Nurs Rep
December 2024
Faculty of Medicine, Transilvania University of Brasov, 500036 Brasov, Romania.
Background: In the last decades, there has been a growing demand for outpatient services; understanding the factors influencing patient satisfaction is critical for improving healthcare quality.
Objectives: This study evaluates patient satisfaction with nursing care and examines how satisfaction varies based on socio-demographic factors in ambulatory settings across five healthcare centers in the municipality of Vlora, Albania.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 246 patients were surveyed using the Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire (PSNCQQ), adapted for outpatient contexts, after assessing its validity and reliability.
Blood pressure variability as predictor of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity in patients with Multiple Myeloma.

Division of Internal Medicine, Candiolo Cancer Institute, FPO-IRCCS, Turin, Italy.
Blood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular (CV) events. The role of BPV in defining risk of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT) is currently unknown. The aims of this study were: (i) to evaluate BPV in a population of patients with Multiple Myeloma, undergoing proteasome inhibitors therapy; (ii) to assess the predictive value of BPV for CTR-CVT; (iii) to analyze clusters of subjects based on BPV.

JMIR Res Protoc
January 2025
Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, United States.
Background: Personalized approaches to behavior change to improve mental and physical health outcomes are needed. Reducing the intensity, duration, and frequency of stress responses is a mechanism for interventions to improve health behaviors. We developed an ambulatory, dynamic stress measurement approach that can identify personalized stress responses in the moments and contexts in which they occur; we propose that intervening in these stress responses as they arise (ie, just in time; JIT) will result in positive impacts on health behaviors.

January 2025
Department of Pediatric Surgery, Inselspital University Hospital, Bern, CH, 3010, Switzerland.
Background: Children often experience anxiety and pain during minor surgical procedures, prompting the search for effective pain management strategies beyond traditional pharmaceutical approaches. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of virtual reality (VR) as a pain reduction method in pediatric outpatient surgical interventions compared to the standard use of nitrous oxide. The research questions explore pain reduction levels, patient preferences, enjoyment during VR use, and the time limit of the VR application.

J Res Pharm Pract
December 2024
Department of Pharmacy, Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.
Objective: Due to high workloads and insufficient counseling time in ambulatory care pharmacy, outpatient pharmacists for pediatric patients in China proposed a mobile health application (mHealth app) that they considered could provide patient counseling more efficiently. To improve it accordingly, we need to design a more specific and multi-dimensional evaluation method to obtain pediatric caregivers' evaluations of a mHealth app.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey on five dimensions (transmission, accuracy, accessibility, completeness, and experience) of the mHealth app was conducted using a random questionnaire among outpatient caregivers at a children's hospital.
