Contextualizing the Well-being of Asexual Youth: Evidence of Differences in Family, Health, and School Outcomes.

Despite increasing efforts to better understand sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY), asexual youth remain understudied. This study examines differences in health, family support, and school safety among asexual youth (n = 938) from a national study of SGMY (N = 17,112) ages 13-17. Compared to non-asexual youth, asexual youth were more likely to identify as transgender and report a disability, and less likely to identify as Black or Hispanic/Latino.

Measuring Sensitivity and Precision of Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS): Definition, Protocol and Demonstration for Clinical Relevance.

The ability of a Real Time Location System (RTLS) to provide correct information in a clinical environment is an important consideration in evaluating the effectiveness of the technology. While past efforts describe how well the technology performed in a lab environment, the performance of such technology has not been specifically defined or evaluated in a practice setting involving workflow and movement. Clinical environments pose complexity owing to various layouts and various movements.

Attitudes and Behavior of Health Care Workers Before, During, and After Implementation of Real-Time Location System Technology.

Objective: To assess how staff attitudes before, during, and after implementation of a real-time location system (RTLS) that uses radio-frequency identification tags on staff and patient identification badges and on equipment affected staff's intention to use and actual use of an RTLS.

Participants And Methods: A series of 3 online surveys were sent to staff at an emergency department with plans to implement an RTLS between June 1, 2015, and November 29, 2016. Each survey corresponded with a different phase of implementation: preimplementation, midimplementation, and postimplementation.

Preliminary Investigation of Civilian Clinician Perspectives & Just-in-Time Guidance for Tourniquet Use to "Stop the Bleed".

Objective: The American College of Surgeons (ACS) encourages clinicians to provide training to laypeople on tourniquet application. It is unclear whether clinicians are confident in their abilities and equipped with adequate knowledge, skills, and resources. This study aimed to determine surgical trainee knowledge and attitudes regarding tourniquet application and compare the effectiveness of instructions.
