Abstract:
Neonates at the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) are at high risk for procedural pain exposure. This study describes the type and frequency of procedures in neonates admitted to University Intensive Care Unit. This was a prospective cohort study of 150 neonates admitted to the NICU during the first 7 days of life at a governmental hospital. The type and frequency of procedures were evaluated using a tool which included the type and number of procedures performed per shift. A total of 14,008 painful procedures were performed on neonates with an average of 97.11 painful procedures per baby and 13.9/day for each baby. Adhesive removal (21.3%) was the most frequently performed procedure. The number of painful procedures was inversely correlated with gestation age ( p < .001) and birth weight ( p < .001). The number of painful procedures performed on neonates is high, particularly for neonates with small gestational age and low birth weight babies.

Abstract:
Syfte: Beskriva förberedande faktorer vilket kan ha betydelse vid smärtsamma procedurer på barn. Vidare var syftet att granska vilket urval de inkluderade artiklarna använt sig av. Metod: Beskrivande litteraturstudie. Litteraturstudien grundar sig på tjugotvå inkluderade artiklar. Tre stycken artiklar med kvalitativ ansats, sjutton stycken med kvantitativ ansats, samt två med både kvalitativ och kvantitativ ansats. Resultat: Fyra områden vilka kan ha betydelse vid smärtsamma procedurer på barn framkom. Distraktion: ett effektivt verktyg mot oro och ångest. Distraktionen hindrade inte sjuksköterskan vid den smärtsamma proceduren och var kostnadseffektiv. Föräldraroll och coping: Föräldrars stöd var viktigt för uppbyggnad av coping strategier inför och under den smärtsamma proceduren. Sjuksköterskans roll: Förberedelse och hantering av material inför den smärtsamma proceduren har betydelse för att hindra uppkomst av oro hos barnet. Sjuksköterskan ska kunna bemöta barnet utifrån dess kunskapsnivå och ålder. Farmakologisk omvårdnad: Läkemedel visar positiva resultat på smärta. Detta är ett komplement till omvårdnaden. Metodologisk aspekt: Deltagarna till de inkluderade studierna rekryterades via fyra olika urvalsmetoder. Slutsats: Förberedelser av barn inför smärtsamma procedurer inkluderar flera områden. Sjuksköterskans betydande roll inkluderar att ge information till barnet och hjälpa barnet att utveckla coping strategier. Distraktion kan vara ett bra hjälpmedel, lika så farmakologisk omvårdnad. Sjuksköterskan bör kunna se helheten i mötet med barn.
Objective: Describe preparatory factors which can be of importance during painful procedures on children. A further aim was to examine which method of selection the included articles had chosen. Method: Descriptive literature study. The literature study is based on twenty-two included articles. Three articles feature a qualitative design, seventeen a quantitative design, and two were based on a both a qualitative and quantitative design. Results: Four areas of importance which can be of importance during painful procedures on children were established. Distraction: An effective tool to combat worry and anxiety. Distraction did not hinder the nurse during the painful procedure and was cost effective. Parent influence and coping: Parental support was an invaluable tool to developing coping mechanisms while preparing for and undergoing the painful procedure. The role of the nurse: Preparation of the necessary equipment for the painful procedure is of importance to prevent the development of anxiety in the child. The nurse must be able to relate to the child based on the child´s level of understanding and age. Pharmacological nursing: Pharmaceuticals show positive results on pain. This is a complement to the care. Methodological aspect: Participants of the included case studies were chosen by four different methods of selection. Conclusion: Preparation of children for painful procedures includes several areas. The nurse has an important role which includes giving information to the child and helping the child develop coping strategies. Distraction can be a helpful tool as can pharmacological nursing. The nurse must be able to consider all aspects in the treatment of children.

