The purpose of the study was to identify the Contribution of Nursing Research to Nursing Administration and Organization in improving patients care among nurses at Consolata Hospital Chuka Meru, Kenya. The researcher used a descriptive survey, study area being Consolata Hospital Chuka. The target population was composed of eighteen (18) nurses working at the hospital. Eighteen nurses were interviewed as represented by 77.8% (n=14) Registered Community Health Nurses at the diploma level, and 22.2% (n=4) Enrolled Community Health Nurses at the certificate level working in the Hospital. Inclusive criteria were all nurses who had completed two months working in the hospital. Questionnaires were used for data collection. Systematic sampling was adopted in selecting respondents and administering questionnaires. The quantitative data collection method was used and data analyzed through descriptive statistics such as mean, median and percentage to describe the results. Presentation of findings was done using frequency tables, pie charts, and a discussion. The results showed that 100% of the participants agreed that research contributes significantly to the improvement of patients care and 50% were convinced that research contributes much to the improvement of patient care and in administration at Consolata Hospital Chuka. Despite the fact that nursing research is significant in a healthcare organization, it requires a lot of interest and consideration. In addition, all the participants 100% (n=18) recommended Continuous Professional Development (CPD) and further research to be carried out regularly in order to equip nurses with the necessary knowledge, skills, and experience to deal with patients.

This study examined the types of stressors that Community Health Nurses at Tamale Teaching Hospital encounter in their work. The sample consisted of 95 Nurses drawn from six health facilities in Tamale. The instrument used in this research was a self-designed inventory. ANOVA and Independent Sample T Tests analyses were used to analyze the data. The responses of the Nurses revealed that gender did not have an influence on the workload. The Staff Nurses perceive more administrative stressors than the other ranks. Those with 1-2years had more environmental workload than the rest. It was also found that the Muslims had more administrative stress than the other religions. The Tamale Hospital had more logistics than the other facilities. The recommendations centered mainly on screening most Nurses with Stress Inventories and organizing stress management workshops for them. It was also recommended that this study be replicated in the other two regional hospitals in Upper East and Upper West in the country.

The healthcare system refers to the way of treatment and policy which more than just medicine and doctors. In this regard, the developed nations rely on traditional medicine health care system model which engages doctors, nursing staff, pharmacists, and healthcare experts and professionals to deliver medicines and surgeries to provide individuals with health care services. Holistic medication or Naturopathic emphasizes the overall wellbeing and treatment of an individual. The developed countries invest a reasonable amount of their budget to their healthcare system. However, the developing and underdeveloped countries lack resources as compared to developing nations. As a result of inadequate resources, the developing and underdeveloped nations do not allocate required resources in their health sector which affects the overall health of the population at large scale regarding life expectancy, infant mortality rate, maternal mortality rate, prevention against diseases, and the crude death rate.

There has been a near absent practice of specialized diabetic foot care observed in health institutions in Rivers State, Nigeria. The study assessed the practice of diabetic foot care among 100 nurses in the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital and the Rivers State Hospitals Management Board Hospitals (which include General Hospitals from all the local government areas) in Rivers state, Nigeria before and after interventional training. A one-day hands-on training workshop on diabetic foot care, adopted from the National Institute for Healthcare Excellence (NICE), was implemented to train one hundred (100) nursing practitioners. A structured questionnaire on different aspects of diabetic foot care was interviewer-administered to the nurses and scored accordingly before and after the training. Practice of foot inspection, palpation, footwear assessment and assessment of patient’s capacity for self-care was found to be significantly low prior to training. An improvement in practice of the different aspects of diabetic foot care among the nurses after the intervention was observed. This buttresses the need for formal training of nursing practitioners on diabetic foot care for improvement of the quality of diabetes care in Rivers State, Nigeria

The study was conducted with the intention to comprehensively identify the nurses and midwives’ perception about the benefits that motivate them for higher education and what ‘they perceive as the barriers faced’ to undertake higher studies. Many nurses would like to go for higher education, but some barriers were strong enough to stop them. Study intended to identify the barriers from their own perception. Survey method with structured questionnaire deployed for data collection. Quantitative and qualitative study design was employed for analysis. Survey on the RNs and RMs’ perception about the benefits of higher education and the barriers to higher education (HE), conducted on 450 multinational nurses and midwives in a multi-specialty hospital in Dubai during September 2018, showed numerical variables like age and years of professional experience are having a significant association with the interest to undertake higher studies. 82.5% of those with DHA experience (21-25 years) shown interest whereas only 30.2% of them with experience more than 26 years Dubai Health Authority (DHA) experience, showed interest. RNs and RMs in the younger age group 22-30 years (73.1%) showed a greater interest for higher studies. No Significant difference in ‘perception of interest to do higher studies’ was observed among nurses and midwives, based on their designation. 61.6% had interest for HE but barriers prevented 83.6% respondents from going for it.

