Assessment of Patients’ Knowledge Toward Total Hip Replacement Home – Care
...Show More Authors

To assess the total hip replacement patients’ knowledge of home – care regarding pain management, medication therapy, wound care, mobility limitation and complications may occur in the post hip replacement surgery, and to assess relationship between some variables such as, age level of education, sex & marital status with home- care knowledge. A descriptive study was used to assess the hip-replacement patient home-knowledge, a purposive sampling of (60) hip-replaced –patients were selected from Gazy Alhariri Hospital  (central of surgical profession ) and Alwasity Hospital ( plastic surgery) , the questionnaire  obtains two parts , part one, which included socio-demographical characteristics of the sample and part 2  , which included hip-replacement home-care  knowledge , reliability and validity of the questionnaire were determined . Data were collected through the use of the questionnaire, at the hip application of the interview techniques and review of the hip replacement surgery rehabilitation review literature. Data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential data approach.The result of the study presented that the majority of the study sample were group at age (25-35) years old, female married, housewife with (50%) of patients were at level of primary school education. They were lacking knowledge toward pain management at home and wound care , also discharged with very minimum information and rehabilitation training instruction toward practicing assistive walking and activity device or preventing potential complication such as infection and dislocation , Besides the study revealed a significant relationship between total- hip replacement knowledge toward complication may be occurred and level of education ,which revealed that the educated hip- replaced patients can managing and preventing the complication may occurred better than those not educated.Establishing a special rehabilitation unit in the ward to provide the patients with  a rehabilitation program for training , also to provide them with a booklet or pamphlet illustrating all  formations the patient may need at home.

Key words:  Total – hip replacement ,  patients’ knowledge of pain  , patients’-knowledge of potential complication  , patients' knowledge toward wound ,  patients’ knowledge of mobility.

Semantic Transformations of the Prisoner's Character in Contemporary Film
...Show More Authors

The cinematic medium consists of a group of elements that overlap with each other in balance, giving it its high influential capabilities, and the character is one of the most important of these elements, as it performs a set of important functions, foremost of which is the transmission of the main ideas to the recipient, and since cinema is an art closely related to the intellectual data of the worlds outside it, it is influenced by them and then reproduces them intellectually more deeply and with a higher vitality through its intermediate elements, including the character, to re-broadcast them to society with a retrograde movement, and the character of the prisoner is one of the cinematic characters that achieved this goal, as we can infe

Photodynamic Inactivation of Candida Albicans Sensitized by Malachite Green
...Show More Authors

The aim of this study is to investigate the ability of malachite green (MG) combined with 650nm diode laser to kill Candida albicans and to spectrally study the MG photodegradation after photodynamic therapy (PDT) spectrally. Cultures of Candida albicans were exposed to 40mW, 650 nm diode laser in the absence of MG. In PDT group, the MG was added to the Candida suspension for 5 min then exposed to diode laser for (5, 10, 15, 20) min at power density of 0.59W/cm2. The absorption spectrum of the photosensitized fungal suspension was obtained. The data were submitted to T-test (p<0.05). A 650nm diode laser in the presence of MG reduced the number of CFU/ml in 98.4%. Laser with 650nm alone and MG alone did not reduce significantly the num

FREE VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF NOTCHED COMPOSITE LAMINATED CANTILEVER BEAMS
...Show More Authors

The present work divided into two parts, first the experimental side which included the
measuring of the first natural frequency for the notched and unnotched cantilever composite beams
which consisted of four symmetrical layers and made of Kevlar- epoxy reinforced. A numerical
study covers the effect of notches on the natural frequencies of the same specimen used in the
experimental part. The mathematical model for the beam contains two open edges on the upper
surface. The effect of the location of cracks relative to the restricted end, depth of cracks, volume
fraction of fibers and orientation of the fiber on the natural frequencies are explored. The results
were calculated using the known engineering program (ANSY

Purification of Aqueous Solutions from Nickel Using Ceramic Waste
...Show More Authors

This study aims to test ceramic waste's capacity to remove nickel from aqueous solutions through adsorption. Ceramic wastes were collected from the Refractories Manufacturing Plant in Ramadi. Through a series of lab tests, the reaction time (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 minutes, and Ni concentrations (20, 40, 60, and 80) were tested using ceramic wastes with a solid to liquid ratio of 2g/30ml. At a temperature of 30ºC, the pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), and electrical conductivity (EC) were all measured. The equilibrium time was set at 30 min. Thereafter, the sorption (%) somewhat increased positively with the Ni concentration. Freundlich's equation showed that the adsorption intensity is 1.1827 and the Freundlich c

Studies on the Moisture Dependent Physical Properties of Cowpea
...Show More Authors

Cowpea is a very important legume in Nigeria that is being utilized to Substitute high-cost animal protein for low-income people. The knowledge of some physical properties of various moisture contents is of utmost importance in the design of its handling and processing equipment and machinery, which is the aim of this work, which studied the physical properties of IT99K-573-1-1 (SAMPEA14) variety of Cowpea within 8.77 to 21.58 % db moisture content. The properties studied include Major, Intermediate, and Minor diameters, Sphericity, Surface area, Specific gravity, Volume, Bulk density, 50-tap density, 100-tap density, 1250-tap density, seed mass, Angle of repose, Geometric mean diameter, and Arithmetic mean diameter.

Some electrical properties of PVA:PEG/MnCl2 thin film composites
...Show More Authors

PVA:PEG/MnCl2 composites have been prepared by adding (MnCl2) to the mixture of the poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) and poly ethylene glycol (PEG) with different weight percentages (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10) wt.% by using casting method. The type of charge carriers, concentration (nH) and Hall mobility (μH) have been estimated from Hall measurements and show that the films of all concentration have a negative Hall coefficient. In D.C measurement increase temperature leads to decrease the electrical resistance. The D.C conductivity of the composites increases with the increasing of the concentration of additive particles and temperature. The activation energy decreases for all composites with increasing the concentration of the additive particles.
