Abstract: 

Introduction: One of the major needs of patients is receiving clear and sufficient information and the first step for nurses in undertaking this task is establishing an educational relationship with patients. Improving communication with patients causes empowerment in obtaining information and identifying patient’s problems by using engagement and active listening, and as a result, identifying the problems more precisely. This study aimed to examine the barriers to educating and establishing relationship with patients from the point of view of nurses in the hospitals of Jiroft city in 2015.Methods:: In this descriptive study, 200 employed nurses were selected from the hospitals of Jiroft city by census in 2015. Data were collected using the questionnaires of barriers to educating (27 items) and establishing communication (30 items). The questionnaires' validity was confirmed by content validity and their reliability was calculated by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Then, the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (abundance distribution, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient) by SPSS software version 16.Results: The results showed that job features, with the mean and standard deviation of 3.896 ± 0.628, was identified as the most important factor in the communication barriers with patients. Also, from the aspect of educational barriers, environmental factors with the mean of 4.36 ± 0.543 were identified as the most important factors. Although by increasing educational barriers the barriers of relationship with patients were increased, no significant relationship was found between the two groups of educational barriers and communication barriers.Conclusions: It seems that job features are one of the most important environmental barriers and it is one of the major challenges in establishing educational relationship. Therefore, the clinical managers and planners can facilitate the necessary conditions for patient education by increasing the participation of nurses, make an effort to attract more communication with nurses and facilitate the required conditions for educating the patients.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Health personnel’s lack of knowledge and skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an important factor in the undesirable outcomes of cardiac arrest. Team-based learning (TBL) is a new teaching strategy, which has attracted the attention of medical education communities. The present study aimed to compare the effects of CPR training through modified team-based learning (MTBL) and traditional method on the nursing students’ knowledge and skills.Methods: In this study, 50 junior nursing students were selected from Hazrat Fatemeh College of Nursing and Midwifery in Shiraz city using the random cluster sampling method during 2012-2013.Then, the students were divided into control and experimental groups. In the experimental group, CPR was trained using MTBL, while it was taught to the control group through the traditional method. Data were collected using the knowledge assessment questionnaire and CPR skills assessment checklist. Then, they were entered into the SPSS statistical software and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.Results: The results of variance analysis with repeated measurements showed a significant difference between MTLB and traditional groups on CPR knowledge and skills (P<0.0001).According to the repeated test effect and interaction effect, there was a higher significant change in both variables of the TBL group compared to the traditional group. The results of the LSD post hoc test to study mean difference of CPR knowledge and skills in the two groups in three times showed no significant difference between the MTLB group’s retention scores and post-test scores. However, there was a significant decrease in traditional groups’ CPR knowledge and skills (P<0.01).Conclusions: It seems that TBL, as an appropriate method for effective learning, is suitable for medical students.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Due to the sensitivity of the job, nurses are facing a lot of stress. Job’s stresses could lead to increased depression and decreased quality of life. This study aimed to determine the effect of the group schema therapy on depression symptoms and quality of life among nurses.Methods: In this semi-experimental study with a pre-test/post-test design, \ 40 female nurses were selected from all hospitals of Varamin City in 2016 and were randomly divided into two equal groups. The intervention group was trained by the group schema therapy method 10 sessions of 80 minutes each. Data were collected using Beck and Clarck’s depression questionnaires and World Health Organization’s quality of life questionnaire. Data were analyzed by the multivariate analysis of covariance method using the SPSS software version 19.Results: The results showed that before the intervention, the mean and standard deviation of depression and quality of life were 37.60±6.34 and 71.89±11.32 respectively, but after the intervention, the mean and standard deviation of them were 25.89±3.80 and 85.33±9.71 respectively. Also, there was a significant difference in depression symptoms and quality of life between intervention and control groups.Conclusions: According to the results of this study, group schema therapy can decrease depression and increase quality of life of nurses. Therefore, the use of group schema therapy is recommended in the training program of nurses.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is very important in certain public situations. Thus, every individual, especially youths, should be capable of performing CPR. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of CPR education by role playing and video type on the knowledge and skills of high school students.Methods: A semi-experimental study was conducted in Isfahan high schools by cluster sampling in 2014. Sixty-four students were randomly divided into video type or role playing groups (32 in each group). Data were collected using a demographic checklist and knowledge test on CPR. The students' skills were evaluated using the CPR procedure on medical moulage and data were analyzed using inferential statistical methods, independent t-test and Paired t-test by the SPSS software version 18.Results: The results demonstrated that mean scores for both knowledge and skills were increased in both video type and role playing groups after education (P<0.001). Furthermore, the scores of knowledge and skills were higher in video type than role playing group (P<0.001).Conclusions: This study shows that CPR education by video type or role playing can promote the student’s knowledge and skills; video education was superior to the role playing method. Considering the importance of CPR in certain public situations, it is recommended that education of cardiopulmonary resuscitation be engaged in formal high school academic courses.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Mentorship is a voluntary and beneficial professional relationship in which a person with more experience and knowledge (Mentor) support a person with less experience (mentee). This study aimed to investigate the effect of the mentorship on the level of stress in the nursing students.Methods: In this semi experimental study, 57 seventh and eighth semester nursing students of Shahrood Nursing and Midwifery School were selected through census. They were divided into two groups of control (28) and intervention (29) using the simple random method. In the experimental group, there was a nursing expert as the mentor for each 6-7 students. Stress of students was evaluated using a clinical environmental stress questionnaire before and after the training. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 18 and independent t-test, chi-square and covariance.Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age and educational level. Based on covariance analysis, before the intervention, the two groups had a significant difference in the mean score of stress (P=0.418). However, stress scores significantly decreased in the intervention group after the intervention (P=0.016).Conclusions: Mentorship training program can reduce stress of nursing students and is recommended to be used in field training instead of the usual methods in nursing faculties. This program can be used due to the shortage of nursing educators and in order to reduce the gap between theory and practice.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Several kinds of diabetes nursing care programs including a regular physical activity are suggested. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of 8 weeks of intense sprint interval training (SIT) and the combined strength-endurance training on fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) levels in women with type 2 diabetes.Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 42 overweight women aged 45-60 years with diabetes and fasting blood sugar more than 126 mg/dL were voluntarily selected and randomly assigned into three equal groups of SIT, combined exercise and control (n=14, each group). The participants were trained for 8 weeks. The SIT group performed 4-10 reps 30-second Wingate test on the Ergometer with maximum effort three times a week. The combination group performed aerobic exercise with 60% of maximum heart rate three times a week and they also performed resistance exercise at 70% of one repetition maximum two sessions per week. The control group did not have any regular activity. The FGF21 level was measured through blood samples 24 hours before and after the training period. Dependent t-test was used to determine within group differences and covariance was used to determine differences between groups.Results: The results showed that after 8 weeks of training, despite the increase in FGF21 in the SIT and combination groups, there was no significant difference between the pretest and posttest groups in SIT (P=0.158), combination (P=0.279) and control (P=0.834) groups. The comparison between the groups showed no significant difference between the exercise groups (P=0.819).Conclusions: Serum FGF21 levels showed no significant changes in any of the groups, but significant result of SIT in achieving this result can be caused by short duration, age and fitness level of the participants; however the need for longitudinal studies in this field remains essential.

