Background & Aims: Appropriateness and Nature of clinical decisions and medical interventions in trauma management is one of the most important concepts in prehospital trauma care systems. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the nature of prehospital medical interventions delivered to traumatic patients in Tabriz.
Materials & Methods: In this descriptive study, the records of all traumatic patients activated EMS and led to a prehospital mission, investigated in 2014. A six-part checklist consisted of patients’ characteristics, mechanism of injury, type of trauma, level of consciousness, medical interventions, physician consult and coordination with the hospital were used for collecting data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied to the data by SPSS v.13 software.
Results: A total of 5614 out of 37002 registered missions during a year were related to trauma injuries. Traffic accidents (72.9%) were the most common cause of trauma and blunt trauma (85.6%) were the most common type of trauma among injured patients. Although 92/46%of traumas were related to head and neck trauma and multiple trauma, the cervical collar has been merely used for 11.5 percent of them. Also, 93% of the trauma missions led to the transfer of patients to the hospital while in 99.43% of them, no coordination was done between prehospital emergency medical services and hospitals’ A;E departments.
Conclusion: According to study results, despite the high percentage of trauma to the head and neck and multiple trauma, the cervical collar and long back board has been merely used for a few traumatic patients which is unacceptable and indicates the necessity of organizing prehospital trauma care courses and workshops for emergency medical technicians. Also, regarding the lack of coordination between prehospital and hospital facilities, it seems that a much more robust and organized structure is required in Iranian healthcare system.

Background & Aims: Assessment and management of pain in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation can be a major challenge for intensive care nurses. Behavioral pain scale (BPS) is one of the instruments which by using the behavioral indicators, studied pain in these patients. The aim of this study is to translate and determine the psychometric properties of the BPS.
Materials & Methods: Pain by using BPS at 6 times of before, during, and after nociceptive and non-nociceptive procedures in 60 patients hospitalized in medical and surgical critical care units. In re-test 33 patients studied after 8-12 hours.
Results: Alpha coefficient, 0/749 and the correlation coefficient between two evaluators in different times were (r = 0/78 – 0/94) was obtained. The correlation coefficient between test-retest was (r = 0/52 – 0/78). Significant differences in pain score between painful and non-painful procedures (p< 0/001), and higher pain scores in patients who confirm the pain (p< 0/001), revealed good discriminant, and criterion validities for BPS respectively.
Conclusion: Iranian version of BPS has good and reliable psychometric properties, for pain assessment in patients hospitalized in medical and surgical of intensive care units which do not have able to communicate.

Background & Aims: Postpartum depression is a debilitating disorder that occurs in approximately five to ten percent of mothers and half of those will not be detected. Symptoms include persistent crying, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, discomfort and irritability. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between postpartum depression with adipokines and cytokines.
Materials & Methods: This study is a review with a review of 18 articles derived from 52 articles related to risk factors and the relationship between hormones, adipokines and cytokines with postpartum depression searched the library and reputable online (pubmed, Science Direct, Iran Medex, Pubmed,) the period of 1996-2016was conducted.
Result: The evidence indicates an increase in markers of inflammatory and immune system in depressed patients. Adipocytes associated with depression. Ghrelin, leptin and cytokines have been associated with postpartum depression. More studies are needed in relation to adiponectin.Although other adipokines such as orexin, Nesfatin, apelin and hepcidin are associated with depression, but a study in the context of their relationship with postpartum depression are unknown.
Conclusion: Given that adipokines and cytokines associated with postpartum depression further attention and research about them as a predictive marker is required.
