Abstract: To assess the feasibility of implementing data standards in Australian primary care dietetics practices. A mixed‐methods pragmatic study of dietitians working in primary care. Using a four‐point Likert scale, participants were surveyed on their baseline use of the 45 business and 33 clinical evidenced‐based data standards. The content validity index and kappa statistic for each standard were calculated with a kappa statistic of 0.60–0.74 considered ‘Good’ and 0.74 ‘Excellent’. After 4 weeks of assessment, dietitians were surveyed on the feasibility of implementing each standard and standards in total. Qualitative feedback on enablers and barriers to implementing standards was gathered and triangulated with interviews with select participants. Forty‐five dietitians from every Australian state and territory completed both surveys (response rate: 100%). At baseline, 24% of business and 79% of clinical standards were rated ‘Good’ or ‘Excellent’ for current usage. The feasibility of implementing standards was rated ‘Good’ or ‘Excellent for 86% of the business and 97% of the clinical standards. Software, training and time limitations are enablers and barriers to implementing standards. Embedding data standards within dietetics practices are feasible and have broad applicability for assessing outcomes of care.

Abstract: The development of affective learning during healthcare student education is essential for professional practice. Current studies are limited to short‐term studies with medicine and nursing students. Longitudinal studies are emerging however, the research within allied health students remains scant. The present study investigates the value of simulation‐based learning activities in relation to affective learning among dietetic students. A double hermeneutic, interpretative phenomenological approach (IPA) approach was employed, followed by an analysis of the trajectory of participants' affective learning across three‐interview time points via the application of Krathwohl's affective learning levels. The simulation developed affective learning in four of the six participants, specifically in relation to their view of themselves as practitioners and their understanding of their future responsibilities to patient care. Three key themes were identified in the participants: (1) feeling of workforce readiness, (2) valuing lifelong learning and (3) attitudes towards interprofessional teamwork. This IPA methodology described dietetic students' affective learning development as they transitioned to practice as graduate health professionals. Simulation‐based learning is one activity that enhances students' learning in the affective domain and educators should consider its value within their programs

Abstract: The main aim of this study was to explore the views and perceptions of dietetic educators on their ability to assess communication skills of undergraduate student dietitians in a telehealth setting. A secondary aim was to provide recommendations to educators when assessing these skills using telehealth. A descriptive qualitative study design was used. Australian and New-Zealand dietetic educators used a validated global communication rating scale to evaluate three pre-recorded telehealth encounters. Educators then answered a series of open-ended questions on their ability to assessed communication skills in the telehealth environment. Inductive analysis allowed the emergence of themes and sub-themes independent of a specific framework or theory. Peer debriefing and triangulation increased research rigor. Twenty-four educators were included in this study with the majority (87.5%) having & 10 years experience as a dietetic educator, and 41.6% ( n = 10) with experience in assessing dietetics student using telehealth. Most (76%) educators reported the assessment of non-verbal communication skills were challenging in the telehealth environment. Five themes and 15 subthemes emerged relating to advice for students and educators when assessing communication skills and a checklist was developed from recommendations that students and educators can use when preparing, planning, implementing, and assessing telehealth consultations. Assessing student communication skills via telehealth provides a useful opportunity with the growing use of the online environment, however, it also presents challenges that must be taken into consideration. While verbal communication skills are easier to assess than non-verbal, both need to be adapted for the telehealth setting.

Abstract: In this manuscript, we report the refractive-index (RI) modulation of various concentrations of nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N@C-dots) embedded in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) polymer. The dispersion and size distribution of N@C-dots embedded within PVA have been investigated using electron microscopy. The RI of PVA-N@C-dots can be enhanced by increasing the doping concentration of highly fluorescent C-dots (quantum yield 44%). This is demonstrated using ultraviolet-visible (UV-visible), photoluminscence, Raman, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy measurements. The Mie scattering of light on N@C-dots was applied for developing the relationship between RI tuning and absorption cross section of N@C-dots. The extinction cross section of N@C-dot thin films can be rapidly enhanced by either tuning the RI or increasing the concentration of N@C-dots. The developed method can be used as effective RI contrast for various applications such as holography creation and bioimaging.