Abstract:
Background. Maternal skin contact during a tissue breaking procedure lowers pain reactivity and enhances physiological recovery. It is uncertain if this comfort is derived solely from maternal presence or from stabilization of regulatory processes from direct skin contact. No studies have examined whether the contact or presence of a twin would have a similar comforting effect.Purpose. To compare the comfort effect of co-bedding by contrasting preterm twins who are co-bedding and those who are not on pain response during a tissue breaking procedure (heel lance). Methods. Following consent, 67 eligible twin sets, admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) were stratified in pairs by gestational age (≤ 31 6/7 weeks or  32 weeks) and site and then randomly assigned to a co-bedding group, n=36, (cared for in the same incubator or crib) or a standard care group, n=31, (cared for in a separate incubator or crib). Pain response was determined by physiologic and videotaped facial reaction in accordance with the Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP). Additional outcomes included physiologic time to recovery, alterations in salivary cortisol, heart rate variability, frequency of additional 24% sucrose doses required, and response of the co-twin. Sample size was calculated using a 2-sided alpha error of 0.05 and a power of 80 percent. Sixty four sets of twins or a total of 128 infants were needed to detect a difference of 1 point or greater change (SD 2.0) in the PIPP scores if such a difference is in fact caused by co-bedding. Analysis was based on the intention-to-treat principle and compared the means in the two groups before and after treatment and contrasted the mean difference between groups using 95 percent confidence intervals and a 2 sided P value of 0.05. Results. Mean PIPP scores were highest at 30 seconds post lance and not significantly different between the groups, 7.1 (SD 2.8) in the co-bedding group and 7.2 (SD 3.4) in the standard care group, P=0.91. Nor were they significantly different at 60 or 120 seconds. At 90 seconds, mean scores were higher in the co-bedding group, 6.0 (SD 3.0) vs. 5.0 (SD 1.8), P=0.04, [95% CI -1.99 to -0.02] in the standard care group. Recovery time post lance was over a minute shorter, M=75.6 seconds (SD 70.0), in the co-bedding condition compared to standard care, M=142.1 seconds (SD 138.1), P=0.001, mean difference of 64.5 seconds (95% CI. 25.6-103.3). No group differences were noted in baseline cortisol levels (0.36 ug/dl if assigned to receive co-bedding and 0.43 ug/dl in the standard group) while cortisol levels 20 minutes post lance were significantly lower in the co-bedding group, 0.28 ug/dl (SD 0.25) versus 0.50 ug/dl (SD 0.73). Similarly, mean change in cortisol from baseline was lower in the co-bedding group, -0.06 ug/dl compared to the standard care group, 0.14 ug/dl, P=0.05. Co-bedding infants were significantly less likely to receive any form of additional non-pharmacologic strategy (non-nutritive sucking, swaddling or facilitated tucking), 58.2% versus 95%, P<0.001. Heart variability, frequency of additional sucrose dosages, co-twin response and incidence of adverse events were not significantly different between the groups. Conclusions. The results of this randomized controlled trial provide evidence that co-bedding enhances physiologic recovery and diminishes the stress response of preterm twins undergoing heel lance in the NICU but did not lead to lower pain scores. Co-bedding did not decrease the frequency of additional 24% sucrose doses. Nor did co-bedding contribute to higher adverse effects for the twin undergoing heel lance or his/her co-twin.Clinical Trial Registry - NCT00917631
