Authors:   , Amador Monica
Published: July 2023

Practice Problem: Nurses needed additional wound care support, but formal training was not in the budget at this time. Nurses needed a quick reference guide to help them assess, document, and treat wounds correctly until the hospital could provide adequate training. PICOT: The PICOT question that guided this project is; “When treating wound care patients within a hospital setting (P), how does the implementation of a wound software app. (I) as compared to pre-existing nursing knowledge (C) increase a nurse’s self-reported ability to accurately assess and treat wounds (O) during a 10-week period? (T)” Evidence: Based on a thorough and rigorous review of the synthesized recommendations currently available, a wound software app has the capability of helping the nurses in the hospital who self-identified as having limited wound knowledge. The strength of the body of evidence is extensive, as evidenced by the quality, quantity, and consistency of the studies. Intervention: The intervention used an educational software phone application (app) to assist nurses in referencing information pertaining to wounds. The nurses self-reported their confidence level via a baseline survey and then this data will be compared to a post survey that analyzed their confidence level after utilizing the wound software app. during a 10-week period pre and post-intervention. Outcome: All participants (100%) indicated that they (a) felt comfortable using a wound app on phones or tablets, (b) would like to learn and participate in a training on a wound phone or tablet app, and (c) were interested in using a wound phone or tablet app for wound assessment, documentation, and treatment options. The two-tailed Wilcoxon signed rank test showed significant results based on an alpha value of .05, V = 0.00, z = -2.23, p = .026. Conclusion: In an organization where staff nurses are having difficulty merely understanding the basics of wounds, being able to have a reference guide can prove to be beneficial. Hospital administrators may save on wound related costs

Authors: Amadi G. K. , Obunwo C. C. , Maduelosi N. J.
Published: July 2023

The sedimentation data of nickel phosphate precipitate formed with or without a modifier - sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Na-CMC) biopolymer were studied under controlled conditions of temperature. The main objective was to access the influence of Na-CMC and temperature on On-set Sedimentation Rate (OSR) and Sedimentation Volume Ratio (SVR) of nickel phosphate. Na-CMC at different concentrations (200ppm - 2000ppm) was mixed with constant volume of disodium hydrogen phosphate solution in a graduating measuring cylinder. On mixing the resulting solution with constant volume of nickel chloride solution, a precipitate was formed, stirred for 1 min and placed in the sedimentation measurement device - PreSed Meter. The settling of the precipitate was monitored and recorded at different temperatures (30oC, 40oC and 50oC). Blank sedimentation (0ppm Na-CMC) was also run at various temperatures by adding 10ml of deionized water (instead of 10ml of Na-CMC solution). A plot of precipitate displacement per settling time established a logarithmic curve which flattened with time. Regression analyses of OSR (0.71 ≤ R2 ≥ 0.94) and SVR (0.51 ≤ R2 ≥ 0.93) indicated the dependence of sedimentation on concentration of Na-CMC thus implying chemical interaction between the chemical species.

Published: July 2023

The health insurance in Indonesia is something new for most Indonesians because the term health insurance itself, until now after the pandemic, has not become a word that is commonly understood. The understanding of what is called health insurance is still very varied so it is not surprising, for example, in the past, many people said that the Community Health Maintenance Guarantee (JPKM) in Indonesia was not health insurance but only the name was used without using the word insurance. The Indonesian population is generally a risk taker in terms of health and death. The economic condition of the Indonesian population from independence until now has been able to have a per capita income per year, which has not allowed the Indonesian population to set aside funds to buy health insurance or life insurance. Meanwhile, from the supply side, not many insurance companies offer health insurance products. The Indonesian government has been relatively slow in introducing the concept of insurance to the public through ease of licensing and legal certainty in the insurance business ordeveloping social health insurance for the wider community. This study uses a qualitative method that aims to analyze the relationship between the development of knowledge about the basic history of health insurance related to the basic principles of health insurance in Indonesia which is expected to increase knowledge about the history of health insurance and the basic principles of health insurance. The goal of this research is to find out things that can provide compensation for losses originating from ignorance of health insurance knowledge.
