However, there is a lack of evidence to inform culturally appropriate interventions to reduce home injuries. This study explored the potential for home environmental change at a community level to prevent unintentional home injury in children and identified the barriers to, and facilitators of, such changes. Focus groups were conducted in the Nepali language with mothers, fathers, teachers, school students and community health volunteers in rural areas of Makwanpur district in Nepal. The discussions were audio-recorded, transcribed, translated into English and analysed thematically. NVivo software was used to support coding and identification of themes. Five focus groups, involving forty-seven participants, were completed leading to the development of four themes. Overall, the findings highlight that community people perceive injuries to be a normal part of childhood and, therefore, few prevention measures were considered. Parents were, however, able to identify ways to change their environment that made it safer. Changes included removing hazards or adding safety equipment, adapting the home or restricting access to potential hazards. Barriers to implementation included limited awareness about injury hazards and risk management, poor quality housing and financial constraint. Facilitators included raising community awareness, acquiring resources and financial support and involving the family and community. Development of interventions to prevent injuries at home in pre-school children should reflect local context and culture; this is best achieved through engagement with parents.</p>","PeriodicalId":54388,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Child Health Care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10472719/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10171729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our objective was to determine if patient satisfaction with telemedicine differed from in-person visits in an academic pediatric urology clinic.

Patient satisfaction was assessed on a 10-point scale with scores of 9-10 considered \"satisfied\" and 1-8 considered \"not satisfied.\" Satisfaction scores between telemedicine and in-person groups were compared using McNemar's test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, and conditional logistic regression. Fifty-one patients had urology telemedicine visits during April-August 2020 and completed the NRC Health© Patient Survey. Propensity score matching was used to identify 102 in-person controls between January 2019 and March 2020. Ninety-two percent of telemedicine patients were satisfied compared to 87% of in-person patients (OR 1.7 95% CI [0.53-5.6]). Regression analysis adjusting for matching variables demonstrated that patient satisfaction was higher for telemedicine compared to in-person visits but was not statistically significant (OR 1.5 95% CI [0.43-5.6]).
