A quantitative descriptive research approach was used to assess the burden and quality of life (QOL) among caregivers of patients with PD. A total of 72 caregivers were enrolled using total enumerative sampling technique. Data were collected using Zarit burden interview scale and PD Questionnaire-Carer QOL scale. The findings revealed that majority (52.8%) of the caregivers were female. The mean burden score was 26.63 ± 17.09. Majority (45.84%) of them had less burden. Poor QOL was experienced by 25% of caregivers. Positive correlation was found between burden and QOL (r = 0.608; P < 0.001). Significant association was found between selected sociodemographic variables of caregivers such as education, occupation, locality, total number of children, hours spent in caregiving and comorbidities with their level of burden and QOL. Among the clinical variables of patients, activities of daily living were found to have significant association with burden (P = 0.005; P < 0.01) and QOL (P = 0.002; P < 0.01). Knowledge and understanding of caregivers' burden and QOL can provide insights into how nurses can support and empower caregivers to enhance their QOL and that of their care recipients.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"158 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123412786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Menopause refers to that time when woman's periods stop and her ovaries lose their reproductive function. Usually, this occurs between the age group of 45 and 55 years. A descriptive study was undertaken on post-menopausal symptoms among women in the selected urban community, Amritsar. This study included 100 post-menopausal women who were recruited by the convenient sampling technique. Tools for the data collection consisted of socio-demographic profile and the Standardised Women Health Questionnaire related to post-menopausal symptoms. The findings revealed that the mean age of post-menopausal women in the study was 64.13 ± 8.92 years, whereas the mean age at menopause was 47.11 ± 3.66 years. Majority (80%) of post-menopausal women had backache, followed by 76% had loss of appetite, 71% reported restlessness, 68% had difficulty in getting to sleep, and 64% felt miserable and sad. The findings of the study reveal that more than half (52%) of post-menopausal women were not able to cope up with symptoms and 43% agreed to have overall good quality of life. A large proportion of post-menopausal women also reported loss of appetite, loss of interest in things, dizzy spells, headache and poor memory.

The present study aimed to explore the critical and contemporary issues and concerns about theory viewed from both the discipline- and professional-related perspectives. This narrative literature review was done in 2020. English articles in the electronic databases of Medline, Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL and Google Scholar were searched using the keywords: concerns, issues, nursing theory development, nursing theory construction, nursing discipline and nursing profession, and literature was retrieved and screened for eligibility. The date limit considered in the literature search was from 2010 to 2019. In the initial search, a total of 179 studies were retrieved and assessed for eligibility; 163 studies were eliminated due to not meeting the exact criteria set, leaving only 16 studies that were finally included in the content analysis. Content analysis method was used to extract our findings. Four themes (issues) emerged and were grouped into two overarching categories of discipline-related issues/concerns and profession-related issues/concerns. The four themes were (1) philosophical issues, (2) issues with validation of nursing theories, (3) multiplicity of nursing theories and divergent practice paradigms of nursing and (4) integration of theory into professional practice. This paper offers a promising premise to reconcile various concerns arising from nurses' attempts to develop, use and test theories. Identification and discussion of these issues should inform the nursing profession to plan activities to resolve or reduce them systematically.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132122521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study aimed at exploring the perceptions of the nursing students about recovery of persons with mental illness (PwMI). Based on convenience sampling and their willingness, 460 undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate nursing students from 85 colleges of nursing in India who came for Psychiatric Nursing clinical experience at the study institute, which is a tertiary care psychiatric institute in South India between May 2017 and December 2018, took part in the study. A semi-structured, self-administered questionnaire was distributed to the students. The data were analysed using statistical software (SPSS 22 version) and P < 0.05 was considered as the level of significance. Majority (86.5%) of the students were females and UGs (77.6%). Among them, 4% had a family history of mental illness. More than half (54.1%) of the students had experience of taking care of PwMI. Results revealed that more than three-fourth (76.1%) of the students had used the term 'recovery' in the psychiatric setting. Majority of them agreed that early detection of mental illness helps in recovery (90.4%), and patient's self-confidence can be increased by keeping him/her busy and engaging in meaningful activities (91.1%). However, nearly 70% agreed that isolating patients with mental illness from family/friends/support groups can be a barrier to recovery. The study provides the preliminary findings of the perception of nursing students on recovery from mental illness. The study has implications on improving the perception on the recovery of PwMI and the need for educating the public on mental illness.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114572328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prolonged voice use can result in vocal fatigue, causing a weak voice. Nurses are skilled persons to care for the sick or infirm and are considered as Grade-III Professional voice users, for whom a severe voice problem would interfere in their job performance. Hence, our study aimed at understanding the self-perceived vocal fatigue among nurses. A pilot study with convenience sampling was administered on 45 working nurses within the age group of 22–50 years. The participants had an average work experience of 3–4 years. In order to understand the vocal fatigue among participants, Vocal Fatigue Index, questionnaire was administered along with few additional questions. The results showed that 41.17% of the participants had moderate vocal fatigue after voice usage. The study revealed that 3.5% of the participants had severe fatigue where they complained of dryness and weak voice after voice usage. It was identified that 33.12% of the participants had no vocal complaints. This study was conducted to give an insight into the less focused problems of voice use in nurses. The overall result shows that voice is not a significant concern of this profession, but it cannot be ignored as well.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116906168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A high QWL is critical for healthcare organisations to attract and retain qualified, committed and motivated employees. The QWL and nurse turnover are challenging issues for health care organisation because of the consequences and impact on patient care. Low satisfaction of nurses with their quality of working life results in a high intention to leave. The objectives were to assess the level of quality of nursing work life (QNWL), to identify the turn over intention among staff nurses, to find out the association between QNWL, turn over intention and selected work-related characteristics and to determine the correlation between QNWL and turn over intention to leave the job among staff nurses. The research approach used was quantitative and the research design was non-experimental, correlational design. The data were collected from 100 staff nurses selected from private hospitals of South-Western Rajasthan using non-probability purposive sampling technique. The data were collected with the help of Brooks and Anderson's QNWL scale and Anticipated Turnover Scale. The highest percentage (58%) of staff nurses had moderate QNWL, 42% have high QNWL and none of the staff nurse had low QNWL. Majority (60%) of the staff nurses had the intent to leave. There was a significant association between current nursing position and QWNL (P < 0.05). Findings revealed that there was significant association between nursing position, type of unit and intention to leave and there was high significant association between salary, nature of job and intention to leave the job (P < 0.05). There was weak significant positive correlation (r = 0.33) between level of QNWL and level of intention to leave. Work-related characteristics can influence QNWL and intention to leave.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133649910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aetiology is unknown, but some hypotheses suggest a genetic predisposition or an autoimmune reaction for the occurrence of the disorder. Patients with ROHHAD have impairment of respiratory centre in the brain stem which may cause respiratory depression. Children may experience the following symptoms such as rapid-onset obesity, hyperphagia and endocrine abnormalities. Along with these symptoms, children may experience central alveolar hypoventilation, intestinal abnormalities, body temperature irregularities, difficulty with mobility and eye abnormalities. Children should undergo many investigations to rule out the ROHHAD syndrome such as X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography and gene analysis. There is no specific treatment for ROHHAD syndrome. Management of a child with ROHHAD syndrome is a multidisciplinary team approach based on the child's symptoms such as diet, exercise, hormone replacement, behavioural therapy, support with artificial ventilation and medication. Nurses have a vital role in supporting the children with ROHHAD syndrome and their families.","PeriodicalId":186624,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Continuing Nursing Education","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121713272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
