Facilitators and barriers to self-management in Iranian men with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a qualitative study.

Introduction: Self-management, as the most common method of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management, is not an isolated behaviour, but a set of physical, social, cultural, psychological and existential factors affecting it.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the facilitators and barriers to self-management in men with COPD in the unique social, cultural, political and economic context of Iran.

Methods: This paper reports part of the findings of a qualitative grounded theory study aimed at exploring the process of self-management in Iranian men with COPD, which was conducted in Iran from January 2019 to July 2023.

The effect of M technique massage on behavioral state and weight gain in preterm neonates: A randomized controlled trial.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of M technique massage on behavioral state and weight gain in preterm neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). This was a randomized controlled trial study in which a total of 64 preterm neonates were randomly allocated to intervention and control group. Intervention group received M technique massage and control group received routine care.

Childbearing culture: a prominent context in the process of maternal role attainment in Iranian mothers with preterm neonates.

Transition to the role of mothering is one of the most important events in a woman's life. While childbirth is a biological event, pregnancy and the experiences around it are more influenced by social structure, which is shaped by cultural perceptions and practices. The aim of this study was to explore cultural context during maternal role attainment in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Iran.

Self-reinforcement: Coping strategies of Iranian mothers with preterm neonate during maternal role attainment in NICU; A qualitative study.

Introduction: Having a preterm neonate in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is one of the most stressful experience for parents. In facing these stressors, mothers need to find ways to adapt and control resources to maintain stability. The aim of this paper is to report coping strategies of mothers with preterm neonate during maternal role attainment in NICU.

Maternal Role Attainment in Mothers with Term Neonate: A Hybrid Concept Analysis.

Background: A review of the literature shows that there is little consensus on the practical definition of maternal role attainment in the field of neonatal nursing care. The initial interaction between mother and neonate most often begins in the hospital and can be influenced by neonatal nurses, so it is necessary to clarify this concept in nursing. The purpose of this study was to show the basic characteristics and practical definition of maternal role attainment in mothers with term neonate in a new context.

Emotional disorganization: The prominent experience of Iranian mothers with preterm neonate: A qualitative study.

When a preterm neonate is born and needs to be taken care of in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the mother experiences a different process of mothering. A grounded theory study was conducted to explore the maternal role attainment in mothers of preterm infants. The authors of this paper report the most prominent experience of Iranian mothers with preterm neonates during their stay in the NICU that emerged as part of the process of maternal role attainment.

The effect of gentle human touch during endotracheal suctioning on procedural pain response in preterm infant admitted to neonatal intensive care units: a randomized controlled crossover study.

Background: Neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit are frequently subjected to painful procedures. Non-pharmacological pain control techniques are useful for reducing procedural pain. Touch as one of the aspects of developmental care used to reduce neonatal pain.

The association between health literacy, social support and self-efficacy in mothers of preterm neonates.

Background: Health literacy, social support and self-efficacy are important concepts in mothers of preterm neonates. The purpose of study was to determine the association between health literacy, social support and self-efficacy of mothers of preterm neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit.

Methods: This descriptive correlational study was conducted from November 2017 to January 2019 on 200 mothers of preterm neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of selected hospitals affiliated with Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.

The effect of facilitated tucking during endotracheal suctioning on procedural pain in preterm neonates: a randomized controlled crossover study.

Background: Premature infants not only feel and understand the pain, but also respond more intensively compared with term infants. Non-pharmacological methods of pain control are suitable to relieve pain in painful procedures. The facilitated tucking position is considered as a non-pharmacological method of pain control in infants; however, its impact on frequent and repeated procedural pain such as endotracheal suctioning remains to be studied.

The effect of facilitated tucking position during endotracheal suctioning on physiological responses and coping with stress in premature infants: a randomized controlled crossover study.

Objective: Premature infants respond more intensively to pain compared with term infants. Facilitated tucking position as a non-pharmacological method of pain in infants has been suggested; however, its effect on acute procedural pain such as endotracheal suctioning remains to be studied. This study examined the effect of facilitated tucking position during suctioning on physiological responses and coping with stress in premature infants.
