Objectives: The study aims at identifying the nurses’ knowledge about peritoneal dialysis complications, to
construct an education program for nurses in peritoneal dialysis units, to determine the effectiveness of the
education program upon the nurses' knowledge about complications of peritoneal dialysis, and to identify the
relationship between the nurses’ knowledge and their demographic characteristics of level of education and
years of experience.
Methodology: A quasi-experimentai study was carried out at the peritoneal dialysis units of Baghdad teaching
hospitals, from April 2004 to April 2006.
٨ purposive sample of (50) nurse was selected from Baghdad teaching hospitals. These nurses working at the
peritoneal dialysis units to provide nursing care for a patient who has undergone peritoneal dialysis.
The data were collected through the use of constructed questionnaire, which comprised of (56) item distributed
in (7)sections.
The reliability of the instrument was determined through test-retest and the validity through a panel study of
experts.
The data were analyzed through the application of descriptive statistical analysis that included (frequency,
mean, mean of scores, standard deviation, and percentage) and the application of inferential statistical analysis
that included (test for independent sample, test for dependent sample pre-test and post-test, pearson
correlation coefficient, Chi-square, and analysis of variance for the difference between pre-test, post-testi, and
post-test2 of the study group).
Results: The results of the study indicated that the education program had a positive impact on the knowledge
of nurses in peritoneal dialysis units regarding peritoneal dialysis complications and significant association was
identified between the nurses' knowledge relation to their education level at the study group (pre-test).
Recommendations: Based on the result of the study, the study recommended that Nurses who are working at
the peritoneal dialysis unit should be encouraged to participate in education program and training session for
their benefit of their practice in such units, in service continuing education program should be presented to
nurse at the peritoneal dialysis unit on a regular base to maintain their level of knowledge.

Ombitasvir, paritaprevir with ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) ± ribavirin (RBV) is approved to treat HCV genotype 4 (GT4) infection. Here, our objective was to delineate the efficacy and safety of OBV/PTV/r plus RBV in treating of Egyptian naïve patients infected with HCV GT4.
Methods a cohort of 100 Egyptian patients infected with HCV GT4 was allocated and administered orally OBV/PTV/r with RBV. The primary endpoint of our study was a sustained virological response (HCV RNA < 12 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the c

Vortex generators work effectively on medium and high angles of attack, since they are "hidden" under the boundary layer and practically ineffective at low angles.
The height of VGs relative to the thickness of the boundary layer enables us to study the efficacy of VGs in delaying boundary layer separation. The distance between two VGs also has an effect on the boundary layer if we take into
