There are several characteristics related to delivering nursing care. One vital characteristic of the nursing process is that it can be used to protect nurses and justify the provided care. Productive use of the nursing process requires the knowledge and skills of nurses to assess and solve issues. Nurses should develop and strengthen their critical thinking skills and evidence-based nursing interventions to improve their skills in formulating nursing care plans. A well-defined approach to...

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be...

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

1.5K
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Fixation and Sectioning

8.8K
Two basic types of preparation are used to visualize specimens with a light microscope: wet mounts and fixed specimens.
The simplest type of preparation is the wet mount, in which the specimen is placed in a drop of liquid on the slide. A liquid specimen can be directly deposited on the slide using a dropper. Solid specimens, such as skin scraping, can be placed on the slide before adding a drop of liquid to prepare the wet mount. Sometimes the liquid is simply water, but stains are often added...

Summary

Childhood obesity is linked to a higher prevalence of flat feet in Chilean children aged 6-10. Nutritional status significantly impacts the likelihood of developing this musculoskeletal condition.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Musculoskeletal Health
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Rising rates of childhood overweight and obesity necessitate investigating associated musculoskeletal issues.
  • Flat feet (pes planus) can impact motor function in children and may be influenced by nutritional status.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the association between nutritional status and the prevalence of flat feet in Chilean children.
  • To analyze this relationship in children aged 6 to 10 years.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving 388 Chilean schoolchildren (52.3% girls) aged 6-10 years.
  • Assessment included Body Mass Index (BMI) z-scores for nutritional status.
  • Plantar footprint analysis using the Hernández-Corvo methodology was conducted.

Main Results:

  • Over 40% of children had excess weight, with a higher prevalence in girls (47.8%) than boys (42.7%).
  • The overall prevalence of flat feet was 17%, with the right foot (18.3%) more affected than the left (15.7%).
  • A significant increase in flat feet prevalence was observed in obese children compared to those who were overweight or normal weight.

Conclusions:

  • Nutritional status is significantly associated with an increased prevalence of flat feet in children.
  • Childhood obesity is linked to the morphological alteration of the foot in the studied age group.
