This study was conducted to determine the knowledge and practices on diabetic care and associated factors among the caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus attending the follow-up clinic at Jimma Medical Center, Southwest Ethiopia. \u0000Methods: Institution-based prospective cross-sectional study was conducted from July 10 to October 10, 2022. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using statistical packages for social sciences software Version 25.0. Bivariate and stepwise multivariate analysis was performed to test associations between the dependent and independent variables. \u0000Results: One hundred fifty-eight caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus participated in the study; over half of the participants (93, 58.9%) were females. Over half of caregivers have a poor level of knowledge (56.3%) and practice (58.6%) about diabetes cares. Participants residing in the urban area are found to have better knowledge (p<0.001; 95%CI:1.81-6.86), whereas being female caregiver (p=0.03; 95%CI:1.04-4.22), attending diabetic education sessions (p=0.035; 95%CI:1.17-79.66) and, those who had good diabetes knowledge (p=0.04; 95%CI:1.03-4.04 ) were found to have a better practice. \u0000Conclusion: The knowledge and practices of caregivers regarding diabetic care among caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus were found to be low. Structured diabetes care education should be given to all caregivers to improve their knowledge and practices.","PeriodicalId":291906,"journal":{"name":"Ethiopian Journal of Pediatrics and Child Health","volume":"45 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139449363","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}

Heart failure/HF is a progressive clinical and pathophysiological condition caused by cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular abnormalities. The study aimed to assess compassionate care among children with chronic HF at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital. \u0000Methods: This observational cross-sectional study employed an Amharic 12-item Schwartz Center Compassionate Scale (SCCS) to assess compassionate care. Children aged 7years and above were included in the study. Logistic regression models were used to assess predictors. \u0000Results: The study included 155 chronic HF subjects, females 56.1% (87). Majority of the re-spondents,75.5% (117), lived in an urban setting within 100-kilometers from health facility, 58.7% (91). The mean age at diagnosis and duration of follow-up was 5.2±3.8years and 5±3.5years, respectively. Congenital heart diseases, 55.5% (86) and rheumatic heart disease, 36.1% (56) were common causes for chronic HF. Successful compassionate care was reported in 25.2% (39) (95% CI: 18.5-32.8) of study subjects. Study subjects who lived within 100-kilometers from the follow up health facility had two times higher odds of reporting successful compassionate care, [AOR: 2.24, 95% CI: 1.06-4.75, P 0.035)] \u0000Conclusion: In this study, only one fourth of study subjects with chronic heart failure had received compassionate care. Distance from the follow up health facility predicted successful com-passionate care. Modalities to improve access including decentralization of clinical services for children with chronic heart failure and further mixed studies are recommended to assess how distance from a health facility relate to compassionate care.","PeriodicalId":291906,"journal":{"name":"Ethiopian Journal of Pediatrics and Child Health","volume":"49 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139450039","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}

However, studies in Ethiopia show low competency among health professionals. Thus, we assessed the competency of residents and nurses working in a tertiary hospital. \u0000Methods: From June to September 2022, 181 pediatrics and child health department residents and nurses participated in a pretested questionnaire and MDI technique practice. The knowledge score for residents and nurses was determined based on correct answers to questions from 0 to 6 for residents and 0 to 5 for nurses. Good knowledge was defined as a score of 80–100%, moderate knowledge from 60–79%, and poor knowledge from <60% of the total score. The good practice was ≥7 from 11 and all essential steps, while the poor practice was <7 of the total score and skipped essential steps. The chi-square or Fisher exact test was employed to compare groups as appropriate. The 95% confidence interval and a p-value of 0.05 were used to determine statistical significance. . \u0000Results: Of the 181 study participants, 103 (56.9%) were residents. The participants' mean age was 32. MDI technique knowledge was poor for more than half of the residents (52.4%) and 46.4% of the nurses. Twenty-six (14.4%) of participants practiced the MDI technique steps, scoring 7 out of 11 steps. However, only 3.3% practiced the technique correctly. Whereas only 5.8% of residents and 0% of nurses practiced the essential steps of the MDI technique. When using a new inhaler drug, nearly half of the participants (47%) did not assess the patients' practice. \u0000Conclusion: Healthcare professionals' competency in performing the MDI technique is low. Appropriate training programs are needed to enhance their ability to use inhaled devices and ensure successful drug delivery.","PeriodicalId":291906,"journal":{"name":"Ethiopian Journal of Pediatrics and Child Health","volume":"19 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139450452","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}

Because they are not part of the decisions their best interests may be violated. This study is aimed to determine the prevalence, clinical outcomes, and factors associated with discharge against medical advice. \u0000Methods: We cross-sectionally described 123 admissions in which caretakers decided to discharge against medical advice. A mixed data collection method from the patient's charts and telephone interviews was employed. A pretested semi-structured questionnaire tool was used. The data was manually cleaned and analyzed using SPSS software version 25, USA. The frequency and percentage of categorical data were calculated, as well as the mean, median, SD, and IQR of the continuous variable. A multivariate regression analysis was performed, with an adjusted odds ratio of 95% CI and a statistical significance of 0.05. \u0000Results: Hospital prevalence of DAMA was 1.42%. The median age was 11(±59) months—eighty-one percent of the caretakers signed before leaving the hospital. The median hospitalization was 7 days (IQR=13 days). The majority of the caretakers were discharged during working hours (71%). Discharge was registered in all seasons: winter (31%), spring (28%), summer (23%), and autumn (18 %). Hemato-oncologic conditions, infectious, and neonatal problems were common. Most of the cases were reported from pediatric emergency and neonatology wards. Patients’ poor clinical response and the caretaker's financial constraints were the main reasons for signing DAMA. Death was significant when the DAMA occurred in fast-improving cases and infants; (AOR=6.909, 95% CI-2.191-21.782), and AOR=1.3, 95% CI -0.48-3.3) respectively. \u0000Conclusion: DAMA in the Pediatric wards of Tikur-Anbessa Specialized Hospital was similar to the reported data elsewhere.
