On October 23, 2024, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended a major change in its guidelines for pneumococcal vaccination in adults, lowering the recommended age of vaccination from 65 to 50 years. The rationale is based on the opportunity to protect adults from pneumococcal disease when risk of infection substantially increases. This review discusses recent epidemiologic and clinical data regarding pneumococcal disease in adults (focusing on Streptococcus pneumoniae community-acquired pneumonia), the current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention vaccination recommendations in adults, adverse events/contraindications, and the role of nurse practitioners and others in advocating for pneumococcal vaccination in adults to promote public health.
2024年10月23日,美国疾病控制与预防中心(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)建议对成人肺炎球菌疫苗接种指南进行重大修改,将推荐接种年龄从65岁降至50岁。其理由是,当感染风险大幅增加时,有机会保护成年人免受肺炎球菌疾病的侵害。这篇综述讨论了最近关于成人肺炎球菌疾病的流行病学和临床数据(重点是肺炎链球菌社区获得性肺炎),目前疾病控制和预防中心对成人的疫苗接种建议,不良事件/禁禁症,以及护士从业人员和其他人在倡导成人肺炎球菌疫苗接种以促进公共卫生方面的作用。

Background

Nurse practitioner students must learn the clinical decision-making process.

Methods

A case-based simulation was tested with pediatric nurse practitioner students.

Results

Scores on the Student Simulation Design Scale for Objectives and Information (mean = 4.3, SD = 0.49), Problem-solving (mean = 4.3, SD = 0.58), and Fidelity (mean = 4.3, SD = 0.61) show benefits to learning. Scores on the System Usability Scale (mean = 4.02, SD = 0.57) show satisfaction with module clarity and functionality.

Conclusion

A case-based simulation enhances student readiness before entering the clinical training setting through guided assessment and clinical decision-making skills practice.

Type 2 diabetes is a common chronic condition that was initially thought to be a progressive condition. Recent studies have demonstrated that the remission of type 2 diabetes is possible through lifestyle modifications. As demonstrated by the case presented, even patients with severely uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c > 16.5%) can achieve remarkable improvement (HbA1c 5.6%) through intensive lifestyle modification. Achieving widespread diabetes remission would significantly improve clinical outcomes for patients and decrease the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and its complications. Nurse practitioners are well positioned to prescribe lifestyle changes through motivational interviewing that promote type 2 diabetes remission.
2型糖尿病是一种常见的慢性疾病,最初被认为是一种进行性疾病。最近的研究表明,通过改变生活方式可以缓解2型糖尿病。正如本例所示,即使是严重不受控制的糖尿病患者(HbA1c > 16.5%),也可以通过强化生活方式改变获得显著改善(HbA1c > 5.6%)。实现广泛的糖尿病缓解将显著改善患者的临床结果,降低2型糖尿病及其并发症的患病率。执业护士可以通过动机性访谈来改变生活方式,从而促进2型糖尿病的缓解。

Worksite wellness programs have been shown to improve employee health, but little is known about the barriers and facilitators to participation in these programs. This study explored the barriers and facilitators to participating in a workplace wellness program. Results indicate that health care workers experience increased energy and greater control over their lives when they engage in regular physical activity. They need more time in the day to exercise and more green spaces for physical activity, however. Exploring the barriers to participation in workplace wellness programs may inform future initiatives aimed at reducing burnout and turnover among nurses and nurse practitioners.
工作场所健康计划已被证明可以改善员工的健康,但很少有人知道参与这些计划的障碍和促进因素。本研究探讨了参与工作场所健康计划的障碍和促进因素。结果表明,当卫生保健工作者定期进行体育活动时,他们的精力会增加,对生活的控制能力也会增强。然而,他们需要更多的时间来锻炼身体,需要更多的绿色空间来进行体育活动。探索参与工作场所健康计划的障碍,可以为未来旨在减少护士和护士从业人员的倦怠和离职提供信息。

Nurse practitioner (NP) students face heightened stress during their transition from registered nurse to novice NP. This study evaluated a 12-week mentorship program pairing NP students with experienced NPs via a regional advanced practice nurse organization. Pre/post surveys (Perceived Stress Scale, modified Casey-Fink) and exit interviews were analyzed. Results showed significant reductions in stress (t14 = 2.49, P = .025) and improvements in role confidence (t14 = −5.05, P < .001) and support (t14 = −3.70, P = .002). Findings support early mentorship as a viable, regional strategy to reduce stress and enhance transition readiness in NP students.
执业护士(NP)的学生面临着从注册护士过渡到新手NP的压力。本研究通过区域高级执业护士组织评估了一项为期12周的指导计划,将NP学生与经验丰富的NP配对。分析了前后调查(感知压力量表,修正Casey-Fink)和离职访谈。结果显示压力显著降低(t14 = 2.49, P = 0.025),角色自信(t14 = - 5.05, P < 0.001)和支持(t14 = - 3.70, P = 0.002)显著提高。研究结果支持早期指导是一种可行的区域策略,可以减轻NP学生的压力,提高他们的过渡准备。

