    Introduction

    Endotracheal intubation, as one of the most important methods of airway management, is of great importance and can lead to saving the patient's life. Hence, the training of this skill is highly considered. The present study aimed to design an educational simulator software in this field and to determine its impact on improving the performance of undergraduate students of anesthesia in Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

    Methods

    In this experimental study, 17 undergraduate anesthesia students were selected from Tehran University of Medical Sciences in the second semester of 96-97 (2017-18) and randomly divided into control and intervention groups. The control group was evaluated without any intervention, while the intervention group was evaluated after receiving the simulated content and its reviewing several times in the skill lab. The data were collected by a demographic questionnaire and a validated and relied evaluation checklist. The scores of both groups were evaluated using the SPSS-22 software, descriptive statistics (absolute and relative frequency, mean and standard deviation), and t-test, in order to determine the effectiveness of the simulator in improving the performance of anesthesia students in this regard.

    Results

    The results indicated that the average score of students' performance in patient preparation for intubation was (22.22±10.17) and (36.75±6.78) in the control and intervention groups, respectively, indicating a significant difference (P=0.004). In addition, the average score of students' performance in laryngoscopy skill was (24.09±9.02) and (41.16±12.1) in the control and intervention groups, respectively, which was a significant difference (P=0.008). Finally, the average total score of students' performance in patient preparation for intubation and improvement of laryngoscopy skill was (48.67±20.09) and (78.50±17.78) in the control and intervention groups, respectively, indicating a significant difference (P=0.006).

    Conclusion

    Based on the results, the use of computer-based simulator could improve students' performance in patient preparation for intubation and improvement of laryngoscopy skill by up to 50%. Therefore, this method can be used as a complementary training method to improve the students’ performance in similar clinical skills in medical sciences.

    Background & Aim

    Considering the importance of communication skills in nursing, we aimed to study the impact of online support and e-content on communication skills of nurses with patients.

    Methods & Materials

    In this quasi-experimental study with pre- and post-design, 100 nurses employed in the orthopedic wards of Chamran hospital affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in 2018 were selected randomly and assigned into two groups of 50. Both groups received the electronic content of communication skills. In the intervention group, in addition to receiving educational content, online support was provided through social media for four weeks with the presence of a psychologist, so that by asking real questions and problems or simulated scenarios, appropriate behavior in that situation was discussed. Before and eight weeks after the intervention, communication skills in the both groups were assessed by the Burton Jaychr('39')s Communication Skills questionnaire, and data was compared using independent t-test and analysis of covariance.

    Results

    The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in the communication skills score before the intervention, but eight weeks after receiving the e-content, the participantschr('39') scores increased in the both groups. This increase was greater in the online support group (P<0.001). In fact, online support caused a difference (0.637) in the communication skills score between the two groups.

    Conclusion

    The results of this study showed the provision of e-content along with online support has led to the improvement of communication skills. It is recommended that in addition to education through e-content, social media be used in the empowerment programs of the treatment team including communication skills improvement, due to their advantages such as ease of use, availability and relatively low cost.

    Background & Aim
    Delirium is prevalent in the intensive care unit (ICU), especially among mechanically-ventilated patients. Delirium is associated with a significant increase in adverse outcomes but it usually remains undiagnosed, making it necessary to develop and validate diagnostic tools. This study determined the validity and reliability of the Persian version of the Confusion Assessment Method for Intensive Care Units) CAM_ICU( in Iran.


    Methods & Materials
     This cross-sectional study was conducted in open-heart ICU of three university hospitals of Tehran, Iran. After piloting the translated CAM-ICU on 10 patients and refining the translated scale accordingly, 40 ventilated patients were consecutively selected and screened for delirium by two independent evaluators (applying CAM-ICU), and one psychiatrist (using DSM-IV criteria for diagnosis). Inter-rater reliability between the two evaluators was assessed by the Kappa coefficient. Validity indices (i.e., sensitivity and specificity) of the Persian-CAM-ICU and 95% confidence intervals were calculated, given the psychiatrists’ diagnosis as the reference standard. Data were analyzed in Stata software (v. 11).

    Results
    Of 40 selected patients, CAM_ICU detected delirium in 30%. The Persian-CAM-ICU had a sensitivity and specificity of 75% and 96%, and a positive and negative predictive value of 92% and 85%, respectively. Youden’s J statistic of the scale was 71%. Each of the four domains of the CAM-ICU showed a sensitivity and specificity of more than 69% and 90%, respectively, suggesting acceptable construct validity. There was good agreement between the two evaluators in terms of delirium diagnosis with the Persian-CAM-ICU (kappa coefficient = 0.74, P<0.0001).

