Summary
School nurses
Area of Science:
- Nursing Research
- Pediatric Endocrinology
- Public Health
Background:
- School nurses play a critical role in managing diabetes in students.
- Effective diabetes management in schools requires specific competencies from nurses.
- An ecological model provides a framework to understand influencing factors.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze factors influencing school nurses' diabetes management competency.
- To identify key individual, interpersonal, and organizational factors.
- To inform training and support for school nurses.
Main Methods:
- Online survey of 122 elementary school nurses (June 3-18, 2024).
- Self-report instrument for perceived diabetes management competency.
- Statistical analyses: descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, hierarchical multiple regression.
Main Results:
- Competency positively correlated with experience, training, nurse-student interaction, and supply availability.
- Nurse-student interaction (β=.33), supply availability (β=.31), and training (β=.18) were significant predictors.
- These factors explained 37.8% of the variance in competency.
Conclusions:
- School nurses' diabetes management competency is influenced by training, resources, and direct interaction.
- Ongoing, up-to-date training is essential for school nurses to support students with evolving diabetes care.
- Interventions should focus on enhancing nurse-student interactions and ensuring adequate school supplies.

01:24Sources of Self-Esteem II: Performance Feedback
176
Self-esteem is intricately tied to our perception of competence and our ability to exert control over our lives. One of the primary sources of this perception is performance feedback — the ongoing evaluation of our actions in terms of success and failure. According to Franks and Marolla (1976), people derive self-worth from experiencing themselves as causal agents, capable of achieving goals and overcoming obstacles. This process nurtures a critical component of self-esteem:...

01:15Diabetes: Management and Pharmacotherapy

The therapy for diabetes aims to alleviate hyperglycemia-related symptoms, prevent acute metabolic decompensation, and reduce chronic end-organ complications. Glycemic control is evaluated through short-term (self-monitoring, continuous glucose monitoring) and long-term (A1c, fructosamine) metrics, enabling near real-time tracking of blood glucose levels and reflecting glycemic control over specific time frames.
