Роль общения в практике семейных медицинских сестёр

Center of Healthy for Youth, National College of Medicine and Pharmacy Neovita, Center for Continuing Medical Education for Medical and Pharmaceutical Secondary Staff, Congresul III al Medicilor de Familie din Republica Moldova, 17–18 mai, 2012, Chişinău, Republica Moldova, Conferinţa Naţională „Maladii bronhoobstructive la copii”, consacrată profesorului universitar, doctor habilitat Victor Gheţeul, 27 aprilie, Chişinău, Republica MoldovaCommunication in medicine should not be viewed as a common object, understood by itself. There is a difference between unconscious and intentional communication. The necessity to improve communication with the patient comes from the gaps that persist in the communication abilities of family nurses. All nurse-patient interactions are influenced by the expectations that both parties have.Общение в медицинской практике не должно трактоваться, как обычная составляющая практической деятельности. Существует четкая грань между обычным, в бытовом понятии, общением и общением профессиональным. Необходимость постоянного улучшения качественной составляющей общения с больными обусловлено, в первую очередь, теми недостатками, которые продолжают иметь место в общении между семейными медицинскими сестрами и больными. Взаимоотношения между медицинскими сестрами и пациентами регулируются, в конечном итоге, ожидаемыми результатами обеих сторон

The evaluation of liver fibrosis regression in chronic hepatitis C patients after the treatment with direct-acting antiviral agents – A review of the literature

The second-generation of direct-acting antiviral agents are the current treatment for chronic viral hepatitis C infection. To evaluate the regression of liver fibrosis in patients receiving this therapy, liver biopsy remains the most accurate method, but the invasiveness of this procedure is its major drawback. Different non-invasive tests have been used to study changes in the stage of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic viral hepatitis treated with the second-generation of direct-acting antiviral agents: liver stiffness measurements (with transient elastography or acoustic radiation force impulse elastography) or different scores that use serum markers to calculate a fibrosis score. We prepared a literature review of the available data regarding the long-term evolution of liver fibrosis after the treatment with direct-acting antiviral agents for chronic viral hepatitis C

Influence of pesticides on respiratory pathology - a literature review

Introduction. Pesticides are widely employed in agriculture, and the food industry is forced to combat the pests and diseases they cause. Respiratory pathology is related to occupational exposure to pesticides. Impairment of pulmonary function was observed among people professionally exposed to pesticides. Because of the marked use of pesticides in agriculture during the last 20 years, there has been a significant increase in respiratory problems within the population, not only among people who come in direct contact with them, but even in the case of manipulators. Objective. The aim is a review of the literature of the past 10 years on the correlation between occupational exposure to pesticides and respiratory pathology. Materials and method. Electronic search in ‘Pub Med’ and ‘Web of Science’ was performed in September 2019 to find papers regarding the above-investigated aspects. Abstracts and full-text articles containing the targeted subject were included. Reviews and studies about the influence of pesticides on other pathologies than respiratory were excluded. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, eligible full-text articles were identified. Conclusions. Exposure to pesticides is highly correlated with respiratory pathologies (asthma, COPD, lung cancer). Contact with these substances can occur at any time in the production, transport, preparation or application of the treatments. Numerous studies documented the association between exposure to pesticides, and therefore the increased incidence of respiratory, cardiovascular and renal diseases, as well as the aging phenomenon
