Abstract:
To explore the influence of the parturients' mental factors on the delivery mode and postpartum hemorrhage and the nursing intervention countermeasures, the research randomly divided the expectant primiparae hospitalized in our hospital during February 2012–February 2013 into the intervention group and the control group. Wherein, the control group received routine nursing, while the intervention group received nursing intervention based on the routine nursing, to compare the postpartum hemorrhage and satisfaction of the two groups of parturients. Result: 36 of 112 parturients suffered from dysphoria, accounting for 32.14%; 37 parturSients suffered from depression, accounting for 33.04%. The parturients' hemorrhage incidence, postpartum amount of bleeding within 2 h and postpartum amount of bleeding within 24 h all significantly declined compared with those of the control group (x2/t = 3.98, 4.02, 4.96 p < 0.05). The cesarean rate of the control group (7.14%, 4/56) was significantly higher than that of the control group (16.07%, 9/56) (x2 = 4.02 p < 0.05). The postpartum satisfaction of the patients in the intervention group was apparently higher than that of the control group (x2 = 4.26 p < 0.05). Conclusion: The nursing intervention can obviously reduce the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage and improve postpartum satisfaction, so it is worth popularizing.

Abstract:
Nursing quality is one of the important parts of the hospital service level as high-quality nursing can not only improve the hospital service level, but also promote the hospital image and perfect the relationship between doctors and patients. Nursing quality control system is a set of standard system which is set up to guarantee the nursing quality because the scientific nursing control system can shorten managing practice, improve the effect of nursing, and lower the operating costs for hospitals as well. Aiming at the problems existing in the modern nursing control system in China, the paper makes an analysis and a summary so as to perfect the nursing quality control system in our country and improve the nursing level by way of standardizing managing, setting up a scientific supervision system and perfecting the nursing team.