Xylazine, a Nonopioid Sedative and Public Health Crisis—An Overview 非阿片类镇静剂噻嗪与公共卫生危机综述
Pub Date : 2025-10-24 DOI: 10.1016/j.nurpra.2025.105588
Brayden Kameg, Madeline Lepore
There has been a recent emergence of xylazine adulteration within the community drug supply. Xylazine use can precipitate central nervous system depression, hypotension, bradycardia, and respiratory depression, and these effects are further potentiated when combined with fentanyl or other opioids, escalating the risk of fatal respiratory depression. Furthermore, xylazine use is associated with necrotizing and treatment refractory wounds. Nurse practitioners across the care continuum must be aware of xylazine and associated management strategies. The purpose of this review is to provide nurse practitioners with the necessary information needed to provide high-quality care to those affected by xylazine use and associated sequelae.
最近出现了在社区药品供应中掺假二嗪的情况。使用噻嗪可引起中枢神经系统抑制、低血压、心动过缓和呼吸抑制,当与芬太尼或其他阿片类药物联合使用时,这些影响会进一步增强,增加致命呼吸抑制的风险。此外,使用噻嗪与坏死性和治疗难治性伤口有关。护士从业人员在整个护理连续性必须意识到二嗪和相关的管理策略。本综述的目的是为执业护士提供必要的信息,以便为那些受二甲肼使用和相关后遗症影响的患者提供高质量的护理。

The project aimed to improve access to standardized mental health education for English- and Spanish-speaking stroke patients while promoting patient-provider mental health discussions. Video-based mental health education (VMHE) was developed for outpatient visits after hospitalization, with YouTube analytics tracking views and provider-recorded mental health interventions documented. Descriptive statistics summarized outcomes. VMHE was viewed by 68% of English-speaking and 66% of Spanish-speaking patients. The number of provider-documented mental health encounters increased by 45% for English-speaking patients, whereas no change was observed for Spanish-speaking patients. VMHE shows promise for outpatient mental health education, but further research is needed to determine long-term effectiveness and sustainability.
该项目旨在改善说英语和西班牙语的中风患者获得标准化心理健康教育的机会,同时促进患者与提供者之间的心理健康讨论。基于视频的心理健康教育(VMHE)是为住院后的门诊患者开发的,通过YouTube分析跟踪观看次数,并记录提供者记录的心理健康干预措施。描述性统计总结结果。68%说英语的病人和66%说西班牙语的病人看了VMHE。在说英语的患者中,医生记录的心理健康就诊次数增加了45%,而在说西班牙语的患者中,没有观察到任何变化。VMHE显示了门诊心理健康教育的前景,但需要进一步的研究来确定长期有效性和可持续性。

This study examined complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use among 80 older adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) in rural southern Taiwan. Conducted from January 2023 to March 2024, the survey revealed that 83.7% used CAM: primarily acupuncture (50.7%), exercise (26.9%), and calcium supplements (26.9%). CAM use was higher among women (86.6%) and those not regularly taking conventional medication (P = .034). Only 4.5% of knee OA patients did not inform their health care providers. The main reason for CAM use was perceived fewer side-effects. Findings highlight the need for health professionals to understand CAM practices to ensure safe, informed, and comprehensive care for rural older adults.
本研究调查台湾南部农村80名老年膝关节骨关节炎患者的补充和替代药物(CAM)使用情况。从2023年1月到2024年3月进行的调查显示,83.7%的人使用CAM:主要是针灸(50.7%),运动(26.9%)和补钙(26.9%)。妇女(86.6%)和不定期服用常规药物的妇女(P = 0.034)使用CAM的比例较高。只有4.5%的膝关节炎患者没有告知他们的医疗保健提供者。使用替代药物的主要原因是副作用较少。研究结果强调,卫生专业人员需要了解辅助医疗实践,以确保农村老年人获得安全、知情和全面的护理。

Heart failure (HF) affects 1 in 4 Americans and significantly contributes to rising health care costs. Biomarkers are pivotal in the management of HF; however, they must be interpreted in the context of individual clinical characteristics for accurate interpretation. This review outlines the integration of natriuretic peptides and cardiac troponins into clinical practice using current HF guidelines. Evidence on the role of soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 and galectin-3 as HF biomarkers is briefly reviewed. Nurse practitioners are well-situated to use biomarkers in clinical decision-making to improve patient outcomes.
每4个美国人中就有1人患有心力衰竭(HF),这大大增加了医疗费用。生物标志物是心衰治疗的关键;然而,为了准确的解释,它们必须在个体临床特征的背景下进行解释。这篇综述概述了使用当前心衰指南将利钠肽和心肌肌钙蛋白整合到临床实践中。本文简要综述了可溶性抑制肿瘤发生-2和半凝集素-3作为HF生物标志物的作用。护士从业人员有能力在临床决策中使用生物标志物来改善患者的预后。
