Abstract

Background: Determining parental resilience in children with cancer is essential to ensuring parents’ involvement in caring for children in hospitals. Existing quantitative research evaluates factors influencing resilience in mothers but has not fully explored the determinants of resilience in parents of children with cancer. Studying parents more broadly is essential, as contemporary caregiving roles increasingly involve both mothers and fathers, offering a more comprehensive understanding of family dynamics.Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the determinants of parental resilience in children with cancer.Methods: Correlational research with a cross-sectional design was conducted in the pediatric ward of a tertiary hospital in Indonesia. A total of 102 parents of children with cancer were recruited using consecutive sampling. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, the 10-item Connor Davidson Resilience Scale (10-item CDRC), the Hert Hope Index (HHI), the International Personality Item Pool – Big Five Factor Markers 50 (IPIP-BFM-50), Parenting Stress Index (PSI), and the Survey of Family Environment (SFE). Quantitative data were analyzed using path analysis.Results: The results showed that the mean (SD) of the resilience score was 27.20 (5.79), personality 102.44 (19.11), hope 24.80 (6.04), parenting stress 39.22 (10.15), coping 39.84 (9.81), and family environment 84.57 (21.87). Resilience was directly influenced by hope (p=0.000), family environment (p=0.001), and coping (p=0.051). Personality indirectly influenced resilience (p=0.004). Path analysis revealed a Chi-square value of 0.000, a Root Mean Squared Estimate of Approximation (RMSEA) of 0.286, and values for the Normed Fit Index (NFI), Comparative Fit Index (CFI), Incremental Fit Index (IFI), and Goodness-of-Fit Index (GFI) were nearly close to 1, indicating the model had a nearly good fit.Conclusion: Parental resilience was determined by hope, family environment, and coping. Strengthening these factors can enhance resilience and support better outcomes for families and children with cancer.

Abstract

Background: Post-CABG patients may experience several problems following surgery. Their functional capacity and productivity often decline after the procedure. Walking exercise is considered beneficial for improving functional capacity and productivity, as it can increase cardiac output. However, previous studies have shown mixed results, highlighting the need for further research that takes into account variables such as the type, intensity, frequency, and duration of exercise to better understand its impact.Purpose: This study aimed to assess the effect of walking exercise on functional capacity and productivity in patients after CABG.Methods: This study used a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design with a single-blind outcome assessor. The sample size was 42 respondents, who were divided into the intervention and control groups. The intervention group received walking exercise and leg straightening, while the control group received only leg straightening. The 6-Minute Walking Test (MWT) was used to measure functional capacity, while the WPAI measured productivity. Data analysis used independent and dependent t-tests for normally distributed variables such as functional capacity, impairment while working, and activity impairment, and Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon tests for variables that were not normally distributed, such as work time missed and overall work impairment.Results: This study showed a significant effect of walking exercise on functional capacity (6.262±0.597 vs. 5.762±0.559, p=0.008), impairment while working (27.14±10.556 vs. 36.67±12.383, p=0.011), and activity impairment (23.81±6.690 vs. 19.52±6.690, p=0.044). Moreover, the study’s results showed no significant difference in work time missed (4.086±7.003 vs. 3.900±6.288, p=0.967) and overall work impairment (3.795±4.756 vs. 3.757±4.628, p=0.696) between the groups.Conclusion: Walking exercise improves cardiac function and metabolism, which increases adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, thereby enhancing functional capacity and productivity in patients. Nurses should play active roles in encouraging and educating post-CABG patients to incorporate regular walking exercises into their recovery routines.

Abstract

Background: Several studies have been conducted to investigate the trends of erectile dysfunction (ED) among individuals with diabetes. Nonetheless, a comprehensive analysis of the literature concerning ED among individuals with diabetes is required, especially in the nursing field, which yet remains elusive.Purpose: This study uses bibliometric and visualized analysis to analyze the global scientific trends and research keywords of previous studies on ED in diabetes published from 2012 to 2022.Methods: The literature, specifically related to ED in diabetes, was obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database. VOS viewer, Cite Space, and Excel 2019 were used to examine the journal title, research frontiers, authors, institutions, countries, and citation reports.Results: A total of 2,367 articles on ED and diabetes between 2012 and 2022 were identified as of September 30, 2022. The global trend was comparatively declining in the last two years (2021 and 2022). International Journal of Impotence Research (568 papers) owned the highest number of publications. A.L. Burnett (41 papers) was the top most productive author, and T. F. Lue had the largest number of citations (842 citations) during the past decades. USA was the leading contributor in this field, with 668 articles. Active cooperation between countries and between institutions was observed. The main keywords and exciting topics related to ED were frontiers of physical activity included in therapy, quality of life, and oxidative stress.Conclusion: Global trend of research on ED in people with diabetes increased up to 2020 and decreased in 2021 and 2022. Nurses and healthcare should explore the links between oxidative stress, physical activity, and quality of life among diabetes with ED.

