Electrochemical water oxidation is a major focus of solar energy conversion efforts. A new laboratory experiment has been developed that utilizes real-time, hands-on research to discover catalysts for conversion. The HARPOON, or Heterogeneous Anodes Rapidly Perused Oxygen Overpotential Neutralization, allows an array mixed-metal oxide compositions be analyzed in parallel test their activity as catalysts. Students create unique combinations materials, which are then utilizing simple,...
<h3>Importance</h3> The capability and capacity of primary care practices to report electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) are questionable. <h3>Objective</h3> To determine how quickly can eCQMs the practice characteristics associated with faster reporting. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This improvement study examined an initiative (EvidenceNOW Southwest) enhance practices' ability adopt evidence-based cardiovascular approaches: aspirin prescribing, blood pressure control,...
Abstract Purpose Understanding knowledge of and attitudes toward medication‐assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) is important to changing the conversation about this devastating public health problem. While several studies report clinician training, less known community member perspectives. As part Implementing Technology Medication Assisted Treatment Team Training in Rural Colorado study (IT MATTTRs), describes implementation community‐based interventions developed by...
<h3>Purpose:</h3> To improve cardiovascular care through supporting primary practices9 adoption of evidence-based guidelines. <h3>Study Design:</h3> A cluster randomized trial compared two approaches: (1) standard practice support (practice facilitation, assessment with feedback, health information technology assistance, and collaborative learning sessions) (2) plus patient engagement support. <h3>Methods:</h3> Primary outcomes were clinical quality measures (CQMs) collected at baseline, 9...
Objectives: In response to rural communities and practice concerns related opioid use disorder (OUD), the Implementing Technology Medication Assisted Treatment Team Training in Rural Colorado study (IT MATTTRs) developed a training intervention for full primary care (PCP) teams MAT OUD. This evaluation reports on implementation, participant satisfaction, impact perceived ability deliver MAT. Methods: PCPs High Plains Research Network were randomized receive team either in-person or through...
The opioid epidemic highlights the importance of evidence-based practices in management chronic pain and need for improved resident education focused on treatment controlled substance use. We present development, implementation, outcomes a novel, long-standing interprofessional safe prescribing committee (SPC) resulting policy, protocol, longitudinal curriculum to address patient care educational gaps residents training.The SPC developed implemented an single, community-based residency...
Unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) is associated with preventable morbidity and mortality accounted for more than 140,000 deaths per year in the US during 2015 to 2019. The United States Preventive Services Task Force recommends routine screening UAU adults aged 18 years older pregnant persons, followed by brief counseling a positive (B recommendation). Primary care clinicians can improve outcomes universally offering counseling. This study aimed increase screening, intervention,...
<h3>Background</h3> Patients with rheumatic diseases may require routine control and strict monitoring of their disease side effects treatment [1]. The possibility providing nursing consultations for rheumatology patients via telephone or email rather than at clinic attendance [2], can potentially result in a lower rate visits, better informed supported families, more appropriate use healthcare resources real cost saving [3-5]. <h3>Objectives</h3> To describe the content non-face nursing....
<h3>Context:</h3> Unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) is associated with preventable morbidity and mortality across the lifespan, accounting for over 140,000 death/year in U.S. during 2015-19. The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends routine screening UAU adults aged 18 years older, followed by brief counseling a positive medication-assisted treatment and/or referral patients disorder (AUD). Primary care an ideal context implementation of processes may help reduce stigma UAU. Despite...
