Nursing diagnoses in orthopedic surgery
Authors: Roberta Araújo Wanessa , Andres Solai Cibele
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Trauma is a preventable disease that represents a major public health problem worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, around 5.8 million people die from trauma every year. This disease is the leading cause of death in populations up to 40 years of age and often causes disabling damage, mainly neurological and orthopaedic. Orthopaedic trauma is responsible for the majority of orthopaedic surgeries, which are indicated to repair injuries and improve the patient's mobility. In addition to the orthopaedic surgical procedure, it is essential that nursing care is provided in a systematized way through the implementation of resolutive interventions based on best practices and guided by nursing diagnoses, which allow clinical judgment on individual findings as well as evaluation of the patient's responses to the therapies instituted. Objectives: To describe the most frequent nursing diagnoses related to orthopedic surgeries in adult patients according to the NANDA Taxonomy - I 2018 - 2023. Method: A literature review was carried out using publications freely available in Portuguese and published between 2018 and 2023 in the Pubmed, Scielo, Virtual Health Library and Google Scholar databases. Results: Seven studies were analyzed, which allowed us to identify that the most frequent EDs in the postoperative period of orthopedic surgeries belonged to the domains of activity and rest, safety and protection, comfort, elimination and exchange, listed in order of greatest occurrence: Impaired skin and tissue integrity, impaired physical and bed mobility, impaired ambulation, risk of falls, risk of infection, acute pain, impaired comfort, impaired ability to transfer, deficit in self-care for bathing and hygiene, anxiety, impaired sleep pattern, risk of constipation, risk of pressure injury, risk for peripheral neurovascular dysfunction and risk of thrombosis. It should be noted that some of these diagnoses stem from the initial traumatic event, especially those related to skin lesions and impaired mobility. Impaired skin integrity, impaired physical mobility and acute pain were described as the most frequent EDs in all the publications. Conclusions: Identifying the most frequent EDs in orthopaedic surgery is highly relevant for appropriate care planning, with a view to continuously improving quality of care and reducing complications associated with this therapy. It is essential that nursing actions are implemented at all stages of the orthopedic surgical procedure, from the preoperative period to the final stages of surgical recovery.
Integrative review of the nursing team's approach to perinatal bereavement
Authors: De Oliveira Souza Beatriz Mara , Alves dos Santos William , Facina Brandão Patrícia
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Communicating a death to a mother is a challenge for health professionals, as the information will have a negative impact on the experience of the people involved. It is therefore a delicate condition, which requires attention to the particularities of the news that will be communicated, the person and the relatives who will receive the news. The way in which the bad news is conveyed has repercussions on the immediate reactions of the people involved and on the mental elaboration of the adverse event. The moment of communicating death to the patient is delicate, as it generates anxiety and insecurity in the professional responsible for transmitting this bad news. Method: This is a quantitative, descriptive data analysis study. The inclusion criteria were complete articles using the following subject descriptors: bereavement, perinatal care, women, taken from the last 10 years. The database used was the Nursing Database (BDENF). The exclusion criteria were articles that did not correspond to the years of publication and that were not complete and indexed in the database. Results: 3 full articles were found: 1 monograph article, 1 thesis article and 1 full article. Only one was found in English, while the others were in Portuguese. It can be seen from the reading that the nursing team needs to take better action to deal with perinatal bereavement and to help families who are witnessing it. Conclusion: The nursing team's role in assisting women with fetal death needs to be specific and specialized. It is of the utmost importance that health professionals humanize this mother's care, as nursing is directly linked to maternal bereavement care. The humanized approach, emotional and physical pain, are attributes of the nursing team in dealing with care and communication with the mother in perinatal death.

Published: June 2024

The global elderly population is growing exponentially; with that comes the burden of mental health disorders and the associated comorbidities that these elderly suffer from. Psychological interventions have been proposed to offload that burden and decrease the severity or incidence of mental health disorders. The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the current literature on psychological interventions for mental health disorders. The current literature suggests sufficient evidence backed by extensive literature supporting psychological interventions in older adults. This aspect of care should be investigated and incorporated into treatment plans for mental health disorders as well as a form of prevention of other organic diseases that could lead to mental health disorders.

