Title Suctioning adults with an artifical airway: A systematic review Type Book Whole
Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal Subscriber access at the Joanna Briggs Institute
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Evidence-based medicine; Nursing research
Abstract This systematic review was conducted by the New Zealand Centre for Evidence Based Nursing, a collaborating centre of The Joanna Briggs Institute for Evidence Based Nursing and Midwifery. The aim was to present the best available evidence on interventions, which are effective in preventing or reducing the prevalence of complications associated with suctioning, in hospitalised adult patients with an artificial airway who are breathing spontaneously or are artificially ventilated and who require suctioning. The specific questions addressed were as follows: Which methods of suctioning reduce the prevalence of mucosal trauma or mucosal dysfunction, and promote the removal of respiratory secretions? Which techniques or methods are effective in reducing the occurrence of suctioning -induced hypoxaemia, during or following the suctioning procedure? Which techniques or methods are effective in minimising the haemodynamic or pulmonary complications associated with the suctioning procedure?

Title Preventing post-anaesthetic shaking Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 6 Issue 10 Pages 22-24
Keywords Surgery; Evidence-based medicine; Nursing; Guidelines
Abstract The author presents her experience investigating the incidence of post-anaesthetic shaking in the recovery room ward, and develops a clinical tool for its treatment. Several theories about post-anaesthetic shaking are examined. The cases of 1296 patients who had major regional or general anaesthetics over four consecutive months in the previous year are studied. The incidence of post-anaesthetic shaking and correlating core body temperature readings with post-anaesthetic shaking are examined. A protocol for reducing/treating post-anaesthetic shaking is developed on the basis of the findings of the study.

Title Using paracetamol before immunisation: Does it work? Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication Kai Tiaki: Nursing New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 5 Pages 24-26
Keywords Immunisation; Paediatric nursing; Evidence-based medicine
Abstract The author presents a review of evidence on the prophylactic use of paracetamol prior to infant and child immunisation. The research was prompted when the Otago District Health Board was planning its Meningococcal B strategy. The evidence suggests that it was appropriate when the whole cell pertussis vaccine was used, but it was not recommended since the introduction of better vaccines such as acellular pertussis with fewer antigens and fewer side effects. Paracetamol may still be given orally to treat pain and fever that occasionally follows vaccination. Paracetamol pharmacology is presented, along with alternatives to paracetamol.
