Pachylyroceras

description: Pachylyroceras Ruzhencev and Bogoslovskaya, 1971
Type species: Lyrogoniatites cloudi Miller and Youngquist, 1948 [original designation].
Genus diagnosis: Representatives of the family Neoglyphioceratidae with subevolute conch, which becomes more evolute in the adult stage. 20–30 coarse spiral lines, growth lines, and shell constrictions concavo-convex with shallow ventral sinus. Suture line with rather narrow external lobe, usually with slightly sinuous flanks.
Included species:
cloudi: Lyrogoniatites cloudi Miller and Youngquist, 1948, p. 660; Texas.
utahense: Lyrogoniatites utahensis Miller, Youngquist and Nielsen, 1952, p. 154; Utah.
Discussion: When they introduced the genus Pachylyroceras, Ruzhencev and Bogoslovskaya (1971) assumed that certain Uralian specimens and the types for Lyrogoniatites cloudi from the Barnett Shale were conspecific. As a result, they based Pachylyroceras on the types of L. cloudi from Texas, rather than the Uralian material they had in their collections and erected three new species, P. angustum, P. consequens, and P. constrictum. We see significant differences in the course of growth lines in all of the Uralian specimens (ventral salient) versus the Texas types of Pachylyroceras (ventral sulcus), and conclude that the genus, which is closely related to Neoglyphioceras, is currently known only from North America.
This excludes all of the Uralian material from Pachylyroceras, and given that there is no existing genus to accommodate these widely umbilicate Neoglyphioceras -like forms with ventral salient in their growth lines and constrictions, we erect the new genus Uralyroceras for the Uralian species (see below).
According to its conch morphology, suture line, and ornament, Pachylyroceras has an intermediate position between Neoglyphioceras and Lyrogoniatites. It possesses the type of shell constrictions with ventral sinus of Neoglyphioceras but the subevolute conch morphology of Lyrogoniatites. In the suture line, Pachylyroceras shows the sinuous flanks of the external lobe like Neoglyphioceras, but at the same time, the external lobe is rather narrow with weakly diverging flanks like in Lyrogoniatites.

description: Two elements $g$ and $h$ of a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $V$ are said to be intersecting if $g(v) = h(v)$ for some $v \in V$. More generally, a subset ${\cal F}$ of $G$ is an intersecting set if every pair of elements of ${\cal F}$ is intersecting. The intersection density $ρ(G)$ of a transitive permutation group $G$ is the maximum value of the quotient $|{\cal F}|/|G_v|$ where $G_v$ is a stabilizer of $v\in V$ and ${\cal F}$ runs over all intersecting sets in $G$. Intersection densities of transitive groups of degree $pq$, where $p>q$ are odd primes, is considered. In particular, the conjecture that the intersection density of every such group is equal to $1$ (posed in [ J.~Combin. Theory, Ser. A 180 (2021), 105390]) is disproved by constructing a family of imprimitive permutation groups of degree $pq$ (with blocks of size $q$), where $p=(q^k-1)/(q-1)$, whose intersection density is equal to $q$. The construction depends heavily on certain equidistant cyclic codes $[p,k]_q$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_q$ whose codewords have Hamming weight strictly smaller than $p$.

description: We derive target mass corrections (TMC) for the spin-dependent nucleon structure function g1 and polarization asymmetry A1 in collinear factorization at leading twist. The TMCs are found to be significant for g1 at large xB, even at relatively high Q^2 values, but largely cancel in A1. A comparison of TMCs obtained from collinear factorization and from the operator product expansion shows that at low Q^2 the corrections drive the proton A1 in opposite directions.

description: From the practitioner’s perspective, the study of African music seems misaligned with the enterprise of indigenous African music. Consequently, attendant fabrications (usually packaged as theories and/or philosophies on the phenomenon by scholars) are self- serving, and at worst, moot. Furthermore, against the backdrop of African development, these theories seem to be barely relevant as far as the advancement of scholarship in African music is concerned. This chapter is based on a study that examined peculiarities of the indigenous African music phenomenon, especially its constructs, abstractions and philosophies. To be precise, the study aimed to highlight the inadequacies of canonised (ethno- )musicological methodologies. To achieve this, participative observation, including interviews, was used to gather data about indigenous African music. Particular attention was given to the ideations and vocalisations of indigenous practitioners. Preliminary results show the existence of African ways of conceiving, comprehending and communicating knowledge about indigenous African music. For this reason, it becomes prudent to propose an Africa-sensed musicology capable of harnessing the best of both worlds; scholarship on the one hand and African folkloric epistemologies on the other.

