Abstract
Patient autonomy is the opposite of paternalism and an essential element in individualised, patient-centred, ethical care. Challenges associated with patient autonomy are culture-related and have not been fully investigated in Iran so far. The aim of this study was to explore the challenges to the autonomy of patients in Iranian hospitals.This was a qualitative study using conventional content analysis methods. In 2013 13 patients, 7 nurses and 1 doctor were selected from three Tabriz and Hamadan teaching hospitals using purposive sampling to participate in semi-structured interviews. The interviews were subjected to qualitative content analysis and analysed using the MAXQD10 software.Fifteen categories and three themes were identified. The three main themes related to challenges associated with patient autonomy were: interpersonal factors, altered relationships, and organisational constraints. In summary, this study revealed some challenges associated with patient autonomy that the treatment team, managers and planners in the health care system should target in order to improve patient autonomy.

Abstract
Moral distress has been identified in nursing literature as a major dilemma affecting nurses in all healthcare systems. It is viewed as an important factor threatening the integrity of nurses and ultimately the quality of patient care. The present study attempted to determine levels of moral distress among the nursing staff employed in hospitals across the city of Malayer. This was a descriptive and cross-sectional study conducted on 195 nurses of Malayer hospitals during 2015. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and the standard moral distress scale (MDS). Data analysis was performed by descriptive and analytical statistics using SPSS software version 18.
In this study, 88 nurses (45.1%) were found to be suffering from severe moral distress. The most important factors causing moral distress pertained to substandard care and treatment due to a shortage of health professionals and care providers (6.6±0.21), physician orders for unnecessary tests, treatments and care (6±0.12), and measures taken by staff who lacked clinical competency (5.9±0.22). Among the nurses’ demographic data, gender (P=0.001), job experience (P=0.001) and nursing ward (P=0.01) were significantly related to the level of moral distress experienced by the nursing staff. The results imply that in nursing, moral distress is a highly important and pertinent issue that requires greater consideration by health service managers, policymakers and nurse educators.

Abstract
Spiritual health (SH) is a supernatural force and endeavor to achieve perfection and peace of mind in life.When it is endangered, a person experiences loss of meaning in life. In nursing, caring services and SH are related to each other. It is necessary to promote the SH of nurses so that patients will receive better care. The study aim was the effect of spiritual education on SH of nursing students. In this quasi-experimental study, 76 of undergraduate nursing students were selected using random simple sampling method and divided into experimental group (EG) and control group (CG) (n= 38) with random allocation method. Educational intervention was done for the EG for a period of 4 weeks, a 60-minute session per week, but no intervention was performed for the CG. Four weeks after the intervention, the post-test was taken in 2 groups. Data were collected using the SH scale by Paloutzian and Ellison. Independent t-test didn’t indicate any difference before the intervention in the mean score of SH in 2 groups (t=-0.49, p=0.62), while in the post-test, the independent t-test indicated the mean score of SH was higher in the EG than in the CG (t=-2.14, p<0.03). After the intervention, there was a significant increase in the SH (t=-4.39, p<0.001) in the EG. The paired t-test indicated no difference in the SH in the CG compared to the pre and post-test (t=-0.25, p<0.79). Spritual education influenced SH of nursing students. It is recommended that spiritual education be considered as one of the strategies for promoting SH in students.

Abstract
Empathy is considered an essential prerequisite for a nurse to effectively care for a patient. Also, spirituality is an important component in nurse-patient relationships. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between empathy and spiritual attitude among nursing students. In this descriptive and correlation study, the samples consisted of 272 nursing students that were studying in 3 Medical Sciences Universities in Tehran, 2017. Samples were selected through convenience sampling method. Data were collected by demographics’ data form, validated and reliable scales of empathy and spiritual attitude. Data were analyzed by descriptive and analytical (Pearson Coefficient, Independent T test, and ANOVA) statistics. The students had a mean empathy score of 106.982 ± 14.65 that this was more than median scores of scale (60). Furthermore, they had a spiritual attitude score of 115.79 ± 15.8 that this was more than median scores of scale (86). Findings indicated that a significant relationship between empathy and spiritual attitude among nursing students (r=.265, p=.0001). Gender, educational level, interest in nursing, work status, and the average score of the previous term had significant relationships with empathy (P < 0.05). Interest in nursing and work status had significant relationships with spiritual attitude (P < 0.05).Research findings support the hypothesis of association between empathy and spiritual attitude. Since empathy has a significant relationship with spiritual attitude, it seems that nursing students’ empathy will increase by promoting their spiritual attitude.
