August 2018

Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy presents the highlights of the August issue of AJN. Our first CE, “Original Research: Pain in Nonverbal Children with Medical Complexity: A Two-Year Retrospective Study,” describes the signs and symptoms parents of such children find worrisome, the sources of pain in these children, and how to best assess pain in this population. Our second CE, “A Review of the Revised Sepsis Care Bundles,” discusses recent revisions to the sepsis care guidelines, including development of the new one-hour bundle, plus screening and assessment tools to identify sepsis in the ICU, in the ED, on the medical–surgical unit, and outside the hospital. The authors of our next article, “Environments and Health: Nursing Practice and Particulate Matter Exposure,” provide an overview of particulate matter exposure and health, and management strategies for practice. “Transitions: Retired Nurse Volunteers” describes the benefits of using retired nurses to complement existing hospital staff. In addition, there’s News, Reflections, Drug Watch, Art of Nursing, and more.
