▼ Background: Dietary recommendations to athletes are tailored to enhance performance and accelerate recovery. Recommendations focused on these parameters are rarely made in consideration of gut or bone health. Fermentable fibers may play a role in attenuating exercise-induced inflammation and in enhancing calcium absorption; thus, augmenting bone mineral density (BMD) in endurance athletes. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine whether a relationship could be identified between: 1) soluble fiber and anterior-posterior (AP) lumbar spine BMD among a population of endurance athletes, and 2) total fiber intake and AP lumbar spine BMD among a population of endurance athletes. The study also aimed to assess whether calcium intake, sex, and physical activity levels would influence the relationship between soluble fiber intake and AP lumbar spine BMD. Design: This cross-sectional study included 95 athletes who self-defined their primary form of physical activity as an endurance sport. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scans were employed to measure AP lumbar spine BMD and body composition. A self-administered 2005 Block Food Frequency Questionnaire was provided to assess average daily consumption of macronutrients and micronutrients. Reported energy intake was used to compute an individualized Adequate Intake (AI) for total fiber for each participant, based on the Food and Nutrition Board's AI recommendation that men and women consume 14 grams of fiber per 1,000 kilocalories of energy. Physical activity habits were measured by Actical(TM) accelerometers, which were worn by a subset of 55 participants for seven days. The accelerometers measured average number of minutes spent in sedentary behavior and light, moderate, and vigorous physical activity states. To determine whether physical activity influenced the relationship between soluble fiber intake and AP lumbar spine BMD, the median time spent in combined moderate and vigorous physical activity was used to divide the population into lower and upper quartile groups, and analyses were conducted in each group and compared. To determine whether sex, meeting fiber AI recommendations, or meeting calcium Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), analyses were conducted in each group and compared. Results: Data were analyzed for 95 athletes (n = 47 male athletes, 48 female athletes; 38.15 ± 10.07 years of age). Twenty-one of the 95 participants met nutrient needs for total fiber (22%), 46 participants met nutrient needs for calcium (48%), and 11 participants met nutrient needs for vitamin D (12%). Fat-free mass, body mass index, and dietary vitamin D intake were significantly correlated with AP spine lumbar BMD (p = 0.008, p = 0.007, p = 0.015, respectively). No significant correlations were found between soluble fiber and AP lumbar spine BMD, or between total fiber intake and AP lumbar spine BMD in the overall sample or among any of the subgroups (p > 0.05). No significant between-group differences in regression slopes were found between men and women, between… Advisors/Committee Members: Volpe, Stella, 1963-, College of Nursing and Health Professions.

▼ Background: Ankyloglossia or tongue-tie, the tethering of the frenulum under the tongue, can adversely affect breastfeeding by causing a poor latch, maternal nipple pain, and poor milk supply. Not identifying this condition could lead to early breastfeeding cessation. Since nurses at Paoli Hospital are not using evidence-based methods of assessment, they may not be identifying all cases of ankyloglossia. In addition, the best evidence-based method for identifying ankyloglossia has not been established at Paoli Hospital. As popularity in breastfeeding increases, nurses need to know how to assess for ankyloglossia and should be aware of the effects of ankyloglossia on breastfeeding. Purpose: The purpose of this DNP project was to: 1) compare ankyloglossia prevalence rates between the ATLFF (an evidenced based tongue assessment tool) and the prevalence rates using usual nursing tongue assessment, and 2) determine the best objective evidence-based method of ankyloglossia assessment by nurses among healthy newborns before hospital discharge at Paoli Hospital by comparing the BTAT to the ATLFF. Methods and Results: This descriptive comparative design was conducted from October 1 - 28, 2017 using a convenience sample of 130 newborns admitted to the Family-Centered Maternity Unit at Paoli Hospital. Prevalence was found to be 13.8% using the ATLFF and 3.8% as assessed by the nurses’ usual tongue assessment methods. The sensitivity and specificity of usual nursing tongue assessment methods relative to the ATLFF was 22% and 99%, respectively. The prevalence of ankyloglossia measured with the BTAT was 18.5% (185 cases per 1000 newborns), compared to the prevalence measured with the ATLFF which was 13.8% (138 cases per 1000 newborns). The sensitivity and specificity of the BTAT relative to the ATLFF was 77.8% and 91.1%, respectively. Among the two raters, Cohen’s kappa for the ATLFF and BTAT was calculated to be 0.36 and 0.42, respectively. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) between the ATLFF function scores was 0.77 (95% CI [0.55; 0.88]). The ICC between the ATLFF appearance scores was 0.78 (95% CI [0.12, 0.92]). The ICC of the BTAT scores was determined to be 0.79 (95% CI [0.56, 0.89]). Cronbach’s alpha for ATLFF function assessment was 0.79 (95% CI [0.73, 0.84]), while Cronbach’s alpha for the ATLFF appearance assessment tool was 0.82 (95% CI [0.76, 0.86]). The overall Cronbach’s alpha of the ATLFF assessment scale was 0.88 (95% CI [0.85, 0.91]). Cronbach’s alpha for the BTAT was 0.75 (95% CI [0.68, 0.82]). Conclusions: This quality improvement project found that usual nursing subjective assessment did not identify as many cases of ankyloglossia compared to ankyloglossia cases identified using the “gold standard” ATLFF. In addition, the findings suggest that the BTAT is an evidenced-based tongue assessment tool that compares favorably to the ATLFF. Because the BTAT is easier to use, it is recommended nurses use the BTAT for timely ankyloglossia identification to facilitate early referral for frenotomy to achieve… Advisors/Committee Members: Posmontier, Bobbie, College of Nursing and Health Professions.

