Introduction: COVID-19 may put pregnant women at greater risk of serious conditions and poor outcomes for new-borns. Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the effect of an educational intervention based on health beliefs model adoption on pregnant women's knowledge and preventive health behaviours in relation to COVID-19. Subjects & Method: A quasi-experimental design was performed on 100 pregnant women in the antenatal clinic of Zagazig University Hospital using purposive sampling. Data were collected using three tools: a structured interview questionnaire, the health beliefs model and preventive health behaviours of pregnant women in relation to COVID-19. Results : Mean and standard division of knowledge and preventive behaviours about covid-19 were greatly improved from 21.1±5.67 and 26.88±2.49 before applying the Health Belief Model to 27.84±1.67 and 31.92±3.61 after applying the health belief model. Conclusion : The study concluded that an educational intervention based on the adoption of the health belief model enhanced pregnant women's knowledge and preventive health behaviors in relation to COVID-19. Recommendations : The study suggests that health education interventions should specifically target pregnant women at different antenatal clinics at Zagazig city.

Introduction: Peripheral intravenous cannulation is one of the most prevalent invasive procedures used to treat diseases and it is often painful and distressing for the patients. In patients undergoing IV cannulation the valsalva maneuver is helpful in minimizing pain and anxiety Aim : Evaluate the effectiveness of valsalva maneuver on procedural pain and anxiety for patients undergoing peripheral venous cannulation. Methods : A quasi-experimental research design was utilized to conduct this study on 100 patients undergoing peripheral intravenous cannulation at the Medical Research Institute in Alexandria Hospital. Tools : Three tools were used in this study to collect data. Tool I: Structured Interview sheet, Tool II: Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS): and Tool III Visual Analogue scale for anxiety (VAS-A) Results: There was a statistically significant reduction in pain severity and anxiety level total mean scores in the study group after application of valsalva maneuver than the control group. Also, there was a significant association between pain level and a total mean score of anxiety. Conclusion : Valsalva Maneuver can be applied during peripheral intravenous cannulation as an effective nursing intervention in decreasing pain and anxiety Recommendations: Valsalva Maneuver should be incorporated in nursing intervention protocols during performing the peripheral intravenous cannulation for reducing pain and anxiety levels.

Introduction: Thyroid diseases are one of the most common health problems all over the world. Thyroidectomy is a common surgical procedure resulting in significant neck pain and disability postoperatively. After thyroidectomy, patients often experience discomfort such as neck pain, shoulder stiffness, shoulder movement difficulty, choking, or a pressing sensation. Head-neck stretching exercises provide neuromuscular coordination and flexibility in patients by reducing pain and muscle weakness. Aim: to evaluate the effect of implementing head-neck stretching exercises after thyroidectomy on reducing the postoperative neck pain level and disability. Design: A quasi-experimental research design was utilized. Setting: This study was conducted at the head and neck surgery unit of the Alexandria Main University Hospital, Alexandria, Egypt. Subjects: The subjects comprised 60 patients undergoing thyroidectomy. They were divided into two groups at random and equally: a study group that received neck stretching exercise training in addition to routine hospital care and a control group that received routine hospital care. Three tools were used; Tool I: Patients' socio-demographic and clinical data structured interview schedule. Tool II: Neck pain assessment using the Indiana polyclinic combined pain scale (IPCPS). Tool III: Neck Disability Index Questionnaire (NDI). Results: There was a highly statistically significant difference between both groups regarding neck pain and disability one week and four weeks post thyroidectomy. Conclusion: Implementing head and neck stretching exercises illustrate a positive result and significant differences among both groups regarding the pain and disability mean scores. Recommendations : Neck stretching exercises should become an integral part of the care provided by nurses in their care and follow-up protocols post thyroidectomy.

: Introduction: The coronavirus pandemic has impacted human life and medical education. With the spread of COVID-19 worldwide, many countries declared e-learning education as an alternative method to ensure students continue learning. Being aware of students learning styles can help them find the appropriate ways to learn and benefit from these styles in their future professional journeys. Objective: The study aimed to assess nursing students' satisfaction with e-learning concerning their learning style during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Method: A cross-sectional descriptive design was adopted. The study was conducted at Modern University for Technology and Information, Faculty of Nursing, Egypt. The sample size was 279 students. A self-administered questionnaire was used, including; demographic data, E-learning student satisfaction, and VARK Standard Learning Style Questionnaire version 8.01. Results: It revealed that 64.2% of them were male, 66.3% of their age group was 22≤ 27 y ears old, and 85.7% used smartphones as preferred devices for e-learning. There was a significant association between students' learning styles and their level of satisfaction at p < 0.05. There was a highly statistically significant association between the studied students' age and learning styles, where χ 2 = 453.9 at p <0.001. Also, there was a statistically significant association between students' registered level and preferred learning styles, where χ 2 = 85.3 at p <0.05. Conclusion: most of the participated students were satisfied with e-learning classes and had a unimodal learning style preference, followed by those who had multimodal learning styles. In addition, more than one-third of them prefer the unimodal and multimodal style in the responses to the VARK learning inventory, including Aural, read/write, and kinesthetic. Recommendations: the research finding helps the nursing educators to utilize the appropriate teaching methods and strategies appropriate teaching methods to enhance students' learning efficiency, satisfaction, and achievement according to their learning style. Considering students' learning styles during the e-learning classes, including watching videos, will enhance the students' learning achievements. Teaching materials applied during e-learning should include creative activities to promote students' motivation, perception, satisfaction, and accomplishments.
新冠肺炎疫情给人类生活和医学教育带来了冲击。随着新冠肺炎疫情在全球蔓延，许多国家宣布将电子学习教育作为确保学生继续学习的另一种方法。了解学生的学习风格可以帮助他们找到合适的学习方式，并在未来的职业生涯中从中受益。目的:探讨新型冠状病毒病疫情期间护生对电子学习方式的满意度。方法:采用横断面描述性设计。这项研究是在埃及现代科技与信息大学护理学院进行的。样本量为279名学生。使用了一份自我管理的问卷，包括;人口统计数据、E-learning学生满意度和VARK标准学习风格问卷8.01版。结果:64.2%的受访学生为男性，66.3%的受访学生年龄在22岁≤27岁，85.7%的受访学生将智能手机作为在线学习的首选设备。学生的学习风格与满意度有显著相关(p < 0.05)。被研究学生的年龄和学习方式之间有高度统计学意义的关联，χ 2 = 453.9, p <0.001。此外，学生的注册水平与首选学习方式之间存在统计学意义上的关联，χ 2 = 85.3, p <0.05。结论:参与调查的学生对网络学习课程满意程度最高，学习方式偏好单模态，其次是多模态。此外，超过三分之一的学生在对VARK学习量表的反应中更喜欢单模态和多模态风格，包括听觉、读写和动觉。建议:本研究结果有助于护理教育工作者根据学生的学习风格，采用适当的教学方法和策略，提高学生的学习效率、满意度和成绩。在网络学习课程中考虑学生的学习风格，包括观看视频，将提高学生的学习成绩。在网络学习中使用的教材应包括创造性活动，以促进学生的动机、感知、满意度和成就。
