Effectiveness of an Educational Program upon Nurses’ Knowledge about Complications Reduction at the Peritoneal Dialysis Units
...Show More Authors

Objectives: The study aims at identifying the nurses’ knowledge about peritoneal dialysis complications, to
construct an education program for nurses in peritoneal dialysis units, to determine the effectiveness of the
education program upon the nurses' knowledge about complications of peritoneal dialysis, and to identify the
relationship between the nurses’ knowledge and their demographic characteristics of level of education and
years of experience.
Methodology: A quasi-experimentai study was carried out at the peritoneal dialysis units of Baghdad teaching
hospitals, from April 2004 to April 2006.
٨ purposive sample of (50) nurse was selected from Baghdad teaching hospitals. These nurses working at the
peritoneal dialysis units to provide nursing care for a patient who has undergone peritoneal dialysis.
The data were collected through the use of constructed questionnaire, which comprised of (56) item distributed
in (7)sections.
The reliability of the instrument was determined through test-retest and the validity through a panel study of
experts.
The data were analyzed through the application of descriptive statistical analysis that included (frequency,
mean, mean of scores, standard deviation, and percentage) and the application of inferential statistical analysis
that included (test for independent sample, test for dependent sample pre-test and post-test, pearson
correlation coefficient, Chi-square, and analysis of variance for the difference between pre-test, post-testi, and
post-test2 of the study group).
Results: The results of the study indicated that the education program had a positive impact on the knowledge
of nurses in peritoneal dialysis units regarding peritoneal dialysis complications and significant association was
identified between the nurses' knowledge relation to their education level at the study group (pre-test).
Recommendations: Based on the result of the study, the study recommended that Nurses who are working at
the peritoneal dialysis unit should be encouraged to participate in education program and training session for
their benefit of their practice in such units, in service continuing education program should be presented to
nurse at the peritoneal dialysis unit on a regular base to maintain their level of knowledge.

A Real-Coded Genetic Algorithm with System Reduction and Restoration for Rapid and Reliable Power Flow Solution of Power Systems
...Show More Authors

The paper presents a highly accurate power flow solution, reducing the possibility of ending at local minima, by using Real-Coded Genetic Algorithm (RCGA) with system reduction and restoration. The proposed method (RCGA) is modified to reduce the total computing time by reducing the system in size to that of the generator buses, which, for any realistic system, will be smaller in number, and the load buses are eliminated. Then solving the power flow problem for the generator buses only by real-coded GA to calculate the voltage phase angles, whereas the voltage magnitudes are specified resulted in reduced computation time for the solution. Then the system is restored by calculating the voltages of the load buses in terms

Symbolic significance and its effectiveness in industrial product design
...Show More Authors

The current research dealt with the symbolic significance and its effectiveness in the design of the industrial product, the aesthetic communicative discourse that embodies the imagination and human conscience. Whether according to what has been termed custom or what has been approved by traditions long ago, symbolism may be the main actor in linking the identifying components of the product. In addition, symbolism provides the user with the key to accessing a direct awareness of the product’s shape and function, as an identification of the product by stimulating the symbolic form of the consumer’s imagination and inviting him to To meditate in order to realize the implicit meaning behind these forms and thus achieve the symbolism of

This day, we see the Significant role that social media platforms play, it plays a vital role in shaping the Social, political, and economic awareness of individuals. The Iraqi Society, which is experiencing rapid cultural and social transformations, is considered a fertile ground for social media and its influences, whether negative or positive. Research and studies indicate that the negative use of social media will lead to weaking of the sense of belonging and citizenship among members of Iraqi society. This, in turn, threatens moral and educational values, increases feelings of family estrangement, and leads to social isolation.