Orchestral Dialogues: Accepting Self, Accepting Others (Orchestral Dialogues) was a pilot project with BuildaBridge International (BaB), an arts-intervention organization based in Philadelphia, PA. Fourteen children, ages 9 - 14 years, participated during the program's pilot year, 2016-2017. The Orchestral Dialogues project was a community music therapy (CoMT) endeavor that sought to teach both deep listening and transformative dialogue skills through participation in private lessons, rehearsals and dialogue workshops. This study asked the question, how do deep listening skills developed through the orchestral process relate to transformative dialogue skills in children? Ethnographic methods were employed to answer the research question including participant observations, facilitation of a focus group, ongoing informal conversations with participants, their families and staff, and a review of archival data. Data analysis incorporated artistic responses to theme development for the purposes of clarification. The themes identified were 1) adult modeling, 2) role playing, 3) orchestra as analogy for components of dialogue, and 4) community building through collaboration The findings showed that the children, though only in the initial five months of their learning process, understood the basic concepts of deep listening skills (awareness of self, awareness of others, awareness of music) and could translate these to transformative dialogue skills (self-reflexivity, self-expression, responsibility, affirmation, co-creation of a new reality). The findings showed the children described the skills of deep listening and transformative dialogue using musical language and concepts. Although they demonstrated an understanding of the skills, it was evident they required more time to implement the skills in their daily lives. The results of this study contributed to interdisciplinary research in CoMT and conflict transformation literature.

Abstract Follow-up Telephone Call Quality Initiative: Do Follow-up Telephone Calls After Discharge Reduce 30-day Hospital Readmission For Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Recipients? Barbara Worgan, MSN, ANP Background: Outcomes of nursing interventions following discharge for recipients of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are scarce. Purpose: This quality improvement project was a retrospective cohort design to evaluate the effectiveness of a follow-up telephone call on reducing 30-day hospital readmission for patients recovering from the TAVR procedure. Methods and Results: A convenience sample of 50 patients was used, 25 who received the follow up phone calls and 25 who did not. Twenty-five patients were selected from those TAVR patients who did received a follow-up telephone call between January 20 – May 20, 2017 and 25 TAVR patients from those who were not exposed to the intervention between January 20 – May 20, 2016. The cohorts were matched based on sex and NYHA CHF classification at time of the hospital admission. Both hospital length of stay and postoperative length of stay were shorter in the intervention group than the control group. Patients who received the follow-up telephone call post discharge spent on average 2.20 days less in the hospital than those who did not receive the follow up telephone call, 3.92 ± 1.9 days vs 6.12 ± 3.95 days respectively, t = 2.53 (34), p = 0.01. Patients who received the follow-up telephone call post-discharge spent on average 1.28 days less in the hospital after their procedure than those who did not receive the follow-up telephone call, 2.84 ± 1.7 days vs 4.12 ± 2.57 days respectively, t = 2.07 (48), p = 0.01. However, there was no significant difference in readmissions within 30 days of discharge in those received the follow-up phone call post-discharge (n=4, 8%) and those who did not receive the follow-up phone call post-discharge (n=4, 8%). Conclusions: The quality improvement follow-up telephone call initiative did not reduce the rate of hospital readmission. Although, this program did not evaluate patient reported outcomes, future projects should not only consider hospital readmissions but other quality measures as well.

