BACKGROUND:
Burnout is spreading to the student population and becoming a threat of global concern. The aim of our research is to determine the prevalence and socio-demographic factors associated with the academic burnout of master students in the Pedagogy of Nursing and Health Technology in Morocco and to discover the impact of these students’ emotional intelligence on their academic burnout.

MATERIALS AND METHOD:
This is a descriptive, cross-sectional analytical study conducted among students in the Pedagogy of Nursing and Health Technology in Morocco out of a total of 108 students of different ages and genders. A questionnaire is used for the collection of data pertaining to students. For each dependent variable, a bivariate analysis was conducted, and the independent variables associated with it were included in a multivariate model.

RESULTS:
The prevalence of academic burnout is estimated at 36.1% among the studied populations (exhaustion 19.4%, cynicism 21.3%, and reduced efficacy 2.8%). 53.7% of students have a high level of emotional intelligence. Multivariate analysis showed that exhaustion is significantly associated with gender (aOR = 3.4, 95% CI = 1.0-11.7, P = 0.04), age (aOR = 0.2, 95% CI = 0.0-0.8, P = 0.02) and cynicism was associated with sports activity (aOR = 2.9, 95% CI = 1.0-8.1, P = 0.038). The emotional intelligence is independent predictor of exhaustion, but it has a positive impact on cynicism (aOR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.0-1.09, P = 0,027) and a negative impact on reduced efficacy (aOR = 0.8, 95% CI = 0.6-0.9, P = 0.01).

CONCLUSION:
The results of this study uncover the prevalence of the phenomenon of burnout among students and the importance of integrating emotional education into health training.

BACKGROUND:
The birth of a premature infant, hospitalization, and separation from the family cause disruption on maternal role adaption. This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effect of participation education on maternal role adaption in mothers of premature infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
This semiexperimental study was conducted with the participation of 129 eligible mothers with premature infants into three groups of 43 (face-to-face education, virtual education, and control). Data collection was done using a checklist measuring adaptation to the maternal role. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistical and multiple linear regression tests at a significance level of P < 0.05.

RESULTS:
The mean age of mothers was 30.8 years, the mean gestational age of infants was 31.7 weeks, the mean birth weight was 1781.4 g, and the most common (84.5%) reason for hospitalization of infants was respiratory distress. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the total score of maternal role adaptation at the time of discharge was significantly different in the two groups of virtual education (134.362 ± 0.925) (P < 0.001) and face-to-face education (132.421 ± 0.928) (P = 0.005) with the control group (128.286 ± 0.924).

CONCLUSION:
The implementation of educational programs is a suitable solution to improve maternal role adaption. Therefore, it is recommended that managers and healthcare planners consider codified and regular educational programs in order to increase the ability of mothers, in order to adapt to the maternal role.

Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:
Objective structured practical examination (OSPE) and traditional practical examination (TPE) are two different methods used to evaluate the theoretical and practical skills among students. The present study assessed the attitude and level of satisfaction of undergraduate nursing students toward OSPE and TPE.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A comparative research design study was conducted at Yenepoya Nursing College in 2022. The samples were 4th year B.Sc nursing students who have experienced both types of examination system and are selected by using the non-probability purposive sampling technique. The selected 102 students are further divided into two groups (51 students in each group) by the chit method: one group for assessing the attitude and level of satisfaction toward OSPE and the other group for assessing the attitude and level of satisfaction toward TPE. The tools used were demographic proforma, structured attitude, and satisfaction scale. The collected categorical data were represented as frequency and percentage, and quantitative data are represented in terms of mean and standard deviation. The Mann–Whitney U test was used to compare the attitude and level of satisfaction between the two groups.

RESULTS:
The majority [32 (65.7%)] of the participants had positive attitude toward the OSPE, and the majority [30 (61.5%)] of the samples had neutral attitude toward TPE. Most of the students [27 (55.3%)] had a good level of satisfaction toward the OSPE. The majority [28 (56.3%)] of the samples had an average level of satisfaction toward TPE. The median of attitude score was 48.32 with 3.35 inter-quartile range (IQR) on OSPE and 44.40 with 3.35 IQR on TPE. The median of level of satisfaction was 50.95 with 1.69 IQR on OSPE and 46.05 with 1.69 IQR on TPE.

CONCLUSIONS:
The study concluded that the students have positive attitude and a good level of satisfaction toward OSPE and neutral attitude and an average level of satisfaction toward TPE. The results provide important implications for choosing a different examination strategy and increasing the standard for the educational and evaluation systems.

Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:
The health of women and girls is of particular concern because, in many societies, they are disadvantaged by discrimination rooted in sociocultural factors that prevent them from benefiting from quality health services and attaining the best possible level of health. Muslim women face a number of unique health challenges, including discrimination, poverty, and lack of access to healthcare. These challenges can lead to a number of health problems, including mental health issues, chronic diseases, and infectious diseases.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A descriptive research was conducted among the Muslim women in Dakshina Kannada among n = 675 participants drawn using two-stage stratified random sampling through interview method using semistructured questionnaire.

