ABSTRACT
@#Introduction: Breast cancer is a contributing factor to women’s death. Mammography screening uptake is low in Islamic countries compared to non-Islamic countries. In Saudi Arabia, a first step is to develop an appropriate intervention at workplace to increase mammography screening rates, this review was conducted to update current knowledge on the effectiveness of existing workplace interventions to enhance mammography screening uptake in Saudi Arabia. Methods: A systematic review and narrative syntheses was conducted. All studies that assessed the effectiveness of workplace interventions to increase mammography screening uptake among female employees were included. This review was registered on PROSPERO with the number CRD42021281744. Results: Three studies were included. All the studies evaluated a workplace educational intervention aiming to increase mammography screening uptake. It was found that workplace-based interventions increase breast mammography screening uptake while the effectiveness of the existing workplace intervention remains questionable and further research is warranted to improve our understanding of how we can successfully improve mammography screening among women in Islamic countries. Conclusion: This review has demonstrated that the effectiveness of the existing workplace interventions to increase mammography screening uptake remains unclear. It was also found that no studies about workplace interventions in Islamic countries.
ABSTRACT
@#Aims: Aims: When attending family members, the procedure for the resuscitation of cardiac arrest patients remains controversial. There have been conflicts on why healthcare professionals, should include the family during resuscitation. This systematic review seeks to identify the barriers and facilitators related to the FWR of adult patients at Emergency Department. Design: A systematic review was conducted on ten studies. This review utilized a clearly formulated research question then the data was gathered and analysed from the included studies. Data Source: Studies on the barriers and facilitators related to allowing family members to attend were included during January 2020 to May 2020. Methods: A systematic review of studies that investigate the barriers and facilitators of the FWR of adult patients at emergency department. All studies evaluated the barriers and facilitators related to allowing family members to attend cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This systematic review was registered in PROSPERO with the registration number CRD42020169383. Results: This review has demonstrated that the facilitators reduce conflict and provide a supportive presence that builds the emotional adequacy and closure related to the resuscitation. These policies can eliminate barriers, such as conflicts in EDs and negative attitudes, and expedite the accommodation of the professional as well as individual staff’s needs during witnessed resuscitation.
