Barriers to Developmental Care in the NICU: An Integrative Review
Variability in developmental care implementation in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) highlights the need to explore barriers to care delivery, yet few studies addressed these challenges.
Implementing a Nurse-Driven Early Ambulation Protocol to Enhance Post-Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Outcomes: A Quality Improvement Initiative
Immobility in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is linked to adverse outcomes and prolonged length of stay (LOS). Advancements in TAVR procedures allow for early ambulation post-procedure.
