Filter by:Child abuse and neglect is a broad structure that includes physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse and neglect. Child neglect and abuse is one of the primary areas of responsibility of health professionals, which negatively affects child health and threatens public health in the long term. All healthcare professionals are legally obligated to report known or suspected cases of child abuse and neglect. Health professionals, in particular, play an important role in stopping child abuse by assessing children, identifying risk factors, and reporting suspected child maltreatment to authorities. Early diagnosis of a neglected and abused child is important in reducing the recurrence of maltreatment. Regarding the evaluation of child neglect and abuse, healthcare professionals should approach a child who presents with suspicious injuries, thinking that he or she may be abused. The key here is to be aware of the problem. Health professionals should carefully examine children and fulfill their responsibilities by identifying possible clues to abuse and neglect. It is recommended that clues to recognize neglect and abuse be taught within the scope of in-service training for healthcare professionals working in hospitals.
Currently, the technique of arteriovenous fistula puncture is transmitted by companionship within hemodialysis units. Although the main principles of the technique are well known and common to all hemodialysis units, strong rationales are still lacking to standardize fine practices such as the relative position of the needles, the angle of attack of the needle at puncture, the position of the bevel at the time of puncture and once the needle is in the vascular lumen. The training of professionals using a simulation-based training program on the approach to arteriovenous fistula puncture, in a process of optimizing practices and continuous improvement of care, while respecting the principles of andragogy, seems to be a suitable tool. This program is built in a multi-professional team from nephrology, nursing and health simulation.
This study will investigate the effect of simulation-based training with mastery learning (SBML) on novice performers' lumbar puncture (LP) performance in a clinical setting. The study will investigate the effect on operators' performance, stress level, and on patient experienced stress, confidence in operator, and patient-related outcomes of pain, and risk of subsequent Post Dural Puncture Headache (PDPH), and days of sickness leave. The study will compare the effect of the training to a control group of novices receiving standard training and additionally to an intermediate and an expert group. The study will provide insight into the translational effect from the simulation based setting to clinical performance. Further, the study will explore: if stress decreases operators' performance; if operators stress affects the patient stress level; and the effect of SBML on patient-related outcomes.