description: End-to-end AutoML has attracted intensive interests from both academia and industry, which automatically searches for ML pipelines in a space induced by feature engineering, algorithm/model selection, and hyper-parameter tuning. Existing AutoML systems, however, suffer from scalability issues when applying to application domains with large, high-dimensional search spaces. We present VolcanoML, a scalable and extensible framework that facilitates systematic exploration of large AutoML search spaces. VolcanoML introduces and implements basic building blocks that decompose a large search space into smaller ones, and allows users to utilize these building blocks to compose an execution plan for the AutoML problem at hand. VolcanoML further supports a Volcano-style execution model - akin to the one supported by modern database systems - to execute the plan constructed. Our evaluation demonstrates that, not only does VolcanoML raise the level of expressiveness for search space decomposition in AutoML, it also leads to actual findings of decomposition strategies that are significantly more efficient than the ones employed by state-of-the-art AutoML systems such as auto-sklearn.

description: Este artigo aborda as implicações do recurso a ativos virtuais na investigação económico-financeira, analisando a sua origem e história, bem como a sua regulamentação. É apresentada uma visão geral dos atores envolvidos no combate à criminalidade económico-financeira, destacando-se a Guarda Nacional Republicana - Unidade de Ação Fiscal.


Outro resultado importante deste estudo é a constatação de que os crimes relacionados com ativos virtuais não se limitam à lavagem de dinheiro, mas incluem também outros crimes, como extorsão, roubo e fraude, entre outros. O estudo destaca, também, que as investigação e combate aos crimes relacionados com ativos virtuais exige a colaboração entre diferentes atores, incluindo a polícia, o setor privado e organizações internacionais.


Conclui-se que o recurso a ativos virtuais pode trazer benefícios, mas também desafios significativos para a investigação económico-financeira. É necessária uma maior colaboração entre os atores envolvidos e a atualização da regulamentação existente para garantir uma investigação eficaz e a prevenção da consumação de ilícitos criminais com recurso a esses ativos. A apreensão dos ativos virtuais é também um desafio, sendo necessário encontrar formas de superar essas dificuldades, como a formação dos investigadores e a cooperação internacional.


Em suma, este estudo destaca que o recurso a ativos virtuais representa um desafio para a investigação económico-financeira, mas que a colaboração entre diferentes instituições e a regulamentação adequada podem contribuir para reduzir o uso destes ativos em atividades criminosas e facilitar a investigação e combate aos crimes económico-financeiros.

description: Solar wind magnetic fluctuations exhibit anisotropy due to the presence of a mean magnetic field in the form of the Parker spiral. Close to the Sun, direct measurements were not available until the recently launched Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission. The nature of anisotropy and geometry of the magnetic fluctuations play a fundamental role in dissipation processes and in the transport of energetic particles in space. Using PSP data, we present measurements of geometry and anisotropy of the inner heliosphere magnetic fluctuations, from fluid to kinetic scales. The results are surprising and different from 1 au observations. We find that fluctuations evolve characteristically with size scale. However, unlike 1 au solar wind, at the outer scale, the fluctuations are dominated by wavevectors quasi-parallel to the local magnetic field. In the inertial range, average wave vectors become less field-aligned, but still remain more field aligned than near-Earth solar wind. In the dissipation range, the wavevectors become almost perpendicular to the local magnetic field in the dissipation range, to a much higher degree than those indicated by 1 au observations. We propose that this reduced degree of anisotropy in the outer scale and inertial range is due to the nature of large-scale forcing outside the solar corona.

description: A lattice field theory approach to the statistical mechanics of charged polymers in electrolyte solutions [S. Tsonchev, R. D. Coalson, and A. Duncan, Phys. Rev. E 60, 4257, (1999)] is applied to the study of a polymer chain contained in a spherical cavity but able to diffuse into a surrounding gel. The distribution of the polymer chain between the cavity and the gel is described by its partition coefficient, which is computed as a function of the number of monomers in the chain, the monomer charge, and the ion concentrations in the solution.

