title = {The effect of supplementation with intravenous vitamin C on fatigue of hemodialysis patients}, 
abstract ={Aims : Fatigue is one of the most common dialysis side effects and it has been among the main nursing diagnosis in hemodialysis patients and it can predict cardiovascular events and its mortality in hemodialysis patients as a bioalarm. Considering that decrease in Serum level of vitamin C is one of the main causes of fatigue in these patients, this study had been done with the aim of evaluating the effect of supplementation with intravenous vitamin C on fatigue in hemodialysis patients . Methods : In a randomized, parallel group, double-blind clinical trial , 177 patients with chronic renal failure who referred to hemodialysis units of Baqiatallah and Chamran hospital in Tehran were studied. They distributed in three groups of experimental, control and placebo in 2011. In addition to demographic questionnaire , multidimensional questionnaire (MFI) had also been used for determining fatigue before and after intervention. Then in experimental group an 2.5cc injection contacting 250 mg vitamin C was injected three times every week, at the end of each dialysis session via the intravenous route , for 8 weeks. In the placebo group normal saline placebo had been injected with the same amount for the same time and there was no intervention in the control group. In order to analyze data statistically and compare them between groups, SPSS statistical software , and Chi square, T-test, Paired t-test and ANOVA were used . Results: Complain of fatigue was observed in 81/6 % of patients and 30/7% of these patients suffered from severe fatigue before the intervention . The average loss of activity, physical fatigue and general fatigue had respectively higher mean in compare with the other five of fatigue dimensions .The mean of total scores of fatigue five dimensions was 65.39±15.92. After the end of intervention there was significant difference between findings of the three groups fatigue mean was decreased in experimental group to ( 52.28±13.82). Conclusion: Vitamin C supplementation can decrease fatigue significantly and it can be used as a simple, safe and inexpensive way .},

title = {Studying intra-hospital transportation situation of the high risk neonet in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)}, 
abstract ={Aims: Infants, who are hospitalized, may need transportation due to different reasons that may happen in inter or intra-hospital form, but what should be noted in transferring an infant is stabilization of the infant’s situation before transportation and maintaining stability during transportation. So this study had been designed and performed with the aim of “determining intra-hospital situation”. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, which had been done in selected hospitals of Tehran Medical Sciences University in 2013, totally 52 intra-hospital infants’ transportations had been assessed by using equipment standard checklist of the least transportation, transportation team features, and the questionnaire of the infants’ situation and the checklist of performing infant’s stabilization program. Data were analyzed by using SPSS 19 software and descriptive statistic. Results: Most of the transportations had been done by one single person and by specialist nurses, most of these people were in the age range of 20-29 years old (46.6%) and they were female (72.6%) and they had the experience of working in ICU (71%). Most of them had not passed the neonatal resuscitation courses, or it was more than six months since their last passed course (61.2%). the majority of the transportations had been done without monitoring blood oxygen (56.6%). There wasn’t enough necessary equipment and drugs with the neonet during transportation in most of the transportations (71.8%). Conlusion: Intra-hospital transportation situation in the neonets is far from the international standard. Considering these conditions, it is expected that authorities of nursing permanent education to hold training and skill courses of neonet’s transportation and highlight the part of emotional support in educational programs. Also paying attention to use special incubators and having necessary equipment and drugs needed for transportation are essential.},