Abstract

Background: Headaches are common among students due to academic stress and poor sleep habits. One way to reduce headaches is through neck exercises using Thariqah movements. Previous studies have focused only on physical neck exercises, yet a more holistic approach by combining dzikr (Laa ilaha ilallah) recited Thariqah movements with the exercises has never been studied.Purpose: This study aimed to determine the impact of Thariqah-based neck exercises on headache intensity experienced by college students.Methods: The study used a two-arm parallel randomized controlled trial design. College nursing students were recruited through purposive sampling and then sequentially randomized, with 64 respondents in each group. Participants in the intervention group performed Thariqah-based neck exercises during dzikr three times per week for three weeks, while those in the control group received educational leaflets on headache management. Headache intensity was measured using the Numeric Pain Scale (0-10 scale). Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests.Results: The results showed that Thariqah-based neck exercises performed during dzikr had a significant effect on reducing headache intensity among students (p= 0.000). The differences in headache intensity before and after the intervention were also significant between the intervention and control groups (p=0.000).Conclusion: Neck exercises based on Thariqah movements accompanied by dzikr recitation may serve as a practical option for self-therapy or complementary therapy in managing mild to moderate headache complaints. The integration of physical and spiritual elements offers potential benefits for both physical relief and emotional well-being.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a common chronic condition that leads to serious complications and negatively affects patients’ quality of life (QoL). Therefore, improving hypertension management and understanding factors that influence QoL has become an important goal in patient care. However, in Hue, Vietnam, no research has been conducted to evaluate how sociodemographic factors affect the QoL of hypertensive patients.Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the sociodemographic factors influencing the quality of life of hypertensive patients in Hue, Vietnam.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 172 hypertensive patients receiving treatment at the Internal Medicine Department in Hue, Vietnam. Given the limited timeframe and research resources, convenience sampling was employed to facilitate rapid and effective participant recruitment. Descriptive statistics were used to examine the mean quality of life (QoL) scores, which were assessed using the WHOQOL-BREF scale. Independent t-tests and ANOVA were performed to analyze differences in QoL across sociodemographic factors within the four WHOQOL-BREF domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environmental health. Linear regression analysis was applied to identify associations between QoL domains and the independent variables.Results: The results showed that 93.6% of patients had a moderate level of QoL. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that age, economic status, and physical activity were positively associated with three QoL domains: physical, psychological, and environmental health. However, place of residence was negatively associated with the environmental domain (95% CI = -5.64, -0.97), and the presence of comorbidity was negatively associated with three domains: physical health (95% CI = -7.76, -2.00), psychological health (95% CI = -6.47, -0.64), and environmental health (95% CI = -4.84, -0.07).Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that younger age, a moderate to high economic status, and engagement in regular physical activity are positively associated with higher QoL scores. Conversely, residing in rural areas and having comorbid conditions are negatively associated with QoL. These results underscore the need for targeted and context-specific interventions aimed at enhancing the quality of life in individuals living with hypertension.

Abstract

Background: Interprofessional education (IPE) has been recognized globally as critical for preparing health professionals to deliver collaborative and patient-centered care. In the Philippines, however, IPE remains in its early stages of development, with limited standardization across institutions and scarce research focused on faculty perceptions. Faculty play a vital role in implementing and sustaining IPE initiatives, making their perspectives essential to understanding the current landscape and barriers to IPE integration.Purpose: This study aimed to assess the perceptions of IPE among faculty members teaching in allied health programs in the Philippines and to identify factors influencing their attitudes toward interprofessional collaboration.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was employed, surveying 328 faculty members from accredited Philippine institutions through a self-administered online questionnaire. Participants were selected using convenience sampling. The Interdisciplinary Education Perception Scale (IEPS) was used to measure perceptions, with excellent internal reliability (Cronbach’s α=0.984). Statistical analyses, including independent t-tests and one-way ANOVA, were conducted using SPSS version 27 after checking for normality (Shapiro-Wilk test) and homogeneity of variance (Levene’s test).Results: Faculty members demonstrated generally positive perceptions of IPE, particularly in valuing collaboration and recognizing the need for cooperation. No significant differences were found in overall perception scores based on age, gender, region, or years of teaching experience in the academe and years of clinical or professional practice in their respective health fields. However, statistically significant differences were observed across programs for perceived need for cooperation (p=0.000) and perception of actual cooperation (p=0.001), indicating a gap between intent and practice.Conclusion: While allied health faculty in the Philippines express supportive attitudes toward IPE, actual interprofessional collaboration remains limited. These findings highlight the need for faculty development initiatives, institution-wide policy frameworks, and longitudinal research to bridge the gap between perception and practice. Strengthening IPE implementation will be crucial to preparing future healthcare professionals for collaborative roles in improving patient outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Patients with heart disease often experience anxiety as a response to physiological changes, and massage therapy is one of the alternative treatments available to alleviate this condition. Although the benefits of massage therapy in reducing anxiety are well recognized, there is a lack of focused research evaluating its specific effects on individuals with heart disease.Purpose: This review aims to systematically assess the effects of massage therapy on anxiety levels in patients with heart disease.Methods: A systematic review of the literature published between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2020, was conducted using the PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, CrossRef, and Google Scholar databases. Seventeen studies that met the inclusion criteria were selected for review. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tool, and the findings were synthesized narratively.Results: The review indicates that massage therapy has a positive effect on reducing anxiety in patients with heart disease. Various massage techniques consistently demonstrated significant anxiety-reducing outcomes. However, the heterogeneity of massage therapy techniques limits the ability to draw conclusions about the comparative effectiveness of existing studies, particularly in reducing anxiety levels.Conclusion: Based on this systematic review, massage therapy appears to significantly reduce anxiety levels in patients with heart disease, including both surgical and non-surgical populations. This review highlights the value of integrating massage therapy into holistic patient care, especially for managing anxiety and enhancing comfort.

