Objective. The public image of nursing appears as a positive but has a negative aspect as well. It is based on myths, misconceptions and stereotypes, which may influence the choice of nursing as a profession, the employment and the work of nurses. The aim of this study is to explore what the attitudes and opinions of students about health care identity and respectability of the profession are, the role of the health care team, possibility to leave the country and satisfaction with nursing positions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Methods. The study was designed according to the type of cross-sectional study. An epidemiological survey was conducted at the Medical Faculty in Foca during the period 1st to 31st May 2017. The study included 60 students of nursing from the first to the fourth-year, students of different gender and age from 19 to 24 years, who, at the time of examination, attended study. Results. Most respondents, 90% are women, while the study involved only 10% of male students. Of the total number of examined nursing students, 43.4% disagree or generally disagree with the statement that other members of the team value nurses. The highest percentage of subjects (93.4%) agrees with the statement that the continuous improvement is required. Ninety percent of respondents agree with the statement that the nurses' job is just as responsible as the other members of the healthcare team. When it comes to the desire to go abroad, the majority (86.6%) would like to do so. Conclusion. Based on the survey results, we can conclude that among students prevail discontent with the position of a nurse in the healthcare team and the country, as well as the great interest in going abroad.
Introduction: Burnout syndrome is the answer to chronic, emotional and interpersonal stressors who are related to the workplace. It is characterized by mental or emotional exhaustion, a feeling of fatigue and depression with a more emphasis on psychological than physical symptoms. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of burnout syndrome among nurses at the JZU General Hospital Nisic and JZU Health Center Niksic. Material and methods: The research is designed to the type of section study. The study included 100 nurses at the General Hospital Niksic and the Health Center Niksic, different of sex, age, level of education and years of work. The data was collected by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (BMI), consisting of 22 questions posed as a series of claims that are evaluated, using the Likert scale (0-6). Results: Of the total number of respondnents in 36%, there is a burnout syndrome measured by the total MBI score, compared to 64% of subjects with no burnout syndrome. With the help of MBI scale it was found that 8% of respondents have a high level of emotional exhaustion, 38% have a middle level, and the remaining 53% of nurses and technicians have a low level. Conclusion: Based of the results of this research, we can conclude that sex and age of nurses / technicians do not affect the occurrence of a professional burnout syndrome. The nurses / technicians working in primary health care in a significantly lower percentage have a mean level of depersonalization. Also, nurses / technicians with longer length of service show a low level of personal success (achievements).
INTRODUCTION: Per year more people die from diabetic and vascular diseases (KVD) than from any other cause. Risk factors of the KVD are numerable and have a cumulative effect. The results of past studies shows that smoking cigarettes plays a key role in the development of KVD. THE AIM OF THE RESEARCH: Determine to the influence of smoking in health and education workers on development of the cardiovascular diseases. RESPONDENTS AND METHODS OF RESEARCH: Research was conducted to the type of section study in the population of health and education workers in the Berane municipality. The sample was composed of 109 health workers and 71 educational workers. In the research was participated all health workers employed in the Health Center 'Dr Nika Labovic' in Berane and all educational worker employed in the Primary school ,,Vuk Karadžic' in Berane. In the research was used the questionnaire, and the data was collected prospectively. As implementing instruments for research were used questionnaires: 'Work related stress' and 'Cindy'. χ square and ANOVA test were used for statistical data processing. RESEARCH RESULTS: The average age of health workers was 43.70 ± 11.90 years, while the average age of educational workers was 42.29 ± 10.90 years. More than half of health and education workers said that smoking. 36.7% of health workers and 39.4% of educational workers smoked daily. In the group of educational workers, the highest percentage of respondents (49.3%) are almost never exposed to tobacco smoke at work. In relation to health workers, educational workers are significantly worried about health effects of smoking. CONCLUSION: In the health and education workers of Berane municipality, smoking is a significant risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases.
To alleviate the problem of scarce spectrum resources and meet the ever-increasing of mobile broadband data traffic demands, Licensed Assisted Access (LAA)-Long Term Evolution (LTE), operating in the unlicensed spectrum, is a promising solution. Considering that the unlicensed spectrum is shared by a few incumbent systems, such as IEEE 802.11 (i.e., WiFi), one main target is to guarantee the friendly and harmonious coexistence of LTE with other wireless systems in the unlicensed spectrum. Both listen-before-talk (LBT) and duty cycle methods are regarded as effective ways to solve the coexistence problem in academia and industry so far. Although there are a large number of theoretical researches on LTE in unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U), field trail results are still lacking. In this paper, an experimental testing platform is deployed to model the realistic environment. This paper focuses on three aspects. First, a typical indoor field trial scenario in 5.8 GHz unlicensed bands is deployed, and the performance of LTE-U and WiFi, including coverage and capacity, is evaluated. Specifically, a methodology to determine the proper clear channel assessment energy detection (CCA-ED) threshold for LTE-U is proposed to implement the friendly coexistence between LTE-U and WiFi systems. Second, supplementary downlink (SDL) and Cell ON/OFF mechanisms are investigated to verify the fair coexistence between LAA and WiFi in the unlicensed spectrum. Third, the Enhanced Cell ON/OFF scheme, which introduces Clear to Send (CTS)-to-Self (CTS2S) message, is discussed and evaluated. Based on the built testbed, we obtain threefold conclusions. First of all, introducing LTE into unlicensed spectrums can greatly improve the spectrum efficiency and optimize wireless resources. Furthermore, test results and analyses show that a proper CCA-ED threshold is necessary for coexisting friendly and fairly among different systems, and experiments are also provided to validate the feasibility of the suggested method in various scenarios. Second, experimental results show that SDL mechanism guarantees relatively friendly and harmonious coexistence between LAA and WiFi only in the sparse scenario, while basic Cell ON/OFF mechanism is more effective to ensure coexistence between LAA and WiFi than the SDL. Finally, with the introduction of CTS2S message, the Enhanced Cell ON/OFF scheme is able to achieve more peaceful coexistence between LTE and WiFi users employed in the same bands compared with the Basic Cell ON/OFF scheme.
