Abstract:

To date, outcome research suggests that providing clinicians with patient progress feedback and problem-solving tools is effective in improving therapeutic outcome for clients who are predicted to have a negative treatment outcome. To expand upon this body of research, the current study examined the efficacy of using these problem-solving tools (Clinical Support Tools; CST) to reduce the risk of treatment failure and enhance positive outcome with 118 clients who were not identified as at -risk for a negative outcome. Results of this study indicated that the intervention failed to lower the rate of becoming an at-risk case or to enhance treatment outcome. A possible explanation for the null results observed is poor treatment compliance. Based on the findings of this study, the CST cannot be recommended as an intervention across the broad range of clients who enter treatment. However, qualitative analysis results reflect positive indicators for continued research with at-risk cases.

Abstract:

Background: Peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) are the most common invasive medical device and up to 70% of hospitalised patients require one or more during their hospital stay. However, up to 69% of PIVCs fail before treatment is complete, resulting in pain and discomfort for patients from reinsertion attempts, and financial liability for healthcare institutions. Effective PIVC dressing and securement is an important nurse-led strategy to prevent PIVC complications and failure; however, the most effective way of achieving this is yet to be determined. PIVC securement bundles are a multiproduct combination consisting of a primary dressing and securement in addition to supplementary securement products to provide extra stability. Despite growing evidence that a single dressing or securement product is not effective at preventing PIVC complications and failure, there has been very limited research attention to date on the concept of a securement bundle for the prevention of PIVC failure. Aims and objectives The overarching aim of this PhD was to investigate the use of a securement bundle to reduce PIVC complications and failure. There were three objectives guiding the research: 1) describe global usage of dressing and securement products, including supplementary securements, to secure PIVCs; 2) determine associations between (a) PIVC dressing and securement products, individually and in combination, and PIVC complications, and (b) patient, PIVC, and institutional factors, and suboptimal dressing integrity; and 3) establish the feasibility of testing securement bundles to prevent PIVC complications and failure in a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT). Design Two frameworks were used to guide this research. The Vessel Health and Preservation Framework was used to contextualise this research within the PIVC continuum of care. The methodological framework underpinning the research methods was the Canadian Critical Care Trials Group programmatic model of research. This work was informed by an integrative review of contemporaneous literature regarding medical adhesive tapes and supplementary securement products and consisted of two phases: a secondary analysis of an existing data set of PIVC insertion, maintenance, and outcome data; and a pilot RCT testing two dressing and securement bundles against standard care for the prevention of PIVC complications and failure. Phase 1 Study design: Secondary analysis of a global cross-sectional study of PIVC characteristics, management, and outcomes. Setting: 407 rural, regional, and metropolitan hospitals in 51 countries. Sample: 40,637 PIVCs in paediatric and adult patients. Measurements: Institution, PIVC, and patient-level data were collected in the parent study. Selected data were extracted from the parent study data set for the secondary analysis, specifically those focusing on PIVC dressing and securement policy and practice. Main results: Dressing and securement practices, and local hospital policy regarding dressing change frequency varied. One-fifth of dressings (21%, n = 8519) were not clean, dry, and intact. The prevalence of PIVC insertion site complications was 16% (n = 6503), with signs of phlebitis commonly observed (11.5%, n = 4587). Compared to non-bordered polyurethane dressings, sterile gauze and tape dressings were associated with fewer insertion site complications (odds ratio (OR) 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.50, 0.68) and better dressing integrity (OR 0.68; 95% CI 0.59, 0.77). Compared with no securement, non-sterile