimee A. Woda, Kristina Dreifuerst, Mauricio Garnier-Villarreal

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

Background

Challenges exist for nursing students as they transition to their role as newly licensed registered nurses (NLRNs) due to a mismatch between their perceived readiness and role competency and the demands of the practice environment. Simulations with debriefing may be one strategy to better prepare students for the role of a NLRN. The purpose of this study was to explore whether supplementing traditional clinical experiences with simulation versus substituting simulation for traditional clinical experiences had an impact on NLRNs' perception of competence, work stress, and job satisfaction.

Sample

A convenience sample of 115 NLRNs from two successive graduating classes …
