Primary Healthcare Services01:30

Primary Healthcare Services

Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.
In 1978, international leaders convened in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, for what would be a pivotal event in global health. The Alma-Ata Declaration was the first to call...
Preventive Healthcare Services01:30

Preventive Healthcare Services

Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:
Pneumonia V: Nursing management and Prevention01:30

Pneumonia V: Nursing management and Prevention

Nursing management of pneumonia involves promoting airway patency, facilitating rest and conserving energy, encouraging fluid intake, maintaining nutrition, and educating patients.
The nurse must practice strict medical asepsis and adhere to infection control guidelines to minimize healthcare-associated infections.
Enhance airway patency
Position the patient correctly to facilitate drainage of the affected lung segments. Manual or mechanical percussion and vibration can also be employed.
Standard Precaution01:26

Standard Precaution

Standard precautions are the minimum infection control safeguards used while caring for all patients, irrespective of their disease condition. They help prevent the spread of common infectious microorganisms to healthcare workers, patients, and visitors in all healthcare settings.
Hand hygiene is the most crucial means to prevent the transmission of disease. Employers are legally required to provide their workers with personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize exposure or contact with...
Data Collection III01:05

Data Collection III

The physical assessment examines the patient for objective data that defines the patient's condition, and aids in formulating the nursing care plan. The purpose of physical assessment is a health status appraisal, which includes identifying health problems, and establishing a database for nursing intervention.
The principles to begin the physical assessment include conducting a comprehensive or problem-related history in a quiet, well-lit room, emphasizing privacy and comfort for the patient.
Infectious Diseases and Their Occurrence01:28

Infectious Diseases and Their Occurrence

Infectious diseases appear in populations through various transmission patterns, influenced by pathogen characteristics, population immunity, environmental conditions, and social behavior. Understanding these patterns is essential for effective public health surveillance and intervention. These categories—sporadic, outbreak, epidemic, pandemic, and endemic—help frame the nature and scope of disease events.Sporadic diseases occur irregularly and infrequently, without a predictable temporal or...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Immunology
  • Evidence-Based Medicine

Background:

  • Immunization is crucial for public health, significantly reducing infectious disease transmission.
  • Vaccines are essential in healthcare programs, preventing numerous vaccine-preventable diseases globally.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide evidence-based recommendations on adult immunization.
  • To cover both healthy adults and those with high-risk conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach.
  • Systematic synthesis of scientific evidence for 15 vaccines: Cholera, Hib, Hepatitis A, Herpes Zoster, HPV, Influenza, Japanese Encephalitis, Measles, Meningococcal, Mpox, Pneumococcal, Rabies, Tetanus, Typhoid, and Varicella.

Main Results:

  • Developed 41 recommendations on prioritized questions concerning 15 vaccines.
  • Recommendations cover efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of each vaccine.

Conclusions:

  • The systematic review assessed vaccine efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Recommendations are intended for public health units, primary care practitioners, and administrative sectors involved in vaccination programs.
