this study aimed to identify the influence of health education about HIV/AIDS towards enhancing knowledge and HIV prevention efforts in household wives.Method
A quasy experimental design with pretest and posttest nonequivalent control group study was conducted among housewives in Rumbai Pekanbaru, Riau Province from March to August 2018. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select 144 housewives. A total of 72 intervention groups and 72 control groups. The intervention group was given health education with videos and leaflets. A questionnaire that it tested for validity and reliability has been applied. The Paired-Samples T-Test and Independent Samples T-Test were applied to analyze data.Results
There were differences in pretest and posttest preventive knowledge and prevention behavior scores on HIV in the intervention group (p-value = 0.000). However, there was no significant difference in prevention behavior in the control group (p-value = 0.0120). Based on this results, it can be concluded that health education can increase the knowledge and behavior of prevention of HIV/AIDS in household wives (p-value = 0.000).Recommendation
The health education on HIV/AIDS counseling and testing are key interventions for reducing number of HIV/AIDS cases. It is recommended that housewives to conduct HIV status on health services, and for HIV program holders are expected to increase the frequency of health education by using attractive media and VCT mobile services in order to reach more housewives. 相似文献4.

Background
Flap surgery for deep pelvic pressure ulcers (PPUs) has been found effective, but the recurrence rate remains high and few risk factors have been identified.Objective
We evaluated risk factors for PU recurrence after primary flap surgery in people with spinal cord injury (SCI).Patients and methods
This observational retrospective study based on medical charts included all individuals with SCI who underwent primary flap surgery for a PPU in the Hérault department in France between 2006 and 2014. Overall, 100 biomedical, psychological, socioeconomic and care management factors were studied. The primary outcome was PPU recurrence (surgical site and/or other pelvic site). The secondary outcome was recurrence at the surgical site. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to determine associated factors, estimating hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).Results
We included 85 patients. Half had a PPU recurrence, and in one-third, the recurrence was at the surgical site. On multivariate analysis, global PPU recurrence was associated with colostomy (HR = 2.79) and living with a partner (HR = 2.29). Non-traumatic SCI and sacral wound were associated with PPU recurrence (HR = 3.39, HR = 0.48) and recurrence at the surgical site (HR = 3.3, HR = 0.3).Conclusion
Risk factors of PPU recurrence are based on both biomedical and social models. After primary flap surgery, the risk of recurrence justifies regular follow-up and strict monitoring. 相似文献5.

Background
Excessive gestational weight gain is associated with several adverse events and pathologies during pregnancy.Objective
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an exercise program throughout pregnancy on maternal weight gain and prevalence of gestational diabetes.Method
A randomized controlled trial was designed that included an exercise intervention group (EG) and standard care control group (CG). The exercise intervention included moderate aerobic exercise performed three days per week (50–55 minutes per session) for 8–10 weeks to 38–39 weeks gestation.Results
594 pregnant women were assessed for eligibility and 456 were included (EG n = 234; CG n = 222). The results showed a higher percentage of pregnant women gained excessive weight in the CG than in the EG (30.2% vs 20.5% respectively; odds ratio, 0.597; 95% confidence interval, 0.389–0.916; p = 0.018). Similarly, the prevalence of gestational diabetes was significantly higher in the CG than the EG (6.8% vs 2.6% respectively; odds ratio, 0.363; 95% confidence interval, 0.138–0.953; p = 0.033).Conclusion
The results of this trial indicate that exercise throughout pregnancy can reduce the risk of excessive maternal weight gain and gestational diabetes. 相似文献7.

Objective
To translate and cross-culturally adapt the Pelvic Girdle Questionnaire (PGQ) into Brazilian Portuguese and test the measurement properties of the PGQ and the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) in women with pelvic pain during pregnancy.Methods
Thirty pregnant women were included in the assessment of the pre-test of the final version of the PGQ and 100 were included in the assessment of the measurement properties. In the initial assessment, the PGQ, RMDQ, pain numerical rating scale, and WHOQOL-BREF were applied to test the internal consistency and construct validity. In the 48-hour assessment, only the PGQ and RMDQ were applied to test reliability and measurement error; in the reassessment after one month, the PGQ, RMDQ, and global perceived effect scale were applied to evaluate responsiveness.Results
The PGQ showed adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.83), substantial reliability (ICC2,1 = 0.85), very good measurement error (5%), and good responsiveness (r = ?0.62). We also observed good correlation with disability and quality of life in the physical health domain, moderate correlation with pain and quality of life in the psychological domain, and poor correlation with quality of life in the domains social relationships and environment. The RMDQ showed adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.80), substantial reliability (ICC2,1 = 0.76), good measurement error (9%), moderate responsiveness (r = ?0.51), moderate correlation with quality of life in the physical health and psychological domains, and weak correlation with pain and quality of life in the social relationships and environment domains.Conclusion
The Brazilian Portuguese version of the PGQ showed superior measurement properties compared to the RMDQ, being a valid, reliable, and responsive instrument for assessing patients with pelvic pain during pregnancy. 相似文献8.

