1. Patient Safety is a health care professionals’ duty. A sur.docx
1. Patient Safety is a health care professionals’ duty. A surgical team’s duty is the “…functioning of the unit and provide safety and well-being to the person who will submit to a surgical procedure” (Ventin Amorim Oliveira, Nunes Oliveira, Guedes Fontoura, et al, 2017). Surgical and treatment errors occur due to underlying causes. For instance, the failure to properly sterilize medical instruments following surgeries. Porter Adventist Hospital in Denver have notified some patients whom have been exposed to HIV, hepatitis B or hepatitis C in breaches that occurred during the time frame of July 21, 2016 and February 20th (CNN Wire, 2018).
2. Due to this error, stakeholders that were affected were the possible affected patients. The article from CNN Wire stated that the surgeries were “…found to be inadequate, which may have compromised the sterilization of the instruments” (CNN Wire, 2018). Highest risk is in hospital surgical rooms at which, “In patients who went through surgical interventions, 14-17% all hospital-acquired infections are comprised of “Surgical Area Infections”” (Ay & Gencturk, 2018). Due to the complex environments of hospitals and operating rooms, preventative factors must be to follow protocols and assure patients that they are in a safe environment to undergo the surgical procedures.
3. What information is needed to perform a root cause analysis?
Quality improvement involves numerous perspectives to detect root causes and develop optimum solutions for triumph. “A root cause analysis is used to find out what happened, why it happened, and determine what changes need to be made to improve performance” (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 2018). Several pieces of information are required to perform a root cause analysis. Some of the information that might be helpful consists of “incident reports, risk management referrals, patient or family complaints, and health department citations” (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 2011). Collecting data helps prove there is a problem and helps determine how long the problem has existed, as well as how it has impacted the organization.
4. Which tool would you use to create a root cause analysis? Why?
“Root cause analysis is increasingly being used in health and social services to improve safety and quality and minimize adverse events” (Pearson, 2005). The tool that would best work to create a root cause analysis would be a cause and effect chart such as a fishbone analysis. “This process elicits root causes rather than just symptoms and results in a detailed visual diagram of all the possible causes of a particular problem” (Phillips & Simmonds, 2013). The reason a fishbone analysis would be used to create a root cause analysis is because it helps explore the issue in detail, which often will demonstrate possible solutions that might have been previously excluded. “Fishbone analysis provides a template to separate and categorize possible causes of a probl ...

1. Week 5 Assignment - Case Study: Statistical Forecasting
Dr. Megan Zobb, a key researcher within the North Luna University Medical Center, has been studying a new variant of a skin disease virus that seems to be surfacing among the North Luna University population. This variant (which has been tentatively named Painful Rash or PR), leads to the formation of surface lesions on an individual's body. These lesions are very similar to small boils or isolated shingles sores. These PR lesions are not necessarily clustered as shingles lesions are, but are isolated across the body.
Insights From Initial Interviews
Megan is initiating some efforts at a preliminary analysis. She has seen 20 initial patients and made several observations about the skin disease. She wants to analyze this initial data before structuring and recommending a more encompassing study.
The signs and symptoms of this disorder usually affect multiple sections of the patient's body. These signs and symptoms may include:
· Pain, burning, numbness or tingling, but pain is always present.
· Sensitivity to touch.
· A red rash that begins a few days after the pain.
· Fluid-filled blisters that break open and crust over.
· Itching.
Some people also experience:
· Fever.
· Headache.
· Sensitivity to light.
· Fatigue.
Pain is always the first symptom of PR. For some, it can be intense. Depending on the location of the pain, it can sometimes be mistaken for a symptom of problems affecting the heart, lungs, or kidneys. Some people experience PR pain without ever developing the rash. The degree of pain that the individual experiences is seemingly proportional to the number of lesions.
Dr. Zobb is extremely concerned that this new variant is especially challenging to the younger population, who are active and like to be outdoors. She has asked you as an analyst and statistician for some assistance in analyzing her initial data. She is not a biostatistician, so she requests that you explain the process you use and your interpretation of the results for each task.
Initial Data Analysis
Dr. Zobb has accumulated some data on an initial set of 20 patients across multiple age groups. She believes that the data suggests younger individuals are affected more than others. She wants you to complete the tasks shown here based on the data below.
For each of the following, provide a detailed explanation of the process you used along with your interpretation of the results. Submit the response in a Word document and attach your Excel spreadsheet to show your calculations (where applicable). Be sure to number each response (e.g., 1.a, 1.b,…).
1. Develop an equation to model the data using a regression analysis approach and explain your calculation process in Excel.
1. Calculate the r-square statistic using Excel. Interpret the meaning of the r-square statistic in this case.
1. Determine three conclusions that address the initial observations and are supported by the regression analysis.

