Abstract

Commonly, primiparous are unfamiliar with the experience of dealing with a newborn, nor do they have the competence to take care of them. A high level of self-efficacy will increase maternal competence in dealing with the newborn. The study aimed to (1) determine the level of maternal sense of competence among primiparous women in Jordan, (2) determine the level of perceived maternal self-efficacy among primiparous women in Jordan, (3) determine whether a significant relationship exists between maternal sense of competence and perceived maternal self-efficacy, and (4) identify whether sociodemographic characteristics are significantly related with maternal sense of competence and perceived maternal self-efficacy. The study employed a cross-sectional, descriptive correlational research design. Recruitment was performed at the King Abdullah University Hospital. A total of 89 participants joined the study. The Maternal Efficacy Questionnaire (MEQ) measured the perceived maternal self-efficacy, and the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (PSOCS) measured the maternal sense of competence. Participants had a moderate positive maternal sense of competence and a high level of perceived maternal self-efficacy. Age had a weak positive but significant relationship with a maternal sense of competence. No significant relationships were found between maternal sense of competence and perceived maternal self-efficacy. Maternal self-competence and self-efficacy are significant components that make up a mother's armamentarium to perform parenting skills and make decisions about child-rearing. However, no significant relationship was found between perceived maternal self-competence and maternal self-efficacy. Future research should explore what factors drive low self-competence and self-efficacy among primiparous women. Nurses can assist and support mothers in improving their perceived self-competence levels and help mothers sustain the already high levels of maternal self-efficacy. Interventions must be multidimensional and multidisciplinary, involving other specialties such as midwives, nurses, and breastfeeding counselors.

Abstract

The holistic approach in nursing requires consideration of the cultures of patients receiving healthcare. Every individual has the right to receive culturally appropriate nursing care, which is not a privilege but a human right. This study was utilized to determine the relationship between intercultural sensitivity and cultural intelligence in nurses. The study population consisted of 741 nurses working at state hospitals in Northern Cyprus. A stratified sampling method was used to recruit 300 participants. A descriptive information form, intercultural sensitivity scale, and cultural intelligence scale were used for data collection. The mean intercultural sensitivity scale and cultural intelligence scale scores were 76.20±8.92 and 64.72±14.2, respectively. There was a positive and statistically significant relationship between the intercultural sensitivity scale scores and the scores obtained from the cultural intelligence scale and its subscales (p<0.05). Squared partial correlation showed that the place of residence had the highest impact on intercultural sensitivity. The levels of intercultural sensitivity were moderate, but cultural intelligence was low. There was a positive relationship between intercultural sensitivity and cultural intelligence and its subscales. Therefore, we recommend planning in-service training to improve the levels of cultural intelligence and intercultural sensitivity so that nurses can provide high-quality nursing care, avoid discrimination, and establish therapeutic relationships with people with different cultural backgrounds, whose numbers have increased as a result of factors, such as migration or health tourism.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health problem in Indonesia, particularly in peri-urban and high-burden areas. Inadequate infant feeding practices and incomplete immunization are recognized as modifiable determinants of chronic undernutrition, yet local evidence examining their association with stunting is limited. This study examined the association between basic immunization status and exclusive breastfeeding with stunting among toddlers in Cilowong Subdistrict, Serang Regency, Indonesia. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 toddlers aged 6–59 months selected through simple random sampling from the local Posyandu registry. Data were collected between February 2025 using structured interviews with mothers or primary caregivers and standardized anthropometric measurements. Stunting was defined as height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) < −2 SD based on WHO Child Growth Standards. Immunization status was verified using the child’s KMS and health center records, while exclusive breastfeeding was assessed through maternal report. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-square tests to calculate prevalence ratios (PR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The prevalence of stunting was 66.0%. Incomplete basic immunization was found in 63.0% of children, and only 15.0% had received exclusive breastfeeding. Incomplete immunization was significantly associated with stunting (PR = 5.05; 95% CI: 2.07–12.32; p = 0.001), as was non-exclusive breastfeeding (PR = 11.46; 95% CI: 2.95–44.41; p < 0.001). Incomplete immunization and lack of exclusive breastfeeding are strongly associated with stunting, underscoring the need for integrated community-based interventions through primary health care services.

