ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: An increase of access to knowledge about early detection techniques of breast cancer can reduce this mortality rate. This study aimed to determine the knowledge and source of information about early detection techniques of breast cancer among Iranian women. METHODS: Both International (PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar) and national (scientific information database [SID] and Magiran) databases were reviewed launching to September, 2017 to obtain related articles. Steps involving the screening, analysis of quality of the studies and extraction of papers were performed by two researchers. RESULTS: Of the 749 studies searched initially, 25 studies performed on 11,756 people were selected for the final stage. General knowledge for breast cancer screening among women ranged from 4.5% to 45%. The number of people with sufficient knowledge about breast self-examination in various studies was between 5% and 79.8%. The most important source of information was the Healthcare team. CONCLUSIONS: Considering the poor knowledge and different source of information, it is suggested that educational programs be conducted around the country especially in at-risk populations.

ABSTRACT

The most common treatment used for end-stage renal disease [ESRD] is hemodialysis. Although, this treatment caused may promote longevity, however, many complications may occur, such as nausea and vomiting. Body position during hemodialysis has an effect on nausea and vomiting episodes, patients who may lay in Semi fowler position during hemodialysis are able to communicate with circumstances comfortably, furthermore, with inner organ self arrangement into body in a semi-fowler position, the stomach discharges quickly. In this study, we assessed nausea and vomiting during hemodialysis, in two supine and semi fowler position. In this quasi-experimental study, one group [pre -post test],45 patients under hemodialysis in Zabol City, were placed in two positions and in each position, which took two sessions, controlled indexes for nausea and vomiting within each half hour and if changes occurred, in that moment controlled appeared. Nausea incidence, during hemodialysis did not have a significant difference within the two positions. Vilkaksons test showed significant difference [P<0/05] in frequency, duration and severity of nausea incidences in two positions, while these indexes in semi- fowler position were reduced. With Vilkaksion and Mac Nemar test, any significant difference between frequency, duration and severity of vomiting incidences did not exist. Regarding the finding that showed majority of nausea and vomiting indexes occurrences was similar in both positions, the other index was reduced in semi- fowler position. Furthermore, since this position has been more comfortable for patients, we would suggest using semi-fowler position with hemodialysis
