				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Ensuring that patients adhere to their medication is vital for effectively managing hypertension. Implementing educational interventions using social networks can be a practical approach to promote patient adherence.Aim: The present study was conducted with aim to compare the impact of virtual social network-based education against traditional face-to-face education on medication adherence in individuals with hypertension .Method: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 210 patients with hypertension referred to the heart clinics affiliated to Zanjan University of Medical Sciences. The participants were allocated to three groups. Educational intervention was conducted in 4 sessions and during 4 weeks for virtual and face-to-face training groups. The data were collected using the demographic form and Morisky medication adherence scale (MMAS-8) before, one and three months after the intervention. Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 16) and Chi-square, ANOVA and Repeated Measures tests.Results: There was a statistically significant difference in the mean medication adherence score among the three study groups before the intervention (F=4.18; p=0.017), one month (F=68.85; p=0.0001), and three months (F=64.78; p=0.0001) after the intervention. The mean medication adherence score in the virtual and face-to-face education groups was significantly higher than the control group at one and three months after the intervention (p=0.0001); however, no statistically significant difference was observed between the two intervention groups (p=0.999).Implications for Practice: Educational strategies that social networks and face-to-face training can help individuals manage hypertension. Virtual education can be a cost-effective alternative to traditional approaches, but face-to-face education is also practical.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: The growing elderly population and prevalence of chronic diseases have elevated palliative care as a global public health concern. The knowledge and attitudes of undergraduate nursing students regarding palliative care will impact the quality of care in the future.Aim: This study was conducted with aim to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of nursing students towards palliative care among at Tehran University of Medical Sciences .Method: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in 204 on nursing  students in their 5th to 8th academic semesters at Tehran University of Medical Sciences in 2022. Data was collected using the Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing (PCQN) and a researcher-developed attitude questionnaire through an online survey. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS software (version 16.0). p&lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: The analysis of the attitude questionnaire showed that 87.3% of participants had a positive attitude towards palliative care. Gender was a significant factor in attitude, with women scoring higher (p=0.0001). The mean PCQN score was 10.26 ± 2.33, indicating limited knowledge. There was no significant correlation between knowledge and attitude scores.Implications for Practice: Most undergraduate nursing students had inadequate knowledge about palliative care, but they generally held positive attitudes towards it. Therefore, it is crucial to develop an effective palliative care program for nursing students by implementing a unified curriculum.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: An endotracheal tube (ETT) plays a critical role in maintaining a secure and open airway, ensuring proper ventilation and oxygenation throughout the surgical procedure.
Aim: The present study was conducted with aim to evaluate the impact of endotracheal tube size on post-intubation sore throat and hoarseness in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries.
Method: This randomized clinical trial was conducted at Ghaem and Imam Reza hospitals in Mashhad, Iran. Patients were randomly allocated into four groups using block randomization: two intervention groups (6.5 mm for males, 6 mm for females) and two control groups (7.5 mm for males, 7 mm for females). We monitored the incidence of sore throat and hoarseness at 1-, 6-, and 24-hours post-surgery.
Results: A total of 160 patients (with mean age 45.01 ± 10.33 years) were evaluated. Gender distribution was similar between the two groups (25.6% in control and 25% in intervention group were female). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender, age, BMI, underlying diseases, duration of surgery, duration of anesthesia, Malampathi score, Cormack-Lehane grade, the use of NG tubes and oral airways, indicating homogeneity. The incidence of hoarseness one hour after surgery was significantly lower in the intervention group (7.5%) compared to the control group (20%) (p&lt;0.05). Additionally, the sore throat at 6 hours post-surgery was significantly lower in the intervention group than in the control group (p&lt;0.05), but was not significant at 1 and 24-h post-surgery.
Implications for Practice: Using a smaller tracheal tube size reduces the incidence of sore throat and hoarseness after laparoscopic surgery.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Pain, anxiety, and agitation are common complications among intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, often leading to poor clinical outcomes. Complementary therapies such as aromatherapy massage may offer a non-pharmacological approach to alleviate these symptoms.Aim: This study was conducted with aim to investigate the effects of aromatherapy massage using bergamot essential oil on pain, sedation, and anxiety levels in mechanically ventilated ICU patients.Method: This randomized controlled trial was conducted on ICU patients with a hospital stay of more than 24 hours who were randomly assigned to one of three groups: aromatherapy massage with bergamot essential oil, massage with almond oil, and control (standard care). The interventions were administered once daily for three days per week. Pain, sedation, and anxiety levels were measured using the Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT), the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS), and the Facial Anxiety Scale (FAS) at baseline, and at 30 minutes and 6 hours post-intervention.Results: Both the aromatherapy massage and massage-only groups demonstrated significant reductions in pain severity and anxiety levels compared with the control group at 30 minutes and 6 hours post-intervention (p&lt;0.05). No significant differences were found in sedation levels between the groups, indicating that the interventions did not influence sedation status.Implications for Practice: Aromatherapy massage with bergamot essential oil and regular massage may be effective and low-risk interventions for reducing pain and anxiety in mechanically ventilated ICU patients. These complementary therapies could be considered as adjuncts to routine care in critical care settings.