RESUMO
Mineral and bone disorder is common in individuals with kidney transplant as a sequelae of chronic kidney disease. Rapid bone density loss that occurs during the first year after transplant along with pre-existing bone disorder, places these patients at risk of bone fractures at three times higher than the general population. This article examines the efficacy of current evidence-based clinical interventions in reducing the incidence of bone fractures among recipients of kidney transplant.

Interdisciplinary collaboration and interprofessional education (IPE) are essential for transforming health care. Students in nurse practitioner (NP) programs have limited exposure to IPE. Simulated clinical experiences, based on social learning theory, provide a safe and realistic environment to expose NP students to interdisciplinary collaboration as a step toward developing IPE. Faculty at a large university school of nursing developed a formative standardized patient experience to provide NP students with two opportunities to synthesize a patient assessment, to share patient problem-solving strategies, and to succinctly communicate with other health care professionals. This pilot project provided insight to better develop IPE and identified a growing interest to collaborate in future projects with faculty from other health care disciplines.