    Conclusion
    The Persian version of the CAM_ICU is an effective, valid and reliable diagnostic tool in critically ill ICU patients. Application of the scale is recommended for the prompt diagnosis and prevent potential delirium in ventilated patients.

    Background
    The efficacy of electronic continuing education courses in comparison to lectured based methods requires further evaluation. This study aimed at comparing the effect of electronic (e-learning) and face-to-face conventional instruction on level of knowledge of general dentists on bleaching of discolored teeth.
    Methods
    In this quasi-experimental controlled trial study in 2017 (1396) with post-test and control group design, firstly, a lecture-based continuing education courses at Shahid Beheshti University on discoloration of a single tooth was carried out for general dentists (as the control group, N = 35). Then, a continuing education online course with the same topic was done for the second group (N = 35). Convenience sampling was used to select participants of each group. Data were collected by a researcher-made questionnaire, which consisted of 2 parts (post-test with 10 questions and a satisfaction questionnaire with 10 questions). Content validity and test-retest reliability (r = 0.8) of both was determined. Data analysis was performed using the t-test and Pearson’s chi square test using the SPSS 23 software. The level of statistical significant was considered at P = 0.05.
    Results
    The mean knowledge score after education was 7.02 (2.87) in e-learning and 6.77 (1.23) in the conventional group. The difference between the 2 groups was not significant (P = 0.63). Overall, 91.4% in the e-learning and 91.5% in the conventional group believed that the educational course obviated their occupational needs.
    Conclusions
    E-learning was as effective as conventional instruction for bleaching of a single discolored tooth in terms of knowledge score (post-test score) and self-reported satisfaction and attitude of dentists.

    Self-efficacy has an influence on nurses’ professional progress, motivation, effort, perseverance, and time spent by learners on learning. It is also an interface between knowledge and practice. This study aimed to assess the impact of virtual-based education on self-efficacy of nurses in level II neonatal intensive care.
    Materials And Methods
    In this quasi-experimental study, after determining the sample size (n = 80), nurses working in level II neonatal care unit of hospitals affiliated to TUMS were randomly divided into two groups. The study was conducted in 2015. Nurses’ self-efficacy level was measured in the two groups by using Coates self-efficacy questionnaire on the first day of the study. For the intervention group, education content of level II neonatal care was developed and run on Namad system of the virtual faculty of TUMS for two months. No specific intervention was performed for the control group. At the end of the education course, nurses’ psychological empowerment was reassessed in both groups by using the mentioned questionnaire. Data analysis was performed by using the paired t-test, Fisher exact test, chi-square, and independent t-test in SPSS 23.
    Results
    Research units were similar in terms of all demographic variables other than work experience in neonatal unit. Mean and standard deviation of self-efficacy scores in the control and intervention groups before the intervention were 129.7 ± 13.973 and 118.05 ± 11.104, respectively, while mean and standard deviation of the two groups after the intervention were 128.09 ± 12.363 and 136.11 ± 9.830, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the mean score of self-efficacy between the two groups before the intervention P ≤ 0.001), self-efficacy mean score in the control group before and after the intervention (P = 0.002), self-efficacy mean score in the intervention group before and after the intervention (P ≤ 0.001), and self-efficacy mean score between the two groups after the intervention (P ≤ 0.004).
    Conclusions
    The results of the present study indicate the effectiveness of virtual education in increased self- efficacy of nurses in level II neonatal intensive care unit. With regard to the advantages of virtual education, it can be employed as a modern educational method to provide necessary requirements and tools for training nurses and other healthcare givers.

    Background
    Coronary artery diseases are among the most important causes of disability and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is considered as one of the most important methods of treatment. The improvement of post-surgery adherence to treatment plan is one of the main healthcare objectives.
    Objectives
    The present study attempted to determine the effect of family-centered empowerment model on the adherence of patients undergoing CABG to the treatment plans.
    Methods
    This research was a clinical trial and a quasi-experimental study, including pre and post tests with a control group performed on 102 patients and active family members of the patients hospitalized at the intensive care unit (ICU) of Imam Khomeini hospital of Tehran, Iran in 2014. For the experimental group, the family-centered empowerment model was implemented with four steps. The control group received only common care. The rate of patients’ adherence to the treatment plans was then investigated in three areas of diet, medication, and physical activities before and after the intervention, and the data were analyzed using PASW Statistics V18 software.
    Results
    The two groups were similar in terms of demographic variables. After the intervention, there was a significant difference based on the results of the independent T-test in terms of mean scores of adherence to the treatment plan in the three areas mentioned above (P = 0.000). Also, before and after the intervention, a significant difference was observed in the experimental group in terms of the above mean scores (P = 0.000).
    Conclusions
    Based on the research findings, the family-centered empowerment model seems to be practical and feasible for the patients under CABG, which can bring improvement or correction of adherence to the treatment plan.

