Gennimatas between January 2021 and December 2023. Data were collected using the Richards Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ). Sensory stimuli, including noise, light, nursing activities, and invasive procedures, were reduced during the night to improve patients sleep. Measures to reduce light included implementing special lighting during nursing tasks and using bedside lamps during care. Noise reduction strategies involved closing doors, minimizing monitor alarms, and discouraging staff from speaking near patient beds. Grouping patient care activities was also promoted to limit sleep disturbances. Results:Patients in the intervention group showed improved sleep quality compared to the control group, with a significant overall RCSQ score (p<0.05). Gender and age did not significantly affect sleep quality. However, hospital stay duration differed between groups, with the control group experiencing shorter stays. A negative correlation was observed between the duration of hospitalization and sleep quality, with longer stays linked to lower RCSQ scores. Additionally, extended mechanical ventilation was associated with poorer sleep quality.\u0000Conclusion: Patients in the ICU often exhibit abnormal levels of alertness, poor quality of daytime sleep, disrupted nighttime sleep, and sleep patterns that lack both slow-wave and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Gaining a deeper understanding of the role circadian rhythms play in managing critical illness could pave the way for future chronotherapeutic strategies, enhancing clinical outcomes and promoting recovery for patients.\u0000Keywords: Intensive care unit, sleep quality, circadian rhythm","PeriodicalId":501260,"journal":{"name":"medRxiv - Nursing","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142248097","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}

Specifically, it explores how the MHTP aligns with AACN core competencies and evaluates the impact of these practical experiences on nursing students competencies and readiness.\u0000Background: A well-prepared nursing workforce is crucial for addressing the healthcare needs of rural, underserved, and Indigenous communities in the United States. Montana's Indigenous communities face significant systemic economic and social challenges that limit access to healthcare services and contribute to a disproportionate disease burden. Over the past two years, the MHTP at a land grant university in the western U.S. conducted preschool health screening clinics for children aged 0-5 at four partner Tribal nations in Montana.\u0000Design: This qualitative study captures and analyzes the experiences and perceptions of undergraduate nursing students participating in the MHTP at a land grant university in the western U.S. Data were collected through post-MHTP clinic surveys administered through Qualtrics, after the completion of each 2-3 day MHTP clinic.\u0000Methods: A total of 160 nursing undergraduate nursing students completed post-clinical surveys between September 2022 and May 2024. Using inductive and deductive coding approaches, survey responses were analyzed qualitatively to identify themes related to rural healthcare, culturally responsive care, exposure to diverse communities, and professional growth.\u0000Results: The MHTP experience was found to be valuable by 95% of students. Four main themes emerged: insight into rural healthcare, practicing culturally responsive care, exposure to diverse communities, and professional growth. American Indian/Alaska Native student perspectives highlighted the need for culturally reflective opportunities for all students. The MHTP effectively aligned with AACN competencies, enhancing skills in patient-centered care, cultural competence and humility, interprofessional collaboration, and systems-based practice.\u0000Conclusion: The MHTP represents a contemporary and practical model in nursing education by integrating mobile, immersive, and patient-focused clinical experiences, while also providing students an opportunity to engage with high priority communities. Students valued working with rural and Indigenous populations, recognizing the critical need for culturally responsive care and professional development. This study contributes to the limited literature on rural and Tribal clinical placements, highlighting the importance of balancing simulation with direct clinical practice. The MHTP effectively equips nursing students to navigate the complexities of healthcare systems in rural and underserved settings and advancing nursing education to address workforce needs in these areas.","PeriodicalId":501260,"journal":{"name":"medRxiv - Nursing","volume":"452 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226107","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, the contents of self-actualization through specific care/caring are unclear. The purpose of this integrative review was to clarify the self-actualization of the nurse as an outcome of family care/caring, and the self-actualization of other individuals (that is, the family) who are supported by nurses.\u0000Methods\u0000Conducting a search using Ichushi-Web, CiNii and J-STAGE, which are extensive Japanese literature databases, 1,061 original articles were identified using the keywords “cerebrovascular disease AND nurse.” The quality of the articles was assessed according to the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal checklists. We conducted an integrative review of 11 articles describing transactions between nurses and families according to Toronto and Remington. Self-actualization of the nurse and self-actualization of other individuals were classified as subcategories and then as categories.\u0000Results\u0000Of the 11 studies utilized, 10 were qualitative studies and one was a quantitative descriptive study. Eight categories were identified for self-actualization of families with a cerebrovascular patient by nurses, including “Families can realize their hopes through the provision of an environment by nurses.” Three categories of self-actualization of the nurse were identified, including “Nurses can obtain a sense of satisfaction from the family.”\u0000Conclusion\u0000During the recovery process after hospitalization for cerebrovascular disease, a caring phenomenon occurs between the patient’s family and nurses, which can be understood using Family Care/Caring Theory.

