Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effects of Raphani Semen hot compress combined with low-frequency neuromuscular therapy in patients with neurogenic bladder (NB) after spinal cord injury (SCI), and to provide a reference for early rehabilitation nursing. Methods: Sixty patients with NB after SCI admitted to our hospital from June 2023 to June 2025 were selected as the study participants. They were allocated by the random-number table method into an experimental group and a control group, with 30 patients in each group. The control group received routine treatment and nursing care, whereas the experimental group received Raphani Semen hot compress combined with low-frequency neuromuscular therapy in addition to the interventions provided to the control group. The intervention lasted 2 weeks in both groups. The incidence of urinary tract infection, recovery of bladder function, and improvement in quality of life were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of urinary tract infection was 3.33% in the experimental group and 10.00% in the control group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). The residual urine volume was higher, bladder capacity was lower, and catheter indwelling duration was longer in the control group than in the experimental group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The maximum bladder capacity and maximum urinary flow rate were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group, whereas detrusor pressure during filling and maximum urethral pressure were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group; all differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The scores for the bother, limitations, fears, and feelings dimensions, as well as the total score, were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Raphani Semen hot compress combined with low-frequency neuromuscular therapy is conducive to early rehabilitation in patients with NB and has favorable clinical effects in preventing urinary tract infection and improving bladder function.

Abstract: Background: A constructive clinical learning environment (CLE) with a focus on student learning needs is vital for nursing education. Understanding the features of a healthy CLE for under graduate nursing students continues to be a challenge for healthcare organizations and educators in application of theory to practice. Objective: The objective of the study was to investigate the determinants of the clinical learning environment as perceived by BScN students in selected public universities in Kenya Methods: A descriptive quantitative cross-sectional design was employed where data was collected from consenting participants from two selected public universities in Kenya, using a pre-tested modified clinical learning environment inventory tool. The target population comprised of 125 fourth-year Bachelor of Science nursing students. The census technique will be used in this study. Quantitative data will be analyzed using SPSS version 27 for frequencies mean and percentages then presented using tables, charts, and graphs Results: The findings indicate that ward leadership style had a significant influence on clinical learning environment (F = 9.09; t = 3.63; p = 0.000 <0.05), ward culture had an influence on the clinical learning environment (F = 8.46; t = 10.76; p = 0.000 <0.05) and supervisory relationship influenced clinical learning environment (F = 1.13; t = 1.98; p = 0.020 <0.05) Conclusions: Ward leadership style, positive ward culture and supervisory relationships can foster a supportive clinical learning environment Recommendations: Strengthening leadership support for students while creating a supportive learning environment that promotes and maintain a collaborative learning culture is needed.
