ABSTRACT Background Ample evidence has shown the benefit of high‐fidelity simulation (HFS) in promoting learning in pre‐licensure nursing students, but the evidence for practising registered nurses has not been synthesised. Objective To evaluate the effects of HFS training on learning outcomes and satisfaction in practising registered nurses.

Feasibility and usability of three consecutive nights with self‐applied, home polysomnography
Summary In‐laboratory polysomnography, the gold‐standard for diagnosing sleep disorders, is resource‐demanding and not conducive to multiple night evaluations. Ambulatory polysomnography, especially when self‐applied, could be a viable alternative. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of self‐applied polysomnography over three ...

Interventional human ocular safety experiments for 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C lamp irradiation
To directly assess the ocular safety of 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C (UVC) irradiation in humans, five subjects were exposed to 222‐nm UVC at doses of 22, 50, and 75 mJ/cm2. The findings indicate that far‐UVC irradiation does not cause “clinically significant photokeratitis” or long‐term ocular damage, though it may induce temporary discomfort.

Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Abstract Background Field transfusion of whole blood is vital for patients in hemorrhagic shock, particularly in austere or resource‐limited environments. Military use of warm fresh whole blood (WFWB) has inspired civilian interest in walking blood banks (WBBs) for rural, prehospital, and mass casualty settings where blood product access is limited ...

For bathtub cardiac arrests, buoyancy‐assisted extrication without draining is faster and more successful than the conventional method. This universally applicable technique for lay rescuers facilitates quicker initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation and challenges current public guidelines to first drain the tub.
