Factors influencing nurses’ knowledge acquisition of diabetes care and its management: A qualitative study
...Show More Authors
Aim

To identify and explore the factors nurses perceive as influencing their knowledge acquisition in relation to diabetes care and its management in Saudi Arabia.

Background

Diabetes continues to pose major healthcare challenges despite advances in diabetes management. Nurses have a crucial role in diabetes care, but diabetes knowledge deficits deter effective collaboration with other healthcare providers in educating patients about diabetes self‐management.

Design

An exploratory descriptive qualitative design.

Method

This qualitative study recruited 16 nurses from different specialty areas at a tertiary hospital in Saudi Arabia. Data were obtained through semistructured interviews and analysed using thematic analysis.

Results

Three main themes emerged: (a) diabetes care and education, (b) barriers affecting nurses’ acquisition of diabetes knowledge and (c) factors to support nurses’ acquisition of diabetes knowledge.

Conclusion

To pursue the goal of continued improvement in diabetes management in the challenging settings of acute care, there is a need to develop good practice in diabetes care among nursing professionals. Understanding of the complexity of factors that influence nurses’ knowledge acquisition in relation to diabetes care and its management provides clinical nurses and nursing managers with directions for future education, policy development and research.

Relevance to clinical practice

A range of suggestions are proposed to support the development of nursing education and practice in diabetes, including organisational and individual‐level strategies to offer and enable access to education programmes to maintain up‐to‐date knowledge and skills in diabetes and effective communication for optimal diabetes self‐management.

Clinical and Sonographic Changes of Parotid Gland in Patients with Type I and Type II Diabetes Mellitus and Its Effect on Physical Properties of Saliva
...Show More Authors

Background: Sialosis described as a specific consequence of diabetes. In diabetic sialosis, the increased volume of the glands is due to the infiltration of adipose in the parenchyma. The B-scan ultrasonography is a generally accepted tool for determining parotid gland enlargement. Oral health is, to a greater extent, dependent on quality and quantity of saliva, both of which may be altered in diabetics. This study was established to detect the enlargement of parotid gland in diabetic patient and study the changes in physical properties of saliva and its relation with the salivary gland enlargement. Subjects, Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study with highly specified criteria with ages ranged (20-65) years, male and female subject

Study Of Factors Affecting The Thermal Conductivity Of Iraqi Bentonite
...Show More Authors

Thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite is one of the most important properties where this type of clay is proposed for use as a buffer material. In this study, Lee's disc method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of compacted bentonite specimens. The experimental results have been analyzed to observe the three major factors affecting the thermal conductivity of bentonite buffer material. While the clay density reaches to a target value, the measurement is taken to evaluate the thermal conductivity. By repeating this procedure, a relationship between clay dry density and thermal conductivity has been established in specimens after adjusting the water contents of the bentonite by placing its specimens in a drying oven for diffe
