Elsevier, the information analytics business specialising in science and health, has introduced a new version of the Health Education Systems Inc (
HESI) assessment platform, it was reported yesterday.
Outcomes were measured at the beginning of the project using one version of the
HESI medical-surgical specialty exam; another version was used at the end of the project.
We calculated the PNC
HESI for the United States on a monthly basis from January 1984 through September 2008 in order to observe its behavior throughout the business cycle, as shown in Figure 1.
METHOD The integrative review method of Whittemore and Knafl was used to search and evaluate the existing evidence to answer the following research questions: a) What is the current utilization of the
HESI examinations in baccalaureate nursing education?
The experimental program of the
HESI Genomics Committee clearly demonstrated that it is possible to replicate data on biologic pathways across laboratories and technical platforms (Kramer et al.
Although statistical analysis using the
HESI midcurricular exam as a covariate confirmed findings of no difference in performance for the final exam, the cohort participating in the flipped classroom treatment performed better on the three unit tests during the course.
Clearly, toxicogenomics has come a long way in the short time since the
HESI committee was first established.
Applicants for both the ABSN and traditional program completed 66 hours of prerequisite courses with a minimum GPA of 3.0 in science courses and took a nursing entrance test (
HESI or NET).
To this end, in 1999 the membership of the nonprofit scientific research organization, the International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (
HESI) initiated a collaborative scientific program--the
HESI Committee on the Application of Genomics to Mechanism-Based Risk Assessment--to address issues, challenges, and opportunities afforded by toxicogenomics (Robinson et al.
Chapter 12 offers some concluding methodological observations, responding in particular to two earlier assessments of the
Hesi project by this reviewer (both in 1981).