Background: There is a high prevalence of pain in patients with dementia that is often not properly assessed or recognized which leads to ineffective treatment. Health care professionals across all disciplines are faced with the challenge of assessing pain in older patients with dementia. The research suggests that healthcare providers lack knowledge in pain assessment in dementia, which may lead to ineffective treatment. Purpose: The aim of the project was to implement an educational program to improve knowledge and attitudes about pain and pain assessment in persons with dementia (PWD). Methods: A single group pre and posttest design was used. The plan, do, study, act quality improvement model was used to guide the clinical question in the proposed project. The participants were healthcare providers in a long-term care and sub-acute facility. Participants completed a knowledge questionnaire before and after the educational program. A 90-minute educational program was delivered in a group session that included training on the use of the behavioral pain assessment tool (PAINAD). Descriptive statistics and t-test were used to analyze the data. Evaluation: Chart review was performed 30 days after the educational program to evaluate the use of the PAINAD. Results: The findings showed that knowledge on pain assessment in dementia was low among study participants and there was no significant difference in knowledge on pain assessment from baseline to two weeks after the educational program. Significance and Implications: Pain in patients with dementia is under-assessed and undermanaged and is a serious problem in the nursing home. There is a need to provide educational program to enhance pain assessment knowledge with periodic assessment on the use of standardized assessment tool. Increasing knowledge and attitudes on pain assessment and management in PWD will improve quality care among these patients.

Hospitalized pediatric patients are at risk for falls due to a variety causes. Risk for falls is measured through a variety of assessment tools. A gap in the literature regarding the accuracy of the assessment tools to predict pediatric patients at risk for falls, factors which contribute to falls, appropriate education for nurses and families, and evidence-based interventions to minimize risk. Of significance is in the published literature is lack of consistent definition of a fall, contributing factors associated with fall risk, and lack of sensitivity and specificity of existing falls risk assessment tools. A retrospective chart review of patients who did not sustain a fall during admission to an urban pediatric hospital (N=154) was conducted to compare accuracy of fall risk assessment scores with patients who did fall (N=33) during hospital admission. The chart review of the electronic medical records reflected patients admitted during the time period of April 01, 2015- December 31, 2015. The Graf PIF falls risk assessment tool (GPFS) used to assess risk at the study hospital was compared with the Humpty Dumpty Falls Scale and the Morse Falls Scale. In this study the GPFS was found to be effective in identifying patients who did not fall and patients who did fall. Of the patients who fell the GPFS tool gave 100% of the patients a score of 2 or more; of the patients who did not fall 89% received a score of 1 or less. The chi-square test for significance demonstrated that the 2-sided difference is less than .05 therefore the null hypothesis could be rejected and the difference in proportions of children predicted to fall and not fall are significant. The GPFS is an appropriate tool to assess pediatric risk for falls. Further research should be conducted to develop education for nurses and families to reduce risk for falls in pediatric hospitals.

