A diagnosis of cancer represents a significant crisis for the child and their family. As the treatment for childhood cancer has improved dramatically over the past three decades, most children diagnosed with cancer today survive this illness. However, it is still an illness which severely disrupts the lifestyle and typical functioning of the family unit. Most treatments for cancer involve lengthy hospital stays, the endurance of painful procedures and harsh side affects. Many cancer patients experience a similar perfect storm of physical and emotional stress during treatment. This anxiety and worry can cause cracks in patients’ psychological and emotional foundation, leaving them even more vulnerable. To reduce Stress among children with cancer researcher conducted Art therapy sessions.
Anxiety perceived by children during venipunctureIJARIIT
Introduction: When it comes to paediatric patients undergoing venipuncture, it should be every phlebotomist’s nurse’s top goal
to reduce a child’s fear, pain, and distress. Most children have some fear of needles. When a child’s level of distress in
anticipation of the venipuncture is on the rise, it can be a rather difficult task for the nurse and parent to make the blood
collection process go over smoothly!
Methods: This study was conducted using a descriptive correlational design among 181 children who met the inclusion criteria
using purposive sampling technique. Data collection was done using Demographic, Clinical Variables Proforma and Modified
Venham’s Anxiety Scale.
Results: The findings revealed that 42.5% of the children had moderate anxiety, 7.7% had worst anxiety and 1.10% had no
anxiety during venipuncture. The study findings revealed significant association between the anxiety and age of the child at the
level of (P < 0.05)

The value of music therapy in the expression of emotions in children with cancerJavier González de Dios
Con respecto al proyecto de tesis que llevamos desarrollando en los últimos años en nuestro Servicio de Pediatría en relación con el valor de la musicoterapia en los pacientes pediátricos oncológicos, en sus familias y en los propios profesionales sanitarios que los atienden, hoy compartimos este artículo “The value of music therapy in the expression of emotions in children with cáncer” publicado en European Jounal of Cancer Care.
Os dejamos el artículo completo para su lectura, pero incluimos el resumen del mismo:
“Background. Children with cancer are subjected to aggressive tests and treatments that can affect their emotional states. Studies available in the academic literature analyse the effect of music therapy on the emotions of these patients are scarce.
Objectives. The objective of this study was to explore and transform the emotional responses that may arise with the application of music therapy (MT) in children with oncological pathology.
Methods. The methodology of this study was based on the participatory action research approach. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 27 children with cancer who participated in 65MT sessions. Interviews were also conducted with their families.
Results. We conducted a thematic analysis using MAXQDA software. Three main categories emerged from this process as follows: (1) expression: children with cancer stated that MT made it easier for them to express their emotions, with indirect benefits to families; (2) participation: patients showed interest in the sessions; and (3) experiences: MT was valued and created a positive environment. The results of this research demonstrate the positive transformative power MT had on children with cancer in terms of their emotions.
Conclusions. Positive results were achieved through MT that encouraged the expression of emotions by children with cancer and favoured and improved their moods. In addition, it also encouraged social interactions in the hospital and helped the children to better cope with their illness through self-awareness. Their families also benefited. Therefore, we encourage healthcare professionals to support the use of MT in paediatric oncology settings”.