tape at the insertion site was associated with more site complications (OR 2.39, 95% CI 2.22, 2.57) and poorer dressing integrity (OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.51, securement combinations were associated with fewer site and dressing complications, compared with a bordered polyurethane dressing and non-sterile tape. Local PIVC guidelines advocating 4-hourly insertion site inspection (OR 0.84, 95% CI 0.72, 0.98) and dressing replacement between 1 3 days (OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.71, 0.90) were associated with better PIVC dressing integrity than those inserted prehospital (OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.52, 2.24); or with no documentation of site assessment within the last 24 hours (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.54, 1.72); and the absence of hospital PIVC insertion and maintenance guidelines (OR 2.58, 95% CI 2.38, 2.81). Phase 2 Study design: A non-masked, single centre, three-group pilot RCT. Setting: General medical/surgical wards of a large quaternary hospital in Queensland, Australia. Sample: Adult patients requiring a PIVC for > 24 hours, who had no laboratory-confirmed positive blood culture within 24 hours of screening. Interventions: Participants were randomised into one of three groups: 1. Standard care sterile with Border 1635, 10.5 x 8.5cm, 3M, St Paul, Minnesota, USA); plus two non-H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape, 3M, St Paul, Minnesota, USA). 2. Securement bundle 1 one sterile tape strip in chevron pattern around PIVC hub and one sterile tape strip over hub (Steri- Minnesota, USA); plus Standard care 3. Securement bundle 2 Bundle 1; plus non-compression tubular bandage (Tubifast, Mölnlycke Heath Care, Belrose, Australia). Outcome measures: The primary outcome was the feasibility of conducting a fully powered definitive RCT based on a composite of eligibility, recruitment, retention, protocol fidelity, missing data, participant/staff satisfaction at insertion and removal, and the ability to provide effect estimates. Secondary outcomes included: PIVC failure, PIVC dwell time, adverse skin events, PIVC colonisation and cost. Main results: Of 109 randomised participants, 104 were included in final analyses. Feasibility outcomes were met, except for the eligibility criterion (79%) indicating that screening processes should be streamlined. Absolute PIVC failure was 38.2% (13/34) for Bundle 2, 25% (9/36) for Bundle 1, and 23.5% (8/34) for Standard care. The incidence rate ratio for PIVC failure/1000 catheter days, compared to Standard care, was 1.1 (95% CI 0.4, 2.7) and 2.1 (95% CI 0.9, 5.1) for Bundles 1 and 2, respectively. The incidence of adverse skin events, commonly bruising, was 13%. Additional securements, either non-sterile tape and/or a tubular bandage, were applied in 45% of PIVCs; however, this practice occurred more commonly in the standard care arm compared to the securement intervention arms. Conclusion: Global PIVC dressing and securement practice is associated with site complications and poor dressing integrity, both of which are highly prevalent in clinical practice. Phlebitis symptoms and poor dressing integrity are associated with the use of non-sterile tape at the PIVC insertion site, and this practice should be de-implemented. This research introduced the novel concept of securement bundles as an intervention to address current high PIVC failure rates and showed promising results, with three of the four bundles tested in a secondary analysis of a large global data set being significantly associated with fewer site complications, and two of the four associated with fewer dressing complications. Subsequent pilot testing of two securement bundles against standard care demonstrated it is feasible and safe to conduct a large definitive trial testing this intervention to address PIVC failure. Importantly, the interventions were acceptable to staff and participants. Nurses commonly apply reinforcements to PIVC dressings, the reasons for which are not clear and require further exploration. Innovative dressing and securement solutions are needed to reduce unacceptable PIVC failure rates, and securement bundles should be investigated as a matter of priority to improve patient outcomes. This doctoral research program has advanced the understanding of the role of dressing and securement in PIVC failure, demonstrated that securement bundles should be tested in a definitive trial, and has made an important contribution to addressing the pervasive problem of PIVC failure.

Abstract:

Heart failure (HF) induced by aortic pressure over-load is associated with increased coronary artery stiffness. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) and advanced glycation end products (AGE) both promote arterial stiffness. However, the mechanisms by which coronary PVAT promotes arterial stiffness and the efficacy of exercise to prevent coronary stiffness are unknown. The present study hypothesized both chronic continuous and interval exercise training would prevent coronary artery stiffness associated with inhibition of PVAT secreted AGE. Yucatan mininature swine were divided into four groups: control-sedentary (CON), aortic-banded sedentary heart failure (HF), aortic-banded HF continuous exercise trained (HF+CONT), and aortic-banded HF interval exercise trained (HF+IT). Coronary artery stiffness was assessed by ex vivo mechanical testing and coronary artery elastin, collagen and AGE-related proteins were assessed by immunohistochemistry. HF promoted coronary artery stiffness with reduced elastin content and greater AGE accumulation which was prevented by chronic continuous and interval exercise training. HF PVAT secreted higher AGE compared with CON and was prevented in the HF+CONT and HF+IT groups. Young healthy mouse aortas cultured in HF PVAT conditioned media had increased stiffness, lower elastin content and AGE accumulation compared with CON, which was prevented by PVAT from the HF+CONT and HF+IT groups. HF coronary PVAT secreted greater interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 compared to CON which was prevented by both continuous and interval exercise training regimens. We conclude chronic continuous and interval exercise is a potential therapeutic strategy to prevent coronary artery stiffness via inhibition of PVAT-derived AGE secretion in a pre-clinical mini-swine model of pressure overload-induced HF.

Abstract:

Individuals with end-stage kidney disease have the treatment options of receiving conservative care, dialysis or a kidney transplant. There are two main types of dialysis – haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. For a peritoneal dialysis (PD) program to be successful, close attention must be paid to preventing PD-related infections. A common and serious complication of PD is peritonitis. Peritonitis is a contributing cause of death in about 16% of PD patients and is a major cause of PD technique failure, which results in patients having to switch to long-term haemodialysis. The peritonitis rates of different renal centres are known to vary widely both within and between countries. Explanations for this variation are likely related to patient selection, patient training and infection-prevention protocols. This is a thesis by publication containing published and submitted work related to identifying barriers in practice to the uptake of relevant guideline recommendations, identifying current antimicrobial prophylaxis practice patterns in Australian and New Zealand (ANZ) PD units, assessing the evidence base for the antimicrobial agents used to prevent PD-related infections, and exploring patient experiences and beliefs about peritonitis. Chapter one is a general introduction to the topic. Chapter two is a narrative review of the literature relating to the prevention of PD-related infections. Chapter three is an original baseline study which assesses current practice and barriers to antimicrobial prophylaxis at 8 PD units. Chapter four is a systematic review of trials which have used various antimicrobial agents to prevent peritonitis in PD patients. Chapter five is an original survey study which assesses current antimicrobial prophylaxis practice at ANZ PD units. Chapter six is an original qualitative study that explores patients’ needs, experiences and beliefs about the prevention and treatment of peritonitis. The main aim of this thesis was to assess the current evidence base for the antimicrobial agents used, to establish current antimicrobial prophylaxis practice in ANZ PD units, to identify barriers to the uptake of guideline recommendations, and to explore patient experiences and beliefs about peritonitis and use the findings to suggest ways to improve the care and support they receive.

Abstract:

Prediction of crack growth in encapsulating material has a critical issue on the reliability of electronic components. To prevent the risk of material rupture or to extend the lifetime of these structures, experimental and numerical methods are developed within the context of linear elastic fracture mechanics. The present study proposes to extend techniques to epoxy resins. First, an experimental procedure using compact tension (CT) specimens is applied to characterise the fracture toughness of epoxy resins. This technique is then used to compare different epoxy resins and to quantify effects due to presence of filler particles. Then, a method is proposed to determine a fracture criterion for cracks under mixed mode loading. Experiments enable to extract the direction of crack propagation for given proportions of tensile and shear loading. Based on finite element methods, a numerical analysis is used to calculate the direction of crack propagation. A comparison between experimental and numerical results confirms the capability of FE codes to predict curved crack path. As well, fatigue crack growth is investigated with CT specimens under cyclic loading. Material parameters are identified in accordance with the Paris law. With the help of the commercial software Zencrack, a crack propagation can be simulated by a sequential approach, in which the crack length is updated step by step. 2D and 3D models are generated. The influence of the crack curvature through the thickness is described. On that purpose, a modified Paris law is proposed. The simulated crack propagation provides excellent agreements with experimental measurements
La fiabilité des composants électroniques est parfois détériorée à cause de la propagation de fissures dans les matériaux de protection. Pour anticiper les risques de rupture et améliorer la durée de vie de ces structures, des méthodes expérimentales et numériques sont développées dans le cadre de la mécanique de la rupture linéaire élastique. La présente étude propose d’appliquer ces techniques aux résines époxy. Une procédure expérimentale est mise en place afin de caractériser la ténacité de résines époxy. La dispersion du test est évaluée avec une méthode statistique basée sur une distribution de Weibull. Cette technique permet une comparaison entre différents types de résines (chargées ou non chargées). Une méthode est ensuite proposée pour déterminer un critère de rupture pour les fissures sous chargement de mode mixte. Une analyse numérique, basée sur un code éléments finis, est utilisée pour calculer la direction de propagation. Une comparaison entre résultats numériques et expérimentaux confirme la capacité du code EF à prédire un chemin de fissuration incurvé. En outre, l’analyse de propagation de fissure en fatigue découle de résultats expérimentaux réalisés sur des éprouvettes Compact Tension (CT) soumises à un chargement cyclique en traction. Les paramètres matériaux sont extraits suivant une loi de type Paris. A l’aide du logiciel Zencrack, une propagation de fissure en 3D peut être simulée via une approche séquentielle, durant laquelle la fissure est propagée pas-à-pas. L’influence de la géométrie du front de fissure sur les prédictions numériques est mise en évidence. Les résultats numériques présentés sont en bon accord avec les résultats expérimentaux

Abstract:

La trattazione ha ad oggetto la responsabilità penale per omesso impedimento del reato e per omesso impedimento dell’evento concausato dall’azione criminosa di un terzo, nella giurisprudenza e nella dottrina italiana. Dopo un approfondimento sul controverso concetto di omissione nel diritto penale, il lavoro affronta gli orientamenti di giurisprudenza e di dottrina sull’omesso impedimento dell’evento-reato, ricostruito a partire dagli istituti della commissione mediante omissione e del concorso di persone nel reato. Il tema viene, infine, analizzato dalla prospettiva dell’omissione propria, proponendo un inquadramento del fenomeno all’interno delle “omissioni intermedie”.
The thesis deals with the criminal liability for failure to prevent crimes and failure to prevent events caused by criminal actions, in the Italian case law and literature. After a study on the controversial concept of “omission” in criminal law, the thesis addresses the judgements and the scholarship based on the commission by omission and on the criminal complicity. Eventually, the topic is addressed from the perspective of the “offences of failing to act”, suggesting the framework of the “omission of medium gravity” for the failure to prevent crimes.

Abstract:

Review question / Objective: P: patients with risk factors of multiple organ failure I: balanced crystalloids C: normal saline O: mortality, in-hospital mortality, renal failure, length of ICU stay, length of hospital stay. Condition being studied: In clinical field, aggressive fluid resuscitation therapy is administered to prevent the progression of multiple organ failures by maintaining tissue and organ perfusion. Normal saline is frequently used, but it has been some concerns. Although large-scale studies with balanced crystalloids have been conducted, they couldn’t reach significant conclusions due to the diversity of disease severity. Therefore, we aims to evaluate and identify the best fluid for patients at high risk of multiple organ failure by comparing the effects of normal saline and balanced crystalloids.

Abstract:

Review question / Objective: We compared cytomegalovirus (CMV) vaccination for solid organ transplantation recipients ( SOTs) with placebo treatment, to investigate the efficacy and safety for the prevention of CMV infection in SOTs. Condition being studied: Patients after solid organ transplantation subsequently become immunosuppressed, and cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common opportunistic pathogen to this population. The prevalence of CMV infection can reach 50% in the general population, and further up to 64-72% in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTs). CMV seropositive donors (CMV D+) puts even more pressure of CMV infection for SOTs. Post-transplant CMV infection can lead to neutropenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, tissue/end-organ invasive CMV disease (gastroenteritis, pneumonia, hepatitis, encephalitis), other infectious diseases, graft dysfunction, and multiple organ failure. CMV can disturb immune cell function, thus is one of the major risk factors that increase mortality within 6 months after transplantation. However, practical, effective method to prevent postoperative CMV infection for SOTs remains unresolved. Vaccination of CMV is only at clinical trials stage. To date, there is a lack of guidelines or consensus for preventing CMV disease for SOTs. Given the increasing clinical trials of CMV vaccination, it is important to clarify the evidence-based benefits and risks of CMV vaccination for SOTs, and to provide the best CMV disease prevention measurements.

