The Role of Pediatric Nurses During Preventable Adverse Event Disclosure: A Scoping Review.

Objectives: Preventable adverse events (PAEs) occur across the healthcare spectrum; and, unfortunately, errors, adverse events, and PAEs are common in pediatric care. Historically, the role of disclosure of PAEs to patients and their families occurred between the dyad of physician and patient, with physicians assuming the responsibility of disclosure. In recent years, a trend toward a multidisciplinary team-based approach has emerged in some institutions, yet the role of pediatric nurses within the team disclosing a PAE is not fully understood.

The Effects of Moral Distress on Resilience in Pediatric Emergency Department Nurses.

Introduction: Moral distress is widespread in health care, and nurses working in high-pressure environments, such as emergency departments, experience stress at high rates. Understanding how moral distress affects pediatric emergency nursing care is essential to moderate its negative impacts. Increased resilience has been promoted as a tool to mitigate moral distress.

Improving Use of Antibiotics for Pediatric Pneumonia in Community Hospital Emergency Departments.

Background And Objectives: The majority of pediatric patients present to community-hospital emergency departments (EDs). Pneumonia is among the most common reasons for ED visits; however, prescribing narrow-spectrum antibiotics occurs at rates below established best practices. We sought to increase prescription of narrow-spectrum antibiotics for pediatric pneumonia in 5 community hospital EDs using an interdisciplinary learning collaborative.

Efficacy of feeding hydroxy-selenomethionine on plasma and milk selenium in mid-lactation dairy cows.

In this study, we aimed to determine the amount of Se transferred to milk and blood of mid- to late-lactation dairy cows when supplemental Se from hydroxy-selenomethionine (OH-SeMet) was fed compared with an unsupplemented group and a group supplemented with a seleno-yeast (SY). Twenty-four lactating Holstein cows (178 ± 43 d in milk) were used in a complete randomized block design for 91 d (7-d covariate period and 84-d treatment period). Treatments were (1) basal diet with an analyzed Se background of 0.
