Attitudes toward the American Cancer Society's 2020 cervical cancer screening guidelines: A qualitative study of a national sample of US clinicians.

Background: The 2020 American Cancer Society (ACS) guidelines are the most recent national guidelines for cervical cancer screening. These guidelines propose two major changes from current practice: initiating screening at age 25 years and using primary human papillomavirus (HPV) testing. Adoption of guidelines often occurs slowly, and therefore understanding clinician attitudes is important to facilitate practice change.

Accuracy and Interrater Agreement of Registered Nurses' Assignment of Apgar Scores to Standardized Clinical Vignettes.

The purpose of our study was to test whether registered nurses assign the correct Apgar score when provided all pertinent data, whether they assign an Apgar score even if all pertinent data are not provided, and to evaluate the Apgar score's interrater agreement. We conducted a REDCap survey and provided nurses with color photograph/vignette combinations of neonates, some of which lacked pertinent data points needed to correctly assign Apgar scores. Over 90% of study participants assigned Apgar scores even if data points for heart rate or respiratory effort were omitted.
