The aim of the present study is to assess nursing interns' perception about role transition. Research Design: Descriptive design was used. Setting: the study was conducted at Tanta University main hospital. Subjects: Convenient sample of nursing interns students (N= 113) at Tanta University's main hospital and willing to participate in the study. Tool for data collection: Modified perceptions and expectations of role transition questionnaire were used. Results: Regarding total score of role transition, more than fifty (54.86%) of nursing interns perceived moderate level of role transition, almost fifty of nursing interns perceived low role transition in role preparation and organization and support domains (42.28%) and (49.56%) respectively. However, the majority of nursing internship (62.83%) perceived high role transition in role competency. Conclusion: This study concluded that nursing interns at Tanta University main hospital perceived level of role transition moderate, majority of them perceived high role transition in role competency domain while almost fifty of nursing interns perceived low role transition in role preparation and organization and support domains. -

Diabetes and Its Complications May 28-29, 2018 Osaka, Japan
Ibrahim El Bayoumy, J Diabetes Metab 2018, Volume 9 conferenceseries.com DOI: 10.4172/2155-6156-C3-084 International Conference on Diabetes and its Complications May 28-29, 2018 Osaka, Japan Identifying and addressing barriers for insulin use in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus Ibrahim El Bayoumy Tanta University, Egypt Background: Diabetes mellitus type-2 is characterized by gradual decrease in insulin sensitivity in the peripheral tissues and liver (insulin resistance), followed by gradual decline in β-cell function and insulin secretion. Thus, patients with poor glycemic control require the use of insulin therapy to achieve the target of American Diabetes Association, recommending HbA1c to be less than 7% (≥8% despite of optimal doses of anti-diabetic drugs). Aim: This study aimed to evaluate and addressing the barriers for use of insulin in type-2 diabetes mellitus patients, where their glycemic control is poor, i.e., HbA1c is ≥8% despite of optimal doses of anti-diabetic drugs. Research Design & Method: We surveyed 200 patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus, i.e., cross-sectional quantitative study; patients showed poor glycemic control HbA1c≥8%, already treated with one or more oral agents, who recently prescribed insulin to control their metabolic status. Data were obtained by patient’s interview using a validated questionnaire. The place of the study was in diabetes mellitus clinic in Farwaniyah Primary Health Care Center in Kuwait. Result: Patients with type-2 diabetes failing to initiate the prescribed insulin therapy have reported misconception regarding fear of hypoglycemia in 49% of the total sample, pain from injections in 68% and self-blame about need for insulin i.e., sense of failure in 61% of total sample of study. -

Such unprecedented GOCE data made it possible to improve the determination of the geoid over our study area, namely the Red Sea. The performance of GOCE global gravity field models (GGMs), at the end of its mission that lasted for 42 months, is evaluated using shipborne free-air gravity anomalies over the Red Sea. Seven recent GOCE-based GGMs, namely the DIR_R5, ITU_GGC16, SPW_R5, TIM_R5, NULP_02S, GOCO05C and GGM05G are assessed by means of the Spectral Enhancement Method (SEM) as well as the EGM2008 model. The evaluation focused the light on spherical harmonics degree/order (d/o) ranging from 100 to the maximum degree of the model with an incremental step of 20 d/o. -