    Delphi as a consensus development technique enables anonymous, systematic refinement of expert opinion with the aim of arriving at a combined or consensual position. In this study, we determined the criteria and their weights for Iranian Medical School's ranking through a Delphi process. An expert committee devised 13 proposed criteria with 32 indicators with their weights, which were arranged hierarchically in the form of a tree diagram. We used the Delphi technique to reach a consensus on these criteria and weights among the deans of 38 public Iranian medical schools. For this purpose, we devised and sent a questionnaire to schools and asked them to suggest or correct the criteria and their weights. We repeated this process in two rounds till all the schools reached an acceptable consensus on them. All schools reached a consensus on the set of 13 criteria and 30 indicators and their weights in three main contexts of education, research and facilities, and equipment which were used for Medical Schools’ ranking. Using Delphi technique for devising the criteria and their weights in evaluation processes such as ranking makes their results more acceptable among universities.

    Methods
    In this clinical trial study, 240 patients under physical restraint and hospitalized in intensive care units of Hazrat Rasool Akram hospital were studied in two control and intervention groups with convenience sampling. Observance of the physical restraint standards was first recorded with observational checklist. Then, the multifactorial intervention (education through pamphlet, installation of poster in the unit and physical restraint datasheet) was executed for one month. After that, observance of standards was recorded and compared with that of the control group. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS v.16 software with independent t-test and Chi-square test.
    Results
    The findings showed that observance of physical restraint standards in the control group was undesirable in more than half of the patients (56.7%) and relatively desirable in the intervention group for the majority of the patients (73.3%). Result of independent t-test showed statistically significant difference in observance of standards between the control and intervention groups (P value
    Conclusions
    Considering the obtained results, multifactor intervention increased the observance rate of physical restraint standards for patients hospitalized in intensive care units. As a result, it is suggested to use multifactor intervention (education to personnel, recording restraint and installing poster) to improve immunity of patients and reduce the side effects of physical restraint in intensive care units.

    Aims
    Most patients hospitalized in intensive care units suffer from restlessness, confusion, and delirium. Physical restraint seems to be the only acceptable measure for ensuring patients’ own and others’ safety in certain cases in which other interventions are not applicable or useful. The aim of this study was “to evaluate the application of physical restraint standards in intensive care units”.
    Methods
    This was a cross-sectional descriptive study. A convenient sample of 120 physically restrained patients was recruited from the intensive care units of selected hospitals of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. The data collection tool was an observational checklist for physical restraint standards. The SPSS16 was used for calculating the measures of descriptive statistics and conducting statistical tests.
    Results
    Most of the participating patients were male (65.8%), aged 50–60 years (62.5%), and had a Glasgow Coma Scale score of less than 8. The Fisher’s exact test revealed a significant difference among the studied intensive care units and also among the three phases of using restraint (i.e. before, during, and after restraint use) regarding the rate of applying restraint standards (p≤0.001). Moreover, restraint standards were minimally applied in the study setting.
    Conclusions
    Educating nurses—as the first decision makers for restraint use—and familiarizing them with restraint-related clinical guidelines are crucial.

    Prior to intervention, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of adherence to diet program (p = 0.2, mean difference 25.8 ± 25.7), to pharmaceutical regimen (p=0.6, mean difference 1.96 ± 0.61) and physical activity (p = 0.7 mean difference 1.33 ± 0.66). After two weeks family-centered education group had significantly more adherence to the diet program (p = 0.001, mean difference 43.1 ± 11.1), pharmaceutical regimen (p=0.04, mean difference 2.72 ± 0.5) and physical activity (p = 0.035, mean difference2.41 ± 0.89), and total adherence score (p=0.03) in comparison with patient-centered education group. After four weeks just the adherence to pharmaceutical regimen showed significant difference between groups (p<0.001).
    Conclusion
    The results of the study showed that the family-centered education is more effective than patient-centered education on patients’ adherence to the therapeutic program particularly pharmaceutical regimen, which suggests, by having family centered education in hemodyalisis patients, the outcome could be improved.