Introduction. Durant une procédure causant un dommage tissulaire, le contact de peau entre un bébé prématuré et sa mère diminue les réactions de douleur de celui-ci et l'aide à récupérer plus rapidement au niveau physiologique. Aucune étude n'a examiné si le contact ou la présence d'un jumeau prématuré pourrait avoir un effet réconfortant sur son jumeau. Objectif. Lors d'une procédure causant un dommage tissulaire (ponction au talon), comparer l'effet réconfortant du partage de lit entre jumeaux, le co-bedding, sur la réponse à la douleur en contrastant les bébés qui sont en co-bedding avec ceux qui ne le sont pas. Méthodes. Après avoir obtenu le consentement, 67 ensembles de jumeaux éligibles admis à l'unité des soins intensifs de néonatalogie furent stratifiés en pairs par âge gestationnel (≤ 31 6/7 semaines ou  32 semaines) et le site. Ceux-ci furent randomisés au groupe de co-bedding, n=36 ou au groupe de soins standards, n=31. La réponse douloureuse fut déterminée par les réactions physiologiques et faciales (captées par vidéo) en lien avec l'échelle de douleur Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP). Des résultats additionnels furent collectés tels que le temps de récupération physiologique, altérations du niveau de cortisol salivaire, variabilité du rythme cardiaque, nombre de doses de sucrose 24% administrées, ainsi que la réponse de l'autre jumeau. La taille de l'échantillon fut calculée en utilisant une marge d'erreur à 5% et une puissance de 80%. Soixante-quatre ensembles de jumeaux ou un total de 128 nourrissons étaient nécessaires pour détecter une différence de 1 point ou plus (écart type (ÉT) 2.0) du score PIPP afin de déterminer si ce changement est bel et bien dû au co-bedding. Les analyses furent basées sur le principe de l'intention-à-traiter et ont comparé les moyennes des deux groupes avant et après le traitement, ainsi que les différences moyennes en utilisant un niveau de confiance de 95% et une valeur bilatérale de P à 0.05. Résultats. Les moyennes des scores PIPP furent à leur plus haut 30 secondes suivant la ponction au talon et ne furent pas significativement différentes entre les deux groups, 7.1 (ÉT 2.8) pour le groupe co-bedding et 7.2 (ÉT 3.4) pour le groupe de soins standards, P=0.91. Ces scores ne furent pas significativement différents à 60 ou 120 secondes. À 90 secondes, les scores moyens furent plus élevés dans le groupe de co-bedding, 6.0 (ÉT 3.0) vs. 5.0 (ÉT 1.8), P=0.04, [CI -1.99 à -0.02] pour le groupe de soins standards. Le temps de récupération après la ponction au talon fut de plus de 1 minute, M=75.6 secondes (ÉT 70.0), pour le groupe en co-bedding comparativement au groupe en soins standards, M=142.1 secondes (ÉT 138.1), P=0.001, différence moyenne de 64.5 secondes (CI. 25.6-103.3). Aucune différence entre les groupes fut notée entre les niveaux de bases de cortisol.Les niveaux de cortisol 20 minutes après la ponction au talon furent significativement plus bas dans le groupe du co-bedding, 0.28 ug/dl (ÉT 0.25) versus 0.50 ug/dl (ÉT 0.73). Similairement, la moyenne du changement du niveau de base du cortisol était plus basse dans le groupe du co-bedding, -0.06 ug/dl et 0.14 ug/dl, pour le groupe de soins standards, P=0.05. Les bébés en co-bedding ont eu moins tendance à recevoir des traitements non-pharmacologiques additionnels (succion avec tétine, enveloppement toucher), soit 58.2% versus 95%, P<0.001. La variabilité du rythme cardiaque, la fréquence de doses additionnelles de sucrose, la réponse de l'autre jumeau, ainsi que l'incidence d'événements néfastes ne furent pas significativement différentes entre les deux groupes. Conclusions. Les résultats de cette étude contrôlée randomisée démontrent que le co-bedding entre jumeaux prématurés accroît leur récupération physiologique et diminue leur réponse de stress lors d'une ponction au talon mais sans mener à une réduction de leurs scores de douleur.