Idris, Iffat. Documentation of Survivors of Gender-based Violence (GBV). Institute of Development Studies (IDS), July 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2021.103.

Full text

Abstract:

This review is largely based on grey literature, in particular policy documents and reports by international development organizations. While there was substantial literature on approaches and principles to GBV documentation, there was less on remote service delivery such as helplines – much of this only in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, very little was found on actual examples of GBV documentation in developing contexts. By definition, gender featured strongly in the available literature; the particular needs of persons with disabilities were also addressed in discussions of overall GBV responses, but far less in GBV documentation. GBV documentation refers to the recording of data on individual GBV incidents in order to provide/refer survivors with/to appropriate support, and the collection of data of GBV incidents for analysis and to improve GBV responses. The literature notes that there are significant risks associated with GBV documentation, in relation to data protection. Failure to ensure information security can expose survivors, in particular, to harm, e.g. reprisal attacks by perpetrators, stigma, and ostracism by their families/ communities. This means that GBV documentation must be carried out with great care. A number of principles should always be applied when documenting GBV cases in order to protect survivors and prevent potential negative effects: do no harm, survivor-centered approach, survivor autonomy, informed consent, non-discrimination, confidentiality, and data protection (information security).

Full text

Abstract:

Aircraft Arresting Systems (AAS) for military applications utilize sacrificial panels made of Ultra-High Molecular Weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) that are embedded into the pavement beneath the AAS cable to protect the pavement from cable damage. Problems have been observed with the materials and practices used to seal the UHMWPE panel joints from water and debris. Data obtained from laboratory and field studies were used make improvements to current practice for sealing UHMWPE panel joints. The study evaluated four joint-sealant materials, eight alternative surface treatment and preparation techniques to promote adhesion to UHMWPE, and seven joint-edge geometries. Bond-strength testing of joint-sealant specimens was conducted in the laboratory, followed by field evaluation of construction techniques. Field performance of the joint systems was monitored for 24 months after installation. Additionally, a thermal response model was developed to refine the joint design dimensions. Results confirmed that the best material to use was self-leveling silicone joint sealant. It was recommended that a dovetail groove be cut into the edge of UHMW panels to provide positive mechanical interlock and to reduce adhesive failures of the sealant. It was also recommended that the panel-to-panel joint-sealant reservoir be widened to prevent sealant compression damage.

Full text

Abstract:

The goal of fire service training is to prepare students for the conditions and challenges that they face on the fireground. Among the challenges that firefighters routinely face on the fireground are ventilation-controlled fires. The hazard of these fires has been highlighted by several line-of-duty deaths and injuries in which a failure to understand the fire dynamics produced by these fires has been a contributing factor. The synthetic fuels that commonly fill contemporary homes tend to result in ventilation-controlled conditions. While synthetic fuels are common on the residential fireground, the fuels that firefighters use for fire training are more often representative of natural, wood-based fuels. In order to better understand the fire dynamics of these training fires, a series of experiments was conducted in a concrete live fire training building in an effort to evaluate the fidelity and safety of two training fuels, pallets and OSB, and compare the fire dynamics created by these fuels to those created by a fuel load representative of a living room set with furniture items with a synthetic components. Additionally, the effects of the concrete live fire training building on the fire dynamics were examined. The two training fuel loads were composed of wooden pallets and straw, and pallets, straw, and oriented strand board (OSB). The results indicated that the high leakage area of the concrete live fire training building relative to the fuel load prevented the training fuel packages from becoming ventilation-controlled and prevented the furniture package from entering a state of oxygen-depleted decay. The furniture experiments progressed to flashover once ventilation was provided. Under the conditions tested, the wood based fuels, combined with the construction features of this concrete live fire training building, limited the ability to teach ventilation-controlled fire behavior and the associated firefighting techniques. Additionally, it was shown that the potential for thermal injury to firefighters participating in a training evolution existed well below thresholds where firefighter PPE would be damaged.

