Purpose The aim of this study it to determine the effect of training intensive care unit (ICU) nurses in reducing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Materials and methods A quasi-experimental (single group, pre-test–post-test) model was used. The study was conducted in 2015, in nine adult ICUs in Istanbul, where we observed the VAP rate and trained study group nurses. Sixty nurses were given two VAP training sessions (averaging 45 min each) at intervals of 6 months. Forty-nine nurses were in the control group. Data were collected with an Introductory Information Form, a VAP Information Test, and an Application Status of VAP Preventive/Reducing Initiatives Form. The incidences of VAP in 2014 and 2015 were also compared. Frequencies, percentages, means, standard deviations, t-tests, Wilcoxon tests, and χ2 tests were used to evaluate the data. The values of p less than .05 were considered significant. Results The mean-total-knowledge score increased significantly in the study group. The application of preventive/reducing initiatives also increased significantly in the study group, but in the last measurement, the difference between the groups was not statistically significant. The incidences of VAP decreased significantly in the study group. Conclusion The study showed that the VAP training given to intensive care nurses increased their knowledge level and decreased the incidence of VAP in their ICUs.

Early Clinical Exposure

Objectives: Early years of undergraduate medical education (especially the first 2 years) are critical for the academic success of medical students. In the traditional curricula of medical education, students learn theoretical knowledge without contact with the patient in a clinical context. Early clinical exposure (ECE) has been suggested to help medical fresh students overcome their stresses and motivate them to develop better insight and awareness to the medical profession. Materials and Methods: We devised a teaching-learning ECE intervention study module in endocrine physiology, which comprised traditional didactic lectures, supplemented with an ECE program in a hospital setting, a hospital visit to see patients. The study group was given the intervention of ECE, through the ECE designed module. The outcomes and effectiveness of this intervention were assessed by a multiple-choice pretest/post-test model of learning knowledge gain and effectiveness of the educational intervention by calculating learning matrices. Students feedback toward ECE was assessed by a 5 point Likert-scale responses and their views through a validated questionnaire. Results: Mean pre-test and post-test scores of students learning improved significantly from 9.6 ± 2.58 (48%) to 13.2 ± 2.53 (66%), (P = 0.043) in the study group. The learning gain (gi) for individual students was tabulated and average single student normalised gain Gi(avg) was calculated. For the study group, it was 29 ± 33% and control group 7 ± 14%. To assess the intervention effectiveness class average normalised gain G was found to be 34%, in the study group and 13% in the control group (P < 0.05). The study group students (96.4%) gave an overall rating of good/excellent to ECE on a five-point Likert scale. The mean score was (4.3 ± 1.4) showing that the overall rating of ECE was good to excellent. Conclusion: The pre-test/post-test model with a calculation of various measures of learning gain provides an objective and informative means to document learner performance and demonstrate the effectiveness of the educational intervention. The students’ satisfaction and their positive attitude toward ECE suggested that this interventional study improves the quality of basic science courses and adds substantial relevance to clinical application.

<strong>Background</strong>: This study was undertaken to determine whether methylprednisolone could improve myocardial protection by altering the cytokine profile toward an anti-inflammatory course in patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).<br /><strong>Methods</strong>: Forty patients who were scheduled for elective CABG surgery were randomized into two groups: the study group (n = 20), who received 1 g of methylprednisolone intravenously before CPB, and the control group (n = 20), who underwent a standard CABG surgery without any additional medication. Blood samples were withdrawn prior to surgery (T1) and then 4 hours (T2), 24 hours (T3), and 36 hours (T4) after CPB. Plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB), cardiac troponin-t (cTnT), and blood glucose as well as neutrophil counts were measured at each sampling time. <br /><strong>Results</strong>: A comparison of patients between both groups revealed significantly high levels of IL-6 in the control group at T2, T3, and T4 with respect to T1 (T2: P &lt; .001; T3: <br />P &lt; .001; T4: P &lt; .001). IL-10 levels were significantly higher in the study group at T2 compared with the control group <br />(P = .007). CK-MB levels were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group at T4 (P = .001). The increase of cTnT was higher in the control group at T3 and T4 compared with the study group (T3: P = .002; T4: P = .001).<br /><strong>Conclusions</strong>: This study demonstrates that methylprednisolone is effective for ensuring better myocardial protection during cardiac surgery by suppressing the inflammatory response via decreasing the levels of IL-6 and by increasing anti-inflammatory activity through IL-10.<br /><br />

Relevance. Information about the cardiovascular diseases risk factors (CVD RF) for in men with chronic lung inflam-matory pathology (CLID) is contradictory and requires clarification. Aim. To evaluate the peculiarities of CVD RF in men under 60 years of age with CLID in myocardial infarction (MI) to improve prevention. Material and methods. The study included men aged 19-60 years old with type I myocardial infarction. Patients are divided into two age-comparable groups: I - the study group, with CLID - 142 patients; II - control, without it - 424 patients. A comparative analysis of the frequency of observation of the main and additional cardiovascular risk fac-tors in groups was performed. Results. In patients of the study group, more often than in the control group we observed: hereditary burden of is-chemic heart disease (40.8 and 31.6%, respectively; p = 0.0461) and arterial hypertension (54.2 and 44.6%; p = 0.0461), frequent colds (24.6 and 12.0%; p = 0.0003), a history of extrasystoles (19.7 and 12.7%; p = 0.04); chronic foci of infections of internal organs (75.4 and 29.5%; p˂0.0001), non-ulcer lesions of the digestive system (26.1 and 14.6%; p = 0.007), smoking (95.1 and 66.3%; p˂0.0001), MI in winter (40.8 and 25.9%; p = 0.006). Less commonly were observed: oral cavity infections (9.2 and 23.6%; p˂0.0001); hypodynamia (74.5 and 82.5%; p = 0.0358), over-weight (44.4 and 55.2%; p = 0.0136), a subjective relationship between the worsening of the course of coronary heart disease and the season of the year (43.7 and 55.2%; p = 0.0173) and MI - in the autumn (14.1 and 21.9%; p = 0.006) period. Conclusions. The structure of CVD RF in men under 60 years of age with CLID with MI is characterized by the pre-dominance of smoking, non-ulcer pathology of the digestive system, frequent pro-student diseases, meteorological dependence, a history of cardiac arrhythmias and foci of internal organ infections. It is advisable to use the listed factors when planning preventive measures in such patients.
