Enhancing Athletic Participation: Continuous Glucose Monitoring For Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes Athletes, Danielle Santiago
Nursing | Student Research Posters
Background: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a lifelong autoimmune condition requiring exogenous insulin, daily insulin management, and blood glucose monitoring (Kahanovitz et al., 2018). Diagnosis, often in childhood, brings overwhelming challenges for children and parents. While no cure exists, advances in monitoring and insulin delivery enhance blood sugar control and quality of life (Mayo Clinic, 2023)
Problem Statement: It is suspected that children with T1DM develop a fear of hypoglycemia (FOH) that deters exercise. Cockroft et al. (2023) found that 70% of youth with T1DM do not meet the recommended amount of exercise (Cockcroft et al., 2023). Physical education …

Postoperative Deep Vein Thrombosis Prevention, Jaidin Degraw, Carrie Elliott, Cailey Jeffery, Melina Leone, Amber Mallory
Nursing Research and EBP Day 2023
The prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) remains a primary concern for providers. While prophylactic heparin has been routinely prescribed, other forms of prevention such as early ambulation and pneumatic compression are now being used. This project sought to identify which method of DVT prophylaxis is more effective in providing safe patient care and reducing hospital stay. Based on the literature that was reviewed, the use of dual prophylactic measures may be more beneficial than a single preventative measure. As always, more research is warranted.

The Big Picture: Use Of Photography As Standard Documentation, Megan Tebo, Rhianon Lester
The Big Picture: Use Of Photography As Standard Documentation, Megan Tebo, Rhianon Lester
Nursing Research and EBP Day 2023
Photos of surgical wounds when included in documentation can assist the clinician in providing appropriate care and help engage the patient in their care. Incorporating photos into documentation provides a consistent timeline of wound changes and can help the clinician identify issues in a timely manner and may provide a method to involve the patient in their care. An additional benefit of wound photos is the prevention of potential legal issues as it demonstrates that the quality of care received is appropriate. If medical malpractice were to result, photos add to proper documentation.
When the decision is made to include …

Pre-Visit Planning In Primary Care, Suzanne Allman, Melissa Tillman, Breanne Thielges, Melissa Diaz, John Frewing, Susan Bopp, Ozlem Kadar
Nursing Research and EBP Day 2023
Pre-visit planning is the process of collecting and organizing data prior to a patient appointment. The pre-visit planning process requires a team member to call the patient a week before the appointment through the use of a questionnaire form. This helps identify incomplete tests, screenings, immunizations and referrals that are currently outstanding. The pre-visit process results in scheduling needed appointments and lab work as well as gathering necessary information from the patient to streamline their upcoming visit. The use of pre-visit planning may result in improved patient satisfaction and decreased physician time with each patient visit.

Re-Evaluating Mobilization Practices And Their Impact On Hapis, Erin Christopher, Mary Prochaska, Luna Pierre, Lindsay Santucci, Kenny Van Ryn, Francheska Santiago
Nursing Research and EBP Day 2023
Hospital acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) contribute to longer length of stay, poor clinical outcomes and increased healthcare costs.
A literature review showed that the implementation of visual cues to identify patients who require assistance with mobility and positioning in addition to the implementation of scheduled turn teams could have a positive health impact for the patients at RGH and reduce HAPIs incidence. Research suggests that educating unlicensed staff to recognize patient Braden Scale scores and to provide daily care based on risk factors for skin breakdown may lead to improved clinical outcomes.

Nurse-Led Education For Postpartum Depression In Primiparous Asian-American Mothers, Colleen Peralta
Nursing | Student Research Posters
The postpartum period is a critical point when women remain a vulnerable in the hospital setting. This stems from various physical, emotional and psychological changes that women face after childbirth, when patient support and attention is vital. For instance, the postpartum stage poses risk to women for complications, such as postpartum depression (PPD). When left untreated and misdiagnosed, PPD can lead to adverse maternal outcomes, such as: problems with mother-infant bonding, difficulty breastfeeding, and an increased risk for suicide (Mayo Clinic, 2022).
Asian-American mothers with postpartum depression face unique challenges, including the stigma surrounding mental health, which remains prevalent within …