Abstract:
During the past decade, nurses in the clinical setting have began making a paradigm shift from Quality Assurance to Total Quality Management, or as it is commonly referred to within health care facililties, Continuous Quality Improvement.In contrast, scant attention has been paid to quality management practices in nursing in the higher education sector. This study provides an applied example of where it investigates quality management practices in the context of organisational culture and human resource management with the aim of developing a quality culture model for a school of nursing in higher education.The research study that was conducted produced several major findings from the views of nurse academics who participated in it. Several issues associated with nurse academics' opinions of quality management practices utilised in schools of nursing have been unravelled.The fundamental issue is that procedures and policies formulated for nurses in the hospital setting do not serve the needs of nursing education.The most crucial factor to be considered in policy developments and future research is that it needs to be contextualised in the culture of nursing in higher education.It has become imperative that a transparent quality culture reflects contemporary nursing in Australia and the proposed model in this thesis provides nurses with an opportunity to shape a quality system for the nursing profession.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Background: In her clinical practice as nursing manager the researcher was concerned about incomplete and inaccurate documentation of patients diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB) which were compromising the management of these patients. The primary care nurses endorsed these concerns. Goals and Objective: The goal of this study was to audit nursing documentation according to the phases of the nursing process and the discharge planning of patients diagnosed with TB discharged from TB hospitals in the Western Cape. The objectives for the study were to determine whether the patients were adequately assessed and diagnosed, whether nursing care plans were formulated based on the assessment and whether they were implemented and evaluated according to the nursing process - including the discharged planning. Ethics approval was obtained from the Committee of Human Research Science at Stellenbosch University and permission was also obtained from the respective institutions. Methodology: A descriptive design with a quantitative approach was applied for the purpose of this study. The total population for the study was N=1768. A systematic random sample of 12% from each hospital was drawn: n=214, hospital A (n=142) and hospital B (n=72). Criteria included:  all adult patients older than 18 years  patients who were discharged between 01 January 2007 and 31st December 2007  all discharged patients from the two hospitals specializing in patients diagnosed with TB. Instrumentation: An audit instrument based on the objectives of the study was approved as the data collection tool. Guided by the proposed study a 10% (n=21) of the number of discharged patient files were drawn for the purpose of a pilot study. Reliability and validity was ensured through the use of experts in the field of nursing, research methodology and statistics. A pilot study was also conducted to support the reliability and validity of the study. Data collection: The researcher collected the data personally with the support of five trained field workers who only assisted at hospital B and was reluctant to assist at the second hospital. Data analysis: Data was analysed with the support of a statistician and expressed in frequencies and tables. Results: All phases of the nursing process showed a low compliance. Results showed that only n=90(42%) of the registered professional nurses checked and signed the initial assessment, furthermore only n=53(34%) showed that a recording was made of all referral documentation to the patient’s follow-up clinic. Recommendations: Recommendations based on the scientific evidence obtained from the study include the implementation of a quality assurance programme namely standardisation, auditing, case management of patients, education and training, rewarding of staff and further research. Conclusion: In conclusion guided by the research question “Are the audited discharged patient files at hospitals specialising in the management of patients with TB in the WCDoH compliant?” The researcher concludes that the discharged patient files are not compliant.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Agtergrond: In haar kliniese praktyk as verpleegbestuurder is die navorser besorgd oor die onvolledige en onakkurate dokumentasie van pasiënte wat met tuberkulose (TB) gediagnoseer is en wat dus die versorging van hierdie pasiënte in gevaar stel. Hierdie besorgdhede is deur die primêre sorg verpleegsters bevestig. Doel en Doelwitte: Die doel van die studie is om die verpleegdokumente te ouditeer volgens die fases van die vepleegproses, asook die ontslagbeplanning van die pasiënte gediagnoseer met TB van die hospitale in die Wes-Kaap. Die doelwitte is om te bepaal of die pasiënte korrek geassesseer en gediagnoseer is en of verpleegsorgplanne opgestel is, wat gebaseer is op die assessering en versorgingsplanne wat geïmplementeer en geëvalueer is volgens die verpleegproses, insluitende die ontslagbeplanning. Etiese goedgekeuring is toegestaan deur die Komitee vir Menslike Navorsingswetenskap van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch en toestemming is ook ontvang van die onderskeie instansies. Metodologie: ’n Beskrywende ontwerp met ’n kwantitatiewe benadering is toegepas vir die doel van die studie. Die totale bevolking vir die studie is N=1786. ’n Sistematiese ewekansige geselekteerde steekproef van 12% van elke hospitaal is geneem: n=214, hospitaal A (n=142) en hospitaal B (n=72). Die kriteria sluit in:  alle volwasse pasiënte ouer as 18 jaar  pasiënte wat gedurende die periode 01 Januarie 2007 tot 31 Desember 2007 ontslaan is  alle ontslag pasiënte van die twee hospitale wat spesialiseer in pasiënte wat gediagnoseer is met TB. Instrumentasie: ‘n Ouditinstrument gebaseer op die doelwitte is goedgekeur as die dataversamelingsinstrument. Na aanleiding van die voorgestelde studie is 10% (n=21) van die aantal ontslag pasiëntlêers getrek vir die doel van die loodsondersoek. Betroubaarheid en geldigheid is verseker deur gebruik te maak van deskundiges in die verplegingsveld, die navorsingsmetodologie en statistiek. Die loodsondersoek is ook uitgevoer om die betroubaarhied en geldigheid van die studie te rugsteun. Dataversameling: Die navorser het die data persoonlik gekollekteer met die bystand van vyf opgeleide veldwerkers wat slegs hulp verleen het by hospital B en wat teësinnig was om hulp te verleen by die tweede hospitaal. Data-analise: Data is geanaliseer met die hulp van ’n statistikus en is uitgedruk in frekwensies en tabelle. Resultate: Alle fases van die verpleegproses het nie voldoen aan die vereistes nie. Resultate dui daarop dat slegs n=90 (42%) van die geregistreerde professionele verpleegsters die aanvanklike assessering nagegaan en onderteken het, vervolgens het slegs n=53 (34%) getoon dat ’n opname gemaak was van alle verwysde dokumentasie van die pasiënt se opvolgbesoek aan die kliniek. Aanbevelings: Aanbevelings is gebaseer op die wetenskaplike bewys wat verkry is van die studie vir die implementering van ’n gehalte versekeringsprogram, naamlik standardisering, ouditering, gevallebestuur van pasiente, opvoeding en opleiding, erkenning aan die personeel, en voortgesette navorsing. Samevatting: Ter afsluiting gelei deur die navorsering’s vraag nl. “Is die geouditeerde verpleegdokumente in hospitale wat spesialiseer in die bestuur van pasiente gediagnoseer met TB in die Weskaap se Department van Gesondheid bygehou?” Die navorser bevestig dat die verpleegdokumente nie bygehou was nie.

