Women’s awareness of urinary incontinence
Authors: Juszczak Katarzyna , Słomiana-Amjedullah Tatiana , Koźlak Violetta , Cebulska Violetta
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Urinary incontinence consists in an involuntary leakage of urine from the urethra. It affects both women and men, but women get ill more often. Although the morbidity peak falls on perimenopausal age, urinary incontinence can occur at any age. The highest percentage of patients is the elderly population.

Aim. Assessment of women’s awareness of urinary incontinence.

Materiala and methods. The group of study participants comprised 130 women aged between 18 and 89. The tool used in the study was the authors’ own questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of 31 questions, including, among others, demographic questions about age, marital status, education, occupational situation, number of births, number of children as well as definitions, risk factors, prevention and treatment of urinary incontinence.

Results. The women subjected to the study self-assessed their state of knowledge on urinary incontinence. The study showed that 37 people (28.5%) assessed their state of knowledge as good, 42 people (32.3%) as sufficient and 51 (39.2%) as insufficient. For 56.15% (n=73) of the surveyed women, the most common source of knowledge about urinary incontinence was non-professional literature (magazines and newspapers). The study showed a statistically significant relationship between knowledge of urinary incontinence and education (Chi square X2=24.472; p≤0.0004). People with higher education had a better knowledge about urinary incontinence.

Conclusions. The level of knowledge of the research participants about urinary incontinence is insufficient. A sense of shame and lack of time are the main reasons for low reporting of the UI problem to the doctor or nurse. There is a need to run an educational campaign to make the public aware of treatment options and IU prevention.

Authors: Babik Kinga , Majda Anna , Zalewska-Puchała Joanna , Bodys-Cupak Iwona
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Religiousness supports undertaking positive health behaviors.

Aim. Showing the correlation between the level of religiosity and selected pro-health and risky behaviors among the elderly people.

Material and methods. As research tools the original questionnaire and Scale of Individual Religion by A. Latała and P. Socha were used. The survey involved 120 participants. Analysis included 64 participants, who were all over 65 years old. U Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman’s rank order correlation were used. The level of significance p<0.05 was assumed in the analysis.

Results. The studied group of elderly Roman Catholic people was mostly characterized by a high level of religiosity and pro-health behaviors. Correlation between pro-health and risky behaviors of the respondents and their religiosity turned out to be insignificant. However, people characterized by slightly higher level of religiosity declared behaviors such as: not smoking cigarettes, not drinking alcohol, consuming up to three main meals a day, maintain a healthy body weight, not eating between meals, regular doctor and dentist visits, spending little time in front of the TV and computer, being active, using sunscreen, doing self-examination of breasts or testicles once a month and falling asleep at fixed times.

Conclusions. The analyses did not confirm that religiosity is an important determinant of pro-health and risky behaviours of the elderly.

Authors: Kadlčková Zuzana , Tomagová Martina
Published: November 2023

Aim. To identify and compare research results aimed at determining the incidence of aggression of hospitalized patients towards nurses using Violence and Aggression of Patients Scale (VAPS) and the Perceptions of Prevalence of Aggression Scale (POPAS) measuring tools.

Material and methods. The sample consisted of 1012 nurses from selected healthcare settings in the Czech Republic. Data was collected from June to November 2018.

Identification of the occurrence of aggression of hospitalized patients towards nurses was performed using two measuring tools: POPAS and VAPS. Both tools describe specific forms of aggressive behaviour.

Results. We identified a very high incidence of aggression of hospitalized patients towards nurses. As much as 97% of respondents encountered various manifestations and forms of aggression from patients, 61.96% of respondents encountered physical aggression (spitting, biting, scratching, pinching), and 76.4% experienced verbal aggression. A significant difference was identified between results obtained with POPAS and VAPS.

Conclusions. With the use of two reliable measuring tools, we identified different experiences with aggression of hospitalized patients towards nurses in the same set of respondents, which points to the issue of comparing results of the incidence patient aggression towards nurses identified by different measuring tools.

Aim. Assessing the determinants of nurse ethical behavior in palliative care.

