Objectif : Cette étude examine les systèmes de soutien et les besoins des frères et sœurs des jeunes touchés par un cancer, mettant en lumière les défis émotionnels et informationnels auxquels les frères et sœurs sont confrontés. Ce domaine a reçu relativement peu d'attention. Devis et méthodologie : Des entretiens qualitatifs ont été menés et une analyse thématique a été utilisée pour obtenir des perspectives approfondies sur les expériences et les points de vue des frères et sœurs. Bien que la taille relativement petite de l'échantillon de l'étude et l'homogénéité des participants soient reconnues comme des limites, l'approche présente plusieurs forces, notamment la pertinence et la diversité des participants dans les cohortes d'âge. Résultats : Les résultats soulignent le rôle essentiel des professionnels de la santé, en particulier des infirmières pour fournir du soutien émotionnel et informationnel aux frères et sœurs. Une approche centré sur la famille, un soutien psycho- social, et des interventions personnalisées sont recommandés pour répondre de manière efficace aux besoins spécifiques de la fratrie. Conclusion : Dans l'ensemble, cette étude met en lumière l'importance de reconnaître et de répondre aux besoins de soutien des frères et sœurs dans les soins en oncologie pédiatrique, en mettant en avant leur rôle en tant que composante essentielle du système familial. Cette étude souligne l'importance de fournir un soutien à la fratrie pendant et après l'expérience du cancer.

Introduction: students worldwide receive little training on blood transfusion therapies during their time at medical schools and hospitals, then reformulation of academic programs is mandatory. Indications for blood transfusions are more frequent than recommended, which helps to increase the risks associated with this procedure. To overcome this, structured objective training on nursing care and procedures was organised with the topic of transfusion safety. The purpose of our study was to assess medical students' appreciation of this training and the degree to which this population had mastered it. Methods: we conducted a cross-sectional, descriptive, singlecentre study. We conducted a survey among the 3rd-year medical students. A self-administered assessment questionnaire, as well as an evaluation grid for acquired skills, filled in by the training doctors during the session, were used. Data analysis was based on descriptive statistics using Excel software. Results: three hundred and eightyfour (n=384) students were invited to attend this training course, 275 (71.6%) of whom were enrolled in the study. The overall satisfaction rate was 93.8%. The objectives and organisation were 95.6% successful. The quality of the training was 90.3% satisfactory. The choice of topic for the station was satisfactory for 80% of participants, the flow of the session for 86.3%, the quality of the organisation and debriefing for 89%, the interaction between trainers and learners for 90.2%, the motivation of trainers and the reflection stimulated in the learners for 92%. We noted that 93% of students had never participated in training in transfusion safety. Mastery of global skills was total for 67%, partial for 26% and absent for 7%. The students mastered the procedures forchecking the identity and grouping of the product to be transfused at 97%, the principle of interpreting the ultimate pre-transfusion test (96%), the purpose of ultimate test at the patient's bedside 93% with mastery of its technical implementation 83%. Conclusion: training in transfusion safety was well received, with a satisfactory level of proficiency. This experience can easily be extended to other topics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Le gouvernement du Québec a investi dans une offensive de transformation numérique. Elle vise à accélérer le virage technologique de plusieurs secteurs d’activités incluant celui de l’enseignement. Pour les universités, cette décision se traduit par un rehaussement de l’intégration pédagogique des technologies de l’information et des communications (TIC). D’ailleurs, dans plusieurs cas, ces TIC rejoignent les personnes dans leur manière d’apprendre. Parmi ces nouvelles méthodes pédagogiques, nous retrouvons la simulation clinique par réalité virtuelle (SimRV), constituant un exemple d’actualisation des approches technopédagogiques au service de l’apprentissage. En reprenant des scénarios de simulation clinique traditionnels, la SimRV amène la personne, par le biais d’expériences immersives, à réaliser des simulations qui, autrefois, nécessitaient l’accès à une structure formelle. Bien que cette approche soit récente, plusieurs avenues viennent lui conférer un grand potentiel d’application. Une équipe de la Faculté des sciences infirmières de l’Université Laval a testé ce potentiel dans un projet exploratoire de simulations interactives par vidéo 360 degrés interactive, dans le programme de deuxième cycle de formation des infirmiers praticiens spécialisés. Cet article présentera les avantages, les limites et les enjeux identifiés pour une intégration pédagogique réussie de cette nouvelle technologie.

Oral hygiene is essential for a healthy quality of life. The main aim of the study carried out in oncogeriatrics at Amiens University Hospital was to test the Oral Health Assessment Tool (Ohat) score as a means of assessing patients' oral health status, in order to optimize referral criteria for odontological care. Significant correlations were found between the Ohat score and the frailty scales specific to geriatric assessment., (Copyright © 2024. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.)

Background: Informed consent (IC) is an ethical and legal obligation protected by constitutional rights to bodily integrity, well-being, and privacy in South Africa. The National Health Act 2003 codified IC regulations, requiring that all healthcare professionals inform patients about diagnosis, risks, benefits, options, and refusal rights while factoring in patients’ language and literacy levels. Objectives: This study’s primary aim was to determine the extent of South African professional/staff nurses’ compliance with current IC regulations and ascertain sociocultural impediments impacting proper IC practice. Methods: A cross-sectional survey using semi-structured questionnaires was used to evaluate knowledge and practice of IC among nurses in KwaZulu-Natal province. Data were analyzed using SPSS, v.21. Descriptive statistics, chi-squared tests, and content analysis were used to compare nursing domains. Results: Three hundred fifty-five (355) nurses, 92% females, with 1 to 41 years of professional experience, completed this study. Information disclosed by nurses to patients included diagnosis (77%), treatment benefits (71%), risks (69%), recommendations (65%), risks of refusal (80%), and right of refusal (67%). Nurses (80%) felt information disclosure was adequate, while 85% reported that patients understood disclosed information. Conclusions: Nurses practicing in local public hospitals had moderate knowledge of IC regulations. Practical implementation appeared deficient. Barriers to IC included language, workload, time constraints, lack of interpreters, and skewed gender norms in the nursing profession. Nurses require continuing professional education in healthcare law and ethics, a “corps of trained interpreters”, and gender transformation in the nursing profession to improve IC practice and overall quality of healthcare service delivery in South Africa.

Pain is a phenomenon with which nurses are frequently confronted in their clinical activities. Although there are now many resources available for assessing and treating it, their implementation is sometimes hampered by the sometimes difficult contexts of practice. Nursing research produces a substantial and evolving body of knowledge that nurses can mobilize in their clinical reasoning in order to seek to understand the patient's situation in its singularity so as to better act with the dual objective of relevance and effectiveness of care interventions.

Safety during drug administration remains a major concern in nursing, particularly when it comes to calculating doses. The Institut et Haute école de la santé La Source in Lausanne, in partnership with the Avatarion company, has set up a co-development project using the humanoid robot Pepper as an assistant for double-checking dose calculations. Feedback from test users has been positive, although there is room for improvement., (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)

In anorexia nervosa, physical and psychological vulnerability confines the sufferer to the confines of his or her pathology. The physical body is the first victim of undernutrition, but also the first resource for restoring the psychic and emotional body. Reduced food intake has repercussions on cognition and affect, all of which affect relational capacities. Accompanying, understanding and caring for people means reaching out to them and their bodies, to re-establish the link between what has been broken, and to establish a relationship of trust with them., (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS.
