When it comes to an eerie, deadly and chronic disease like cancer, the individual is much more likely to be affected by it. Objective: This descriptive study aims to identify quality of life and level of social support and the affecting factors in cancer patients. Methods: The sample included 170 patients who applied to internal diseases, radiation oncology, thorax diseases clinics and chemotherapy polyclinic in a university hospital in Turkey between March and August, 2005, who met the research criteria, and who volunteered to participate in the study. The sample represented 20 % of the target population. Data were collected through SF-36 Quality of Life Scale and Multidimensional Scale of perceived social support. Results: The patients’ global quality of life mean score was found 38.67 ± 13.64, and mean score for the perceived social support was found 59.19 ± 17.5. Global quality of life score was higher in those who underwent an operation and who received ambulatory health care. Although global quality of life was not influenced by the gender variable, male patients’ level of well-being was found to be higher. Perceived social support total score was found to be higher in those who knew about their disease. Family support was found to be higher in those who were married and who lived in town; it was found to be low in those who had low socio-economic level and who received inpatient treatment. Friend support was found to be high in those who knew about their disease. Conclusion: There was a linear relationship between perceived social support and quality of life. It is recommended that more studies with wider groups of participants would shed more light to the issue of identifying quality of life, social support level and the relationships between them in cancer patients.

But a study exploring the burden among family caregivers has not yet been conducted in Indonesia, a country which has strong family bonds among family members. Objective: This present study aimed to identify the burden among family caregivers of advanced cancer patients. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study conducted from December 2016 to February 2017 on 178 consenting family caregivers and advanced cancer patients, selected using a purposive sampling technique. The Caregiver Reaction Assessment (CRA) was used to measure their burden. Data were analyzed using descriptive analyzes and bivariate analyzes. Results: The burden among family caregivers was 2.38 ± 0.38 (mean range 1-5). The highest burden was in the disrupted schedule domain. Conclusion: Our findings identified that the burden among family caregivers was at the medium level. The length of care per day and family support are potential targets for preventative intervention strategies to reduce the burden among the family caregivers.

Background: Cambodia’s nursing profession and nursing education system continue to progress 40 years after destruction by the Khmer Rouge. The author, who has a relationship with a hospital in southern Cambodia, was asked to teach physical assessment techniques to improve patient care. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of culturally congruent physical assessment media on the knowledge-base of Cambodian nurses. Methods: This article describes two years of an on-going project designed by the author who annually recruits US based BSN nursing students to use the ADDIE model to create and record segments on physical assessment which are posted on a private You Tube channel for the limited English- speaking Cambodian nursing staff. Optional post-tests are administered by the Cambodian hospital’s nursing director. Results: Test results reflect knowledge gained on cardiac, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal physical assessment skills with means ranging from 73.55% to 95.71%. Physical assessment skills until recently were not taught in Cambodia's nursing programs. Cambodia's nursing profession is advancing and a corresponding skill set including conducting physical assessments is necessary. As a majority of the project participants did not have prior exposure to the material, a pre-test was not provided and participation in post-testing was optional. The objective was to provide useful professional educational materials at a comfortable language level for the Cambodian nurses using examples which were culturally relevant. Conclusion: The BSN students successfully developed culturally relevant educational products the Cambodian nurses found useful.

Background: Health disparity can be observed using the lens of emancipation through nursing. Objective: This paper aims to describe the concept of emancipation through nursing, situate its position within the theory of ’Emancipation through Nursing,’ and illuminate the implications of caring within the context of health disparity. Methods: The sequential process of Rodgers’ Evolutionary Concept Analysis and Chinn and Kramer’s Process of Theory Construction were applied. Review of the literature utilizing six major databases was conducted using the keywords ‘emancipation’ or ‘empowerment’ and ‘health disparity’ and ‘nursing’ and with year restrictions from 2000-2017. Results: Findings revealed that the attributes of the concept of ‘emancipation through nursing’ are conscientization or critical consciousness, correct and adequate health information, co-construction of a creative process for health service, and collective action. These attributes were preceded by the following antecedents: marginalization, hegemony, the oppressed and the emancipator, centering, and liberation. The resulting features of enlightenment, enervation, empowerment, and evolvement served as constructs that collectively structured the theory of Emancipation through Nursing in the Context of Health Disparities. Conclusion: Nurses worldwide will benefit from descriptions and illuminations of the concepts of emancipation and nursing within the theory of Emancipation through Nursing in the Context of Health Disparities.

Publisher : Belitung Raya Foundation, Indonesia

Meningioma is the most common type of primary brain tumor, which affect several domains of life, such as physiological, psychological, and social life conditions. Although surgery has been performed on meningioma patients in Indonesia, some patients still experience sequelae such as headache, impaired mobilization, disruption of activity, and visual disturbances. This narrative review aims to describe nursing rehabilitation programs in patients with meningioma in Indonesia. As a result, the nursing rehabilitation program is considered as an integral part of multidisciplinary rehabilitation, which can be applied in the nursing rehabilitation center and in the form of telenursing. The roles of nurses include providing evidence-based direct care, psychosocial support, patient / family education, care coordination, and continuing health promotion starting from the period of patient care in the hospital to discharge. In conclusion, the nursing rehabilitation program has the potential to improve the quality of life in meningioma patients, especially in Indonesia.