Abstract

Nurses must have communication skills, empathy, and the ability to deal with the challenges of patient care effectively. Emotional intelligence and psychological resilience are skills that nurses can develop in adapting, collaborating, and providing quality patient care. This study aims to determine the effect of the emotional intelligence levels of intensive care and clinical nurses on their psychological resilience levels. In this descriptive cross-sectional study, 252 intensive care and ward nurses met the study sample. "Personal Information Form," "Emotional Intelligence Scale," and "Adult Resilience Measure" were used as data collection tools in the research. The nurses' "total emotional intelligence" average was found to be high at 139.060±24.129 (min=33 and max=180). The "psychological resilience total" score average was low at 86.774±10.648 (min=55 and max=105). It has been found that emotional intelligence affects psychological resilience in nurses. The psychological resilience of nurses working in intensive care units was lower than that of clinical nurses. Healthcare organizations need to increase the well-being of nurses in complex working environments with intervention programs emphasizing emotional intelligence and psychological resilience. The results of this study are important to encourage the improvement of nurses' well-being.

Abstract

Childhood traumas include physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical neglect, and emotional neglect. The impact of childhood traumas on psychological resilience is emphasized. This study aims to examine the effects of childhood traumas on the psychological resilience of individuals. The study was conducted as a descriptive and quantitative study. The study was conducted online between 08.11.2021 and 10.20.2021 with the utilization of the snowball sampling method (322 women, 92 men, total: 414 participants) and with the participants over the age of 18 who agreed to participate in the study. The Personal Information Form, Adult Resilience Measure (ARM), and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-33 (CTQ-33) were used as data collection tools. It was determined that the mean score of the participants' Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-33 was 48.45±11.68, and its subscales' mean scores were 8.24±3.86 for emotional abuse, 6.15±2.31 for physical abuse, 7.97±2.56 for physical neglect, 9.29±2.39 for emotional neglect, 6.01±2.71 for sexual abuse, and 10.77±3.90 for overprotection-overcontrol. Additionally, the mean score of denial was determined to be 0.40±0.66. It was determined that the mean score of the Adult Resilience Measure was 81.73±13.59. In general, we can say that the negative experiences experienced by children negatively affect their future lives in the long term.

Abstract

Critical patients with ICU room treatment have high morbidity and mortality. Prolonged use of mechanical ventilation can result in a reduction in the strength of the respiratory muscles. The purpose of this review article is to explain the effectiveness of the implementation of IMT in Intensive Care Unit patients. The research design used the PRISMA guideline with a literature search strategy on the Scopus database (n=10), ProQuest (n=1), Web of Science (n=913), PubMed (n=291), and Google Scholar (n=800), with the keyword "Inspiratory Muscle Training OR IMT AND Intensive Care Unit OR ICU AND Breathing AND Ventilation". The selected articles used the Randomized Control Trial and Quasi-Experimental, Case, and Observational Cohort Study research designs. The year the source of the literature was taken is 2020-2024. The effectiveness of Inspiratory Muscle Training also depends on several factors, including the patient's specific health condition, the type of disease or injury, and the implementation and supervision of the exercise program. One of the benefits of IMT is increased respiratory muscle strength, reduced duration of mechanical ventilation, reduced risk of respiratory complications, and improved quality of life. Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) has shown effectiveness in various clinical contexts, including the ICU.

