RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION AND SEXUAL SELF-CONCEPT IN PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS: A SCOPING REVIEW
Get PDFBackground: An often-occurring complication of diabetes mellitus is sexual dysfunction, often linked to poor blood sugar control. Despite its significant impact on patients' lives, issues related to sexual desire, education, and timely detection and management of sexual problems have historically been overlooked in diabetes interventions. This neglect may affect individuals' sexual self-concept and overall well-being. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between sexual dysfunction and sexual self-concept in diabetics.
Design: This research employs a scoping review design.
Data Sources: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using databases such as Web of Science, Open Alex, Crossref, Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and Semantic Scholar. Articles published between January 2018 and October 2023 were included.
Review Methods: The analysis followed the Arksey and O'Malley model and PRISMA guidelines. 26 quantitative articles were reviewed, including 24 cross-sectional studies and 2 observational studies, all using quantitative methodologies.
Results: Sexual dysfunction is prevalent among diabetes type 1 and type 2 in both men and women, influenced by physiological factors and glycemic control. Men may experience issues like diminished libido, premature ejaculation, and difficulty achieving orgasm, while women may face reduced sexual desire, arousal difficulties, and dyspareunia. Factors contributing to sexual dysfunction include age, duration of diabetes, glycemic control, comorbidities, medication use, psychological factors, and lifestyle elements like physical activity and stress levels. Sexual dysfunction in people with diabetes has a significant impact on sexual self-concept, which includes feelings, views, and beliefs about sexual relationships.
Conclusion: There hasn't been any specific research conducted on diabetic patients concerning the correlation between sexual dysfunction and sexual self-concept, highlighting the need for dedicated studies to address this association and raise awareness.Abstrak Latar Belakang: Disfungsi seksual adalah komplikasi umum dari diabetes mellitus, sering kali terkait dengan kontrol gula darah yang buruk.

DETERMINANTS OF NEONATAL PAIN MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AMONG NURSES WORKING IN NEONATAL CARE UNITS IN WESTERN KENYA HOSPITALS
Get PDFBackground: Newborn babies in the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and newborn units (NBUs) undergo various tissue-damaging procedures as a result of both diagnostic and therapeutic care. Each neonate may experience an average of 300 painful procedures throughout their period hospitalization surgeries inclusive. However, little is known about factors that determine the neonatal pain management practices among nurses working in NICUs in Kenya.
Objective: To assess factors that determine neonatal pain management practices among nurses working in neonatal intensive care and newborn units.
Methods: A descriptive analytical cross-sectional study design with qualitative and quantitative approach was used. The statistical package for social science version 22.0 software was used for analysis. Spearman’s tests assessed for associations and correlations. Confidence level was 95%. A p-value equal or less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Less than half of the respondents were aware of both the pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic methods used in management of pain in neonates. On beliefs and attitudes, less than half (42%) of the nurses believed that pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions are vital in neonatal pain management. Only a third (33%) of the respondents felt that the pain assessment tool is accurate and effective. Use of pain assessment tools (5.6%), non-pharmacologic (34.8%) and pharmacologic (28.1%) pain intervention strategies was low. Majority used physiological and behavioral factors to assess pain in neonates. Knowledge of pharmacologic (p<0.0001) was significantly associated with the practice of pain management in neonates.
Conclusion: The study highlights that pain management in neonates is influenced by a variety of determinants including participants knowledge on various pain management practices and attitude towards pain management in neonates. Knowledge of pharmacological pain interventions emerged as the main determinant of neonatal pain management practices among nurses. There is therefore need to enhance nurses’ knowledge on neonatal pain management aspects. This can be achieved through targeted trainings and CMEs on pain management in neonates