Process Improvement Plan For this, your penultimate assignment .docx
Process Improvement Plan:
For this, your penultimate assignment for this class, you’ll be putting together a process improvement plan. There’s nothing tricky about this assignment; it is nothing more or less than what its name suggests. You’ll just pick a process at use in an organization with which you’re familiar and explain how it can be improved.
There’s a document in Files with the subtitle ‘process improvement plan’ that I recommend you download and read through, since many parts of this assignment were taken from this template. Although a formal process improvement plan includes an assessment of the change after it’s been implemented, we’re going to forgo that step here. Instead, we’re going to focus on writing a rationale for the plan, developing and implementing the plan, and evaluating the plan.
The paper will be broken into five parts/sections. What follows here are the assignment guidelines, and the point value of each section:
General Guidelines:
· Label each area using the five headings included in the grading rubric.
· Use organizational charts, tables, and bulleted lists where appropriate (make sure that you label these items)
· Check for spelling and grammar errors. Two points will be taken off for each error.
· Use MS Word or save your document as a rich text file, so that formatting is retained.
· Include page numbers (this part of the project will generally be between 5-7 pages in length)
· Include a title page
· Upload your completed project into the appropriate area in Week 13.
Section 1: Introduction
Give us a brief overview of the organization that you are profiling, and explain the process that you intend to improve.
Section 2: Rationale for Change
This section is comprised of two parts, labeled below as ‘a’ and ‘b’.
a) Explain how the process you are analyzing satisfies the following criteria:
· The process can be defined. That is, we can explain in ‘plain English’ what the process is. Walk the reader through each step of the process as it’s currently conducted.
· The process occurs frequently within the organization.
· The problems with the current process are fairly well-known and obvious (HINT: It will likely be helpful here to provide examples of instances where the current process has broken down or where its inefficiency has been exposed).
· Stakeholders will appreciate improvements to this process.
· We can make the needed changes to this process with little or no outside help.
b) Additionally, provide a flowchart of the current process. Be sure to include all steps.
Section 3: Process Design and Implementation
This section is comprised of three parts, labeled ‘a’ , ‘b’ and ‘c’ below.
a) Answer the following questions. Be sure your answers are complete.
· What steps in the process will be changed?
· What are the risks associated with this change?
· What are the costs?
· What workers will be affected by this change? Discuss both those workers who will be directly affected, and those that will be indirectl ...

1 week 6 assignment ebp change process form ace star model
This document outlines a nursing student's plan to implement a change project to reduce postoperative surgical site infections. Specifically, the student proposes prohibiting artificial nails among clinical staff members. The rationale is that artificial nails harbor pathogens and have been linked to outbreaks of similar infections in surgical patients. The student identifies relevant stakeholders, including nurses, technicians, managers, and administrators. The plan involves educating staff on the new policy, conducting audits to collect infection rate data before and after implementation, and reporting outcomes to stakeholders. If successful, the policy would become permanent. The goal is to improve patient outcomes and safety by reducing opportunities for infection transmission in the operating room.

RCA is a process analysis method used to identify the underlying causes of adverse events. It aims to determine what happened, why it occurred, and how to prevent recurrence. RCA investigations focus on systems and processes rather than individual performance. They should be initiated promptly for high risk incidents and completed within 2 months. The major steps include defining the problem, mapping timelines, identifying causes, developing recommendations, and writing a report with conclusions and risk reduction plans. The goal is to convert causal findings into actions to mitigate risks and ensure safety.

