MATerIAL And MeTHods: A quasi-experimental design was used for 50 nursing students in semester 8 ran domly assigned to the experimental and the control groups. A disaster educational program for nursing students was developed based on Harden’s model.

In the next stage, the program was implemented and finally, the evaluation was carried out. resULTs: The mean age of the participant was 21.4 ± 2.14 and 57.1% of them were women.

The present study aims to evaluate occupational hazard prevalence among emergency medical service (EMS) paramedics, the possibility of occupational illness incidence, and related prophylaxis. MATerIAL And MeTHods: The participant sample consisted of paramedics employed in five mobile EMS oper ational areas in the Masovian voivodship. The study involved 238 people, including 223 men and 15 women. The mean age was 39.03 ± 9.27 years for males, and 31.93 ± 7.76 years for females. The study took place between May and September 2019 using diagnostic survey methodology. resULTs: Participants ordered the following factors based on a scale of threat: biological factors (47%), psychophysical factors (41%), chemical factors (7%), and physical factors (5%). Health issues included musculoskeletal system discomfort (39%) and mental overload (33%). Participants indicated harmful biological factors to cause illnesses such as influenza (85%), tuberculosis (79%), and hepatitis B or C (70%). The study showed that 73% of the participants are occupationally exposed to patient aggression, while 15% experienced occupational burnout. concLUsIons: Paramedics are exposed to a number of occupational hazards daily.

Decision-making is the most important part of their profession because they often have to make quick decisions and act on them despite critical situations. They are often the first to deal with a Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient and experience severe physical, mental, or moral stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the level of anxiety and professional competence of prehospital emergency medical personnel in the COVID-19 epidemics. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This descriptive-analytical study was performed in 2021. A total of 200 prehospital emergency medical personnel were included in the study. Sampling method was census using a valid questionnaire of Corona Anxiety Scale and professional competence. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software version 21 via descriptive statistics and analytical tests. RESULTS: Mean and standard deviation of professional competence and anxiety of emergency medical staff were reported as 82.37 ± 65.13 and 98.17 ± 11.11, respectively. The results of the study on the relationship between the scores of the studied variables showed a significant relationship so that the level of anxiety with competence was remarkably related (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The stress and anxiety of the COVID-19 epidemic might have adverse effects on the professional competence of prehospital emergency medical personnel as well as their mental health. Applying strategies to reduce anxiety and attending disaster-related courses could help the quality of EMS by improving professional competence.

These events can affect a population’s health in different ways. The study aimed to identify mechanisms associated with morbidity and mortality in mass gathering (MGs) events. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a qualitative study that was conducted under a phenomenological ap proach. The study population included 21 people who were hospitalized due to injuries in the mass gathe rings. Data collection was conducted through semistructured and indepth interviews. RESULTS: A total number of 21 interviews were conducted in this study. Participants included 17 males and four females. Thematic analysis was used to identify 21 different themes and the themes were classified into five main areas. These five areas include Individuals’ unpreparedness, unprepared relief organizations, lack of proper response plans, and risky behavior and psychological reactions. CONCLUSIONS: The lived experiences of MGs victims showed that they need to be better educated at the community level about the potential MGs’ health risks. One of the most effective measures to reduce mor tality in the MGs is risk governance. Risk governance must be a national policy and priority at the time of holding large gatherings.","PeriodicalId":52339,"journal":{"name":"Disaster and Emergency Medicine Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49046408","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}

Misinformation regarding prevention and treatment for safeguarding against this pandemic seemed to be life-threatening along with the spreading pandemic. Public health authorities in the world tried to battle this virtual virus by offering true information and correcting misinformation. However, the public misinformation through social media caused toxicological consequences in some parts of the world which provoked awareness, response, and concern of the public health authorities including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the toxicology community. This study analysed the published literature on therapeutic disinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic and its toxicological effects. The electronic databases searched were Scopus, MEDLINE, Scielo. The used keywords were: “COVID-19”, “misinformation”, “social media”, “public health”, “drug toxicity”, and “education”. Finding new strategies for the prevention and treatment of the coronavirus again stresses the role of public education about true drug information. Hundreds of chemicals were/are being tested to be prophylactic medications or healing drugs for the coronavirus. Therefore, spreading accurate information and editing misinformation can be crucial. In summary, this commentary is going to bring attention to misinformation regarding prevention and treatment for safeguarding against the COVID-19 pandemic and its toxicological consequences and the need for public education on the appropriate use of therapies.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. A comprehensive literature search was performed (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane network), and studies comparing SSA levels in: (A) with non-severe vs severe COVID-19;(B) severe vs critical COVID-19 condition;(C) survived vs died due to COVID-19 in-hospital treatment period - were included. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to obtain pooled estimates. RESULTS: Thirty studies met the criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. Pooled analysis showed that SAA levels were statistically significantly lover in non-severe group 58.7 ± 53.9 mg/L compared to 154.5 ± 169.6 mg/L for patients with severe condition (MD = -120.29;95% CI: -135.35 to -105.22;p < 0.001). SAA levels among patients with critical condition were 89.5 ± 90.4 mg/L compared to 195.3 ± 206.2 mg/L (MD = -56.66;95% CI: -101.81 to -11.51;p = 0.01). SAA levels in patient who survived were 108.7 ± 157.3 mg/L, and 206.8 ± 58.8 mg/L for patients who not survived (MD = -85.04;95% CI: -145.78 to -24.29;p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, this updated meta-analysis suggests that SAA concentrations are positively correlated with the severity of the COVID-19. Therefore, SAA can be considered a biomarker for predicting the severity and prognosis of COVID-19. Measurement of this parameter might assist clinicians in monitoring and evaluating the severity and prognosis of COVID-19.
