Asbestos Related Disease

Patients with asbestos related diseases frequently require procedures done in the Radiology and Imaging setting. Expert knowledge is needed by radiology and imaging nurses to assist in treating these patients. This educational article provides information regarding the origin and progression of these diseases. Many radiology and imaging nurses lack this in depth information regarding asbestos related diseases.

The desired outcome is to improve the quality of care to radiology and imaging patients who have or may have asbestos related diseases.

Adult Cancer Pain: An Evidence-Based Update

Cancer is the leading cause of death, claiming 8 million lives in 2012 worldwide; with 14 million new cases diagnosed annually. Research supports the cancer pain can be prevented and successfully alleviated in 90% of cases. However, studies show a third of survivors, half of patient’s actively being treated, and 80% at the end of life endure cancer pain. Evidence based approaches to cancer pain management are underutilized. Radiology nurses are involved in the care of these patients along their continuum of cancer management. Many radiology nurses would benefit from increased knowledge in this area.

Radiology's Role and Common Injuries in Mass Casualty Blast Incidents

The central role of radiology in the decision-making process for managing blast injury victims ensures a large percent of mass casualty patients will require radiology services during their initial assessment. The potential for movement of significant number of seriously injured patients through radiology requires familiarity with the mechanisms of blast injury, potential red flags for patients who should proceed to definitive care rather than additional studies, and early signs of deterioration to watch for while in the radiology department.

Giving an effective presentation is a basic skill all nurses must master. With little or no education in school or on the job on how to structure content, create visuals and deliver the lecture, many people avoid giving presentations. This workshop will lead individuals through the creation of a presentation in a stepwise manner and give attendees practical strategies for immediate use.
Cathy Brown earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree with distinction from the University of Alberta. Since 2010 Cathy has been the Diagnostic Imaging Nurse Navigator, responsible for clinic consultations, patient education, and follow-up as well as organizing multidisciplinary rounds with gastroenterologists, urologists and thoracic surgeons.

Presented on March 6, 2017 - 8:00 -9:00
By Karen Green, MHA, RN, BSN, CRN

“Nurses possess a vast amount of knowledge, fueled by years of education and experience, in a variety of settings. But, what is our reason to be? Many nurses state they came into nursing because they ‘care about people’ and have a true ‘desire to help’. A large percentage of us are entering a new phase of life and nursing... caring for our families in a way very different from caring for our children. Parents and spouses who develop a chronic, debilitating illness require our love, understanding and care now more than ever.” This session will cover aspects such as growing into the nurse we have become, recognizing and improving our coping skills, and understanding the importance of caring for ourselves’.

Karen Green has been active in ARIN for the past 14 years serving in a variety of positions. She currently serves as Chairperson for the Capnography Task Force focused on educating nurses on the benefit and use of Capnography.

Transgender 101: Fundamentals for Clinicians

GS17 Transgender 101: Fundamentals for Clinicians
Wednesday,, March 8, 9:00am-10:00am
Paula Neira, MSN, JD, RN, CEN

In the 21st century, clinicians must provide care to an increasingly diverse patient population. Due to a lack of education most clinicians cannot provide culturally competent care to this population. Historically, radiology personnel have had little training or exposure to this population. This presentation provides clinicians with an overview of the transgender population, their health concerns, and the negative impact discrimination has had on healthcare for this group. The presentation provides clinicians with fundamental information to better communicate respectfully with transgender patients and provides tools to better understand and support transgender colleagues or family members. The presentation provides information about respectful language, term definitions, pronoun usage, and appropriate clinical questioning. Gender theory is briefly reviewed, differences
between sex, gender identity, and gender expression will be discussed and the presenter will share ways to improve electronic medical record systems and facility engineering.
Paula M. Neira is a certified emergency nurse with over 22 years of varied nursing experience including the VA, a rural, critical-access hospital, and urban, academic trauma centers. For 8 years, she has been nurse educator in emergency medicine at Johns Hopkins Hospital. In January 2016, she was appointed as co-chair of Johns Hopkins Transgender Medicine. Executive Task Force.

Joanna Po Lecture Series: Totally Rad Introductory Competencies

Orientation checklists are traditionally lengthy and often do not contain measurable statements or sufficient verification methods to validate an employee’s competence. Additionally, checklists focus on technical skills while neglecting other areas of competency, such as critical thinking and interpersonal interactions. A large academic medical facility wanted documentation of orientation competencies to be meaningful not just “check the box.” The past three years, master’s prepared nurses specializing in education, led a community of learning (COL) with staff nurses from multiple practice settings to develop a process to validate orientation competencies. Following a literature review, the COL identified a list of core competency categories and statements which captured the essence of the role of the frontline nurse, and would be measurable. The COL identified multiple verification methods appropriate to measure various domains of competency. The core competency categories and statements, along with verification methods were sent out via the central nursing staff development committee for implementation. Radiology nursing further developed this framework into competencies that address needs specific to nurses in the imaging environment. This new process provides structure and consistency for introductory competencies, recognizes core knowledge common to all radiology nurses, and meaningfully validates competence in a document that is significantly more concise.

The field of Interventional Oncology is an emerging discipline that offers the patient with a cancer diagnosis, in particular those diagnosed with HCC, an option when one wasn’t previously available. Interventional Oncology offers therapeutic interventions such as TACE, DEB TACE, radioembolization, as well radiofequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoembolization. In addition, an extremely important part of the Interventional oncology discipline is the supportive aspect and procedures that are part of the overall process. The presentation will touch on the current treatments options available through Interventional Oncology, both therapeutic and supportive, as well as trends in the discipline. In addition, the role of the Radiology nurse in assessment, planning, education, and treatment will be addressed

Creating a Culture of Evidence-Based Nursing in the Radiology/Imaging Setting-ARCHIVE

This webinar is no longer available for CE credit, but can be reviewed for content free of charge.

Creating a culture of evidence-based practice in a radiology/imaging department is often easier said than done.  What’s clear, however, is that evidence should be used to define best practices rather than support existing, and perhaps outdated procedures.  Evidence-based practice based on research is more likely to result in desired patient outcomes. It also provides opportunities for nursing care to be more individualized, effective, streamlined, and dynamic, while maximizing the effects of clinical judgment.
