Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop an Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation (SBAR) fall simulation program for Korean nursing students and to evaluate its effectiveness.
Methods: This study used a single-blind randomized control pretest-posttest design. The 54 nursing students in their third semester at a college in Korea were selected through convenience sampling (SBAR group 26, handoff group 28). The SBAR-based program was provided to the experimental group, while the general handoff-based program was given to the control group. The program was designed for a total of three sessions each and no more than 120 minutes each. Measurement variables included the knowledge, skill, attitude, communication ability, and its clarity related to falls. The data were analyzed with x test, t test, and repeated measures of ANOVA using the SPSS 18.0 program.
Results: The SBAR group showed the improved fall-related skill and communication clarity compared with the handoff group. There was a significant difference in the fall-related knowledge only in a time-dependent manner before and after intervention, while there was no statistically significant difference in the attitude and communication ability related to falls.
Conclusions: SBAR-based simulation program revealed positive results in terms of patient safety of nursing college students compared with the general handoff-based method. Therefore, the SBAR-based simulation program is expected to be used as an educational intervention for nursing students not only to improve abilities in reporting and communication but to prevent or handle patient safety accidents efficiently.

Neuroinflammation immediately follows the onset of ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery. During this process, microglial cells are activated in and recruited to the penumbra. Microglial cells can be activated into two different phenotypes: M1, which can worsen brain injury; or M2, which can aid in long-term recovery.

A reasonable construction of hollow structures to obtain high-performance absorbers is widely studied, but it is still a challenge to select suitable materials to improve the low-frequency attenuation performance. Here, the FeO@C@NiO nanoprisms with unique tip shapes, asymmetric multi-path hollow cavity, and core-shell heteroepitaxy structure are designed and synthesized based on anisotropy and intrinsic physical characteristics. Impressively, by changing the load of NiO, the composites achieve strong absorption, broadband, low-frequency absorption: the reflection loss of -55.

Top badminton players must carefully schedule tournaments to perform well and improve their rankings. This study examines how players plan their tournament participation and whether their scheduling strategies affect their rankings and performance, especially during Olympic and non-Olympic years. Data were extracted from the Badminton World Federation (BWF) ranking system for the top 50 men's and women's singles players from May 2014 to May 2019.

The peer-reviewed literature on the adjustment or curving of assessments in health profession programs is almost non-existent. This communication aims to present potential methods of grade adjustment for individual questions or entire assessments. Simulated data for a 25-item assessment were used as an example to analyze the effects of different methods of grade adjustment on students' scores.
