The understanding of dynamic birth positions for women in labor and childbirth - A hybrid concept analysis.

Problem And Background: The assessment of advantages and drawbacks associated with varying birthing positions has predominantly centered around medical or technical considerations and few studies have accounted for a woman's ability to attune to her bodily instincts during labor and birth. The objective of this study was to define the concept of dynamic birth positions and its significance within the birthing process.

Methods: This hybrid concept analysis consisted of three phases: theoretical, fieldwork, and analytical.

Midwife-led quality improvement: Increasing the use of evidence-based birth practices in Uganda.

Background: Addressing the evidence-to-practice gap in midwifery is vital for improving maternal and newborn health outcomes. Despite the potential of involving midwives in quality improvement interventions to address this gap, such interventions are understudied. In a Ugandan urban hospital, midwifery practices with a significant evidence-to-practice gap have been identified as areas for clinical improvement.

Circadian clock gene polymorphisms implicated in human pathologies.

Circadian rhythms, ~24 h cycles of physiological and behavioral processes, can be synchronized by external signals (e.g., light) and persist even in their absence.

Experiences of co-producing person-centred and cohesive clinical pathways in the national system for knowledge-based management in Swedish healthcare: a qualitative study.

Background: When the 21 Swedish county councils decided to collaborate in the creation of a national system for knowledge-based management, patient participation was mandatory. Patient and next-of-kin representatives (PR) co-produced person-centred and cohesive clinical pathways together with healthcare professionals (HPR). Research on co-production in healthcare at the national level is scarce.
