    Abstract Objectives: To review the evidence on sleep wake disturbance (SWD) in adults with cancer and provide an up-to-date review of the prevalence, impact, causes, risk factors, assessment, options for treatment, and emerging science and technology.
    Data sources: These include a synthesis of review articles and sources in electronic databases CONCLUSION: SWD is a prevalent and debilitating problem for millions of people living with cancer. If not addressed, SWD can negatively impact physical and psychological recovery from cancer. Multiple factors contribute to SWD among patients with cancer including a variety of physical symptoms related to cancer and its treatment including fatigue, anxiety, and other psychological symptoms. When SWD risk factors are predicted and clinical features evaluated, there are several treatment options and strategies available to help patients in a timely manner. There is a substantial body of evidence supporting the use of psychosocial interventions and behavioral treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI). Growing evidence supports exercise and mindfulness-based stress reduction to diminish SWD. Sleep needs to be prioritized in cancer care, but dedicated effort and resources are needed to address the patient, clinician, institutional, and societal barriers to routine sleep evaluation and effective delivery of SWD interventions.
    Implications for nursing practice: It is important for oncology providers to be educated regarding both pharmacologic and nonpharmacological treatments. Strategies for management of SWD in the context of cancer care delivery and future research are discussed in the context of the predictive preventive and personalized medicine framework (PPPM).

    Abstract Background: Mid-career nurse scientists in academia face many challenges that can lead to burnout and exiting the profession. Finding ways to increase satisfaction and support will help retain these critical faculty in research positions.
    Purpose: Describe areas of satisfaction and challenges to success in the faculty role for mid-career nurse scientists in academia.
    Method: Cross-sectional, descriptive. A total of 65 self-identified mid-career nurse scientists completed an online survey.
    Findings: Mid-career nurse scientists were most satisfied with their role at their organization, least satisfied with time for research and opportunities to receive mentoring. They felt moderately supported by colleagues and deans, least supported by their ADR. Differences in satisfaction among nurse scientists in different levels of research institutions were noted.
    Discussion: Challenges to success in mid-career nurse scientists exist. Loss of nurse scientists at mid-career threatens to undermine the knowledge base of the individuals who mentor the next generation of scientists. The discipline must support mid-career scientists in their efforts to be successful in research.

    Abstract Background/purpose: A qualitative study was designed to explore facilitators and barriers to success from the perspectives of self-identified mid-career nurse scientists.
    Methods: Data were collected from 84 respondents using open-ended items as part of an electronic survey of self-identified mid-career nurse scientists who were members of regional nursing research societies.
    Discussion/conclusion: Two main themes emerged: "Perceived Realities" and "What's Needed to Achieve Career Success." Mid-career nurse scientists experience both joy from teaching and research roles and dissatisfaction with research support; difficulty balancing heavy teaching workload, administrative responsibilities, and research, and ineffective mentoring. Based on the challenges in their environment, respondents identified numerous ways to enhance career success including (1) increasing or enhancing release time for research activities, (2) formal infrastructure to support research activities, and (3) targeted, effective mentoring by senior scientists.

    Abstract Background: Nurses with a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree are essential to developing nursing knowledge, promoting health outcomes, and educating the next generation of nurses. Declining enrollment in nursing PhD programs calls for purposeful action. Guided by Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Framework, this article outlines barriers and facilitators, and offers strategies to increase PhD enrollment.
    Method: Extant literature and the authors' cumulative experiences in PhD education and research were reviewed to identify strategies to increase PhD enrollment.
    Results: Multilevel influences impede or facilitate enrollment in PhD programs. Strategies addressing individual and interpersonal influences included intentional personalized recruiting and early outreach to students at various levels of education. Institutional and organizational strategies included research partnerships and programs, and financial and infrastructure support. Sociocultural strategies included image branding and a positive social media presence supporting nurse scientists.
    Conclusion: Strategies to enhance PhD enrollment across all levels can spark interest in nursing science and PhD enrollment.

    Abstract Sleep disturbances and fatigue are significant problems for critically ill patients. Existing sleep disorders, underlying medical/surgical conditions, environmental factors, stress, medications, and other treatments all contribute to a patient's inability to sleep. Sleep disturbance and debilitating fatigue that originate during acute illness may continue months after discharge from intensive care units (ICUs). If these issues are unrecognized, lack of treatment may contribute to chronic sleep problems, impaired quality of life, and incomplete rehabilitation. A multidisciplinary approach that incorporates assessment of sleep disturbances and fatigue, environmental controls, appropriate pharmacologic management, and educational and behavioral interventions is necessary to reduce the impact of sleep disturbances and fatigue in ICU patients. Nurses are well positioned to identify issues in their own units that prevent effective patient sleep. This article will discuss the literature related to the occurrence, etiology, and risk factors of sleep disturbance and fatigue and describe assessment and management options in critically ill adults.

    Abstract Sleep deficiency is common and distressing for women with breast cancer throughout the care continuum. This article describes the scope and quality of evidence related to exercise interventions to improve sleep in women with breast cancer. Fifteen studies met the criteria and 12 were judged to be excellent quality. The most frequent intervention was walking, primarily during the time of chemotherapy. Eleven studies reported postintervention improvement in sleep deficiency. Most yoga, qigong, and dance intervention studies reported no differences between groups. Emerging evidence exists for the effectiveness of aerobic exercise to improve various sleep outcomes in women with breast cancer.

    Abstract It is critical that clinicians and healthcare systems adopt routine screening and affordable interventions to reduce chronic insomnia and improve the quality of life in cancer patients and survivors. We provide expert clinical advice on how to manage sleep-wake disturbances that occur comorbidly with cancer. Our discussion focuses on the etiology, screening, and assessment of sleep-wake disturbances, and on both nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic interventions to manage sleep disturbances, insomnia, and sleep-related breathing disorders. We share a simplified sleep management algorithm based on evidence-based guidelines and resources from the National Cancer Institute, National Comprehensive Cancer Network, and Oncology Nursing Society, as well as case studies that illustrate how oncology professionals can use the algorithm. Finally, we describe ways to strengthen the partnership between clinicians and patients in the management of sleep-wake disorders and related symptoms.

    Abstract Mid-career nurse scientists in academia are at risk for burnout and departing scientific careers, particularly those in research-intensive academic settings. With the shortage of nursing faculty and the public health need for high-quality nursing research, it is critical to retain current research-focused individuals in nursing. In this paper, we discuss definitions and expectations of mid-career scientists, challenges and barriers faced by mid-career scientists, and opportunities for mid-career scientists, informed by both nursing and non-nursing literature. Finally, we focus on definitions and expectations, challenges, and opportunities specifically related to mid-career nurse scientists in research-intensive academic settings.
