Abstract: Background: A burn occurs when some or all of the cells in the skin or other tissues are destroyed by hot liquids, hot solids or flames. 84% of pediatric burn incidents occur at home of which 80% when the children are unsupervised. Early access to medical care has reduced the incidence of mortality which also means that there are more survivors than those in the earlier decades. This forces the affected children and their families into coping that makes the posttraumatic period more stressful and distressing. The most common psychological effects are depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress. The Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) classified experience of a traumatic event accompanied by the 3 psychological symptoms of re-experiencing, avoidance and physiological arousal and associated functional impairment are features of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)........

Abstract: Background: Hemodialysis is a lifesaving treatment that can offer significant advantages for certain patients. Patients may remain for several years suffering from End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), on maintenance hemodialysis dialysis (MHD) in dialysis settings in contact with dialysis personnel. The increasing number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) worldwide specifically in the low and moderate-income countries abruptly increases the likely number of premature deaths, besides its effect on the burden of the disease (Newell S, Jordan Z., Teshome Habte Wurjine1) as estimated by the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) in the year 2015 that 1.2 million deaths, 19 million disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) and18 million years of life lost from cardiovascular diseases were directly attributable to reduced glomerular filtration rates. Aim: To assess the patients' satisfaction with care at a selected dialysis unit in Khartoum, Sudan. Methods: The study was conducted in the capital.....
