Today, most of the education and information presented in health care systems are at a higher level and are not an appropriate method for people to understand. This study aimed to examine the impact of two of the above methods on respiratory self-efficacy among people with COPD. Method: This study is a quasi-experimental clinical trial that performed in 2012 on 75 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease attending Masihe - Daneshvary and Emam Hosien hospitals in Tehran, Iran. We used purposive sampling method and the participants in the study were divided into three random categories (face to face, educational booklet, and control groups). The two groups of subjects were presented with identical content but different training methods. The control group received the routine instruction in the ward. Data analysis was performed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The results showed homogeneity at demographic data in three groups of study. Comparison of demographic and mean respiratory self-efficacy in the baseline between three study groups showed no significant difference. But the mean of respiratory self-efficacy in the past revealed a significant difference between face to face educational group and control groups (P0.05). Conclusion: Among people with COPD, face to face educational strategies increased respiratory self-efficacy more than booklet educational method. Consequently, nurses as care providers in patients with COPD can have a valuable role in patient education using face to face education method.}, Keywords = {COPD, self efficacy, face to face education, educational booklet}, volume = {4}, Number = {1}, pages = {1-7}, publisher = {4 انجمن علمی پرستاری ایران }, url = {http://jne.ir/article-1-439-en.html}, eprint = {http://jne.ir/article-1-439-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Nursing Education}, issn = {2322-3812}, eissn = {2322-4428}, year = {2015} } @article{ author = {Vahedian-azimi, A and Alhani, F and Goharimogaddam, K and Madani, SJ and Naderi, A and Hajiesmaeili, M}, title = {Effect of family - centered empowerment model on the quality of life in patients with myocardial infarction: A clinical trial study}, abstract ={Introduction: Nowadays, non-contagious diseases have been extended due to the renovation of societies, technology promotion, and density of population on urban zones and tendency of population to unsuitable habits. Cardiovascular diseases are from these failures and are the most widespread cause of death and disability in the most countries as well as in Iran. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of family-centered empowerment model (FCEM) on the quality of life of the myocardial infarction patients. Method: This clinical trial conducted on all of myocardial infarction patients hospitalized in Coronary Care Unit of the selected Hospital (72 persons in intervention and control groups). Sampling was conducted by convenience sampling and then random allocation. For intervention group FCEM was implemented with four dimensions of perceived threat with group discussion method, self-efficacy with problem solving methods, self-esteem with educational partnership and outcome and process evaluations and usual care was done for control group members. In this study the instruments used were demographic variables, specialty instruments of FCEM, and SF-36 quality of life instrument. To analysis the data, Chi square, independent and dependent t, U man Whitney, Wilcoxon signed rank tests and Pearson correlation coefficient were used. Results: 8 dimensions of quality of life were similar in both groups before the intervention (P>0.05), but after the intervention both groups had significant differences (P<0.05). But, paired t-test showed significant differences only in the intervention group (P<0.05).

The purpose of this study was the finding the relationship between empowerment with knowledge related to disease and indicators of metabolic controls in type 2 diabetic patients. Method: This analytical-descriptive study was conducted on 156 patients with type 2 diabetes in 2013. The data collection tool was a questionnaire to assess knowledge, empowerment assessment questionnaire (DES-28) and test record forms (hemoglobin A1C, fasting and non-fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides and high-density and low-density lipoprotein). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Mean age of the patients was 48.11±6.18 and most of them were female (62.8%). There was a significant relationship between the mean score for empowerment and knowledge of patients. Also a significant relationship was found between hemoglobin A1C, fasting and non-fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL with empowerment. But, there was not a significant relationship with LDL and patients with higher empowerment.

But there are many physical and psychological negative outcomes related to their use. Nurses are the key decision makers in the application of physical restraints to patients. Thus, educational programs regarding physical restraints must be considered to enhance nurses' knowledge, correct their attitude and improve their practice and consequently improve the quality of patients’ care. This study aimed at examining the effect of education program on critical care nurses’ attitudes towards, knowledge about and practice regarding the application of physical restraint. Method: In this quasi experimental study 66 nurses working in traumatic ICUs in Kerman recruited using convenience sampling. Participants were randomly assigned in two control and intervention groups and each group included 33 persons. The study questionnaire consisted of four parts: 1) background information 2) Self-designed questionnaire to assess nurses’ knowledge about physical restraint 3) Attitudes of Physical Restraint Use (APRU) to examine the nurses’ attitude towards physical restraints. 4) Practice of Physical Restraint Use (PPRU) to evaluate nurses’ practice regarding physical restraints. Prior to education program implementation, the questionnaire completed by all of the participants. Then an education program conducted for intervention group and after 2 weeks, that questionnaires completed by intervention group again. Data was analyzed using SPSS v.18 and paired t-test, independent t-test and Pearson correlation. Results: After the completion of the education program results showed a significant improvement in the intervention group in terms of knowledge (P<0.001), attitude (P<0.001) and practice (P<0.001) related to physical restraints. Conclusion: Findings indicated the level of nurses’ knowledge, attitude and practice that demonstrated the need to provide an education program on physical restraint.

One of the basic needs of mankind is critical thinking which has an effective role in the growth and evolution of individual and mankind’s civilization. The influence of many variables on critical thinking has been studied without considering the effect of using blended learning on critical thinking skills among nursing students. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the effects of using blended learning on nursing students’ critical thinking. Method: This was a Quasi-experimental study. The study population was nursing students from Ardabil University of Medical Sciences, Ardebil, Iran. We have chosen two classes using convenience sampling. The tools that have been used in this research were California Critical Thinking Skills Test Form B (CCTST). At the beginning of the study, the questionnaire of critical thinking was accomplished for both control and experimental groups. The experimental group was taught by blended learning method and control group which was taught by face to face method. At the end of the semester, post test of critical thinking skills was accomplished for both groups. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA. Results: There was no significant difference in the mean score in the critical thinking skills between the control and experimental groups before the intervention (control group: 10.93, experimental group 11.25). Results after intervention shown that the score of critical thinking experimental group has significantly increased in comparison with control group’s score (P<0.001). Conclusion: The results of this study have shown that blended learning has significant impact on critical thinking skills and sub-components of analysis, evaluation, and inferential, but it has not significant impact on component of inductive and deductive thinking. So, using of blended learning is one of the important factors of development and prosperity of nursing students’ critical thinking skills.