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Pain management is a crucial aspect of nursing care for postoperative patients. Educational models offer a valuable approach to enhance nurses&#039; knowledge and skills in this domain.Aim: The present study was conducted with aim to evaluate the effect of a pain management educational program based on Kern&#039;s educational model on the performance of nurses in surgical wards .Method: This quasi-experimental study with a pre-test, post-test, and control group design was conducted on nurses from surgical wards of three hospitals affiliated with Babol University of Medical Sciences. The intervention group received a six-step pain management educational program relying on Kern&#039;s model. Data were collected using the Nurses&#039; Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain (NKASRP) and the Nurse&#039;s Care Behavior Questionnaire related to Pain Management (NCBPQ). Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 16) and independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test. p&lt;0.05 was considered significant.Results: After the intervention, the mean score of the nurses&#039; performance reached 183.39 ± 23.05 in the intervention group and 154.14 ± 52.55 in the control group (p&lt;0.001), and the mean score of the nurses&#039; knowledge and attitude were 10.02 ± 1.40, 30.36 ± 3.39 in the intervention group and 8.04 ± 2.01, 24.19 ± 3.68 in the control group (p&lt;0.001). In the intervention group, nurses&#039; knowledge, attitude and performance improved at post-test (p&lt;0.001), but in the control group, this difference was not significant (p&lt;0.05).Implications for Practice: The pain management educational program based on Kern&#039;s educational model improves the nurses&#039; knowledge, attitude and performance about pain management in surgical wards. It is suggested to use this educational model for the effectiveness and durability of training.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a major global cause of morbidity and mortality, requiring consistent treatment adherence. However, maintaining adherence to diet, physical activity, and medication is challenging. The Transitional Care Pathway (TCP) is a structured intervention that provides personalized education, follow-up calls, and lifestyle planning to support patients during the critical post-discharge period.Aim: This study was conducted with aim to evaluate the effectiveness of TCP in improving treatment adherence among ACS patients.Method: In this randomized controlled trial at Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, 79 patients were randomly assigned to the intervention group (n=39; TCP-based education and follow-up) or the control group (n=40; standard oral instructions and pamphlets) using time-block randomization. The allocation sequence, generated via Randomizer.org, was concealed in eight opaque envelopes, opened weekly. Adherence was assessed using Ziaei’s Treatment Adherence Questionnaire at baseline and one-month post-discharge.Results: In the intervention group, the mean age of patients was 57.43 ± 14.31 years, while in the control group, it was 57.48 ± 12.19 years. Pre-intervention mean adherence scores were 49.56 ± 14.24 (intervention) and 49.63 ± 12.75 (control) (p=0.984). Post-intervention scores increased to 66.97 ± 10.78 and 60.03 ± 12.16, respectively (p=0.009). Both groups showed significant within-group improvements (p&lt;0.001), particularly in dietary (p=0.012) and physical activity adherence (p=0.012), while medication adherence showed no significant between-group difference (p=0.308).Implications for Practice: Integrating TCP into routine care may enhance adherence to non-pharmacologic regimens and improve long-term outcomes in ACS patients. Given the short one-month follow-up, longer-term studies are recommended.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Medication Safety Competence (MSC) refers to the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to prevent medication errors. Assessing MSC in ICU nurses is essential due to high-risk medications and complex patient conditions.Aim: The present study was conducted with aim to determine the MSC status and its related factors among nurses working in ICUs.Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2024 on 239 ICU nurses at teaching hospitals in Zanjan, Iran. Participants were recruited using a stratified random sampling. Data were collected through a demographic-occupational questionnaire and the MSC Scale (MSCS). Analysis of data was performed using SPSS software (version 16) and independent samples t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), multiple linear regression, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and chi-square test. p&lt;0.05 was considered significant.Results: The mean of MSC scores among the ICU nurses was 154.89 ± 13.50 (range: 114–180), indicating a satisfactory level of MSC according to the scale (151–180). Multiple regression analysis showed that rotating shifts (β= -5.118, p=0.006) and hospital type (β= 4.352, p=0.027) were significantly associated with MSC. Additionally, there was a weak but statistically significant correlation between MSC and total work experience (r= 0.130, p=0.044), suggesting that more experienced nurses may have slightly higher MSC.Implications for Practice: ICU nurses demonstrated a satisfactory level of medication safety competence based on the average MSC score. Less experienced nurses and those working rotating shifts showed lower competence, indicating the need for targeted training and proper shift management.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs)—also known as nosocomial infections—represent a significant global public health concern, especially in developing countries such as Iran.Aim: This review was conducted with aim to identify and synthesize effective strategies for reducing nosocomial infections in Iranian hospitals.Method: In accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Manual and PRISMA-ScR guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, SID, Magiran, and Google Scholar up to January 31, 2025. Studies conducted among healthcare professionals in Iranian hospitals that evaluated infection prevention and control interventions were included. After screening and eligibility assessment, 41 studies were analyzed.Results: The included studies, conducted across multiple provinces in Iran, identified strategies grouped into six domains: governance and leadership, financing, human resources, infrastructure, medical products and equipment, and information systems and service delivery. Key interventions comprised continuous training of healthcare staff, strict adherence to hand hygiene protocols, regular infection control audits, improvement of hospital environments, rational antibiotic stewardship, and development of national infection control guidelines. Additional strategies involved strengthening infection control committees, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, enhancing workforce competency, and raising public awareness about infection prevention.Implications for Practice: A comprehensive, multi-faceted, and evidence-based approach is essential to effectively reduce HAIs in Iranian hospitals. Sustained education, leadership engagement, robust monitoring systems, and adherence to national and international standards are critical. Policymakers should integrate these strategies into national health policies to improve overall healthcare quality.]]></abstract>
