Il Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Scienze Infermieristiche e Ostetriche: Studio Osservazionale Analitico Trasversale (Cross-Sectional) sul confronto dei Piani Di Studio della Coorte 2019/2020

Introduction The Master's Degree in Nursing and Midwifery Sciences provides analysis methods of the socio-health context, teaching methodologies and conceptual models in the research areas. The objectives have materialized in comparing the Study Plans, to highlight common orientations by analyzing the weight of the MED/45 and MED/47 SSDs.  Methods A trasversal observational study was carried out in March-December 2020 on the comparison of the Study Plans of the 2019/20 cohort. The results were obtained by comparing the SSDs of the CDLs based on region and geographical area. The CFUs of the four disciplinary fields with the greatest weight were compared (Management, Clinic, Research, Teaching).  Results 89 SSDs have been activated and the dominant disciplinary grouping is the MED with 1555 CFU for the overall Degree Courses with differences in the allocation of CFUs if the data is compared based on the geographical area (p = .042) , in particular between the Center and the North (p = .020). There are differences in the allocation of CFUs for the MED/45 sector by dividing the degree courses by region (p = .027). Discussion  Most of the Degree Courses have organized the training course on the four areas of competence of the graduates in the master's degree, while other locations have favored one of these. There is a lack of homogeneity in the attribution of MED/45 and MED/47 credits. An overall positive response emerges from the analysis, but at the same time the results indicate the need to standardize the teachings.Introduzione La Laurea Magistrale in Scienze Infermieristiche e Ostetriche fornisce metodologie di analisi del contesto socio-sanitario, metodologie didattiche e modelli concettuali nelle aree di ricerca. Gli obiettivi dello studio si sono concretizzati nel confrontare i Piani di Studio, per evidenziare orientamenti comuni (Settori attivati, Corsi integrati e relativi CFU, distribuzione degli insegnamenti, corpo docente e tirocinio) analizzando il peso dei SSD MED/45 e MED/47. Metodi È stato effettuato uno studio osservazionale analitico trasversale nei mesi di Marzo-Dicembre 2020 sul confronto dei Piani di Studio dei CDL della coorte 2019/20. I risultati sono stati ottenuti confrontando i SSD dei CDL in base alla regione e all’area geografica. Sono stati confrontati i CFU dei quattro ambiti diciplinari con maggior peso (Management, Clinica, Ricerca, Didattica). Risultati Sono stati attivati 89 SSD ed il Raggruppamento Disciplinare che predomina è il MED con 1555 CFU per i complessivi Corsi di Laurea con differenze nell’assegnazione dei CFU se si confrontano i dati in base all’area geografica (p=,042), in particolare tra centro e nord (p=,020). Sono presenti delle differenze nell’assegnazione di CFU per il settore MED/45 dividendo i Corsi di Laurea in base alla regione (p=,027). Discussione La maggior parte dei Corsi di Laurea ha organizzato il percorso formativo sulle quattro aree di competenza del laureato magistrale, altre sedi invece hanno privilegiato una di queste. Si evidenzia una disomogeneità nell’attribuzione dei crediti MED/45 e MED/47. Dall’analisi emerge complessivamente un riscontro positivo, ma nello stesso tempo i risultati indicano la necessità di uniformare gli insegnamenti

Relationship between People's Interest in Medication Adherence, Health Literacy, and Self-Care: An Infodemiological Analysis in the Pre- and Post-COVID-19 Era

The prevalence of non-communicable diseases has risen sharply in recent years, particularly among older individuals who require complex drug regimens. Patients are increasingly required to manage their health through medication adherence and self-care, but about 50% of patients struggle to adhere to prescribed treatments. This study explored the relationship between interest in medication adherence, health literacy, and self-care and how it changed during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used Google Trends to measure relative search volumes (RSVs) for these three topics from 2012 to 2022. We found that interest in self-care increased the most over time, followed by health literacy and medication adherence. Direct correlations emerged between RSVs for medication adherence and health literacy (r = 0.674, p < 0.0001), medication adherence and self-care (r = 0.466, p < 0.0001), and health literacy and self-care (r = 0.545, p < 0.0001). After the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, interest in self-care significantly increased, and Latin countries showed a greater interest in self-care than other geographical areas. This study suggests that people are increasingly interested in managing their health, especially in the context of the recent pandemic, and that infodemiology may provide interesting information about the attitudes of the population toward chronic disease management
