Παπαθανάσογλου, Καθηγήτρια ΠΡΟΣ: Επιτροπή Έρευνας Καθ. κα Τούλα Ονουφρίου, Αντιπρύτανη Ακαδημαικών Υποθέσεων ΘΕΜΑ: Αίτημα Δαπάνης για Κάλυψη Εισιτηρίου για συμμετοχή σε διεθνές Συνέδριο ως προσκεκλημένηη ομιλήτρια ΗΜ/ΝΙΑ: 13/ /05/15 Αξιότιμα Μέλη της Επιτροπής Έρευνας, Δια της παρούσης αιτούμαι έγκριση δαπάνηςς δια την αγορά αεροπορικού εισιτηρίου προκειμένου να συμμετάσχω ως προσκεκλημένη ομιλήτρια στο Διεθνές Συνέδριο Εντατικής Θεραπείας, 12th Congress of the World Federation of Societies of Intensive and Critical Care Medicine, August 29 th - September 1 st 2015, Seoul, Korea. Συγκεκριμένα, θα παρουσιάσω 2 ομιλίες όπως μουυ ζητήθηκε από τους οργανωτές του συνεδρίου, και επίσης θα εκπροσωπήσω το Πανεπιστήμιό μας και μεε άλλες 3 ερευνητικές εργασίες ε που έγιναν αποδεκτές από την επιτροπή. Δεδομένου μετά τις 15 Αυγούστου, 2015 προγραμματίζω να μεταβώ μεε την οικογένειά μου στο Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, για να εγκατασταθούμε εν όψει της έναρξης συνεργασίας μου με το University of Alberta, λόγος για τον οποίο έχω λάβει έγκριση αδείας άνευ απολαβών από τη Σύγκλητο, θα σας παρακαλούσα όπως: 1. Εγκριθεί η δαπάνη εισιτηρίου από την ερευνητική δραστηριότητα μετ επιστροφής από και προς Edmonton και όχι Larnaca. Σχετικά, επισυνάπτω τις πιο συμφέρουσες πτήσεις και από τις δυο πόλεις όπου φαίνεται ότι η δαπάνη εισιτηρίου από Edmonton, ξεπερνά μόνο κατά 50 ευρώ την αντίστοιχη δαπάνη από Λάρνακα. 2. Εγκριθεί αποπληρωμή της δαπάνης άμεσα με την πληρωμή του εισιτηρίουυ και όχι μετά το πέρας του συνεδρίου.. Ο λόγος αυτού του αιτήματος είναι κατά πρώτον η δυσχερής οικονομική μου κατάσταση εξαιτίας των εξόδων που συνεπάγεται η μετάβαση και εγκατάστασή μας στον Καναδά, και δεύτερον η δυσκολία να λάβω τηνν αποζημίωση εκ των υστέρων υ εφόσον θα βρίσκομαι στον Καναδά. Εννοείται ότι θα υποβάλλω έγκαιρα με ταχυδρομείο τις κάρτες επιβίβασης και σχετικά δικαιολογητικά. Σχετικά επισυνάπτω, πρόσκληση από την οργανωτική επιτροπή του Συνεδρίου και αεροπορικά εισιτήρια. Ευχαριστώ πολύ για την κατανόησή σας και ζητώώ συγγνώμη για την όποια αναστάτωση. t,

SYSTEMATIC PAIN ASSESSMENT IN CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS E. Georgiou(1, 2), E. Lambrinou(2), A. Merkouris(2), E. Papathanassoglou(2), (1) Nursing Services, Ministry of Health, Cyprus ; (2) Cyprus University of Technology Background: Systematic approaches to pain assessment in critically ill patients are of paramount importance in adequate and safe care. Aim: To investigate the impact of a systematic approach to pain assessment on the intensity and incidence of pain and clinical outcomes in critically ill patients. Methods: Randomized controlled study with critically ill patients randomized in a standard care and an intervention group. The intervention consisted of the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) and the Critical Pain Observation Tool (C POT), which were completed twice daily, by independent observers. In the intervention group, ICU nurses and physicians were notified of the results. Mixed Anova for the interaction effect of group and outcome measurements throughout time was employed. Results: A total of 98 patients were included (control: n=50; intervention: n=48). There was a significant interaction between group and BPS scale scores throughout the first 3 days (Wilks lamda=0.846, p=0.035 η 2 =0.154) with intervention group patients exhibiting decreased pain intensity. Similar interactions were observed in the CPOT scale (Wilks lamda=0.856, p=0.052 η 2 =0.144). There was a trend for lower Incidence of severe pain (BPS>4) in the Intervention group (n=14 29.2%) than in Controls (n=20 40%) (p=0.18 Cramer s V=0.114). There was no significant difference between control and Intervention group in mortality in ICU (22% vs 19.6%) and in median length of stay (13 [8.5, 22.5] vs 14[9,22] days) Conclusions: Systematic assessment of pain may be associated with a decrease in the intensity and incidence of pain. Pain assessment tools should be incorporated into daily ICU practice.
EFFECTS OF A PSYCHO COGNITIVE NURSING INTERVENTION ON CRITICAL CARE PATIENTS' PAIN AND ANXIETY LEVELS Hadjibalassi M., Lambrinou E., Papastavrou E., Miltiadous P., Papathanassoglou E. Cyprus University of Technology Background/Purpose: In critical illness, adverse emotions, anxiety and pain influence patients psychological and physiological outcomes. We aimed to investigate the effects of a composite psycho cognitive nursing intervention on pain and anxiety levels in critically ill patients. Methods: Randomized controlled trial with sixty ICU patients randomized to an intervention or standard care group. The 60 min intervention consisted of presence, touch, relaxation, guided imagery, and music listening (for up to 5 days). Inclusion criteria included age 18, GCS 9 and understanding Greek. Patients were assessed in the mornings, pre and post intervention. Outcome measures included pain ratings [3 scales: 10 point numeric rating scale (NRS), behavioral pain scale (BPS), critical care pain observation tool (CPOT)] and self reported anxiety and Relaxation/calm (NRS). The study was blinded to caregivers and outcome assessors. Statistical analysis included Analysis of Covariance on the gain scores while adjusting for age and pre treatment measurement. Results: In the intervention group, significant decreases in pain ratings compared to the control group were observed on day 1, with regard to NRS (mean difference (DM): 1.64±1.14 vs. 0.07±0.87; p<0.0001 eta 2 =0.423;), CPOT (DM: 1.31±1.19 vs. 0.07±0.58; p<0.0001 eta 2 =0.332) and BPS (DM: 1.13±0.92 vs. 0.07±0.58F=28.65; p<0.0001 eta 2 =0.389). The intervention group also exhibited increased relaxation/calm levels (DM: 1.25±1.vs. 0.19±1.11; p=0.03 eta 2 =0.143), and decreased anxiety levels (DM: 1.20±1.32 vs. 0.07±0.52; p=0.009 eta 2 =0.202). Similar trends were observed throughout the study. Conclusion: Nursing interventions that combine relaxation, imagery and music may improve critically ill patients outcome and experience of care. Keywords: critical illness, intervention, relaxation, imagery, outcomes Acknowledgement: The study was funded by a Cyprus University of Technology grant to E.D. Papathanassoglou