Abstract:
Huntington disease (HD) is a degenerative neurological disease that typically onsets in midlife. It leads to progressively severe impairment in cognitive, behavioral, and motor function and premature death. Persons who test positive for the HD gene expansion know they will develop the disease. Research indicates changes are detectable several years before onset. Thus, HD has a long prodromal period (prHD). While researchers are aware of changes, little is known whether persons with prHD or their companions notice changes, or how they make sense of and cope with them. Leventhal and colleagues developed the Common Sense Model of Illness Representation (CSM) to describe how people make sense of illness. According to the CSM, people notice somatic changes, form illness representations, select coping procedures and evaluate them, and reappraise illness representations in an iterative process. The CSM has been used to explore illness representations in a variety of illnesses, including diagnosed HD. The authors of the model state it is also applicable in anticipated illness but this assertion has not been adequately tested. The purpose of this thesis was to use the CSM to explore and describe illness representations in persons with prHD and their companions. The results of this exploration are presented in three papers. The first paper, presented in Chapter 2, was a preliminary study based on interview data from 8 persons and 7 companions. Results of this analysis indicated persons with prHD and companions noticed and made attributions for changes, suggesting they formed illness representations. However, they were unsure whether some changes were related to HD. Results were considered preliminary because participants were not directly asked to make attributions. Data were also limited to changes in work function and the sample size was small. In the next two papers, 23 couples were interviewed. The purpose of the second paper, presented in Chapter 3, was to explore illness representations in persons with prHD and their companions and evaluate the usefulness of the CSM in anticipated illness using prHD as a model. Results supported preliminary findings: Participants noticed changes, made attributions, used coping strategies and evaluated them. Again, they unsure whether some changes were related to HD. Other elements of the CSM were partially supported by the data. The third paper, presented in Chapter 4, used quantitative and qualitative methods to explore coping in persons with prHD and companions. Participants were asked open-ended questions about how they coped with changes and were also verbally administered the Brief COPE scale. Both quantitative and qualitative data showed participants used active coping, acceptance, planning, and social support. Participants rarely used denial or substance abuse. Persons with prHD used more coping strategies than companions. Three major themes from the qualitative interview were identified: trying to fix it, can't fix it, and not broken yet. Qualitative interviews revealed some coping strategies that the Brief COPE did not measure. Findings from these papers may inform interventions to help people with prHD and companions cope with changes. Persons with prHD and companions might benefit from knowing what changes might be related to HD in order to cope more effectively.

Abstract:
There has been a growing concern raised by nurse educators regarding the potential for litigation by nursing students who are dissatisfied with educators' appraisal of these students' clinical performance. A descriptive survey using a cross-sectional design was used to assess the relationships between institutional policies and procedures related to student clinical evaluation practices and the incidence of student grievances and appeals of faculty decisions. Population for this survey was diploma and basic baccalaureate nursing programs in Canada (N=94). The response rate to this survey was 86.2% (81/94 programs). Data were obtained using two self-developed questionnaires which tested for support of two prototypic models derived from literature reviewed. Variables studied included the decision-makers' location (educational institution, hospital), their role or position, their functions, and the guidelines under which they performed student evaluations. Also studied were mechanisms available to students to question the decision. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Reliability of the data from the administrative practices instrument was assessed using contingency tables which compared the program's reported data to its written policies and procedures. The level of agreement was approximately .50 which was considered adequate bearing in mind the frequent discrepancies between policies and procedures in most institutions.. There were five significiant findings, these being: (1) there exists a lack of faculty evaluation standards when evaluating students in clinical settings, (2) in one-third of the programs a clinical instructor alone makes a student's clinical decision, (3) it appears that in some programs the same members serve on more than one level of review panels, (4) procedures employed in the conducting of informal and formal hearings are rarely written, and (5) grievance and appeal panels tend to alter professional judgments of nurse faculty even though panel members frequently are non-nurses.

Abstract:
Hospice services are utilized by more than 1.6 million people yearly, and there are a great number of caregivers who are tasked with caring for these individuals at home. Caregivers are at risk for fatigue, burnout, and decline in their own physical and mental health. While the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) cover costs of temporary respite care for hospice patients, the caregivers' needs for respite care are often unrecognized and unaddressed. The purpose of this project was to plan a respite program within the hospice agency consisting of revised respite policy and procedures, the Caregiver Reaction Assessment (CRA) tool to routinely assess the caregiver for burnout and/or fatigue, and a detailed outline for the implementation of respite care. Anderson's behavioral model of service was used to guide the project's understanding of the underutilization of respite services. This project was guided by the practice-focused question examining the development of an evidence based caregiver respite program within the hospice agency. The program was developed based on a review of peer reviewed research studies and the input of a project team of local experts. The project team participated in the project that created a respite policy which includes a biweekly caregiver assessment and step-by-step directions on how to implement respite care. A final report was developed and submitted to the Hospice agency. This revised policy and procedure includes a blueprint for implementation and a full set of recommendations on the process, use of the CRA, educational in-services, and evaluative methods. These recommendations have the potential for positive social change by increasing patient and caregiver outcomes, serving as an example for other hospice agencies to follow, and improving care at the end of life.