Material and methods. The study material was collected from 101 nurses working in the palliative care system. The study used the method of diagnostic survey by means of questionnaire technique. The research tool was the author’s survey questionnaire consisting of 26 questions. Non-parametric tests were used in data analysis: Pearson’s χ2 independence test, Mann-Whitney test and Kruskal-Wallis test. The significance level of p<0.05 was assumed. Calculations were performed with SPSS 20 program.

Results. According to 69.3% of nurses, the character and personality of the nurse should be considered as the main determinant of ethical conduct in nursing work. In the opinion of 44.6%, they are the qualifications and professional competence that influence ethical conduct in the work of a nurse.

Conclusions. The mean knowledge of the code of professional ethics of nurses in the study group was high, as it was 5.03 points (SD=0.64). Nurses and nurse practitioners who had higher knowledge of the principles of the code of professional ethics for nurses were more likely to be guided by ethical principles in their work.

Authors: Šimec Mateja , Krsnik Sabina , Erjavec Karmen
Published: November 2023

Introduction. An important factor in the implementation of innovations such as integrative clinical care pathways (ICPs) is supportive communication from department and hospital management. ICPs have been introduced into the clinical environment as a tool to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of health services.

Aim. The study aimed to assess communication of nurses working in three ICPs and department heads and hospital managers in a typical Slovenian hospital and to identify the main reasons for this communication using a mixed methods approach.

Material and methods. The cross-sectional study used a mixed descriptive quantitative method with a survey and a qualitative method with a focus group interviews of nurses working in ICPs for chronic kidney disease, stroke and total hip arthroplasty in a typical Slovenian hospital.

Result and conclusion. The results showed that communication plays an important role in the implementation of ICPs and that nurses communicate worse with hospital managers than with department heads, regardless of age, gender, education and ICPs. The main reasons for poor communication in the implementation of ICPs are communication-related (weak exchange of information, lack of appropriate communication channels, one-sided and authoritative communication on the part of hospital managers) and organisational (lack of staff, disorganisation of nursing staff).

Authors: Sikorová Lucie , Strakošová Tereza
Published: November 2023

Aim. The study aimed to identify the presence of posttraumatic growth in children and adolescents with the diabetes mellitus type I and to find out relations with coping strategies.

Material and methods. The research group was formed by 102 children aged 12-18 years with diabetes mellitus type I. The research design was a cross-sectional study. The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory for Children (PTGI-C) and the Ways of Coping Questionnaire (WCQ) were used for data collection.

Results. The ways of coping with stress are related to the subsequent posttraumatic growth in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. The strongest correlation was found between posttraumatic growth and coping strategies Seeking Social Support and Planful Problem-Solving. The correlation between posttraumatic growth and coping strategy Escape-Avoidance has not been identified. However, this strategy was most often used by adolescents. There was no difference in the level of posttraumatic growth with respect to sex of the respondents and their age, except for the area of Personal Strength and area of Spiritual Change.

Conclusions. The facilitation of effective coping strategies by a nurse can have a positive effect on the posttraumatic growth of children and adolescents with diabetes.

Authors: Laznik Gorazd , Reisp Matej
Published: November 2023

Aim. The purpose of the study is to identify the connection between high blood pressure and PWV in patients with AH and determine if AH is a risk factor that accelerates the development of atherosclerosis.

Material and methods. With quantitative research method we investigated, explained, and defi ned the eff ects of arterial hypertension with the PWV increase‐rate observed across diff erent age groups of patients who already have AH. Data from patients’ medical records from the At Cor Sphygmocor operating system were extracted.

Results. The sample included 191 patients with AH. PWV values were normal in 72% of patients with optimal blood pressure (BP), 60% of patients with normal BP had increased PWV in high normal BP and grade 1 AH were 53% of increased PWV, 53% of normal PWV in grade 2 AH, increased in 94% in grade 3 AH, and 50% of patients had increased PWV values in isolated systolic AH.

Conclusions. The research results undoubtedly show the importance of arterial hypertension for the increase in pulse wave velocity, with the clearest correlation at grade 3 AH and in the age groups between 30 and 49 years. On average, the PWV value in hypertensive patients rose by 8%, which represents an increased risk of cardiovascular complications.

