People who experience the greatest social inequities often have poor experiences in emergency departments (EDs) so that they are deterred from seeking care, leave without care complete, receive inadequate care, and/or return repeatedly for unre- solved problems. However, efforts to measure and monitor experiences of care rarely capture the experiences of people facing the greatest inequities, experiences of discrimination, or relationships among these variables. This analysis examined how patients’ experiences, including self-reported ratings of care, experiences of discrimination, and repeat visits vary with social and economic circumstances. Every consecutive person presenting to three diverse EDs was invited if/when they were …

How Do Canadian Public Health Agencies Respond To The Covid-19 Emergency Using Social Media: A Protocol For A Case Study Using Content And Sentiment Analysis, Anita Kothari, Lyndsay Foisey, Lorie Donelle, Michael Bauer
Nursing Publications
Introduction Keeping Canadians safe requires a robust public health (PH) system. This is especially true when there is a PH emergency, like the COVID-19 pandemic. Social media, like Twitter and Facebook, is an important information channel because most people use the internet for their health information. The PH sector can use social media during emergency events for (1) PH messaging, (2) monitoring misinformation, and (3) responding to questions and concerns raised by the public. In this study, we ask: what is the Canadian PH risk communication response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of social media? Methods and analysis …

Nursing Publications
Background: Significant chronic disease challenges exist among older adults. However, most older adults want to remain at home even if their health conditions challenge their ability to live independently. Yet publicly funded home care resources are scarce, private home care is expensive, and family/friend caregivers have limited capacity. Many older adults with chronic illness would require institutional care without the support from family member/friend caregivers. This role raises the risk of physical health problems, stress, burnout, and depression. Passive remote monitoring (RM), the use of sensors that do not require any action by the individual for the system to work, …

Head and Heart Posters 2019
Indigenous peoples experience poorer health outcomes on almost every measure of health and wellbeing, when compared to the rest of Canada. For decades researchers have been working independently on addressing health inequalities, yet little progress has been made on closing the gap. This Discipline-specific way of thinking is too narrow and neglects indigenous ideologies of holistic approaches to health. An interdisciplinary approach to indigenous health research provides a more collaborative and integrated opportunity to address the multidimensional aspects of health. This paper has the goals to contribute to the limited research on interdisciplinary indigenous health research.
Immigrant Mental Health In Canada, Fariha Jamani
Immigrant Mental Health In Canada, Fariha Jamani
2018 Undergraduate Awards
Canada is globally renowned as a nation of newcomers. Every year, around 200,000 immigrants make Canada their new home. As the share of immigrants continues to rise, understanding their systemic health transitions within the country becomes that much more crucial. Immigrant health status and wellbeing is currently discerned as a pressing public health concern. Analysis on immigrant health is critical in not only developing population specific healthcare policies, but also in building viable and resilient communities within Canada. Nonetheless, Canadian immigrants continue to have compromised physical and mental health levels; this reciprocally impacts their quality of life, self-perception and productivity. …
Effects Of Aerobic And Resistance Exercise On Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor And Cognitive Benefits In Alzheimer’S Disease, Stephanie Cullen
Effects Of Aerobic And Resistance Exercise On Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor And Cognitive Benefits In Alzheimer’S Disease, Stephanie Cullen
2017 Undergraduate Awards
Cognitive function below age-matched controls is the hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor is a biochemical molecule that mediates neuronal survival, but its expression is reduced in Alzheimer’s disease, causing neurodegeneration. Exercise has been shown to increase Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, which mediates improvements in cognition in Alzheimer’s patients and slows cognitive decline. Evidence is presented to show that aerobic exercise is well known to increase serum Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, while resistance training studies have not yet shown a conclusive effect. Increased Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor from aerobic exercise has been shown to mediate improvements in hippocampal volume and executive function. …

A Biomedical And Health Policy Analysis Of Evidence-Based Therapeutic Abortion In Canada, Luissa Vahedi
2017 Undergraduate Awards
Therapeutic Abortion (TA) is the medically-necessary termination of pregnancy due to maternal or fetal health complications. As a “wicked problem”, TA involves multiple stakeholders with competing biomedical and political ideologies. This research paper synthesizes evidence-based biomedical and health policy literature relating to TA, thereby advancing the aims of reproductive justice by supporting women in making informed health decisions. Firstly, a biomedical literature investigation was conducted to identify international evidence-based abortion standards, according to pregnancy trimester. Secondly, a policy analysis utilizing the “3-I” framework was conducted to determine the ideas, interests, and institutions involved in accessing safe and equitable TA in …

Suicide Prevention And Mental Health Initiatives For Inuit Youth In Canada, Amy Lewis
2017 Undergraduate Awards
Indigenous Peoples in Canada continue to experience health and social inequities in the postcolonial era. The Inuit are one aggregate whose livelihoods have been drastically altered through government subsistence programs and residential schools. The loss of culture, community, and relationships have had a negative impact on this population, particularly youth, as evidenced by high rates of suicide and issues with mental health and substance abuse. A search of scholarly and gray literature was completed to identify factors that contribute to suicide among Inuit youth and potential interventions. While interventions that address mental health and suicidal risk factors have been successful, …
Improving Vascular Access Outcomes: Attributes Of Arteriovenous Fistula Cannulation Success, Abram Oudshoorn
Improving Vascular Access Outcomes: Attributes Of Arteriovenous Fistula Cannulation Success, Abram Oudshoorn
Nursing Publications
Background Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are the preferred access for hemodialysis (HD) yet they are underutilized. Cannulation of the fistula is a procedure requiring significant skill development and refinement and if not done well can have negative consequences for patients. The nurses' approach, attitude and skill with cannulation impacts greatly on the patient experience. Complications from miscannulation or an inability to needle fistulas can result in the increased use of central venous catheters. Some nurses remain in a state of a 'perpetual novice' resulting in a viscous cycle of negative patient consequences (bruising, pain), further influencing patients' decisions not to pursue …

Transitioning From Nursing Student To Clinical Teacher In Saudi Arabia, Aisha Namshan Aldawsari, Yolanda Babenko-Mould, Mary-Anne Andrusyszyn
Nursing Publications
Despite the remarkable growth in programs and educational facilities in Saudi Arabia (SA) since 1969 when nursing education was introduced, and the influx of government funding to advance nursing education, nursing is often not considered to be a desirable career option or a valued profession in SA. The main socio-cultural reasons contributing to this issue are that nurses traditionally work in mixed-gender environments for long hours and during night shifts, which would cause many female nurses to be away from their families. Thus, newly graduated nurses tend to be employed in roles that are highly respected by society, such as …

Workplace Violence In The Healthcare Setting, Michelle M.M. Lenssen, Shirley Mccreery
Nursing Publications
Workplace Violence (WPV) is an all-encompassing term used to describe abusive behaviours directed at another with the intent to cause harm. Although the definition varies according to situations and practice settings, there is agreement that WPV has a negative impact on the health and wellbeing of nurses and the delivery of quality nursing care (Choiniere, MacDonnell, & Shamonda, 2010; Higgins & MacIntosh, 2010; Registered Nurses Association of Ontario [RNAO], 2008; Hsinag-Chu & Lee, 2011; Vessey, DeMarco, Gaffney, & Budin, 2009). The growing epidemic of violence in the workplace is of great concern for employees, employers and government agencies and is …
