Current state and future recommendations for faculty in PhD in nursing programs.

In 2020 the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) Board of Directors appointed a 9-member task force to revise AACN's 2010 position statement, The Research-Focused Doctoral Program in Nursing: Pathways to Excellence, with the goal of developing a vision for research-focused doctoral programs and graduates. This resulted in 70 recommendations in a new AACN position statement, The Research-Focused Doctoral Program in Nursing: Pathways to Excellence (2022). The new document is based on a review of the literature from 2010 to 2021 and 2 inaugural surveys sent to deans and PhD students in nursing.

The AACN position statement on The Research-Focused Doctoral Program in Nursing: Pathways to Excellence was revised in 2022 by an AACN Task Force charged with creating a new vision for the PhD and similar programs in nursing. This document, which was informed by hundreds of academic nursing stakeholders, yields expectations and recommendations for PhD program curriculum, program evaluation, post-doctoral competencies, and resources. Results of an AACN 2021 survey indicated increased enrollment in PhD programs 2017-2000.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Future of Nursing Education.

Nursing is the largest health profession, with nearly 4 million providers practicing across acute, primary, and public health care settings. In response to the pandemic, nursing schools halted on-site course delivery and redesigned programs to attenuate risks to students and faculty. Key challenges faced by schools included financial cutbacks, rapid increases in online learning technology, maintaining student academic progression, disruption to clinical learning opportunities, and meeting accreditation standards, while addressing the stress and loss experienced by faculty, staff, and students.

Purpose: Explore the effect of routine disinfection of mobile communication devices (MCDs) in postanesthesia care unit (PACU).

Design: Experimental, repeated measures design.

Methods: At a 247-bed, 20-bed PACU hospital, Mid-Atlantic region, United States, mean baseline bacterial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) counts of six MCDs were established with 3M Clean-Trace Luminometer.

Apoptotic Activities of : Primary Human Keratinocytes, C-33A, and Human Papillomavirus HeLa Cervical Cancer Lines.

Background: Sanguinarine is a benzophenanthridine alkaloid derived from the root of . Multiple published, preclinical studies have demonstrated that sanguinarine causes apoptosis in human cancer cells. An expert panel of naturopathic doctors identified sanguinarine as a component for consideration in cervical atypia management protocols.

Visiting again? Subjective well-being of children in elementary school and repeated visits to school health nurses.

Background: Children with vague complaints are without chronic illness, and who repeatedly visit the school nurse may be at risk for limited academic success. This study compares student reports of subjective well-being between children who do and do not repeatedly visit the school nurse with vague complaints.

Methods: Children in grades 4 through 6 completed the School Well-Being Profile-American English (SWBP-AE), a questionnaire with 4 well-being subscales: health status, school environment, social relationships, and school as a means of self-fulfillment.

Naturopathic management of females with cervical atypia: a delphi process to explore current practice.

Background: Human papillomavirus is the most significant factor contributing to cervical cancer. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) implement an integrative approach to treat cervical atypia. This study explored practice consensus and variance among NDs.