Abstract:
Hyperglycemia in adult cardiac surgery may result in post-operative sternal wound infections, pneumonia, renal failure, increased length of stay, and cost. The Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP) (2006) requires blood glucose control in cardiac surgery at 6:00 am on post-operative day one (POD1) and post-operative day two (POD2) to be 200mg/dL or less. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) guidelines use a Maltodextrin 12.5% carbohydrate beverage six hours and two hours pre-operative of general surgery to improve post-operative outcomes, cost, and length of stay. One study replicated ERAS guidelines in adult coronary artery bypass grafting surgery patients finding patients had decreased length of stay and improved glycemic control six hours postoperatively. The purpose of this quality improvement project is to outline a proactive approach to the modifiable risk factor of pre-operative fasting. This quality improvement project describes a pre-operative fasting carbohydrate protocol for non-emergent, adults, scheduled for cardiac surgery at 10:00am or later, with a hemoglobin A1C of 8.4% or less, and a body mass index of 35 or less. The protocol is named the Hungry Sweet Heart Protocol and an implementation plan is described for a community hospital located in Tucson, AZ. Updating practices of strict NPO status prior to cardiac surgery is a proactive measure to improve glycemic control and adherence to SCIP guidelines post-operatively. Interdisciplinary teams, including DNPs, are perfectly suited to guide this implementation.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: South Africa has a proud history of a high standard of health care delivery in State funded hospitals. This implies that high standards of education and care in both medical and nursing training have been achieved. The care of sick and premature newborn infants by nurses is a speciality that has evolved worldwide over the last forty years as a result of various technological developments. In order to ensure the standard of care delivered, protocols of care should be available for nurses to refer to and to measure their work against. There were no protocols of care available in the two Neonatal Units (NICUs) used in this study. Using a non-experimental, exploratory descriptive design, the researcher set about measuring the quality of nursing care in the NICUs. Standards (structure, process and outcome) were written by the researcher, and validated. The results showed that the standards were not met at an acceptable level in various areas. One of the areas of great concern was the lack of effective hand washing. Outcome standards which reflect the consequences of care indicated serious shortages of staff in some cases and insufficient staff training. Recommendations are that a Quality Assurance Program should be introduced with training and education of the nurses working in the NICUs and the introduction of evidencebased practice. Future research should aim at showing the way to improve the service delivered.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Suid-Afrika het ‘n trotse geskiedenis van ‘n hoë standard van gesondheidsorgdienslewering in Staatsbefondsde hospitale. Dit impliseer dat hoë standaarde in mediese en verpleegopleiding bereik is. Die versorging van siek en premature pasgebore babas deur verpleegkundiges is ‘n spesialiteit wat oor die afgelope veertig jaar wêreldwyd ontwikkel het as gevolg van verskeie tegnologiese ontwikkelings. Ten einde te verseker dat ‘n hoë standard van sorg gelewer word, moet protokolle beskikbaar wees vir verpleegkundiges om te gebruik en hulle werkverrigting teen te meet. Daar was geen protokolle beskikbaar in die twee neonatale eenhede wat in hierdie studie gebruik is nie. ‘n Nie-eksperimentele, verkennende, beskrywende ontwerp is deur die navorser gebruik om die gehalte van verpleegsorg in die neonatale eenhede te evalueer. Standaarde (struktuur, proses en uitkoms) is deur die navorser opgestel en gevalideer. Die resultate toon aan dat die standaarde in verskeie areas nie aanvaarbaar nagekom word nie. ‘n Kommerwekkende bevinding was die afwesigheid van effektiewe was van hande. Uitkomsstandaarde wat die resultaat van sorg weerspieël, het aangedui dat daar ernstige tekorte aan personeel in sommige gevalle bestaan het asook onvoldoende opleiding van personeel. Aanbevelings is dat ‘n Gehalteversekeringsprogram ingestel behoort te word en met die opleiding van verpleegkundiges werksaam in die neonatale eenhede en evidence-based practice aangespreek moet word. Toekomstige navorsing behoort aan te dui hoe om die diens wat gelewer word, te verbeter.