Evidence-Based Practices & Nursing
Introduction
Normally, PICOT format is helpful in formulation of questions in an evidenced based clinical practice. PICOT generated questions generally fall under for main categories of clinical practices. These include; therapy, prevention, diagnosis, etiology as well as Prognosis. The essential elements in PICOT questions. The PICOT format is valuable in addressing research questions comprehensively. Five elements are normally addressed including; population, intervention, comparison, outcome and time as well (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Summary of Case Study
The ever increasingly high incidence of breast cancer conditions has posed serious challenges in the nursing profession. Provision of appropriate healthcare to the cancer patients has been lacking leading to adverse effects of the proliferation of cancerous cells which further worsen the conditions of the patients. As primary care, clinicians have the responsibility to stressing providing healthcare services within healthcare facilities as well as monitoring treatment in home based facilities to help manage cancer condition. Most cancer patient need clinicians who practice evidence-based clinical practices (Riva, Malik, Burnie, Endicott, & Busse, 2012).
Research Question
In cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, will they have better white blood cell count monitoring with a follow-up at home versus follow-up at a health care facility during their treatment?
PICOT Format
1) P-Population: Patients aged 18-60 years-old, breast cancer who have not received chemotherapy in the past six months are subjected to the treatment. Patients with other serious health conditions such as heart diseases were excluded in the study. 30 patients, with 15patients stationed at the healthcare facility while the other 15 patients receiving home-based care, are expected to take part in the study.
2) I -Intervention: The patients will receive dosage based on the age, sex and health general body health as well as the stage of cancer cells proliferation in the body. The patients are required take the prescribed drugs at regular intervals. The subjects will be subjected to treatment under the same during the research study.
3) C-Comparison: All the subject regardless of variations in their level of dose requirement will be subjected to the same treatment for the same duration, 3months. Standardized treatment will be given to subjects with no extreme variations in their level of dose requirement and would be used as an active control group. Using this strategy, it will be possible to minimize the non-specific effects due to a group of the patient receiving treatment within the healthcare.
4) O-Outcome: The response in chemotherapy treatments will be check by examining the numbers of defective cancerous cells in the body tissues. The patients will report to the theatre in order to be examined by an oncologist. The results will be recorded i ...
Due to a diversified society, many of modern people are under stress and anxiety which cause
mental illnesses. Moreover, the social costs of psychotherapy and solution is so high that it cannot be limited to
a problem for individuals realistically. In this paper, we implement an m-Health application that can provide
preemptive art therapy services to reduce social costs and medical expenses. The implementation of the mHealth
application for art therapy has an advantage that social consideration class (the elderly, post-traumatic
stress disorder, etc.) can get treatment without leaving records by receiving medical welfare service of art
therapy in conjunction with professional therapist. Consultation clients are treated through the visit of a
professional therapist and the recorded videos are transmitted to a professional psychotherapy center server if
clients agree to shooting and recording of the processes. Based on the outcomes derived from the consultation
processes, we aim to build a database of the medical records and the new treatment program and apply it to mHealth.
Therefore, we expect to establish the criteria of objectivity, quantify, accuracy and the automaticity of
psychological treatment analysis.
Abstract:
It is difficult to find in Spanish a word that can translate the meaning of Counselling and encompassing all those elements and nuances that you are your own. The translations more frequently used are "assisted advice" and/or "aid relationship" and/or advice, it also includes all the skills that are necessary to establish that interpersonal relationship.
Although the communication skills, and in particular communication of bad news and the relationship with users are currently not part of the university education within the degree in Medicine, Nursing, Physiotherapy or Psychology if it has been of concern on the part of practitioners in these areas present sufficient levels of training in this core competency. In fact, we presented/displayed a communication where the little information received in the own hospital on the part of parents with children with Syndrome of Down is reflected in particular on this genetic alteration before making decisions referred to the birth from the boy. Thus, just as the curative art is learned can be learned the abilities of communication referred the unexpected news, which will help to diminish the psychological cost for the professional and the own patient.

