Performance evaluation is a continuous process in assessing the employee’s contribution to the organization. The aim of performance evaluation is to achieve an equitable capacity of the employee’s contribution to the workplace. In nursing, the evaluation performance encompasses cognitive skills; affective and psychomotor domains. The aim of this study was to evaluate the new nurse graduates' performance who had been trained within an environment of ‘everything is new to everyone’ in one of the teaching hospitals. A comparative descriptive study was conducted with 113 staff nurses as after 2 years of graduation. Work performance domains evaluated are; punctuality, physical appearance, attitude and commitment to work, service excellence, positive relationship, communication skills, and leadership. Results had shown 76.02% of the new nurse graduates’ performance was excellent as evaluated by the 1st evaluators. Similar results were obtained from the overall evaluation of the 2nd evaluators. However, in some aspect of the overall evaluations, there was an inconsistency that contradicts the evaluation of both evaluators. A system will run accordingly if it is well communicated and had mutual consensus between evaluators who regard performance evaluation is rather a continuous process even in a difficult environment when everything is new to everyone.

Background: Adolescent’s sexual abuse is any interaction between adolescents and an adult (or another adolescent) in which the adolescents is used for the sexual stimulation of the perpetrator or an observer. Sexual abuse can include both touching and non-touching behaviors. Abusers often do not use physical force, but may use play, deception, threats, or other forms of coercion to engage adolescents and maintain their silence. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess prevalence and associated factors of adolescents sexual abuse among adolescents in high school, Nekemte town, East Wollega Zone, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, 2017. Methods: School based cross sectional study was conducted in high school of Nekemte town, using systematic random sampling technique from March 1st to 15th, 2017. Data was collected from 377 adolescent students using structured, pre tested and self-administered questionnaire. After data collection, data was cleared, coded, checked and entered in to computer software SPSS version 20.0. Univariate, analysis was performed for frequency and percentage. Binary logistic regression analysis was done to identify factors associated with sexual abuse and these factors were taken in to multivariate analysis with 95% confidence interval. Result: Among study participants involved in the study 126 (33.4%) were sexually abused at least once in their life time and the remaining 251 (66.6%) were not sexually abused. Factors of sexual abuse associated significantly were grade attending, Fathers occupation and Mothers’ education and occupation positively associated with sexual abuse of adolescents while drinking alcohol and had sexual intercourse associated inversely. Conclusion and recommendation: The prevalence of sexual abuse is high and needs every one’s attention on its reduction. Awareness creation for families and communities on sexual abuse and education for adolescents on short and long impact of sexual abuse is recommended.

According to the facts of physics, if temperature increases, thermal expansion of an object is positive it will expand and with decrease of temperature, it will shrink. Pressure will increase due to an increase in temperature. On the contrary, during fever we can see blood vessels and skin are shrunk, pressure decreases, body shivers, sleep increases, motion decreases, inflammation increases, body pain increases, blood circulation decreases, dislike cold substances, etc. In fever the firing rate of warm sensitive neurons decreases and the firing rate of cold sensitive neurons increases. At the same time if we apply hotness from outside by thermal bag or if we drink hot water, our body acts according to the Facts of Physics- increase of temperature pressure will also increase, expands blood vessels and skin, body sweats, motion will increase, inflammation will decrease, body pain will decrease, blood circulation will increase, like cold substances, etc. During fever, why our body acts against the Facts of Physics? When disease increases, pressure and temperature will decrease. Blood circulation will decrease due to the decrease in pressure. If the essential temperature of the body is going out the essential temperature and pressure will further decrease. This will further endanger the life or action of organs. When disease increases, it is the sensible and discreet action of the brain that tends to act against facts of physics to sustain life or protect the organ. There is no way other than this for a sensible and discreet brain to protect the life or organ. We will get a clear answer if we find out the purpose of fever, sensible and discreet action of the brain. No medical books clarify this one during fever, if the temperature of fever is not a surplus temperature or if it is not supposed to be eliminated from the body, the shrinking of skin and blood vessels, shivering of body, dislike towards cold substances, etc are a protective covering of the body to increase blood circulation to important organs of the body it is against the facts of physics.

Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide. Although asthma is a major cause of patient disability and in rare cases causes premature death and it has a profound impact on all aspects of a patient's life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a nursing intervention program on nurses' knowledge and practices and outcomes for patients diagnosed with bronchial asthma. A quasi experimental research design with pre and post-test assessment was used on 30 participants of nurses working in the Chest ICU and the Chest Department at Zagazig University Hospitals, Egypt and 30 adult patients diagnosed with acute severe bronchial asthma under their care. Structured interview tool was used to assess nurses' knowledge, an observation checklist for their practice and the Asthma Severity Assessment Scale and Breathlessness Scale for patients. The researcher developed nursing intervention program based on analysis of assessment data and using pertinent literature to teach nurses guidelines for dealing with patients diagnosed with acute severe asthma. This was delivered to nurses in 12 sessions. Evaluation was done immediately (post-test) and three months after implementation (follow-up), along with evaluation of the patients. The results showed marked deficiencies in nurses’ knowledge and practices before the program, with significant improvements at the post and follow-up evaluations, associated with amelioration of the severity of asthma and dyspnea among studied patients. Therefore, a relatively short-term in service training programs for all nurses working in the Chest ICU and the Chest department is implemented to enable nurses to update their knowledge and practice. Evidence based protocols for patients diagnosed with bronchial asthma should be routinely implemented and evaluated.

