Nursing Grand Rounds February 13th - All Welcome
by Diana McMillan 06 Feb '24

06 Feb '24

Extending a warm welcome to you and your colleagues to join us at the Catalysts for Care 2024 Nursing Grand Rounds Speaker Series! [Date: February 13th, 2024, 12:00 - 1:00 pm, ZOOM presentation. Presenter: Emily Phillips, RN, MN, PhD(C), CCN(C), Vanier Scholar, Applied Health Sciences, University of Manitoba & Cardiac Sciences, Winnipeg Regional Health Authority Title: Early mobility to improVE health outcomes following cardiac surgery (EVE) Clinical Feasibility Trial Development.] [A person with long curly hair smiling Description automatically generated] https://ca01web.zoom.us/j/61300054714?pwd=Y2MyODFEZmU3aGxLemlOSTRLcjFhQT09 Meeting ID: 613 0005 4714 Passcode: 594642 For cardiac surgery (CS) patients, mobilization within the first 24 hours post-operatively supports improved physical health outcomes. Early mobility, whether via ambulation or cycle ergometer, is safe for CS patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), with studies reporting minimal adverse events and hemodynamic stability with mobilization 12 hours postoperatively. Both the ICU Liberation Bundle and the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) CS guidelines advocate for the early mobility of patients in the ICU. Despite being safe and recommended, knowledge gaps concerning modality effectiveness among early mobility interventions and the definition of what early means, underlie the current lack of integration of early mobility into CS ICU clinical care. Guided by a pragmatist worldview, this doctoral thesis aims to develop early mobility interventions informed by patients with life experience (PWLE), clinicians, and the literature and to test the feasibility of the interventions through four studies. First, a scoping review of published early mobility interventions to map the CS ICU early mobility literature to understand the early mobility interventions used in studies of various designs will be completed. Next, an observational study using behaviour mapping to gain an understanding of the current state of early mobility in the CS ICU will occur. The development of early mobility interventions informed by PWLE, clinicians, and the literature will begin engaging PWLE in body mapping and virtual consultation workshops to understand their experiences of early mobility, to identify barriers and facilitators to early mobility, and to identify and prioritize patient-reported outcome and experience measures. Focus groups will then occur to delve into clinicians' perceptions of barriers and facilitators to early mobility. This knowledge will be integrated with existing literature to develop two early mobility interventions, which will then be refined, and feasibility tested. Overall, this research aims to generate high-quality, lived experience-informed evidence to support the future efficacy evaluation of early mobility interventions following CS to reduce the incidence of CS PICS.

Donations Needed!
by Nursing Students' Association 05 Feb '24

05 Feb '24

Hi everyone, We are fourth-year nursing students, Sophia and Leigha, completing our community rotation at an agency working with newcomer refugee children and youth. As you may know, many refugee children and youth come from low-income families. As a result, it is often a struggle for families to provide essential school supplies required for academic success. We are seeking donations of school supplies which are listed in the poster attached to this email. These items will come in the form of backpack kits and given to children transitioning into our education system. The supplies donated will not only help the children and their education, but also the financial burden that their families may experience. There will be specially marked boxes outside of the NSA office in Helen Glass from February 5th to February 16th. All donation items must be new or unopened. Thank you for considering! Warm regards, Sophia & Leigha
