Despite various reforms in the curricula of this region, health courses have not adequately addressed the prevention of HAIs. Objective: To evaluate the perceptions of nursing educators in Southeast Asia regarding an innovative educational approach developed by the PrevInf project consortium. Methods: A pilot stu...
Flexible pressure and temperature microsensors for textile-integrated wearables
Santos, Dimitri Emmanuel dos; Queiroz, José Bento; Garcia, Inês Sofia; Vieira, João; Fernandes, José; Sotgiu, Edoardo; Minas, Graça; Bouçanova, MariaEnvironmental factors, such as pressure and temperature, are known to contribute to the formation of ulcers that seriously affect bedridden individuals. Researchers have proposed several technologies to achieve the long-term monitoring of those parameters, usually relying on sensing mats, which poses difficulties in correlating the measurements with specific parts of the body. In this work, we aim to develop mi...
Uso de modelo Ex vivo para simulação de colonização de lesões por pressão por b...
Pinto, Alexandra Catarina Gonçalves; Antunes, Joana; Henriques, Mariana; Fangueiro, Raúl; Salgueiro-Oliveira, Anabela; Gomes, Fernanda Isabel AntunesOs biofilmes polimicrobianos têm sido alvo de crescente investigação devido ao seu papel como um dos grandes desafios de saúde pública, especialmente em contexto de feridas crónicas. As lesões por pressão (LP) são lesões localizadas na pele e nos tecidos moles causadas por pressão, cisalhamento ou atrito não aliviados1,2e ocorrem principalmente em pessoas com mobilidade reduzida3. As regiões mais propícias à oc...

Thi Thu Hien, Do; Thi Dieu Hang, Dinh; Thi Cam Hung, Pham; Thi Thuy, Dam; Thi Hue, Nguyen; Thi Hai, Vu; Thi Thanh Phuong, Pham; Thi Xuyen, DinhBackground: Applying simulation for nursing education, especially in healthcare-associated infection prevention and control (HAI-PC) in developing countries has limited evidence. The study was conducted to explore educators’ perceptions of simulation as a teaching method for nursing education in HAI-PC in two Vietnamese and two Cambodian universities. Methods: An exploratory qualitative design was applied. A fo...
Experiences of the nursing student in learning HAI prevention and control in As...
Em, Sovannarith; Song, Chhiay; Korhonen, Ulla; Silén-Lipponen, Marja; Nhem, Vannarith; Eam, Mao; Sek, Sophon; Ouch, Bory; Koponen, LeenaBackground: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) have posed a major threat to both patients and to the safety healthcare personnel worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, 10% of hospitalized patients are affected by HAIs worldwide. Objective: The objective of this study was to explore the experiences of nursing students in learning HAIs prevention and control by the application of the scenario...

Objective: This study explored students’ learning experiences with HAI-PC education programs in Asian countries (two Vietnamese and two Cambodian universities) to support a pedagogical model in HAI-PC. Method: A qualitative exploratory study design w...
Short Peripheral Venous Catheters Contamination and the Dangers of Bloodstream ...
Osório, Nádia; Oliveira, Vânia; Costa, Maria Inês; Santos-Costa, Paulo; Serambeque, Beatriz; Gama, Fernando; Adriano, David; Graveto, JoãoPeripheral venous catheters (PVCs) are the most used vascular access devices in the world. However, failure rates remain considerably high, with complications such as PVC-related infections posing significant threats to patients' well-being. In Portugal, studies evaluating the contamination of these vascular medical devices and characterizing the associated microorganisms are scarce and lack insight into potent...
Design of innovative clothing for pressure injury prevention: end-user evaluati...
Salgueiro-Oliveira, Anabela; Rêgo, Anderson da Silva; Santos-Costa, Paulo; Bernardes, Rafael A.; Filipe, Luísa; Sousa, Liliana B.The global relevance of pressure injury (PI) prevention technologies arise from their impact on the quality of life of people with limited mobility and the costs associated with treating these preventable injuries. The purpose of this mixed methods study is to evaluate the design of a prototype integrating Smart Health Textiles for PI prevention based on feedback from specialist nurses who care for individuals ...
