Effects of social influence and implementation climate and leadership on nurse-led early mobility behaviours in critical care.

Introduction: Early mobility (EM), initiating and advancing physical activity in the earliest days of critical illness, has been described as the most difficult component of the ABCDEF bundle to implement and coordinate. Successful implementation of EM in clinical practice requires multiple targeted implementation strategies.

Objective: Describe the associations of nurses' EM attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, intention, and implementation climate and leadership with self-reported and documented EM behaviour in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Occupational Therapy Interventions for Clients with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) in the Presence of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is often seen in clients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), primarily hypermobile EDS. Research has shown clients with EDS and POTS may experience limitations affecting not only their physical function, but also their social, emotional, and mental well-being. Using a client-centered approach, occupational therapy practitioners assess health, well-being, symptomatology (fatigue, muscle pain, dizziness, etc.

Transmission of cytomegalovirus in fresh and freeze-thawed mother's own milk to very preterm infants: a cohort study.

Objectives: The objectives of the study were to clarify: (i) the frequency of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) transmission, (ii) the association between the viral load in mother's own milk (MOM), the amount of fresh MOM and transmission, and (iii) the frequency of sepsis-like-symptoms (SLS) among infants born to seropositive mothers compared to infants born to seronegative mothers.

Study Design: This prospective cohort study enrolled very preterm infants (gestational age <32 weeks) from Denmark. Weekly samples of fresh MOM and urine were analyzed for HCMV-DNA.

Cytomegalovirus Transmitted From Mother's Own Milk to a Growth-Restricted Extremely Preterm Infant: A Case Report.

Background: Mother's own milk (MOM) is considered the optimal nutrition for preterm infants. Unfortunately, MOM can contain human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), which can be transmitted to the infants. Postnatal HCMV infection in very preterm infants can lead to organ failure.