RESULTS:
The majority of the participants reported musculoskeletal and noncommunicable diseases. A majority of them resorted to modern medicine and there was a statistically significant association found with respect to spending on health problems (χ2
= 29.933, P
< 0.001).

CONCLUSION:
The study reveals that women had a high incidence of musculoskeletal problems, and noncommunicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease, carcinoma, kidney, diabetes, and liver problems. They preferred allopathic medicine and sought treatment from local public health centers and private clinics since the majority of them were homemakers.

Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:
Tobacco use remains a significant global health challenge, contributing to 8 million annual deaths and potentially reaching 1 billion deaths in the 21st century. Despite taking efforts like India’s National Tobacco Control Program, the country faces a persistent 39% tobacco use prevalence, particularly in low-income communities like those from Madanpur Khadar, Delhi. This study explores the effectiveness of behavior modification therapy in addressing this challenge.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
In a community-based trial, 400 adult tobacco users from Madanpur Khadar were enrolled and randomization and allocation concealment were done (CTRI no.: CTRI/2021/06/034298). Participants were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups during the study period of 18 months. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, smoking behaviors, and motivation levels were collected. The intervention included behavior modification therapy, while the control group received brief advice. Motivation levels were assessed using the contemplation ladder, and carbon monoxide levels were measured with piCO + Smokerlyzer. The study adhered to ethical considerations and obtained approval from Jamia Hamdard’s Institutional Ethical Committee.

RESULTS:
Sociodemographic characteristics revealed a predominantly male (88%) population, aged above 30 years (68.5%), with lower middle class representation (51%). The intervention group exhibited a 7% smoking cessation rate, which is significantly higher than the control group (1%). piCO+ Smokerlyzer confirmed a 41.7% reduction in carbon monoxide levels among participants in the intervention group. High motivation levels correlated with successful quitting, with a 6.5 times higher odds ratio for highly motivated individuals compared to low or moderately motivated ones.

CONCLUSIONS:
The study highlights the cost-effective impact of behavior modification therapy in promoting tobacco cessation, particularly in resource-constrained settings. The significant association between motivation levels and quitting underscores the importance of tailored interventions in public health initiatives aimed at reducing tobacco use.

Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:
Knowledge of neonatal danger signs is crucial for timely care-seeking and improved newborn survival. This study assessed this knowledge among pregnant women in rural western Gujarat.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A mixed methods study was conducted among 390 pregnant women selected through a two-stage sampling procedure. Quantitative data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Qualitative data were gathered via in-depth interviews with 20 purposively sampled women. Logistic regression identified determinants of knowledge. Thematic analysis was done for qualitative data.

RESULTS:
The majority of women were young (220, 56.5% ≤25 years), literate (333, 85%), and from rural backgrounds (320, 82%). Overall, 232 (59.5%) knew about cord care, and 301 (77.2%) correctly identified breastfeeding initiation time. Recognition of key danger signs such as fever (311, 79.7%), vomiting (292, 74.8%), and jaundice (275, 70.5%) was high, but only 70 (18%) identified chest in-drawing. Multiparity (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 1.4, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.2–3.9), lower age (AOR: 3.8, 95% CI: 2.4–5.8), education (AOR: 3.1, 95% CI: 1.5–6.4), inadequate counseling (AOR: 2.2, 95% CI: 1.82–5.190), and normative delivery (AOR: 2.4, 95% CI: 1.16–5.006) were associated with poor knowledge. Qualitative findings revealed reliance on informal sources, family elders, and financial constraints as key barriers along with limited comprehension of some danger signs.

CONCLUSION:
Focused interventions via health workers, family members, and community platforms are needed to increase neonatal danger signs awareness among vulnerable women in the region to enable timely care-seeking.

Published: July 2024

BACKGROUND:
Nursing education faces many challenges that must be identified and removed to improve nursing education and promote the quality of nursing care. Identifying the challenges of nursing education helps to solve or correct the weaknesses and achieve educational goals, which ultimately help to train skilled professionals capable of providing higher quality care to patients. The present study was conducted with the aim of explaining the experiences of nursing tutors in regard to the process of challenge formation in nursing education in Iran.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
This is a qualitative study with a grounded theory approach that was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, which took about 9 months, 18 experienced nursing tutors with managerial positions were selected by purposeful sampling from universities across the country. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, field notes, observation, and memos. Data analysis was done by Corbin and Strauss method through MAXQDA software version 10. In the next step, using the method of Walker and Avant (2011), concepts and statements were gathered within a whole and a model was presented.

RESULTS:
Twelve male university tutors and six female tutors participated in this study. The mean age of the participants was 45.38 ± 2.1 years, and their mean work experience was 18.66 ± 3.8 years. The findings showed that the challenges of nursing education could be categorized into three categories (defective educational cycle, efforts to restore the educational structure, and learning is a member of educational family), and 12 subcategories. After analyzing the data, trying to provide a need-based education was determined to be the central theme of this study. The components of model developed in this study were presented in the three axes of improving the tutor’s teaching skills, managing the situation and educational facilities, and facilitating student’s participation in the education process and decision-making.

