Abstract

Coughing is a mechanism for expelling foreign particles or excess mucus in the airway by increasinghigh expiratory pressure. When coughing, the respiratory muscles that control cough production are theinspiratory and expiratory muscles. Weakness of the expiratory muscle can affect to the ability to generatesufficient pressure to cough. In generally, a decrease in respiratory muscle’s strength can occur in patientswho have experience of prolonged immobilization, elderly people who suffer from sarcopenia, to strokepatients. The untrained healthy persons were not realizing the effects of their lifestyle which can reduce therectus abdominis muscle as an additional expiratory muscle. If it occurred in long time, it will reduce thelung function capacity of force expiratory volume (FEV1) and force vital capacity (FVC). The subjects ofthis study were 16 untrained healthy males with aged 18-40 years. Furthermore, they divided into 2 groups,the intervention group with Expiratory Muscle Trainer (EMT) training plus of Neuromuscular ElectricalStimulation (NMES) on the rectus abdominis muscle and the control group with exercise with ExpiratoryMuscle Trainer only. The outcome was measured for FEV1 and FVC by spirometry. The results of this studywere indicating an increase in FEV1 and FVC in each group however. The intervention group was increaseof FEV1 0.22+0.22 (p value=0.18) and the control group was 0.01+0.39 (p value=0.92). The interventiongroup was increase of FVC 0.50+0.48 (p value=0.02) and the control group was 0.32+0.51 (p value=0.12).The FEV1 results between the two groups were not significant difference (p value=0.21) and as well as FVCresults after 4 weeks of training. In summary, this study concluded that EMT training with NMES increasedFVC even though the difference between the two was not significant.

Abstract

Background: Public knowledge regarding health services has been increasing significantly in the recentyears and it has an effect on increasing community demands for quality health services. Therefore, healthworkers with good skills, intelligent, and communicative are needed. Good competence is also needed incarrying out their roles and functions according to the code of ethics The competencies of health workergraduates are different in every regions in Indonesia. The majority of health workers perceive that theircurrent competencies are not in accordance with their expectations. To ensure that health workers producedby educational institutions have the same competence, all health worker graduates are required to take acompetency test as a requirement for obtaining a registration certificate. Exit exam is a competency test thatis conducted as a requirement for graduation. This study aims to provide an overview of the relationshipbetween the knowledge, perceptions, motivation and expectations of nursing and midwifery students onthe competency test as a graduation requirement. Methods: This is a mix-method study (A quantitativeand qualitative methods were used). The quantitative method used was non-experimental, with a crosssectionalapproach, and qualitative methods to find out information about the perceptions, motivations andexpectations of respondents about the implementation of the competency exam as a passing requirement.The number of samples in this study were 246 respondents, consisting of DIII midwifery, Nursing DIII andnurses (82 respondents for each colleges). Results: The results of the study based on the path analysis showedthat education had no influence on knowledge, respondents’ perceptions and expectations of the competencytest, but had an influence on motivation (P = < 0.01). Knowledge does not affect on perception, motivationor expectation, while for perception variable affects on motivation (P = 0.026) and expectation (P= <0.01).Conclusion: Respondents’ expectations will be directly influenced by motivation and perception.

Abstract

Background: Neck pain prevalence varies widely on different studies. Poor ergonomic work habit suchas prolonged constrained work position with persistent neck or spine flexion may imply a risk factor.Maintaining poor posture for long periods of time can result in chronic muscular fatigue, discomfort orpain, leading to pathological effects like Trapezitis and permanent disability. Exercises has proved to bevery important for neck pain. Neck muscle exercises if given thus will prove to be beneficial in improvingstability of the neck muscle.Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of corrective exercise over conventional exercises in individualssuffering from Trapezitis.Methods: - It is a comparative experimental study.This study includes (N=40) subjects with neck painwithin age group of 25-45 years. They were randomly assigned into 2 groups (Group A and B). Group A had20 (N=20) subjects who are treated with Corrective exercises, Group B had 20 (N=20) who are treated withConventional exercises. The subjects were given intervention 5 days a week for 2 weeks.Result: Paired sample t-test was used for within group analysis. Independent sample t-test was done toanalyse between group variables. No significant difference was found in NDI (p<0.001), VAS (p <0.001)between Corrective and Conventional groups while within the groups all outcome measures shows significantdifference in bothbetween Corrective and Conventional groups(p=0.01).Conclusion: -This study concluded that both the treatment techniques,between Corrective and Conventionalwere effective in alleviating the pain in individuals suffering from Trapezitis.

Abstract

Background & Objective: Proper nutrition is a very important factor in maintaining and promoting health and its role has been proven to be a determining factor in chronic diseases. To better understand the relationship between nutrition and diseases, it is best to consider nutrition as a diet and identify the factors associated with it. This study tended to determine the factors related to the dominant diets (demographic, social, economic, anthropometric and physical activity factors) in adults in Gonabad. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in 2019 on adults in Gonabad. The sampling method was random stratified. The instruments used in this study were the Food Frequency Questionnaire, the Baecke Physical Activity Questionnaire, and scale and measuring tape. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify the dominant diets. Independent T-tests, analysis of variance, chi-square and multiple regression were used to determine the factors associated with diets. Data was analyzed using SPSS software version 14.5 (p<0.05).Results: The results showed a statistically significant relationship between unhealthy diet with age (p<0.001), gender (p=0.015), job (p=0.025), number of family members (p=0.038), income (p=0.001), waist circumference (p=0.013) and physical activity (p=0.002). These variables predict a total of 17.6% of variance in unhealthy diet. Moreover, there was a statistically significant relationship between healthy diet and age (p<0.001), number of family members (p=0.015), waist circumference (p<0.001) and physical activity (p=0.0288). These variables predict a total of 32.7% variance in healthy diet.Conclusion: In general, the results of this study show that demographic, social, economic, anthropometric and physical factors play an important role in determining the type of dominant diet.

Abstract

Introduction: Beta thalassemia is an inherited genetic disorder that is associated with severe physical and mental illnesses. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of “Friends” program training on the loneliness of children with thalassemia major at thalassemia centers of Golestan.Materials and Methods: This quasi-intervention study with two intervention and control groups was conducted on 50 children with thalassemia major aged 8-18 years referred to thalassemia centers in Golestan province in 2019. In the intervention group, the Friends program training was carried out in ten 60-minute long sessions. Demographic information form and Asher’s children loneliness questionnaire were the tools used for data collection. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software version 25 at the significance level of P < 0.05.Results: The results showed that, the mean score of loneliness before the intervention was 33.32 ± 10.61 in the intervention group and 41.4 ± 12.20 in the control group. The mean score of loneliness after the intervention decreased to 28.36 ± 7.74 in the intervention group, and 40.68 ± 11.68 in the control group. The ANCOVA test showed a significant difference in the mean score of loneliness after the intervention by removing the effect of pretest (P = 0.01). Conclusion: The use of Friends program training can be considered as an efficient method in improving medical outcomes related to the loneliness of children with thalassemia and limiting unnecessary health care costs.
