To control the spread of the virus effectively, social distancing, self-isolation and quarantine, lockdowns and mass inoculation are vital. In this paper we propose a deterministic epidemic model which is an extension of the SEIR model to understand the disease dynamics.The proposed model has eight compartments, Susceptible1, Susceptible2, Exposed, Infected, Quarantined, Isolated, Recovered and Dead and is termed as the S1S2EIQJRD model. The basic reproduction number Ris derived for the proposed model and it is shown that for the disease dies out and for the disease is endemic. Numerical simulations for the growth of the virus across India through the span of the outbreak are obtained. The simulation is done on real data and the results obtained may be used to make suitable inferences about the dynamics of the disease and appropriate measures can be taken to control its spread.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86529499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among all frontier, Bangladeshi nurses are also playing a dynamic role to control infection through direct contact with COVID patients. Objective: This research aims to identify the level and predictors of poor knowledge of nursing students toward the COVID-19. Method: This study was a quantitative type of cross-sectional study with 150 participants randomly selected from 226 students of the Armed Forces Medical Institute located in Dhaka Cantonment of Dhaka city of Bangladesh. Data were collected by using a pre-tested questionnaire through a telephonic interview by trained and experienced interviewers. Analysis was done by using univariate, multivariate techniques followed by regression modeling. Result: Overall level of knowledge was observed poor (67.3%) among more than half of BSc nursing students. A greater part of nursing students got poor knowledge on the preventive measures to reduce transmission of COVID 19 (98.7%;40.20±12.39) & management of COVID 19 (94.7%;40.20±12.39). In terms of predicting the causes of poor knowledge, this study found that BSc nursing students of the second year (AOR= 2.53, p < 0.01) are more likely to have poor knowledge on COVID-19 compared to another educational group. Conclusion: Nurses are the frontiers to mitigate COVID-19 and manage the affected people effectively. Therefore, knowledge of them needs to be perfect to ensure the proper practice to prevent COVID-19. Thus, an enthusiastic and demonstrative learning system is required to make them knowledgeable enough against COVID-19.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"146 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76086938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: The study involved thirty subjects. There were categorized into three groups with Group I (10 subjects with healthy periodontal status), Group II (10 subjects with mild to moderate periodontitis) and Group III (10 subjects with severe periodontitis). The clinical parameters such as plaque index, gingival bleeding index, clinical attachment loss and probing depth were recorded. Stress was measured using Holme and Rahe stress rating scale. Blood and Saliva sample were collected and Serum Plasma and Saliva CgA levels evaluated using ELISA. The data obtained from all the three groups were analyzed using SPSS Systat 12 software. The mean variables between the three groups were analysed using Kruskal Wallis test. The correlation between the variables and the stress scores was assessed by Pearson’s correlation test. Results: The results of the study showed significantly higher CgA levels in saliva and plasma of patients with severe periodontitis compared with moderate periodontitis and healthy individuals (P < 0.05). There was also a positive correlation between stress scores and Salivary, Serum CgA levels and all clinical parameters. Conclusion: A significant association between elevated Cg A levels in saliva and plasma with periodontal disease was present in our study. The results suggest that Salivary and Plasma Cg A can be considered as a useful biomarker for evaluating etiopathogenesis of Periodontitis.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90645725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multi department Quick and Rapid response teams (Q/RRT) worked continuously as the pandemic passed through different stages. The objectives of the study was to compare the challenges faced during contact tracing and document good practices in place. Methods: A cross –sectional study was done among contact tracers using a semi structured questionnaire in Google forms in three districts of Pali, Jodhpur and Barmer. Keeping power of study at 80%, 5% error and 95% confidence interval, assuming 50% prevalence of effective contact tracing and 10 % non-response total 400, i.e 133 participants from each district. Results: Major challenges faced by tracers were resistance to contact sampling (64%)lack of training (49%), and random sampling workload (47%). Overall 36% of contacts had downloaded the Aarogya setu app but among them only 68% were using the app. Trainings, workload distribution and inter-sectoral coordination was best in Jodhpur, Barmer and Pali respectively. Conclusions: Trainings helped in better field management of resistance to sampling among contacts. Excessive workload of lab technicians lead to errors in reporting. Transport for sampling of contacts was a challenge in remote areas. The Aarogya setu app was not used by all contacts. Regular feedback meetings by local administration helped in effective contact tracing.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78557267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
