Background: Abdominal explorations surgery and surgery for inflammatory bowel disease are some of the common abdominal surgeries performed with complete or partial removal of small or large intestine. Alike any other surgical procedure, there are always side effects and complications present in abdominal surgeries too. In an abdominal surgery, the risks may include infection, damage to nearby organs and bleeding. The complications may also be because of anesthesia, medication reactions and breathing problems too. The post-surgical immobility may have much detrimental impact towards the body and mind of the patients. The physiological impacts can involve pressure ulcers, deep vein thrombosis, bowel obstruction, urinary tract infections and ventilator-related pneumonia. Furthermore, the immobility can contribute towards different depression levels. Prevention of such complexities can benefit the caregiver, patients, and medical facilities concerning with better outcomes and costs. The following are the some important post-operative complications raised after abdominal surgery. Aim: aim of this experimental study is to analyze the effectiveness of scheduled ambulation on functional ability, anxiety and quality of life among patient who had undergone abdominal surgery. Objectives: 1 To assess the effectiveness of scheduled ambulation on functional ability of the patient who had undergone abdominal surgery in the intervention group and control group. 2. To find out the effectiveness of scheduled ambulation on anxiety among patient who had undergone abdominal surgery in the intervention group and control group. 3. To determine the effectiveness of scheduled ambulation on quality of life among patient who had undergone abdominal surgery in the intervention group and control group.4. To determine the association between selected demographic variables and functional ability, activities of daily living, functional activity and anxiety in the study group and control group. Methods: A quantitative approach experimental pre-test, post-test design 150 Post-operative patients were selected by Simple random sampling technique. Results: Study revealed that, among The Posttest mean scores and SD of the experimental study group that is observed after the surgery at regular time-interval of 24 hours are 10.
Pediatric nurses are those nurses which care for children belonging to all age groups in a variety of healthcare settings. They possess ample knowledge about growth and development, as they are mainly involved in all round development of the child. Also, they include family members in their efforts to care for their child. Being a paediatric nurse is a highly satisfying, yet an extremely demanding career. Apart from high empathy and sensitivity skills a person should possess excellent communication skills so as form a close bond with the child. One of the main aspect of the job is understanding what the child is trying to say. Interpreting a child's behaviour forms the crux of the job as they often won't be explain clearly what or how they are feeling. Not only this job requires patience, but dedication also. It gets ramified many times when we include the concept of culturally sensitive care. Cultural attributes of children and families, including race, ethnicity, language, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, and socioeconomic status etc will always be a matter of great importance and the attending nurse has to be understanding to them so as to be able to provide effective healthcare. This paper effectively highlights how being culturally sensitive, can quickly form a deeper bond between the attending nurse and the patient and aid in quicker recovery. Thus, making the nurses more tolerant towards different ethnicities and cultures by training programmes will benefit the community in the long run.
