Several of its activities are proved and confirmed through in viro and in vivo approaches which gave a rational scientific way to the traditional claims. As a result to the significant proven activities Saussrea lappa is having major chance for new drug discovery.
Objective: "The current study aims to assess the proportion of newborns that sleep well and investigates the awareness and comprehension of SIDS and its associated risk factors among mothers of infants in Al Najaf Provence". Methodology: In order to accomplish the study's goals, a descriptive cross-sectional study was used throughout. The study took place between November 2021 and February 2022. a Non-Probability (Purposive Sample) of 100 moms who arrived with infants (under 1 year old) at the Hospital for Maternity and Children and the primary healthcare facilities in Al-Najaf Provence. Results: The study's findings revealed that (49%) of newborns were found to be sleeping on their sides, (37%) were found to be dozing off, and (14%) were found to be sleeping on their prone backs. Participants as a whole (60%) stated that (40%) child doctors were the main information source they used to learn about SIDS. Conclusion: In our study, women had limited understanding about sudden infant death syndrome, and a substantial percentage of them were unaware that smoking exposure during pregnancy and after delivery had been linked to an elevated risk of SIDS. In our study, a large percentage of moms were unaware that giving their babies pacifiers while they slept reduced the risk of SIDS. Keywords: knowledge, mother, sudden infant death syndrome.
The performance of infertile couples was maintained, their quality of life improved, and medical costs were decreased as a result of improving their lifestyle.To accomplish the initially stated goals, the present study used a cross-sectional descriptive approach. From December 1st, 2021, through May 14th, 2022, the study was in progress. In an infertility clinic in Al-Najaf City, Iraq, the study is being done. 200 women and men who visited infertility clinics at Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf Health Directorate were included in this non-probability (Purposive sample) sample. The process of gathering data involves developing a questionnaire utilizing an interviewing technique with both men and women, using the Arabic questionnaire version, and it is divided into three sections: Socio-demographic data and reproductive characteristics and standard Health_ Promoting Lifestyle questionnaires. The findings indicated that participants don't always engage in healthy behaviors to the required extent. These behaviors significantly contribute to improving life quality, preserving health, and fostering fertility. It is imperative to offer techniques, especially those that are consistent with predictors of health promoting activities, in order to enhance the health condition of infertile couples.
Nosocomial infections, also called health-care-associated or hospital-acquired infections, are a subset of infectious diseases acquired in a health-care facility. Historically, Staphylococci, Pseudomonas, and Escherichia coli have been the common known as nosocomial infection bacteria. Moreover, nosocomial pneumonia, surgical wound infections, and vascular access-related bacteremia have caused the most illness and death in hospitalized patients; and intensive care units have been the epicenters of antibiotic resistance. Acquired antimicrobial resistance is the major problem, and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is the pathogen of greatest concern. The shift to outpatient care is leaving the most vulnerable patients in hospitals. Aging of our population and increasingly aggressive medical and surgical interventions, including implanted foreign bodies, organ transplantations, and xenotransplantation, create a cohort of particularly susceptible persons. Moreover, renovation of aging hospitals increases risk of airborne fungal and other infections. To prevent and control these emerging nosocomial infections, we need to increase national surveillance, "risk adjust" infection rates so that inter hospital comparisons are valid, develop more noninvasive infection-resistant devices, and work with health-care workers on better implementation of existing control measures such as hand washing. In this review we aimed to review the previous projects which study incidence of hospital infection among delivery women with caesarean section in hospitals. Also, to discuss about the nosocomial infections and its types. We will also review the most common way a nosocomial infection is acquired, and the most common cause of nosocomial infection. In order to the modes of transmission of infection. In addition to a way to prevent nosocomial infections in hospitals.
