Abstract

Influenza poses significant health risks to pregnant women, leading to increased morbidity and mortality rates compared to the general population. Despite the proven efficacy of the influenza vaccine in mitigating these risks, vaccination rates among pregnant women remain suboptimal. This study examines nurses' knowledge and attitudes regarding influenza vaccination for pregnant women within the AL-Zubair primary health sector in Basrah, Iraq, addressing the gap in understanding healthcare providers' roles in promoting vaccination. Prior research has highlighted the need for enhanced education and communication strategies among healthcare workers to improve vaccination uptake, yet specific data on nurses' knowledge in this context are limited. The study aims to assess nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding influenza vaccination for pregnant women. Among the 88 surveyed nurses, a majority demonstrated adequate knowledge and favorable attitudes towards vaccination, with significant gaps in awareness regarding the consequences of influenza for newborns. Notably, 51.1% acknowledged the vaccine's utility in protecting pregnant women. This research provides crucial insights into the educational needs of nurses, which are essential for fostering effective patient education strategies. The findings underscore the importance of targeted educational interventions to enhance nurses' understanding of influenza vaccination, ultimately aiming to improve vaccination rates among pregnant women and reduce associated health risks.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge of healthcare providers, specifically nurses, regarding suturing skills, methods, and types at Al-Basrah Teaching Hospital. A descriptive cross-sectional approach was adopted from January 1, 2023, to July 30, 2023. A purposive sample of 100 nurses, representing both genders and various wards, participated. Preliminary validation was conducted through a pilot study involving ten healthcare providers, and Cronbach's Alpha assessed the survey's reliability. Data analysis was executed using SPSS version 26, focusing on descriptive statistics (mean, SD, frequency) and inferential statistics (chi-square). The demographic profile showed an equal distribution in age (50% aged 20-35), a slight female predominance (52%), and a majority holding diplomas (56%). Results indicated a moderate level of knowledge and proficiency in suturing skills and techniques among the participants. These findings suggest a need for enhanced training and education in suturing to improve patient care outcomes in clinical settings. Highlights : Moderate Suturing Proficiency: Nurses displayed a medium level of knowledge and skill in suturing techniques. Demographic Diversity: Sample included a balanced age distribution, slight female predominance, and majority diploma holders. Training Implications: Results highlight the necessity for improved suturing education to enhance patient care quality. Keywords : Suturing Skills, Nurse Education, Healthcare Training, Cross-Sectional Study, Clinical Competency

Abstract

This study aims to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of nursing students regarding insulin therapy. Conducted at the College of Nursing - University of Basrah, the research utilized a questionnaire to gather data from 200 participants over a six-month period. Results indicate a good overall level of knowledge about insulin therapy, a fair attitude towards it, and a medium level of suggested practice. Interestingly, while there was a significant correlation between participants' knowledge and gender, no discernible relationships were found between knowledge and other demographic variables, nor between attitudes and any demographic factors. This suggests the need for targeted educational interventions to improve attitudes and practices towards insulin therapy among nursing students. Highlights: Varied knowledge levels among nursing students. Positive attitudes towards insulin therapy. Need for tailored educational interventions. Keywords: Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice, Nursing Students, Insulin Therapy

