Implementing A Multicomponent Intervention To Improve Nursing Knowledge Of Delirium And Interprofessional Communication Of Delirium In Intensive Care Patients, Daniel Bryan Williams
Implementing A Multicomponent Intervention To Improve Nursing Knowledge Of Delirium And Interprofessional Communication Of Delirium In Intensive Care Patients, Daniel Bryan Williams
DNP Projects
PURPOSE: The purpose of this project is to evaluate the implementation of a standardized delirium education program, delirium assessment protocol, and a standardized CAM-ICU reporting method. The goal of the project is to improve nursing delirium knowledge, CAM-ICU documentation compliance, and interdisciplinary discussion of patient’s delirium status during Multidisciplinary Rounds (MDR). This project has four distinct objectives. 1) Implement a standardized delirium assessment and communication protocol within the Lexington VAHCS ICU. 2) Increase the nursing knowledge and self-confidence of assessing ICU delirium, by 50% using a multifaceted educational approach. 3) Achieve a 90% documentation compliance rate for the CAM-ICU delirium …

Evaluation Of A Concussion Management And Discharge Education Training Module For Emergency Department Nurses, Carmen Frede
DNP Projects
Purpose: The purpose of this project was to improve the Emergency Department (ED) nurses’ knowledge on identifying patients at risk for concussions and delivering effective concussion discharge education using an educational training intervention.
Methods: This project used a descriptive, non-randomized pre-post survey design. Participation involved three stages: a pre-education survey to assess baseline concussion education knowledge, an educational intervention consisting of a narrated PowerPoint presentation, and a post-education survey to evaluate knowledge on concussion discharge education. The intervention was delivered online via the UK Canvas educational platform.
Results: The majority of nursing staff participants were female (97%) and had a …
Engaging Patients To Prevent Harm: Implementation Of Hospital Acquired Pressure Injury Prevention Education Videos, Sarah Buschmann
Engaging Patients To Prevent Harm: Implementation Of Hospital Acquired Pressure Injury Prevention Education Videos, Sarah Buschmann
DNP Projects
PURPOSE: The purpose of this proposal is to evaluate the introduction of pressure ulcer prevention videos to at risk adult patients in the intensive care unit within the acute care health setting.
METHODS: The study design is a retrospective chart review to analyze the effect of the pressure ulcer prevention videos on the number of pressure ulcers and incidence rate while comparing Jackson/Cubbin scores. As pressure ulcers continue to rise, patient education through the Get Well Network is a required intervention. This project is relevant in reducing pressure ulcers and increasing patient safety. Data collection took place from July 1 …
Effectiveness Of A School-Based Asthma Education Program For 8-10-Year-Old Children, Laura Hunt
Effectiveness Of A School-Based Asthma Education Program For 8-10-Year-Old Children, Laura Hunt
DNP Projects
Background: Asthma is the most common chronic condition to affect children in the United States Five million children throughout the United States and approximately 112, 000 children in Kentucky are living with the diagnosis of asthma (CDC, 2017; CHFS, 2017). Based on current rates 1 out of 10 elementary school-age students will likely have asthma (CDC, 2019). Educating elementary-age students about asthma and symptoms of an asthma exacerbation is very important and could save a life.
Methods: A school-based asthma education program targeting children in third and fourth grades was implemented at two elementary schools in Central Kentucky. The asthma …
Nurse Driven Enteral Nutrition Protocol For Mechanically Ventilated Patients, Deena Shewekah
Nurse Driven Enteral Nutrition Protocol For Mechanically Ventilated Patients, Deena Shewekah
DNP Projects
Introduction: Delayed enteral nutrition in critically ill patients increases the risk of complications and poor outcomes. Current evidence-based guidelines recommend initiation of enteral nutrition within 24-48 hours of intensive care unit (ICU) admission. The quality improvement (QI) project aim was to examine whether enteral nutrition was initiated within 24- 48 hours of mechanical ventilation after implementation of QI intervention in order to determine practice change.
Methods: The QI protocol was introduced to the Cardiovascular ICU (CVICU) at UK Chandler Hospital (UKHC) nurses via an education session. A post-education electronic survey identified the nurse’s understanding of the protocol. To identify nursing …

DNP Projects
Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of this project was to focus on caregiver education with an emphasis on caregiver concerns regarding the LVAD; additionally, evaluating the efficacy of an educational video acknowledging those device-related concerns identified by caregivers. The goal of this project is to improve caregiver knowledge and decrease the rate of device related concerns among the primary caregivers.
METHODS: This project is a single center cross-sectional, pre-post-test implementation design to determine the efficacy of device related concerns education on primary caregivers’ knowledge and concerns. A 16-point device related concerns scale was designed to appraise primary caregiver concerns. The scale …