Background
Although the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and bladder training are well established, there is a paucity of patient centered models using these interventions to treat women with UI at primary level of health assistance in Brazil.Objective
To investigate the effectiveness of a physical therapy intervention to treat women with UI in primary health centers.Methods
Pragmatic non-randomized controlled trial in which women with UI from the community participated in a supervised physical therapy program consisting of bladder training plus 12 weeks of PFMT, performed either at home or in the health center. Outcome measures were amount and frequency of urine loss measured by the 24-h pad-test and the 24-h voiding diary; secondary outcome was the impact of UI on quality of life measured by the ICIQ-SF. Outcomes were measured at baseline, at the 6th and 12th weeks of the intervention and 1 month after discharge.Results
Interventions reduced the amount (pad-test, p = 0.004; d = 0.13, 95% CI = ?0.23 to 0.49) and frequency of urine loss (voiding diary, p = 0.003; d = 0.51, 95%CI = 0.14 to 0.87), and the impact of UI on quality of life (ICIQ-SF, p < 0.001; d = 1.26, 95%CI = 0.87 to 1.66) over time, with positive effects from the 6th week up to 1 month for both intervention setting (home and health center), and no differences between them.Conclusion
Interventions were effective, can be implemented in primary health centers favoring the treatment of a greater number of women who do not have access to specialized physical therapy.Trial registration: RBR-8tww4y. 相似文献9.

Background
With an ageing population and chronic illness the leading cause of death, challenges exist in meeting the healthcare needs of older people. For older people, care may be provided in subacute care services where, although the focus is on rehabilitation and optimisation of functioning, many older people will die.Aim
To investigate end-of-life care provision for older people in subacute care.Methods
A retrospective clinical chart audit of all subacute inpatient deaths in one year.Results
54 inpatients died in subacute care and almost all had been transferred from an acute care setting. The mean age was 83 (SD = 9), patients had multiple diagnoses and were admitted for assessment or to establish a safe discharge destination. None were identified as ‘terminal’ on admission and none had an Advance Care Plan to guide care preferences. Prior to death, more than half (57.4%) received terminal care compliant with the Promoting Improved Care of the Dying (PICD) guideline. 53.7% were referred for specialist palliative care review, and despite a mean wait time of 0.6 days (SD = 0.8), 11.1% of patients died before specialist palliative care review. Documentation of communication with patients/family of the likelihood of death occurred in two key sequential time points; the first was information-related and the second decision-related. When these time points occurred impacted end-of-life care provision. Ambiguity in language used to communicate patient deterioration and dying with clinicians and family, impacted understanding and provision of end-of-life care.Conclusions
Education is needed to aid clinicians in subacute care to identify patient deterioration and dying and communicate the likelihood of death to the multidisciplinary team and with patients and families. Nursing and allied health clinicians are well placed to have greater involvement in communicating patient deterioration and likely death. 相似文献10.
Objective
The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of Tepid Sponge on changes in body temperature in children aged under five who had a fever in Dr. Achmad Mochtar Bukittinggi Hospital.Method
This research is Quasi Experiment with one group pretest–posttest research design. Done at Dr. Achmad Mochtar Bukittinggi Hospital in April 2018. Respondents of children under five who suffered from fever were 12 people. Samples in Non-probability Sampling with Systematic Sampling.

Background
Overweight and obesity are associated with musculoskeletal pain, particularly in the female population. However, regular resistance training may positively affect these complaints.Objective
The present study aimed to investigate between group differences in musculoskeletal pain in previously inactive women, allocated to three different resistance-training modalities available in health- and fitness clubs.Methods
This is secondary analysis from a single-blinded randomized controlled trial, including healthy women (aged 18–65) with a BMI (kg/m2) ≥25. The participants were allocated to 12 weeks (3 times/weekly) of either BodyPump (high-repetition low-load group session) (n = 24), heavy load resistance training with a personal trainer (n = 28), non-supervised heavy load resistance training (n = 19) or non-exercising controls (n = 21). Primary outcome was self-reported musculoskeletal pain in ten different body parts, measured with the Standardized Nordic Pain Questionnaire, at baseline and post-test. In addition, the study included sub-analyses of the participants when they were divided into high (≥28 of 36 sessions, n = 38) and low (≤27 of 36 sessions, n = 22) exercise adherence.Results
The analysis revealed no between group differences in musculoskeletal pain in any of the ten body parts. The results did not change when the participants were divided into high versus low adherence.Conclusions
Twelve weeks of BodyPump, heavy load resistance training with a personal trainer and non-supervised heavy load resistance training did not show any effect on self-reported musculoskeletal pain in overweight women.Clinical Trial registration number: NCT01993953.(https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01993953). 相似文献13.

