Libyan Healthcare Professionals ’, Patients’ and Caregivers’ Perceptions and Religious Beliefs about Cancer Pain and its Management: A Descriptive Qualitative Study

D07-D ‘If I Didn’t Have my Spiritual Beliefs, I Would Struggle.': Exploring the Spiritual and Religious Beliefs of Workers in a Residential Aged Care Facility, in the Face of Death, Dying and Suffering in the Workplace
Staff in Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs) continually face the deteriorating health, and eventual death of residents they have come to know and care for. Without the public recognition, workplace training or resources that staff in other palliative care areas are afforded, research has shown that RACF staff often call on the meaning they find in their role, the hope that residents have gone to ‘a better place’ and the strength of relationships, as sources of support.

Back pain beliefs among Indian migrants in Australia: a cross-sectional study

Awareness of these beliefs could enable an effective therapeutic alliance between clinicians and Indian patients.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONBack pain beliefs of Australian Indian migrants are similar to their western counterparts, so the current guidelines for back pain can potentially be implemented without too much adjustment for this migrant community.Awareness of these beliefs is likely to improve the ...

Obstetric Physicians' Beliefs and Knowledge on Guidelines and Screening Tools to Reduce Opioid Use After Childbirth.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that obstetric physicians' individual beliefs and clinical insight play a key role in pain management decisions for women after childbirth. Practical and scalable strategies are needed to: 1) encourage obstetric physicians to use professional or regulatory guidelines and standard opioid risk-screening tools to inform clinical decisions about pain management after childbirth, and 2) educate physicians and patients about nonopioid and nonpharmacologic pain management options to reduce exposure to prescription opioids after childbirth.

Conclusions The Arabic BBQ has good comprehensibility and acceptability, acceptable agreement with the English BBQ, high internal consistency and test-retest reliability. We recommend its use with Arabic-speaking LBP patient to determine their beliefs and attitudes about their back pain, as they have been shown to be important predictors of persistent LBP disability. Implications for Rehabilitation There are limited valid and reliable outcome measures for back pain in Arabic. The Back Beliefs Questionnaire (BBQ) is a tool that measures attitudes and beliefs about back pain. We recommend the use of our valid and reliable, t...

Core qualities of an educational program to reduce fears and beliefs of GPs about low back pain: Results of a GPs, experts and literature survey.
CONCLUSIONS: Data source triangulation revealed that the core qualities of an educational program targeting fears and beliefs about LBP among GPs should include evidence-based information, web-based interventions and a multidisciplinary panel of experts. Our findings will help us to design a provisional targeted educational intervention. This will be further assessed in a mixed-method feasibility study and then in a randomized controlled trial.
