One research titled “Prevalence and Impact of Procedural Pain During Pediatric Needle Procedures” by Ms Kayal Ponnilavan
This research focuses on how frequently children experience pain during needle procedures and how that pain affects cooperation, repeat attempts, and laboratory sample quality. It highlights that poor pain management is not just a comfort issue but a direct threat to clinical efficiency and diagnostic accuracy.
Second Research Titled “Hydration Practices, Restricted Bathroom Breaks, and UTI Risk Among Nursing Students” by Ms Clara Moustache
This study examines how inadequate hydration and delayed urination during clinical placements increase the risk of urinary tract infections in nursing students. It exposes a neglected occupational health issue where caregivers compromise their own health due to workload and clinical pressure.
