Of the 13 expert nurses, most were female (11, 84.62%), their mean age was 46.36 ± 10.59 years, eight (61.54%) graduated from public institutions, and eight (61.54%) had a master's degree. The initial version had 106 items, which was reduced to 95 items. The content of four domains (identification, health-disease profile, psychobiological needs, and physical examination) was validated in two rounds about the content with more than 80% of agreement. Two domains (sociodemographic data and health conditions, and personal cares) were validated in the first round with more than 80% of agreement.

The data were collected using WhatsApp messenger through a Google Form. It was determined that, of the nurses, 68.4% received training on radiation safety, all of them took protective measures, 98.2% had knowledge about the effects of radiation, and 93.9% used dosimeters. Nurses stated that they mostly experienced fatigue (94.7%), loss of energy (68.4%), headache (39.3%), hair loss (35.1%), weakness (18%), leg and joint pain (15.1%), thyroid diseases (12.3%), skin discoloration (7.9%), and anemia (7.9%) as the possible effects of radiation during the period they worked in ERCP. The study found that 3.5% of the nurses were diagnosed with cancer while working in the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography unit.

This is a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted using the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey from 2010 to 2018. Weighted multiple logistic regression was applied to assess the independent factors associated with opioid administration in the emergency department. Trends of opioid administration were evaluated using the linear trend analysis. There were an estimated total of 100,925,982 emergency department visits for abdominal pain. Overall, opioid was administered in 16.8% of visits. Age less than 25 years was associated with lower odds of receiving opioids. Patients living in the Northeast had the lower odds of receiving opioids (odds ratio [OR] = 0.82, p = .006) than patients living in the Midwest. Patients in the West had the highest odds of receiving opioids (OR = 1.16, p = .01). Non-Hispanic White patients had higher odds of opioid administration (OR = 1.29, p < .001). Trend analysis demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in opioid administration. From 2010 to 2018, opioid administration has approximately decreased in half.

In recent years, an increasing number of health-tech companies have emerged to offer integrated treatment of IBS via telemedicine. This pilot study explores the patient experience of virtual, multidisciplinary IBS care through a U.S.-based company, Oshi Health. Semistructured interviews were conducted followed by thematic analysis to identify commonalities between patient experience and perspective (Van Manen, 2014). Overarching themes were identified as follows: loss of the grocer, a broken system, and the power of self-trust.

After obtaining demographic information on eligible infants (via parental consent) from the chart, caregivers of 60 infants verbally completed a questionnaire. The questionnaire elicited information about the preferred bottle for feeding, number of parts, washing frequency, washing method, drying method, sterilization frequency, and sterilization method. The χ2 test, and Fisher's exact test when necessary, was performed to examine the relationship between each reported cleaning method (washing, drying, and sterilization) compared with the number of bottle parts (≤3 or ≥4). The number of bottle parts showed no association with bottle cleaning methods (p > .05). Although there were no statistically significant relationships, trends did present that warrant investigation.