Background
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk of falls, with potential adverse outcomes. There is a considerable variation across studies regarding the prevalence of falls and its correlation with clinical data, disease-related outcomes and physical performance tests.Objective
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of falls and its association with clinical data, disease-related outcomes and physical performance tests.Methods
In this cross-sectional study, 113 RA patients were divided into 3 groups — “non-fallers”, “sporadic fallers” and “recurrent fallers” — and compared in terms of clinical data, Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), lower-limb tender and swollen joint count, disability (Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index [HAQ-DI]), Foot Function Index (FFI), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed-up-and-go Test (TUG) and 5-Time Sit Down-To-Stand Up Test (SST5). Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the associations between the studied variables and the occurrence of falls, estimating odds ratios (ORs). We also analyzed the correlation between disease outcome measures (HAQ-DI and CDAI) and physical tests (BBS, TUG, SST5).Results
Falls and fear of falling were reported by 59 (52.21%) and 71 (64.5%) patients, respectively. Significant associations were found between “recurrent fallers” and vertigo (OR = 3.42; P = 0.03), fear of falling (OR = 3.44; P = 0.01), low income (OR = 2.02; P = 0.04), CDAI (OR = 1.08; P < 0.01), HAQ-DI (OR = 3.66; P < 0.01), Lower-limb HAQ (OR = 3.48; P < 0.01), FFI-pain (OR = 1.24; P = 0.03), FFI-total (OR = 1.23; P = 0.04), lower-limb tender joint count (OR = 1.22; P < 0.01), BBS score (OR = 1.14; P < 0.01), TUG score (OR = 1.13; P = 0.03) and SST5 score (OR = 1.06; P = 0.02). On multivariate analysis, CDAI was the only significant predictor of recurrent falls (OR = 1.08; P < 0.01). Physical performance test scores (BBS, TUG, SST5) were correlated with the CDAI and HAQ-DI.Conclusion
The prevalence of falls in RA is high, most influenced by disease-related outcomes and linked to worse performance on physical tests (BBS, TUG and SST5). 相似文献14.

Background
Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers often have high levels of unmet information needs. However, whether these information needs are the same for cancer survivors living in Arab speaking countries compared to Arab migrants is not clear.Objective
To identify the information needs and information sources among Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers.Methods
Arab cancer survivors (n = 143) in Jordan and Australia were surveyed to explore their information needs and information sources. Interviews with cancer survivors and their caregivers, and focus groups with health care providers were conducted in both countries.Findings
While lack of information about cancer, its treatment and side effects were common to both groups, Arab Australian cancer survivors expressed greater need for information about managing their illness (P = .027), receiving explanations about tests (P = .016) and the benefits and side-effects of treatments before making choices (P = .041) than Jordanian cancer survivors. Qualitative findings revealed preferences for spoken rather than written information, and the provision of diagrams and drawings. Although information provided by doctors was a trusted source, almost half the participants indicated they used the Internet for information. Despite the use of interpreters, Australian health care providers expressed concern at whether the information they provided had been delivered and understood.Conclusion
Arab cancer survivors and their caregivers have unmet cancer information needs resulting in them seeking information from potentially unreliable sources such as the Internet. Arab migrants may need additional assistance to ensure they receive information relevant to their disease and are linked with the most trusted source of information. 相似文献15.

Background
Nursing workload remains an issue in current health care contexts. The use of quantitative methodologies, methods and tools to measure workload has not produced adequate data to inform workforce policy to resolve workforce concerns about workload.Objective
This study aimed to identify the influence of both culture and climate as factors in nursing workload.Methods
This research used an overall critical ethnographic methodology to investigate the real lifeworkload issues of nurses. Methods included fieldwork observations and informal discussions over a 3 year period and 11 in-depth interviews.Results
The study identifies the impact of safety mandates on nursing workload as an invisible phenomenon within current workload methodologies. Such mandates add to nursing roles and routines, and become a ‘taken-for-granted’ activity that is not always directly related to patient care, nor is a visible factor in workload measurement.Conclusion
Given that workload measurements are formulated on direct patient care activities, indirect and unrecognised activities may create additional nursing workload. 相似文献18.
Objective
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of oral stimulation on breastfeeding on infants.Method
This study uses the design of one group pre-test–post-test. The population was mature neonates aged < 14 days who were born without complications at a midwife clinic in Pekanbaru city. The sample consisted of 16 respondents. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling with criteria, mothers did not have breast problems and were willing to become respondents. The implementation of intervention was carried out by pre-test, 5 min oromuscular stimulation, then a 5-minute pause, then waiting for the next breastfeeding time and post-test. Breastfeeding ability is assessed with Latch score.Results
The results of the univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents aged 25–35 years (56.3%), the majority were housewife (87.5%), more than half were multiparous (62.5%) and most of the neonates were male (68.8%). The mean of Latch score before the intervention was 7.3 points and after intervention was 9.3 points. The results with the Wilcoxon test showed an increase in the ability of breastfeeding after an intervention of 2 point (p-value = 0.001).Conclusion
Oromuscular stimulation can be suggested as an alternative therapy to improve breastfeeding ability in neonates. 相似文献19.