Clinical audit
This document discusses clinical audits, which systematically review patient care against criteria to improve outcomes. Clinical audits compare current practices to standards to identify any gaps and drive improvements. They have been incorporated worldwide as part of clinical governance efforts since the 1990s. Some key points made include:
- Clinical audits can reduce risks, ensure cost-effectiveness, and improve patient care and outcomes.
- One of the earliest clinical audits was conducted by Florence Nightingale during the Crimean War, which significantly reduced mortality rates.
- Audits ask if standards are being followed correctly, while research asks if the right approach is being taken.
- Successful audits include clear, measurable criteria; objective data collection; analysis

“… nurses provide services that maintain respect for human dignity and embrace the uniqueness of each patient and the nature of his or her health problems, without restriction with regard to social or economic status.” (American Nurses Association, n.d.a, para 1)
Essential Questions
What significance does joining a professional organization have on nursing practice?
How can nurses contribute to legislative changes that impact nursing practice and patient outcomes?
Why is evidence-based practice (EBP) the gold standard in patient care protocol improvements?
Introduction
According to the American Nurses Association (ANA) there are currently 3.6 million registered nurses in the United States (American Nurses Association [ANA], n.d.b, para 12). The ANA is a professional nursing organization, which began when fewer than 20 nurses attended a convention in 1896. Nurses at the time were concerned with nursing practice standards and nurse competency. The ANA has since grown into an organization with interests in improving health care and setting standards for nursing practice. All nurses are represented regardless of status within the organization. The goal of professional organizations is to support nurses and improve the profession (ANA, n.d.c).

Module 4: Technology Project Proposal
Submit the completed assignment by 11:59 PM, Sunday of Module 4.
Overview
A fundamental aspect of nursing informatics is project implementations based on technology for patient care problems. The American Nurses Association (ANA) Scope and Standards of Nursing Informatics Practice requires the Nurse Informaticist to propose, implement, and evaluate technological advances for quality patient care. The Quality and Safety Education for Nursing’s (QSEN) pre-licensure Informatics competencies relate to how informatics supports safe, quality patient care through the following:
· Value nurses’ involvement in design, selection, implementation, and evaluation of information technologies to support patient care
· Describe examples of how technology and information management are related to the quality and safety of patient care
· Apply technology and information management tools to support safe processes of care
For this assignment, you will develop a proposal for a new technology that is currently not being used in your area of nursing practice. Keep in mind that technology has some form of electronic component to it for this paper.
Starting with the need, identify why the need exists for the new technology. What data is collected that tells you a problem exists? How will this technology answer the problem? Provide an analysis of the current situation and potential opportunity for improving patient care. With any new technology project, there must be stakeholder identification, an identification of quality indicators, projected benefits, consideration for training, and evaluation of outcomes.
Write a 6-10 page formal APA paper that describes the new technology following the directions below. This does not include title page and references. The 6-10 range allows you to expand or contract your paper and gives you some leeway on the total number of pages.
The purpose of this assignment is to encourage a depth and breadth of understanding about new technology and the impact on patient care. This assignment allows insight into the many facets of bringing about change from inception to evaluation.
This assignment is 20 points, or 20% of your final grade.
Directions
1. The Technology Proposal Project is a formal paper so plan accordingly. Use section headers (Background of Problem, Technology, Quality, Stakeholders, Evaluation and Conclusion). Please keep in mind that the following is to be used as a guide. You still need to demonstrate original and critical thinking on the topics.

2. Provide a background on the new technology. This should include one to two pages that provides a general understanding of the problem, in a global sense, that the proposed technology could address. Include:
a. Context for the problem. Consider the following questions when writing this section: What is the problem for health care? How do you know it is a problem? What data is currently collected ...

Code of Ethics: This is a synopsis of some of the most important ethical
considerations you need to be aware of as a professional in the real estate
industry.
Terminology:
Agency: The fiduciary relationship created between a principal and an agent whereby the agent
can act on behalf of the principle for certain transactions. Agency is usually created when the
principal signs a listing agreement to list their property for sale or a management contract to rent
a property for instance.
Agent: The broker or sales associate acting on behalf of the principal (see Agency)
Client: The person with whom the broker or sales associate has a legal contract to represent.
Customer: Is not contractually bound to the industry professional
Principal: Person who hires an agent to act on his or behalf.
Code of Ethics:
#1: The agent has a responsibility to promote the interests of their client(s) and treat all involved
in any real estate transaction in an honest and fair manner. They must disclose if they are a
dual agent (representing both buyer and seller in a transaction) or a designated agent
(represent either the buyer or seller depending on state law), or they are a limited representative
(will provide only certain duties in the transaction per state law).
#2: Agents must openly acknowledge to clients any personal interest they might have in any
transaction prior to showing a property; they must acknowledge any personal relationships
involved. Ex: Agent says, “I want to disclose to you before we look at it, that this property
belongs to is my brother and my sister in-law is his agent.”
#3: The Agent will not allow anyone that is not pre-authorized by the owner, to access the
property of the client.
#4: Never overstate benefits or attributes of a property or opportun.