Abstract:
Organizational performance in the healthcare field is of great interest for many stakeholders. Efficient use of resources and delivery of high quality of care should be relevant to any taxpayer hoping to live healthily and grow old in Sweden. Simultaneously, the working conditions for the employees need to be sustainable if the impending lack of 170 000 workers in the healthcare sector by the year of 2030 is to be mitigated (Statistiska centralbyrån, 2012). The scope of this study is to examine how the quality management systems applied to ensure and improve the aforementioned objectives are perceived by the individual employees. Specifically, practitioners in the nursing professions are enquired about the design principles of enabling control as described by Adler and Borys (1996). The study has utilized a quantitative methodology and an online survey to collect personal perceptions and experiences from 400 individuals in the nursing professions on this topic. Major findings are that the majority of the respondents state that they perceive three out of four of the design principles of an enabling system to be present in the quality management system at their workplace. In addition, there is a strong association between the perception of the enabling characteristics flexibility and repair and general job satisfaction. Further studies with larger samples would increase the statistical power of these correlations. In addition, a large proportion of the respondents perceive that the quality management processes is negatively affected by financial constraints. Only a minority of the respondents perceive the workload constituted by tasks connected to quality management as reasonable.

Abstract:
Nästan alla patienter blev hypoterma före, under och efter operation. För att undvika detta vidtog sjuksköterskan olika omvårdnadsåtgärder för att minska risken för oönskad hypotermi. Det var viktigt för vårdpersonal att få kunskap om vilka omvårdnadsåtgärder som är optimala för att minska komplikationer, samt få förståelse för hur hypotermi påverkar patienten under hela vårdförloppet. Kunskapen behövs för att lindra lidandet och öka tryggheten i samband med operation. Syftet var att söka evidens för bästa beprövade omvårdnadsåtgärd för att förebygga hypotermi hos patienter samt beskriva hypotermins påverkan på patienter under dagoperativt vårdförlopp. En litteraturstudie genomfördes där kvantitativa och kvalitativa artiklar analyserades med hjälp av innehållsanalys enligt Fribergs modell (Friberg 2012). Resultatet visade att det var viktigt att börja värma patienten före operation och att starta med en högre begynnelsetemperatur. Vid steriltvättning rekommenderades varm desinfektion. Även vid artroskopier var det en fördel att använda uppvärmd vätska. Vid korta ingrepp fungerade både värmekällan Hot dog (elektriskt täcke/madrass) och Bair Hugger (varmluftstäcke). Bair Hugger var i dagsläget den enskilt mest effektiva metoden för att snabbt höja temperaturen, mest miljömässiga samt ekonomiskt hållbara metoden vid längre operationer, givet att den var inställd på hög värme (43°C). Dock räckte det inte med en metod för att få en normaltempererad patient, utan flera olika metoder behövde kombineras samtidigt. En riktlinje för sjuksköterskor var att fortsätta med hög temperatur på värmekällan även då patientens kroppstemperatur hade uppnått normal temperatur. Först när patienten började svettas var det lämpligt att sänka temperaturen. Det var viktigt att mäta temperaturen för att fånga upp alla som var hypoterma, då inte alla patienter uppvisade symtom såsom shivering. Öka vårdpersonalens medvetenhet om vikten av att värma patienter på operation och använda alla metoder som finns tillgängliga för att minska hypotermi och öka välbefinnandet.