Authors: Gokcen Neslihan , Cefle Ayse
Published: June 2024

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by a wide range of clinical manifestations and a relapsing-remitting course. The peak incidence of SLE occurs during the reproductive years; however, it can develop at any age. Late-onset SLE, which is diagnosed at age 50 or older, accounts for approximately 20% of all SLE cases. The comparison between late-onset SLE patients and their early-onset counterparts has revealed distinct differences in clinical characteristics, comorbidities, and mortality rates. Late-onset SLE patients exhibit lower frequencies of mucocutaneous, renal, hematological, and neuropsychiatric symptoms but higher rates of serositis, peripheral polyneuropathy, cardiovascular diseases, and pulmonary involvement. Additionally, they experience a greater burden of comorbidities and increased mortality rates. Here, we review the clinical characteristics, comorbidities, and mortality of patients with late-onset SLE.

Authors: Koshariya Ashok Kumar , Satkar Kuntal , Rawte Suman
Published: June 2024

Horticultural crops face numerous challenges, including various diseases and quality issues that significantly impact productivity and marketability. Traditional methods of disease management and quality improvement often rely on chemical interventions, which can have detrimental effects on the environment and human health. In recent years, biotechnological approaches have emerged as promising alternatives to address these challenges in a more sustainable and effective manner. This review paper explores novel biotechnological strategies aimed at enhancing disease resistance and improving quality parameters in horticultural plants. These strategies encompass genetic engineering techniques, such as the introduction of resistance genes, RNA interference, and genome editing, as well as the application of beneficial microorganisms, including plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria and mycorrhizal fungi. Additionally, the potential of nanotechnology in delivering targeted molecules for disease control and quality enhancement is discussed. The review also highlights the importance of marker-assisted selection in accelerating the development of disease-resistant and high-quality varieties. Furthermore, the integration of omics technologies, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, is explored as a means to unravel the underlying mechanisms of disease resistance and quality traits. The challenges associated with the commercialization and public acceptance of biotechnology-derived horticultural products are also addressed. By providing a comprehensive overview of these novel biotechnological strategies, this review aims to facilitate the development of sustainable and effective solutions for the horticultural industry, ultimately contributing to global food security and consumer satisfaction.

Published: June 2024

1896 yılında, Macarların Orta Avrupa’daki bin yıllık tarihini ve medeniyetlerinin ulaştığı ileri düzeyi kutlamak amacıyla düzenlenen büyük sergi, Peşte Ziraat Müzesi’nin kurulmasına esin kaynağı olmuştur. Bu etkinlik, ziraî koleksiyonların korunması ve sergilenmesi gerekliliğini ortaya koymuş, bu da müzenin tarımsal ürünler ve teknolojileri sergileme, halkı ve tarımcıları bilgilendirme görevini şekillendirmiştir. Müze, tarımın modernizasyonuna katkı sağlayarak zirai bilgi akışını desteklemiştir. Bu süreç, Macaristan’ın tarımsal kapasitelerini global düzeyde tanıtmasına ve tarım pratiklerinin geliştirilmesine yardımcı olmuştur.
Söz konusu müze, zirai yenilik arayışında olan Osmanlı Devleti’nin dikkatini de çekmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti, çeşitli iklim koşulları ve geniş arazilere sahip olduğu için zengin bir zirai üretim potansiyeline sahipti. Dönemin yenilikçi eğitim politikaları, tarımsal ürünlerin ve sanayi mallarının sistematik bir şekilde kaydedilmesini öne çıkarmıştır. Bu ihtiyaç doğrultusunda, Halkalı Ziraat Okulu bünyesindeki Ziraat Müzesi’nin düzenlenmesine karar verilmiştir. Bu önemli görev, okulun iktisat muallimi Mehmed Ali Bey’e tevdi edilmiş ve müzenin yeniden yapılandırılma sürecinde Peşte Ziraat Müzesi, referans noktası olarak belirlenmiştir.
1918 yılı yazında, Mehmed Ali Bey’in Breslav ve Budapeşte’ye gerçekleştirdiği seyahatler, bilimsel ve kültürel etkileşimler açısından zengin bir deneyim sunmuş ve Osmanlı tarım ve ticaret erbabının üretimlerinin uluslararası sergilerde temsil edilmesine olanak tanımıştır. Seyahat hazırlıkları sırasında yapılan dikkatli planlamalar ve belgelendirmeler, bu görevin başarılı bir şekilde yürütülmesini sağlamıştır. Mehmed Ali Bey’e verilen diplomatik pasaport, karşılaşılan bürokratik engelleri aşmada kolaylıklar sağlamıştır.
Mehmed Ali Bey, bu süreçte hem tecrübeli hem de yenilikçi bir eğitimci olarak yeteneklerini ortaya koymuştur. Bu makalede, Mehmed Ali Bey tarafından kaleme alınan kapsamlı raporun ışığında, Peşte Ziraat Müzesi’nin kuruluş süreci, sergilediği özellikler ve tarımsal bilgi birikimine katkıları detaylı bir biçimde ele alınacaktır. Araştırmanın öncelikli amacı, müzenin tarihini, içeriğini ve mirasını titizlikle incelemektir.

