Filter by:Despite a large proportion exhibiting cardiovascular disease risk factors and experiencing food insecurity, U.S. Hispanics/Latinos demonstrate low cardiovascular mortality, which may indicate existing capital (e.g., assets) protecting health and diet. The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and short-term efficacy of a pilot intervention aimed at improving diet quality through strengthening food- and diet-related capital and food security among low-income, Hispanic/Latino adults in San Diego, California. The pilot intervention will be integrated into an existing local health or nutrition program serving low-income Hispanic/Latino adults. Participants will be asked to: - Complete questionnaires before and after the intervention - Engage in nutrition education activities - Engage in food access-related activities
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training for nursing students is important. The importance of using computer-assisted simulation in gaining skills for basic life support applications is increasing. In addition to the use of simulation-based teaching methods in many different fields, it is seen that they are also used for the development of cardiopulmonary resuscitation practices of students and produce effective results.The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of a web-based simulation application used in basic life support education on the level of knowledge, satisfaction and self-confidence of nursing students.
The aim of this study is to assess women's health care seeking behavior and knowledge of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse and to culturally adapt the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ) for the Hungarian population.
Background: Simulation-based training in transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) seems promising. However, data are limited to non-randomized or single-center studies. Objectives: This large multicenter randomized, parallel-group, unblinded, study will assess the impact of simulation-based versus traditional teaching on TEE knowledge and performance for medical fellows in cardiology. Eligibility: - All consecutive fellows in cardiology of all training levels (year 1-4) - who have never performed a TEE alone Design: - Multicenter, parallel-group, unblinded, randomized study with a prospective enrollment of all consecutive fellows in cardiology of all training level (year 1 to 4) who were recruited in 42 centers throughout France. - Randomization with stratification by center will be performed at the individual (fellow) level in 1:1 ratio to assign all the fellows to the traditional group or to the TEE simulation-based training group. - Each participant will complete two different tests during the study: 1) a pre-training test before starting the educational program; and 2) a final test performed 3 months after the end of the educational program. Each of these tests will include a theoretical test and a practical test on a TEE simulator. - The coprimary outcomes of the study to compare the two groups will be the scores in the final theoretical and practical tests after the training will be completed.
Annually a substantial number of courses and trainings are organised in Flanders with regard to suicide prevention.These trainings are mainly aimed at intermediaries, such as caregivers, teachers, police, etc. From previous research it appears that such trainings are one of the most effective strategies for increasing knowledge, attitudes, skills and self-confidence with regard to dealing with persons who are suicidal and with crisis situations. However, such research has not yet been conducted in Flanders, which means that the effect of the training on the knowledge and attitudes of the intermediaries could not yet be determined. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of the trainings in Flanders. These trainings are organised by the Centre for the Prevention of Suicide (CPZ) and by the suicide prevention workers of the Centers for Mental Health Care. All participants who register for one of these trainings will be invited by e-mail at three moments to complete an online questionnaire: - Pre-test: one week before the training, - Post-test: after the training, - Follow-up: three months after training.
This study aims to improve maternal, neonatal and infant health outcomes through an integrated community-based intervention package in Jimma Zone, Southwest Ethiopia.
The aim of this project is to increase knowledge on and influence intention (and related determinants) toward the use of dietary supplements in populations at risk for doping such as university student athletes. Our objectives are to increase athletes' knowledge on dietary supplements, change their attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control toward the use of these supplements, increase their body appreciation and thus increase their intention to take nutrients from diet first before considering dietary supplements. We are proposing the conceptualization, implementation, and evaluation of a nutrition education program on dietary supplements targeting varsity athletes at universities across Ontario. Participants will be recruited from varsity teams at the University of Guelph. The intervention will be tested for validity and reliability and implemented online through Courselink modules over 4 weeks. Participants will be randomly assigned to a control or intervention group, using a randomized control trial approach. Each week, participants will learn about a topic related to nutrition, health and values-based ethics of clean sport. The intervention group will receive additional information on dietary supplements, their benefits and their risks. Doping and body appreciation and their links to the use of dietary supplements will also be covered in this group. A questionnaire assessing outcome objectives will be administered before and at the end of the intervention as well as 3 months post-intervention. Among the different components covered in the questionnaire, one section will assess knowledge on health, sports nutrition, and dietary supplements; and another will gather responses to statements reflecting the different theory of planned behaviour (TPB) cognitive constructs.
The focus of this study is to learn about the factors that parents consider when making a decision for their child to participate or not in a clinical treatment research study.
Psychological safety refers to the shared belief that a work team can face complex challenges when there is an environment of mutual respect and trust. Thus, healthcare professionals provide safer care when causes and ways to avoid clinical errors can be discussed and analyzed without fear of criticism or sanctions. A psychological safety climate can be a determinant of patient safety. In this way, this provides safer care when it is possible to discuss and analyze the causes and how to avoid clinical errors without fear of criticism or sanctions. This study aims to explore the mentors' opinion on what psychological safety competencies are being acquired by future generations of healthcare professionals (students and residents, hereafter "trainees") through current training programs and what actions should be taken to promote such competencies in clinical settings.
This was a non-experimental, descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study, for which the CHERRIES checklist was used to report the study in order to improve the quality of the report of such designs. The open-ended survey was voluntary, consisted of 18 items and four sections, the items were not randomized and the survey was estimated to last approximately five minutes.
