Objective:to explore priority actions for strengthening the role of Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) towards the achievement of Universal Health Converge (UHC) as perceived by health key informants in Jordan. Methods:an exploratory qualitative design, using a semi-structured survey, was utilized. A purposive sample of seventeen key informants from various nursing and health care sectors was recruited for the purpose of the study. Content analysis utilizing the five-stage framework approach was used for data analysis. Results:the findings revealed that policy and regulation, nursing education, research, and workforce were identified as the main elements that influence the role of APNs in contributing to the achievement of UHC. Priority actions were identified by the participants for the main four elements. Conclusion:study findings confirm the need to strengthen the role of APNs to achieve UHC through a major transformation in nursing education, practice, research, leadership, and regulatory system. Nurses should unite to come up with solid nursing competencies related to APNs, PHC, UHC, leadership and policy making to strengthen their position as main actors in influencing the health care system and evidence creation.

The Chi-square, Fisher and Contingency Coefficient tests were performed. Results: a higher frequency of correct responses was detected for catheterization of delay associated with a higher risk of infection (p<0.001); complications due to changes in micturition pattern (p<0.001); and discouragement to liquid intake at night (p<0.005). There was a lower percentage of correct answers for the orientation of Credé and Valsalva maneuvers (p<0.001). The training institution of participants was associated with knowledge (p=0.032). Conclusion: the participating nurses presented satisfactory knowledge about nursing care to people with spinal cord injury and urinary tract dysfunction.

“…Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (DM2) is one of the guaranteed pathologies, due to its morbidity and mortality rate, and among others, to the economic expenses associated with complications. In order to respond to the needs of population, it is essential that ( prestaciones en salud garantizadas ) guaranteed health benefits be timely and good quality, that is to say, they must allowed to move from Universal Coverage to Effective Coverage, since universal health coverage is not in itself a guarantee of efficacy and efficiency of care provided 4 , it is better understood as the coverage of health services and protection against financial risks and it is still far from the goal of universal coverage 4 . For this reason, it is necessary to develop researches that design indicators for the evaluation of policy progress of universal health coverage 4 .…”

Objective:determine the prevalence of Effective Universal Coverage of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 in Chile and its relation with the variables: Health Care Coverage of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2; Average of diabetics with metabolic control in 2011-2013; Mortality Rate for Diabetes Mellitus; and Percentage of nurses participating in the Cardiovascular Health Program. Method:cross-sectional descriptive study with ecological components that uses documentary sources of the Ministry of Health. It was established that there is correlation between the Universal Effective Coverage of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 and the independent variables; it was applied the Pearson Coefficient, being significant at the 0.05 level. Results:in Chile Universal Health Care Coverage of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 (HbA1c<7% estimated population) is less than 20%; this is related with Mortality Rate for Diabetes Mellitus and Percentage of nurses participating in the Cardiovascular Health Program, being significant at the 0.01 level. Conclusion:effective prevalence of Universal Health Coverage of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 is low, even though some regions stand out in this research and in the metabolic control of patients who participate in health control program; its relation with percentage of nurses participating in the Cardiovascular Health Program represents a challenge and an opportunity for the health system.
