Association between superior labial frenum and maxillary midline diastema - a systematic review

Tadros, Sandra; Ben-Dov, Tom; Catháin, Éadaoin Ó; Anglin, Carlita; April, Max M
BACKGROUND:Pediatric otolaryngologists have seen an increased focus on upper lip frenum as a possible culprit for feeding difficulties and the development of maxillary midline diastema (MMD). This increase may be encouraged by parents' exposure to medical advice over the internet about breastfeeding and potential long-term aesthetic concerns for their children. Subsequently, there has been increased pressure on pediatric otolaryngologists to perform superior labial frenectomies. There has been a reported 10-fold increase in frenectomies since the year 2000. However, there is no consensus within the literature regarding the benefit of superior labial frenectomy in preventing midline diastema. OBJECTIVE:To provide physicians and parents with the most updated information by systematically reviewing the available literature for the association between superior labial frenum and midline diastema. METHODS:A literature search was performed in MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and Dental and Oral Sciences Source (DOSS). Using the Covidence platform, a systematic review was conducted. The initial 314 articles identified underwent systematic review and 11 studies were included in the final review. RESULTS/DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS:Available data, primarily from the dental literature, showed that two subtypes of frenum: papillary and papillary penetrating frenum, are associated with maxillary midline diastema. Superior labial frenectomy should be delayed until permanent lateral incisors have erupted, as this can spontaneously close the physiological MMD. Current literature recommends against frenectomy before addressing the diastema with orthodontics, which helps to prevent diastema relapse. It is also imperative to rule out other odontogenic and oral cavity causes of diastema, such as thumb sucking, dental agenesis, and other causes. Online information may not always be fully representative and should be interpreted in the full context of the patient's medical history before referral for surgical intervention.

Reflecting Art in Nursing Practice: Developing Visual Arts Programs to Transform and Strengthen Practice

Anglin, Carlita; Halpin-Healy, Carolyn; Rosenfeld, Peri
Despite evidence of its positive impact on observation, description, empathy, and self-care, few arts-related professional development opportunities exist for nurses in practice settings. This academic medical center launched a 4-part visual arts-humanities professional development workshop for RNs to enhance their clinical skills through reflective activities and guided conversations of art. Participating RNs provided written feedback of their impressions and reflections on course content and potential personal growth. Participants reported profound changes in their self-awareness in multiple areas, and 3 consistent themes emerged: 1) seeing as enhanced observation; 2) attunement, and 3) thinking shifts. The workshop also provided respite from patient care demands for professional development and opportunities to cultivate collegial relationships among nurses from different areas and units. These findings underscore the value of the Quadruple Aim, which focuses on workplace practices that promote a sense of well-being and meaning at work. Consistent support from the chief nursing officer and nursing leadership was essential to the success of the program.

Meta-Synthesis on Migraine Management

Minen, Mia T; Anglin, Carlita; Boubour, Alexandra; Squires, Allison; Herrmann, Linda
BACKGROUND: Migraine is one of the top 10 most disabling conditions among adults worldwide. Most migraine research is quantitative and indicates concerns about medication adherence, stigma, and more. Qualitative studies might reveal an improved understanding of migraine patients' perspectives regarding migraine treatment. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to synthesize the qualitative research on migraine patients' perspectives regarding migraine treatment to (a) identify common patterns across various types of migraine treatment studies and (b) inform future research. METHODS: A systematic search for qualitative studies in the HA (HA) literature was conducted in Medline (PubMed), PsycINFO, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Joanna Briggs Institute EBP Database, and The Cochrane Library. Search terms (subject headings and keywords) were HA, HA disorders, migraine, qualitative studies, and qualitative research. Qualitative studies were systematically identified by using published qualitative search filters recommended by The InterTASC Information Specialists' Sub-Group (ISSG). The search was limited to English only, peer reviewed publications, and studies published between 1996 and 2016. For screening, additional inclusion criteria were (1) adult migraine patients; (2) must mention treatment in the title or study design of the abstract. Ten studies met the inclusion criteria. The Critical Appraisal Skills Program tool was applied to appraise study quality. Thematic analysis produced the codes and themes. Two authors read articles separately and individually created codes. Code lists were synthesized and themes emerged iteratively from the process. RESULTS: Study sample sizes ranged from 10 to 33 participants, with our findings representing 161 participants. Data were collected either using interviews or focus groups. The more common methodologies were grounded theory and phenomenology. Few (3) studies described the number of headache (HA) days for inclusion in the study. Eight out of 10 used International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD) criteria. Our synthesis produced five major themes. The first theme was "Migraine patients' difficulties with health care utilization," and it included issues surrounding the cost of migraine treatment (seeing providers and prescription medications). The second theme was "Migraine patients' perceived relationships with their providers," which included the role and relationship with the provider, as well as trust in the provider and the providers' knowledge in managing HAs. The third theme was "Thoughts about the various migraine treatments." It was based on patients' comments indicating an aversion to prescription medications, the use of non-pharmacological interventions for treatment, behavioral modification as a form of treatment, and the need for additional treatment options. The fourth and fifth themes were "Understanding diagnosis/triggers" and "Societal implications," respectively. The latter theme included feelings of not being taken seriously and issues surrounding quality of life. DISCUSSION: The metasynthesis revealed several key commonalities regarding patients' perspectives on migraine treatment and identified new areas for research using a qualitative approach. Researchers conducting qualitative research with patients experiencing migraines might consider using and reporting more of the inclusion and exclusion criteria commonly used in migraine research, for example, reporting whether the ICHD criteria were used and the number of HA days for patients to be in a study. Future studies might be done to determine how the role of allied health care providers, for example, pharmacists, physical therapists, and psychologists, might be expanded to help with migraine treatment and ultimately to improve patient outcomes.

Sickle Cell Disease

Anglin, Carlita
Sickle cell disease describes a group of hereditary blood disorders that have a significant impact on the lives of affected individuals. Sickle cell disease is usually chronic and challenging to manage. It requires affected individuals to face a lifetime of ongoing treatment, starting with twice-daily penicillin regimens from six months of age to five years and progressing through ongoing, lifelong treatments into adulthood depending on an individual's unique situation. Although long-term outcomes are much improved in recent years with the development of the drug hydroxyurea and even stem cell transplant, there is still much information for consumers to untangle. Due to the complexity of treatment options and the complexity of the underlying genetic information, families affected by sickle cell disease need to know where to find reliable information online that can help support understanding and informed decision making.

Supporting Patient Education and Safety Using an Online Patient Education Handout Database

Willcox, Sallie; Anglin, Carlita; Dement, Fritz; Spore, Stuart; Schanback, Mindy
The New York University (NYU) Langone Medical Center Patient Education Handout Database, used largely by clinicians to connect patients with timely Joint Commission-compliant patient education materials, was converted from a paper-based to an online database-generated system. This change required the participation of a multidisciplinary team made up of hospital and library staff to select, construct, and maintain the database, craft an end-user web interface, and create and sustain metadata that allows for faceted searching. Greener and more nimble, the system enhances patient safety by allowing for instantaneous updates of outdated material, immediate inclusion of new hospital-vetted information, and on-demand printouts in multiple languages