CONCLUSION:
Identifying barriers and facilitators of need-based education in health policy making can enable nurses to build a better future for their nursing position. To provide need-based education, it is necessary to create a suitable ground and platform for proper education. Such platform and ground are a necessity of educational, therapeutic, and community environments. To achieve this goal, it is recommended to improve the professional capabilities of tutors and support educational organizations.

Utility of the United Kingdom National Health Services Breast Screening Program Diagnostic Protocol in Fine-needle Aspiration Cytology with Cell Block Preparation in Cases of Palpable Breast Lumps: A Reliable, Fast, and Accurate Diagnostic Method for the Assessment of Breast Lumps with Histopathologic Correlation
Authors: Desai Pratik Bharatbhai , Desai Killol Nathubhai , Panchal Nirav Sureshbhai 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
A palpable breast lump is a common diagnostic problem for clinicians and surgeons. Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has many advantages such as less cost, less sample processing time, less pain, less chance of hematoma, and less discomfort. FNAC with cell block preparation further increased both sensitivity and specificity by nearly 100%. With the cell block preparation, we can also use newer tests like estrogen receptor–progesterone receptor–human epidermal growth factor receptor 2.

Aims:
The aim of this study was to derive conclusions about the correlation, including sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values (NPVs), and the diagnostic accuracy of FNAC, with or without cell blocks, compared to the final histopathology in cases of palpable breast masses.

Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional prospective study was conducted after getting approval from the Human Ethics Research Committee from January 2018 to December 2019, which included 65 patients. Patients diagnosed clinically for breast lumps who underwent diagnostic FNAC with cell block, followed by a histopathological examination at our hospital, were included in the study.

Results:
FNAC without cell block sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), NPV, efficiency rate, and diagnostic accuracy are 91.3%, 100%, 100%, 90.1%, 86.2%, and 96.5%, respectively. FNAC with cell block sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, efficiency rate, and diagnostic accuracy are all 100%. All of our results beat the standard estimate.

Conclusions:
Fine-needle aspiration cytology is a patient-friendly, easy, reliable, repeatable, and simple diagnostic test. Whenever it is combined with cell block preparation, improves the accuracy of FNAC diagnosis which is more accurate and comparable to golden-standard biopsy with histopathology examination.

Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Colposcopy is important for triaging any abnormal cervical screening test. Scarcity of trained colposcopists and colposcopy centers is a big hurdle to screening programs in low- and middle-income countries.

Objectives of the Study:
The objective was to assess the performance of the artificial intelligence incorporated into the mobile optical device technologies (ODT) Enhanced Visual Assessment (EVA visual check) against physician colposcopic diagnosis and the gold standard of histopathology.

Materials and Methods:
It was a cross-sectional observational study conducted on women referred to a colposcopy clinic following an abnormal screening test. Colposcopic examination was performed by colposcopists using the MobileODT EVA system. Physician’s impression and Visual Check analysis were compared with the final histopathological analysis or cytology. Cases with normal cytology and normal colposcopy did not undergo biopsy, and these were considered normal.

Results:
A total of 2050 women were screened, and 147 screen-positive women were recruited in the study. EVA Visual Check had a sensitivity of 86.8% (75–95), specificity of 28.7% (20–39), positive predictive value (PPV) of 40.7% (32–50), negative predictive value (NPV) of 79.4% (62–91), and diagnostic accuracy of 49.7% (41–58) for diagnosing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1+ lesions. EVA Visual Check has a sensitivity of 89.3% (72–98), specificity of 26.1% (18–35), PPV of 22.1% (15–31), NPV of 91.2% (76–98), and diagnostic accuracy of 38.1% (30–46) for CIN 2+ lesions.

Conclusion:
MobileODT EVA colposcope with AI has sensitivity comparable to physician’s diagnosis, whereas specificity, PPV, and NPV were less than that of physician’s diagnosis. It could prove valuable for triage of screen-positive women for further management.

Published: July 2024

Objective:
The objective is to evaluate dental auxiliaries’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices for the prevention of noma disease.

Materials and Methods:
This was a cross-sectional study conducted over 6 months. After obtaining ethical clearance from the Sokoto and Zamfara State Ministries of Health, all consenting dental assistant staff who met the selection criteria were administered a validated questionnaire containing 17 questions assessing the respondents’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices. They were recruited using a self-administered questionnaire. The overall score was classified as “low” if the average score was 50% or less (50% or less), satisfactory (51%–69%), or good (70% or more). Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 20 software.

Results:
A total of 149 respondents returned the questionnaire, of which 80 (53.7%) were men and 69 (46.3%) were women. The mean ± standard deviation age of respondents was 27.37 ± 7.00 years, with a range of 20–58 years. The age of respondents was divided into four groups, and the majority of 112 respondents (75.2%) were in their 30s. The majority of respondents, 141 (94.6%), know about the prevention of noma disease. The total respondent score was 1827 points (72.1%), which was evaluated as “good.”

Conclusion:
Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of dental auxiliaries in the field of noma prevention are good. Dental auxiliaries, if supervised and appropriately trained, can play a role in noma prevention by actively participating in and disseminating information on specific preventive measures such as scaling and polishing.
