<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Canada’s legalization of recreational cannabis use (CU) has made even more evident the need for innovative interventions promoting lower-risk CU. Young adults 18 to 25 are age group with highest prevalence Protective behavioral strategies (PBS) have been proven help manage CU and reduce negative consequences. To date, few focused on PBS. fill this gap, a mobile application (app) prototype using PBS as means influencing was developed young adults. </sec>...
Objective The objective of this secondary analysis was to examine the relationships between a reduction in psychological distress and long-term cardiac outcomes post–myocardial infarction patients who participated randomized trial home-based psychosocial nursing interventions (the Montreal Heart Attack Readjustment Trial [M-HART]). Gender differences were considered. Methods We studied 433 (36.0% women) from M-HART treatment group received two home visits after achieving high score (ie, ≥5)...
Background and Research Objective: Heart failure (HF) patients experience frequent episodes of decompensation. While medication behavior change play a major role in maintaining physiological stability, patient adherence to self-care recommendations is not optimal. The Theory Failure Self-care helped understand the concepts chose model intervention. Conviction confidence are central factors facilitating self-care. Motivational interviewing (MI), which aims strengthen conviction confidence,...
Background— Hypertension is a leading mortality risk factor yet inadequately controlled in most affected subjects. Effective programs to address this problem are lacking. We hypothesized that an information technology–supported management program could help improve blood pressure (BP) control. Methods and Results— This randomized trial included 223 primary care hypertensive subjects with mean 24-hour BP >130/80 daytime >135/85 mm Hg measured ambulatory monitoring (ABPM). Intervention...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Cannabis use (CU) among young adults continues to be an important public health issue. Interventions support lower-risk CU during adulthood can improve outcomes. Mobile applications constitute a promising mode of service delivery. However, there is lack evidence-based apps specifically developed for adult cannabis users. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> The current study aimed evaluate the acceptability novel mobile app intervention (Joint Effort) and assess...
Short hospital stays for patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) reduce the opportunity risk factor intervention during admission. After discharge, cardiac rehabilitation can decrease recurrence of events by up to 25%. However, it remains underused.The aim this study was determine whether a nursing focused on individual ACS patients' perceptions their disease and treatment would increase enrollment after discharge.A total 242 admitted specialized tertiary center were randomized either...
Brief motivational interviewing (MI) can contribute to reductions in morbidity and mortality related coronary artery disease, through health behavior change. MI, unlike more intensive interventions, was proposed meet the needs of clinicians with little spare time. While provision face-to-face brief MI training on a large scale is complicated, Web-based e-learning promising because flexibility it offers.The primary objective this pilot study examine feasibility acceptability platform for...
This paper reports the development of a short version Caring Nurse-Patient Interaction Scale.Since 1980s several instruments have been developed to assess external aspects caring. They involve using an inductive process knowledge investigate underlying structure caring, and few reflect explicit caring theory. We Interactions Scale (CNPI-Long Scale) based on both deductive processes attitudes behaviours associated with Watson's 10 carative factors. Two issues led us abridge our original...
Abstract The purpose of this randomized trial was to determine whether coronary artery bypass graft surgery patients and their caregivers who received telehealth follow‐up had greater improvements in anxiety levels from pre‐surgery 3 weeks after discharge than did those standard care. Secondary outcomes included changes depressive symptoms patients' contacts with physicians. No group differences were noted symptoms, but the fewer physician ( p = .04). Female decreases care < .001), both...
ABSTRACT Background As many delirium manifestations (e.g., hallucinations or fears) are linked to patients' experiences and personality traits, it is suggested that interventions should be tailored optimize its management. The inclusion of family members, as part an intervention, has recently emerged a solution developing individualised patient care, but never been assessed in post‐cardiac surgery intensive care unit where almost half patients will present with delirium. Aims To assess the...
Emergency department (ED) visits are critical events for older adults, but little is known regarding their experiences, particularly about physical needs, the involvement of accompanying family members, and transition back to community.To explore experiences an ED visit among patients aged 75 older.In a mixed-methods study, cohort (or member) discharged from community was recruited 4 urban EDs. A week following discharge, structured telephone interviews supplemented with open-ended questions...