description: We present a family of scale-free network model consisting of cliques, which is established by a simple recursive algorithm. We investigate the networks both analytically and numerically. The obtained analytical solutions show that the networks follow a power-law degree distribution, with degree exponent continuously tuned between 2 and 3. The exact expression of clustering coefficient is also provided for the networks. Furthermore, the investigation of the average path length reveals that the networks possess small-world feature. Interestingly, we find that a special case of our model can be mapped into the Yule process.

description: We find that in two dimensions wires can crumple into different morphologies and present the associated morphological phase diagram. Our results are based on experiments with different metallic wires and confirmed by numerical simulations using a discrete element model. We show that during crumpling, the number of loops increases according to a power-law with different exponents in each morphology. Furthermore, we observe a power-law divergence of the structure's bulk stiffness similar to what is observed in forced crumpling of membranes.
Management of laboratories : examining symbolic and substantive outcomes
Creators: name: Pickard, Lynette Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Pfeffer (1981) contends that the role of the manager is chiefly symbolic. The purpose of this study was to investigate his claims that the manager's effect is primarily on symbolic outcomes and less on substantive outcomes; that external power holders have a small effect on symbolic outcomes; and that substantive and symbolic aspects of organizational activity are loosely linked. Two hospital laboratories in Western Canada (similar along many dimensions) were chosen for inclusion in the study. Through observation, interviewing and examination of records, the researcher obtained information on relationships between the actions of managers and other power holders and substantive and symbolic outcomes. Pfeffer's theory was used to form the classification system for categorizing findings. In addition to a deductive approach, the researcher attempted to discover patterns from the data. Steps were taken to check potential sources of invalidity. Study findings indicated that external power holders have a small effect on symbolic outcomes. Pfeffer's claim that management has a greater impact on beliefs, attitudes and feelings than on tangible outcomes was not supported. Reasons for this may be that managerial effect on symbolic outcomes is contingent on managerial motivation, type of symbolic action, level of management, type of organization and time in the organizational life cycle. There was little evidence to support Pfeffer's claim that substantive and symbolic aspects of organizational activity are imperfectly linked. The explanation of this appears to be that factors affecting the strength of coupling differ with the type of symbolic action employed and with the existence (or absence) of efforts to make the use of power unobtrusive. Concepts which emerged from data captured ideas not contained in Pfeffer's writings. For example, managers and external power holders may have an intentional and unintentional influence on beliefs and attitudes; and proximity to/distance from the organization influences the extent to which external power holders affect symbolic outcomes. Increased understanding of the variables affecting the relationship between symbolic and substantive outcomes and the magnitude of the manager's impact on substantive versus symbolic outcomes, may be utilized by future researchers.
MEASUREMENT-BASED CARE FOR DEPRESSION

description: Measurement-based care (MBC) has not been widely adopted in behavioral health (BH), which is a requirement of a recently revised care, treatment, and services standard for accreditation in BH settings (The Joint Commission [TJC], 2017). The purpose of this quality improvement (QI) project was to develop, implement, and evaluate an MBC Depression Protocol using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). This was implemented to monitor progress and assure compliance with regulatory requirements for safe, effective and measurable care for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). In this study, a convenience sample of 44 BH personnel was educated and evaluated on a newly created “MBC of Depression Protocol at the St. Joseph Hospital of Orange.” Deidentified PHQ-9 scores of MDD patients were analyzed, and protocol adherence by outpatient BH personnel was measured. In-service knowledge and confidence scores improved by approximately 32% (n=44). Protocol adherence by the outpatient staff met the target of 3 (100%) PHQ-9 surveys per patient. The mean aggregate change in PHQ-9 scores over episodes of care was 56% (n = 20) indicating a significant response to treatment. MBC will lead to improved patient-centric care by quantifying the outcomes of care, treatment, and services provided to patients. PHQ-9 monitoring may function as a “lab” test for depression.

description: Combining the recent lattice calculation of $a_0(1450)$ and $σ(600)$ mesons with the overlap fermion in the chiral regime with the pion mass less than $300 {\rm MeV}$, the quenched lattice calculation of the scalar glueball, and the phenomenological study of the mixing of isoscalar scalar mesons $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_0(1370)$ through their decays, a simple pattern for the light scalar mesons begins to emerge. Below 1 GeV, the scalar mesons form a nonet of tetraquark mesoniums. Above 1 GeV, the nonent $q\bar{q}$ mesons are made of an octet with largely unbroken SU(3) symmetry and a fairly good singlet which is $f_0(1370)$. $f_0(1710)$ is identified as an almost pure scalar glueball with a $\sim 10%$ mixture of $q\bar{q}$.

