Therefore, the aim of study is to assess knowledge and practice among staff nurses in Punjab regarding COVID-19. Methods: An online survey-based study was conducted during the month of August to September among nurses. A self-administered questionnaire comprised of three sections (Demographics, knowledge, and practice) was used for data collection. Total sample size taken for study was 220 staff nurses. Results: Findings showed that staff nurses have good knowledge (78.2%) and good practice (97.7%) regarding COVID-19. Use of limited face mask in crowds and do not throwing the used tissues in trash are the major barriers in infection control practice. Factors such as qualification (χ2 = 22.805) were significantly associated with good knowledge at 0.05 level of significance. Furthermore, there was a significant relationship between qualification (χ2 = 9.314) and experience (χ2 = 11.635) with practice of staff nurses regarding COVID-19 at the 0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: Staff nurses in Punjab have good knowledge, reflected by good practice. Yet, there are areas where gaps in knowledge and practice were observed.

Depression is 2–3 times more in diabetic population than non-diabetic people. Appropriate management mainly – diet, physical activity, medication, and regular screening and treatment can control, prevent, and delay diabetic complications. Aim: This study aims to assess the prevalence and impact of depression in diabetes self-management. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive survey included 50 diabetic patients in the endocrinology outpatient department at selected medical college and hospital, Kolkata, from February 2021 to March2021. Depression and diabetic self-management were assessed through Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ), respectively. Based on the WHO’s five dimension of adherence, patients’ background information were collected. Results: PHQ-9 score indicates that 62% of the diabetics patients were having varied degree of depression mild (34%), minor (18%), and major depression (10%). DSMQ score indicates mean adherence in glucose management – 7.186, dietary control – 4.992, physical activity – 4.814, health-care use – 7.106, and sum scale – 6.12. About 60% of diabetic patients were having suboptimal adherence in diabetes self-management. There is a significant negative correlation (r = –0.382) between depression (PHQ-9) score and DSMQ score (P = 0.006). Conclusion: Depression is highly prevalent in diabetic population. Negative correlation between depression and diabetes self-management adherence indicates more the depression less the diabetes self-management.","PeriodicalId":92656,"journal":{"name":"International journal of nursing research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69653185","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}

Methods: BCS participants completed the CHAMPS at baseline (n = 146) and 12-month follow-up (n = 67). Generalized linear mixed-effects models, logistic regression, and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to analyze the quantitative data. Qualitative responses were categorized and quantified using frequencies. Results: A total of 247 responses to CHAMPS survey were received from participants (n = 146) who averaged 67 years of age and 10 years post-surgery. About 84% of respondents reported at least some moderate-intensive exercise in the past week for a median of 4 h. For a participant 10 years younger than another, the odds of having at least some moderate and intensive exercise were doubled (odds ratio [OR] = 2.01, P = 0.00) in hours and 89% higher (OR = 1.89, P = 0.00) in caloric expenditure. No statistically significant differences were found between the annual surveys in exercise caloric expenditures. Additional activities, including farm work, woodworking/carpentry, construction activities, and caring for grandchildren, were reported. Item missing rate was only 1.05%.
