A severe shortage of oxygen was experienced, and it was realized that some method of estimating the oxygen consumption should be available in order to streamline the distribution network of oxygen. \u0000Methods: In this paper, the authors propose a method of estimating the daily oxygen consumption for a hospital based on different formulae used to calculate oxygen consumption by various oxygen therapy devices. The proposed method was tested for its accuracy by measuring the actual oxygen consumption during the same period on the basis of pressure gauge readings difference observed on the liquid oxygen tank. The estimated and actual oxygen consumption was calculated each day for a period of 10 days. \u0000Results: The mean estimated oxygen consumption was 1.26±0.11 metric Tonne (MT), and the actual consumption was 1.34±0.08 MT. The estimated and actual consumption had a positive and significant correlation between them (correlation coefficient of 0.699). Reliability analysis performed using the Cronbach’s alpha revealed a factor of 0.94 as a coefficient between both variables indicating that the actual and calculated oxygen consumptions are nearly equal. The Bland and Altman analysis revealed a good agreement. \u0000Interpretation and Conclusions: It is concluded that the total oxygen requirement can be reliably estimated based on the proposed formulae, which can be useful to estimate the oxygen consumption of different hospitals, and plan the distribution of oxygen in a city or a district as a part of preparedness to deal with future surges of COVID-19 infections, if any.","PeriodicalId":302882,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research & Development","volume":" 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141679505","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}

Sociodemographic, clinical, and psychosocial variables have been identified as major risk factors for distress and it extends along a continuum, ranging from common feelings of vulnerability, sadness, and alarming to problems that can become disabling.Objectives:To determine the level of distress among cancer patients and sociodemographic factors affecting distress among the cancer patients. Materials & Methods: The study was a cross sectional study using purposive sampling technique. All the patients above 18 years who were admitted from 1st March 2021 to 31st August 2021 were included in the study.The information was collected from patients using NCCN Distress Thermometer (DT) and problem checklist, a validated tool to assess the distress levels and their association of distress with problems. The data was compiled and statistically analysed using Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS Software 23.0 version) IBM Chicago. Results: out of 567 participants, 64.6% study subjects were above 50 years. This shows that the number of patients were increasing with increasing age. In all, 60.5 % were females and 39.5% were males. Majority of patients were having moderate to severe distress (50.6%) followed by 37.9% who had mild stress and 11.5% had no stress.It was observed that education, occupation and socio-economic status were significantly associated with the level of distress while age, sex and marital status had no association. Conclusion:Holistic approach in cancer treatment including psychological, spiritual and emotional evaluation and its solution for the same at appropriate time enhances the quality of life of the patients.

Good dietary habits during pregnancy play a significant role in determining the long-term nutritional status of both the mother and the foetus. To determine the likelihood of nutritional deficiency and to provide pregnant women in both urban and rural locations with suitable dietary advice, poor dietary intakes during pregnancy can result in inadequate nutritional status and have an additional impact on the health of the mother and the unborn child. \u0000METHODS: The study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology unit in Chennai. The investigation comprised 100 pregnant women in both urban and rural areas. The patients were assessed using anthropometric and dietary methods, including a Food Frequency Questionnaire and 24-hour recall. \u0000CONCLUSION: The dietary habits of pregnant women in urban areas show higher nutrient intakes than their rural counterparts. The dietary pattern of pregnant women in urban areas is better than that of rural areas due to their healthier food choices. A balanced diet can help a pregnant woman improve maternal health and enjoy a safe pregnancy for both herself and her foetus.","PeriodicalId":302882,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research & Development","volume":" 33","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141679913","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}
