Radiocontrast-induced nephropathy, is becoming increasingly common cause of Acute kidney injury (AKI).The aim of the present prospective study was to find out the incidence and outcome of CIN in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Over a one year period [2014]. At al-Assad university Hospital-Syria. 54 patients , satisfied the criteria for entering into the study.Median age was 56 yr All were followed for development of acute renal failure. The incidence was found to be 22.2 % .12 developed some evidence of acute renal failure .4 required dialysis acutely. There were 2 deaths. and pre existing renal impairment is one of the risk factors for developing contrast induced nephropathy. Serum Creatinine should be measured routinely in all patients who are scheduled form coronary angiography.

The empty sella syndrome (ESS) is an asymptomatic radiological syndrome, affecting 6% of post-menopausal women and can be seen in all ages. The results were similar with other studies in many respects, such as a wide age spectrum including childre n, and the occurrence of diabetes insipidus in 5.97%. The results of our study were discordant with other studies with respect to hyperprolactinemia which reached 58.2% in our study (in other studies did not exceed 33.7%). No concurrent cases of secretory pituitary adenomas were found (studies refer to an incidence of acromegaly and Cushing’s syndrome in 2.6% of ESS for each). We did not record CSF rhinorrhea nor were visual disturbances seen in our cohort. Patients received symptomatic treatment and none were referred to surgery.
Compliance of health care workers to adhere to correct hand hygiene is reported to be poor in many countries although the techniques involved in hand hygiene are simple. This study yielded interesting findings regarding knowledge and behavior among a sample of 30 nurses in Al-assad university hospital in Lattakia. Nurses received a self administered paper questionnaire on knowledge and practices of hand hygiene at their workplace and were observed during their work. Only (14 %) of participants had very good knowledge about hand hygiene, with a significant difference in the level of knowledge according to the level of education as respondents with university degree were more likely to correctly identify the proper way of hand hygiene compared to those nurses who have a lower level of education. On the other hand, the overall hand hygiene compliance among nurses is 30%. Some of the key parameters associated with noncompliance have been clearly identified. Hand washing hygiene is a cheap and primary infection control procedure. Therefore, the study suggests some improvement by continuous education during shifts, seminars and posters, ensuring the availability of adequate hand washing utilities like soap, water taps, drying tissues and reducing work load to improve nurse to patient ratio.
Technological development and intense competition in this sector bring out the need for more accurate cost information. Sound cost information will impact upon the quality of accounting reports and the ability of management in making decision, whi ch in turn depends on selecting suitable costing techniques. This research discusses the possibility of applying process based costing system on the heart disease department at al-assad hospital in lattakia. Results of this research showed application PBC system requirements, The difficulties faced by the non-search data availability.
Introduction: As nursing develop with regard to science, knowledge & practice and nursing responsibilities increase, critical thinking- the ability to question and make rational decisions- becomes even more important. Whereas, critical thinking requi res that all thoughts and actions be examined objectively, in patient care almost all actions require decision making, and problem solving. Critical thinking is an essential element in decision making which involves choices, and problem solving which requires analysis. Through critical thinking skills, a nurse manager can become a transformational leader. She can challenge the routine nursing practices now, develop a more robust understanding of any problem underlying causes, and develop her leadership skills as well as develop more creative solutions when using critical thinking. Although, critical thinking skills are more important but there were few studies both English and Arabic and there was no study in Syria concerned with critical thinking skills that must used by nurse mangers to do their role effectively, for that this study was conducted and aimed to assess critical thinking skills of nurse managers in Al- Assad university hospital and Al- Wattany hospital in Lattakia.
