How Do Sleep Disturbances Relate to Daytime Functions, Care-related Quality of Life, and Parenting Interactions in Mothers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder?

Sleep disturbance is prevalent in caregivers and associated with negative physical, mental, and functional outcomes. This study examined the effects of sleep disturbance on daytime functions (sleepiness, fatigue, mood, cognitive alertness), care-related quality of life, and daily parenting interactions in 20 mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder for 10 consecutive days using ecological momentary assessment design. Participants responded about daytime functions four times and care-related quality of life and daily parenting interactions once using an online survey.

Preparing health professional students for interprofessional practice related to neurodevelopmental disabilities: a pilot program.

Many health professional students have insufficient general knowledge about individuals with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Students lack the expertise required to work with this population and their families. Interprofessional practice education (IPE) programs, designed for working with individuals with specialized needs and their families, are needed to improve overall care provided.

Relationships among parenting stress, health-promoting behaviors, and health-related quality of life in Korean mothers of children with cerebral palsy.

Health-promoting behaviors have been shown to enhance the quality of life across diverse populations. In this study, we examined the indirect effects of several health-promoting behaviors on the relationship between parenting stress and health-related quality of life in mothers of children with cerebral palsy (CP). A convenience sample of Korean mothers (N = 180) of children aged 10 months to 12 years with CP was recruited from clinical and school settings.

Assessment of Patient Safety and Cultural Competencies among Senior Baccalaureate Nursing Students.

This descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional study examined nursing students' educational experiences on self-reported perceptions of patient safety and cultural competence in terms of curriculum content and learning venues. We performed descriptive analyses and a one-way analysis of variance with a sample of senior-year nursing students (N = 249) attending three state universities in the United States. We used the Nurse of the Future Nursing Core Competency Model, the Patient Safety Competency Self-Evaluation Tool for Nursing Students, and The Cultural Competence Assessment Instrument.

Determinants of Health-related Quality of Life Among Mothers of Children With Cerebral Palsy.

Purpose: Caring for a child with cerebral palsy (CP) can impact both the physical and mental health of parents. However, determinants associated with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in these parents have yet to be adequately examined. The study aims were to identify the determinants affecting HRQOL among mothers of children with CP.

Differences in physical health, and health behaviors between family caregivers of children with and without disabilities.

Background: Providing care for children with disabilities can negatively influence the physical health and health behaviors of family caregivers.

Methods: This study compared chronic conditions and health risk behaviors across adult family caregivers of children with a disability (FCG-D) and family caregivers of children without a disability (FCG) living in a U.

[Comparison for risk estimate of aspiration between the revised dysphagia assessment tool and videofluoroscopy in post-stroke patients].

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the significant factors for risk estimate of aspiration and to evaluate the efficiency of the dysphagia assessment tool.

Methods: A consecutive series of 210 stroke patients with aspiration symptoms such as cough and dysphagia who had soft or regular diet without tube feeding were examined. The dysphagia assessment tool for aspiration was compared with videofluoroscopy using Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis.
