Incorporating patient, nursing and environmental factors into antimicrobial stewardship: effects of simplifying treatment from cefuroxime to ceftriaxone
CONCLUSION: This simplification of our AG from a three-times-daily to a once-daily antibiotic resulted in considerable savings for our hospital (roughly 1.7 full-time equivalent nurses and over a tonne of waste yearly), with no significant increases in CDI or 3GCR-E. The impact of dosing schedules on non-antibiotic-spectrum factors, such as nursing time and resource usage, is worthy of consideration when designing AGs.PMID:38696830 | DOI:10.26635/6965.6449 (Source: New Zealand Medical Journal)

(2) Pessimism mediates the association of stress with adjustment and death distress. (3) Optimism only mediates the effect of stress on psychological adjustment among nurses.PMID:38695430 | DOI:10.1590/1518-8345.7068.4173 (Source: Revista Latino-Americana de Enfermagem)