Objective: We investigated the association between stroke severity and pre-hospital delay of patients with an acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Method: A consecutive 1,412 patients with AIS enrolled in the acute stroke registry were included in the final study. Stroke severity was assessed by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score. A pre-hospital delay between less than 3 h and 3 h or more was compared using Pearson's chi-square for categorical variables and Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables, as appropriate. Association between initial NIHSS score and pre-hospital delay was plotted with Spearman’s correlation analysis. We used the analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test and chi-squared test to compare the baseline characteristics according to NIHSS tertile. We analysed the variables associated with the higher shift of NIHSS tertile using an ordinal logistic regression analysis.Results: Increased stroke severity decreased the pre-hospital delay (Spearman’s rho=-0.216, p<0.001). Age (common odds ratio (cOR), 1.03; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.02-1.03; p<0.001), history of previous stroke (cOR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.25-1.94; p<0.001) and pre-hospital delay ≥ 3 h (cOR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.39-0.59; p<0.001) were associated with higher shift of NIHSS tertiles in univariable ordinal logistic regression analyses. In multivariable model, pre-hospital delay ≥ 3 h is a negative predictor for higher shift of NIHSS tertile (cOR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.39-0.61; p<0.001).Conclusion: As the stroke severity increased, onset-to-hospital arrival time was decreased in AIS patients. Therefore, the findings suggest the need for development of individualized educational programs for each stroke patient.

Background: Although institutional delivery is the corner stone to reduce maternal death and improve child health, institutional delivery in Ethiopia is the lower in the world where only 26% of women attained skilled delivery. This study aimed to identify factors determininging the utilization of delivery services among women in Farta District. Method: A community based cross sectional study design was conducted from March 1-30, 2017. Multistage sampling was used to select women. Data were collected from a sample of 779 women using structured questionnaire, entered in to EPI-info version 7.2, and analysed by SPSS Version 23. Frequencies, percentages and summary statistics were computed to describe the study population. Logistic regression was computed to identify the associated predictors with skilled delivery service utilization. Statistical level of significance was declared at p<0.05. Results: The prevalence of institutional delivery was 64.4% (95% CI=61, 67.4). A multivariable logistic regression model indicated that family size, availability of transport, planned pregnancy, information about place of delivery, participation of women monthly health conference (PWMHC), information about exempted service, and having antenatal care (ANC) follow up during their last pregnancy were found to be significantly associated with institutional delivery service utilization. Conclusion: The attendance of women for institutional delivery care is good but below the national plan. Maternal care information, women monthly conference and behavioural change for planning pregnancy should be taken due attention to mobilize mothers towards skilled birth attendance. Allocation of more resource to the program and increasing availability of transportation during labor is also commendable. Improving mother’s ANC follow up attendance in resource limited regions is warmly suggested.
背景:虽然机构分娩是减少孕产妇死亡和改善儿童健康的基石,但埃塞俄比亚的机构分娩是世界上最低的,只有26%的妇女获得熟练分娩。这项研究旨在确定决定法尔塔地区妇女利用接生服务的因素。方法:2017年3月1-30日采用基于社区的横断面研究设计。采用多阶段抽样方法选择女性。采用结构化问卷收集779名女性样本的数据,输入EPI-info 7.2版本,并通过SPSS version 23进行分析。计算频率、百分比和汇总统计来描述研究人群。计算逻辑回归以确定与熟练交付服务利用率相关的预测因子。p<0.05为差异有统计学意义。结果:机构分娩的患病率为64.4% (95% CI=61, 67.4)。多变量logistic回归模型表明,家庭规模、交通工具的可用性、计划怀孕、分娩地点信息、妇女每月健康会议(PWMHC)的参与情况、豁免服务信息以及上次怀孕期间产前保健(ANC)随访情况与机构分娩服务的利用显著相关。结论:妇女参加机构分娩护理的情况良好,但低于国家计划。应适当注意产妇保健信息、妇女每月会议和改变计划怀孕的行为,以动员母亲接受熟练的助产服务。为该计划分配更多资源和增加劳动力期间运输的可用性也是值得赞扬的。热忱建议在资源有限的地区改善母亲的ANC后续出勤率。

This study aimed to identify factors determininging the utilization of delivery services among women in Farta District. Method: A community based cross sectional study design was conducted from March 1-30, 2017. Multistage sampling was used to select women. Data were collected from a sample of 779 women using structured questionnaire, entered in to EPI-info version 7.2, and analysed by SPSS Version 23. Frequencies, percentages and summary statistics were computed to describe the study population. Logistic regression was computed to identify the associated predictors with skilled delivery service utilization. Statistical level of significance was declared at p<0.05. Results: The prevalence of institutional delivery was 64.4% (95% CI=61, 67.4). A multivariable logistic regression model indicated that family size, availability of transport, planned pregnancy, information about place of delivery, participation of women monthly health conference (PWMHC), information about exempted service, and having antenatal care (ANC) follow up during their last pregnancy were found to be significantly associated with institutional delivery service utilization. Conclusion: The attendance of women for institutional delivery care is good but below the national plan. Maternal care information, women monthly conference and behavioural change for planning pregnancy should be taken due attention to mobilize mothers towards skilled birth attendance. Allocation of more resource to the program and increasing availability of transportation during labor is also commendable. Improving mother’s ANC follow up attendance in resource limited regions is warmly suggested.","PeriodicalId":22775,"journal":{"name":"The journal of nursing care","volume":"45 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87293060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Indonesia is a developing country with relatively high maternal mortality number. One of the influencing factors for that condition is health services at antenatal, intranatal and postnatal period has not been optimized yet. The optimization effort has been done in several countries through health service based on utilization of mobile phone technology called mobile health. The literature study aimed to present information from previous studies about implementation and benefits of mobile health in the maternity nursing care. The literature sources divided into three country categories including Western, non Western and Indonesia and consist of 30 online literatures. The implementation of mobile health in maternity nursing care showed positive impact in knowledge, motivation, and health behavior of the mother.
