    Abstract Background: Ethical decision‑making and behavior of nurses are major factors that can affect the quality of nursing care. Moral development of nurses to making better ethical decision-making is an essential element for managing the care process. The main aim of this study was to examine and comparison the effect of training in ethical decision-making through lectures and group discussions on nurses' moral reasoning, moral distress and moral sensitivity.
    Methods: In this randomized clinical trial study with a pre- and post-test design, 66 nurses with moral reasoning scores lower than the average of the community were randomly assigned into three equal groups (n = 22) including two experimental groups and one control group. Ethical decision-making training to experimental groups was provided through the lectures and group discussions. While, the control group did not receive any training. Data were collected using sociodemographic questionnaire, the nursing dilemma test (NDT), the moral distress scale (MDS) and the moral sensitivity questionnaire (MSQ). Unadjusted and adjusted binary logistic regression analysis was reported using the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals.
    Results: Adjusted regression analysis showed that the probability of increasing the nursing principle thinking (NPT) score through discussion training was significantly higher than lecture (OR: 13.078, 95% CI: 3.238-15.954, P = 0.008), as well as lecture (OR: 14.329, 95% CI: 16.171-2.005, P < 0.001) and discussion groups compared to the control group (OR: 18.01, 95% CI: 22.15-5.834, P < 0.001). The possibility of increasing moral sensitivity score through discussion training was significantly higher than lecture (OR: 10.874, 95%CI: 6.043-12.886, P = 0.005) and control group (OR: 13.077, 95%CI: 8.454-16.774, P = 0.002). Moreover, the moral distress score was significantly reduced only in the trained group compared to the control, and no significant difference was observed between the experimental groups; lecture group vs. control group (OR: 0.105, 95% CI: 0.015-0.717, P = 0.021) and discussion group vs. control group (OR: 0.089, 95% CI: 0.015-0.547, P = 0.009).
    Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that ethical decision-making training is effective on empowerment of ethical reasoning. Whereas the group discussion was also effective on increasing the ethical sensitivity, it is recommended the training plan provided in this study to be held as workshop for all nurses in health and treatment centers and placed in curricular plan of nursing students.
    Registration: This randomized clinical trial was registered in Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials under code (IRCT2015122116163N5) in 02/07/2016.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between types of ventilator and the one-year survival rate of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to SARS‑CoV-2 infection. This multi-center, retrospective observational study was conducted on 1078 adult patients admitted to five university-affiliated hospitals in Iran who underwent mechanical ventilator (MV) due to ARDS. Of the 1078 patients, 781 (72.4%) were managed with ICU ventilators and 297 (27.6%) with transport ventilators. Overall mortality was significantly higher in patients supported with transport ventilator compared to patients supported with ICU ventilator (16.5% vs. 9.3% P = 0.001). Regression analysis revealed that the expected hazard overall increased with age (HR: 1.525, 95% CI 1.112-1.938, P = 0.001), opacity score (HR: 1.448, 95% CI 1.122-2.074, P = 0.001) and transport ventilator versus ICU ventilator (HR: 1.511, 95% CI 1.143-2.187, P = 0.029). The Kaplan-Meier curves of survival analysis showed that patients supported with ICU ventilator had a significantly higher 1-year survival rate (P = 0.001). In MV patients with ARDS due to COVID-19, management with non-ICU sophisticated ventilators was associated with a higher mortality rate compared to standard ICU ventilators. However, more studies are needed to determine the exact effect of ventilator types on the outcome of critically ill patients.

    Abstract Background: Absent or delusional memories are experienced by many patients following an intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Up to 70% may have delusional or hallucinatory intrusive memories, which may persist long term. This study aims to investigate how spiritual health (SH) impacts ICU patients' memories and quality of communication (QoC) between patients and physicians (PP) or nurses (PN).
    Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted across the country on ICU patients discharged from 45 medical centers in 31 provinces of Iran, to evaluate the direct and indirect effects of SH and ICU characteristics on patients' memory. Two valid and standard ICU memory tools (ICU-MT) and SH questionnaires were administered to patients 1 day post-ICU discharge used.
    Results: No significant direct effect of SH scores on ICU-MT items was observed. No significant correlation was observed between PP-QoC and PN-QoC variables and primary items of the ICU-MT. Female sex positively correlated with the development of delusional memories (odds ratio [OR]: 1.730, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.025-2.915,
    Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that the spiritual health indirectly increased coping with intrusive memories, however, no direct effect was observed on ICU-MT items. The quality of communication between patients and physicians and nurses significantly mediated development of intrusive memories.

    Abstract Background: Use of capnography as a non-invasive method during the weaning process for fast track extubation (FTE) is controversial. We conducted the present study to determine whether pulse oximetry and capnography could be utilized as alternatives to arterial blood gas (ABG) measurements in patients under mechanical ventilation (MV) following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
    Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 70 patients, who were candidates for CABG surgery, were randomly assigned into two equal groups (
    Results: The end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) levels in the intervention group were completely similar to the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCo2) in the control group (39.5 ± 3.1 vs. 39.4 ± 4.32,
    Conclusion: Our results suggests that capnography can be used as an alternative to ABG. Furthermore, it is a safe and valuable monitor that could be a good alternative for ABG in this population. Further studies with larger sample sizes and on different disease states and populations are required to assess the accuracy of our findings.

    Abstract Background: Physiological and psychological changes during menopause can affect the quality of marital satisfaction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of self-care education program on the severity of menopause symptoms and marital satisfaction in postmenopausal women.
    Methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, 70 postmenopausal women who referred to the gynecology clinic of Baqiyatallah and 502 Artesh hospitals in Tehran, Iran, and met the all inclusion criteria were randomly allocated into two equal groups (intervention and control groups) using block randomization. The intervention group received self-care training program in physical, psychological, social and sexual dimensions in 5 sessions during a week. The control group also had 5 sessions exactly the same as the intervention group, except that they received only routine care and training. Data were collected pre- and post-intervention using Menopause Symptoms' Severity Inventory (MSSI-38) questionnaire and the Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale (RDAS) questionnaire.
    Results: In the control and intervention groups before the intervention, socio-demographic characteristics (P > 0.05), the mean scores of MSSI-38 (P = 0.388) and RADS (P = 0.476) were not statistically significant. However, in the intervention group the mean scores of MSSI-38 (49.88 ± 3.3 vs. 39.33 ± 3.7, P < 0.001) and RADS (35.15 ± 4.3 vs. 49.48 ± 3.2, P < 0.001) after the intervention changed significantly and this change were statistically significant compared to the control group. Significant inverse correlation between severity of menopausal symptoms and marital satisfaction was observed with r = -0.461, P < 0.001.
    Conclusion: Our findings indicate that self-care training has a positive effect on the severity of menopause symptoms and also improves marital satisfaction in postmenopausal women. Therefore, we recommend that more attention be paid to providing self-care educational content to improve the marital satisfaction in postmenopausal women.