Authors: Zurzycka Patrycja , Wojtas Katarzyna , Musiał Zofia , Puto Grażyna , Czyżowicz Katarzyna
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Access to Internet resources has resulted in changes in the perception of principles related to interpersonal communication, privacy and sharing of personal information. Medical personnel may use data obtained from the Internet to supplement information gathered during the patient interview or to reveal a different picture of the patient’s health status. In PTG, it is crucial to assess the motivation for such an action, respect the patient’s rights and obtain his consent, comply with the rules of medical ethics, as well as assess the usefulness of such an action for the therapeutic process. There are questions as to whether the information provided is true, and to what extent it is altered by cognitive or mood disorders.

Aim. The aim is to present selected issues related to the search for information about patients on the Internet by the therapeutic team.

Method. Analysis of research and scientific studies in the Medline and PubMed databases.

Summary. Scientific studies confirming the occurrence of PTG phenomenon, refer to the issue of ethical principles, obtaining patient’s consent, reliability of recorded data and true identity of patients, inclusion of obtained information in their medical records and its importance in shaping the relationship between the patient and the therapeutic team.

Authors: Sułek Jolanta Ewa
Published: November 2023

Aim. This article is an attempt to describe the case and nursing problems of a sixteen-year-old female patient of Tytus Chałubiński Hospital in Zakopane who was admitted to the paediatric ward on 22nd of August 2019 after being struck by lightning during a hike to Giewont.

Material and methods. The author has also made an attempt to determine problems during the patient’s hospitalization after the accident on the basis of Evidence Base Nursing – a nursing practice based on scientific research.

Results. The phenomenon of a lightning strike leads to numerous negative health effects in the victim. These include direct consequences, such as vital functions abnormalities, injuries to multiple organs, burns, and late complications, such as persistent neurological disorders, consequences of injuries to multiple organs and mental and emotional disorders resulting from direct threat to one’s life and participation in a traumatic event. This paper attempts to describe an event of a teenager being struck by lightning and its medical consequences.

Conclusions. 1. It seems expedient to develop and make available, e.g. in the form of computer programmes, standards for nursing patients after lightning strikes, which would take into account mass accidents. 2. It is necessary to develop and promote a model for hospital organisation of psychological assistance to patients (including adolescents) involved in a mass accident. It should also take into consideration later consequences of traumatic events.

Authors: Latos Maciej , Zawadka Mateusz , Kosson Dariusz
Published: November 2023

Aim. The aim of the study was to conduct a retrospective analysis of cannulations done under ultrasound guidance by the Vascular Access and Infusion Team using the Seldinger technique.

Material and methods. This observational study was retrospective in nature. Analysis was carried out of 82 cannulation charts reporting procedures from March to August 2022 at the University Clinical Centre of the Medical University of Warsaw.

Results. Midline access was gained in 86 patients with a success rate of 95.3% (n=82). Cannulation by nurses was performed in 93% (n=80) of the patients. The procedure required an average of 1.62 attempts. The most frequently cannulated veins were the basilic (72%, n=59) and brachial (14.6%, n=12) ones. MC removal in 40.2% (n=33) of the cases was due to the termination of intravenous therapy, and in 23.4% (n=19) was caused by complications related to infusion management.

Conclusions. Implantation of midline catheters in patients, including those with difficult intravenous access, can be done eff ectively with a minimum number of cannulation attempts. Maintaining midline catheters for the entire duration of therapy is challenging due to potential complications and requires rigorous care during their use. A detailed analysis of possible complications distinguishing between diff erent types of complications and continuous improvement of observation protocols and appropriate management is advisable. It is also advisable to plan and conduct an observational study in the area of retrospective analysis.

