Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect of an educational intervention for the adequate use of the Dignified Treatment indicator by the nursing staff before the care of hospitalized patients. Methods: Pre-experimental analysis performed from February to March of 2017 in a public hospital in San Luis Potosí Mexico, with 37 nurses. In the first stage, a diagnostic evaluation of knowledge was elaborated. In the second, an education program was implemented for the proper use of the decent treatment indicator. In the third, nursing knowledge was evaluated and the before and after tests were compared by the t-Student parametric test. Results: For the diagnostic stage, 97% of nursing staff had a low level of knowledge. After implementing the program, 80% of the team increased their level. Conclusions: The educational intervention increased the knowledge about the use of the Dignified Treatment indicator.

This project describes implementation of an educational intervention designed to initiate practice changes that support families and nurses during acute illness. An academic–practice partnership and digital storytelling methodology provided a foundation. A quasi-experimental research design included quantitative and qualitative measurement before and after the educational intervention. Themes identified in digital stories of nurse experiences caring for families provided direction for the educational intervention including the digital stories, empirical evidence, and proposed changes in nursing practice focused on families. Nurse participants ( n = 160) in the educational intervention reported positive responses on a qualitative questionnaire. Comparing pretest and posttest results of the Family Nurse Practice Scale reflected positive, though not significant change. Family members ( n = 49) reported significantly improved perceptions of support on 7 of the 14 items on the Iceland Perceived Family Support Questionnaire. This project highlighted digital storytelling’s power to promote family interventions and move family nursing knowledge into practice.

This study sought to improve nursing staff understanding regarding the differences in postoperative management between patients who have undergone tracheostomy and laryngectomy. The intervention involved a brief didactic session followed by the placement of an informative poster and anatomic diagram above the bed of tracheostomy and laryngectomy patients over a 6-month period. Data were collected before and after the didactic session and poster implementation. Of the 50 nurses surveyed, 32% believed oral ventilation is appropriate for laryngectomy patients compared to 0% of nurses after the intervention. The percentage of nursing staff reporting self-assessed clear understanding of the patient care differences between laryngectomy and tracheostomy improved after the intervention. The use of informational posters and didactic sessions significantly improves nursing staff understanding of the differences between tracheostomy and laryngectomy patients. Level of Evidence: IV

Introduction: The Achilles tendinopathy with tendon injuries are the third most common in the musculoskeletal system. New therapies have been proposed for the treatment of tendinopathy as Percutaneous Microelectrólisis (MEP ®). Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of MEP ® on tendinopathy of Achilles. Method: This was a controlled clinical trial, randomized study. The sample comprised 20 patients with Achilles tendinopathy. The volunteers were randomly divided into two groups, control (G1) underwent conventional treatment protocol and experimental (G2) which was under the application of MEP. We made two visits per week for a month, totaling eight sessions. As evaluation method were used four questions from Visa-A questionnaire related to the functionality and exercise pratice. Data were analyzed using paired and independent T test . Results: The pain when walking down stairs has been observed a reduction in G1 (p <0.05) and G2 (p <0.001) before and after the protocols. Among the groups there was a greater reduction in G2 (p <0.001). Pain after heating was observed a reduction in G2 (p <0.001). Among them there was a greater reduction (p <0.05) in G2. For pain was observed after walking a reduction in G1 (p <0.05) and G2 (p <0.001) before and after the protocols. Among them there was a reduction (p <0.05) higher in G2. In pain after exercise was observed a reduction in G2 (p <0.001). Among the groups there was a greater decrease in G2 (p <0.05). Conclusion: We conclude that the MEP ® helps reduce pain in functional activities.

Abstract Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate district nurses’ (DN) perceived nutritional care and actual level of knowledge about nutritional care before and after a continuing educational intervention. Background: Nutritional treatment is an important part of nursing care, and health professionals responsible for nutritional care for older adults must therefore have sufficient understanding of nutritional problems to provide appropriate support. Previous research has shown that nutritional problems frequently go unrecognized and that health care personnel often lacks knowledge about nutritional care and relevant methods of assessing nutritional status. However, little is known about DNs’ knowledge about nutritional care. Methods: An evaluative study with a study-specific questionnaire administered before and after a 2.5-day continuing educational course for DNs in primary health care in Stockholm County, Sweden. The course was given over a period of two to three months. The questionnaire measured DNs’ perceived nutritional care and actual level of knowledge about nutritional care. Findings: A total of 456 DNs completed the questionnaire both before and after the intervention. Participants’ mean age was 50 years. They had worked a mean of 26 years in health care and 10 years as DNs. Before the intervention, many DNs reported that they did not work with nutritional care in an optimal way. After the intervention, significant improvements were found in perceived nutritional care and actual level of knowledge about the topic. However, not all DNs achieved the learning objectives of the course, so work remains to be done to ensure that DNs have sufficient knowledge of nutritional care to provide appropriate support and correctly prescribe oral nutritional supplements. Conclusions: The study provides new information on DNs’ perceived nutritional care and actual level of knowledge. The result of the intervention helps lay the foundation for good nutritional care for older patients in primary care.