Abstract:

As African American (AA) breast cancer survivors live longer with the disease, much attention should be directed to quality of life and factors influencing it. An understanding of survivors' belief that God controls their health and their social support needs is necessary as an effort to develop health care services and programs that are culturally sensitive. This study was the first to explore the association between an individual's belief that God controls their health, social support and quality of life among AA breast cancer survivors. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between social support, God Locus of Health Control (GLHC) and quality of life (QoL) among the survivors residing in Illinois. This study's alternative hypotheses predicted after controlling for age, location of residence, marital status, and time since diagnosis, social support and GLHC, combined and individually, would positively correlate to QoL for AA breast cancer survivors.

The study used a descriptive, correlational and quantitative design by testing the variables using hierarchical multiple regression and Pearson correlation. A convenience sample of 92 AA women was recruited from a community hospital, a Federally Qualified Health Centers, a beauty shop, two support groups, a member association that advocates for health care disparities, and local newspapers. Quantitative measures included Social Support Questionnaire (Northouse, 1988), GLHC scale (Wallston et al., 1999), Quality of Life Index - Cancer Version III (QLI - CV III) (Ferrans, 1990), and Demographic Characteristics form created by researcher.

Results concluded QoL was not affected by social support and GLHC, combined, and GLHC, individually. However, social support was a predictor of QoL. Statistically significant relationships were found between social support, QoL and its domains: a) health and functioning subscale, b) social and economic subscale, c) psychological/spiritual subscale and d) family subscale. Statistically significant relationships were not found between GLHC and QoL and its domains. The mean score for social support and GLHC scales were low compared to prior study results. The QLI - CV III mean score was moderately high compared to other study results.

Additional findings concluded women residing in the suburb had statistically significant higher mean QoL than those living in the rural or urban areas of Illinois. Also, married women in this sample had a higher mean QoL than unmarried women. Although AA breast cancer survivors' QoL was not increased by their belief that God controlled their health and the mean social support score was low, the study results provided valuable information for future research and the development of social support programs that are culturally sensitive.

Abstract:
Gastric banding as a weight loss surgery has increased in popularity in the United States since its approval by the Food and Drug Administration in 2001. Successful weight loss after weight loss surgery is most frequently defined as greater than 50 percent of excess weight loss (EWL). Systematic reviews show that the band is widely effective in achieving successful weight loss in most patients, however individual studies show more inconsistent outcomes. Although previous research supports gastric bypass surgery as having a positive effect on quality of life after gastric bypass, there is very little data to support this relationship in gastric banding patients. Weight loss outcomes after gastric banding surgery at Virginia Commonwealth Health System were less than 50 per cent EWL at one and two years. A retrospective, descriptive study sought to answer the following questions: 1) What is the relationship between physical activity, eating behaviors and hunger control on weight loss and quality of life after gastric banding surgery and 2) Does successful weight loss at one year predict successful weight loss at two years. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire Sort Form (IPAQ) was used to assess participation in physical activity. The Medical Outcomes Study Short Form (SF-36) was used to determine quality of life. Weight loss outcomes were 34.6 per cent at one year and 39.7 per cent at two years, which was less than the established success rate of greater than 50 per cent EWL, However, most patients lost some weight and demonstrated a significant improvement in most domains of health related quality of life. Participation in physical activity increased fro preoperatively to year one but decreased in year two. Although participation in physical activities overall decreased from year one to year two, there was a significant relationship between participation in greater than 150 minutes per week of moderate or vigorous physical activity and adequate weight loss (p =0.025) and participation in health enhancing physical activities and adequate weight loss (p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant relationship noted between any of these eating behaviors and the percentage of excess weight loss at one or two years. There was a significant relationship between degree of hunger reported by patients and successful weight loss at one year (p < 0.05). There is sufficient statistical evidence of a positive linear relationship between two- year weight loss and one- year weight loss (p < 0.05). That is, one-year weight loss is a significant predictor for two- year weight loss. Based on the results of this study, it is recommended that gastric banding patients participate in at least 150 minutes per week of moderate to vigorous physical activity. Additionally, clinicians should consider development of adjustment protocols that achieve early reduction of hunger in the banding patient.