Examination of the design procedures for drainage/subirrigation systems in the lower Fraser Valley, British Columbia
Creators: name: Prasher, Shiv Om
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Techniques for designing drainage/subirrigation systems in the Lower Fraser Valley of British Columbia are examined in the present study. An attempt was made to formally define the overall goal in the design of such systems. Various difficulties were encountered in proceeding formally in the design. Therefore, a "branch and bound" approach was used in which a series of studies are conducted to focus our attention on the key issues of the problem and to regroup or eliminate other issues of secondary importance. A simple study showed that drainage designs seemed to be the limiting factors in drainage/subirrigation system designs for the Lower Fraser Valley. Therefore, subirrigation design was not considered in further analyses. The drainage requirements for different seasons were discussed. It was suggested that a drainage system designed to meet workability requirements in early spring should be more than sufficient to meet other seasonal requirements of interest from a drainage point of view. It was suggested that these requirements will be met by designing a drainage system that ensures at least one workable period of twelve days in March. A Markov chain model was proposed that can simulate the transitions in the water table elevations in response to weather. Design curves were presented for some local soils that can aid designers to perform drainage designs that satisfy requirements of the individual farmers. A study was undertaken to investigate the importance of uncertainty in soil parameters on the drainage system design. First and second order methods of analyzing uncertainty were applied to Hooghoudt's equation of designing drainage systems. The applicability of the uncertainty approach was extended to the numerical model of designing drainage systems based on the Boussinesq equation. An example problem was solved to illustrate how a drainage design criterion can be formulated when uncertainties due to both the climate and the soil parameters are present at the same time. Conclusions were drawn from the present study and recommendations were made for future work. The environmental impacts of agricultural drainage were discussed. They are included in the appendix because the main thrust of the thesis was on the design of drainage/subirrigation systems. Also, a design methodology was proposed in the appendix that can be used in designing drainage systems on a steady state basis in the absence of any knowledge about the saturated hydraulic conductivity of the soil or the location of the impermeable layer.

From Quantum Link Models to D-Theory: A Resource Efficient Framework for the Quantum Simulation and Computation of Gauge Theories
Creators: name: Wiese, Uwe-Jens
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum link models provide an extension of Wilson's lattice gauge theory in which the link Hilbert space is finite-dimensional and corresponds to a representation of an embedding algebra. In contrast to Wilson's parallel transporters, quantum links are intrinsically quantum degrees of freedom. In D-theory these discrete variables undergo dimensional reduction, thus giving rise to asymptotically free theories. In this way (1+1)-d CP(N-1) models emerge by dimensional reduction from (2+1)-d SU(N) quantum spin ladders, the (2+1)-d confining U(1) gauge theory emerges from the Abelian Coulomb phase of a (3+1)-d quantum link model, and (3+1)-d QCD arises from a non-Abelian Coulomb phase of a (4+1)-d SU(3) quantum link model, with chiral quarks arising naturally as domain wall fermions. Thanks to their finite-dimensional Hilbert space and their economical mechanism of reaching the continuum limit by dimensional reduction, quantum link models provide a resource efficient framework for the quantum simulation and computation of gauge theories.

Gluelump model with transverse constituent gluons

description: We show that C-odd gluelumps can be successfully described as bound states of a single transverse constituent gluon evolving in the flux-tube-like potential generated by a static color-octet source. The use of a helicity degree of freedom rather than a spin one for the constituent gluon forbids the states that are not observed in lattice QCD. Our model leads to a gluelump mass spectrum in remarkable agreement with the available lattice data provided that an additional parity-splitting mass term is introduced. We argue that such a term is due to instanton-induced interactions in gluelumps.

