The aim of the present study was to determine the nursing student's satisfaction with two methods of CBL and lecture-based learning. Methods This descriptive observational study was conducted in 2019 in School of Nursing and Midwifery in Ilam. All 128 undergraduate nursing students in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th semesters of nursing were enrolled in the study to compare students' satisfaction with CBL and lecture-based learning. Data collection tools included a demographic information questionnaire and a researcher-made questionnaire consisting of 20 questions based on the Likert scale. Data analysis was performed using SPSS Statistics 22. Results More than two thirds of the students (81.3%) found the CBL method was better than lectures. 60% of male students and 62% of female students stated that the CBL method increased their self-confid...

Most patients with this diagnosis also suffer from chest trauma. Therapeutic goals in patients with chest trauma often include airways maintenance, oxygen therapy, and pain and anxiety management. Aim: To determine the effect of respiratory exercises on pain and anxiety in patients with chest trauma referred to Imam Khomeini Hospital of Ilam, Iran in 2019. Methods: This was an educational-interventional study on patients with chest trauma. Data was collected using a questionnaire addressing patients’ demographic characteristics, the VAS scale for pain measurement, and the Spielberger Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y). Education consisted of 3 phases including face to face training, as well as practical trainings with and without the presence of a nurse. Data was analyzed by SPSS 20 software. Results: Males and females constituted 46 (67.6) and 22 (32.4) patients, respectively. Mean pain scores were 3.49 before and 2.33 after educations which showed statistically significant reduction. Anxiety scores were 54.5 and 47.59 before and after training, respectively showing a statistically significant difference. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that training respiratory exercises significantly reduced pain and anxiety in chest trauma patients. © 2020 Lahore Medical And Dental College.

Therefore, this study aimed to provide a comprehensive assessment of anemia and PPD. Methods: This review study was conducted according to the MOOSE protocol and results have been reported according to the PRISMA guideline. We searched epidemiologic studies published until January 2018 in nine English databases including Scopus, PubMed/Medline, Science Direct, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EBSCO and Google Scholar using English MeSH keywords. The heterogeneity of the studies was assessed using the Cochran's Q test and I2 index. Data were analyzed using a random effects model and comprehensive meta-analysis (CMA) software version 2. Results: In the 10 studies, the association between postpartum anemia and PPD was significant (heterogeneity test: P<0.001, I2=74.62%), and RR=1.887 (95%CI: 1.255-2.838, P=0.002). In 8 studies, anemia during pregnancy significantly increased the risk of postpartum depression (heterogeneity test: P=0.116, I2=36.422%), RR=1.240 (1.001-1.536, P=0.048). The subgroup analysis of postpartum anemia and PPD was not significant for the variables of quality of studies, study design, and the period of evaluating depression and anemia. The subgroup analysis of anemia during pregnancy and PPD was not significant for the period of evaluating depression. Publication bias did not affect the results of the studies. Conclusion: Meta-analysis results showed anemia during pregnancy and after pregnancy that significantly increased the risk of postpartum depression. Therefore, prevention, identification and treatment of anemia in pregnant women seem necessary.

The prevalence of frailty is increasing as the population ages. Like many developing countries, Vietnam has a rapidly ageing population. However, there have been no studies about frailty in older people in Vietnam. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of frailty and its associated factors in older hospitalised patients at the National Geriatric Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam. Prospective observational study in inpatients aged ≥60 years at the National Geriatric Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam from 4/2015 to 10/2015. Frailty was assessed using the Reported Edmonton Frail Scale (REFS) and Fried frailty phenotype. A total of 461 patients were recruited (56.8% female, mean age 76.2 ± 8.9 years). The prevalence of frailty was 31.9% according to the REFS. Using the Fried frailty criteria, the percentages of non-frail, pre-frail and frail participants were 24.5, 40.1 and 35.4%, respectively. Factors associated with frailty defined...

The birth of a premature baby needing to be hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) endangers the initial mother-baby relationship, affecting mother-baby attachment. Therefore, it seems necessary to provide mothers of premature babies with appropriate nursing support. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effects of spiritual self-care training on the mother-baby attachment of mothers giving birth to premature babies hospitalized in the NICU. Methods. This was a semi-experimental study with pre-test/post-test design conducted on 60 mothers with babies admitted to the NICU of Taleghani Hospital of Ilam (30 participants in each of the intervention and control groups).Two questionnaires were used for data collection, including a demographic information questionnaire and the Maternal Postnatal Attachment Scale (MPAS). Five self-care training sessions (45 minutes each) were held for mothers of the intervention group according to a self-care booklet...

Twenty-four older adults participated in this study. All participants underwent static and dynamic balance tests. In the Experimental group, anode electrode was positioned at the O point in the cerebellum and cathode electrode was positioned on the left eye socket (FP1). In the control group, the anode and cathode electrodes were positioned at O and FP1 points, respectively, but the current stimulation was stopped after 30 s. Then, the posttest was performed. Data analysis was done using MANCOVA. There was a significant difference between the Experimental and control groups in static balance ( p = .12) and dynamic balance ( p = .18) and the performance was better in the experimental group. It can be concluded that tDCS can improve static and dynamic balance in inactive older adults.
