Neurocognitive Effects Of 12-Hour Shifts On Bedside Nurses, Caroline N. Miller
Neurocognitive Effects Of 12-Hour Shifts On Bedside Nurses, Caroline N. Miller
Merge
The student researcher conducted a research study to determine if there was a significant difference in the neurocognitive abilities of bedside nurses at the beginning of a 12-hour shift versus the end of the same shift. The student researcher hypothesized there was a significant difference in the neurocognitive abilities of bedside nurses at the beginning of one’s shift as compared to the end of the same shift. Conversely, the null hypothesis stated there was no significant difference in the neurocognitive abilities of bedside nurses at the beginning of one’s shift as compared to the end of the same shift. An …

Investigating The Effects Of Cyppa On Small-Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels In Sod1g93a Transgenic Mouse Model, Matthew M. Murphy
Investigating The Effects Of Cyppa On Small-Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels In Sod1g93a Transgenic Mouse Model, Matthew M. Murphy
Browse all Theses and Dissertations
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a fatal, progressive, neurodegenerative disease. There currently is no cure for the disease and limited treatment options have modest effects. A hallmark of the disease is motoneuron degeneration. Within the membrane of motoneurons are small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels. SK Channels function to mediate medium afterhyperpolarization period of an action potential and have substantial influence on the firing rate of motoneurons. SK channels, specifically SK2 and SK3 isoforms, have been shown through immunohistochemistry to be affected in the SOD1G93A mouse model. The goal of this study was to investigate whether neonatal administration of CyPPA, a potent SK2 …
Achievable Toilet Sanitation, Benjamin Goulart
Achievable Toilet Sanitation, Benjamin Goulart
Master of Public Health Program Student Publications
Human feces contains ten million viruses, one million bacteria, and 1,000 parasitic cysts, contributing to cholera, diarrhea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid, polio, and various neglected tropical diseases (The Economist, 2019). Unimproved sanitation includes open defecation, shared latrines that lack privacy, or other sanitation methods with insufficient pathogen reduction of fecal material. The most affected regions are sub-Saharan Africa, Southern and Eastern Asia, Afghanistan, and Iraq (CDC, 2016). Without private toilets, girls reaching puberty are also less likely to continue school. Improved sanitation can contribute to increased human potential, human rights, and gross domestic product.

Maximizing Effectiveness Of Palliative Radiotherapy In Terminal Cancer Patients, Sarah Bifano
Maximizing Effectiveness Of Palliative Radiotherapy In Terminal Cancer Patients, Sarah Bifano
Student Research Poster Presentations 2020
Radiation therapy is utilized to treat tumor cells with high-dose radiation. When the severity of the cancer progresses, the goal of radiation therapy becomes relief of symptoms. This is referred to as palliative radiotherapy. Palliative radiotherapy can be futile if not administered efficiently. There is a recurring question of how to achieve optimal palliative radiotherapy for patients. This research evaluates the most effective factors to optimize treatment, such as proper patient selection and effective timing. A guideline for treatment selection based upon patient performance status, severity of symptoms, progression of cancer, and metastasis of cancer is formed. The sooner a …

Why Uninsured Americans Burden The Health Care System, Lindsay Mckim
Why Uninsured Americans Burden The Health Care System, Lindsay Mckim
Student Research Poster Presentations 2020
This poster exemplifies the burden that is put on the health care system specifically emergency rooms when Americans are unable to afford health insurance. It highlights the importance of health insurance and how critical it is to be able to attain health insurance for all. The lack of health insurance is being seen in these emergency departments creating longer wait times and poorer quality care because that is the only place people without insurance can get care, thus creating a burden on the health care system.

Core Measures Work...As Long As We Put In The Time, Miranda Moser
Student Research Poster Presentations 2020
Heart Failure is a serious problem in the United States that affects millions each year. Core measures were created for hospitals as a standard of care for specific diseases. This research poster focused on Heart Failure core measure 1: discharging teaching that must be provided to a patient that encompasses six key areas related to heart failure management. Statistics and various studies were drawn from and analyzed to support the position of this poster, that these discharge teachings, when conducted properly, significantly reduce the rate of hospital readmissions of heart failure patients.

Qi: Saving Skin, Saving Lives, Carrie Ann Kinney
Student Research Poster Presentations 2020
Quality Improvement (QI) projects are interprofessional team efforts, developed to improve health-care quality. Pressure injury prevention has been identified by the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) as a key nursing sensitive outcome. QI projects such as the Deal with Heels project, the Save Our Skin program, and the implementation of designated turn teams have significantly reduced the incidence of hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs). This has reduced the risk of patients developing severe complications, which significantly improves health outcomes.

Supine Vs. Prone Positioning For Breast Radiation, Jennifer Curtin
Supine Vs. Prone Positioning For Breast Radiation, Jennifer Curtin
Student Research Poster Presentations 2020
When treating breast cancer patients with radiation therapy, it is important to find treatment techniques that reduce the dose to organs at risk without compromising the target tumor volume. Due to advances in cancer diagnosis, patients are diagnosed and treated earlier causing them to live longer. However, these patients are at greater risk for developing long-term complications from treatment, specifically cardiac toxicity and cardiac diseases. Research was evaluated regarding the best treatment position for breast cancer patients to reduce the dose to organs at risk, focusing on the dose to the heart. Every breast cancer patient varies in breast anatomy, …
