Background: Myocardial Infarction (MI) is a common presentation of ischemic heart disease. Health education programs can improve the outcomes for different chronic conditions. An important mechanism in improving health status for participants in health education programs is the patient self-efficacy. Aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an educational program on self-efficacy of patients with MI. Subjects & Methods: Research Design: A quasi experimental research design was used. Setting: The study was conducted in cardiac units of Cardiothoracic Hospital and outpatient cardiac clinic at Zagazig University Hospitals. Subjects: composed of fifty adult patients, purposeful selected from both sexes according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Tools of data collection: Three tools were used to collect the data; interviewing assessment questionnaire, needs assessment questionnaire and self-efficacy scale. Results revealed that, the highest percentage were male more than 50 years, 92.5% having co-morbid disease mainly hypertension. There were statistically significant improvements in patients’ knowledge, patients’ practice and self-efficacy (p < .001) which continued through follow-up. Conclusion: The study demonstrated statistical significant improvement of patients' knowledge, practices and their self-efficacy in post and follow up program phases compared to pre program phase, but some slight decline occurred in the follow up program phase compared with post phase. Recommendations: Self-efficacy of patient should be more considered and evaluated during the plan for treatment by trained nurse.

Background: IDA is a preventable disease but its consequences can’t be prevented or treated easily. Aim of the study: to evaluate the impact of management protocol on pregnant women with IDA using health promotion model (HBM) through changing their perception and behavior regarding the risk of IDA. Subjects and Methods: Research design: A quasi-experimental design. Setting: the study was carried out in El-nahaal MCH Center in Zagazig. Subjects: a representative sample of 180 pregnant women diagnosed with IDA . Tools of data collection: Six tools were used in data collection namely: An interview questionnaire form, Assessment of women knowledge, Observation checklist for assessing women dietary habits and cooking practices, HBM constructs, follow up assessment record & an educational health program. Results: According to their mean hemoglobin level before and after the intervention, it is obvious that the mean hemoglobin level did statistically increase (p=0.001*) among the study group after the second and third visit compared to those in the control group, There's was statistically significant improvements in the mother knowledge about IDA at the post-test from only 7.0% at the pre-test to the majority of women (85.0%) at the post-test compared to those in the control group. Statistically significant improvements in the study group at the post-test regarding the level of perception about IDA compared to those in the control group. Conclusion: low level of perceiving risk of IDA is associated with poor dietary practices as a preventive behavior. Using HBM to change pregnant women’s behavior and dietary practices; produce significant changes at post intervention assessment, in the level of pregnant women’s perceptions regard the risk of iron deficiency anemia. Recommendations: further study should be conducted, using a sample with a large size, different levels of IDA and in different geographical settings to generalize the study result.

Background: Understanding the behavioral antecedents and consequences of magnet practices would be useful in promoting its beneficial adoption in the healthcare system. Aim of the study: To assess „Magnetism‟ in nursing practice environment at Fayoum University Hospital. Subjects and Methods: Research design: a cross-sectional descriptive design Setting: The study was carried out at Fayoum University Hospital Subjects: Stratified random sample of 160 nurses working at Fayoum University Hospitals. Tools of data collection: A self-administered questionnaire including the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index (PES-NWI) tool was used for data collection. Results: Findings revealed that the sample had more female nurses (52.5%), with age range 21 to 59 years, with 79.4% having technical institute diploma. The absence days ranged between 2 and 63, with median 16 days. The intention to leave the work in the hospital was 32.5%. Conclusion: More than a half of the nurses view their workplace as magnet hospital. The agreement is highest upon the relations between nurses and physicians, and lowest upon the sufficiency of staffing and resources. The agreement is significantly related to gender, age, and residence, qualification, and experience years. The intention to leave is higher among males, unmarried nurses not living with their families. Improvements in work environment are needed to retain these nurses. Recommendations: The study findings be used to highlight the positive and negative magnet features to establish a profile of magnetism for the facility, with more focus on the dimension of staffing and resources. Strategies to improve staff retention are urgently needed, especially for vulnerable ones. A better understanding of the Egyptian nursing practice environment can be achieved by conducting an increased number and broader range of studies using the NWI.
