Physicians’ Knowledge and practice of Nutrition Education in Health Care Centers of Saudi Arabia: Systematic Review

Abstract

Primary care medical doctor (PHC) have a chance to sustenance the healthy eating behaviors of patients by giving nourishment education. This study aimed to explore the updated evidence concerning physicians' knowledge and practice of nutrition education in healthcare centers in Saudi Arabia. A systematic review was conducted. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, EBSCO, and the Cochrane library. Using Rayyan QCRI, study articles were first screened by title and abstract before a full-text analysis was done. Results: This review included a total of 8 research with participants of both sexes and varying ages. The included studies used a variety of designs, mostly cross-sectional, but they are all legitimate. the main evidence demonstrated by most of the reviewed studies is that primary care physicians have just a reasonable nutrition knowledge and are aware of the only basic nutritional knowledge for providing nutrition care to their patients. Medical students' knowledge, attitudes, and confidence in offering nutritional counselling to patients all showed how inadequate the nutritional programme was. So, Intern physicians and Primary care physicians need to improve their clinical nutrition knowledge, this will allow them to get the most level of nutritional knowledge and skills to provide individuals with the suitable nutritional recommendations and also successfully support patients to enhamce their dietary behaviors and health conditions. PHC physicians should have continuous nutrition educational training programs to ensure the continuous provision of sound nutritional advice to patients and the public leading to a positive impact on public health.

Perception of Healthcare Workers on the Integration of Electronic Health Records in Primary Health Centers in Nigeria

“…Gesulgaa et al 28 categorized information systems resources and people resource to be user resistance, lack of skills among healthcare professionals, and lack of administrative and policy support as barriers to EHR implementation. An exploratory review from Asia by Alqahtani et al 29 also supports the findings from the present study. These researchers identified 12 main barriers; a few out of these barriers were lack of computer experience by healthcare professionals, lack of perceived ease by healthcare professionals, technical limitations of the software system, lack of user support, and user resistance to change.…”

Contention-aware Greedy Heuristic Method and Learning based Method for Load Balancing through Scheduling for Containers in Cloud Computing Environments

“…Using eBPF/XDP, a scalable commercial-grade load balancer in Kubernetes outperforms iptables. Nasr et al [52] enhanced by the delivery of IoT services at the edge, fog computing reduces delay. Stability and high throughput are ensured by the load-balanced service scheduling method.…”

Determination of valsartan and pitavastatin using synchronous spectrofluorimetry and augmented least squares chemometric models: A comparative study with greenness and blueness assessment

“…As a result, these models can remove errors caused by spectrally active components that are not part of the calibration while maintaining the qualitative and quantitative advantages of CLS and PLS models, respectively. For example, these algorithms have been applied recently to resolve the spectral overlap of three antiretroviral drugs, namely, dolutegravir, lamivudine, and abacavir, based on their UV absorption spectra with high performance and predictabilities, making them powerful tools for determining complex samples simultaneously [27].…”
