In 2004, The George Washington University received funding from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to develop a web-based emergency preparedness course for nurses. The purpose of the course was to provide training that would be accessible regardless of work setting or location. In designing the course, the development team used algorithmic decision making as a conceptual framework to transcend the linear, didactic focus of traditional online preparedness training to provide learners with a learning experience crafted around the decision-making process. This article describes the design of the algorithmic practice maps underlying this course and provides a replicable structure for those interested in developing similar offerings for nurses.

Multiple myeloma is a hematologic malignancy characterized by the proliferation of abnormal plasma cells in the bone marrow. Despite therapeutic advancements, there remains a critical need for reliable, noninvasive methods to monitor multiple myeloma. Circulating plasma cells (CPCs) in peripheral blood are robust and independent prognostic markers, but their detection is challenging due to their low abundance.

Objective: Spinal fusion is a commonly performed surgical procedure used to relieve pain, deformity, and instability of various spinal pathologies. Although there have been attempts to standardize spinal fusion assessment radiologically, there is currently no unified definition that also considers clinical symptomology. This review attempts to create a more holistic and standardized definition of spinal fusion.