Abstract

Despite the critical role of pacemakers in managing symptomatic atrioventricular and ventricular conduction abnormalities, there remains a significant gap in the knowledge and attitudes of nurses towards these devices. This study assesses the understanding and perceptions of pacemakers among nurses in Al-Basrah Governorate hospitals, exploring associations with demographic factors such as age, gender, educational level, years of experience, and training. Employing a descriptive methodology, a non-probability sample of 200 nurses from five hospitals (Abi Al-Khasib General Hospital, Umm Qasr General Hospital, Al-Zubair General Hospital, Al-Shifaa Hospital, and Al-Mawani Teaching Hospital) was surveyed from October 15, 2022, to August 15, 2023. Content validity was ensured by engaging eleven professionals, while reliability was assessed using Cronbach's Alpha. Results indicate a concerning deficiency in pacemaker-related knowledge, with 79.5% of nurses demonstrating poor knowledge, 18% showing intermediate knowledge, and only 2.5% exhibiting high knowledge. Similarly, attitudes were predominantly negative, with 81.5% of nurses expressing low enthusiasm towards pacemakers, while 11% and 7.5% displayed intermediate and high attitudes, respectively. These findings highlight the need for targeted educational interventions aimed at enhancing nurses' competence and attitudes concerning pacemakers to improve postoperative care and management outcomes for patients with these devices. Highlights: Knowledge Gap: A significant 79.5% of nurses show insufficient knowledge of pacemakers, indicating a critical need for improved medical education. Attitudinal Barriers: Over 81% of nurses have negative attitudes towards pacemakers, which may affect patient care quality. Training Requirement: There's a clear need for specialized training programs for nurses on pacemakers to enhance their knowledge and attitudes, ultimately improving patient care. Keywords: Pacemaker Knowledge, Nursing Attitudes, Educational Interventions

Abstract

Background: One psychological idea frequently connected to treating chronic illnesses, such as hypertension, is self-efficacy. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of hypertensive patients to manage their chronic condition and to determine the link between participants' socio-demographic factors and their self-efficacy in controlling hypertension. Methods: A correlational descriptive design was implemented from October 2022 to March 2024. The study sample was purposive (non-probability), consisting of 171 patients with hypertension. Data were gathered via a Google Form, which includes a socio-demographic data section and the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale (SES6C). Results: A modest level of self-efficacy among hypertension patients was statistically validated, including 58% of the study population. Equally important, a statistically significant inverse association exists between participants' age and their self-efficacy in controlling hypertension (r = -.250 at p = 0.01). Furthermore, a statistically significant disparity exists in the self-efficacy of hypertension management across gender groups (p-value = .041), age categories (p-value = .000), reading groups (p-value = .032), marital status categories (p-value = .000), follow-up groups (p-value = .000), and exercise groups (p-value = .000). Conclusion: The study's findings indicate a statistically significant difference and link between socio-demographic variables and self-efficacy in treating hypertension. This indicates that self-efficacy in controlling hypertension is a multifaceted notion, and a singular component cannot dictate its trajectory. It is, instead, a result of the interplay of various elements, such as age, gender, experience, and education. Highlights: Assess socio-demographic factors' impact on self-efficacy in hypertension management. Correlational design with 171 hypertensive patients via SES6C scale. Self-efficacy in hypertension control is influenced by diverse socio-demographic factors. Keywords: Self-Efficacy, Hypertension, Chronic Disease, Capacity, Patients

Background: Usually manifesting in early childhood, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that impacts social communication and behavior. Objectives: The present study aims to contribute to raising awareness about autism spectrum disorder (ASD) through my research on assessing parents’ knowledge and awareness of its symptoms and management strategies. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 100 parents (both fathers and mothers) of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to assess their knowledge of ASD symptoms, management strategies, and awareness levels. The sample was collected from the My Family Center for Autism in Basrah city. The questionnaire was distributed to the parents and collected approximately one week later. The collected data were then analyzed statistically, yielding the following results. Results: It was found that 80% of the parents had a moderate to good level of knowledge regarding ASD management strategies, while 20% had poor knowledge. For ASD symptoms, 75% showed moderate to good awareness, and 25% had poor understanding. The ratio of correct to incorrect answers per parent was approximately 3:1 for both parts of the questionnaire. Conclusion: Most parents demonstrated acceptable knowledge about ASD management strategies, and also most showed sufficient awareness of its symptoms. However, the remaining parents with lower knowledge levels require targeted educational programs to improve their understanding and support for children with autism spectrum disorder. Highlights: High parental awareness of ASD symptoms and management was observed. 75–80% of parents had moderate to good knowledge levels.