Abstract:
Background: Medication errors continue to be one of the most prevalent problems in healthcare related to patient safety, often resulting in injury or death, with higher incidences of error occurring with intravenous medications. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of deliberate practice (DP) with second-degree nursing students in developing and maintaining fundamental intravenous medication management practices required for safe practice. Method: This was a feasibility study using a two-arm, single-blind, randomized controlled trial design. Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development model was used to explore the use of a DP teaching intervention to achieve competency in skills associated with safe IV medication management. A convenience sample of first-year, first-semester nursing students enrolled in an accelerated graduate program (N = 32) were invited to participate; 19 enrolled, and 12 completed the study. Students (n = 12) received three 30- minute one-on-one practice sessions at 2-week intervals with an expert nurse (the intervention group focused on IV skills and the control group on skills unrelated to IVs). Pre- and post-intervention instruments tested participants’ confidence with IV management and safety skills. The primary outcome was their ability to safely administer and monitor IV medications during a 20-minute videotaped medication administration scenario. Results: Low recruitment (19 of 32) and high attrition (37%) were observed. Participants completing the study (5 in the intervention group and 7 in the control group) reported that the time required to attend the sessions was not burdensome (91.7%); time allotted was adequate (100%); 100% reported positive experience; 91.7% found the DP sessions essential to learning. Change in confidence scores for IV skills were not significant (P = 0.210), but were higher in the intervention group (2.97–4.14 = 1.50 change) compared to the control group (2.71–3.77 = 1.04 change). Significant differences were found in overall medication administration skills between the control and intervention groups (t [-2.302], p = 0.044) in favor of the intervention group, particularly with medication preparation skills (p = 0.039). Overall raw scores were low in both groups; only 16–42 (26%–70%) of the total 60 steps required for safe practice were completed. Participants scored lowest in the evaluation phase, with all participants performing less than 50% of the 14 steps. Conclusion: Even though participant satisfaction was high, significant attrition occurred. Students reported the DP sessions to be beneficial and they felt more confident in performing skills, but three 30-minute sessions (90 minutes) were not adequate to develop, maintain, or refine all the IV-management skills associated with safe medication practices. Determining the length and duration of DP sessions as well as comparing the efficacy of DP sessions between individual and group sessions with varying doses and frequencies is needed to advance our understanding of using DP within nursing education.

Abstract:
Studies have shown that the use of virtual reality devices (VR) as exposure therapy resources tend to produce favorable effects on the homeodynamic balance of patients with different diseases. The sensory and sensory-motor stimuli experienced through interaction with such technologies are able to promote, for instance, relief of pain intensity, stress levels reduction and reduced risks of hypertension syndrome in blood pressure tests. Thus, the emerging body of studies about the design, validation and development procedures of such ambiences is extremely fruitful and relevant, especially regarding their consistent contributions to the biological homeostasis of human beings. In this sense, this research aims to model humanized and homeodynamic hospital VR environments for nursing professionals of the Center for Integral Care to Women (CAISM-UNICAMP), capable of reducing their stress levels resulting from physical and mental overload, to which these professionals are daily exposed in the hospital settings, and further increased by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For this, the study starts from the mapping and identification of design parameters of humanized hospital environments, both through literature systematic review on transdisciplinary cooperation (e.g. between humanized hospital environments, intelligent biointerfaces and virtual reality), and data collected in field research (e.g. collection of architectural data, design, and observation of professionals’ routine and semi-structured interviews with the healthcare team, before and after the experimental protocol application). The design and conception of these virtual environments are based on the cooperation between the fields of Architecture and Cognitive and Behavioral Neurosciences, especially subsidized by the concept of Homeodynamic Environments and Products. In addition, the investigation is also based on literature reviews about the use of VR in healthcare; a set of recommendations for conducting clinical studies using VR; exploration of VR soundscapes to reduce stress levels in hospitalized patients; and guidelines for conducting usability assessments for health-related VR applications for patient treatment, rehabilitation, and medical professional training. The tests and validation of the humanized and homeodynamic ambiences modeled are conducted with the nursing professionals of CAISM-UNICAMP, with the organization of participants in experimental and control groups. Such interventions are also associated and synchronized with the performance of intelligent biointerfaces, in order to collect consistent neuropsychophysiological data, performed during the immersion of the research subjects in the simulated environments. Thus, the results of this research aim to contribute to the reduction of stress levels of CAISM-UNICAMP nursing professionals, both in pandemic and post-pandemic context.

