Abstract

Introduction: Stress experienced by the baby will affect the body’s function by increasing the body’s metabolism. Nesting is used to reduce stress in premature babies. Nesting can be done in a supine or prone position. Few studies have examined the effects of body position on body weight and oxygen saturation. The objective of the study was to determine the difference in oxygen saturation and weight change on the use of nesting in the prone and supine positions in premature babies.Methods: The research used a quasi-experimental design. The sample consisted of 30 premature babies, which was obtained using a consecutive sample technique. The independent variables were nesting positioning (supine and prone), and the dependent variables were oxygen saturation and body weight. The data of oxygen saturation and the baby’s weight were collected using pulse oximetry; the baby’s weight scale used observation sheets. The data was analysed using the t-test, Wilcoxon Sign Ranks Test, and Mann Whitney U Test.Results: The results showed that there was a difference in oxygen saturation before and after the use of nesting in the supine (p=0.001) and prone position (p=0.000). There was a weight difference before and after the use of nesting in both supine (p=0.000) and prone position (p=0.000). There was no difference in oxygen saturation value and infant weight, before or after, between the supine position and the prone position (p=0.18; p=0.9).Conclusion: The use of nesting in both positions (supine or prone) can increase oxygen saturation and infant weight. Researchers recommend the use of nesting with supine or prone positions routinely in premature babies.

Abstract

Introduction: Breast self-examination (BSE) is the most sensitive and cost-effective method to diagnose breast cancer at an early stage in healthcare resources’ limited setting. However, the practice of BSE is low in Myanmar. Although various international studies were conducted to clarify the influencing factors in irregular BSE practice, there is a range of different factors and the answer is not yet clear. Hence, this study is aimed to explore the influencing factors on the practice of breast self-examination among Myanmar women.Methods: A qualitative exploratory-descriptive study was conducted on eight women through in-depth semi-structured interviews between February 2020 and March 2020. The samples were women who lived in the rural area of Myanmar and purposive sampling technique was used. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi’s method, which consisted of seven stages.Results: Four themes emerged as the results of the in-depth interview, namely knowledge of breast cancer, knowledge regarding breast self-examination, barriers to performing regular BSE and ways to improve BSE practice.Conclusion: This study showed that the women were inadequate in knowledge and practice regarding BSE and breast cancer. Some barriers of BSE practice are rooted in the inadequate skill of BSE and the women’s attitude.  Greater understanding about breast cancer and improving the confidence of women in BSE will lead to better prognosis. Hence, healthcare authorities and providers should encourage a formal health education program and the results from this study hope to be useful in future rural health education programs of BSE practice.

Abstract

Introduction: Errors when filling in or interpreting the results of the EWS assessment causes delays and inaccuracies for the nurses when providing a clinical response. The aim of this study was to explain the relationship between the nurse’s knowledge and skill with the speed and accuracy of the nurse when assessing via EWS.Methods: This study used a correlation design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 104 nurses working in the inpatient ward of internal medicine according to the inclusion criteria. The sample was obtained through purposive sampling. The independent variable was the nurses’ knowledge and skill while the dependent variable was the nurse’s speed and accuracy when assessing using the EWS. The instruments used were questionnaires and observation sheets. The data was analyzed using Spearman Rho.Results: The results of the study showed that there was a very strong correlation between the knowledge-accuracy of the nurses when assessing using the EWS (r = 0.805; p = 0.000) and the nurse's skill-accuracy when assessing using the EWS (r = 0.823; p = 0.000). There was a strong correlation between the knowledge-speed of nurses assessing using the EWS (r = 0.269; p = 0.006) and the nurse's skill and speed when assessing using the EWS (r = 0.262; p = 0.007).Conclusion: The nurse’s knowledge and skill has a stronger relationship with accuracy when assessing using the EWS when compared to the nurses' speed.