Full text

Abstract:

Pavement performance is a complex issue which depends on many contributing factors. Examining the performance of real-life pavements across the state determines what the actual service lives are for the pavements. For the purposes of this study, only selected LTPP projects were examined, along with a database containing all the historic repair projects completed in Indiana. Pertinent information present in the Indiana Historic Contracts Database was extracted concerning the types of pavement repair and treatments options commonly employed within the state, the time between repairs, etc. These data were used to determine descriptive statistical parameters and was summarized in graph form. Similarly, data about selected LTPP GPS and SPS sites were downloaded from the online website, LTPP InfoPave and a comparative study between companion sites was performed. These data included study site and pavement-related information, such as construction dates, pavement structure details, maintenance and repair history, and pavement distress surveys. These data were used to draw conclusions about the impact of treatment applications, climatic and geologic factors, traffic volume, and pavement structures on pavement performance. Gaps in knowledge about pavement failure modes, distress data, and effectiveness of treatment applications mentioned in the contracts database file hampered efforts to form a complete picture of the effectiveness of treatment options and their timely (or untimely) application. Similarly, details about pavement mixture design and differentiating factors between companion sites prevented researchers from narrowing down the causes leading to the observed pavement distress.

Full text

Abstract:

Reproductive failure associated with heat stress is a well known phenomenon in avian species. Increased prolactin (PRL) levels in response to heat stress have been suggested as a mechanism involved in this reproductive malfunction. To test this hypothesis, laying female turkeys were subjected to 40°C for 12 h during the photo-phase daily or maintained at 24–26°C. Birds in each group received oral treatment with parachlorophenyalanine (PCPA; 50 mg/kg BW/day for 3 days), an inhibitor of serotonin (5-HT) biosynthesis; or immunized against vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). Both treatments are known to reduce circulating PRL levels. Non treated birds were included as controls. In the control group, high ambient temperature terminated egg laying, induced ovarian regression, reduced plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) and ovarian steroids (progesterone, testosterone, estradiol) levels, and increased plasma PRL levels and the incidence of incubation behavior. Pretreatment with PCPA reduced (P< 0.05) heat stress-induced decline in egg production, increase in PRL levels, and expression of incubation behavior. Plasma LH and ovarian steroid levels of heat stressed birds were restored to that of controls by PCPA treatment. As in PCPA-treated birds, VIP immunoneutralization of heat-stressed turkeys reduced (P< 0.05) circulating PRL levels and prevented the expression of incubation behavior. But it did not restore the decline in LH, ovarian steroids, and egg production (P> 0.05). The present findings indicate that the detrimental effect of high temperature on reproductive performance may not be related to the elevated PRL levels in heat-stressed birds but to mechanism(s) that involve 5-HT neurotransmission and the induction of hyperthermia.

Full text

Abstract:

Skeletal deformities are a significant financial and welfare problem for the world poultry industry. Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is the most prevalent skeletal abnormality found in young broilers, turkeys and ducks. Tibial dyschondroplasia results from a perturbation of the sequence of events in the epiphyseal growth plate, the tissue responsible for longitudinal bone growth. The purpose of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that TD was the result of a failure of growth plate chondrocytes to differentiate and express the chemotactic molecules required for cartilage vascularization. In this investigation in situ hybridization and immunocytochemical techniques were used to study chondrocyte gene products associated with cartilage maturation and vascularization such as osteopontin, osteonectin, type X collagen, and alkaline phosphatase. All markers were present in the growth plate tissue anter or to the TD lesion but were greatly diminished in the TD lesion. Thus, rather than not acquiring the markers for hypertrophy, it appears that the growth plate chondrocytes reach a certain stage of hypertrophy and then de-differentiate into cells which resemble chondrocytes in the prehypertrophic zone. Similar patterns were observed in all TD tissues examined whether the lesions were spontaneous or induced by dietary treatments or genetic selection. The decrease in gene expression can at least be partially explained by the fact that many of the dysplastic chondrocytes show classic signs of apoptosis. These results provide an explanation for the observation that a variety of genes show reduced expression in the TD lesion when examined by in situ hybridization. This would suggest that future research should focus on the earliest detectable stages in the development of TD and examine endocrine and autocrine factors which cause chondrocytes to de-differentiate and undergo premature apoptosis.