Critical Appraisal Essay
Title: To find the association between use of tobacco and alcohol and head and
neck/ Oral Cancer in South East Asia.
Name of student: Rajwant Kaur
Student ID: 00275380T
Name of topic co-ordinator: Dr. Bhawna Gupta
Topic: PUBH6005: Epidemiology
Introduction
The major risk factors for head and neck cancers are tobacco and alcohol consumption. Smoking
and alcohol are independent risk factor for head and neck cancer. Tobacco use can be chewing
tobacco, snuff and smoking tobacco. At least 75% of head and neck cancers are caused by
tobacco and alcohol use (NIH 2017). In developing countries like Southeast Asia, tobacco is used
in many forms along with alcohol consumptions. Areca nuts and betel leaf with or without
tobacco also cause cancers Other factors also increase the vulnerability of people for cancers
such as low education, low family income, poor oral hygiene and environment (Priebe et al.,
2008).
Awareness is virtually non-existence in the developing countries of Southeast Asia and therefore
people with rising affluence tend to buy more of tobacco products and thus increase their risks
for cancer. To prevent the cancers, the health organizations and health professionals should
focus on educating the people through various means to quit habits of tobacco use and alcohol
consumption. Regular screening is also important to detect the cancer at early stage (Priebe et
al., 2008).
Methodology
Method:
Three selected papers were evaluated and explained by NHMRC form, in which level of evidence,
bias, confounding factors and chances, clinical impacts, applicability are defined. CASP
framework with checklist that can explain or support in analyzing and justifying the questions
and characteristics.
Search strategy:
Before commencing critical appraisal of studies, I did systematic review on our research question
about identifying the association between use of tobacco and alcohol and head and neck/ Oral
Cancer in South East Asia. Systematic reviews apply strategies for eliminating biases and random
errors. They adhere to a scientific design for offering reliable, reproducible and defensible
conclusions. The evidences use more rigorous methodology /designs that minimize bias.
Systematic reviews incorporate results of multiple studies (Guide, 2018).
The literature search covered the studies applying alternative terminologies, like the terms sed
for education on cancer include Recommendation, Internet-based intervention on cancer,
teletherapy, etc.

How to Treat Cancer in Children

Introduction.
Cancer is an epidemic that is wiping out the world’s population at a very high rate; it is worrying to the society because cancer is now a problem that faces children most of the time. This is unlike in the previous years when cancer was associated with old age and older people. The number of children with these horrible disease has acutely risen (Situ, 2015).As (Evan,44) puts it cancer is a dangerous disease because of the fact that treatment of cancer only takes place when the patient takes precaution before getting worse. Doctors say that early detection of cancer helps the victims in dealing with the situation better unlike if it is detected at a later stage.
According to Evan (44) Cancer is a dangerous disease owing to the fact that its treatment only occurs when the affected takes precaution before the situations worsens. It is for these same reasons that physician’s advice that one should conduct frequent health checkups to take care of any possibility of developing cancer. Children who are affected especially those below the age of fifteen are usually subjected to clinical trials. To illustrate further, the treatment takes place in phases, older and newer methods of treatment are compared to see which one gives better results. Through this analysis, great care needs to be observed to elude giving wrong treatment to the children. In addition due to the delicate nature of treating children it is advised that treatment should take place in a cancer center where the children will be monitored and taken care of well. To add on at the cancer center guardian and parents will be taught on how to best handle their children. Cancer treatment process has clinical and scientific methodologies. There ...

P: Adults on an Acute Care floor
I: Required education on the Braden Scale
C: Standard Practice
O: Decrease in Hospital-Acquired Pressure Ulcers
PICOT QUESTION: Does the required education on the Braden scale increase nursing interventions for Adult patients on an acute care floor at risk of developing pressure ulcers during hospitalization?
Currently, most hospitals are faced with a clinical problem of acquired pressure ulcers. According to Pittman et al (2015), hospital-acquired pressure ulcers remain one of the persistent and relevant issues that need to be addressed in long-term hospital stay patients. Health care is attempting to implement evidence-based protocols, though patients continue to suffer from this prevalent and preventable injury. Health care institutions are facing a big challenge for the patients with this acquired condition because hospital bills continue to balloon and at the same time insurance companies stopped paying for this condition. Research shows that pressure ulcer is preventable; though, in spite of hospitals striving to integrate evidence-based approaches to curb the issue, it continues to remain a serious issue for long-term hospital stay patients. This PICOT statement this research paper is proposing to use is a Braden Scale which can be used by nurses in their practice to reduce hospital-acquired pressure injuries which will reduce the patient stay in the hospital as well as the bills burden in the hospital.
Evidence-Based
Solution
According to Engels et al (2016), “the importance of using evidence-based practice in long-term care hospitals to reduce prevalent pressure ulcers is to promote a safe cost-effective outcome for our patients, families, and the healthcare group. Research needs to be conducted and qualitative data collected when designing an evidence-based solution to hospital-acquired injuries”. Despite a lot of research being conducted from the past years concerning acquired pressure ulcers, many patients continue to get the disease. Evidence-based practice allows the nurse to get pooled in a team of experts where interdisciplinary collaboration becomes the ultimate objective for nurses to practice autonomy that enhances change in the nursing field based on data. “The nursing research utilizes qualitative and quantitative logical methods and an EBP approach aimed at around the study and change of patient consideration, understanding consideration frameworks, and patient results” (Mervis & Phillips, 2019). This PICOT question will effectively apply the Braden Scale to see how it can positively impact long-term hospital in reducing pressure ulcers injuries.

