knowledge and performance about the nursing care of patients with urinary catheters among nursing staff

The installation and care of urinary catheters is one of the tasks entrusted to nursing personnel, as the urinary tract is a passageway for the excretion of many hazardous wastes that are excreted with urine. Unfortunately, in some cases, the survival of this duct may require the installation of a urinary catheter. This procedure usually weakens the defenses of the natural urethra, and in some cases this may cause dangerous infections that may reach the kidneys; Accordingly, the nursing staff must work to relieve the discomfort associated with the urinary catheter; By performing this procedure according to the approved steps and protocols, this study aimed to identify the level of knowledge and performance of the nursing staff about the nursing care of patients with urinary catheterization among 46 nurses, who were selected by the convenient sample method. The data were collected using a questionnaire developed by the researcher himself. Where the study showed that 93.5% of the participants had a good level of correct information, and that 6.5% of them had a moderate level of correct information. The performance of 95.7% of them was good before starting the catheter installation, and during the installation the performance of 82.6% of them was good, while after the completion of the installation 89.1% of them performed well. The study recommended the development of a written protocol related to urinary catheter insertion and its indications to be implemented and patient education about it, and regular and continuous updating of evidence-based guidelines for nursing procedures.

A Comparative Study between Intravaginal Sponges and Prostaglandin Injection and their effect on reproductive performance in Awassi sheep

The objective of this study was to compare between two methods of estrus synchronization (progesterone-impregnated intravaginal sponges and intramuscular (IM) injection of prostaglandin hormone) within the reproductive season and their effect on some reproductive parameters in Awassi ewes. Thirty ewes were equally divided into two groups (G1 and G2). Intravaginal sponges impregnated with 60 mg of Medroxy Acetate Progesterone (MAP) were inserted into the ewes of the first group for 14 d, and were injected at the time of the withdrawal of sponges with 500 IU of equine Chorionic Gonadotrophin (eCG) at the first group ewes (G1). The animals in second group (G2) were injected with double dose of 125μg of prostaglandin (PGF2α) intramuscularly (IM) at 9 days apart. The ewes were naturally mated with fertile rams (ram / 5 ewes). The results showed that there were no significant differences between groups (G1 and G2) in the estrus response (100% and 86.67%, respectively), while there were significant differences in the average time to onset of estrus (38.8 ± 4.45 h and 53.07 ± 4.13 h) and the average duration of estrus (33.20 ± 3.09 h and 28.61 ± 3.59 h, respectively). Also, the pregnancy rate was significant difference (P<0.05) in group G1 compared to group G2 (93.33% vs. 73.33%). we conclude from the study that the estrus synchronization using intravaginal sponges is an effective method to achieve good reproductive performance ewes and get a high estrus rate and high pregnancy rate, compared to the injection of the hormone prostaglandin in Awassi ewes, within the local Syrian conditions.

A Comparative Study between Intravaginal Sponges and Prostaglandin Injection and their effect on Lambing rate and Birth rate in Awassi sheep.

The objective of this study was to compare the effect of using intravaginal sponges with intramuscular (IM) injection of prostaglandin hormone within the reproductive season and their effect on Lambing rate and birth rate in Awassi ewes. Thirty ewes were equally divided into two groups (G1 and G2). Intravaginal sponges impregnated with 60 mg of Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (MAP) were inserted into the ewes of the first group for 14 days, and were injected at the time of the withdrawal of sponges with 500 IU of equine Chorionic Gonadotrophin (eCG) at the first group ewes (G1). The ewes in second group (G2) were injected with double dose of 125 μg of prostaglandin (PGF2α) intramuscularly (IM) at 9 days apart. The ewes were naturally mated with fertile rams (ram / 5 ewes). The results showed that there were significant differences between groups (G1 and G2) in the Lambing rate (93.33% vs. 73.33%). The ewes of group (G1) outperformed the ewes of group (G2) in the percentage of twin births (42.86% vs. 18.18%), and the birth rate (1.43 vs. 1.18) with significant differences (P<0.05). We conclude from the study that treating ewes by using intravaginal sponges with eCG injection was better than the method of prostaglandin injection in raising the Lambing rate and birth rate in Syrian Awassi ewes, within the local Syrian conditions