description: We demonstrate the feasibility of the time-linear scaling formulation of the $GW$ method [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 124}, 076601 (2020)] for {\it ab initio} simulations of optically driven two-dimensional materials. The time-dependent $GW$ equations are derived and solved numerically in the basis of Bloch states. We address carrier multiplication and relaxation in photo-excited graphene and find deviations from the typical exponential behavior predicted by the Markovian Boltzmann approach. For resonantly pumped semiconductor we discover a self-sustained screening cascade leading to the Mott transition of coherent excitons. Our results draw attention to the importance of non-Markovian and dynamical screening effects in out-of-equilibrium phenomena.

description: The properties of an unconventional, single mode phonon bath coupled to a quantum dot, are investigated within the rotating wave approximation. The electron current through the dot induces an out of equilibrium bath, with a phonon distribution qualitatively different from the thermal one. In selected transport regimes, such a distribution is characterized by a peculiar selective population of few phonon modes and can exhibit a sub-Poissonian behavior. It is shown that such a sub-Poissonian behavior is favored by a double occupancy of the dot. The crossover from a unequilibrated to a conventional thermal bath is explored, and the limitations of the rotating wave approximation are discussed.

description: Recursion relations are succinctly obtained for $(++... +)$ and $(-++... +)$ amplitudes in the context of the space-cone gauge in QCD. We rely on the helicity symmetry of the problems to dictate our choices of reference twistors and the momentum shifts to complexify the amplitudes. Of great importance is the power of gauge Lorentz invariance, which is enough to determine the soft factors in the latter cases.

description: Cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimetry has the potential to provide revolutionary advances in cosmology. Future experiments to detect the very weak B mode signal in CMB polarization maps will require unprecedented sensitivity and control of systematic errors. Bolometric interferometry may provide a way to achieve these goals. In a bolometric interferometer (or other adding interferometer), phase shift sequences are applied to the inputs in order to recover the visibilities. Noise is minimized when the phase shift sequences corresponding to all visibilities are orthogonal. We present a systematic method for finding sequences that produce this orthogonality, approximately minimizing both the length of the time sequence and the number of discrete phase shift values required. When some baselines are geometrically equivalent, we can choose sequences that read out those baselines simultaneously, which has been shown to improve signal to noise ratio.

A comparison of aerobic conditioning and stress inoculation as stress-management interventions
Creators: name: Long, Bonita Clarice
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The efficacy of an aerobic conditioning program (jogging) in modifying self-reported chronic intermittent stress is compared to stress-innoculation training (self-statement modification) and a waiting list control group. Guiding this research is a transactional model of stress. The participants were community residents; 48 were females and 25 were males. Therapy sessions were conducted over a 10-week period with subjects meeting in groups for 1 1/2 hours per week and also completing homework assignments and activities. The State and Trait Anxiety Inventories, the Tension Thermometer, a Thought-listing Technique and a Self-efficacy Scale were administered at pre, post, and three-month follow-up. In addition, a submaximal bicycle ergometer test was utilized to predict maximum oxygen uptake (a measure of cardiovascular fitness). Multivariate analyses of variance indicate that both the aerobic conditioning program and the stress-innoculation training were effective in reducing self-reported anxiety and increasing self-efficacy. These changes were maintained three months after completing the program. Subjects who experienced stress more cognltlvely than somatically reduced their level of stress from pre- to post-testlng significantly more than those who experienced stress more somatically, regardless of treatment condition. However, from post to follow-up the somatic subjects continued to improve while the cognitive subjects stayed approximately the same. Compared to the waiting list control group, subjects' positive self-statement ratings increased significantly from pre- to post-testing for the stress-inoculation group. Subjects' self-statement ratings and judges self-statement ratings changed differentially between groups and over time. Subjects in the aerobic conditioning program improved their cardiovascular fitness compared to the stress-inoculation and waiting list groups. Participation in an aerobic conditioning program was found to be a viable alternative to stress-innoculation training as a stress-management treatment. Although the pattern of changes differed between treatment groups and among types of individuals from pre- to post-testing on some measures, at three-months follow-up few differences were found between treatment groups.