The current state of healthcare with its multifaceted demands related to patient care outcomes and the challenges of managing personnel creates a complex work environment for the nurse leader. Striving to meet the competing needs of the organization, employees, patients and families on a daily basis can result in work related traumatic stress and cause burnout. This places an individual at risk for compassion fatigue (CF). The concept of CF has primarily been studied among direct patient care providers and has not been explored among individuals at the leadership level. The goal of this DNP project was to determine if nurses in leadership positions are at risk for or are experiencing CF. For this study, CF was defined as a state in which a nurse leader experiences an inability to maintain a desired level of compassionate energy, due to frequent and regular exposure to prolonged, emotionally and psychologically challenging managerial circumstances in the workplace (adapted from Andreotta, 2013). A mixed methods approach was utilized to gather demographic data and describe the nurse leader’s level of compassion satisfaction (CS), risk for burnout, and secondary traumatic stress as measured by the Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL) Version 5. The use of open ended questions allowed for the identification of factors in the workplace that are modifiable and can be used to develop a CF prevention program for nurse leaders. Thirty-three nurse leaders from two academic medical centers responded to the research survey which revealed an average to high level of CS, coupled with low to average level of burnout and WRTS among the nurse leaders as measured by the ProQOL V5. CS mean score was 54.55 (SD = 3.94), burnout mean score was 43.11 (SD = 4.04), and WRTS mean score was 41.73 (SD = 3.81). The qualitative data provided insight on the source of CF in the work environment which included employee, patient, and organizational stressors. Potential solutions for mitigation and prevention identified by the nurse leaders included personal and organizational solutions such as enhancing coping skills, developing resiliency skills and increasing organizational support. This study identified the presence of risk factors for the development of CF fatigue among nurse leaders and elements in the work environment that can be modified to prevent this condition. These finding may be used to create a satisfactory Professional Quality of Life for the nurse leader which impacts their role effectiveness and supports the delivery of quality patient care.

▼ Music therapy clinical decision-making for individual parent-dyads has been guided by clinical reflections and program descriptions. Some research in clinical decision-making has been conducted, albeit not focused on the early childhood population. A growing number of board-certified music therapists offer a quasi-manualized program, Music Together Within Therapy, as an intervention option for their early childhood music therapy work. This study asks the question: What are the clinical decision-making processes music therapists undergo when working with parent-child dyads in a single individual music therapy session? Music therapists engage in a series of decision-making processes throughout the course of therapy. This study concerns only those processes that lead to clinical decisions that occur during the course of one session. To address the possible influences of education, training, and theoretical orientation on clinical decision-making for MTWT providers, one sub-question is: What role, if any, does the Music Together training and philosophy have in the music therapist’s process of decision-making that occurs during the course of one session? To address the clinician’s attention to parent training (an integral component of supporting child development) within their clinical decision-making process, the second sub-question is: How do music therapists who use MTWT incorporate parent training into their clinical decision-making process when they work with parent-child dyads? Music therapists who work with individual parent-child dyads using Music Together Within Therapy (MTWT) make clinical decisions based upon a set of driving forces: experiencing beauty, creating a musical container, providing opportunities for growth, and providing opportunities for relating. These driving forces and accompanying 14 belief statements regarding decision-making and the impact of the Music Together philosophy on music therapists’ clinical work were uncovered using an exploratory sequential mixed methods research design. Constructivist grounded theory method of the QUAL analysis of interview data (N = 3) framed the qualitative analysis; descriptive statistics evaluated the level of agreement among a larger body of music therapists who provide MTWT (N = 22). Respondents to the survey endorsed statements related to the MTWT program’s ability to support clinical decision-making: sufficient material for creating interventions, supporting dyad and individual, matching therapist’s clinical decision-making, facilitating collaboration between adults, and promoting dyad relation. A comparison of a larger body of MTWT providers situates the responses to the survey and provides context for the demographic assumptions. Based on the findings, a clinical decision-making framework is offered as a way to conceptualize music therapists’ decision-making processes when using the MTWT program. Music therapists’ approaches to songs and use of musical constructions in the service of supporting relationship development feature prominently in their… Advisors/Committee Members: Goodill, S.

One of the most critical points of a patient's visit to the Emergency Department (ED) is the initial triage process in which a Registered Nurse will sort the patient into acuity levels to determine which patients will require the resources of the department by priority, so optimal outcomes are achieved. Identifying sepsis at ED triage is challenging due to the subtle physiological cues being missed, over-reliance on intuition, and lack of appropriate warning scores or tools for the triage nurse to identify these subtle clues (Yurkova & Wolf, 2011). Under-triage or non-recognition of the septic patient causes a delay in proper sepsis management and longer ED length of stay (LOS). This evidenced-based practice project examined the effects of a hi-fidelity simulated event on the under triaging of septic patients, sepsis identification, compliance with the sepsis bundle and utilization compliance of a national early warning score on septic patients. Identifying how early recognition, accurate triage, the use of an early warning score, impacts the critical septic patient in the ED is important to potentially decrease the mortality in the identified population. A retrospective chart review was conducted on ED charts with the diagnosis of sepsis from the dates of 4/8/2018 to 4/15/2018. The following de-identified data was collected: age, gender, ED arrival time, National Early Warning Score (NEWS) upon triage, ESI triage level, antibiotic administration order, antibiotic administration time, IV fluid administration order, IV fluid administration start time, mortality, and ED discharge time. A high-fidelity simulation was conducted with the ED staff focusing on sepsis identification, implementation of the sepsis bundle and completion of the warning score. Two weeks after the high fidelity simulation another retrospective chart review was conducted analyzing the same variables.