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Society of the Philippines (PIDSP) Journal has been in circulation since 1996. To this day, it remains to be indexed in the Western Region Pacific Index Medicus (WPRIM), the regional bibliographic index of medical journals published by Member States of the Region. A major target for the journal this year is the planned transition to an online manuscript submission and review system. E-REVIEWS or Enhancing Research Dissemination Via An Efficient Web-based Journal Management System is underway. Preparations for wider indexing is a not too distant project. As the journal committee continues to raise the bar with its timely and relevant publications, we perceive the need for a more comprehensive Publication Ethics and Publication Malpractice Guideline based on the Code of Conduct and Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors of the Committee on Publication Ethics. For this reason, the Journal Team is featuring the first of a series of guidelines related to ethics in medical publication to govern all stakeholders.
Enhancing Research Dissemination Via an Efficient Web-based Journal Management System (E-REVIEWS)
Authors: delos Reyes Carmina , Dy-Co Arlene , Enriquez-Briones Giselle Mikhaela
Published: June 2024

Background/Objectives: The current manual processes of manuscript submission, screening, review, and editorial management in the Pediatric Infectious Disease Society of the Philippines (PIDSP) Journal rely heavily on email exchanges between the authors and journal manager, who acts as the liaison for the editors-in-chief (EIC) and peer reviewers. This method proves inefficient. To address this, the PIDSP Journal Editorial Team created E-REVIEWS, aimed at streamlining journal procedures to boost manuscript submissions, and ensure timely publication. Methodology: E-REVIEWS was developed using Python as the primary computer programming language and Django as the web framework.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic led to a public health emergency causing changes that may pose a greater risk of behavioral and psychosocial problems for children. Children of healthcare workers are possibly at increased risk of mental health problems due to their parent’s constant exposure to COVID-19. The Pediatric Symptoms Checklist-35 (PSC-35) is one of the validated psychosocial screening tools that helps identify emotional, cognitive, and behavior problems in children. Objective: To determine the psychosocial impact of COVID-19 pandemic on 6-16 years old children of healthcare workers using the PSC-35. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional analytic study. Demographic and clinical data were collected. PSC-35 were administered from June 2023-September 2023 to the healthcare worker parents with children aged 6-16 years old. Using this validated PSC-35, questions are a series of signs and symptoms related to impairments in cognitive, emotional, and/or behavioral well-being of children. This 35-item questionnaire was rated and scored as 0 for Never,1 for Sometimes, and 2 for Often. The total scores were evaluated, calculated, and interpreted. A cut off score of 28 or higher indicates a high possibility psychosocial impairment that warrant further investigation or referral to a specialist. Results and Conclusions: Out of 372 respondents, 4.57% (n=17) children were found at risk of psychosocial impairment with PSC-35 score of 28 and higher. Two demographic factors were found to have a significant correlation with scores above the cutoff: maternal occupation (p-value 0.018) and the presence of comorbidity in the parent (p-value 0.000). Children found to be at risk were advised consultation with a specialist.

