Stress and Prediabetes among Latinos

Feeling stress when you are dealing with a condition or illness is common. We want to understand what that stress is and feels like for Latino adults who have been told by a medical professional that they have prediabetes (or blood glucose that is higher than normal but not quite diabetes). Getting experiences with prediabetes will help up better understand how to measure it and help future healthcare providers better understand the needs of Latinos with prediabetes. El estrés del automanejo de una condición como prediabetes no es fácil. En este estudio estamos interesados en entender las experiences de adultos Latinos con prediabetes. El objetivo es mejorar como profesionales de salud interactúan con Latinos con prediabetes para mejorar su calidad de vida.

Changes in OBGYN Resident Surgical Skills and Confidence After implementation of a Pre-Urogynecology Rotation Bootcamp

The aim of this project is to assess the procedural skills of residents before and after implementation of a Urogynecology Resident Bootcamp prior to the start of their Urogynecology rotation. This bootcamp will include surgical simulations with a focus on vaginal hysterectomies. The bootcamp will also include assembly of a cystoscope and a video demonstrating cystoscopy during a urogynecologic surgery. As is currently routine in our program, residents will receive feedback using a formative feedback system called myTIPreport after they perform surgeries during the rotation. We hypothesize that this bootcamp will improve residents' feedback on performing a hysterectomy when compared to residents' feedback prior to implementation of this curriculum using myTIPreport. We will also evaluate if there is a change with overall resident satisfaction with the Urogynecology rotation and comfort level with performing vaginal hysterectomies in independent practice.

Antibiotics, Bacteria, and UTI Prevention Study

The purpose of this study is to compare the bacteria in women who are taking either methenamine hippurate (Hiprex) or nitrofurantoin (Macrobid, Macrodantin) every day to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). We will compare bacteria in the bladder, vagina, and rectum. The information we learn by doing this study may help us better understand how these medications work to prevent UTIs.
