Sepsis Screening Education, Brittany R. Horn
Sepsis Screening Education, Brittany R. Horn
Doctor of Nursing Practice Scholarly Project
Sepsis is a significant burden to the healthcare field with 1.7 million Americans annually diagnosed with this condition. Earlier diagnosis and treatment are the most effective ways of reducing morbidity and mortality related to sepsis. The current sepsis screening tool in place at Stormont-Vail Hospital, in Topeka, Kansas, is the systemic inflammatory response (SIRS) criteria; however, this screening tool has proven to be less effective than other screening tools available. The screening tools proven more effective than the SIRS criteria, are the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) and the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA). For this project, nursing staff …
Healthcare Provider Overlap On Evidenced-Based Practice In Intubated Patients Using The Theoretical Domain Framework: A Case Study, Katie Bull
CUP Ed.D. Dissertations
Intubation by endotracheal or tracheostomy means is a common life-saving intervention bearing significant, yet preventable risk. Evidence-based practice (EBP), intended to mitigate risk, is often inconsistently adhered to by healthcare providers (HCPs) due to a variety of factors, leaving patients vulnerable to adverse outcomes such as ventilator-associated pneumonia or tracheostomy-related stenosis. A review of the literature identified socially related barriers resulting from overlapping roles and expectations of primary HCPs. Little research has been conducted to understand the impact of overlap on EBP adherence. Using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF), this case study explored HCP overlap in one critical care unit …

Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice
Purpose: Interprofessional Education (IPE) incorporated into healthcare discipline instruction has been shown to be successful in improving the understanding perceptions of complimentary professions. The purpose of this mixed method study was to measure differences in perceptions of early Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing (BSN) students and Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) with participation in a immersive interprofessional education experience. Method: Students completed a pre and posttest survey consisting of the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale and several short answer qualitative questions. Cohorts of BSN and DPT students participated in a computerized mannequin simulation experience or a hybrid simulation. Results: Students …
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
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 …
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 …
