    Abstract CoSAGE Community Advisory and Ethics Committee; Age-related hearing impairment yields many negative outcomes, including alterations in mental health, functional impairments, and decreased social engagement. The purpose of the current study was to examine perceived hearing impairment and its relationship with person-centered outcomes among adults in a rural community setting. A cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design was used. Survey packets of validated instruments were distributed following all weekend services at a rural community church; 72 completed surveys were returned (26% response rate). Descriptive and inferential statistics, including Spearman's rank correlations (r

    Abstract Abstract: Evidence-based practice (EBP) and innovation are critical to quality and improved outcomes in the acute care setting and are often driven by bedside caregiver and clinical nurse specialist collaboration. Several EBP models and frameworks exist to guide these efforts. Although existing models do not preclude external evidence and community-based stakeholders, they largely do not explicitly connect the hospital-based effort to the community either. In our experience in facilitating EBP projects within an acute care hospital in the upper Midwest, we observed multiple situations in which nurse-led EBP projects intersected with the surrounding community in multiple phases of the project. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate an explicit connection between hospital-placed EBP processes and community/population health. To illustrate this assertion, 3 exemplars of nurse-driven, hospital-placed innovation are presented. Implications for practice and research are discussed.

    Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common cause of irreversible dementia, continues to grow in prevalence as well as public health impact. Extensive research into the genetic etiology of AD has yielded knowledge of some genetic factors that are causative and other genetic factors that increase risk for disease. Consequently, the possibility of genetic testing in individuals with or at risk for AD is a question that nurses may be asked. Psychiatric-mental health (PMH) professionals are in key positions to influence the care of individuals who are considering the effect of genetic information on their health care decisions. Whether by working within interdisciplinary genetic counseling teams to provide direct specialty services or by developing skills to identify and refer individuals at risk for or concerned about their risk for AD, PMH nurses can play an important role in the health care of individuals and families experiencing AD.

    Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this EBP project was to align NG and OG tube placement and verification practices with evidence-based recommendations for children.
    Practice change: An evidence-based NG/OG Tube Placement Algorithm was developed. The algorithm provided an individualized approach based on patient condition as well as a tiered approach that incorporated radiographs, tube measurement and marking, and pH testing.
    Methods: A systematic appraisal of literature identified 40 studies supporting the development of the practice change. A 9-item questionnaire was administered to nurses across five pediatric units to assess current tube verification practices. Education was provided in participating units through a Competency Fair. Post-implementation evaluation included re-administering the practice survey and conducting a chart audit of NG/OG events occurring in the year following the practice change.
    Results: Seventy-one nurses completed the pre-implementation survey; 64 nurses completed the post-implementation survey. Strategies for checking NG/OG placement varied across units prior to implementation; however, auscultation was the most likely to be used strategy and assessing pH was the least likely to be used strategy across units. Post-implementation, aspiration and checking pH were the most frequently endorsed assessment strategy, and auscultation was the least endorsed strategy. The post-implementation chart audit revealed that 73% of NG/OG tubes were checked for placement on insertion with radiograph or aspirate pH.
    Conclusions: Implementation of an NG/OG Tube Placement Algorithm standardized NG/OG care across five pediatric units. Additional efforts are underway to further improve adherence to protocol in order to ensure safe, evidence-based practice for children with NG/OG tubes.

    Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine genetic variability and knee pain in persons with osteoarthritis (OA). Seventy-five participants with medial compartment knee OA were recruited from a large Midwestern tertiary care center. Participants exhibited a mean age of 56.3 years; females comprised 61% of the sample. Measures of pain included subjective pain intensity at rest and with movement, cutaneous mechanical sensation and pain testing, heat pain threshold, and pressure pain threshold. Seventy-four participants were genotyped for 25 genetic variants across 15 candidate genes for central or peripheral pain pathways. Analysis suggests a role for four genes (EDNRA, COMT, BDRKB1, and IL1B) in several components of pain in persons with knee OA. The results from this study will help guide the development and evaluation of tailored strategies to decrease pain, improve function, and prevent the development of new chronic pain syndromes in older adults experiencing OA.

    Abstract Aim: To review the quantitative evidence concerning the effects of non-pharmacological interventions on reducing apathy in persons with dementia.
    Background: Apathy, a prevalent behavioural symptom among persons with Alzheimer Disease, is defined as a disorder of motivation with deficits in behavioural, emotional and cognitive domains and is associated with serious social and physical obstacles. Non-pharmacological interventions show promise as symptom control modalities among persons with dementia.
    Design: Quantitative systematic review.
    Data sources: CINAHL, PubMed, PSYCHinfo and Cochrane Trials databases were searched for published English language research inclusive through December 2014, with no early year limiters set.
    Review methods: Comprehensive searches yielded 16 international randomized controlled trials or quasi-experimental studies based on inclusion criteria and a rigorous quality appraisal process.
    Results: A narrative summary analysis revealed that non-pharmacological interventions for apathy varied substantially and lacked specificity, conceptual clarity and were methodologically heterogeneous. Select interventions demonstrated effectiveness, but lacked systematic long-term follow-up. Limitations include publication bias and lack of a meta-analytic approach due to the methodological heterogeneity of included studies.
    Conclusion: Study results demonstrate promise for the use of non-pharmacological interventions, particularly music-based interventions, in reducing apathy levels in individuals with dementia. Intervening to reduce apathy may have a positive clinical impact and healthcare providers should be encouraged to incorporate positive sources of interest and intellectual stimulation into care. However, future research is needed to examine the aetiologic mechanism and predictors of apathy, to improve evidence-based interventions and specificity and to optimize dosage and timing of non-pharmacological interventions across the disease trajectory.

    Abstract Three genes with autosomal dominant mutations have been identified that may lead to Alzheimer symptoms in carriers before they reach age 60. Genetic tests exist for Alzheimer disease, but they are considered useful only for the small number of families with a history of early-onset illness. As researchers continue to uncover evidence of genetic links to Alzheimer disease, nurses can expect to field questions from family members about genetic testing. The article presents a variety of questions nurses may be asked, as well as possible answers.
