Filter by:This study aims to find out that if a specially designed educational program can help in reduction of pre-operative anxiety in breast cancer patients undergoing surgery as a part of their treatment.
The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of spine physicians reviewing post-procedural fluoroscopic images with patients. The outcome measure to be assessed will be the potential impact the patient satisfaction and the patient's global impression of change (PGIC) 2 weeks after the spine procedure.
the goal of this randomized controlled trial aimed to assess patient satisfaction for completely edentulous patients with implant overdenture retained by ball attachment over a single symphyseal , or four interforaminal implants when compared to two interforaminal ones
This study aim to examine the safety and feasibility of unsedated colonoscopy in patients with high risk for sedation (ASA score≥3).
Painless endoscopy is a popular endoscopic diagnosis and treatment method at present, and propofol combined with fentanyl general intravenous anesthesia has been widely used in painless endoscopic diagnosis and treatment.However, the combined application of the two has an obvious respiratory center inhibition effect, leading to the decrease of blood oxygen saturation in patients, especially obese patients, more prone to blood oxygen plunge, even threatening life.Due to the potential risk of upper airway obstruction in some obese patients, intraoperative hypoventilation may occur during painless colonoscopy due to the influence of sedative and analgesic drugs, thus causing hypoxia in patients. In addition, the anatomical and pathological changes of obese patients themselves make hypoxia tolerance poor and airway establishment difficult, which may endanger the safety of patients.Currently, supracloglottic ventilation devices that have little impact on patients and are easy to accept are often used clinically to complete short daytime operations. The most common is the application of oropharyngeal ventilation to solve upper airway obstruction , however, oropharyngeal ventilation is inconvenient to use in gastroenteroscopy and treatment, while nasopharyngeal ventilation is suitable. However, based on the experience of observers,Although the nasopharyngeal airway can play a good role in the unobtrusived airway, the incidence of nasopharyngeal hemorrhage is high, and the comfort of patients is poor. Therefore, the researchers considered to directly insert the nasopharyngeal airway into the pharyngeal cavity next to the oral pad through the mouth, so as to achieve the effect of unobtrusived airway and increase the local oxygen concentration, and the idea of this experiment came from this.
This protocol will assess the level of satisfaction, acceptance of treatment and quality of life of patients with undetectable HIV who voluntarily change from oral to injectable antiretroviral treatment at 72 weeks of follow-up.
Mechanical ventilation support is used to ensure airway clarity in patients after surgery.If patients are not informed about mechanical ventilation treatment in the pre -operation period, panic, anxiety and comfort may be experienced when they wake up from anesthesia and find them in intensive care under mechanical ventilation with various tubes and equipment. The separation from the mechanical ventilator (MV) covers the patient's mechanical support and the entire process of separation of endotrakeal tube.During the separation of the mechanical ventilator, the support of one of the patient members of the patient may increase the stress and comfort of the patient. Therefore, this research is planned
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a customizable support material allows to improve the knowledge about the stage and subtype of the disease, as well as the indicated treatments, in comparison with a non-customizable support material among patients with breast cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the impact of delivering a customizable support material so that patients with breast cancer know and remember the stage and subtype of their disease, as well as the indicated treatments, compared to non-customizable support material? Participants in the intervention group will be provided customizable support material while those in the standard group will receive a non-customizable material.
Nurses aim to care for people who can no longer carry out their life activities and needs, and to ensure that they can continue to live their lives as well as possible. The aim is to improve the quality of life by making life more comfortable through care. Comfort in care means solving the patient's problems, being peaceful and content, and relieving pain/suffering. Kolcaba explained that comfort theory can be used as a guide to meet the comfort needs of individuals in the care process. The theory explains the concept of comfort as relaxation, refreshment and the ability to overcome problems (superiority). According to this theory, the nurse identifies the comfort needs of the patient and family and plans and implements interventions to meet these needs. There are no studies in the literature that have investigated the effect of nursing care based on Kolcaba's comfort theory on the comfort, satisfaction and sleep quality of ICU patients. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of nursing care based on Kolcaba's Comfort Theory on the comfort, satisfaction and sleep quality of ICU patients.
Preeclampsia is a common and potentially devastating disease that affects only pregnant or postpartum patients. It is a leading cause of maternal mortality not only worldwide, but in the United States as well. As the medical field has advanced in many regards, including improved treatment for prevention of severe preeclampsia or even eclamptic seizures, the strain on pregnant and postpartum people has remained relatively unchanged. The most successful and widely used management of severe preeclampsia is magnesium sulfate, an intravenous infusion used to help prevent eclamptic seizures which can be additionally life threatening. While magnesium can be efficacious, it comes with some hindrances. Notably, magnesium itself can make patients feel ill-weak, confused, lethargic, "foggy", and even somnolent in cases of toxicity. Other adverse effects include pulmonary edema, and cardiac arrhythmias or even coma. These effects are common and concerning enough that it is regular practice to examine patients at the bedside with a full neurological exam every 2 hours while they are on magnesium, which is typically a course of at least 24 hours straight. Additionally, patients typically have a foley catheter in place to monitor urine output as magnesium can cause kidney injury, and they are bedbound because of the lethargy and concern for falls. In the postpartum period this has significant negative impacts on patients bonding with their newborn, initiating breast or chest feeding, walking, voiding, and aiding in faster postpartum recovery. While the implications of a life threatening medical diagnosis are devastating for many patients, the trauma that can be caused by being away from a patient's newborn or not feeling in control of the patients own body postpartum are issues that are finally starting to be recognized. While magnesium is necessary, there may be ways to treat patients while maintaining independence, mental health and sense of selves especially in the sensitive postpartum period. The investigators hypothesis is that, in a carefully selected group of patients with severe preeclampsia, 12 hours of magnesium sulfate leads to improved patient satisfaction, increased breastfeeding postpartum, as well as other markers of enhanced postpartum recovery, and lack of worsening symptoms or persistently elevated blood pressure in comparison to 24 hours of magnesium.