This document outlines a nursing student's plan to implement a change project to reduce postoperative surgical site infections. Specifically, the student proposes prohibiting artificial nails among clinical staff members. The rationale is that artificial nails harbor pathogens and have been linked to outbreaks of similar infections in surgical patients. The student identifies relevant stakeholders, including nurses, technicians, managers, and administrators. The plan involves educating staff on the new policy, conducting audits to collect infection rate data before and after implementation, and reporting outcomes to stakeholders. If successful, the policy would become permanent. The goal is to improve patient outcomes and safety by reducing opportunities for infection transmission in the operating room.

For this assignment, you will develop a proposal for a new technology that is currently not being used in your area of nursing practice. Keep in mind that technology has some form of electronic component to it for this paper.
Starting with the need, identify why the need exists for the new technology. What data is collected that tells you a problem exists? How will this technology answer the problem? Provide an analysis of the current situation and potential opportunity for improving patient care. With any new technology project, there must be stakeholder identification, an identification of quality indicators, projected benefits, consideration for training, and evaluation of outcomes.
Write a 6-10 page formal APA paper that describes the new technology following the directions below. This does not include title page and references. The 6-10 range allows you to expand or contract your paper and gives you some leeway on the total number of pages.
The purpose of this assignment is to encourage a depth and breadth of understanding about new technology and the impact on patient care. This assignment allows insight into the many facets of bringing about change from inception to evaluation.
This assignment is 20 points, or 20% of your final grade.
Directions
1. The Technology Proposal Project is a formal paper so plan accordingly. Use section headers (Background of Problem, Technology, Quality, Stakeholders, Evaluation and Conclusion). Please keep in mind that the following is to be used as a guide. You still need to demonstrate original and critical thinking on the topics.

2. Provide a background on the new technology. This should include one to two pages that provides a general understanding of the problem, in a global sense, that the proposed technology could address. Include:
a. Context for the problem. Consider the following questions when writing this section: What is the problem for health care? How do you know it is a problem? What data is currently collected ...

Code of Ethics: This is a synopsis of some of the most important ethical
considerations you need to be aware of as a professional in the real estate
industry.
Terminology:
Agency: The fiduciary relationship created between a principal and an agent whereby the agent
can act on behalf of the principle for certain transactions. Agency is usually created when the
principal signs a listing agreement to list their property for sale or a management contract to rent
a property for instance.
Agent: The broker or sales associate acting on behalf of the principal (see Agency)
Client: The person with whom the broker or sales associate has a legal contract to represent.
Customer: Is not contractually bound to the industry professional
Principal: Person who hires an agent to act on his or behalf.
Code of Ethics:
#1: The agent has a responsibility to promote the interests of their client(s) and treat all involved
in any real estate transaction in an honest and fair manner. They must disclose if they are a
dual agent (representing both buyer and seller in a transaction) or a designated agent
(represent either the buyer or seller depending on state law), or they are a limited representative
(will provide only certain duties in the transaction per state law).
#2: Agents must openly acknowledge to clients any personal interest they might have in any
transaction prior to showing a property; they must acknowledge any personal relationships
involved. Ex: Agent says, “I want to disclose to you before we look at it, that this property
belongs to is my brother and my sister in-law is his agent.”
#3: The Agent will not allow anyone that is not pre-authorized by the owner, to access the
property of the client.
#4: Never overstate benefits or attributes of a property or opportun.