Abstract:
Background: Incompatible sanitation hygiene practice during food processing in hos­pitals is possible due to optimism bias. This bias occurs when food handlers perceive that they are unlikely to cause foodborne illness. There is a lack of studies into this phe­nomenon. This study aimed to analyze knowledge, attit­u­d­e, and practice of sanitation hygiene and the optimistic bias of food handlers and their relationship with participation in food safety training. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in April to May, 2019. A sample consisting of all food handlers during the preparation, processing, and serving of food was taken at a hospital in Yogyakarta. Sample data on participation in food safety training, knowledge and attitude toward hygiene and sanitation, and optimis­tic bias, were collected by face-to-face interview using questionnaire and obser­vation. Know­ledge, attitude and practice with a score of more than 70% was categorized as good. The dependent variable was optimistic bias. The independent variable was attending food safety training. The data were tested by Student t. Result: Study subjects had good food safety knowledge, attitude and practices with mean scores of 72.4%, 71.2%, and 97.6%, respectively. Knowledge on sources of conta­mi­na­tion was low (25%). More than 50% of food handlers were talking while their worked. The food handlers perceived themselves as less likely to cause a foodborne disease, demon­strating the tendency of an optimistic bias. Food handlers who part­ici­pated in training (Mean= 6.40; SD= 2.56) perceived themselves at higher risk than the un­trained counterparts (Mean= 5.25; SD= 4.42), but this difference was statis­ti­cally non-significant (p= 0.454). Conclusion: Food handlers have good knowledge, attitude, and practice, but they tend to demonstrate optimistic bias with may cause ignorant of food safety procedure. The optimistic bias must be redressed to improve awareness toward food safety procedure.

Abstract:
Background Opioid analgesia has become the mainstay for acute pain management in the postoperative setting. However, the use of opioid medications comes with significant risks and side effects. Due to increasing numbers of prescriptions to those with chronic pain, opioid medications have become more expensive while becoming less effective due to the buildup of patient tolerance. The idea of opioid-free analgesic techniques has rarely been breached in many hospitals. Emerging research has shown that opioid-sparing approaches have resulted in lower reported pain scores across the board, as well as significant cost reductions to hospitals and insurance agencies. In addition to providing adequate pain relief, the predicted cost burden of an opioid-free or opioid-sparing approach is significantly less than traditional methods. Methods The following groups were considered in our inclusion criteria: those who speak the English language, all races and ethnicities, male or female, home medications, those who are at least 18 years of age and able to provide written informed consent, those undergoing inpatient or same-day surgical procedures. In addition, our scoping review includes the following exclusion criteria: those who are non-English speaking, those who are less than 18 years of age, those who are not undergoing surgical procedures while admitted, those who are unable to provide numeric pain score due to clinical status, those who are unable to provide written informed consent, and those who decline participation in the study. Data was extracted by one reviewer and verified by the remaining two group members. Extraction was divided as equally as possible among the 11 listed references. Discrepancies in data extraction were discussed between the article reviewer, project editor, and group leader. Results We identified nine primary sources addressing the use of ketamine as an alternative to opioid analgesia and post-operative pain control. Our findings indicate a positive correlation between perioperative ketamine administration and postoperative pain control. While this information provides insight on opioid-free analgesia, it also revealed the limited amount of research conducted in this area of practice. The strategies for several of the clinical trials limited ketamine administration to a small niche of patients. The included studies provided evidence for lower pain scores, reductions in opioid consumption, and better patient outcomes. Implications for Nursing Practice Based on the results of the studies’ randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses, the effects of ketamine are shown as an adequate analgesic alternative to opioids postoperatively. The cited resources showed that ketamine can be used as a sole agent, or combined effectively with reduced doses of opioids for multimodal therapy. There were noted limitations in some of the research articles. Not all of the cited studies were able to include definitive evidence of proper blinding techniques or randomization methods. Small sample sizes and the inclusion of specific patient populations identified within several of the studies can skew data in one direction or another; therefore, significant clinical results cannot be generalized to patient populations across the board.

