Heart failure is defined as an abnormal condition that includes the failure of the heart pump to pump blood throughout the body optimally and it represents 23% of all diseases affecting the heart, eating a healthy diet helps prevent and treat this disease. the dietary information and practices of patients with chronic heart failure are the key to the treatment plan, especially for patients with advanced complications. and for that, the present study was conducted on a sample of 50 patients with heart failure. The results showed that (74%) of the patients in the study had a good level of knowledge related to their diet, and (52%) of them have an verage level of practices related to this diet, the researcher recommended to continuously monitor and follow up the knowledge and practices of heart failure patients in order to evaluate them continuously.

Diabetes is one of the most important health challenges in the world in the twenty-first century, and a healthy diet and changing bad eating habits can help prevent and treat this disease. The information of the nursing staff about the diet for type II diabetics is important to the treatment plan, especially in patients who suffer from advanced complications. To assessment this information, the current descriptive study conducted on an convenient sample of 50 working nurses in Tishreen University Hospital, which showed that (80%) of the nurses have a good level of information related to the diet of type II diabetics patients, (14%) of them have a moderate level of information, and (6%) of them have a poor level of information, and the researcher recommended working on regular and continuous updating of the evidence-based guidelines for the diabetes diet to help the health care providers concerned with providing health services to patients with diabetes.
Background: longitudinal and radial systolic function are weakened by cardiac diseases and longitudinal one is weakened first. Assessment of left ventricular LV systolic function is important in management and prognosis of cardiac diseases. Mitral annular displacement MAD is used to assess LV longitudinal and global systolic function. Objectives: To validate the accuracy of MAD assessed by Doppler tissue imaging DTI and m-mode echocardiography MME as a surrogate for determination of LV systolic function in pationts with ischemic heart disease and/or heart failure, and maybe easy and fast way instead of conventional echocardiography assessment of LV function. This way permits to study the function of LV longitudinal cardiac fibers function while the conventional ways of echocardiography assesses the circumferential shortening. Patients and methods: We studied a series of 96 patients (men and women) with (ischemic heart diseases,heart failure) divided into three age groups and compared with another 59 healthy age matched volunteers as a control group. We selected subjects from AL ASSAD hospital /LATAKIA over the year 2014. A medical history, whole medical examination, ECG, conventional echocardiography were made to each subject. Ejection fraction EF of LV, Doppler recording of the mitral inflow, MME and pulse wave Doppler tissue imaging PW DTI data (from each four sites of mitral annulus, anterior, septal, lateral and inferior) were obtained. Mean peak systolic velocity (S wave), mean annular early diastolic velocity (e') by PW DTI and mean mitral annular displacement (MAD) by MME were calculated by averaging of values measured at each annular site. Results: MAD correlate well with LV EF, mean MAD < 11.275 mm determined by MME has 85% sensitivity and 87.8% specificity and 85.8% accuracy for detection of LV EF < 50%, Mad was low in patients with infarctions and lower in pationts with heart failure. Conclusion: Mean MAD connect with a positive relationship with LV EF and can detect the abnormal systolic motion on the long axis. That means the ability to detect the ischemia in early stages.
Widespread use of chemotherapy in the treatment of cancer has lead to higher health hazards among nurses who handle and administer such drugs, so they should know how to protect themselves from effects of chemotherapy. Objective of study was to ass ess knowledge and practices of nurses for safe handling chemotherapy in latakia City. the data was collected by using questionnaire including demographic information and safe handling chemotherapy knowledge and practices and barriers of personal protective equipment . Results of this study showed there more than two to third of nurses had no knowledge that chemotherapy enter the body through contaminated foods, about practices of them more than three quarter didn't change of personnel protective barriers after contact with chemotherapy. also Results showed there a significant negative association between knowledge and practices. Moreover, It is showed there a significant negative association between practices and barriers .Most of the study sample had moderate level of knowledge and practices of safe handling chemotherapy. So it is necessary that Chemotherapy Safety health education program should be instituted for all oncology nurses who are working in oncology unit.
Injuries are the first leading but predictable, avoidable and preventable cause of death among under five-year children worldwide. the aim of this study was to assess Mothers Knowledge, and Practices about First Aid for Home-Related Injuries among Children less Than Six Years.
Pleural effusion is a common clinical condition. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is the most frequent cause of pleural effusions, which typically are transudates, but occasional patients with CHF are found to have exudates in the absence of an appa rent cause other than CHF, and the presence of CHF does not always explain exudative effusions in those patients. We aimed to determine the incidence, clinical significance of such exudative effusions and to study the effects of diuretics on characteristics of pleural fluid in patients with CHF accompanied with pleural effusion.
