Your Chief Nurse Executive (CNE) recognizes you are pursuing your BSN and has asked you to be a member of the nursing evidence-based practice (NEBP) committee. She has advised the members that the purpose is to conduct nursing research studies involving clinical practice problems. Increasing nurses' awareness of quality and safety concerns will help develop an attitude of inquiry and asking questions. Baccalaureate nurses "collaborate in problem identification, participate in the process of search, retrieval, and documentation of evidence, and integrate evidence using credible databases and internet resources. The CNE has advised all members of the following areas of quality and safety clinical practice that each committee member needs to consider and choose only one as a priority area for conducting a research study. Sources of research problems come from nursing clinical practice Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs). Examples include: Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections (CAUTI) Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) Surgical Site Infections (SSI) Sepsis (Screening or Prevention) Discharge Teaching/Coaching Transitions of Care/Level of Care Pressure Ulcers Skin Integrity Your CNE has requested that you select ONLY one topic area and complete the PPE Worksheet using only one topic area. The committee will collaborate and decide as a team which nursing clinical problem area will be the priority focus of their next research study. Thank you for your valuable contributions to this important NEBP committee. .

I. Introduction
Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infection (CLABSIs) in a fatal infection that results from bacteria or viruses entering the bloodstream through the central line. A central line, also known as a central venous catheter, refers to a tube used by doctors to administer medication, fluids or to collect blood from the body of a patient (Deason & Gray, 2018). Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infection is one of the leading causes of deaths each year in different countries across the globe. Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infection has been an area of interest for many healthcare researchers representing a diverse body of knowledge about the infection while still expanding on what is already known. The paper is an analysis of articles related to CLABSIs with the major themes of concern to the authors including risk factors, interventions, CLABSIs and Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs), benefits of the preventive measures and the common symptoms of CLABSIs. Comment by Microsoft Office User: Add a description of how the literature search was completed.

CLINICAL GOVERNANCE: AS DRIVE FOR PATIENT SAFETY.
The focus on patient safety is an international phenomenon. Patient safety is an integral component of the quality of care. The governance of patient safety‘encompasses panoply of regulatory processes that directly or indirectly intend to manage, prevent or limit iatrogenic events in oral health care services. The Influence of Health Inquiries on Clinical Governance Systems in a case Study of the Douglas Inquiry focus on patient safety within the health industry, which has led to the extensive adoption of the term clinical governance. This term is used to describe the systems and processes that a healthcare organization has in place that add to the maintenance of patient safety, accountability and responsibility for patient safety. The introduction of clinical governance is therefore aimed at improving the quality of clinical care at all levels of an organization by consolidating, codifying, and standardizing organizational policies and approaches, particularly clinical and corporate accountability. (Scally, 1998). Clinical governance demands a major shift in the values, culture and leadership, to place greater focus on the quality of clinical care and to make it easier to bring about improvement and change in clinical practice. Clinical governance helps in examining and measuring patient outcomes to ensure optimum quality of care (Balding, 2005).

Introduction
The primary purpose of the research study has been to evaluate if, in adult patients with Central Venous Catheters (CVC), interventional staff education about hub hygiene provided to RN’s who access the CVC impact Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI) rates compared to pre and post-intervention assessments over a two-month period. CLABSI rates will be compared to the Patient Safety Component from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network’s (NHSN) that includes identifying the causation and surveillance methods to track device-associated infections (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016). In addressing the issue and providing the answer the to the research question, this researcher will examine the literature available on the stated topic. Some of the research articles on the subject show similarities regarding research approaches and themes and some have differences. The researcher also looked for evidence that suggests that the data supported the conclusion, and, in some studies, the findings answered the research question.
Evaluation of Research
Regarding similarity in the theme, the researcher did find some regularity in the articles by O’Neil et al. and Salma et al. In the research study, “A Central Line Care Maintenance Bundle for the Prevention of Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infection in Non-Intensive Care Unit Setting,” O’Neil et al. (2016) have suggested that there is a higher rate of compliance with optimal dressing care practices in the control group against the expectations. The primary theme of the research study has been the degree of hygiene maintained by nursing professionals in the context of caregiving in a central line care maintenance setting. In the research study a 12-month study was conducted by Caroline and associates to establish the effectiveness of a central line care maintenance bundle in the reduction of Central Line–Associated Bloodstream Infection (CLABSIs) in general medicine wards. They substantiated their research by disseminating educative guidelines and proper hands-on training for catheter insertion and care for nurses of the experimental group against those of a control group, along with asepsis (hygiene and evaluation of microbiological data). The trained nurses were instructed to examine the central line dressings twice a week for secureness or any purulent discharge. The results of the study revealed higher rates of compliance in optimal dressing care practices in the control group against the expectations. They exemplified a marginal reduction in the incidence of CLABSIs in the intervention group over the control group. The study lacks documentation of dating the dressing changes-a key factor in CLABSI prevention. Moreover, the research is restricted.

