All data during first 7 days mechanical ventilation (MV) were collected. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES: primary outcome ventilator-free (VFDs) 28 days. A multivariable linear regression performed VFD while controlling for confounders. Secondary outcomes included depth sedation, total dose sedatives, in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: There 339 final analysis. no difference post-groups (22.2 vs. 22.6 d; p = 0.92); this confirmed by ( 0.91).

With nursing retention as a primary evaluative aim, corporate-level clinical preceptors (CCPs) were operationalized in the acute care setting. This role combined key elements of preceptorship and mentorship to support novice nurses’ transition practice. CCPs conducted check-ins through regular rounding, e-mails, surveys open conversations, resulting significantly reduced turnover rates, particularly within first year practice, enhanced competence confidence.
