Effect of Self-Care Guidelines on the Knowledge, Practice and Clinical Outcomes of Patients with Chronic Heart Failure Disease
Abstract: Background: Self-care guidelines for patients with chronic heart failure disease (CHFD) is considered as a strategy for promoting their knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes. Aim: this study aimed to evaluate the effect of self-care guidelines on knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes of patients with CHFD through the following: 1) assessment of knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes of patients with CHFD. 2) developing and implementing self-care guidelines. 3) evaluating the effect of self-care guidelines on knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes of patients with CHFD. Study design: a quasi- experimental design was utilized to conduct this study. Setting: the study was conducted at cardiac outpatients’ clinics at Ain Shams university hospitals. Subject: a purposive sample of 60 patients with chronic heart failure disease were select. Data collection tools: 1) patients’ assessment tool 2) patient’s knowledge assessment tool regarding CHFD 3) patients’ practice observational checklists and 4) patients’ clinical outcomes assessment tool. Results: there were significant improvement in the studied patients’ knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes post guideline implementation compared to pre. Conclusion: application of self-care guidelines for patients with CHFD has positive effect on improving knowledge, practice and clinical outcomes regarding dyspnea, sleep quality, fatigue and mood. Recommendations: Further researches are recommended periodically to be carrying out on new approaches in the area of management of patients with CHFD and evaluate its effect on patients’ outcomes. Replication of the current study on a larger probability sample is recommended to achieve generalization of the results and wider utilization of the designed program. Establish interdisciplinary approach in management of CHFD.

Philip Albert Theodor Kircher. Poverty Reduction Strategies. Gottingen Studies in Development Economics. Frankfurt, Germany: Peter Lang, 2002. xiv+275 pages. Paperback. Price not given.
Poverty is one of the most depressing global problems in the
world today. Therefore, there is a growing consensus among development
organisations that poverty alleviation should be the primary goal of
cooperation between the rich and the poor countries. This consensus is
due to the awareness that a widening international income gap threatens
the well-being of people in the rich countries. In this volume, the
author, Philip Kircher, offers a comprehensive study on the evolution,
the content, the different national accentuations, and the problem of
the international consensus on poverty alleviation, and provides a
systematic analysis of today’s donor strategies for development
cooperation for poverty reduction. The study focuses specifically on the
strategic positions of the World Bank, the Department for International
Development (DFID) of the United Kingdom, the Ministry for Economic
Cooperation and Development (BMZ) of Germany, and the Swedish
International Development Agency (SIDA), as well as the positions
presented by the governments of these countries in regard to
development
Design for Sustainability and Project Management Literature – A Review
AbstractThe growing pressure on natural resources and increasing global trade have made sustainability issues a prime area of concern for all businesses alike. The increased focus on sustainability has impacted the way projects are conceived, planned, executed and evaluated in industries. Since project management literature has hardly been considered in design for sustainability research, this article attempts to review the points of intersection between these two fields, and explores the potential that knowledge from project management literature has in improving efficiency and effectiveness of development and implementation of design for sustainability tools
