    Abstract The small freshwater cnidarian Hydra has been the subject of scientific inquiry for over 300 years due to its remarkable regenerative capacities and apparent immortality. More recently, Hydra has been recognized as an excellent model system within neuroscience because of its small size, transparency, and simple nervous system, which allow high-resolution imaging of its entire nerve net while behaving. In less than a decade, studies of Hydra's nervous system have yielded insights into the activity of neural circuits in vivo unobtainable in most other animals. In addition to these unique attributes, there is yet another lesser-known feature of Hydra that makes it even more intriguing: it does not require its neural hardware to live. The extraordinary ability to survive the removal and replacement of its entire nervous system makes Hydra uniquely suited to address the question of what neurons add to an extant organism. Here, I will review what early work on nerve-free Hydra reveals about the potential role of the nervous system in these animals and point towards future directions for this work.

  4. Article ; Online: Implementing an Evidence-Based Functional Pain Assessment Scale in an Adult Inpatient Unit.

    Hanson, Allison / Jackson, Seth / Laures, Elyse

    Pain management nursing : official journal of the American Society of Pain Management Nurses

    2024

    Abstract Background: The focus on pain assessment using a single, one-dimension pain assessment scale can be problematic. Locally, challenges we faced with this were; a) pain was percieved as not being effectively managed, b) patients with chronic pain were not having their pain adequately controlled, and c) misconceptions and subsequent confusion between health care teams and patients related to what pain intensity scores mean to each individual.
    Aims: The purpose of this paper is to describe an evidence-based practice project aiming at improving pain assessment through the implementation of a Functional Pain Scale (FPS) on an adult inpatient cardiothoracic unit.
    Design: The Iowa Model-Revised and the Implementation Strategies for Evidence- Based Practice Guide served as the framework for this project.
    Setting: Over an 18-month period at a academic tertiary medical center in the midwest.
    Participants/subjects: Staff and patients on an adult inpatient 48-bed medical and surgical cardiothoracic unit.
    Methods: Following a synthesis of the evidence, implementation of the FPS required various strategies, such as, individualized patient and staff education, audit and feedback, a pain policy revision, and creating documentation in the electronic medical record. Evaluation of the FPS consisted of patient and staff surveys pre- and postimplementation to assess knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
    Results: After the pilot period, over 75% of the patients preferred to use the FPS and almost all the patients found the scale easy to use. Nurses reported an increase in perception that pain documentation was complete, that the FPS allowed them to accurately document their patients' pain experience, and that their patients were well informed of their pain management plan.
    Conclusions: This project supports successful implementation of the FPS within nursing workflow. The goal of using the FPS is to change pain management discussions from an intensity reduction to meeting goals of care, aligning expectations, and creating common language among patients and providers.

    Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine how Advantage Mathematics Recovery (AVMR) impacted the performance of low achieving students. The AVMR Program identifies students who struggle with foundational mathematic skills. Students were given a structuring assessment that analyzed the foundational skills of combining and partitioning numbers to 20 (adding and subtracting 0-20), subitizing (instantly recognizing how many in a small set), and thinking flexibly (able to use multiple strategies to solve a problem). After the assessment was administered, seven fifth-grade students were selected to participate in the study based on their need to improve in the key foundational areas identified. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this action research project was not able to be completed as originally planned. Two weeks of data were collected, however sufficient evidence to determine a conclusion was not gathered. The original study would have observed students during the intervention time as well as their general education math time to monitor whether they were making progress towards the week’s goal or if the intervention was not working for any of the students. An autoethnographic approach was used to reflect on how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted this study and teaching.

    Abstract Due to the growing number of ageing prisoners in the American correctional system, penal institutions are increasingly caring for patients with chronic and potentially terminal medical conditions. To address this problem states have attempted sentencing reform initiatives and adopted compassionate release programmes; however, these efforts have failed to significantly reduce the number of elderly or seriously ill inmates. Correctional mental health services are now called upon to aid in the care of prisoners at the end of life. This article presents the common elements of prison hospice programmes and the role psychiatry plays in this multidisciplinary effort. The right-to-die movement holds future implications for correctional mental health professionals. The historical and legal background of this international movement is presented with particular attention given to landmark cases and statutes protecting institutionalized patients.

    Abstract Background: A learning curve is graphical representation of the relationship between effort, such as repetitive practice or time spent, and the resultant learning based on specific outcomes. Group learning curves provide information for designing educational interventions or assessments. Little is known regarding the learning curves for Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) psychomotor skill acquisition of novice learners. As POCUS inclusion in education increases, a more thorough understanding of this topic is needed to allow educators to make informed decisions regarding curriculum design. The purpose of this research study is to: (A) define the psychomotor skill acquisition learning curves of novice Physician Assistant students, and (B) analyze the learning curves for the individual image quality components of depth, gain and tomographic axis.
    Results: A total of 2695 examinations were completed and reviewed. On group-level learning curves, plateau points were noted to be similar for abdominal, lung, and renal systems around 17 examinations. Bladder scores were consistently good across all exam components from the start of the curriculum. For cardiac exams, students improved even after 25 exams. Learning curves for tomographic axis (angle of intersection of the ultrasound with the structure of interest) were longer than those for depth and gain. Learning curves for axis were longer than those for depth and gain.
    Conclusion: Bladder POCUS skills can be rapidly acquired and have the shortest learning curve. Abdominal aorta, kidney, and lung POCUS have similar learning curves, while cardiac POCUS has the longest learning curve. Analysis of learning curves for depth, axis, and gain demonstrates that axis has the longest learner curve of the three components of image quality. This finding has previously not been reported and provides a more nuanced understanding of psychomotor skill learning for novices. Learners might benefit from educators paying particular attention to optimizing the unique tomographic axis for each organ system.

    Abstract Previous research indicates that majority of firefighters suffer from some level of stress and burnout. Stress is the mental or emotional strain resulting from adverse or demanding circumstances. Unaddressed stress leads to occupational burnout and other severe stress conditions. Firefighters are offered limited prevention measures to decrease stress related symptoms. This quantitative, correlational study investigated whether a statistically significant relationship exists between levels of stress, burnout, and mindfulness among United States firefighters who were members of an online firefighter forum. Stress was measured using Perceived Stress Scale-10. Burnout was measured using Maslach’s Burnout Inventory-HSS, with three factors (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment). Mindfulness was measured using the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire. Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient test was used for all four hypotheses (n = 117). The first, second and third null hypotheses were rejected revealing a significant negative relationship between Perceived Stress and Mindfulness, Emotional Exhaustion and Mindfulness, and Depersonalization and Mindfulness. The null hypothesis for research question four was rejected because of a significant positive relationship between the Personal Accomplishment and Mindfulness. These findings expand scientific knowledge about firefighters and levels of stress, burnout and mindfulness. The current study confirms prior research that found similar relationships between stress, burnout, and mindfulness among other first responder professions. Further research could explore the effects of mindfulness-based stress reduction interventions for firefighters specifically.
