Abstract: Background: Prolonged hospital admissions of patients remain a challenge to healthcare providers and seekers, particularly in resource-limited settings. Bacterial infections contribute significantly to prolonged stay despite numerous advances in research updates on nosocomial bacterial infections, including many suggestions on associated risk factors. This study aimed at evaluating the risk factors and bacteriology of patients on prolonged hospital admission at Murtala Muhammad specialist hospital Kano state (MMSH), Nigeria. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional and retrospective study design was used to determine the prevalence of healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) and prolonged hospital stay, respectively. One hundred and forty (140) swabs and urine samples were collected from the medical.........

Abstract: Background:One of the problems in stroke patients is a decrease in muscle strength due to hemiparesis which affects the client's self-acceptance. The study aims is to determine the effectiveness of combination mirror therapy and ROM on upper limb muscle strength and self-acceptance stage in stroke clients with hemiparesis. Materials and Methods:Quasi experimental research with pre-post control group design was done on 36 respondents with consecutive sampling technique, for 3 months in the stroke room. Upper limb muscle strength was measured using a Medical Research Council scale, while the self-acceptance stage used a self-acceptance stage questionnaire based on the Kubler Ross adaptation stage. Data were analyzed using wilcoxon and Mann-
Witney test with p value <0,05..........

Abstract: The aim of the study to assess the incidence and risk factors of phlebitis. Patients aged between 20-80 years of age were included. The information was gathered using semi-structured questionnaire and observational data. Four data collectors visited the patients daily and examined for signs of phlebitis; warmth, erythema, swelling, oedema, tenderness or a palpable venous cord. Risk factors such as patients' age and gender, size of cannula, site of insertion, location of cannula, duration of catheterization, hand washing practice, type of material used for stabilization, use of catheter for infusion and type of infusate were studied. Phlebitis was graded using a phlebitis rating scale developed from the Infusion Nurses Society (2011). The phlebitis incidence was found to be higher......

Abstract: Mental illness is a long term disease process and medication non-adherence is a common and complex barrier to effective long-term treatment. Non adherence is the main cause of relapse and re-hospitalization. So, finding out the attitude towards the treatment could help in the planning of proper management strategies. Thus, the present study was undertaken to assess the attitude towards treatment in patient with Schizophrenia and Mood Disorders. A descriptive research design was used for the study. Population consists of follow up patients in OPD who were already diagnosed as Schizophrenia and Mood disorders patients under ICD-10 criteria by the psychiatrist. Using purposive sampling technique, 50 patients each diagnosed with Schizophrenia and Mood......

Abstract: Chronic wound such as diabetic foot ulcer (dfu) is commonly resistant to conventional methods andassociated with foot complications. Delay in the healing of diabetic foot ulcers could lead to devastating complications such as infection, gangrene and lower limb amputations. Thus, effective management of dfu is crucial to expedite healing. Management of dfu requires efficient wound debridement to remove slough, necrotic tissue, prepare the wound for healing and closure. Maggot debridement therapy or MDT has been widely used in the debridement of chronic wounds and shown promising findings. However, MDT studies in the treatment of dfu remained less in number. Consequently......

Abstract: Computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is the process of entering medication orders or other physician instructions electronically instead of on paper charts. It was also defined as the electronic prescribing systems that intercept errors at the time they occur, typically when a medication is ordered. CPOE has the potential to decrease medical errors and improve quality. Our health system plans to implement CPOE in response to the ARRA HITECH Act. Despite the well-documented ability of information technology to reduce medical errors and pinpoint where potential safety problems are likely to occur, hospitals and physicians remain reluctant to adopt CPOE systems. However, continuing barriers to implementation of information technology that most providers and payers recognize as important, organizations have made very big changes in how they look at patient......