description: The number of users approaching the world of cryptocurrencies exploded in the last years, and consequently the daily interactions on their underlying distributed ledgers have intensified. In this paper, we analyze the flow of these digital transactions in a certain period of time, trying to discover important insights on the typical use of these technologies by studying, through complex network theory, the patterns of interactions in four prominent and different Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs), namely Bitcoin, DogeCoin, Ethereum, Ripple. In particular, we describe the Distributed Ledger Network Analyzer (DiLeNA), a software tool for the investigation of the transactions network recorded in DLTs. We show that studying the network characteristics and peculiarities is of paramount importance, in order to understand how users interact in the DLT. For instance, our analyses reveal that all transaction graphs exhibit small world properties.

description: The optimized single-particle wave functions contained in the parameters of the Hubbard model (t and U) were determined for an infinite atomic chain. In effect, the electronic properties of the chain as a function of interatomic distance R were obtained and compared for the Lieb - Wu exact solution (LW), the Gutzwiller-Wave-Function approximation (GWF), and the Gutzwiller-ansatz case (GA). The ground state energy and other characteristics for the infinite chain were also compared with those obtained earlier for a nanoscopic chain within the Exact Diagonalization combined with an Ab Initio adjustment of the single-particle wave functions in the correlated state (EDABI method). For the sake of completeness, we briefly characterize also each of the solutions. Our approach completes the Lieb-Wu solution, as it provides the system electronic properties evolution as a function of physically controllable parameter - the interatomic distance.

description: We have performed a temperature-dependent angle-integrated laser photoemission study of iron oxypnictide superconductors LaFeAsO:F and LaFePO:F exhibiting critical transition temperatures (Tc's) of 26 K and 5 K, respectively. We find that high-Tc LaFeAsO:F exhibits a temperature-dependent pseudogap-like feature extending over ~0.1 eV about the Fermi level at 250 K, whereas such a feature is absent in low-Tc LaFePO:F. We also find ~20-meV pseudogap-like features and signatures of superconducting gaps both in LaFeAsO:F and LaFePO:F. We discuss the possible origins of the unusual pseudogap-like features through comparison with the high-Tc cuprates.

description: We compare several optical implementations of phase-covariant cloning machines. The experiments are based on copying of the polarization state of a single photon in bulk optics by special unbalanced beam splitter or by balanced beam splitter accompanied by a state filtering. Also the all-fiber based setup is discussed, where the information is encoded into spatial modes, i.e., the photon can propagate through two optical fibers. Each of the four implementations possesses some advantages and disadvantages that are discussed.

HEALTHCARE EXECUTIVES' HIRING PRACTICES OF ANESTHESIA PROVIDERS IN FREESTANDING AMBULATORY SURGICAL CENTERS
Creators: name: Marks, Amy
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: In California, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA) might practice as independent anesthesia providers at both inpatient and outpatient surgery centers. However, it is unclear whether CRNAs are being hired as independent anesthesia providers by the healthcare executives (HCEs) in the vast amount of free-standing Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) in California. The American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) set research priorities focused on gaining knowledge about HCEs’ perceptions of CRNAs. Guided by the need to explore decision-making factors when hiring an anesthesia provider, the author’s project sought to provide additional knowledge that would support recommendations for CRNA advocacy efforts. This included conducting a survey of HCEs at freestanding ASCs in California, regarding their perceptions and hiring practices of CRNAs and anesthesiologists. There were 665 surveys sent to HCEs through Qualtrics Survey Software, with 42 respondents. Out of the 27 HCEs who preferred to hire an anesthesiologist or a combination of an anesthesiologist and CRNAs, 15 (55.6%) were not aware of the current state and federal regulations regarding CRNA's independent standards of practice (SOP) in California. The other 12 (44.4%) were not sure or perceived that the surgeon had an increased risk of being held responsible for the anesthesia practices and could be held liable when utilizing CRNAs to deliver anesthesia services at ASCs. Ten (66.7%) of iv the HCEs who reported that they did not currently hire CRNAs did not understand state regulations and laws regarding CRNAs SOP. The results of this study were reported to the AANA, and recommendations were made that identified marketing strategies to mitigate misperceptions regarding CRNAs practices. One proposal to the AANA was to send representatives to the annual California Ambulatory Surgical Association (CASA) meeting to inform HCEs of CRNA SOP. A second recommendation highlighted the need for further research investigating patients’ perceptions of the care they received from CRNAs. Survey results would be shared with the HCEs at their ASCs, thereby informing HCEs of the quality care provided by CRNAs.
