The retention of physicians and other health care professionals in rehabilitation medicine is a critical issue that affects patients' access to care and the quality of the care they receive. In the United States and globally, there are known shortages of clinicians including, but not limited to, physicians, nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists. These shortages are predicted to worsen in the future. It is known that attrition occurs in a variety of ways such as a clinician reducing work hours or effort, taking a position at another organization, leaving the field of medicine altogether, stress-related illness, and suicide...

BACKGROUND: Preterm birth (birth before 37 completed weeks of pregnancy) is the leading cause of neonatal and child under-five mortality globally, both of which are highest regionally in sub-Saharan Africa. The skin barrier plays a critical role in neonatal health and increasing evidence supports the use of topical emollient therapy to promote postnatal growth and reduce hospital-acquired infections in preterm infants. The World Health Organization (WHO) currently recommends emollient therapy in preterm or low birthweight infants globally but calls for further research on impacts of emollient use, especially in Africa...

INTRODUCTION: Obstetric emergency triage is a relatively new form of emergency triage and is not yet implemented in Sweden. Adaptations enables safe assessment of the childbearing woman, fetus and labor status. Failure to identify severely ill childbearing women and women post childbirth has repeatedly led to adverse outcomes. Introducing obstetric emergency triage constitutes a profound alteration in management that may challenge preconceived notions on how to provide best care. This study aimed at exploring and describing obstetric staff's experiences of working with obstetric emergency triage...

BACKGROUND: Most sepsis patients could potentially experience advantageous outcomes from targeted medical intervention, such as fluid resuscitation, antibiotic administration, respiratory support, and nursing care, promptly upon arrival at the emergency department (ED). Several scoring systems have been devised to predict hospital outcomes in sepsis patients, including the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. In contrast to prior research, our study introduces the novel approach of utilizing the National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2) as a means of assessing treatment efficacy and disease progression during an ED stay for sepsis...

OBJECTIVE: To address gaps in understanding the public health nursing workforce regarding competencies recognized as critical during an emergency response. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A cross-sectional observational study using data with information on local health department staff- and organizational-level characteristics collected from across the United States in 2021. We used logistic regression to estimate the association between 2 binary nurse-specific predictors-(1) whether the staff person was a nurse and (2) whether the staff worked in a local health department that was "nurse-led" (directed by a nurse)-and reported proficiencies important to the COVID-19 response...
