Effective asthma management is a necessity for the control and optimal outcomes of the condition. A number of factors may either facilitate or act as barriers to the management of asthma in adolescents. The objective of this study was to assess the feelings, thoughts, and behaviors of adolescents diagnosed with asthma regarding the management of their condition. This exploratory qualitative study was conducted using semi-structured, in-depth interviews with 12 adolescents aged 12–18 years who were followed up with a diagnosis of asthma at a university hospital pediatric allergy clinic between October 15 October 2023, and December 15 December 2023. The study was written using the COREQ checklist. Three main themes were identified in this study: (1) facilitators, (2) barriers, and (3) information. Adolescents reported that they needed more information about medication use and asthma disease to manage asthma. Asthma control ability, positive beliefs, and supportive relationships were facilitators of asthma management. However, poor asthma control, negative beliefs, lack of support, poor communication, and asthma-related stigma were identified as barriers to asthma self-management. Adolescents had information needs in asthma management. This study highlights that barriers to asthma self-management in adolescents are much greater than the facilitators. For adolescents to manage their asthma well, their information needs must be met. Therefore, pediatric nurses should prepare individualized training to meet the specific needs of adolescents.

Dementia not only affects the person living with the condition but also their family and wider social circle. For that reason, it is important to educate family members, the wider public and health professionals. How a child and young people's (CYP) nurse supports and responds to a CYP whose family member has dementia or acts as a carer is of interest to pre-licensure (pre-registration) CYP nursing programs. With serious games becoming more common as a method to educate a diverse population regardless of age and gender, this study aims to learn if playing a kid's dementia awareness game improves CYP nursing student's attitude to dementia using a validated pre-/posttest questionnaire. This study adopted a pretest, posttest design to assess the attitudes of pre-licensure CYP nursing students toward dementia. The Approaches to Dementia Questionnaire (ADQ) was administered before and after playing a serious CYP kid's dementia game developed by children and people living with dementia for 10- to 11-year-old children. The ADQ measured the total score, Hope subscale, and person-centered approaches. Matched paired t-test was used for analysis conducted with SPSS statistics 29. Seventy-two participants, from one university in Northern Ireland, completed pretest measures, of these, 55 also completed the posttest questionnaire. The participating CYP pre-licensure undergraduate and postgraduate nursing students demonstrated a significant increase in overall dementia attitudes post-gameplay, with an increase from 78.31 to 83.27. Subscales for Hope (27.75 to 30.44) and person-centered approaches also exhibited significant improvement (50.56 to 52.84). Demographic data revealed all participants as female, with 50% knowing a person living with dementia, and limited training experiences. In conclusion, this study has shown a positive response to playing a dementia game relevant to the child population. This adds to the literature building on the use of serious games for health education. Attitudes and hope scales increased with the use of the game.

Crafting a “TransitionOmeter”: A Proposed Framework for Developing and Honing Capabilities of Young People Transitioning to Adult Healthcare Services

打造“过渡计”：为年轻人过渡到成人医疗服务开发和磨练能力的框架建议

In Brazil, nasal irrigation is a common procedure for children hospitalized with respiratory conditions. However, it often causes stress for both the child and their family. Nurses need to rethink their approach to care, and the use of therapeutic play can be an ally in transforming the stressful context. To understand the family perceptions of nasal irrigation in hospitalized children after an educational intervention mediated by instructional therapeutic play (ITP). This descriptive, exploratory, and qualitative study was conducted from the perspective of Herbert Blumer's Symbolic Interactionism in a hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. The study included family members of hospitalized children aged 3–6 years who participated in an ITP intervention and remained for 6 hours afterward. Participants self-reported literacy with preserved cognition and verbal communication. This study was conducted between March 2023 and January 2024 using semi-structured interviews with 38 family members. Data were analyzed using Bardin's thematic content and lexical analysis with IRAMUTEQ® software. The interaction of families with ITP for nasal irrigation in children led to a redefinition of the procedure from distressing to enjoyable. ITP was evaluated as an essential and stimulating method that familiarized the child with the procedure, facilitating the understanding process for both the child and the family. ITP is a caregiving technology that nurses can use to assist with nasal irrigation, re-signifying the experiences of children and their families during the procedure.