A prática da fitoterapia segura não se verifica apenas por meio da análise do produto final, mas também, na obtenção da espécie vegetal, desde sua identificação, cultivo, colheita, beneficiamento, armazenamento e comercialização. A ausência de qualidade, a adulteração e a utilização incorreta podem interferir na eficácia e até mesmo na segurança do uso do produto. Uma das espécies amplamente utilizada tanto na medicina popular quanto no sistema oficial de saúde é a Maytenus ilicifolia Mart ex Reissek (espinheira-santa) para o tratamento de dispepsias. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os parâmetros de qualidade das amostras secas de espinheira-santa disponíveis nos locais de comercialização formal na cidade de Pelotas. Este estudo tem delineamento classificado como descritivo experimental e analítico. Foram coletadas 11 amostras de plantas medicinais popularmente conhecidas como cancorosa e/ou espinheira-santa, vendidas no comércio formal (farmácias, drogarias e supermercados) e uma amostra padrão coletada no Instituto Federal Sul-rio-grandense, Campus Pelotas - Visconde da Graça. Foram avaliadas características organolépticas e físico-químicas, além dos rótulos dos produtos. Todas as amostras foram reprovadas em pelo menos dois parâmetros analisados, indicando que é necessário ampliar a fiscalização visando garantir a segurança ao consumidor.
The practice of safe phytotherapy does not occur only through the analysis of the final product, but also in obtaining the plant species, from its identification, growing, harvest, processing, storage, and commercialization. The lack of quality, adulteration, and the misuse may interfere with the efficacy and even in the safe use of the product. One of the widely used species is Maytenus ilicifolia Mart ex Reissek (espinheira-santa), which is a common practice both in popular medicine and official health system for treatment of dispepsy. The objective of this work was evaluate the parameters of quality of dry samples of „espinheira-santa‟ available in formal local marketing in the municipality of Pelotas. The design of this study is descriptive, experimental and analytical. Eleven samples of medicinal plants popularly known as „cancorosa‟ and/or „espinheira-santa‟ were collected from formal marketing (pharmacies, drugstores and super markets), and a standard sample was collected from Instituto Federal Sul Riograndense, Campus Pelotas – Visconde da Graça. Physico-chemical and organoleptic characteristics were evaluated, as well as the labels of the products. All samples were not approved at least in two parameters analyzed, indicating that is necessary to expand surveillance to ensure consumer safety.

Abstract:
We have witnessed a change in the Health Information Systems (HIS) in what concerns structure, contents, and support for optimization of the resources, the best efficiency in cost control, and a better management of the quality of services rendered to the citizens. From the standpoint of reformulating the HIS, we can see an evolution in the production of information centered almost exclusively in the need of a documental proof on the care rendered by nurses to the citizens to produce information that can constitute a central resource for their clinical decision making. The authors describe the evolution of the Nursing Information Systems (NIS), reflect upon the impact of reformulation and implementation of the NIS in Portugal in the development of the nursing practice, and reflect upon the impact of the NIS reformulation in the quality of care as well as in education and training in the nursing area.

Abstract:
Quantifying and improving the quality of health care is an increasingly important goal in medicine. Because quality of life is difficult to define and even more difficult to measure - particularly with physically and mentally vulnerable people - outcomes from nursing in continuing care are not easily articulated. The focus of the nursing assessment tool is therefore on increasing quality of life, rather than perceiving health gain simply as increased longevity. Assessment is considered to be the first step in the process of individualized nursing care. It provides information that is critical to the development of a plan of action that enhances personal health status. It also decreases the potential for, or the severity of, chronic conditions and helps the individual to gain control over their health through self-care. In this chapter the authors try to describe how important is the role of information and especially of the Information Technology in healthcare quality assessment.