Abstract

Introduction: Supportive therapy is considered an important element in the treatment of cancer patients which is often associated with efforts to overcome life-threatening problems. However, the application of this intervention in clinical practice has not yet been fully carried out. This systematic review summarizes the evidence regarding the effect of supportive therapy in improving the quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients.Methods: The review was performed according to PRISMA guidelines. We searched four electronic databases to identify studies comparing patients who received specific protocol interventions with the control group. The keywords used are "Supportive Therapy" AND "Palliative Supportive Care" AND "Quality of Life" OR "Health Quality" OR "Health-Related Quality of Life".Results: In the study, the average quality of life assessment was carried out at 12 weeks and six months after the intervention. Seven7 of the 15 studies used QLQ-C30 to measure the quality of life of patients with cancer, which was managed to validate and assess the quality of life in patients with cancer, whereas of the 15 studies evaluating results reported, patients reported differences in favor of the intervention group.Conclusion: The overall methodology quality is good. Several comparative studies have evaluated the impact of supportive therapy on the quality of life of cancer patients. The quality of this study is good and the results are acceptable in improving the quality of life of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment, and palliative care.

Abstract

Introduction: An understanding of supportive care needs is essential to achieve good quality care for women with breast cancer. This concept defines the needs of cancer patients in relation to the physical, emotional, psychological, social, informational and spiritual domains since the start of their journey through diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, palliative care and the grief process.Methods: This study was conducted to explore the unmet supportive care needs of women with breast cancer. Databases were searched in the journals using pre-determined keywords such as ‘supportive care needs’, ‘breast cancer’ and ‘woman’. The databases used were Scopus, Pro Quest, Science Direct and EBSCO. The search was limited to journals published in the period 2014-2020. Out of the 189 nursing journals initially found, 16 journals were selected that met all of the eligibility criteria. Eight studies used a cross-sectional design.Results: Most of the breast cancer patients were in the post-diagnosis phase and had survived. More than 50% of the journals reported that the needs of breast cancer women were going unmet. The predictors of a higher level of need among the breast cancer patients are age, social support and information. The most prevalent unmet needs among the women with breast cancer were found to be in the health system and related to information. Conclusion: Future research should focus on improving the education and psychological support programs available to provide for the unmet supportive care needs of patients newly-diagnosed with breast cancer. This can provide high quality care for them.

Abstract

Introduction: One form of intervention is the rehabilitation of drug users. This takes time, money and effort. It takes a family support group to ensure that the drug users are motivated. The aim of this research was to determine the influence of family support on the motivation of the drug users undergoing rehabilitation at Syifa Medica Clinic in Kediri.Methods: This study used a correlation analytical design and a cross-sectional approach. The population of this research consisted of all of the drug users undergoing the rehabilitation process with the 25 samples taken using the accidental sampling technique. The independent variables of family support and motivation are needed to undergo rehabilitation process. These variables were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the Spearman Rank test.Results: The results of this study show that most of the respondents have positive support, totaling 15 respondents (60%). Nearly half had low motivation, totaling 12 respondents (40%). No family support relationships were found to pair with the motivation to undergo rehabilitation among the drug users (Spearman, p = 0,000 < 0,05: Ho is rejected). The level of relations included ‘quite strong’ and ‘positive’ (+0,732).Conclusion: Family support allows the drug users to obtain emotional closeness, causing a sense of security and a high motivation to undergo rehabilitation.

Abstract

Introduction: Prehospital time interval was one of important indicators of EMS performance. It consisting of total prehospital time (TPT), response time (RT), on-scene time (OST) and transport time (TT) in the world is very diverse. Many factors were able to affect the duration of prehospital time. The purpose of this systematic review was to identify internal and external EMS factors that affect prehospital time which was useful as a predictor of the prehospital time interval variety.Methods: This study was conducted with a systematic method by reviewing the literature obtained from four electronic databases namely ProQuest, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Schoolar. Seven keywords were used to get some of relevance literatures. Using PRISMA flow diagram, the literatures were screened by three inclusion criteria: original research article, published in the 2007-2018 timeframe, discusses EMS prehospital time interval and the factors that influence it.Results: Seventy-five literature were obtained, of which 14 articles met the requirements for analysis. Factors influencing prehospital time variations can be classified as two. First, internal factors which include: facilities and infrastructure, human resources, and service protocols. Second, external factors which include: natural and non-natural environment, and the patient's clinical condition.Conclusion: Investigation at prehospital time intervals and influential factors is useful in developing evidence-informed in assessing EMS performance and correcting the obstacles found. This review also identifies the gaps in the existing literature to inform future research efforts.
