Cory Sessum, M.Sc., CNIM, a Clinical Manager at Invenio Imaging and a DHSc student, has had his research on critical tissue imaging and triaging published by Scientific Research Publishing in the Case Reports in Clinical Medicine Journal. His research team utilized the knowledge-to-action framework model, taught in the DHSc program, to identify sources of Cryptococcus infections, as well as respective interventions that will effectively decrease repeat procedures and mortality rates for patients undergoing robotic bronchoscopies. The case report aims to impact facilities with high exposure to fungal and bacterial infections by recognizing barriers, facilitators to knowledge use, and the optimal intervention of an intraoperative diagnostic tool.
“I would not have been able to get this article published without the knowledge and skills I learned throughout my time in the DHSc program. The application of research methods, knowledge translation, and framework shaped our case report, and I strongly believe this process is what helped us get selected for publication,” said Sessum.
Assistant professor and advisor, Lisa Paganotti, PhD, PA-C, commented on this prestigious accomplishment, stating that “scientific research publishing is a competitive process, making Cory’s publication wonderful news. I'm thrilled to hear the DHSc course materials have had a practical application in Cory’s professional practice – this is exactly what we hope for in the DHSc program!”