ome creators announce their inventions with grand
éclat. God proclaimed, “Fiat lux,” and then flooded
his new universe with brightness. Others bring forth
great discoveries in a modest guise, as did Charles
Darwin in defining his new mechanism of evolu-
tionary causality in 1859: “I have called this principle, by which
each slight variation, if useful, is preserved, by the term Natur-
al Selection.”
Natural selection is an immensely powerful yet beautifully
simple theory that has held up remarkably well, under intense
and unrelenting scrutiny and testing, for 135 years. In essence,
natural selection locates the mechanism of evolutionary change
in a “struggle” among organisms for reproductive success, lead-
ing to improved fit of populations to changing environments.
(Struggle is often a metaphorical description and need not be
viewed as overt combat, guns blazing. Tactics for reproductive
success include a variety of nonmartial activities such as earlier
and more frequent mating or better cooperation with partners
in raising offspring.) Natural selection is therefore a principle of
local adaptation, not of general advance or progress.
Yet powerful though the principle may be, natural selection
is not the only cause of evolutionary change (and may, in many
cases, be overshadowed by other forces). This point needs em-
phasis because the standard misapplication of evolutionary the-
ory assumes that biological explanation may be equated with
devising accounts, often speculative and conjectural in practice,
about the adaptive value of any given feature in its original en-
vironment (human aggression as good for hunting, music and
religion as good for tribal cohesion, for example). Darwin him-
self strongly emphasized the multifactorial nature of evolu-
tionary change and warned against too exclusive a reliance on
natural selection, by placing the following statement in a max-
imally conspicuous place at the very end of his introduction: “I
am convinced that Natural Selection has been the most impor-
tant, but not the exclusive, means of modification.”
Reality versus Conceit
N A T U R A L S E L E C T I O N is not fully sufficient to explain evo-
lutionary change for two major reasons. First, many other caus-
es are powerful, particularly at levels of biological organization
both above and below the traditional Darwinian focus on or-
ganisms and their struggles for reproductive success. At the low-
est level of substitution in individual base pairs of DNA, change
is often effectively neutral and therefore random. At higher lev-
els, involving entire species or faunas, punctuated equilibrium
can produce evolutionary trends by selection of species based
on their rates of origin and extirpation, whereas mass extinc-
tions wipe out substantial parts of biotas for reasons unrelat-
ed to adaptive struggles of constituent species in “normal”

Presentation Style
Your research project needs to be clearly presented:
·
The front page should include your
name, project title (around 15 words), your supervisor’s name, the date it
was completed;
·
Work should be presented single
sided, in Arial, minimum font size 11 and be one and a half spaced;
·
A contents page detailing the section
and any tables/charts should be included;
·
Any quotes of less than 12 words
should be identified by quotation marks and kept as part of the paragraph text;
·
Quotes of 12 words and above should
be separated out from the text, indented on the left and right and be displayed
in italics (no quotation marks required);
·
All tables and charts should be
numbered appropriately and have a title;
·
Each section of your project should
be started on a new page;
·
All pages should be numbered;
·
Each section should be numbered (e.g.
1. Introduction) and any charts/graphs within the section should be numbered
accordingly. For example if you are writing about something in section 4.1 (the
first sub-section) then the first chart or graph would be 4.11. So charts and
graphs (if included) are numbered according to the section/sub-section.

• What’s Alistair’s take on Iterative vs. Incremental?
Incremental vs. Iterative
• in incremental development, you do each of those
activities multiple times … that is, you go around the
requirements – design – programming – testing –
integration – delivery cycle multiple times. You
“iterate” through that cycle multiple times. (“iterate” –
get it? sigh…)
• in iterative development, you also do each of those
activities multiple times … you go around the
requirements – design – programming – testing –
integration – delivery cycle multiple times. You
“iterate” through that cycle multiple times. By Gummy!
Both of those are “iterative” development! WOW!

Incremental vs. Iterative (cont’d)
• Of course, the $200,000 question is,
do you repeat the cycle “on the same
part of the system you just got done
with” or “on a new part of the
system”? How you answer that
question yields very different results
on what happens next on your
project.