Background: Polypharmacy is prevalent in nursing home residents and has been associated with negative outcomes such as falls, adverse events, cognitive and functional decline, non-adherence, hospitalization and even death. Despite interventions focused on reducing use of inappropriate drugs in elderly people there is still a need to create a process to safely and effectively reduce polypharmacy in this population. A systemic tapering or discontinuation of unnecessary medication called deprescribing has been documented to decrease polypharmacy and exhibited encouraging results in improving patient outcome in nursing home residents. Purpose: To implement a deprescribing process with the goal of tapering or discontinuing unnecessary medications and evaluate the effect of deprescribing medication to the functional status of elderly living in long-term care facility. Method: A one group pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental design was used to determine differences in functional status and number of medications at baseline and 6 weeks after the implementation of the deprescribing process among older adult residents of a long term rehabilitation facility. Functional status was measured using the modified Katz Activities of Daily Living (ADL: Katz). Patients’ responses to the discontinuation of medication were documented for 4 weeks. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired - test. Results: 25 older adults participated in the study. The majority are women ((76%) with a mean age of 84.8 years and average number of prescribed medicine was 9.52 (SD = 4.3). The results showed a significant decrease in the number of medications from baseline and 6 weeks (t = 2.17, p = .007) There was no significant difference (t = 2.06, p = .32) in functional status at baseline and 6 weeks. Conclusion: Deprescribing process in older adults is feasible without adverse effects. Despite the small sample size and short study duration it is encouraging to observe that a patient-centered deprescribing process can safely reduce the number medicines consumed by elderly residents in nursing home without any adverse effect.

Despite research supporting family-professional collaboration, strategies and processes that optimize collaboration are limited. The aims of this research were to determine 1) whether interactions between parents and therapists who are instructed on the collaborative intervention process differ from interactions between parents and therapists in the comparison group, 2) whether the collaborative intervention process improves parent empowerment and child performance, and 3) describe parents and therapists experiences. Participants were 18 children with physical disabilities, their mothers, and 16 physical therapists. Therapists randomized to the experimental group were instructed in the collaborative intervention process. Each family-therapist dyad participated in 6 weekly sessions. Four sessions were videotaped and combined (1st and 2nd for planning, 3rd and 5th for implementation) to code parent-therapist interactions using Response Class Matrix. Outcomes were measured using the adapted Family Empowerment Scale (FES) and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). A questionnaire was completed by parents and therapists to rate and describe their experiences. Therapists in the experimental group demonstrated higher frequency of 'seeking information' (p<.01), 'giving information' (p<.05), 'positive behavior' (p<.01) and lower frequency of 'child-related behavior' (p<.001) than therapists in the comparison group during planning and implementing intervention. Parents in the experimental group demonstrated a higher frequency of 'giving information' than parents in the comparison group (p<.01) during planning and implementing intervention. Mean scores on the FES (p<.05) and COPM (p<.001) increased after intervention for both groups, however, there was no between group difference (p>.05). Effect sizes for change in child performance and satisfaction with performance on the COPM were .73 and 1.08 respectively, favoring the experimental group. Parents in the experimental group felt more confident in carrying out activities during daily routines (p=.011) and perceived they worked together with therapists to a greater extent than parents' in the comparison group (p=.014). Parents in both groups perceived setting an activity goal was most beneficial. Findings show that parents and therapists instructed in the collaborative intervention process interacted more with each other, whereas parents and therapists in the comparison group focused more on the child. Findings also emphasize the importance of shared goal setting for children's activities.