ABSTRACT- Background: Women of all races and ethnicities are at risk of cervical cancer. India, around 0.95 million new cases are detected yearly with high burden of 0.63 million. India bears about one fifth of the world’s burden of cervical cancer. Although fatality is high but cancers are largely preventable by effective screening programmes. Design: The present quasi-experimental study was conducted among female students studying in degree colleges from Feb. 2013 to Sept. 2013. Intervention: Educational intervention was conducted through sessions of participatory learning approach which included lectures using power-point, chalk and talk and question-answers method. Data was collected twice by administering predesigned questionnaire and conducting focus group discussion. Data Analysis: Data entered and analyzed using Epi Info 2000. To analyze qualitative information Atlas ti software was used. Paired t-test was used to measure the effect of intervention. Results: Total 149 students were the part of the study and successfully followed. Mean age of the participant was 18.5 years. Out of the 149 participants 4.1% had family history of the cancer. In the study it was observed that 18.8% had not ever heard about the cancer. In the post intervention test significant improvement was seen in all three parameters viz knowledge, attitude and practices. Conclusion: Continuing Educational interventions should be started at all level which highlights the importance of screening and prevention of cancer in women.

According to the WHO estimates, every year, 40 million people need palliative care. Amongst them, 78% live in low and middle-income countries. But worldwide, only 14% percent of those who need palliative care receive it (5). The need for palliative care keeps growing as modern medicine has led to increased life expectancy, resulting in a rise in the aging population and NCD incidence. Most of the governments in resource-limited settings are struggling to establish palliative care.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Abstract
A diagnosis of cancer represents a significant crisis for the child and their
family. As the treatment for childhood cancer has improved dramatically
over the past three decades, most children diagnosed with cancer today
survive this illness. However, it is still an illness which severely disrupts the
lifestyle and typical functioning of the family unit. Most treatments for cancer
involve lengthy hospital stays, the endurance of painful procedures and
harsh side affects. Many cancer patients experience a similar perfect storm of
physical and emotional stress during treatment. This anxiety and worry can
cause cracks in patients’ psychological and emotional foundation, leaving
them even more vulnerable. To reduce Stress among children with cancer
researcher conducted Art therapy sessions.

Statement of Problem
At least 10-12 children per 10,000 populations will develop cancer in India annually.
1.6 to 4.8% of all cancer in India is seen in children below 15 years of age and the
overall incidence of 38 to 124 per million children, per year. Childhood cancer
contributes to less than 5% of the total cancer burden in India, with approximately
45,000 children diagnosed with cancer every year. Childhood cancers cause of more
than 10% of all deaths in children below 15 years of age in developed countries.
Many studies in this area vibrantly tells that, children with cancer develop many
psychological and factors such as anxiety, depression, and stress so and hence it
should properly deal with effective intervention so that children with cancer can
have coping mechanism.

Outcome of the intervention
At the end of the Art therapy session it was consolidated that before the
intervention patient was in a heavy emotional trauma. It helped him to
know about his strength (Art skills).
The patient has a free mind of negative thoughts. He was able to share
his deepest secrets and felt light which also made him thank to the
researcher. This pictures clarity was accompanied by his verbal or
cognitive clarity. As like many of the people undergoing the therapy he
felt happy and delighted

Conclusion
There was an overall increase in coping resources among children with
cancer after taking part in the intervention. Significant differences were
seen between pretest score and post test score in stress. This study
shows that individual ―Art therapy provided by the researcher in a
clinical setting can give beneficial support to children with cancer
undergoing Chemo and radiotherapy, as it can improve their coping
resources.