Abstract:
Background/Purpose: Post-operative delirium leads to significant morbidity in elderly patients, yet there is no regimen to prevent POD. Opioid use in the elderly surgical population is of the most significant risk factors for developing POD. The purpose of this scoping review is to recognize that Dexmedetomidine mitigates cognitive dysfunction secondary to acute pain and the use of narcotic analgesia by decreasing the amount of norepinephrine (an excitatory neurotransmitter) released during times of stress. This mechanism of action also provides analgesia through decreased perception and modulation of pain. Methods: The authors developed eligibility criteria for inclusion of articles and performed a systematic search of several databases. Each of the authors initially selected five articles for inclusion in the scoping review. We created annotated literature tables for easy screening by co-authors. After reviewing the annotated literature table four articles were excluded, leaving 11 articles for inclusion in the scoping review. There were six level I meta-analysis/systematic reviews, four level II randomized clinical trials, and one level IV qualitative research article. Next, we created a data-charting form on Microsoft Word for extraction of data items and synthesis of results. Results: Two of the studies found no significant difference in POD between dexmedetomidine groups and control groups. The nine remaining studies noted decreases in the rate, duration, and risk of POD in the groups receiving dexmedetomidine either intraoperatively or postoperatively. Multiple studies found secondary benefits in addition to decreased POD, such as a reduction of tachycardia, hypertension, stroke, hypoxemia, and narcotic use. One study, however, found that the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia were increased among the elderly population. Implications for Nursing Practice: Surgery is a tremendous stressor in any age group, but especially the elderly population. It has been shown postoperative delirium occurs in 17-61% of major surgery procedures with 30-40% of the cases assumed to be preventable. Opioid administration in the elderly surgical population is one of the most significant risk factors for developing POD. With anesthesia practice already leaning towards opioid-free and opioid-limited anesthetic, the incorporation of dexmedetomidine could prove to be a valuable resource in both reducing opioid use and POD in the elderly surgical population. Although more research is needed, the current evidence is promising.

Abstract:
Purpose/Background Central venous catheters (CVC) are typical for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Due to the invasiveness of this procedure, there is a high risk for central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). These infections have been known to increase mortality and morbidity, medical costs, and reduce hospital reimbursements. Evidenced-based interventions were grouped to assemble a central line bundle to decrease the number of CLABSIs and improve patient outcomes. This scoping review will evaluate the literature and examine the association between reduced CLABSI rates and central line bundle care implementation or current use. Methods A literature review was completed of nine critically appraised articles from the years 2010-2021. The association of the use of central line bundles and CLABSI rates was examined. These relationships were investigated to determine if the adherence to a central line bundle directly reduced the number of CLABSI rates in critically ill adult patients. A summary evaluation table was composed to determine the associations related to the implementation or current central line bundle care use. Results Of the study sample (N=9), all but one demonstrated a significant decrease in CLABSI rates when a central line bundle was in place. A trend towards reducing CLABSI was noted in the remaining article, a randomized controlled study, but the results were not significantly different. In all the other studies, a meta-analysis, randomized controlled trial, control trial, cohort or case-control studies, and quality improvement project, there was a significant improvement in CLABSI rates when utilizing a central line bundle. The extensive use of different levels of evidence provided an excellent synopsis that implementing a central line bundle care would directly affect decreasing CLABSI rates. Implications for Nursing Practice Results provided in this scoping review afforded the authors a diverse level of evidence that using a central line bundle has a direct outcome on reducing CLABSI rates. This practice can be implemented within the hospital setting as suggested by the literature review to prevent or reduce CLABSI rates. Implementing a standard central line bundle care hospital-wide helps avoid this hospital-acquired infection.
