Objective: To evaluate nurses' understanding of electronic nursing documentation. Methodology: This descriptive study used non probability purposive sampling and included 40 nurses selected during the period of November 20th 2021 to November 1st 2022. The validity of the questionnaire was assessed to a panel of experts in the nursing field. Results: Majority of the nurses' knowledge regarding electronic nursing documentation in the pre-test was poor, whereas there were some questions that were fair. Conclusions: Nurses' level of knowledge was inadequate and there was no significant differences regarding age, gender educational level, years of employment and training courses.

Objective: To establish a correlation between the level of involvement nursing students have during clinical practice and their ability to demonstrate cultural competency. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Applied Nursing Undergraduate Study Program, Indonesia and andom sampling was used to enroll 250 participants. A self-reporting questionnaire was administered to gather data, which were analyzed using SPSS. Results: The mean score of student engagement was 73.68 (SD:6.769) and cultural competence was significant 55.76 (SD:4.182). Student engagement showed a high association with the cultural competence (p<0.001). Conclusion: This study highlighted that nursing student highly engage in skill, emotional, participation and performance. The development of cultural competence in awareness, knowledge, skill, and sensitivity was at medium level. It is essential for nursing instructors to comprehend inclusion of students.

Objective: To assess visual outcomes and safety of implantable phakic copolymer lenses (IPCLs)V2 model in patients with moderate to high myopia. Methodology: This prospective interventional cross-sectional study involving 40 eyes of 27 patients who had IPCL implantation for correction of myopic and myopic-astigmatism was carried out at Dar Al-salam private eye hospital, Baghdad from 1st May 2017 to 1st May 2020. Pre-operative and post-operative parameters included visual acuity by logMAR system, refraction, detailed examination by slit lamp bio microscopy, dilated fundus examination, intraocular pressure measurement, anterior chamber depth measurement by a pentacam in addition to white-to-white diameter measurement preoperatively. All had IPCL implantation and follow-up period was 12 months. Results: We found that 26 (96.3%) patients are happy to extremely satisfied with the procedure. BCVA was 0.275 logMAR preoperatively. Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) in the follow-up period was 0.035, which was considerably better than preoperative (BCVA). All patients had the same or improved VA post-operatively and remained stable during follow-up. The mean residual was -0.06 D. (min-1.37-max0.37). Conclusion: IPCL V2 used for correction of high ametropia resulted in a highly significant improvement in postoperative uncorrected visual acuity with minimal controllable complications and excellent patient’s satisfaction.
目的:评价植入式共聚物晶体(IPCLs)V2模型在中高近视患者中的视力效果和安全性。方法:本前瞻性介入横断面研究于2017年5月1日至2020年5月1日在巴格达Dar Al-salam私立眼科医院进行，涉及27例40只眼的IPCL植入术矫正近视和近视散光。术前和术后参数包括logMAR视力、屈光、裂隙灯生物显微镜详细检查、眼底扩张检查、眼压测量、五锥镜前房深度测量以及术前白到白直径测量。均行IPCL植入术，随访12个月。结果:26例(96.3%)患者满意或非常满意。术前BCVA为0.275 logMAR。随访期间未矫正视力(UCVA)为0.035，明显优于术前(BCVA)。所有患者术后VA相同或改善，随访期间保持稳定。平均残差为-0.06 d (min-1.37-max0.37)。结论:IPCL V2用于高度屈光不正矫正，术后未矫正视力明显改善，可控并发症少，患者满意度高。

Objective: To assess if work environment had an impact on the performance of nurses and to determine the relationship between the work environment and their performance. Methodology: This descriptive analytical study was in the hospitals of the city of Nasiriyah, Iraq from May 15, 2022 to November 1, 2022. The non-probability (purposive) sample was used and 410 nurses working in the city center hospitals were included in the study. We used a questionnaire to collect data which was analyzed with SPSS 21. Results: The association between work environment hazards and nurse performance (continuation 1) showed a strong positive relationship (when the nurse was satisfied with her environment, there was an increase in her performance). Conclusion: There are factors in the nursing work such as the risks of the physical environment, psychosocial environment, chemical and biological environment that have a significant positive or negative effect on the performance of their work.

Objective: To investigate Hysterosalpingo Contrast Sonography (HyCoSy) as a safe, effective, easy, and cheaper approach to measure tubal patency than hysterosalpingography (HSG) and to correlate better ovarian function, endometrial and ovarian blood flow, and conception rates in infertile women. Methodology: This cross-sectional study included 40 infertile women between 22 and 42 years age; 20 of them had HSG on day 6 or 7 of cycle and 20 HyCoSy with normal saline and 100 mg hydrocortisone. All underwent the protocol of 75 iu gonal F sc on days 2 and 3, with clomiphene 50 mg twice daily from days 2 to 7 or letrizole 2.5 twice daily from days 3 to 8 (around day 14). Evaluated criteria: resistance index (RI) and perfusion index (PI) of ovarian vessels by Doppler ultrasound, number and size of follicles for both groups, endometrial thickness, endometrial pattern, zones of blood flow to endometrium. Then HCG to promote ovulation and progesterone to support luteal phase. Results: HSG group mean age was 29.7 6 HYCOSY group age was 29 6 years. 82.1% of HSG females and 90.1% of HyCoSy females had 2nd infertility. Females undergoing HSG had 42.9% I zone and 65.6% IV zone. Females undergoing HSG and HyCoSy had 1 follicle, respectively. 68.8% of HyCoSy females were pregnant. HSG and HyCoSy had different RI, thickness. HyCoSy was thicker and had less RI than HSG. HSG and HyCoSy had similar numbers and sizes of follicles. Conclusion: HyCoSy was a safe, effective, easy, and cheaper way to evaluate tubal patency than HSG, less RI and increase endometrium thickness.

Objective: To investigate the modalities of H. pylori diagnosis and management in Jordan and to elaborate on the feasibility of following international guidelines in diagnosing and managing H. pylori in children in our region. Methodology: This is a case series of children with upper gastrointestinal symptoms. Gastric and duodenal biopsies were collected when pre-endoscopic or intra-endoscopic findings suggested H-Pylori gastric infection. Results: The study included 116 children and adolescents, 52 (45%) were male and 64 (55.2%) females. Factors associated with failure of first eradication therapy; abdominal pain as a presenting symptom was significantly associated with the need for a second course of eradication. (p=0.037). Also, weight loss was significantly associated with the need for a second eradication therapy (p=0.028). Conclusion: Presenting symptoms and consequences of H pylori acquisition can be a serious pathological issue. Therefore, diagnostics and treatment of the infection, as well as proper documentation of the eradication success, can be beneficial.

Objective: To determine the effect of an intervention program on nurses’ practice about cataract. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study was carried out at Ibn AL-Haitham Teaching Eye Hospital, from October 15, 2022 to July 20, 2023. A purposive (non-probability) sample of 40 nurses working in cataract ward were selected. The sample was divided into two groups; 20 nurses in control group and 20 in the study group. A pretest and posttest were used after educational intervention. Results: There was highly significant difference between the nurses’ practice in pre and posttest. There was association between nurse's practice related to age, gender, level of education and years of service and years of experience in eye wards. Conclusions: Nurses benefited from the implementation of the instructional program and their practices or knowledge was effectively enhanced.
