An Analysis of Cultural Competence in CPR Instruction

In a descriptive study, we intend to explore the comparative efficacy of culturally tailored CPR training, with five components: language variations, cultural adaptations, sex/age-specific instruction, socioeconomic adaptations, and consideration of cultural learning styles. By examining these components, we seek to identify the most effective and culturally sensitive approaches to CPR education. The primary goal is to develop a culturally tailored CPR training curriculum that raises confidence levels of individuals in performing bystander CPR, thus increasing bystander CPR rates and the likelihood of positive cardiac arrest outcomes.

Phase 1 pilot study with dose expansion of chemotherapy in combination with CD40 agonist and Flt3 ligand in metastatic triple negative breast cancer

You are asked to participate in this research study of a new immunotherapy combination with chemotherapy in metastatic triple negative breast cancer. Immunotherapy is a form of cancer therapy that activates a patient's immune system to fight the cancer in a patient's body. Unfortunately, only a limited number of patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer currently respond to FDA approved forms of immunotherapy. CDX-301 and CDX-1140 are two new immunotherapy drugs that are thought to kickstart the immune response against cancers even in patients who do not have an adequate immune response against their cancer to start with. Some studies suggest that combining these drugs with chemotherapy can most effectively kickstart this immune response and lead to improved clinical outcomes.

Developing a multicultural viewpoint framework for the providers to comprehend the caregiver's unique grief experiences.

We want to help people from different cultures who live in America. Sometimes they have a hard time getting the right care because they are different from most Americans. We want to learn their understanding of their grief and the cultural factors that influence their grieving process. We want to talk to them and listen to their stories. This way, we can help them trust the doctors and nurses caring for them. We can also help them find more support online. We think this will make them healthier and happier. We also want to show others that having different feelings and beliefs is okay. We hope that by doing this study, we can help the therapists develop a deeper understanding of the grieving experiences and provide culturally appropriate care to their patients.
