Background: Compliance with post-COVID-19 pandemic precautionary safety measures will likely vary... more Background: Compliance with post-COVID-19 pandemic precautionary safety measures will likely vary depending on the country and local government. It is expected that precautionary safety measures will continue to be enforced in public spaces to prevent further infection spread. Aim: Assess nursing students' knowledge and compliance with precautionary safety measures post covid-19 pandemic. Design: Description study. Setting: Faculty of Nursing, Damanhour University. Subjects: A convenience sample of 1080 undergraduate nursing students from the four study levels. Study tools: Two tools were used. Tool (I) Nursing students' knowledge regarding COVID-19 precautionary safety measures questionnaire and Tool (II) Nursing students' compliance with precautionary safety measures post covid-19 pandemic questionnaire. Results: Showed that (65.7%) of studied students were female, (80.0%) had fair compliance levels, and (62.7%) had good knowledge, with a highly positive correlation between knowledge, and compliance pattern among the study group (p=0.025,r=-.068*). Conclusion: Students showed good knowledge and fair compliance level, with a statistically significant relationship with most of the students' demographic characteristics. Recommendations: Nursing students are a valuable source of public information and serve as a bridge between the healthcare industry and the public. Therefore, it is important to keep abreast of the latest updates with available knowledge of preventive precautionary safety measures and obtain information from reliable resources.

Background: Difficulty in passing urine and increased frequency of urination are common symptoms ... more Background: Difficulty in passing urine and increased frequency of urination are common symptoms of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a prevalent condition among elderly males characterized by the enlargement of the prostate gland, and urinary tract infections. Patients with BPH who require catheterization are at higher risk for developing Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), which makes such a group of patients in a crucial need to develop effective strategies to prevent and manage such conditions. Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of self-care practice guidelines of Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) on patients with benign prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted in the urology departments at Alexandria Main University Hospital. A convenience sample of 60 adult patients with BPH was equally divided randomly into two groups: a study group (n=30) and a control group (n=30). Two tools were used for data collection: a (BPH) patients' knowledge assessment questionnaire and a (BPH) sign and symptom severity structured interview schedule. Results: The study showed a significant improvement among the study group's knowledge, international prostate symptom score (IPSS) symptom severity, quality of life, catheter care, and patients' practices for urinary tract infection-related signs and symptoms and catheter care, comparing to the control group. Conclusion: The provision of effective education had a profound impact on improving patients' knowledge and practice.
