Impact of a Structured Response and Evidence-Based Checklist on In-hospital Stroke Outcomes
CONCLUSIONS Use of a checklist during inpatient stroke events can potentially increase adherence to guidelines for appropriate treatment and reduce mortality. Hospital response teams should consider use of a structured response system with an evidence-based checklist for high-acuity, low-frequency events such as in-hospital stroke.

Characteristics of a Brisk or Sluggish Pupillary Light Reflex: A Nursing Perspective
CONCLUSION Latency, followed by the constriction velocity, was felt by PICU nurses to be the most important characteristic of the PLR that results in terms “brisk” or “sluggish” being used at the bedside to describe a PLR. We plan to compare these subjective opinions with objective findings from pupillometry. (Source: Journal of Neuroscience Nursing)

Caregivers of Patients With Brain Metastases: A Description of Caregiving Responsibilities and Psychosocial Well-being
CONCLUSION Although FCGs reported mitigating factors such as social support, they still experience significant distress. Findings support previous work suggesting that neuro-oncology caregiving is burdensome, with adverse effects on health and well-being. Foundational work, such as this, will set the stage to identify areas for future intervention. (Source: Journal of Neuroscience Nursing)

The Quality of Life as a Predictor of Social Support for Multiple Sclerosis Patients and Caregivers
This article explores the relation between quality of life (QOL) and the perceived available social support among patients with MS and their families. METHODS: The study included 120 subjects (60 patient-caregiver dyads). The average age of the patients was 53.95 ± 10.19 years, and for caregivers, it was 50.8 ± 13.3 years. The study used 2 subscales of the Berlin Social Support Scale (perceived availability of social support and need for social support) and the World Health Organization Quality of Life questionnaire for the assessment of QOL. RESULTS: QOL in MS is lower compared with that of their caregivers in all dimen...
