As biomedical waste handlers are the core of biomedical waste handling, their knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding sorting, segregation, transport, and storage of the waste are of prime concern. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge, attitude and practices of personnel involved in biomedical waste handling about COVID-19 and its biomedical waste management at All India Institute of Medical Sciences Mangalagiri. Design: Cross-sectional survey. Setting: AIIMS Mangalagiri and common bio-medical waste treatment facility at Guntur. Participants- Personnel involved in bio-medical waste handling Methodology: The study enrolled a total of 139 participants from December 2020 to January 2021. A convenient sampling technique was used and a questionnaire was administered by face-to-face interview. Results: The study showed that half of the participants had favorable knowledge about bio-medical waste management (average score 5.08 and range 1-9). Two-thirds of the respondents felt that handling COVID-19 waste is necessary to contain the infection. Conversely, the practices regarding COVID-19 and its biomedical waste management were not in conformity with attitudes and knowledge. Fewer participants knew the exact sequence of donning (15.80%) and doffing (31.70%). Majority of participants (72.7%) desired a hands-on training for handling biomedical waste. Conclusion: Participants have good knowledge and attitudes regarding COVID-19 bio-medical waste management, but are not adhering to it. This explains the need for comprehensive training programs for all those involved in bio-medical waste management of COVID-19.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"28-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10650634","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}

Hence, patients' perception is one of the quality care measures. Thus, this study purposed to assess the patients' perception of quality nursing care and services in emergency department in Jordan. A cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design was adopted on a sample of patients who attended the emergency department (N = 427). Findings demonstrated that most of the health sectors in Jordan had a high level of patients' perception of quality nursing care and related emergency department services (M = 3.93, SD = 0.72). Furthermore, the private sector had the highest mean score (M = 4.18, SD= 0.70), while the government sector had the lowest mean (M = 3.11, SD= 0.38). The level of perception had positive relationship with income (r = 0.097; p < 0.05) and qualifications (r p.b = 0.093; p < 0.05). The number of visits showed a significant negative correlation with patients' perception level (r = - 0.095; p < 0.05). Thus, there is a need for improving the quality of nursing care and services in the emergency department at hospitals by strengthening the policy and enhancing the nursing services supporting system. Establishing plans to develop the infrastructures, equipment, physical environment, sanitation, and facilities in the emergency department to meet the patients' needs to enhance the quality of care and services are needed.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"10-19"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40683079","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}

However, there is a lack of tools to assess healthcare organizations' readiness to adopt AI technologies. This study introduces the AI Readiness Five Dimension (AIR-5D) framework, addressing this gap. Methods: The AIR-5D framework was developed using a two-step process: identifying dimensions of AI readiness from literature and weighing these dimensions through expert focus groups. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was employed to calculate weights, ensuring consistency and reliability. Results: The results identified five key dimensions: Opportunity Discovery (0.44), Data Management 90.22), IT Environment and Security (0.194), Risk Privacy and Governance (0.101), and Adoption of Technology (0.043). \"Opportunity Discovery\" was the most critical dimension, while \"Adoption of Technology\" ranked lowest. Six case studies demonstrated varying AI readiness (score between 3 and 4 on a scale of 5), highlighting challenges in moving beyond AI collaboration to optimization. Conclusions: The AIR-5D framework offers a structured approach for healthcare organizations to assess and enhance their AI readiness. It emphasizes the importance of understanding value, robust data management, and strategic alignment in successful AI adoption.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142633536","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}

Nurses' and physicians' self-efficacy in performing ATCPGs skills were evaluated three months prior to and three months after the intervention's implementation. Multiple strategies of ATCPGs implementation improved the length of stay (LOS) in the ED for multiple trauma patients. The quasi-experimental design has been implemented in this interventional study. Post-intervention, the self-efficacy of ED healthcare providers in performing ATCPGs skills has increased. Implementation of the ATCPGs has improved the outcomes of patients with multiple traumas. There were 66 patients in this study, and 53 (80.3%) of them were male. The ATCPGs intervention resulted in a statistically significant decrease in the amount of time spent in the ED, as shown by a comparison of the ED LOS in minutes between the two groups (t = 2.56; p = 0.013). Implementing the ATCPGs has improved multiple trauma patients' outcomes. The results will help decision-makers at hospitals to facilitate interdisciplinary ATCPGs training sessions and establish policies and procedures to introduce adult trauma sheet in the ED to improve multiple trauma patients' outcomes.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142633541","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}

This study aimed to extend current knowledge by investigating the potential mediating roles of COVID-19 anxiety and COVID-19 burnout in the association between fear of COVID-19 and COVID-19 quality of life in nurses. A total of 300 nurses were selected by convenience sampling approach from a training and research hospital serving as a pandemic hospital in Turkey. COVID-19 anxiety, COVID-19 burnout, and COVID-19 quality of life data were collected using the self-reported questionnaires using both online and paper-and-pencil versions of the questionnaires. Structural equation modeling was used to conduct serial multiple mediation analysis. We found statistically significant associations among fear of COVID-19, COVID-19 anxiety, COVID-19 burnout, and COVID-19 quality of life. Serial multiple mediation analysis revealed that the association of fear of COVID-19 with COVID-19 quality of life was partially mediated by COVID-19 anxiety and COVID-19 burnout. These results indicate that the association of fear of COVID-19 with COVID-19 quality of life in nurses may be changed through COVID-19 anxiety and COVID-19 burnout, which appear to play serial multiple mediating roles in this association. These findings enrich our understanding of the associations among these psychological factors and suggest that focusing solely on fear of COVID-19 without considering the mediating effects of COVID-19 anxiety and COVID-19 burnout might not be adequate for reducing the COVID-19-impact on the quality of life among nurses.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142585182","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}

This study explores their perspectives on the barriers and facilitators of management of a child with T1D in a resource-constrained setting.Methods: This qualitative study, conducted in a tertiary level diabetes clinic in India, included parents of children with T1D, selected from subgroups varying in disease duration, education, habitat, and socioeconomic status, who participated in one of the five Focused Group Discussions (FGDs) of 60-90 min duration. The topic guide included questions like \"What are the barriers you face related to diabetes care of your child at home or school?\" and \"What do you think helps you in managing a child with diabetes?\" FGDs were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and inductive coding was done independently by two authors.Results: Twenty-eight parents (nineteen mothers and nine fathers, mean age: 35.1 years) of children aged between 2-13 years, were recruited till data saturation. Themes related to barriers of management were, 'balancing nutrition and glycemic control is challenging', 'diabetes management involves psychological burden' and 'operational challenges'. Parents opined that family support, gaining decision-making and problem-solving attitude and optimal school-time management helped.Conclusion: Parents living in resource-constrained circumstances perceive unique challenges during management of T1D in their children like social stigma, illiteracy, financial and logistic issues like procuring and storing essential supplies. A better understanding of these factors can aid healthcare professionals in managing them.","PeriodicalId":55886,"journal":{"name":"Hospital Topics","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142559570","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}
