Abstract
Introduction : In recent years, the number of children with incurable diseases and their EOL care requirements has increased alongside the developments in technology. Throughout history, nurses have sought ways to improve EOL care. Gaining an increased understanding of nurses’ perceptions of changes that would facilitate appropriate EOL care is important to improve quality care. This study, therefore, was conducted to determine pediatric nurses’ perceptions of intensity, frequency of occurrence of supportive behaviors in providing pediatrics EOL care.
Method: Using a translated modified version of (NSCCNR-EOL) questionnaire perception of 151 convenient nurses of supportive behaviors intensity and frequency was assessed.
Results: The highest/lowest PSM scores belonged to items respectively: “providing a peaceful, dignified bedside scene for family members once the child has died” (5/75) in health – care professional related category and “letting the religious leader take primary care of the grieving family” (1/08) in organizational related category. Some demographic characteristics of nurses including family and close friends' death experience (P=0/01), number of dying children cared for (P=0/01) and previous education toward death and dying (P=0/01, 0/04, 0/04) was positively correlated with PSM scores.
Conclusion: The result may indicate a long distance between what nurses believe to be facilitating and what actually happens. Creating a reflective narrative environment in which nurses can express their feelings about death and dying may be an effective approach. A continuing palliative care education adding to nursing curriculum can improve the EOL care quality.

Abstract
Introduction: Children with thalassemia need blood transfusion to survive. The intravenous cannulation is a requirement for blood transfusion, which is a painful and frightening procedure and can cause severe anxity. Repeated exposure to severe anxiety have a meaningful relationship with psychological problems in children. Multiple methods introduced or under research to reduce anxiety in children during medical procedure especially intravenous cannulation. The aim of current study is to compare the effect of vapocoolant spray and EMLA cream in reduction of anxiety due to intravenous cannulation.
Methods: This was a controlled randomized clinical trial with crossover design. A convenience sample of 40 children between the ages of 6 and 12
years was enrolled between June and November 2015 in Ali Asghar hospital, Tehran, Iran. After the baseline measurement of anxiety samples were randomly allocated in one of two intervention groups by block randomization. The first group received EMLA cream before intravenous cannulation in the next blood transfusion and vapocoolant spray in the third one. The second group has the opposite arrangement. The anxiety was measured by a self-reported visual analogue scale. Anxiety was measured before and after each cannulation. The data was analyzed using independent t-test, paired t-test, Pearson correlation, ANOVA and ANCOVA tests by SPSS 16.
Results: The results showed that the difference between EMLA cream and vapocoolant spray in reduction of anxiety was 1.94. The same difference between spray and baseline was 2.91. The differences in baseline measurement was 4.86.The vapocoolant spray had a lower effect in reduction of anxiety in compare of EMLA cream (p<0.05(, but it has a significant effect in compare with baseline measurement (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results of current study, vapocoolant spray can reduce the anxiety of children with thalassemia during intravenous cannulation. Despite the lower effect of spray in compare to EMLA cream, it can use for patients with allergic reaction to lidocaine/procaine or in emergency situations.

Abstract
Introduction: Medication is considered as one of the most common and critical tasks for nurses. Identifying the rate and barriers of self-reporting the medication errors is essential to maintain patient safety and improve the quality of nursing care. The aim of this study was to evaluate the self-report of the medication errors in the pediatric wards and its barriers from a nursing viewpoint.
Methods: In this cross-sectional and correlational study, 148 nurses of Bahrami children's hospitals and Children's Medical Center affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences were selected using the census method in 2015. Data were collected by a researcher-made questionnaire including demographic information, the incidence of medication errors and barriers to underreporting of medication errors. To ensure the reliability of questionnaire, calculating Cronbach's Alpha Coefficient for Internal Consistency was used. The data were analyzed by SPSS version 16.
Results: 112 (76%) the nurses have been committed medication errors during their last year of work and Only 28% of the them had self-reported medication errors. 88% of nurses have experienced barriers to self-reporting medication errors and the incidence of medication errors (injectable and non-injectable) was 89%. The most common errors were associated with using abbreviated names of drugs and the nominal similarities of some drugs with some other. The most common barriers to reporting of medication errors were associated with nurses' fear of the effect of the errors on serious harm to the patients, blood money payment, and impact on annual evaluation after reporting. The logistic regression model showed no significant relationships between the incidence of the medication errors with the nurses' sex (p=0.19), age (p=0.065), job experience (p=1.21), employment status (p=0.81) and education (p=0.59) and showed a significant relationships between shifts and the incidence of the medication errors (p =0.004).
Conclusion: Given that the majority of medication errors were not reported by the nurses, it is needed to create necessary settings to facilitate and increase reporting the medication errors by them. Creating a positive relationship between the managers and the nurses and providing the appropriate atmosphere at the time of reporting is suggested.

Abstract
Introduction: Education is important for improvement of knowledge of health care professionals. Web-based education could be considered because of the flexibility of the education system, providing a good opportunity to extend, and deepen learning of health care providers. This study aimed to assess the impact of virtual learning on knowledge of nurses working at the NICU.
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 80 nurses working in the neonatal intensive care of a Tehran University of Medical Sciences hospital, using random sampling method (lottery), were divided to two experimental and control groups. Through the virtual symbol system (through Learning Management System (LMS)) of the virtual school of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, the experimental group received two months of training. The training had an asynchronous on–line learning method using educational content in the form of visual (multimedia files), audio (podcasting) and text files (PDF). The study was conducted within 2 months during years 2015 to 2016. Data was collected by a demographic questionnaire and the Caring Ability Scale (CAI) on the first day and two months after the intervention was used to assess nurses.
Results: Subjects in the intervention and control groups were matched in terms of demographic variables. The results of the independent and paired samples t-test showed that there were no significant differences between the unmeant score of care ability in the two groups before the intervention (P = 0.001), and between the mean caring ability before and after the study (P = 0.071). However, there were significant differences between the mean caring ability of the intervention group before and after the intervention (P < 0.001) and between the mean caring ability of the two groups, after the intervention (P < 0.001).
Conclusions: E-learning can be used in a flexible manner, which allows access to multimedia and interactive educational content at any time and place to train nurses.