Objectives: Identifying factors that can lead to an outbreak in an orphanage is important. This study describes a COVID-19 outbreak in an orphanage in the Philippines. The clinicodemographic profile of the children and employees, safety protocols implemented and outbreak response are reported. Methodology: This is a descriptive study of the COVID-19 outbreak which occurred at a local orphanage in Metro Manila. The clinicodemographic profile of children and employees were obtained from the orphanage’s health records. Interview of employees and administrators and focused group discussions (FDG) were done. A questionnaire on how the orphanage dealt with the COVID-19 pandemic was administered. Results: A total of 128 children and 34 staff were in the orphanage during the COVID-19 outbreak. Majority (96%) of children were symptomatic and 15% of them have co-morbidities. While 82% of the employees were asymptomatic, majority had a positive rapid antigen test or RT-PCR for SARS-CoV2. All the children and employees had mild illness and recovered with no complications. The orphanage implemented strict infection control measures when the COVID-19 pandemic was declared. There was a halt in the adoption processes and in the movement of persons in the orphanage. With the decline of COVID-19 cases in Metro Manila, the orphanage resumed accepting new admissions and processing adoption papers. A few weeks later, a child became symptomatic but was not immediately considered as a case of COVID-19. This was followed by the majority of the children and the employees becoming symptomatic, thus the COVID-19 outbreak was called. Foremost in the response was to attend to the medical needs of the children. Strict lockdown was enforced by the City Health Office until all cases were deemed not contagious. Conclusion: Factors that can lead to an outbreak in an orphanage include missed opportunities for early diagnosis, contact tracing and intervention. Despite strict infection control measures, a single breach undermined all the efforts done to prevent an outbreak in a closed community.

Published: June 2024

Background: Multidrug-resistant gram-negative (MDR GN) infections pose a significant threat to pediatric health. One of the treatment options in resource-limited settings is polymyxin-based combination therapy. However, evidence on the safety and clinical effectiveness of polymyxin B in children is scarce. Objectives: This study described the outcomes of mortality, bacteriologic cure and clinical response in pediatric patients with MDR GN infections treated with polymyxin-B-based combination therapy. Adverse drug events (ADE) are likewise described. Methodology: This is a retrospective descriptive study conducted at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) among pediatric inpatients from December 2020 to June 2023 with MDR GN infections treated with polymyxin B (PmB), combined with at least one other antibiotic with gram-negative coverage for at least 48 hours. Frequency and rates of the outcomes were measured and analyzed, in relation to the bacterial groups (Enterobacterales, Acinetobacter spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and combination antibiotic regimens used, i.e., meropenem- and fluoroquinolone-containing regimen (PmB+MEM vs PmB+FQ). Frequency of ADEs were measured. Results: A total of 172 cases in 136 patients were reviewed. The rates for 14-day mortality, failure in bacteriologic cure, and failure in clinical response were 26%, 15%, and 19%, respectively. In Enterobacterales infections, PmB+FQ demonstrated lower rates of mortality, failure in bacteriologic cure, and failure in clinical responses. On the other hand, in Acinetobacter infections, PmB+MEM numerically had lower rates for the same outcomes. The Pseudomonas group had conflicting data on which regimen is numerically more favorable overall. No statistically significant differences were found in the outcomes. ADEs noted were tubulopathy (5 cases), anaphylaxis (2 cases), and neurotoxicity (1 case). Conclusion: Polymyxin-B-based combination therapy appears to be an acceptable treatment option for MDR GN infections in children, especially in settings where novel antibiotics are not accessible. Safety profiles indicate common but manageable adverse effects.

Stunting merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang signifikan, terutama di negara berkembang. Kondisi ini ditandai oleh pertumbuhan fisik yang terhambat pada anak-anak balita, yang dapat mempengaruhi perkembangan kognitif dan kesehatan secara keseluruhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan kejadian stunting pada balita usia 25-59 bulan, dengan fokus pada dua variabel utama: status ekonomi keluarga dan pemberian ASI eksklusif. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah survei analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Data dikumpulkan dari sejumlah balita dalam rentang usia tersebut melalui wawancara dan pengukuran antropometri. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa status ekonomi yang rendah secara signifikan berhubungan dengan peningkatan risiko stunting pada balita. Selain itu, balita yang tidak menerima ASI eksklusif selama enam bulan pertama kehidupan memiliki kemungkinan lebih tinggi untuk mengalami stunting dibandingkan dengan mereka yang menerima ASI eksklusif. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya intervensi gizi dan dukungan ekonomi sebagai strategi utama dalam pencegahan stunting. Upaya peningkatan status ekonomi keluarga dan promosi pemberian ASI eksklusif diharapkan dapat menurunkan prevalensi stunting dan meningkatkan kesehatan serta perkembangan anak secara menyeluruh.
