“…(30) Attention to related factors of QoL of nurses is very important. (31,32) None of these studies were consistent with the results of the present study. The inconsistency between results of above studies with those of the present study may be due to the short duration of intervention and the study of QoWL and job stress 1 month after the intervention, as well as different working environment, organizational culture, and managerial approach, which may influence the results of the study.…”

BACKGROUND Nurses face many stressful situations due to their professional nature which affect their quality of work life (QoWL). The aim of this study was to determine the effect of resilience training on QoWL and job stress of nurses. METHODS This quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design was performed on 30 nurses working in the Emergency Department of Shahid Mohammadi Hospital, who were divided into intervention and control groups (n=15). The intervention group received 8 sessions of 30-45-minute resilience training in two months and the control group did not receive any intervention during this period. QoWL and job stress were assessed by Walton Quality of Work Life questionnaire and Gray-Toft and Anderson's Nursing Stress Scale (NSS) in both groups before and 1 month after intervention, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS ver. 22, descriptive statistics, RM-ANOVA test, and Bonferroni ad-hoc test. RESULTS The findings of this research showed no statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups after the intervention in terms of QoWL except social integration, total working environment, and constitutionalism in the organization (p>0.05). Also, there was no statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups after the intervention in terms of job stress (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study show that resilience training can be used to improve the QoWL indicators of social integration, the total life space, and constitutionalism in the organization.

“…In addition, the hemodialysis patients often suffer from feelings of having no freedom, dependence on relatives, impaired familial and social life, and reduced or no income (6). Fatigue, lethargy, disability, diminished sexual desire, and even major depression associated with time-consuming and difficult hemodialysis can decrease patients' feeling of well-being (7) and disturb their quality of life (6). It can also cause changes in life style, health status and individual's roles (8).…”

Introduction: Institutionalizing adherence to treatment in hemodialysis patients is one of the important nursing goals for improving quality of life in these patients. Adherence to treatment approach in these patients can play a pivotal role in improving the health level and feeling of well-being. Objectives: This study aimed at determining the quality of life in hemodialysis patients presenting to hemodialysis centers affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran, on the basis of adherence to treatment. Patients and Methods: This is a correlational descriptive-analytic study. The study population consisted of hemodialysis patients in five hospitals affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, in 2017. The data were collected during 8 months from October 2016 to May 2017 in Tehran. A sample volume of 200 patients was determined in this study. Demographic information questionnaire, KDQOL-SF, and ESRD-AQ were applied in data collection. Availability sampling method was used to select the samples on the basis of inclusion criteria. The data were analyzed with SPSS version 18 using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Our findings showed that 50% of the patients were male. Most of the respondents of the study (23%) were 51-60 years old. The results indicated that the mean score of quality of life of patients was 50.42±22.81. The mean total score of adherence to treatment was 901.13±85.30. Also, the correlation coefficient in this study revealed a significant correlation between total score of quality of life and adherence to treatment (r=0.218, P<0.01). Conclusion: Considering the significant correlation between adherence to treatment and life quality of patients, healthcare providers can promote the life quality of these patients via focusing on planning programs for emphasizing the role of education and interventions that improve adherence to treatment in these patients.

“…(23) Nurses can play an important role in providing appropriate context for appropriate supportive measures that enable them to manage the problems facing these patients by paying special attention to consequences of confronting disability in SCI patients. (24) This study has been carried out as qualitative limited study. Therefore, as with all qualitative studies, the generalizability is limited, and the study needs to be repeated elsewhere with different cultural conditions.…”

BACKGROUND Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an experience that changes not only the path of life of the SCI person, but also the life of the spouse, parents, and children of the injured person. Considering that SCI imposes a significant burden on the healthcare system, the aim of the present study was to explain the experiences of SCI men within the first 5 years after the injury. METHODS The present qualitative study was carried out based on conventional content analysis. Data were collected through in-depth and semi-structured interviews with male SCI patients. The participants were selected using purposive sampling and data saturation was achieved after 8 interviews so that no new finding was added. The recorded interviews were transcribed verbatim. Data analysis was performed simultaneously, and content analysis was used to reduce the data, name the data, obtain analytical codes, and finally identify themes. Peer review and finding verification methods were used to ensure rigor of the data. RESULTS Analysis of the findings led to emergence of 4 themes, including going through wide range of suffering, negligence of needs and achieving regrets, relief of the suffering, adaptive paradoxical reactions and 12 sub-themes. CONCLUSIONS Investigation of the first-5-year experiences of SCI patients showed that, following injury, the life of these patients is in a kind of stillness due to a wide range of suffering, exposure to unmet needs, staying in regrets of regaining health, and reactions that rather than being constructive are sometimes destructive. Therefore, living in stillness can be considered as an extract of the experience of SCI patients in the first five years after the injury.
