In this way directional performance plays an important role. The aim of the study was to investigate the head nurses’ directional performance through self-measuring and nurse-measuring viewpoint in Qom educational hospitals in 2014. Materials & Methods: This was a descriptive study that all the head nurses (58) and nurses (202) in teaching hospitals of Qom in 2014 invited to study. Data was collected through a self-made questionnaire. This questionnaire was designed to determine the directional performance of head nurses. The analysis of internal reliability was done using the Cronbach alpha coefficient) 0.96(. Statistical analysis of data was carried out by descriptive and analytical statistics using SPSS ver. 21.0 software.  Results: Independent t-test showed a significant difference between the head nurses’ directional performance through self-measuring and nurse-measuring viewpoint (P <0.05), so that head nurses had a more favorable view relative to their directional performance. Item of "appropriate reward system based on nursing practice" was the weakest performance from the perspective of nurses. Conclusion: There is a gap between the viewpoint of nurses and head nurses about the present status of directional performance in head nurses; then it is necessary that all the nurse managers try for self-empowerment and promote the quality of the directional performance process.

This study was conducted to assess the effect of self-management on performance of elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis attending an orthopedic clinic. Material & Methods: In this quasi experimental study, 88 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee were selected by convenient sampling, and consisted to intervention (44 patients) and control (44 patients) groups. Initially, performance of patients was measured using WOMAC inventory. Then, the intervention group received one 70-minute session of training program per week over 4 weeks. Next, they were given the opportunity to practice the program at home for 4 more weeks. Afterwards, performance of both groups was assessed and compared. Data collected were analyzed in SPSS-18 using Chi-square and independent t-test. Results: No significant difference was found between the two groups in mean performance before intervention (P>0/05) but after intervention, mean performance in the intervention group was significantly higher compared to the control group (P<0.05). Moreover, results showed a significant improvement in mean performance of patients in the intervention group before and after intervention (P<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in the mean performance before and after intervention in the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: Results obtained showed improved performance in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee due to self-management training program. By using appropriate diet and pain relief methods, along with exercise, patients will be able to better tolerate exercise movements, and thus improve their performance. 2253 nursing The Effect of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing on Patient Anxiety while Waiting Cardiac Catheterization Abdi N i Mohamadi K j Bashti S k Zaj P l i MS in Critical Care Nursing, Department of nursing, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Yasuj University of Medical Sciences, Yasuj, Iran.

Despite the significant contribution of these products to preserve and improve the quality of life, poor control at any stage - before, during or after the injection- can lead to complications for the patients and it can cause many risks and affect patient safety. Therefore, this study aimed to assess patient safety in the process of transfusion at the Hospitals affiliated to Tehran University of Medical sciences. Material & Methods: This study was a descriptive and observational study. The surgical wards, emergency units and ICU were randomly selected from two hospitals. The instrument of this study was a Checklist with 38 questions developed based on the guidelines for transfusion process, as well as an extensive review of published literature. The observations performed using patients' files and nurses' performances. Data analyzed by SPSS version 16. Results: The results of the study have shown that the patient safety met favorably in less than a fifth (19.2%) prior to injection and about one third during injection (32.7%). In case of side effects, the majority of subjects had desired performance (over 70%) for treat the signs and notifying the doctor. Conclusion: According to the results, it is recommended that in-service courses be taken in the transfusion process and emphasize on observing patient safety before and during injection as a protective stage for preventing from any risk and complication. In addition, it is recommended the guidelines of the transfusion process provide to nurses so that they can implement them.  2269 nursing Effect of Developmental Care on the Duration of Mechanical Ventilation in Preterm Infants Sabaghi S Nourian M Fallahi M Nasiri M MS of Neonatal Intensive Care, International Division of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran,Iran, Neonatal Health Research Center (NHRC), Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.

Although mechanical ventilation has saved many infants' lives, like other treatments; it has not been without harm. Developmental care intervention is a potential method for reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation in infants. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of developmental care interventions on duration of mechanical ventilation in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. Material & Methods: This quasi-experimental non-randomized study was conducted on 60 preterm infants of gestational age ≤33 weeks with respiratory distress syndrome who were divided into intervention and control groups. Infants in the control group received routine nursing care, and those in the intervention group received developmental care as well as routine care. Results: Mean duration of ventilation was 3.63±2.94 days in control group and 4.06±3.05 days in intervention group, with no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.57). Conclusions: According to the results obtained, developmental care interventions had no effect on duration of mechanical ventilation in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome.  2270 nursing Patient’s View about the Protection of Privacy by Healthcare Practitioners in Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Qom, Iran Dehghani F Abbasinia M Heidari A Mohammad Salehi N Firoozi F Shakeri M Master in Financial Management, Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, Qom University of Medical Sciences, Qom, Iran.
