Filter by:At CHUS Fleurimont, one in five patients hospitalized for this condition needs to be transferred to an intensive functional rehabilitation unit (URFI) located in another establishment of the Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de service sociaux de l'Estrie - Centre hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke (CIUSSS de Estrie-CHUS). Patients and their relatives must therefore adapt to a new environment and a new care team, which can cause additional concern and uncertainty for their new condition. Thus, the importance of educating the patient and their family so that they understand the nature of the stroke, as well as the elements and stages of rehabilitation that lie ahead, are essentials so that they can make an informed choice about acceptance and type of rehabilitation. However, to date, little material is available to facilitate communication between the professional and the patient and his/her family. In this perspective, our research team has developed a video which aims to improve the knowledge of people and loved ones on intensive functional rehabilitation (RFI) and its care settings. The objectives of this study are: 1. Evaluate the effect of viewing the video on post-stroke patients and their relatives on: - Perceived stress - Anxiety - Knowledge on intensive functional rehabilitation 2. Measure participants satisfaction regarding the video 3. Evaluate the association between socio-demographic outcomes (age, sex, degree of impairment, relation with the patient, NIHSS, MRS) and perceived stress, anxiety and knowledge regarding rehabilitation.
Project Daire is a randomised-controlled factorial design trial working in partnership with primary schools and local food producers evaluating two interventions designed to improve primary school children's knowledge of and interest in food and where it comes from, with the ultimate aim of driving improvement in health, well-being and educational status.
Increasingly, patients are keen to record aspects of their medical care, especially in obstetrics and paediatrics. The knowledge of patients and staff in relation to this area is thought to be variable. In addition, the attitudes of patients and staff regarding this practice has not been well studied. This study aims to gather information on patients' use of recording devices to capture audio recordings, photographs or videos. Furthermore it aims to assess patient and staff knowledge and attitudes in relation to this area. This study will involve patients who have recently delivered a baby on the maternity unit or obstetric theatre completing a questionnaire. They will be approached by a study investigator and the study explained. They will then complete a consent form if they are happy to proceed. Following this they will complete the questionnaire. It will also involve the surveying of staff, who will be approached by a study investigator when not directly involved in the clinical care of patients. They will also complete a consent form if they are happy to proceed and then complete the questionnaire.
Opioid analgesics used in moderate or severe pain have potential side effects and addiction. Therefore, nurses have hesitations about opioid administration.This descriptive study aimed to evaluate the attitude and knowledge of nurses working in a university hospital about opioids. One hundred twenty-seven nurses were interviewed in the research population. The research data were obtained from the questionnaire, prepared by the researchers, between 01-05 June 2018. It consisted of three parts: descriptive characteristics, attitudes, and knowledge on opioid administration, and evaluation of basic nursing skills and pharmacology about opioids. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 24.0 package program was used for statistical analysis.

Aim of the study: To assess the knowledge, practice and attitude of Egyptian dentists regarding non invasive restorative approach.
This study aims to evaluate (1) the level of knowledge about dietary supplements (KaDS) among people potentially interested in health issues in Poland and (2) the fraction of these people using dietary supplements (UoDS). The study seeks determinants of KaDS and UoDS in this population as well. The study requires a participant to fill an online survey. RESEARCH QUESTIONS: 1. Knowledge about dietary supplements: 1. What is the level of knowledge about dietary supplements among people potentially interested in health issues? 2. What are the characteristics of the population members, who are unknowledgeable about dietary supplements? 3. How to model the level of knowledge about dietary supplements in this population? 2. Use of dietary supplements: 1. What is the fraction of people potentially interested in health issues who use dietary supplements? 2. What are the characteristics of the population members, who use dietary supplements? 3. How to model whether a population member uses dietary supplements or not?
This research study will evaluate the CARES Dementia-Friendly Hospitals online training and certification program for Allied Health Workers (nursing assistants, dietary aides, housekeeping employees, hospital transporters, lab/x-ray techs, and unit secretaries) who work in a hospital or medical center. Participants who sign up for this study will complete two 1-hour assessments (on day 1 and day 45). Participants will be randomly assigned into either an "immediate group" (where Participants complete the online training as part of the research study) or a "control group" (where Participants receive access to the online training at the end of the study). The online training and certification will take Participants approximately 6 hours to complete. To participate, Participants must be an allied health worker working at a hospital or medical center, have access to a computer/tablet/smart phone with Internet access, be comfortable reading and speaking in English, and age 21 or older. Deadline to begin the study: January 31, 2020
Many older adults in rural South Africa still lack knowledge of their HIV status despite a high probability of infection. Older adults tend to test less for HIV because most HIV testing and prevention programs have been targeted at younger age groups. Other reasons for failure to test for HIV include frailty and lack of financial resources to travel to HIV testing centers. Home-based testing is a powerful approach to bring HIV testing services -- and HIV status knowledge -- to older adults. In real-life health systems, community health workers, such as the South African community care givers, could potentially provide home-based HIV testing on a routine basis. In this study, the investigators are trying to establish the best 'form' for the 'function' home-based HIV testing. Specifically, the investigators aim to 1. Establish the comparative effectiveness of three home-based HIV testing options among older adults in rural South Africa 2. Identify spill-over effects of the different home-based HIV testing options to other adults in the households and communities of the older adults receiving the testing options 3. Determine the comparative cost-effectiveness of the three home-based HIV testing options among older adults.
Introduction: excess body weight is a growing and underestimated problem recognized as a worldwide epidemic. The collective difficulty and frustration to achieve healthy lifestyles, has caused the emergence of the named fad diets. In addition to the uncertainties of efficacy and safety of this diets, there is a lack of research to help establish the scope of the problem, and the knowledge, attitudes and practices of the general population. Objective: to assess the level of knowledge, attitudes (positive and negative) and practices on fad diets in a panel of consumers of socio-demographic characteristics assimilated to the Spanish population. Methods: cross-sectional descriptive study through non-validated and self-administered online Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices survey (KAP survey), on a sample of 2 600 adult consumers (non-probabilistic quota sampling). Primary outcomes: knowledge, attitudes and practices on fad diets. Data analysis: the association of each outcome with sociodemographic and socio-economic data will be assessed, and the differences between calculated scores as well as trends in different domains according to age, educational level and income level will be assessed (point estimates and confidence intervals 95%).
