Post-treatment rehabilitation is a critical component of healthcare that significantly influences patient recovery and long-term outcomes. This review explores the interconnected roles of nurses and technicians in delivering effective post-treatment rehabilitation and its impact on patient satisfaction. Nurses play a vital role in patient education, monitoring, and emotional support, while technicians ensure the proper functioning of medical equipment and therapies. Through a collaborative care model, both healthcare roles contribute to improving service delivery and patient experiences.

O cenário de má nutrição estabelecido com a transição nutricional nas últimas décadas, com enfoque especial no sobrepeso e obesidade, configura-se como um importante problema de saúde pública. O estudo objetiva avaliar o estado nutricional de pré-escolares e sua relação com o consumo alimentar. Trata-se de um estudo de abordagem quantitativa, do tipo corte transversal alinhado a um ensaio clínico randomizado por clusters, realizado com 167 pré-escolares e seus respectivos responsáveis.

Abstract: Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are regarded as the most common adverse events in health care service delivery. Most Common types of HAIs includes Surgical Site infections (SSI), Urinary tract infections (UTI), Blood stream infections (BSI) and Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Adult inpatients in common specialties who developed hospital acquired infection (HAI) remained in hospital 2.5 times longer, incurred hospital costs almost three times higher. Present study aims to assess the prevalence and risk factors of health care associated infections in ICU.

Peripheral neuropathy is a debilitating condition characterized by damage to the peripheral nerves, which connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body. This comprehensive guide delves into the various symptoms and root causes of peripheral neuropathy, aiming to provide a thorough understanding for patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. The guide categorizes symptoms into sensory, motor, and autonomic types, highlighting common manifestations such as tingling, numbness, muscle weakness, and autonomic dysfunctions.

Drug allergies are a significant cause of adverse drug reactions (ADRs), affecting patient safety and healthcare outcomes. Early detection of drug allergies is crucial for preventing these reactions and improving clinical care. This systematic review explores the current methods of early drug allergy detection, including patient history, skin testing, in vitro tests, and emerging genomic approaches.

O Working in laboratories poses risks because they contain various agents that are harmful to the health of professionals, especially in activities that involve biological risk. Biosafety is indispensable in the daily lives of professionals working in laboratories, as it describes actions to prevent and minimize risks to human health and the environment.

In Ethiopia, field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is the main source of protein for resource poor growers. The improvement of varieties for yield and disease resistance is one of the important activities to support farmers and improve the productivity of the crop. Consequently, this study was showed to evaluate the genotypic correlations, phenotypic correlations and path coefficient analysis between the field pea genotypes for yield and yield associated traits. Forty-nine field pea genotypes were evaluated in simple lattice design at Asasa in 2019 cropping season.