Abstract

Background: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has exposed nurses to conditions that threaten their health, well-being, and ability to work. While the physical health of nurses has received more attention, there has been limited focus on the long-term psychological effects. In Bangladesh, there is very limited research on anxiety and sleep disturbances among nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic.Purpose: This study aimed to assess the relationship among anxiety, sleep disturbances, and sociodemographic factors in nurses working at COVID-19 dedicated hospitals in Bangladesh.Methods: A descriptive correlational study was conducted among 102 nurses selected using a convenience sampling technique from two dedicated COVID-19 hospitals. The self-administered Anxiety Scale and Medical Outcome Study Sleep Scale were used to collect data. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used. Descriptive statistics included frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, minimum, and maximum. Pearson product-moment correlation (r), t-tests, and ANOVA were used for inferential analyses.Results: About two-fifths (40.2%) of the nurses reported mild to moderate levels of anxiety, and the majority (84.3%) experienced sleep disturbances. A significant positive correlation (r=0.54, p=0.000) was found between anxiety and sleep disturbances. There was a significant relationship between nurses’ age and anxiety (p=0.000), marital status (p=0.000), family type (p=0.000) highest professional education (p=0.000), working duration (r=–0.38, p=0.000), COVID-19 positive history (p=0.016), training (p=0.000), and presence of comorbidity (p=0.008). Additionally, age (p=0.000), marital status (p=0.020), family type (p=0.000) highest professional education (p=0.000), working duration (r=0.363, p=0.000), training (p=0.002), and presence of comorbidity (p=0.015) were also significantly associated with sleep disturbances.Conclusion: The findings indicate that age, gender, education, family type, marital status, training, and comorbidity were significantly associated with increased levels of anxiety and sleep disturbances. These results highlight the importance of addressing these sociodemographic factors in mental health interventions to better support the well-being of frontline nurses during the pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Stroke-associated Pneumonia (SAP) is one of the complications that occur in stroke patients and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. Risk factors for SAP and its impact on discharge status remain unclear.Purpose: This study aimed to determine the factors influencing the incidence of stroke-related pneumonia in the hospital and the patient’s discharge status.Methods: A case-control study was conducted at a private hospital in Surabaya from January 2021 to 2022. Medical record data were reviewed to identify stroke patients with suspected or confirmed pneumonia, after which risk factors (age, gender, stroke type, length of stay, stroke frequency, dysphagia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, COVID-19, and discharge status) associated with the occurrence of SAP were examined. We excluded diagnoses of diseases with clinical manifestations such as tuberculosis-like pneumonia, lung tumor, pulmonary edema, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary atelectasis, and incomplete or missing medical record data. Data analysis used the Chi-square test to identify the risk factors for stroke-associated pneumonia.Results: One hundred sixty-three stroke patients treated in all inpatient rooms were diagnosed with pneumonia; 52.8% of them had confirmed pneumonia, while the rest were still suspected of pneumonia. Most pneumonia occurs in ischemic stroke patients (93.9%), first-time stroke patients (87.1%), experienced dysphagia (55.2%), length of stay less than 7 days (55.2%), hypertension (55.2%), diabetes mellitus (57.1%), and discharged home (84%). We also found as much as 12.9% inpatient mortality due to SAP. Dysphagia, DM, and COVID-19 were significantly correlated with the incidence of stroke-associated pneumonia (p=0.000).Conclusion: Stroke-associated pneumonia is a substantial medical complication among stroke patients affected by dysphagia, DM, and COVID-19. Screening for dysphagia is necessary for nurses to prevent SAP in stroke patients.
