Nursing Grand Rounds May 13th - All Welcome!!
by Diana McMillan 25 Apr '25

25 Apr '25

Extending a warm welcome to you and your colleagues to join us at the Catalysts for Care 2025 Nursing Grand Rounds Speaker Series! [Date: May 13th, 2025, 12:00 - 1:00 pm, ZOOM presentation. Central Time Zone-DST Presenter: Susan Alcock, RN MN; Research Associate, Department of Radiology, Max Rady College of Medicine, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB. Title: Safety and effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis for acute stroke patients in the Manitoba TeleStroke Program.] [cid:image002.png@01DBB5D9.2B0C2AF0] ZOOM LINK: https://ca01web.zoom.us/j/63817319765?pwd=IQ8YlOE3UseIo1CLn3sser6cJq9e9k.1 Abstract: Background: TeleStroke can improve access to stroke care in rural areas. We aim to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis in our TeleStroke system. Methods: The Manitoba TeleStroke program was rolled out across 7 sites between November 2014 and January 2019. We retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected consecutive acute stroke patients' data in this duration. The primary outcome was safety and effectiveness measured in terms of 90-day modified Rankin score (mRs). The number of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients receiving thrombolysis and endovascular thrombectomy [EVT] and process metrics were also analyzed. R/RStudio version-4.3.2 was used (p<0.05). Results: Of the 1,748 TeleStroke patients (age 71 years [IQR 58-81], female 810[46.3%]), 696 were identified as AIS. Of these, 265(38.1%) received thrombolysis and 48(6.9%) EVT. Ninety-day mortality was 53(20.0%) among those receiving thrombolysis and 117(44.2%) had a favorable outcome (mRs ≤2). Of those who received intravenous thrombolysis, 9 patients (4.2%) were found to have symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. The median last-seen-normal (LSN)-to-door was121 minutes and the median door-to-needle, 55 minutes. Conclusion: Intravenous thrombolysis was found to be effective with acceptable safety. TeleStroke improved overall access to stroke care and played an important role in identifying AIS patients eligible for thrombolysis and EVT.

The impact of Goodreads and Amazon reviews
by wilson90matt＠gmail.com 22 Apr '25

22 Apr '25

In today’s digital publishing world, reviews on Goodreads and Amazon play a pivotal role in the success of any book marketing campaign. They don’t just influence potential readers—they shape an author’s visibility, credibility, and even their ranking in online marketplaces. ⭐ Why Goodreads Reviews Matter Goodreads, owned by Amazon, is the largest social platform specifically designed for readers. It’s where serious book lovers go to discover their next read, join reading challenges, and follow authors. Early Buzz: Goodreads allows authors to collect early reviews before a book’s launch. These advance reviews build anticipation and trust. Algorithm Influence: Highly rated and reviewed books often appear in Goodreads recommendations, reading lists, and newsletters. Community Power: Engaging with Goodreads groups or hosting giveaways can organically increase the number of reviews, supporting your overall book marketing strategy. 🛒 The Power of Amazon Reviews Amazon is not just a bookstore—it’s a search engine. Reviews here carry weight in both customer decisions and how Amazon ranks your book. Purchase Decisions: Many readers read Amazon reviews before buying. A book with 50+ reviews (even mixed) looks more trustworthy than one with only 5. Search Visibility: Books with more reviews tend to rank higher in Amazon’s search results, making them more discoverable through organic traffic. Marketing Leverage: Positive Amazon reviews can be quoted in press releases, social media promotions, and ad creatives, giving your book added social proof. 🎯 Book Marketing Tips to Maximise Review Impact: Launch Team: Build a team of early readers who agree to leave reviews on both platforms upon release. Follow-Up Campaigns: After the initial launch, continue your book marketing efforts with automated email sequences asking readers to leave honest reviews. Review Excerpts: Use your best reviews on landing pages, Amazon ads, and social posts. Avoid Review Spamming: Always seek genuine feedback and never offer incentives that violate platform guidelines. In essence, both Goodreads and Amazon reviews serve as powerful tools in your book marketing @ https://britishbookpublishing.co.uk influencing not just readers, but also algorithms. Smart authors and publishers integrate review-building into their promotional timeline right from day one.

Is it safe to wash and reuse aluminum foil?
by alicedexter8＠gmail.com 22 Apr '25

22 Apr '25

Yes, it is generally safe to wash and reuse <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foil">aluminum foil</a>, as long as it's not heavily soiled or torn. Here are a few things to keep in mind: ✅ When It’s Safe to Reuse: - Lightly used: If it was used to cover food or line a baking sheet without much residue. - Not crumpled: Flatten it out gently if it’s still in good shape. - Not greasy or burnt: Grease and heavy charring are harder to clean and may affect food safety. 🚫 When Not to Reuse: - Torn or heavily wrinkled: These can trap bacteria or break apart during reuse. - Contaminated with raw meat juices: Better to discard in this case to avoid cross-contamination. - Coated with sauces or sticky substances: Cleaning can be tricky and not worth the risk. It’s a good way to reduce waste, just be sure it’s clean and safe for the next use!

[A person wearing glasses and smiling AI-generated content may be incorrect.] Date: April 8th, 2025, 12:00 - 1:00 pm, ZOOM presentation. Central Time Zone-DST Presenter: Dr. Kathryn Chachula, RN BN MN PhD CCNE Chair and Associate Professor, Department of Nursing, Faculty of Health Studies, Brandon University, MB. Title: Supporting the mental health of students and new nursing graduates in Manitoba: Research findings and recommendations. ZOOM LINK: https://ca01web.zoom.us/j/62193270785?pwd=IqsaCZSB24MLxvDBTlPNf4EmPEJ82Y.1 Abstract: Students in undergraduate nursing and psychiatric nursing programs are future professionals entering a health care climate rife with violence and anxiety-provoking life-and-death experiences (Chachula & Varley, 2022). Studies conducted with students enrolled in the Bachelor of Nursing and Bachelor of Science in Psychiatric Nursing programs at Brandon University reveal the presence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and compassion fatigue (Chachula & Ahmad, 2022). This is further aggravated by student reports of racism, hostility, and incivility with students considering leaving their program of study (Chachula et al., 2022) and 29.4% of young nurses in Manitoba leaving the profession as reported by the Montreal Economic Institute (Faubert, 2024). Findings from quantitative and qualitative research projects that are of significance to nurse educators, student clinical placement sites, and employers of new graduates will be discussed with proposed recommendations to address the related findings. There is a need for nurse educators and employers to develop strategies, policy, and guidelines that attend to PTSD, incivility, and transition-to-practice in the student and new graduate population in Manitoba.
