The Feasibility and Outcome of Integra® Bilayer Matrix in the Reconstruction of Oral Cavity Defects.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and failure rate of Integra® Bilayer Wound Matrix (Integra) in the reconstruction of oral cavity defects.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: All study information was collected from a single academic tertiary care hospital.

Management of Complicated Nasal Defects.

The nose is the most common site for nonmelanoma skin cancer. Fortunately, most skin cancer lesions on the nose are discovered early and their timely diagnosis and excision result in superficial defects that can be reconstructed with minimal impact on the aesthetics and function. Reconstruction of full-thickness defects of the nose remains a challenging endeavor for reconstructive surgeons.

Expanding a Foot Care Education Program for Nurses: A Quality Improvement Survey.

Faculty of a foot care continuing education program in the Midwest sought to determine current practice and interest in expanding the current program, both didactic and clinical, to meet expanded requirements in certification criteria. An electronic e-mail survey with both quantitative and qualitative questions was developed and sent to 445 past participants who completed the Foot and Nail Care: Education for Nurses Program hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Continuing Education over the past 5 years. There were 99 responses for a response rate of 22%.

Collaborating for Competency-A Model for Single Electronic Health Record Onboarding for Medical Students Rotating among Separate Health Systems.

Background: Use of the electronic health record (EHR) is widespread in academic medical centers, and hands-on EHR experience in medical school is essential for new residents to be able to meaningfully contribute to patient care. As system-specific EHR training is not portable across institutions-even when the same EHR platform is used-students rotating across health systems are often required to spend time away from clinical training to complete each system's, often duplicative, EHR training regardless of their competency within the EHR.

Methods: We aimed to create a single competency-based Epic onboarding process that would be portable across all the institutions in which our medical students complete clinical rotations.

Tongue retaining devices for obstructive sleep apnea: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: Tongue Retaining Devices (TRD) anteriorly displace the tongue with suction forces while patients sleep. TRD provide a non-surgical treatment option for patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Our objective was to conduct a systematic review of the international literature for TRD outcomes as treatment for OSA.
