ABSTRACT Background
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection may take place due to poor hygienic practices involving stethoscope utilization and cleaning. Despite possibility of infection that may occur in stethoscopes used in hospitals, nurses have a great role in eliminating this infection through stethoscope care, meticulously and regularly provided before and after patient care.
Objective
The specific aim of the study was to explore the practices employed by nurses in different hospitals in Pampanga regarding the care of stethoscope.
Method
A validated questionnaire containing the items of the study was administered to 211 nurses in different hospitals of Pampanga. Quantitative data were group according to frequency and percentage distributions and were analyzed and interpreted using literature review.
Results
Findings revealed a minority of nurses who had their own stethoscope, where majority of which relied on hospital supply of stethoscope in their practice in the clinical area. Stethoscopes were cleaned infrequently before and after patient care using alcohol swab.

ABSTRACT
Hydatid cyst disease (HCD) is one of the most significant zoonotic parasitic illnesses, which is known to be caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. The present article is the first paper to report the first case of hydatid cyst of neck as a right lateral cystic mass in Iran. For this purpose, A 54 year -old Iranian man with the complaint of mass and swelling in the right lateral part of the neck was hospitalized in general surgical ward of Velayat hospital, Qazvin, Iran. It is concluded that hydatid cyst of neck soft tissue is uncommon and unusual even in endemic regions and therefore, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis of neck swelling.
Keywords:
Hydatid cyst, Echinococcosis, Neck swelling, Iran.INTRODUCTION
Hydrated cyst disease (HCD) is one of the most important zoonotic parasitic diseases produced by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus [1].
Echinococcus granulosus is mainly kept in a dog- sheep-dog cycle, however several other domestic animals may be involved, including goats, pigs, horses, cattle, camels and yaks. Humans are accidental intermediate hosts and are not capable of transmitting disease. [2] Hydatid cysts occur in the liver in 75% and in the lungs in 15% of cases. Head and neck involvement is rare (perhaps as low as 1%) [3] The prevalence of the disease varies from region to region but is most commonly seen in
Latin America, the Middle East, other parts of Asia and SubSaharan African countries [4]. Based on epidemiological reasons, World Health Organization has introduced Iran as a hyperendemic region for hydatid cyst [5]. Here in this article, we report the first case of hydatid cyst of neck as a right lateral cystic mass in Iran.
CASE PRESENTATION
A 54 year-old Iranian man with the complaint of mass and swelling in the right lateral part of the neck, was hospitalized in general surgical ward of Velayat hospital, Qazvin, Iran. This swelling appeared during 2 months and had not increased or
