Significant advances have been made in correctional research over the past decade. The research has highlighted the key elements of effective correctional assessment and treatment. However, organizations that wish to engage in effective correctional services by implementing the findings of correctional research have been given minimal practical guidance. This article discusses the experience of one probation department and its implementation of a risk and needs assessment tool as part of the daily practice of the organization. The implementation steps are identified as well as the challenges faced and the lessons learned.
The results of our study indicate that BMI is not noticeably associated with severity of bleeding or functional outcome in patients with SAH. This finding was discovered after performing a multivariate analysis adjusting for age where older age was associated with worsened severity and outcome.
We found a significant association between higher NSE levels and poorer clinical presentations and worse outcomes. Although it is still early for any relevant clinical conclusions, our results suggest that NSE holds promise as a tool for screening patients at increased risk of poor outcomes after SAH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