Abstract

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a primary worldwide health concern, partly due to poor vaccine uptake among healthcare workers who have increased chances of occupational exposure. Nigeria has one of the highest burdens of HBV infection, with an estimated 15% prevalence. Hence, the study objective assessed the determinant and uptake of the Hepatitis B vaccine among Health Care Workers (HCWs) in a Government-owned Teaching Hospital in Ogun State, Nigeria. The study utilized a descriptive cross-sectional design. Samples were determined using Kish Leslie’s formula. Convenience sampling was used to select 124 healthcare workers. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire with a reliability of 0.723. Data analysis was done using descriptive, and Pearson Chi-Square and results were presented in tables depicting frequencies and percentages. Findings revealed that 62.9% of HCWs had been vaccinated at least once. However, only 10.5% of respondents were fully vaccinated, indicating a notable gap in the HBV vaccination among the different medical cadres. Factors influencing the uptake rate include vaccine availability (98.4%), distance to vaccination center 74.2%), needle prick (85.5%), HCWs attitude (81.5%), lack of awareness (85.5%), and lack of motivation (87.1%). There was a significant relationship between categories of healthcare workers and uptake of the HBV vaccine (p=0.000). In conclusion, the study calls for concerted efforts from healthcare institutions and policymakers to enforce full vaccination coverage among HCWs to mitigate the burden of Hepatitis B infection in healthcare settings, thus safeguarding the health of both HCWs and the broader community.

Abstract

The nursing profession is one of the most important in providing health care; therefore, understanding the attitudes of undergraduate nursing students is imperative. This understanding aids in recruiting, teaching, and mentoring future nurses in the best ways possible. The primary aim of this research was to assess the perception of undergraduate nursing students regarding the nursing profession at Mosul University. A qualitative phenomenological design was done between December 12, 2023, and February 25, 2024. The study employed a qualitative research design in which a proportional purposive sampling procedure, group and individual interviews, and thematic analysis were used in data collection and analysis. In choosing participants for the study, a purposive sampling technique was used in-house, emphasizing undergraduate nursing students at Mosul University. Five open-ended questions were posed to the twenty-five participants, and the questions were aimed at unraveling the participants' views, expectations, and opinions about the nursing profession. The interviews were tape-recorded, and the responses obtained were transcribed verbatim, and themed analysis was conducted. From the study, it can be deduced that students have a favorable attitude towards the nursing profession. Some view nursing as a fulfilling and meaningful employment driven by their desire to help people in need. Nevertheless, some issues are connected with the challenges and tasks inherent in the profession. Therefore, there are other social and cultural factors that influence nursing students' attitudes, some of which include societal beliefs about the profession or stereotypes. Nursing as a profession is usually accompanied by the aim of caring for and improving the quality of life of other people. It consists of patience, taking the side of the patient, and the need to support this patient in enhancing their health. Emphasis is placed on interpersonal communication, interpersonal relations, teamwork, principles of justice and equity, and the overall well-being of each client. Nursing is a relatively safe and provided profession because of the continually increasing need for nurses, but the job is not easy, and people need help in managing the load and combating burnout.

Abstract

Fatigue is a common symptom experienced by chronic kidney failure patients undergoing hemodialysis, which significantly affects their quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the effect of five-finger hypnosis therapy on reducing fatigue in chronic kidney failure patients in the hemodialysis room of Bhayangkara Lumajang Hospital. The research design used was pre-experiment with pre-and post-test approaches. The population in this study were chronic kidney failure patients undergoing regular hemodialysis, with a total of 40 patients. The sample consisted of 36 respondents selected through the purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) questionnaire to measure fatigue levels and the five-finger hypnosis module for intervention techniques. Data were analyzed bivariate using the paired sample t-test. The results showed that the average value of the fatigue level before the five-finger hypnosis intervention was 31.83, with a standard deviation of 4.98. After the intervention, the respondents' average fatigue level was 25.27, with a standard deviation of 4.53. Data analysis using the Paired Sample T-Test showed a significant effect between five-finger hypnosis therapy on reducing fatigue levels with a value of ρ = 0.000 (ρ <0.05). Five-finger hypnosis therapy can be integrated as part of a non-pharmacological care program to improve the quality of life of patients in hemodialysis units.
