Purpose: Communication difficulties are highly prevalent in the stroke population, with implications for patient experience, safety and outcomes. This study explores the experiences of people with aphasia and family members regarding healthcare communication in acute and subacute stroke settings.
Methods And Materials: A phenomenological approach was used to understand participants' experiences.
Background: We hypothesized that parturients who had general anesthesia as the initial anesthetic technique for cesarean deliveries performed for fetal heart rate abnormalities would have a lower fetal cord blood gas pH compared to parturients who had regional anesthesia as the initial anesthetic technique.
Methods: We searched our electronic medical record for patients who had cesarean deliveries for the indication of fetal heart rate abnormalities from July 1, 2019, to June 30, 2021, at our hospital. An obstetrics resident and a maternal fetal medicine physician determined if the fetal heart tracing was category 2 or 3.
The global energy transition is very resource intense, and scholarship is rapidly increasing to show its impacts in various resource extraction frontiers in the global South. These emerging studies are clarifying the social and environmental impacts of extracting particular energy transition resources (ETRs). However, there is still limited attention on the cumulative socioenvironmental impacts of extracting multiple ETRs from the same region.