EVIDENCE BASED NURSING PRACTICE
This topic is detailed about evidence based nursing practice. this is very important topic for B.SC nursing as well as M.Sc nursing students.
Evidence based dentistry
Evidence based practice is Integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values.
Advantages: QUALITY OF CLINICAL PRACTICE IMPROVES BY INCORPORATING LATEST EFFECTIVE CLINICAL TECHNIQUES INTO PATIENT CARE.
Dental practitioner should try to adopt quality evidences in dental practice, accept evidence based new practices and letting go existing theories.
Evidence collected should be combined with clinical experience and patient preferences. Positive environment with advancement in science can help facilitate evidence based change in future.

Broad Topic Area
1. Broad Topic Area:
The topic taken into consideration is the Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSIs) and prevention
Introduction
2. Introduction
· The paper is an analysis of the CLABSIs infection and how best the infection can be prevented or even eliminated among patients.
· The infection is characterized by a catheter gaining entry into the bloodstream, greatly affecting either the inferior or the superior vena cava or the vessels of the neck.
· The location of the catheter makes entry of pathogens into the bloodstream very occasional. Patients thus become sick easily.
· The risk factors associated with the infection can result from the healthcare provider and also the patients and include; contamination on insertion, the skin flora of the patient, non-intact dressing, poor nutrition, position of the central line, poor patient and healthcare provider hygiene.
· Symptoms include redness, swelling, discharge at the central line exit, fever, chills, respiratory distress, and altered cognitive state.
· The infection can be prevented, through monitoring of the patients for any signs and symptoms, ensuring proper hygiene practices, and keeping patients educated about management of their central line.
· The paper gives all these information in detail, why there is a need to address Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) and how best the infection can be handled both by the health care givers and the patients.
Literature Review
3. Literature Review:
1. Primary points basis four sections in the Literature Review:
a. Background of the problem/gap:
· Researchers have dedicated numerous efforts towards the cause and the probable symptoms related to Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) that one needs to be on the look-out for.
· Attention has thus been shifted from the different measures to prevent the occurrence of the infection among patients.
· There arises an urgency to intervene and develop effective measures to curtail the incidence of CLABSIs.
· The use of proper hand hygiene and skin aseptic techniques over the insertion site is necessary for preventing microbial infections
· The nurses need to have the significant knowledge associated with evidence-based practices for the Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), their attitude towards the guidelines and the utilization of the hygienic measures for the Central Venous Catheter (CVC) patients.
b. Theoretical foundations (models and theories to be the foundation for the project)

They exemplified a marginal reduction in the incidence of CLABSIs in the intervention group over the control group. The study lacks documentation of dating the dressing changes-a key factor in CLABSI prevention. Moreover, the research is restricted.

Broad Topic Area
1. Broad Topic Area:
The topic taken into consideration is the Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSIs) and prevention
Introduction
2. Introduction
· The paper is an analysis of the CLABSIs infection and how best the infection can be prevented or even eliminated among patients.
· The infection is characterized by a catheter gaining entry into the bloodstream, greatly affecting either the inferior or the superior vena cava or the vessels of the neck.
· The location of the catheter makes entry of pathogens into the bloodstream very occasional. Patients thus become sick easily.
· The risk factors associated with the infection can result from the healthcare provider and also the patients and include; contamination on insertion, the skin flora of the patient, non-intact dressing, poor nutrition, position of the central line, poor patient and healthcare provider hygiene.
· Symptoms include redness, swelling, discharge at the central line exit, fever, chills, respiratory distress, and altered cognitive state.
· The infection can be prevented, through monitoring of the patients for any signs and symptoms, ensuring proper hygiene practices, and keeping patients educated about management of their central line.
· The paper gives all these information in detail, why there is a need to address Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) and how best the infection can be handled both by the health care givers and the patients.
Literature Review
3. Literature Review:
1. Primary points basis four sections in the Literature Review:
a. Background of the problem/gap:
· Researchers have dedicated numerous efforts towards the cause and the probable symptoms related to Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) that one needs to be on the look-out for.
· Attention has thus been shifted from the different measures to prevent the occurrence of the infection among patients.
· There arises an urgency to intervene and develop effective measures to curtail the incidence of CLABSIs.
· The use of proper hand hygiene and skin aseptic techniques over the insertion site is necessary for preventing microbial infections
· The nurses need to have the significant knowledge associated with evidence-based practices for the Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), their attitude towards the guidelines and the utilization of the hygienic measures for the Central Venous Catheter (CVC) patients.
b. Theoretical foundations (models and theories to be the foundation for the project)
· The efficacy of training of nu.
Clinical Governance: As Drive for Patient Safety in Clinical Dentistry
The focus on patient safety is an international phenomenon. Patient safety is an integral component of the quality of care. The governance of patient safety ‘encompasses panoply of regulatory processes that directly or indirectly intend to manage, prevent or limit iatrogenic events in oral health care services’.
Clinical Governance: As Drive for Patient Safety in Clinical Dentistry
international phenomenon. Patient safety is an integral component of the quality of care. The governance of patient safety ‘encompasses panoply of regulatory processes that directly or indirectly intend to manage, prevent or limit iatrogenic events in oral health care services’. The Influence of Health Inquiries on Clinical Governance Systems in a case Study of the Douglas Inquiry focus on patient safety within the health industry, which has led to extensive adoption of the term clinical governance. This term is used to describe the systems and processes that a healthcare organization has in place that add to the maintenance of patient safety, accountability and 1responsibility for patient safety. The introduction of clinical governance is therefore aimed at improving the quality of clinical care at all levels of an organization by consolidating, codifying, and standardizing organizational policies and approaches, particularly clinical and corporate accountability. (Scally, 1998). Clinical governance demands a major shift in the values, culture and leadership, to place greater focus on the quality of clinical care and to make it easier to bring about improvement and change in clinical practice. Clinical governance helps in examining and measuring patient outcomes to ensure optimum quality of care

Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test.docx
Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test on your network. Several vulnerabilities were identified, and the IT security management team has recommended mitigation. The manager has asked you to construct a plan of action and milestones (POA&M) given that the following vulnerabilities and mitigations were identified:
The penetration test showed that not all systems had malware protection software in place. The mitigation was to write a malware defense process to include all employees and retest the system after the process was implemented.
The penetration test indicated that the data server that houses employee payroll records had an admin password of “admin.” The mitigation was to perform extensive hardening of the data server.
The penetration test also identified many laptop computers that employees brought to work and connected to the internal network,some of which were easily compromised. The mitigation was to write a bring your own device (BYOD) policy for all employees and train the employees how to use their devices at work.

Your company You are a new Supply Chain Analyst with the ACME.docx
Your company: You are a new Supply Chain Analyst with the ACME Corporation. We design specialty electronics that are components in larger finished goods such as major appliances, automobiles and industrial equipment. Manufacturing is outsourced to low-cost suppliers due to the significant labor contribution and closeness to electronic component suppliers.
Your product: ACME Corp. designs a leading-edge family of devices branded as “Voice Assistants.” These are add-on boxes that many OEMs are using as plug-and-play devices in a wide variety of Internet-of-Things products. They are also sold directly to consumers as after-market items, but only for IoT devices that were built with our proprietary data-port.
Figure 1: Product line of ACME Corp Voice Assistant IoT Add-on Boxes
Your task: Your Chief Supply Chain Officer (CSCO) is requesting a review of supplier-to-customer processes as related to recent growth in our company and increasing demand for faster responsiveness to customers. One alternative is to decentralize our inventory into regional Distribution Centers; however, our ERP system is currently limited in the data available to make some of these decisions – and the output reports are very antiquated. Starting off the process, the CSCO directed that your Analysis Team use population data to pro-rate our national sales data as a starting point. For this analysis, you are asked to focus only on the flagship product, Voice Assistant IoT Add-on Box, 4GB, SKU #123-456789. The challenge is now yours to complete some computations and interpret the results!
Your data: A detailed report from your ERP system along with secondary data from the U.S. Census Bureau (reference: https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/data/data-sets.html) is provided. (Note: Sales to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico are handled by a 3PL provider and therefore are NOT part of this analysis.) The consolidated EXCEL® file has incorporated several tasks already performed by the Analysis Team --- sort, cleanse, inventory optimization, etc. Other tasks remain for your team.
Detailed Requirements: Prepare a formal report summarizing your results and providing recommendations that are supported by facts. The required layout follows:
A. Supply Chain Management:
a. Identify a single key supplier and a single key customer for your product, including a brief description of their product.
b. Identify the proper type of business relationship that your company should have with the supplier and customer from Part A, above, then briefly describe the data that you would share with them.
c. When implementing Supply Chain Management with your #1 key supplier for the first time, create a timeline that lists each of the six SCOR processes in the order that you recommend implementation; include process leader (by job title), primary contact at supplier/customer (by job title), and duration to implement.

Digital Tools and AI for Teaching Learning and Research
This Presentation in details discusses on Digital Tools and AI for Teaching Learning and Research
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