Abstract:
This chapter will focus on preparing you to undertake an OSCE in the skill of basic life support (BLS), in a cardiac arrest situation, following the Resuscitation Council (UK) Guidelines (2010). Basic life support guidance is aimed especially at adults who in their professions have a duty to respond to a cardiac arrest. Basic life support refers to maintaining the airway, breathing and circulation without the use of any equipment, other than protective devices (Resuscitation Council (UK) 2010). A number of studies (Ahmet and Sarac 2009; Berdowski et al. 2009; Oermann et al. 2011) recognize that effective implementation of guidance is likely to be enhanced by comprehensive and timely education. Soar et al. (2010) suggest that survival from cardiac arrest is dependent on a number of factors—particularly that respondents are well equipped and practiced in the skill and that quality educational packages are readily available to those responders. This chapter will endeavour to provide you with the relevant information to revise the components required to complete an OSCE in the skill. Emphasis is placed on the importance of providing effective, good quality chest compressions whilst minimizing any pauses and so maximizing blood flow and oxygenation. Note: The first aspect of the BLS skill you will be expected to carry out during your OSCE is a full risk assessment of the situation including safety and infection control issues. A respondent to any medical emergency should not put themselves or those around them at any risk. If this is impossible, however, measures should be taken to minimize that risk whilst ensuring no further harm comes to the casualty. In your OSCE, you will be expected to review the surrounding area for hazards, e.g. deep water, electricity, oncoming vehicles, fire and smoke, falling debris, biological threats, etc., to ensure your own and the patient’s safety. Note: This will depend on the way in which your OSCE station has been set up and if there are no threats to yourself or the patient you will need to verbalize to the examiner that you have checked the surrounding area and that it is safe for you to continue.

Abstract:
Systems and synthetic biology promise to develop new approaches for analysis and design of complex gene expression regulatory networks in living cells with many practical applications to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. In this chapter the development of novel universal strategies for exogenous control of gene expression is discussed. They are based on designer allosteric ribozymes that can function in the cell. The synthetic riboswitches are obtained by a patented computational procedure that provides fast and accurate modular designs with various Boolean logic functions. The riboswitches can be designed to sense in the cell either the presence or the absence of disease indicative RNA(s) or small molecules, and to switch on or off the gene expression of any exogenous protein. In addition, the riboswitches can be engineered to induce RNA interference or microRNA pathways that can conditionally down regulate the expression of key proteins in the cell. That can prevent a disease’s development. Therefore, the presented synthetic riboswitches can be used as truly universal cellular biosensors. Nowadays, disease indicative RNA(s) can be precisely identified by employing next-generation sequencing technologies with high accuracy . The methods can be employed not only for exogenous control of gene expression but also for re-programming the cell fate, anticancer, and antiviral gene therapies. Such approaches may be employed as potent molecular medicines of the future.

Abstract:
Surgery and chemotherapy are common treatment modalities used to manage disease and symptoms in palliative settings where the disease is incurable. These treatment modalities can lead to deteriorations in a patient’s quality of life (QOL). The benefits of palliative surgery and chemotherapy should always focus on QOL, symptom control, and symptom prevention. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the definition of palliative surgery and chemotherapy, describe common indications for surgery and chemotherapy for palliative treatment intent, and discuss the role of nursing in caring for patients who are receiving palliative surgery and chemotherapy.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the fundamental nursing in managing breathlessness. Every nurse should possess the knowledge and skills to assess patients holistically, to select and implement evidence-based strategies, to manage breathlessness, and to review the effectiveness of these to inform any necessary changes in care. The nurse has a key role in managing this often frightening symptom, which may be caused by many disorders, including certain heart and respiratory conditions, strenuous exercise, or anxiety. Breathlessness is described as a distressing subjective sensation of uncomfortable breathing (Mosby, 2009) and can be expressed as an unpleasant or uncomfortable awareness of breathing, or of the need to breathe (Gift, 1990). The term dyspnoea, also meaning breathlessness, is derived from the Greek word for difficulty in breathing. Whilst it is difficult to estimate the prevalence of dyspnoea, it is apparent when we exercise beyond our normal tolerance levels; pathologically, dyspnoea occurs with little or no exertion and is a symptom response to different aetiologies (causes of illness). Breathlessness is a common symptom in patients with both cardiac (McCarthy et al., 1996) and respiratory disease (Dean, 2008), and also in people with neuromuscular diseases approaching the end of life; this can prove difficult and distressing to manage (see Chapter 18 Managing End-of-Life Care). There is a peak incidence of chronic dyspnoea in the 55–69 age group (Karnani, 2005), and the prevalence and severity of dyspnoea increases with age. This is associated with an increase in mortality and reduction in quality of life (Huijnen et al., 2006). It is estimated that 70% of all terminal cancer patients experience breathlessness in their last 6 weeks of life (Davis, 1997). Both physiological and psychological responses (including pain, emotion, and anxiety) can lead to an increase in respiratory rate. Breathing is controlled by the respiratory centre in the medulla of the brain. Higher centres in the cerebral hemispheres can voluntarily control respiratory rate so that breathing can be temporarily stopped, slowed, or increased. The respiratory centre generates the basic rhythm of breathing, with the depth and rate being altered in response to the body’s requirements, mainly by nervous and chemical control (Ward and Linden, 2008).

