Objective: To characterize patients undergoing cardiac surgery at a referral hospital in northern of Ceara. Method:
This is a quantitative and descriptive study using documentary analysis carried out by 176 medical records in
accordance with the ethical aspects of Resolution 196/96. Results: We identified predominantly men, married, living in
distant cities of the health service and a greater tendency for people over 40 years old. The hospital stay was low,
contributing to reduction of risks related to hospitalization, also reducing the cost of these services, for influencing
turnover and availability of beds. Discussion: This study shows high turnover and effectiveness of the service, allowing
also envision that the primary surgery is coronary artery bypass surgery in men with the duration of hospitalization in
about four days. Conclusion: We found that despite the risks of a cardiovascular surgery in the studied hospital, the
patients recover with a great success

A descriptive study of the Escuela Cenpritec school was carried out between September 15, 1969 and November 15, 1969 in La Paz, Bolivia. All pertinent literature was reviewed and interviews were conducted with school and government personnel. A fine physical plant has been constructed that is well lighted and equipped. It is adequately protected by a perimeter wall and by the services of a night watchman. Classes were being conducted in the four areas of electricity, plumbing, masonry and carpentry. Few of the objectives set forth in the organizational documents were met. Classes in the construction trades were offered but subsequent employment of the graduate in his specialty was very low. Coordination of on-the-job training, or, for that matter, any other kind of construction training in the city by Cenpritec did not exist. Only one class in training for the rural worker was held and efforts to encourage his return to the rural areas were unsuccessful because job opportunities were better in the city. Training for the student was at the very basic level and no classes for specialists were ever held. Basic literacy courses did not materialize even though widespread illiteracy among the study body hindered efforts to teach the building trades. No classes in management and supervision training were held. Difficulties which surround the school were myriad. The initial feasibility study apparently was not accurate and was based upon subjective evaluation rather than statistical data. Many promises of support, financial aid and help were never fulfilled. The Board of Directors often failed to discharge its duty in the direction and administration of Cenpritec. The Peace Corps advisors failed to ensure total operation of the school in accordance with its legal documents. A breakdown in communications between USAID/Bolivia and the Peace Corps/Bolivia led to confusion regarding responsibility for the school, conditions necessary for continued financial aid, and extent of authority of the volunteer instructors. Inability or unwillingness of the Government of Bolivia to accept readily its financial responsibility for the school suggests that future funding may reach crisis proportions. A policy for the continued evaluation and observation of Cenpritec does not exist and the rapid exchange of American personnel in Bolivia has led to the responsibility for its operation being placed primarily in the hands of the Peace Corps volunteer instructors. Future successful operation of Cenpritec will depend upon a careful reassessment of its role with respect to the construction industry, a reactivation of the Board of Directors, a pledge of support from the Bolivian Government and a commitment by American officials for continued, long term supervision.

Life satisfaction plays an important role in the quality of life and performance of a human in any profession, including teachers. The teacher is a professional educator with the main task of educating, teaching, guiding, directing, training, and evaluating students in elementary and middle schools. Life satisfaction refers to an individual's overall judgment or global evaluation about his or her life condition. This study is a quantitative descriptive survey study that aims to analyze and describe the relationship between demographic factors with school teachers' life satisfaction at Palopo and Toraja Region in South Sulawesi. This research using SWLS (Satisfaction with Life Scale) with 111 respondents who came from several schools in Palopo and Toraja region. Result of this research found that most of the teachers (67,6%) were satisfied with their lives, and the rest (32,4 %) are not satisfied with their lives. Based on the cross-tabulation analysis and non-parametric correlation, its proven that several demographic factors, namely gender, employment status, ethnic groups, length of services, income perception, and salary comparison perception have a significant correlation with teachers' life satisfaction. In particular, with ordinal regression analysis, we found that educational status, income perception, and salary comparison perception has influence teachers' life satisfaction. Government and Private Educational Foundation should do effort to increase teacher's income and have a career development plan for teachers to maintain their subjective wellbeing level.

Background: As the Neonatal sepsis occupies the major cause of Neonatal mortality in developing countries like India, the present study was planned to understand the scenario of the neonatal septicemia cases so as to allow the better planning and management of these cases to control and reduce the total neonatal mortality. Research Question: What are the socio demographic profiles and various reasons associated for the cause of higher incidence of Neonatal sepsis in our setup? The setting of the study was at NICU, department of Pediatrics, Government medical College, Ongole, Andhra Pradesh. A one year observational study was conducted during the period from January 2019 to January 2020 on 100 Neonatal Septicemia Patients admitted in NICU by studying their Socio demographic profiles, Parity of mothers, Preterm delivery, Birth weight and Clinical factors etc. Results: Both male and female babies suffering from Neonatal Septicemia during the above specified period were taken into study and majority of the study group (64%) were males. And among the total study group maximum 82% of cases were babies delivered to mothers came from rural area and also interestingly maximum number of cases were LBW(low birth weight) babies and preterm babies. In this study the cases were distributed inversely proportional to the parity of mother. Low birth weight (82%), poor socio-economic status (78%), male predominance (66%), Birth anoxia and Resuscitation (30%) and preterm delivery (28%) were noted as predominant predisposing factors. And finally, it was observed that deaths were more among LBL babies (23%) and Preterm babies (9%) in this study with the overall mortality (27%).

It is widely acknowledged that involvement in sport has positive physical and psychosocial benefits for adolescents. However, concerns have been expressed, both in New Zealand and internationally, about the relatively high attrition rates in youth sport. This qualitative study captured the experiences of eight (five male, three female) adolescents who were no longer participating in high school rowing programs in New Zealand. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, and we conducted an inductive thematic analysis. A secondary analysis was then conducted using a self-determination and basic psychological needs framework that placed specific emphasis on need satisfaction and need thwarting. Key findings from this study suggest that participants' experiences of rowing were initially positive but were subsequently influenced by dissatisfaction and thwarting of basic psychological needs. The findings confirm the significance of coaches and parents providing an environment that supports young athletes' needs for relatedness. Concerns are also raised about the potentially damaging effects of weight-restricted sport for adolescents. By drawing upon athlete voice, it is hoped that the findings of this study can inform coach education and result in the development of more athlete-supportive rowing programs for adolescent athletes.
