Both students and teaching faculty agreed that the top most professional elements are up to date knowledge, good communication skills, and teamwork. Hence, it is important that faculty members encourage their students to improve their professional skills and attitude.
This review is based upon the foreign health care professionals (FHCP) who go to various developed countries (United Kingdom, United States of America, Australia, Germany and France) from developing countries (India, Pakistan, Africa, Philippines etc) for work to have a better life style, good income, more opportunities, but experienced cultural shock with other types of problem. "Cultural shock" is the mixture of anxiety and feelings of confusion, excitement and insecurity and each person feels it differently. To explore this topic in depth, we divided the topic into separate themes to achieve maximum knowledge that followed by reflection, recommendations and conclusion. FHCP generally feel the unfamiliar environment when they visit to a completely different culture in a foreign country and feel certain problems (familial, professionals, technical etc.) along with cultural shock. Following these findings, we have identified three themes: The first theme will discuss about the cultural shock among FHCP and its impact. The second theme will be a focus on different issues of FHCP about their failure or struggle due to culture shock and third theme which is management challenges in order to establish appropriate culture in organization. For this review, we searched and selected various peer reviewed articles online using search engines and databases including Medline, Scopus, Cinahl and Cochrane and books from the University of Northampton library and peer reviewed journals including International Journal of Intercultural Relations, Human Resources for Health, British Medical Journal and Bulletin of The World Health Organization as well. This review will help to explore different aspects of FHCP such as adjustment with entirely different culture, lack of experience, different lifestyles, face problems being immigrants, and working in a completely different setup with certain rules and regulations.
The use of ultrasonography is rapidly expanding in emergency medicine. Real-time assessment offers clues to prompt diagnosis and creates opportunities for speedy intervention. We present a case of ‘cardiac monitor asystole’ that proved to be ventricular fibrillation on ultrasound examination. Uniquely this case demonstrates that this, typically unrecognised, form of ventricular fibrillation responds to desynchronised defibrillation, with restoration of perfusion for approximately 30 min. With increasing access to ultrasound we believe that further research is indicated to determine whether some cases of apparent asystole may best be treated by defibrillation, presenting an opportunity to save more lives than current protocols achieve.
Objective: To know the perception of students regarding Research among undergraduate physical therapy students. Material and methods: This was an observational cross sectional study with nonprobability convenience sampling technique. The data was collected from different physical therapy institutes, Isra Institute of Rehabilitation sciences Karachi and Isra University Hyderabad. The duration of the study was July to December 2014. Inclusion criteria were Final year undergraduate Physical Therapy Students, either gender and who were willing to participate. Exclusion criteria were Undergraduate students of 1 st 2 nd , 3 rd and 4 th year, Post graduate physical therapy students and those who did not give consent. Data Collection Procedure was a questionnaire with consent form was distributed to all participants. Validated questionnaire adapted from Andrea Tschirner et al study in 2011. Questionnaire contained closed ended questions. SPSS version 20.0 was used to analyzed the data. Results: A total of 100 participants involved in the study. There were 72 female and 28 male participants. There were 84% respondents strongly agreed that research in under graduate is necessary for positive growth in the physiotherapy profession, 12% (12) participants were agreed and 4% (4) was disagreed. When the participants were asked that is research exploring the effectiveness of physiotherapy treatment is necessary for positive growth in the physiotherapy profession maximum number of individuals showed strongly agree response i.e. 75% (75) however 25(25%) participant marked agree option. Conclusion: Majority of the students perceive that research in undergraduate is necessary for positive of the physical therapy profession. Scientific research in postgraduate is necessary for positive growth in the physiotherapy profession.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
