Filter by:Introduction: Violence against women is the violation of human rights faced by women of all ages, cultures and education levels everywhere. It can be experienced in many different ways, either individually or socially. Aim: The study was conducted to investigate the effects of education given to university students on their attitudes towards violence against women, and their conflict and awareness levels.
Purpose: Nowadays, it is seen that there is an increasing interest in mindfulness-based therapies. Such practices can be beneficial by contributing to the personal and professional development of nursing students. In the study, the effect of mindfulness-based psychoeducation applied to Turkish nursing students on defense mechanisms and mindfulness was evaluated. Method: The research was designed as a quasi-experimental study with a control group. The population of the study consisted of 96 newly enrolled students in the nursing department of a foundation university, and the sample consisted of a total of 72 students who met the inclusion criteria of the study. In the sample, while 33 students formed the intervention group, 39 students formed the control group. Mindfulness- Based Psychoeducation was given online in 16 sessions in 8 weeks. Data were collected using the Defense Style Questionnaire and the Awareness Scale.Percentage distributions were used in the analysis of the data, t-Test and Chi-Square test were used in the comparison of the intervention and control groups, and the paired-samples t-Test was used in the comparison of the intervention and control groups within the group.
The investigators will screen all mechanically ventilated ED patients for study eligibility and will enroll all consecutive patients satisfying inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study design is a pragmatic, multicenter, stepped wedge cluster randomized trial, enrolling at five sites over a 3-year period, divided into six time periods of six months. Prior to the study, each site will be randomized to their position within the design. One site will cross to the intervention period (i.e. succinylcholine as default neuromuscular blocker) every six months from the 2nd to 6th time period. Cluster order will be determined by computer-based randomization. To begin, each site will be exposed to control conditions; by the end of the study, each site will be exposed to intervention conditions. Patients in the control phase will receive usual care, and this phase will be entirely observational. After six months, a site will enter a 2-month transition phase. In this phase, the investigators will implement the intervention, similar to how they have implemented other ED-based interventions for mechanically ventilated patients. The investigators will engage and educate ED clinicians on the importance of AWP prevention and the study objectives. The intervention framework relies on the use of "nudges", without restricting choice. The use of neuromuscular blockers (i.e. "paralytic" medications) is already part of routine care in the ED in order to facilitate endotracheal intubation and initiation of mechanical ventilation for patients with acute respiratory failure. The two most common neuromuscular blockers used in the ED are succinylcholine and rocuronium. The preliminary data show a strong association between rocuronium (a longer-acting neuromuscular blocker) use and AWP. Therefore, this study aims to improve care by educating caregivers on AWP and the use of the neuromuscular blockers, which are already routinely used, and studying that process in a rigorous fashion. The default neuromuscular blocker in the intervention phase will be succinylcholine. Succinylcholine will be the default over rocuronium because: 1) it has safely been the default neuromuscular blocker of choice in the ED for >40 years ; 2) its 5-minute duration of action greatly reduces AWP risk; 3) the preliminary data regarding an increased risk of AWP with rocuronium and 4) ED rocuronium use has increased despite no patient-centered studies showing benefit over succinylcholine. Passive alerts (i.e. graphics, pocket cards) will also be strategically placed in the ED, and active alerts will be used as reminders before every nursing shift (i.e. "the huddle"). After this transition phase, the site will begin the intervention phase, and patients will again receive clinician-directed care, just after the intervention.
Parents of Cerebral Palsy (CP) children participate in treatments, education services and general medical check-ups; They have many responsibilities such as the use of drugs, devices, educational materials. Therefore, involving parents of CP children in the rehabilitation process provides a stronger rehabilitation service for their children. In the studies, it was stated that the active participation of the parents in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation process increases the success rate of the treatment and the participation of the parents plays a key role for the success of the physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
The following research questions will be investigated: What is the knowledge of medical interventions for moderate to severe hearing loss and what is the knowledge of the reimbursement criteria for hearing implants of otorhinolaryngologists in a secondary setting in Brabant. This will be evaluated by means of a specific questionnaire that will be systematically gone over with the participants during an interview in the first and third phase. In a second phase, the investigators will investigate how the knowledge of medical interventions for moderate to severe hearing loss and the knowledge of the reimbursement criteria for hearing implants of otorhinolaryngologists in a secondary setting in Brabant can be increased by training the otorhinolaryngologists in a secondary setting in Brabant. In the third phase, the investigators will evaluate the knowledge of hearing implant interventions and reimbursement criteria among otorhinolaryngologists in a secondary setting.
