June 2019 Plenary 09:00 - 10:00 Room 1: Plenary Room Plenary 1 - Beyond Healthcare to health The nursing and midwifery health work force comprise almost 50% of the world’s healthcare providers globally, yet we face severe shortfalls in an aging population. We must move from systems that are focused on disease to systems that place the person at the centre of care. Nurses are expert at being able to provide person-centred and innovative care delivery, while turning policy into practice and keeping safety at the forefront. Nurses are key stakeholders in implementing and achieving real change. We wear many hats and have many roles in the provision of healthcare, some shared by other professions, but nursing is UNIQUE because of its scale and their strong connection with the people and the local communities which gives them a great deal of influence. WHO is collaborating with the International Council of Nurses and the Nursing Now Campaign to produce the first ever State of the World’s Nurses 2020 Report. This will provide a global picture of the nursing workforce using validated data and provide guidance for countries that want to optimize this most valuable resource.

Nurse A British nurse caring for a baby in 2006 Occupation Names Nurse Occupation type Healthcare professional Activity sectors Nursing, Health care Description Competencies Caring for general well-being of patients Education required Qualifications in terms of statutory regulations according to national, state, or provincial legislation in each country Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing. Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the U.S. (and increasingly the United Kingdom), advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations.

  • Study Protocol and Statistical Analysis Plan
    The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas Institutional Review Board PROJECT SUMMARY Study Title: Ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block versus periarticular infiltration for pain management after total hip arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial Principal Investigator: Irina Gasanova, MD Sponsor/Funding Source: Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Management, UT Southwestern Medical School IRB Number: STU 122015-022 NCT Number: NCT02658240 Date of Document: 01 April 2016 Page 1 of 7 Purpose: In this randomized, controlled, observer-blinded study we plan to evaluate ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block with ropivacaine and periarticular infiltration with ropivacaine for postoperative pain management after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Background: Despite substantial advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of pain and availability of newer analgesic techniques, postoperative pain is not always effectively treated (1). Optimal pain management technique balances pain relief with concerns about safety and adverse effects associated with analgesic techniques. Currently, postoperative pain is commonly treated with systemic opioids, which are associated with numerous adverse effects including nausea and vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, pruritus, urinary retention, and respiratory depression (2). Use of regional and local anesthesia has been shown to reduce opioid requirements and opioid-related side effects. Therefore, their use has been emphasized (3, 4, 5, 6). Fascia Iliaca compartment block (FICB) is a field block that blocks the nerves from the lumbar plexus supplying the thigh (i.e., lateral femoral cutaneous femoral and obturator nerves). The obturator nerve is sometimes involved in the FICB but probably plays little role in postoperative pain relief for most surgeries of the hip and proximal femur.

We report on a 4.1 kg, 85-day-male infant with a thyroglossal duct cyst at the tongue base who could not be conventionally ventilated and intubated in the supine position. The infant was intubated with a 3-mm endotracheal tube through the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) with guidance of a fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB). However, the pilot balloon did not pass through the 1.5-mm LMA conduit. After cutting the pilot balloon, we removed the LMA and inserted a central venous catheter guide-wire through the endotracheal tube to increase the endotracheal tube to 3.5 mm. This maneuver allowed us to secure the airway without further problems.

  • Nursing in the Military the Profession of Alleviating the Suffering Of
    Nursing in the Military The profession of alleviating the suffering of wounded and dying soldiers is as old as warfare itself. Our modern definition of nursing however started with Florence Nightingale on October 21, 1854 during the Crimean War when Nightingale together with she and a contingent of 38 volunteer women were dispatched to Turkey to the aid of wounded British soldiers. Nightingale¶s work later inspired nurses in the American Civil War, during which time, more than 5,000 women served as nurses on the battlefronts. With their contribution, they and their service helped to pave the way for women in professional medicine after the war. The history of women in the military began with the U.S. Army Nurse Corps in 1901. Duty Military nurses perform all the duties of a traditional nurse both during but are times of war and peace. They are also usually entrusted with a wider range of responsibilities than nurses in a civilian environment. In fact, a military nurse can be classified as active duty, reserve, or hired as a civilian employee. The tour of duty for an active or reserve nurse serving in the military requires a long-term commitment. It is common for military nurses to be sent abroad or into service at a combat hospital. Conversely, for civilian employees, the length of time depends on the contract. Ideally, active and reserve duty nurses in the military require experience in critical care, operating room, and trauma. Most are registered nurses with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree and enter into service as officers.