Abstract:
As the first round of baby boomers turn 65 in 2011, we must be prepared for the largest demographic group in history that could need long term care from nursing homes and home health providers. The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address one of the main limitations to the development of intelligent socially assistive robots for health care applications: Robotic control architecture design and implementation with explicit social and assistive task functionalities. In particular, we present the design of a unique learning-based multi-layer decision making control architecture for utilization in determining the appropriate behavior of the robot. Herein, we explore and compare two different learning-based techniques that can be utilized as the main decision-making module of the controller. Preliminary experiments presented show the potential of the integration of the aforementioned techniques into the overall design of such robots intended for assistive scenarios.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: The patient’s statement of the nurse’s poor and needy performance reflects dissatisfaction. Communities need patient-focused services, and the success of nursing care is determined mainly by choice of nursing care delivery models. This study aimed to determine implementation of integrated nursing models toward patient satisfaction in Mitra Medika Amplas Hospital, Medan, North Sumatra. Subject dan Method: This was a quasi-experiment with two group comparison conducted at Mitra Medika Amplas Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. A sample of 77 patients was selected by consecutive sampling. The data were collected by questionnare and analyzed by t-test. Result: The results showed that the level of satisfaction in the intervention group stated that 60 people were satisfied (78%) while the control group stated that 4 people were satisfied (5%). It was statistically significant (p<0,05). Conclusion: The level of patient satisfaction based on the dimensions of tangible quality, empathy, reliability, responsiveness and assurance was higher in the intervention group than in the control group.

The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address two main limitations to the development of intelligent socially assistive robots: (i) identification of human body language via a non-contact sensory system and categorization of these gestures for determining the accessibility level of a person during human-robot interaction, and (ii) decision making control architecture design for determining the learning-based task-driven behavior of the robot during assistive interaction. Preliminary experiments presented show the potential of the integration of the aforementioned techniques into the overall design of such robots intended for assistive scenarios.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Until now, the prevalence of post partum blues has increased every year in all countries. In developed countries such as America, the prevalence of post partum blues from 25% in 2010 to 85% in 2015. In Asia 20%-60% of postpartum women experience post partum blues out of 1000 live births, while in Indonesia it reaches 15%. which was carried out in February 2020 in the northern Surabaya region with the target of postpartum mothers 48 hours to the seventh, 27 out of 33 postpartum mothers showed symptoms of post partum blues with various levels. This figure means that 81% of mothers giving birth experience post partum blues and this results in the bounding of mother and child, decreases in lactation hormones and even continues to become psichosys. The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of bounding and breastfeeding behavior in postpartum mothers with post partum blues in urban Madura, Surabaya. Subejcts and Method: This was an experimental study with non-equivalent control group design conducted in urban Madura, Surabaya. A total of 80 mothers included in this study were divided into 50 mothers as the CBT and 30 mothers as the ELIP groups. The dependent variable was the incidence of post partum blues. The dependent variables were quality of bounding and breastfeeding behavior. The data were collected using qusttionaire then analyzed using t-test. Results: There was a difference in bounding quality (Mean= 6.68; p= 0.003) with breastfeeding behavior (Mean= 6.32; p=0.004) on the incidence of post partum blues. Conclusion: There is a difference in bounding quality with breastfeeding behavior on the incidence of post partum blues.
