This study aims to examine, through the lens of Job Demands-Resources model, influence caring for COVID-19 patients on nurse's perception chronic fatigue, quality care, satisfaction at work and intention leave their organisation profession.Studies have examined how fear contributes mental, physical adjustment among nurses. To date, few studies been conducted examining with outcomes nurses.This is a cross-sectional survey involving 1705 frontline nurses licensed practical in Quebec, Canada....
Interdisciplinary teamwork (ITW) is deemed necessary for quality cancer care practices. Nevertheless, variation in ITW intensity among teams understudied, and quantitative evidence of the effect different intensities on patients' perceived experience limited. This study aims to compare patient-reported measures (PREMs) outpatients followed by characterized high vs. low intensity. The designed as an ex post facto quasi-experimental study. Participants (n = 1379) were recruited nine outpatient...
A multi-layered polydimethylsiloxane microfluidic device with an integrated suspended membrane has been fabricated that allows dynamic and multi-axial mechanical deformation simultaneous live-cell microscopy imaging. The transparent membrane's strain field can be controlled independently along two orthogonal directions. Human foreskin fibroblasts were immobilized on the surface stretched directions sequentially while performing Cyclic of cells induced a reversible reorientation perpendicular...
Background Telehomecare monitoring (TM) in patients with cancer is a complex intervention. Research shows variations the benefits and challenges TM brings to equitable access care, therapeutic relationship, self-management, practice transformation. Further investigation into these factors will improve implementation processes produce effective outcomes. Objective This study aims concurrently analyze evaluate effectiveness of for receiving anticancer oral therapy. The objectives are (1)...
Aims Expression of Heat Shock Protein-27 (HSP27) is reduced in human coronary atherosclerosis. Over-expression HSP27 protective against the early formation lesions atherosclerosis-prone apoE−/− mice (apoE−/−HSP27o/e) - however, only females. We now seek to determine if chronic over-expression a model advanced atherosclerosis both male and female mice. Methods Results After 12 weeks on high fat diet, serum levels rose more than 16-fold apoE−/−HSP27o/e mice, although females had higher males....
In coming years, patient-reported data are expected to play a more prominent role in ensuring early and efficient detection of healthcare system dysfunctions, developing interventions evaluating their effects on health outcomes, monitoring quality care from the patient's perspective. The concept responsiveness relates experience measures that focus system's response service users' legitimate expectations. We explored this an effort address unresolved issues related measuring interpreting...
This article discusses the case of a 47-year-old woman who underwent primary therapy with curative intent for breast cancer. The illustrates number failure events in transferring information and responsibility from oncology to care teams. emphasizes importance shared leadership, as multiple team members, dispersed time space, pursue their own objectives while achieving common goal coordinating survivors cancer transitioning across settings. Shared leadership is defined property comprising...
Three pharmacokinetic studies involving single oral doses of cefpodoxime proxetil in healthy volunteers are reported. The first study was to determine the absolute bioavailability cefpodoxime, second relationship between dose and parameters third compare pharmacokinetics young elderly volunteers. Half orally administered as tablet form reaches systemic circulation, while 80% absorbed is excreted unchanged urine. volume distribution large (32.3 l). were linear subjects after 100 200 mg doses,...
Physical forces arising in the cellular microenvironment have been hypothesized to play a major role governing cell function. Moreover, it is thought that gene regulation may be sensitive nuclear deformations taking place response extracellular over short and long timescales. Although responses mechanical stimuli timescales are relatively well studied, short-term poorly understood. Therefore, characterize instantaneous deformation of nucleus mechanically dynamic environment, we exposed MDCK...
The number of survivors breast cancer (bca) in Canada has steadily increased thanks to major advances care. But the resulting clientele face new challenges related survivorship. lack continuity care and side effects treatment affect resumption active life by bca, including return work (rtw). goal present article was outline gaps delay survivorship rtw pathway bca.This qualitative interpretative descriptive study recruited 9 bca province Quebec. Interviews were conducted at end treatments (n...
There have been reports of an interaction when theophylline and macrolides are given together, also carbamazepine is with macrolides. We compared the kinetics carbamazepine, alone then in combination roxithromycin. Roxithromycin had little effect on pharmacokinetics none roxithromycin can be either drugs without any need to alter dose.
Teamwork is a key component of the health care renewal strategy emphasized in Quebec, elsewhere Canada and other countries to enhance quality oncology services. While this innovation would appear beneficial theory, empirical evidences its impact are limited. Current efforts Quebec encourage development local interdisciplinary teams all hospitals offer unique opportunity assess anticipated benefits. These working hospital outpatient clinics responsible for treatment, follow-up patient...
Cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada. Early cancer diagnosis could improve patients' prognosis and quality life. This study aimed to analyze factors influencing elapsed time between first help-seeking trigger with respect three most common deadliest types: lung, breast, colorectal. paper presents qualitative component a larger project based on sequential explanatory design. Twenty-two patients diagnosed were interviewed, 2011 2013, oncology clinics four hospitals two populous...
Based on lessons learned from the evaluation of implementation an integrated oncological services network in Québec, this paper discusses following question: to what extent is strong clinical leadership a propitious means transforming health-care systems, especially when change leads significant evolution inter-professional and inter-organizational relations? Through qualitative case study, we analysed exercising by studying over time leaders' initiatives while trying understand sources...
