Background and Aim: All hospital services are carried out to serve the patient, which is the main axis in the hospital. Patient satisfaction can be indicative of the right performance service delivery and is considered a reliable source for evaluating the quality of health care. The present study was conducted to evaluate the satisfaction rate of discharged patients in a Navy hospital. Methods: The descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 220 discharged patients selected by convenience sampling in a Navy hospital during 2019. The data gathering tool was the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire designed by Amerioon in 2009 and its validity and reliability were confirmed in 2016. The questionnaire assessed patient satisfaction in two healthcare sections with 21 questions and three dimensions of hygiene, nursing and physician services, and non- health care with 27 questions and six dimensions of acceptance, staff attitudes, nutrition, welfare, facilities, religious issues, and refines evaluation. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 18. Results: The patient satisfaction in the medical and non-medical wards was 88.1% and 86.57% respectively. Satisfaction in the medical and non-medical wards was excellent at all dimensions. There was a significant relationship between satisfaction with the cause of referral, and level of education (P 0.05). Conclusion: Considering the high level of patients 'satisfaction in medical and non-medical services, patient satisfaction in medical services was slightly higher than that of non-medical services, this highlights the need for independent research in this area and the actions taken by hospital managers to improve satisfaction in these sectors. It is also suggested to consider patient satisfaction as part of the discharge process in all hospitals
Acute kidney injury (AKI) and glomerulonephritis can be complications in COVID-19 patients, which is announced with widely incidence rates in different investigations and is determined to have a major effect on the prognosis of the disease. There are considerable variations in AKI and glomerulonephritis rates between other countries. The rate is generally lower than in Western Europe and the United States in China. Heterogeneity in different racial and ethnic lines can be a potential explanation. This investigation systematically reviews the scientific resources regarding AKI and glomerulonephritis among hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Both observational and interventional investigations(including case reports) with English full-text provide essential data, with no limitation in release or peer-review. More evidence is required to assess the AKI, especially glomerulonephritis in Covid-19 patients, for better management of Covid-19.
