The Effectiveness of a Program Based on Psychosocial Support in Raising the Level of Family Empowerment among Refugees in Jordan
هدفت الدراسة إلى فحص مدى فاعلية برنامج مستند للدعم النفسي الاجتماعي في رفع مستوى التمكين الأسري لدى اللاجئين في الأردن. وتكونت عينة الدراسة من (32) لاجئًا في محافظة إربد تم تعيينهم بشكل عشوائي لمجوعتين متساويتين: المجوعة التجريبية (ن= 16) التي شاركت في برنامج الدعم النفسي الاجتماعي، والمجموعة الضابطة (ن= 16) التي لم تشارك في أي برنامج تدخل. ولتحقيق أهداف الدراسة تم تطوير مقياس التمكين الأسري لجمع بيانات الدراسة في الاختبارات القبلية والبعدية لمجموعتي الدراسة، وفي الاختبار التتبعي مع أفراد المجموعة التجريبية فقط، وبرنامج الدعم النفسي الاجتماعي. أظهرت نتائج الدراسة وجود فروق دالة إحصائيًا بين المجموعتين التجريبية والضابطة في متوسطات الدرجات على مقياس التمكين الأسري في الاختبار البعدي لصالح المجموعة التجريبية، وعدم وجود فروق دالة إحصائيًا بين متوسطات القياسين البعدي والتتبعي في مقياس التمكين الأسري، مما يعكس ثبات تأثير البرنامج.The study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a program based on psychosocial support in raising the level of family empowerment among refugees in Jordan. The study sample consisted of (32) refugees in Irbid governorate who were randomly assigned to two equal groups: the experimental group (n = 16), who participated in the psychosocial support program, and the control group (n = 16), who did not participate in any intervention program. To achieve the study's objectives, the Family Empowerment Scale was developed to collect study data in the pre and posttests for the two study groups and the follow-up test with members of the experimental group only and the psychosocial support program. The results of the study showed that there were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in the mean scores on the family empowerment scale in the posttest in favor of the experimental group, and there were no statistically significant differences between the means of the post and follow-up measures in the family empowerment scale, which reflects the reliability of the program’s impact
The Effectiveness of a Training Program Based on psychosocial support to Improve psychological empowerment Level among Refugees in Jordan
هدفت الدراسة إلى فحص مدى فاعلية برنامج مستند للدعم النفسي الاجتماعي في رفع مستوى التمكين النفسي لدى اللاجئين في الأردن. تكونت عينة الدراسة من (38) لاجئًا في محافظة إربد، تم تقسيمهم بشكل عشوائي لمجوعتين متساويتين: المجوعة التجريبية (ن= 19)، وشاركت في برنامج الدعم النفسي الاجتماعي، والمجموعة الضابطة (ن= 19)، التي لم تشارك في أي برنامج تدخل. لتحقيق أهداف الدراسة تم استخدام مقياس أوزير وشوتلاند (Ozer & Schotland) للتمكين النفسي؛ لجمع بيانات الدراسة في الاختبارات القبلية والبعدية لمجموعتي الدراسة، وفي الاختبار التتبعي مع أفراد المجموعة التجريبية فقط، بالإضافة إلى برنامج الدعم النفسي الاجتماعي. أظهرت نتائج الدراسة وجود فروق دالة إحصائيًا بين المجموعتين التجريبية والضابطة في متوسطات الدرجات على مقياس التمكين النفسي في الاختبار البعدي لصالح المجموعة التجريبية، وأظهرت النتائج عدم وجود فروق دالة إحصائيًا بين متوسطات القياسين البعدي والتتبعي، في مقياس التمكين النفسي، مما يعكس ثبات تأثير البرنامج.The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a training program based on psychosocial support to improve the level of psychological empowerment among refugees in Jordan. The study sample consisted of (38) refugees in Irbid governorate, and they were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group (n = 19) refugees (the group which received the training program) and the control group (n = 19) refugees (without any training intervention). To achieve the study objectives, the psychological empowerment Scale was adapted and used to collect the study data in the pre- and post- tests for the two study groups and to carry out the follow-up tests for the members of the experimental group only as well as to a training program based on psychosocial support. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups and the differences are in favor of the experimental group. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the average performance of the experimental group on psychological empowerment Scale in the post-test, and their average scores on the same scale on the follow-up test, which reflects the stability of the program’s impact

Management of status epilepticus: a narrative review.
Status epilepticus causes prolonged or repetitive seizures that, if left untreated, can lead to neuronal injury, severe disability, coma and death in paediatric and adult populations. While convulsive status epilepticus can be diagnosed using clinical features alone, non-convulsive status epilepticus requires confirmation by electroencephalogram. Early seizure control remains key in preventing the complications of status epilepticus. This is especially true for convulsive status epilepticus, which has stronger evidence supporting the benefit of treatment on outcomes. When status epilepticus becomes refractory, often due to gamma-aminobutyric acid and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor modulation, anaesthetic drugs are needed to suppress seizure activity, of which there is limited evidence regarding the selection, dose or duration of their use. Seizure monitoring with electroencephalogram is often needed when patients do not return to baseline or during anaesthetic wean; however, it is resource-intensive, costly, only available in highly specialised centres and has not been shown to improve functional outcomes. Thus, the treatment goals and aggressiveness of therapy remain under debate, especially for non-convulsive status epilepticus, where prolonged therapeutic coma can lead to severe complications. This review presents an evidence-based, clinically-oriented and comprehensive review of status epilepticus and its definitions, aetiologies, treatments, outcomes and prognosis at different stages of the patient's journey
