The purpose of this study was to explore how evidence-based practice recommendations for adults with depression were represented in two standardized nursing terminologies. A qualitative concept analysis was used to answer the research question. Concepts were extracted from the recommendations and matched to two standardized nursing terminologies through lexical and semantic concept mapping techniques. Study findings included variability in the lexical mapping to the standardized terminologies. The ability to map semantically was greater than lexical mapping, but the majority of these were partial matches. Findings also raised concerns about the potential for ambiguity of data retrieved when using standardized terminology.

Caring Futures Institute, College of Nursing and Health Sciences, Flinders University, Bedford Park, Australia.
Current understanding of changes in fluid distribution in response to the application of compression in primary lymphedema (PLE) is limited. This study measured fluid distribution before and after one application of standardized intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) in the lower limbs of people with PLE, compared with those without lymphedema. High-frequency ultrasound (HFU) was used to measure dermal fluid, bioimpedance to measure segmental fluid, and percent water content (PWC) to measure fluid at specific anatomical points.

Background: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation after breast cancer surgery has been utilized for various purposes, but the full efficacy of this treatment approach on postoperative symptoms remains unclear.
Aim: This study aimed to answer the question: Does transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation significantly impact postoperative patient outcomes in individuals undergoing breast cancer surgery?
Methods: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials was conducted. Because of the limited number of studies included, it was not feasible to perform a meta-analysis.
Improving skin screening capabilities for Veterans with spinal cord injuries.
J Spinal Cord Med
January 2025
Minneapolis Veterans Affairs Health Care System, Minneapolis, MN, USA.
Context: Clinical Practice Guidelines from the Consortium for Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Medicine recommend daily self-screening of at-risk skin surfaces, but many Veterans with SCI describe challenges using the standard issue long-handled self-inspection mirror (LSIM).
Objective: The objective of this project was to compare the LSIM to a recently developed camera-based self-inspection system (CSIS). User feedback guided iterative engineering to improve and develop the new technology in preparation for transfer to industry.
