Clinical judgment, one’s ability to think like a nurse, is an essential skill for safe nursing practice. With the rise of simulation to replace clinical experiences, there is limited evidence regarding the effectiveness of simulation on the development of clinical judgment. This study explored differences in clinical judgment in maternal–newborn co...

... While there is supporting evidence indicating that HFS positively impacts students' learning, several studies did not find significant improvement in the effect of HFS on critical thinking scores (Knoesel, 2017;Son, 2020;Wood & Toronto, 2012), perceived self-confidence (Merriman et al., 2014;Woda et al., 2017;Young & Jung, 2015) and clinical decision-making (Cobbett & Snelgrove-Clarke, 2016). Other studies though identified that HFS seems to have more consistent positive and significant effects on clinical performance (Lee et al., 2016;Merriman et al. 2014;Reid et al., 2020). Cant and Cooper (2017) reported that the inconsistency of results might be due to a lack of high-quality study designs and the use of a constellation of instruments. ...

... A recent Cochrane systematic review states that "Supplementing pregnant women with vitamin D alone probably reduces the risk of pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, low birth weight and may reduce the risk of severe postpartum haemorrhage" [18]. Prenatal to postpartum supplementation can be an efficient intervention in increasing the mother's vitamin D status and in assuring an adequate vitamin D status in new-borns and breastfed infants [19], and is frequently required to achieve a sufficient vitamin D status in pregnant women [20]. The United Kingdom, for example, the Department of Health recommends that pregnant women take 400 IU vitamin D daily, to prevention of neonatal hypocalcaemia [21]. ...

... If the deficiency is not corrected early on, radiological changes such as rachitic rosary and craniotabes, decreased mineralization of bones, rib beading, metaphyseal band of relative lucency, mild cupping, or haziness of the distal end of the ulna or radius can be observed. [7][8][9][10] There are very few studies done on the ideal method of diagnosis of vitamin D deficiency in neonates. Hence, we performed this study to observe the diagnostic potential of cord vitamin D levels in term neonates a well as assessing the maternal factors influencing it. ...
