How to Change Power Plan Settings in Windows 10 A power plan is a collection of hardware and system settings that manages how your computer uses power. Power plans can help you save energy, maximize system performance, or achieve a balance between the two. All users (standard and administrator) will be able to make changes to any power plan settings. Changes made to a power plan will affect all users that have as their default active power scheme. Windows 10 provides the following default plans: • Balanced - Offers full performance when you need it and saves power when you don't. This is the best power plan for most people.

• Power saver - Saves power by reducing PC performance and screen brightness. If you're using a laptop, this plan can help you get the most from a single battery charge. • High performance - Maximizes screen brightness and might increase PC performance. This plan uses a lot more energy, so your laptop battery won't last as long between charges.
• - Only available starting with. Provides ultimate performance on higher end PCs. • - These are only available if either your PC manufacturer (OEM) provided additional power plans, and/or you create a custom power plan. These are available to all users. This tutorial will show you how to change the settings of a power plan that you want to customize to reflect how you want Windows 10 to manage power.
Title Impact of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Factors on Nurses' Use of Hospital-Endorsed Complementary and Alternative Medicine Treatments Author(s) Advisor(s) Keywords Date 2014-05 Publisher Drexel University Thesis Dr.N.P., Nursing Practice -- Drexel University, 2014 Abstract This mixed method, exploratory, sequential study investigated a convenience sample of nurses (n=142) educated in hospital-endorsed (Reiki and/or aromatherapy/guided imagery) complementary alternative medicine (CAM) modalities. Many hospitals, in response to consumer requests, have integrated CAM as services offered for patients. However, while many nurses are educated in CAM at the study site, the application of a CAM modality is not always integrated as part of the standard care of the patient, despite hospital policies and competencies to support the practice. The purpose of the study is to explore and describe the intrinsic personal factors (socio-demographics and nurses’ attitudes and beliefs) and nurses’ perception of patient receptivity to CAM, extrinsic situational factors (workload and peer support) and patient factors that influence nurses’ continued use of hospital-endorsed CAM in a mid-Atlantic suburban hospital.
Phase one of the study was two qualitative focus groups (n = 10) and the results of the focus group were used to inform the development of a survey, which was then pilot tested (n =3) using cognitive interviewing. Phase two of the study was the administration of the survey (n = 132). There was an 81.8% response rate for the surveys. Qualitative data was analyzed using grounded principles. There were four themes that emerged. Survey data was analyzed using a negative binomial regression model.
Results showed that the continuation of CAM practices for patients was dependent upon the intrinsic variable, nurses’ use of CAM for self-care. The extrinsic variables for peer support (have you received a treatment from a peer and/or have you give a treatment to a peer) were significant for nurses’ use of CAM for self-care. The study offers practical steps for implications for nursing practice, education, and research. Keywords: Complementary alternative medicine (CAM) and nurses, nurses’ use and CAM, holistic care, nurses’ attitudes and/or beliefs, barriers and CAM, health belief, nurses’ decision-making, and pain medication/attitudes of nurses.