However, whether the cognitive function declines before and shortly after new-onset hypertension remains largely unknown. Objectives: We aimed to examine the cognitive trajectories before and after new-onset hypertension among community-dwelling midlife and older participants.\u0000Methods: This study included 2,964 participants from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing who were free of hypertension at baseline. Participants who had a stroke at baseline or during follow-up were excluded. Global cognition (a summary of semantic fluency, orientation, and memory) was assessed at baseline (wave 2, 2004) and at least once from wave 3 to wave 9 (2018). New-onset hypertension was defined by self-reported doctor diagnosis, use of antihypertensive medications, and blood measurements &lt; 140/90 mmHg. Results: Over a median follow-up of 13.6 years, 1,121 (37.8%) participants developed hypertension. The cognitive decline rate among those who later developed hypertension during the pre-hypertension period was similar to the rate among those who remained hypertension-free throughout the study. After the onset of hypertension, the rate of cognitive decline accelerated in global cognition (β, -0.015 SD/year; 95% CI, -0.026 to -0.003; p=0.011), semantic fluency (β, -0.015 SD/year; 95% CI, -0.027 to -0.003; p=0.017), and memory (β, -0.022 SD/year; 95% CI, -0.033 to -0.010; p&lt;0.001), but not in orientation ability (β, -0.012 SD/year; 95% CI, -0.028 to 0.005; p=0.157). Participants who developed hypertension in older age did not experience a reduced impact of post-hypertension cognitive decline compared to those who developed hypertension in midlife. Conclusions: Participants experienced accelerated cognitive decline upon developing new-onset hypertension. Older participants are equally susceptible to cognitive impairment due to hypertension. Early antihypertensive initiation is crucial in both midlife and later life to protect cognitive health.","PeriodicalId":501260,"journal":{"name":"medRxiv - Nursing","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141941388","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}

Among older adults with HF, symptoms are manifested in clustered symptoms. Few studies have addressed symptoms specifically in older adults with HF and most have been conducted with small samples. The aims of this study were to (1) describe symptom cluster profiles in older adults with HF in a nationally representative sample of community-dwelling older adults; and (2) determine the associations between demographic and clinical characteristics and membership in symptom cluster profiles.\u0000Methods: A secondary analysis was conducted using data from the Health and Retirement Study. Fatigue, shortness of breath, pain, swelling, depressive symptoms, and dizziness were measured. Latent class analysis was used to identify symptom cluster profiles. Bivariate associations and multinomial logistic regression were used to determine the associations between symptom cluster profiles and demographic and clinical characteristics. Results: The sample included 690 participants. Three symptom cluster profiles were identified [high-burden, low-burden, and cardiopulmonary-depressive]. Age, gender, BMI, marital status, alcohol consumption, diabetes, lung disease, and arthritis were significantly different across the three profiles. People in the high-burden and cardiopulmonary-depressive profiles, compared to those in low-burden, had higher odds of having lung disease and arthritis, yet lower odds of higher alcohol consumption.

More women are able to prevent short and long-term maternal disabilities and illnesses such as fistulas, infertility and depression. Kenya has developed a number of policies to improve maternal health. One such policy is the free maternity services policy that allows all pregnant mothers to have access to free maternity services in government facilities across the country. Free maternity services policy allows for provision of free delivery services to expectant women in health facilities run by the Kenyan Government. 189 nations ratified the Millennium Declaration and pledged to accomplish eight objectives by the turn of the twenty-first century. The study was a cross-sectional descriptive research design targeting population of 51,770 women of childbearing age in Imenti South Sub County. The sample size consisted of 100 respondents (women of childbearing aged between 18-49 years). The study employed qualitative and quantitative sampling methods. The sampling procedure was simple random sampling and purposive sampling. Data collection instruments were by questionnaires and observation schedule. Data was analyzed by use of descriptive statistics and results displayed using tables, bar charts, pie charts and presented using percentages, frequencies, means and standard deviations. Analysis was done using SPSS version 25. Uptake of maternity services. The negative attitude of health care workers greatly influenced Uptake of maternity services. Limited uptake was also linked to poor development of health infrastructure and usage of the facility, which ultimately influenced Uptake of maternity services. Awareness did not match Uptake of maternity services. The study concluded that social demographic factors, client related factors and health facility-related factors can influence the success or failure of Uptake of maternity services by women. It recommended a rights-based approach when designing and delivering free maternity services, strengthening client satisfaction programs and adopting a broader bottom-up approach when engaging rural women to ensure effective development of health infrastructure and usage of the facility. further suggestions for future research was recommended, including studies that explore attitudes and behaviours in varied settings, factors promoting positive attitudes and behaviours, and the effectiveness of interventions to address negative patient experiences in both three-level and other health facilities in Kenya.","PeriodicalId":501260,"journal":{"name":"medRxiv - Nursing","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141503938","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}