A survey consisting of questions about swallowing and dysphagia was provided to universities' medicine and nursing students. The answers of students were analyzed
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)is the most common chronic rheumatic disease in childhood. While JIA usually affects the ankle and knee joints, it can also affect hip, cervical spine and shoulder involvement. Secondary problems such as spine involvement or lack of weight transfer may lead to scoliosis. The aim of this study was to perform scoliosis screening in children with JIA and to evaluate families' awareness of scoliosis.
Introduction There is a growing tendency from Occupational Therapy towards the use of programs based on occupation, which, through significant occupational participation, have shown to obtain beneficial results maintained over time in its participants. For this, these programs carry out processes of occupational self- analysis in which people reflect on the daily activities they usually perform so that they can generate modifications towards more satisfactory routines. However, and despite their proven benefits, these programs have been conducted mainly on older people and in cultural contexts other than Spanish. The "Occupational Self-Analysis" program, developed in the Spanish context, provides participants with a space where they can learn to analyse the barriers and supports for occupational participation and thus achieve a more significant occupational performance. Objectives The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the "Occupational Self-Analysis" program on the subjective perception of health and the number of roles in people with and without disabilities. In the same way, the purpose was to analyse the increase or modification of the performance in the Activities of the Daily Life that the participants did, and to know how the social environment supports the individual participation of the participants in meaningful activities. Method The implementation of the "Occupational Self-Analysis" program was carried out in 3 different populations; people with intellectual disability, people with acquired brain injury (ABI) and University students. The intervention was performed by comparing it with a control group (vocational guidance or usual rehabilitation in the caso of ABI participants). In people with intellectual disability, the experimental group consisted of 12 participants and the control one of 13. In people with ABI, the experimental group involved 5 participants and the control, 7. In university students, the experimental group involved 7 and the control 7. The SF-36 Health Questionnaire was used for the evaluation of subjective health perception and the Roles Checklist (Part 1) to evaluate the number of roles they play in the present and the future. All of them underwent a final focus group and the diary were they wrote their learning and emotions was analyzed to assess the benefits of the program.
Specific Aims/Study Objectives: 1. Evaluate acceptability and implementation of the "Oh Happy Day: Still I Rise Class," which comprise a one-time 4-hour class in which participants will learn about depression with the goal of increasing knowledge of depression and self-management of depression with use of a guided class and self-help workbook. Measures of acceptability will include class attendance, completion of workbook activities and satisfaction. Measures of implementation will include satisfaction, class enrollment, fidelity in delivery of class content, and cost analysis. 2) Evaluate participants' knowledge of depression pre-and immediate post-class, and 3-months post class. Measure: depression quiz. The investigators hypothesize participants will show increased knowledge of depression pre -and post-class. 3) Examine effectiveness of the Oh Happy Day Class- Still I Rise (OHDC-SIR) in prevention of depression and 3- months' post- class. Measure, Patient Health Questionnaire - ( PHQ-9) 4) Examine effectiveness of OHDC-SIR in reducing symptoms of depression 3- months' post- class. Measure, PHQ-9. The investigators hypothesize the OHDC-SIR will result in reduction in depressive symptoms 3- months' post-class.
It is important to determine the attitudes and behaviors of individuals towards regular exercise participation in order to direct individuals to physical activity or to implement effective practices related to increasing their participation. The aim of this study was to determine the awareness of physical activity in young adults, the relationship between physical activity awareness and physical activity level and to investigate the differences between sexes.