Abstract: 

Introduction: The shortcomings of the traditional curriculum and its inability to meet the real needs of students led to pay more attention to newer models of curriculum by program planners. One of the approaches that can transform nursing education and improve its quality is the postmodern curriculum. The present study aimed to evaluate the curriculum pattern of postmodern in Iran' s nursing education.Methods: This study was a descriptive and applied research. It was presented with six elements: objectives, content, teaching and learning methods, learning environment, the role of learner and evaluation. The model was evaluated by 214 curriculum specialists using the researcher-made questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (frequency and percentage tables) and inferential statistics (chi-square and Fisher's exact test).Results: According to the results of this study, the model of postmodern curriculum was designed for the nursing education system. The findings showed that more than 82%of the curriculum specialists evaluated the model as a desirable one. There was no significant difference between curriculum specialists about the desirability of the proposed elements in this model (P>0.05).Conclusions: The results showed that the curriculum model was designed on the basis of the postmodern approach; evaluation is desirable according to the curriculum experts for its application in the nursing education system in Iran.

Abstract: 

Introduction: Anxiety disorder is the most common psychological issue has extremely increased among university students. This study conducted to examine the effects of problem-solving training on the nursing student's anxiety.Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest/posttest design. The study population was selected from all undergraduate nursing students of Islamic Azad University, Hamdedan Branch, during 2015-2016. From a total of the students, 83 cases were randomly selected as a representative of the entire population. The Cattell anxiety test (1973) was distributed among the participants to test the degree of their anxiety. Then, 36 participants who scored 40 on the Cattell anxiety scale were randomly assigned to control and experimental groups and their level of anxiety was measured under controlled conditions. Unlike the control group, the experimental group was instructed by the problem-solving skills throughout eight sessions. The Cattell anxiety scale was given to measure the level of anxiety for both experimental and control groups. Data were analyzed by an independent t-test and ANOVA.Results: The results showed a significant difference between experimental and control groups after receiving problem-solving training (P<0.001).Conclusions: The level of either overt or covert anxiety was significantly decreased among experimental groups when they received the treatment. Therefore, problem-solving training can be used for reducing anxiety among students.
