On July 2004 the Telemedicine Center took part in the RESCUER/MEDCEUR project exercise. A special objective was the use of telemedicine facilities for distant consultations and sorting of victims directly at the event place. Telemedicine Center used appropriate telecommunication devices for joint activities of civil and multinational military services in critical situations such as mass casualty events. There were used ISDN lines and IP radio-connection. On the final and most intensive day of the anti-terrorism drills, the multinational force of medics at the Kairiu Training Range in Lithuania reacted to a large mass casualty event--treating hundreds of victims from a simulated train crash. Using on-line telemedicine facilities from Kaunas Medical University Hospital there were corrected the tactics of giving the first help and sorting of casualties. The most complicated initiated cases of eye trauma, neurosurgical trauma, maxilloface trauma and traumatic amputation of limbs evaluated and selected for emergent evacuation to the third level hospitals. All those cases transported to Kaunas and Vilnius Universities Hospitals by helicopters (200 and 300 km from the event place). The common use of existing military and civil telemedicine infrastructure showed the possibilities of interaction in management, giving the first help and sorting of casualties between military and civil medical services during the rescue operations.","PeriodicalId":79372,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Akademii Medycznej w Bialymstoku (1995)","volume":"50 ","pages":"201-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25754678","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}

Its main purpose is to transform populational attitudes to health and develop the sense of responsibility for it. Children constitute a particularly important populational segment in this respect.Purpose: The aims of this study were to establish pro-health behaviour-patterns among paediatric nurses.Material and methods: Ninety-one randomly selected nurses, employed in the Greater Poland's medical institutions were queried, through a specially designed questionnaire, on their nutritional habits, physical activity, and frequency of consulting their physician. A Microsoft Excel spread sheet was employed in performing statistical calculations, making use of such functions as sum, per cent and arithmetic mean.Results: Almost all subjects eat irregularly. The majority of them have two meals a day, omitting breakfasts. The proportion of ingredients containing fibre in their diet is insufficient, whereas monosaccharides are consumed excessively. The physical activity is about adequate; taking strolls are the preferred form. The respondents tend to overlook the first, disturbing disease symptoms, and rarely consult with their physician.Conclusions: (1) The life-style of paediatric nurses is not conducive to maintaining health, despite declaring the latter as the overriding life's value. (2) Chief aberrations in their health behaviour concern: irregular meals, consuming the excessive amount of monosaccharides, and preferring the passive forms of leisure. (3) In nurses' educational curriculum the role of health promotion in human life should be re-assessed, while the importance of health education in their future work should be emphasised.","PeriodicalId":79372,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Akademii Medycznej w Bialymstoku (1995)","volume":"50 Suppl 1 ","pages":"174-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25263770","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}

Frequent coexistence of depression and fear is one of the increasing problems in general clinical picture. Depression and fear are responsible for unclear and non-uniform clinical signs. They may modify the course of many illnesses and make diagnosis difficult. Firstly, the aim of research was to determine the difference of anxiety level in depressed patients compared with patients not suffering from depression. Secondly, examining if there is a dependence between the anxiety level and depression exacerbation. Thirdly, researching what types of physical and somatic signs are most often related to anxiety. Total number of examined patients amounted to 60 persons aged 65 and older. The persons were treated in The Geriatric Clinic of Medical Academy in Bydgoszcz. The patients did not suffer from dementia and their somatic state allowed to examine them. Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) was used in the research. Anxiety level was examined with Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA). Medical history on the patients current life situations was collected. The patients were divided into two groups of 30 persons based on the GDS examination result. One of the groups gathered patients with the signs of depression in every person while the other grouped those without depression. Examination results proved that the anxiety level in depressed patients is significantly higher than in nondepressed patients. They also showed what kinds of psychical and somatic signs are most often related to anxiety. Taking depression and fear symptoms into consideration makes the therapy proper and causes relief for the patients and makes them feel better. Interdisciplinary approach to treatment of elderly patients, covering medical and nonmedical areas of life can help in limiting the number of recurring hospitalization.","PeriodicalId":79372,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Akademii Medycznej w Bialymstoku (1995)","volume":"50 Suppl 1 ","pages":"272-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25264660","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}

It may result in various complications prolonging the period of convalescence and making the rehabilitation difficult, or even being dangerous to life. A nurse becomes irreplaceable in the process of pain evaluation just after surgical procedures since the pain intensity constitutes the basis for later treatment decisions. The aim of the research is the evaluation of postoperative pain in patients after thoracic and abdominal surgical procedures. 50 thoracosurgical patients and 50 general surgical patients were involved in the research. Patients were selected at random. A visual-analogue scale was used for pain evaluation and the categorisation table was used for the evaluation of patients' self-care ability. Statistical analysis was performed by means of STATISTICA 6 package (StatSoft, Inc). The results prove that in thoracosurgical patients pain intensity is lower and there is no dependence on the operation performed, as in the case of patients after surgical procedures within the abdominal cavity. Statistically significant differences were observed between groups of patients and the analgesic drugs used as well as pain intensity. The evaluation of patients' self-care ability does not depend on the intensity of pain declared by patients.","PeriodicalId":79372,"journal":{"name":"Roczniki Akademii Medycznej w Bialymstoku (1995)","volume":"50 Suppl 1 ","pages":"199-202"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25265419","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}
