Filter by:A total of 72 type 2 diabetes who began insulin therapy using a pen injector participated in this study. The experimental (n = 36) and control (n = 36) groups received multimedia and regular health education program. Four structured questionnaires were used, and videotapes were applied to demonstrate injection skills.
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) accounts for 70-90% of all diagnosed traumatic brain injuries (TBI) affecting approximately 50-300 per 100.000 individuals annually. Persistent post-concussion symptoms are reported in 15-80% of hospital admitted and outpatient treated populations, affecting labour market attachment, academic achievement, income, socio-economic status, social interactions, home management, leisure activities and cohabitation status. The association between mTBI and long-term trends in cohabitation status, income, academic achievement and socio-economic status has not been thoroughly explored. Previous studies focus on children's academic performance after severe TBI and only few studies include early adulthood and patients with mTBI. Trends in divorce rates are frequently conducted on severe injuries or populations consisting of veterans. Additionally, all studies have failed to apply a national register based design. Aim The aim of the study is to examine the long-term associations between mTBI and trends in cohabitation status, academic achievement and socio-economic status between pre-injury rates and observed rates at 5 years post-injury. The hypothesis was that by 5 years mTBI would be associated with increased odds of marital breakdown, decreasing academic achievement, decreasing income, decreasing socio-economic status compared to the general population in Denmark. Methods: The study is a national register based cohort study with 5 years follow-up of patients with mild traumatic brain injury from 2008 - 2012 in Denmark. Population: Patients between 18-60 years diagnosed with concussion (ICD-10 S06.0) were extracted from the Danish National Patient Register between (2003-2007). Patients with major neurological injuries and previous concussions at the index date and 5 years before the index date (1998-2007) were excluded. Patients who were not resident in Denmark 5 years before and during the inclusion period were also excluded (1998-2007). Data will be retrieved from several national databases, including: the Danish national patient register, Danish Civil Registration System (CRS), the Danish Education Registers, the Income Statistics Register and the Employment Classification Module (AKM). One control of the general population were matched for each case on sex, age and municipality. Outcome measures are: Cohabitation status, Education, income and socio-economic status.
It is aimed to understand the gender differences on factors affecting the resting metabolic rate of people in different professional status. The relation between daily and weekly walking and sitting time, body mass index (kg/m2), Ponderal Index (kg/cm), waist-to-hip ratio of the participants will be searched. In this context, the demographic data (age, gender, neck and waist circumference (cm), occupation, education level) of the participants will be gathered with a questionnaire, specifically prepared for this study. The body composition analyses and International Physical Activity Level Questionnaire (IPAQ), Healthy Eating Index (HEI) will also be used to understand their body composition, physical activity level and eating habits, respectively. The data will be compared to understand the effects of education level and type of occupation on their physical activity level, as well as, the effects of trainings on adapting healthy behaviour of the participants as physical activity, healthy eating habits in relation to gender and professional status.
The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and usefulness of a simple one word mnemonic in the memory retention of the different components of the Canadian CT Head Rule (CCHR) in senior medical students and interns. The CCHR, a clinical decision rule used by emergency physicians to determine the need of head CT in the context of minor traumatic brain injury (mTBI). A rapid recall of the rule in the clinical setting would be expected to improve its utilization and overcome one of the barriers in its implementation. This would ultimately result in better utilization of resources and reduction in unnecessary exposure to radiation.
The primary goal of this PCORI proposal is to evaluate the impact of enhanced provider and clinical staff training to address the health disparities of SGM CHC patients to ultimately improve their health outcomes because CHCs are a key part of the U.S. health care delivery system for underserved populations. The current application proposes to test an intervention designed to understand how CHCs, including front line staff and safety net clinical providers, can identify and provide optimal care for their SGM patients, and will determine whether enhanced training of CHC staff in best practices for the provision of primary care for SGM patients will improve their clinical outcomes. The time is right for routinization of SOGI measures in EHRs and evaluation of the optimal methods to train primary care providers in the best practices for the care of SGM patients.
In a randomised non-inferiority trial the investigators examine two training interventions to train paediatric basic life support to laypersons: Dyad training vs Instructor led training. For dyad training two participants are guided by video instructions and perform exercises on children resuscitation manikins. The participants take turn to complete the exercises and provide feedback to their peer. The duration is up to 50 minutes Instructor led training of paediatric basic life support in instructor led courses with up to 6 participants per course with hands-on training on children resuscitation manikin. The duration of the courses is up to two hours. Instructor led training represents the common gold standard for training Paediatric Basic Life Support, however it is inflexible and uses a lot of resources. Dyad training provides a low cost solution with improved flexibility. Consequently a non-inferiority design is chosen as the benefits of dyad training with the same learning outcomes favours the dyad training method. Prior to the training both groups are informed about and have access to a website with videos, quizzes, pictures and text information on paediatric basic life support and foreign body airway obstruction management.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic progressive disease that affects more than 400 million people worldwide. There are a few studies evaluating ADRs in diabetics. Many patients experience ADRs soon after hospital discharge which can be attributed to the changes in the pharmacotherapy during hospitalization. Education and counseling of diabetic patients has been shown to improve medication adherence and clinical outcomes. Studies that included medical patients revealed that education can significantly reduce risk of ADRs after hospital discharge. Pharmacotherapeutic education is a part of comprehensive education of diabetics that is focused on a proper use of medications, prevention and early detection of ADRs.
The goal of the study is to determine the immediate and long-term effects of SNAP-Ed on the food insecurity of the entire household, household adults, and household children. The study also aims to determine if there is a dose-response effect on food security after receiving 4 to 10 FNP lessons and if other characteristics influence the change in food security status.
A cross validation study comparing an international acknowledged assessment tool "Endoscopy Training System" (ETS) and movement analysis of the colonoscope based on raw data from coils within the scope. 24 physicians are recruited and divided based on experience (novices and experienced). All participants are to perform twice on the ETS that is based on four tasks; Scope manipulation, tool targeting, loop management and mucosal inspection. The movement of the colonoscope will be gathered during the tasks and correlated to the scores of the ETS.