Cancellation of elective surgeries could be reduced to a greater extend if one knows the reasons or factors leading to cancellations. Cross sectional study conducted in a multispecialty hospital in Dubai during 2014-2015, to determine the weightage of the causes and the rate of cancellations. Causes were classified into system related, patient related and medical related. Performed quantitative analysis of the causes and rate of cancellations. Trend of cancellations reduced across the period from October 2014 to June 2015. 6008 surgeries were scheduled from October 2014 to June 2015. 5656 surgeries were performed; there were 352 cancellations in total. 6% cases were cancelled. Based on category wise weightage, medical related causes scored the highest reason (69.89%). Patient related causes (15.63%) was slightly more than the system related causes (14.49%). ‘Patient medically unfit for surgery’ ranked highest in the order of the reasons for cancellations. ‘Patients/relatives refused surgery’ was the second highest. ‘Patient had food before the surgery’ though instructed nil oral, ranked the third highest reason. Study of cancellations is important as the identification of the causes of surgery cancellations would help in averting the conditions leading to cancellations. Proper and timely interventions could reduce the cancellation rate. The cancellation rate reduced comparatively in the post study period. Cancellation could cause wastage of valuable time, effort and energy. Moreover, financial burden to patients & hospitals. Resource wastage can be estimated based on the cancellation rate, if the hospital administrators around the world focus their attention to it.

Background: Documentation of nursing care is core to the Nursing profession and to share information on patients/clients with other nurses and between clinical disciplines and care settings, data needs to be recorded and stored in a standardized form. Therefore, to make the care nurses give to be visible, NANDA-I, NIC & NOC was endorsed to be used for documentation. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether NANDA-I, NIC, & NOC was used for documentation of care at the maternal and infant welfare units of selected Primary Health Centres (PHCs). Methodology: A retrospective descriptive research design was adopted in this study. Random sampling technique was used to select 5 PHCs. All patient nursing care plan records documented with NANDA-I, NIC & NOC was utilized for data analysis. Data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17.0 for both descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Findings revealed that nursing care was documented using NNN. There was no significant difference in the NANDA-I nursing diagnoses, NIC & NOC used as the t calculated value of -1.00 was lesser than the critical value of 1.96, which was not significant at 0.05 alpha levels. Conclusion: This study has evaluated the documentation of care using NNN in PHCs. It is imperative to state that using NNN for documentation of care is a way of showing evidence-based practice. The researcher therefore recommends that the use and documentation quality of the NNN be evaluated periodically, and corresponding feedbacks given to nurses.

Background: Shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) is the best choice treatment for renal stone. Aim of the study is to test the effect of pre-procedure teaching module for patients undergoing SWL on patients' anxiety, claustrophobia and pain perception, and stone clearance. Methods: A quasi-experimental research design was utilized in this study, setting: The study was conducted in SWL unit at Prince Mutaib Bin Abelaziz Central Hospital, Saudi Arabia. Sample: A convenience sample consisted of 74 patients they divided equally into study and control groups. Tools: (1) An interviewing questionnaire sheet which included two parts; A) demographic and medical data and B) patients' knowledge questionnaire, (2) Beck Anxiety Inventory, (3) Numerical pain rating scale and (3) Visual analogue scale for claustrophobia. Results: Before receiving pre-procedure teaching module 100% of patients in both groups had poor level of knowledge. After receiving teaching; the study group had significant improvement in their knowledge, decrease in anxiety, claustrophobia and postoperative pain scores as well as an increase in rate of successful treatment and stone clearance than the control group (p <0.05). Conclusions: Overall results revealed that pre-procedure teaching for patients experiencing SWL procedure Led to improvement of patients' knowledge and reduction of anxiety, claustrophobia and pain scores after procedure as well as an increase in rate of successful treatment and urolithiasis clearance in the study group than the control group. Recommendations, planned teaching and simple Arabic booklet about SWL, preoperative instructions, post-procedure management, nutritional habits and life style modifications should be provided to patients before SWL.