Rising Up from a Sea of Discontent
The 1970 Koza Uprising in U.S.-Occupied Okinawa
Wesley Iwao Ueunten
Burn, burn, let the whole world burn!
—Overheard by journalists during the Koza Uprising
(Takamine, Shirarezaru Okinawa no beihei)
I came across an account of a riot that occurred in Okinawa on December
20, 1970, that made its way to the front page of many major American
newspapers but then suddenly disappeared from news coverage the next
day. In the aft ermath of the “Koza Riot,” or what I choose to call the “Koza
Uprising” because it was not merely a chaotic and mindless fracas (a point
about which I will address later; see Figure 5.1), over seventy cars owned
by Americans and a few buildings on the huge Kadena Air Force Base, for
which the town of Koza served as an entertainment district, were burned
by Okinawans. No such violent protest by Okinawans toward U.S. military
occupation can be remembered before or since then.
Th is chapter seeks to examine critically the historical and social context
of the Koza Uprising; in doing so, it aims to reveal the nature of a tripartite
relationship between Okinawa, the United States, and Japan. Th at is, the
Koza Uprising took place against the backdrop of U.S. imperialism in Asia
and its colonial rule over Okinawa. Japan had previously been the colo-
nial ruler of Okinawa aft er forcibly annexing the former Ryûkyûan King-
dom in 1879. Consequently, the U.S. takeover of Okinawa in 1945 was the
transfer of control from one colonial ruler to another. However, Japan has
benefi ted from U.S. colonial rule over Okinawa, as its postwar “economic
miracle” was made possible by the U.S. military umbrella concentrated in
Okinawa. In the postwar period, then, Japan became a “junior partner” to

the United States’ hegemonic infl uence in Asia; Japan’s defeat meant that
it was forced to acquiesce to a subordinate status under the United States,
but it did not mean giving up dominant status over other Asian countries.
Okinawa became the “keystone” in this unholy alliance by allowing
Japan to contain the most blatant aspects of U.S. domination in a place far
enough away to remain out of the consciousness of the general American
and Japanese populations but near enough to off er the benefi ts of U.S. mil-
itary presence. Even now, about 20 percent of Okinawa, the main island in
the Ryûkyû Archipelago, is occupied by U.S. military bases. About 75 per-
cent of all U.S. military facilities in Japan are located in Okinawa, despite

Feminist Figures or Damsels in Distress?
The Media’s Gendered Misrepresentation
of Disney Princesses
Isabelle Gill | University of Central Florida
A gender bias seems to exist when discussing Disney princesses in entertainment media that could have
significant consequences for girls who admire these heroines. Prior research and my own extensions have
shown that modern princesses display almost equal amounts of masculine and feminine qualities; how-
ever, my research on film reviews shows an inaccurate representation of these qualities. These media
perpetuate sexist ideals for women in society by including traditionally feminine vocabulary, degrading
physical descriptions, and inaccuracies about the films, as well as syntax and critiques that trivialize the
heroines’ accomplishments and suggest the characters are not empowered enough. The reviews also
encourage unhealthy competition between the princesses and devote significantly more words to these
negative trends than to positive discussions. These patterns result in the depiction of the princesses as
more stereotypically feminine and weak than is indicated by the films themselves, which hinders the cre-
ation of role models for girls.
Despite significant strides women have made
toward combatting sexism in American
society, news and entertainment media rep-
resentations of women continue to be one of
the many obstacles left before reaching
equality. Numerous studies have identified
gender bias in the ways media represent
women (Fink and Kensicki; Niven and
Zilber; Shacar; Wood). Media tend to favor
representations of women who are “tradi-
tionally feminine” as well as not “too able,
too powerful, or too confident,” over more
complex representations (Wood 33). For
example, research by Janet Fink and Linda
Jean Kensicki shows that when media aimed
at both men and women discuss female ath-
letes, their focus is on sex appeal, fashion,
and family rather than athletic accomplish-
ment. Female scientists as well as female
members of Congress also fall victim to this
trend. Interviews with male scientists often
portray them as primarily professionals
while interviews with female scientists tend
to reference their professionalism while high-
lighting domesticity and family life (Shacar).
Similarly, media descriptions of the female
members of Congress focus on domestic
issues even though the congresswomen por-
tray themselves as having diverse interests
(Niven and Zilber). In sum, biased, gendered
representations of women are common in
various forms of media.
Media misrepresentation of women in
these ways can lead to significant social
consequences, such as reinforcing anti-
quated gender roles and diminishing the
perception of women’s impact on society
(England, Descartes, and Collier-Meek;
Fink and Kensicki; Graves; Niven and
Zilber; Shacar; Wood). Since media are
