Self administered questionnaire was prepared to assess the psychological impact of COVID-19 lockdown. The data analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study findings revealed that, the adolescents doesn’t have the major psychological impact like Depression (79%), anxiety (78%) and stress (99%), during the Covid-19 Lockdown. The all three domains of Psychological impact (depression, anxiety and stress) having a positive relationships within them. There is significant association found between the psychological impact of COVID-19 lockdown with their age, years of study with level of depression. Exposure to COVID-19 infectionand parents belongs to frontline health worker were got associated with anxiety. There is no significant association found with stress and selected demographic variables. Conclusion: The COVID-19 Lockdown has been found no any major impact of Psychological health among selected adolescents. Hence it need further research on different settings.

Pyelonephritis is the most common serious medical condition seen in pregnancy and may present similarly and may even result from inadequate treatment of urinary tract infections. Thus, it is crucial for providers to be able to distinguish normal versus abnormal findings of both the urinary tract and kidneys, evaluate abnormalities, and treat disease. Methodology: An evaluative research approach with quasi experimental one group pre-test post-test design was used for the study. Total 60 antenatal mother were selected as sample for study by using Non probability convenient sampling technique. Inform consent was taken from antenatal mothers. Pre-test was conducted by using structured knowledge questionnaires & the same day Information Booklet was also administered. After 7 days post test was conducted to assess the gained in knowledge using the same structured knowledge questionnaire to assess post-test knowledge of antenatal mother. The descriptive as well as inferential statistics was used. Result of the study: Result of the study was showed that, there has been increased in knowledge of antenatal mothers after administration of Information Booklet. The calculated 't' value that is 18.85 At 59 degree of freedom was much higher than the tabulated value at 0.05 level of significance that is 1.98. Chi square test was conducted to see the association of posttest knowledge score regarding Urinary Tract Infection and its prevention. There was no significant association of post – test knowledge score with demographic variables. Hence, it is lastly concluded the Information Booklet is effective in improving knowledge of antenatal mother regarding urinary tract infection and its prevention in selected area.

Background: Admission of a patient to an intensive care unit (ICU) can result in tremendous stress to family caregivers not only because of the need to provide physical and emotional support to the sick relative, but also due to the burden of decision-making on behalf of the critically ill person. When acute illness leads to admission to an intensive care unit (ICU), the patient's dependence for assistance increases several-fold and much of this burden falls on the family caregiver. Communication practices of multiple professionals in health care settings can impact patient outcomes. The purpose of this study was to assess caregiver’s satisfaction on patient related communication by healthcare professionals and also to study the difference in the caregiver satisfaction on patient related communication by different category of health care professional. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted among caregivers of patients admitted in the ICUs of a tertiary care hospital. By using convenient sampling technique 100 caregivers were enrolled to the study and the data was collected by self-report techniques by using structured communication satisfaction assessment scale for doctors and nurses. Results: Data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics presented in tables, bar diagrams. Significant difference (p=0.01) was observed in the score obtained for communication satisfaction for doctors 61(60, 63) and nurses 59.5(58, 61).

But the qualitative evidence at the community level remains untouched in high transmission countries. The current paper focuses on the qualitative evidence to explore the behavioral and community health barriers of malaria control interventions at the grassroots level using an inter-continental comparative platform. Therefore, we selected qualitative studies from Asian and African continents which hold major high transmission hotspot areas. Methods: We screened qualitative studies that focused in-depth on the barriers of malaria control measures for meta-synthesis, which were published between 2010 and 2020 in the Asian and African countries. We followed PRISMA guidelines to conduct a literature search on 7 databases and the quality of the articles was assessed by the SRQR guide. We conducted thematic synthesis and quantified the themes to assess the proportion of barriers identified in both continents and highlighted the barriers and recommendations using an explanatory framework. Results: We have selected 8 articles, which studied in-depth perceptions, barriers, and challenges of malaria control interventions in both Asian and African communities. The lack of knowledge on malaria, approaching traditional healers for treatment, and corruption in the distribution of insecticide nets were the major identified barriers in Asian countries, whereas lack of knowledge and noncompliance to drugs due to side effects were the major issues reported in African countries. Conclusion: Meta-synthesis is designed to investigate the common phenomena among diverse settings. In this study, we have attempted to pool the commonalities and contrasts in barriers of malaria control interventions in both countries. The results of the review givefirsthand information to the policymakers for revising strategies and priorities for the malaria elimination goals in both developing countries.","PeriodicalId":197062,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education and Research","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129655320","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}
