Current Trends in Nursing II

3.4K
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.2K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Abdominal Aorta01:25

Abdominal Aorta

2.2K
Once the aorta traverses the diaphragmatic plane at the aortic hiatus, it is known as the abdominal aorta. This anatomical structure is positioned leftward of the spinal column, encased within a cocoon of adipose tissue behind the peritoneal cavity. It terminates at the L4 vertebra, where it splits into the common iliac arteries. Prior to this bifurcation, the abdominal aorta gives rise to several vital branches.
The celiac trunk, a singular artery, divides into the left gastric artery, which...

Trends in Lattice Energy: Ion Size and Charge02:54

Trends in Lattice Energy: Ion Size and Charge

26.6K
An ionic compound is stable because of the electrostatic attraction between its positive and negative ions. The lattice energy of a compound is a measure of the strength of this attraction. The lattice energy (ΔHlattice) of an ionic compound is defined as the energy required to separate one mole of the solid into its component gaseous ions. For the ionic solid sodium chloride, the lattice energy is the enthalpy change of the process:

Electrical Current01:10

Electrical Current

6.9K
Electrical current is defined as the rate at which charge flows. When there is a large current present, such as that used to run a refrigerator, a large amount of charge moves through the wire in a small amount of time. If the current is small, such as that used to operate a handheld calculator, a small amount of charge moves through the circuit over a long period of time. The SI unit for current is the ampere (A), named for the French physicist André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836).

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Workforce Analysis
  • Transplant Surgery Demographics

Background:

  • Concerns exist regarding transplant surgical workforce challenges and job opportunities for new fellows.
  • The American Society of Transplant Surgeons (ASTS) Membership and Workforce Committee identified a need to assess current workforce dynamics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize current practice patterns of transplant centers.
  • To estimate future changes in the transplant surgical workforce over the next three years.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to 235 identified transplant centers by the ASTS Membership and Workforce Committee.
  • The questionnaire gathered data on transplant programs, surgeons, and projected staffing changes.
  • Seventy-one centers (30.2% response rate) provided data for analysis.

Main Results:

  • The recruitment outlook predicts a positive surgeon inflow at a 2:1 rate (incoming:leaving) over the next three years.
  • The proportion of female transplant surgeons has significantly increased, rising from 3.7% in 1980 to 18.4% in 2010.
  • Currently, 13.1% of practicing US transplant surgeons in the survey cohort are female, exceeding rates in many other surgical specialties.

Conclusions:

  • The study indicates a positive job recruitment outlook for transplant surgeons.
  • A notable narrowing of the gender gap within the transplant surgical workforce has been observed.