Abstract:

Purpose/Background Overdose deaths in the U.S. from opioids have dramatically increased since the COVID-19 pandemic. Although medicated-assisted treatment (MAT) programs are widely available for sufferers of opiate addiction, many drop out of treatment prematurely. Twelve-step programs are considered a valuable part of treatment, but few studies have examined the effect of combining these approaches. We aimed to compare abstinence rates among patients receiving MAT who were referred to 12-step programs to those only receiving MAT. Methods In this prospective study, a cohort of participants from a MAT clinic agreeing to attend a 12-step program was compared to 15 controls selected from a database before project implementation. Eligible participants were diagnosed with OUD, receiving buprenorphine (opiate agonist), and at least 18. Participants were provided with temporary sponsors to attend Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and Medication-Assisted Recovery meetings together. The primary endpoint was the change in positive opiate urine drug screens over 6 months between participants and controls. Results Between March 29, 2021, and April 16, 2021, 166 patients were scheduled at the clinic. Of those scheduled, 146 were established patients, and 123 were scheduled for face-to-face visits. Of these, 64 appeared for the appointment, 6 were screened, and 3 were enrolled. None of the participants attended a 12-step meeting. Enrollment barriers included excluding new patients and those attending virtual visits, the high percentage of patients who missed appointments, and lack of staff referrals. The low incidence of referrals was due to time constraints by both staff and patients. Implications for Nursing Practice Low enrollment limited our ability to determine whether combining medication management with a 12-step program improves abstinence. Failure to keep appointments is common among patients with OUD, and virtual meetings are becoming more prevalent post-COVID. Although these factors are unlikely to be controllable, developing strategies to expedite the enrollment process for staff and patients could hasten recruitment.

Full text

Abstract:

After the 9/11 attacks, a united global community entered an era which saw the proliferation of United Nations entities and organs focused on responding to terrorism. These bodies were created, at least in part, in response to the recognized need for a comprehensive multilateral counter-terrorism architecture to ensure international peace and security in the face of the growing specter of violent extremism. This response has notably also included an array of UN Security Council resolutions (UNSCRs) adopted to counter the threat of terrorism. A little over 20 years after the adoption of Resolution 1373 (2001), 52 terrorism related resolutions now exist, creating an elaborate set of measures for Member States to implement. Despite this, however, terrorism was arguably more prevalent in 2021 than in 2001. A myriad of factors have led to the continued spread of terrorism, including the increasingly transnational nature of terrorists and terrorist networks, as well as the failure to adequately address the structural factors and underlying conditions that are conducive to the spread of violent extremism. In order to explain its persistence, one must not only examine the continued appeal of terrorist groups and violent extremist ideology and propaganda, but also reflect upon where, how, and why counter-terrorism responses have often failed to reduce the threat or, in some cases, even exacerbated the factors which give rise to terrorism in the first place. This includes the response of the Security Council, whose resolutions have created the obligation or expectation for Member States to continuously expand the criminalization of terrorism, without evidence that such an approach will lead to less terrorism. This brief focuses on how some UNSCRs include measures that require Member States to criminalize conduct that has historically fallen within the pre-crime space and lacks a clear link to terrorist activities, and examines the subsequent impact this has on human rights and the effectiveness of the criminal justice system. At the same time, it explores the role that States themselves have played in the exceptionalization of terrorism in terms of criminal justice responses. Finally, it offers recommendations for both the UNSC and Members States on how to ensure that counter-terrorism architecture can both be human-rights based and simultaneously conducive to promoting peace and security.
