After a successful start in September, Research on Tap returns October 19 at 6:30 pm at The Wave, the UPEI campus pub in the W.A. Murphy Student Centre. Dr. Janet Bryanton, professor in the Faculty of Nursing at UPEI, will lead a discussion about women who seek planned caesareans due to fear of childbirth. Giving birth is a significant life experience for women. Fear of childbirth is not a new phenomenon, and it can occur at any time before, during, and after birth. Sometimes, the fear of childbirth leads to women asking for a planned caesarean section. Researchers do not have a clear understanding of this experience. Dr. Bryanton explored women鈥檚 experiences of fear in relation to their decision to have a planned cesarean birth. In her presentation, Dr. Bryanton will speak about the 16 women who shared their experiences with fear of childbirth. Research on Tap is a series of public discussions led by UPEI researchers.  For more information, please email gsa@upei.ca.

Please join us for a very special presentation by a distinguished visitor from the University of Malta, Dr. Josef Trapani. Dr. Trapani holds Bachelor鈥檚 and Master鈥檚 degrees from the University of Malta and a PhD from the University of Brighton. He is Lecturer in the University of Malta鈥檚 Faculty of Health Sciences and is the International Coordinator for that university鈥檚 Department of Nursing. His main academic interests include critical care nursing, clinical decision making, evidence-based practice, e-learning, health promotion, qualitative research methodologies, and Maltese linguistics. On Thursday, October 19th, Dr. Trapani will speak about 鈥淩eferring in Critical Care: Nurses as Dual Agents鈥�. Research indicates that one of the most frequent nursing decisions is that of seeking help from medical, nursing, or other health care practitioners; yet, there is very limited research around the factors related to, and the actual process of, such referring. Dr. Trapani鈥檚 study sought to address this research gap by exploring the factors associated with critical care nurses鈥� decisions to seek help from doctors, and to explain the process of referral in the context of an intensive care unit by means of a substantive theory derived from the data.
