Introduction: Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a known and early complication of Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) patients. Renal hyperparathyroidism leads to a host of bone and cardiovascular problems that ultimately can cause fractures, decreased quality of life, and an increased risk of death. Aim: To determine the hospital-prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism in CRF patient and establish the correlation between Serum Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) level, Serum calcium and Serum phosphorus level. Materials and Methods: It was a cross-sectional study conducted on 50 patients with CRF at Government Hospital of Bhavnagar, Gujarat. Detailed medical history and blood investigations were done as a tool for data collection. The study variables were described by using statistical parameters like proportion, mean and standard deviation. Correlation coefficient was used for analysing relationship between Serum PTH, calcium and phosphorus. Results: Mean age of the patients was 42.57 (SD 15.19) years with almost equal representation of both genders. Hypertension was the most common aetiological morbidity (62%) among the study participants followed by diabetes (20%). The hospital prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism was 86% in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Serum PTH negatively correlated with serum calcium and positively correlated with serum phosphorus with correlation coefficient value of -0.32 and 0.15, respectively. Conclusion: Parathyroid abnormalities and disorders of mineral metabolism are common among patients with CKD. Parathyroid abnormalities detected early may prevent future long term extra-renal complications.

TKI korban deportasi mengalami gejala gangguan jiwa, yang dicetuskan dan dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor potensial.Tujuan Penelitian: Menganalisis faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian gangguan jiwa pada TKI yang mengalami deportasi di Kabupaten Nunukan, Kalimantan Utara.Metode Penelitian: Penelitian ini adalah analitik observasional korelasi klinis dengan pendekatan cross sectional study. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Shelter, Kabupaten Nunukan, Kalimantan Utara, selama bulan Februari – Maret 2018. Subyek yang memenuhi kriteria akan diambil datanya secara total sampling melalui instrumen kuesioner dan dianalisis secara statistik.Hasil Penelitian: Seluruh subyek penelitian, 67 orang, didapatkan  gangguan jiwa, didominasi episode depresif (14,9%), gangguan anxietas menyeluruh (14,9%), dan distimia (13,4%). Hasil Oneway Anova pada variabel religiusitas (Spiritual Well Being; Religious Well Being; Existential Well Being) dan kategori gangguan jiwa, didapatkan berturut-turut nilai p = 0,962; p = 0,853; p = 0,523 (p > 0,05). Hasil uji Fisher’s exact antara variabel tipe kepribadian dengan gangguan kejiwaan didapatkan nilai signifikansi sebesar p=0,306 (p > 0,05). Hasil uji Fisher’s Exact antara variabel dukungan sosial dan gangguan kejiwaan didapatkan nilai signifikansi p=0,686 (p>0,05). Hasil uji Fisher’s Exact variabel stresor psikososial dengan gangguan jiwa, didapatkan nilai signifikansi sebesar p=0,328 (p > 0,05).Simpulan: Seluruh subyek penelitian didapati mengalami gangguan jiwa dengan tipe yang bervariasi. Tidak didapatkan hubungan antara tipe kepribadian, stresor psikososial, dukungan sosial,daan tingkat religiusitas dengan kejadian gangguan jiwa pada Tenaga Kerja Indonesia yang mengalami deportasi di Kabupaten Nunukan, Kalimantan Utara.

Objectives: To analyze the relationships between the quality of life (QOL) of people with stoma with sociodemographic, clinical, lifestyle, sanitation, and housing indicators. Method: Cross-sectional study with a sample of 106 individuals with stoma interviewed from May to December 2019. A sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire and the City of Hope Quality of Life Ostomy Questionnaire were used. Results: Spiritual well-being (7.71 +/-1.09) was the best performing domain. Quality of life did not differ between men and women (p = 0.372), but was associated with education (< 0.001) and family income (p = 0.025), diabetes (p = 0.008) and alcoholism (p = 0.044), drinking water conditions (p < 0.001), garbage disposal (p = 0.021), having electricity (p = 0.034), housing type (p = 0.026), number of rooms (p = 0.023), and housing coverage (p = 0.021). Conclusion: worse socioeconomic, sanitation, and housing indicators appear to negatively impact the QOL of people with stomata.

ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize relations between spiritual well-being and hope of patients in the preoperative period of cardiac surgery. Method: Exploratory cross-sectional study with quantitative approach, performed in the infirmaries of a reference hospital in cardiology. We evaluated 69 patients hospitalized in preoperative period of myocardial revascularization, valve repair or replacement. Results: We verified that patients hold relevant scores of hope and welfare in all areas, being the existential well-being significantly lower than the religious one. The average of the spiritual well-being score was below the required to be considered high. There was no significant correlation between welfare and hope. Conclusion: Nurses should develop a watchful eye to these issues, be trained in specific protocols of spiritual anamnese and use the real moments of care to strengthen the patients.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the most frequent nursing diagnoses in chronic renal failure patients on hemodialysis.METHODS: A cross-sectional study including 178 patients, selected by convenience sample, consecutively recruited. For data collection, interview guides and physical examination were used. An individual process of clinical judgment for the nursing diagnoses was performed and, for better accuracy, the results obtained underwent a process of paired review among the authors.RESULTS: Twenty-four nursing diagnoses were identified, of which the most frequent were: risk for infection (100%); excessive fluid volume (99.4%); and, hypothermia (61.8%).CONCLUSION: The most frequent diagnoses identified were included in the safety / protection and nutrition domains of NANDA-I.
