Incivility in the OR

We are doing a research study to understand how being treated rudely affects the decisions of anesthesiology residents. We want to see if being treated badly makes it harder for them to make good decisions during their training. This is important because it can help us make the work environment better and improve patient care.

Instrumental Support for Democratic Norms

Conventional wisdom in the press has held that the Democratic party, whose base includes younger, marginal voters, benefits electorally from lower costs of voting. The issue of voting access is highly polarized, with Democratic politicians championing reforms that would make it easier to register and vote, and Republican politicians opposing these policies on the ground that they would lead to fraudulent voting. Mass partisans reflect this divide as well. To what degree is the difference in partisan support for increased access to voting reflective of instrumental concerns over which party benefits, rather than principled belief in expanding access to voting? We conduct an experiment to test this question, leveraging a recent shift in the propensity of Democrats to excel in low-turnout elections and the changing composition of unregistered voters. We present respondents with information to update their beliefs about who benefits from laws making it easier to register to vote in

Patient Reported Outcomes and Satisfaction of Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

We are looking to see how patients undergoing total shoulder replacement are rating their satisfaction and function with the results of their surgeries. We want to know what patients are describing in their pre and postoperative course so the field can better tailor the details surrounding care of the procedure to individuals undergoing these surgeries in the future.

Age-Based- Genomic Screening Caregiver Interviews

The University of North Carolina Age-Based Genomic Screening program is an innovative paradigm that aims to provide targeted and highly actionable genetic information to parents via their child's routine wellness visits. The final stage of the program involves a pilot study that will expand pediatric genetic screening in well-child care across the states. In preparation for this final stage, we will conduct interviews with parents or caregiver of children in North Carolina to inform an implementation plan, educational and training materials, and evaluation plan for the pilot study. The interviews will consist of questions aimed at assessing barriers and facilitators to the implementation of ABGS, including parents' and children's healthcare and genetic screening experiences (such as blood and saliva collection), perceptions and interest in the ABGS program, expectations and experiences with healthcare providers, and the information needed for participation decisions.

Development and Effect of an Electronic Learning Module on Defibrillator Competence in Anesthesia Providers

The purpose of this study is to find out if an online learning module can be just as effective as in-person training for teaching anesthesia residents how to use a defibrillator. A defibrillator is a machine that helps restart a person's heart when it stops beating. The study will look at how well the residents can perform important tasks, like using the defibrillator to deliver a shock to the heart, both right after they learn and four months later. The goal is to see if the online training works as well as traditional hands-on training and if the residents prefer one method over the other.

KCH Neonatal Mixed Method Outcome Study

Neonatal mortality remains a significant challenge in Malawi, despite the country's success in reducing overall childhood mortality. We have identified significant gaps in infection control and routine neonatal care in tertiary facilities. As more childbirths are occurring in health facilities, it is crucial to identify areas for improvement and address these in each facility to enhance the quality of neonatal care. This study proposes a team-based approach to identifying areas for improvement with a high potential to significantly impact neonatal survival in surgical neonates. By including a wide range of individuals - from those working in the unit to providers interacting with the team to hospital leadership - we can design robust interventions with the potential for successful implementation and propagation. Our study proposes a reproducible model that other neonatal services or facilities may replicate. An additional benefit of a qualitative research-informed approach is empowering all team members to improve