Published: December 2023

Stem cells are unspecialized cells that differentiate into more specialized cells for various tissues in the human body. Stem cells have the characteristics and ability to become themselves by performing various mitoses and differentiating different cells. Stem cells also have great potential for tissue regeneration. Detection and isolation of specific cells is very important in understanding biological processes such as development, aging, regeneration, and cell pathogenesis. Therefore, stem cells are present as an invaluable therapeutic option. Before stem cells can be applied, it is important to know the characteristics of the specific function cells or phenotypic markers. Isolation and characteristics of stem cells on culture morphology or immunotaining on specific markers. Immunohistochemistry can provide a general description of the expression of markers in a cell under certain conditions. Surface markers are the basis for identifying the characteristics and isolation of stem cells. The basic characteristics of stem cells are one that influences the outcome of the therapy to be carried out. The presence of marker cell surface expressions can also be a differentiator in searching for the origin of the stem cells used6. MSC culture method was performed with DMEM + 5% HPL. UC-MSCs with phenotype differentiation were found to be CD73+, CD90+, CD105+, Lin- while the parameters found were IL-6, SDF-1, BDNF, FGF, NGF, IL-12p70, IL-23, IL-18, IL-10 , VEGF, EGF, IL-17A, IFN-, IL-1β, PDGF, MCP-1.The results obtained are in accordance with the standard content of UC-MSC cells which can be continued as cell research.
Reconstruction of the pulmonary vascular bed at the stages of hemodynamic correction in patients with functionally single ventricle
Authors: Avramenko A. A. , Svechkov N. A. , Khokhlunov S. M.
Published: December 2023

The OBJECTIVE was to study the prevalence and nature of congenital and acquired anatomical features of the pulmonary vascular bed in patients with single ventricle and to evaluate their impact on staged hemodynamic correction.

METHODS AND MATERIALS. The study was a retrospective cohort study based on the study of the experience of surgical treatment of patients with a single ventricle from 2005 to 2022. 208 patients, 95 females and 113 males met the inclusion criteria. Depending on the type of the first stage of correction, all patients were divided into three groups: 1 – patients after the Norwood operation (n=84), 2 – patients after the isolated systemic-to-pulmonary shunts (n=74), 3 – patients after pulmonary artery band or those who did not need the first stage of surgical treatment (n=50).

RESULTS. From all patients who survived the Stage-I (158 patients), 47 (30 %) patients underwent 72 reconstructive interventions on the pulmonary arteries: 8 % – before Stage-II, 46 % – at Stage-II, 17 % – between stages II and III, 11 % – at Stage-III and 18 % – after Stage-III. When comparing freedom from stenosis of the pulmonary arteries, statistically significant differences were found between groups of patients (p=0.005), with the least freedom from stenosis in group 1 (after the Norwood operation) and the greatest freedom from stenosis in group 3 (after pulmonary artery band or without first stage of correction).

CONCLUSIONS. Patients with a functionally single ventricle are at risk of developing pulmonary artery stenosis throughout the entire period of staged hemodynamic correction and after its completion. The identified narrowing needs immediate correction, since a long-term existing narrowing can lead to hypoplasia of the pulmonary vascular bed and become an obstacle to the timely Fontan completion. More extensive use of tomographic imaging techniques is recommended in order to fully assess the degree of narrowing.

The OBJECTIVE of the research was to study the patency of coronary shunts from the radial artery in the presence of morphological changes in its wall in the period from 40 to 52 months after surgery.

METHODS AND MATERIALS. Fragments of 110 radial arteries taken from 103 patients for coronary artery bypass grafting in the period from 2018 to 2021 were subjected to histological examination. To assess the functional state of the shunts in the period from 40 to 52 months after surgery, computed tomography of the coronary arteries (CTCA) with contrast was performed in 66 patients.

RESULTS. Histological examination revealed such changes in the radial artery wall as edema of one layer of the artery or all three layers, proliferation of the subendothelial layer of the inner coat, intimal fibrosis, partial obstruction of the artery lumen by a massive accumulation of agglutinated erythrocytes, as well as occlusion of the radial artery. Occlusion of the shunt from the radial artery in the period of 41–42 months was detected in 2 patients who underwent computed tomography of the coronary arteries.

CONCLUSION. Statistical analysis of the obtained results revealed that the presence of such morphological changes in the radial artery wall as alteration, exudation and proliferation does not statistically significantly affect the timing of adequate functioning of the shunt.
