Therefore, adherence to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) has become a daily necessity, particularly among front-line personnel. However, PPE is associated with some adverse skin reactions; hence, this study aimed to investigate the characteristics and prevalence of adverse skin reactions from PPE usage.\u0000\u0000Methods: This cross-sectional study with a random sample was carried out at Bahrain Defense Force Hospital (BDF) from January to March 2021, targeting the front-line personnel. An online questionnaire was sent regarding adverse skin reactions from PPE. A total of 145 healthcare workers (HCWs) were approached, and 132 (91%) responded. The results were analyzed through SPSS 21.0 software, and the Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was used to analyze discrete variables.\u0000\u0000Results: A total of 100 (75.8%) respondents suffered from adverse skin reactions. The most common findings were skin dryness, 100 (75.8%); itchiness, 67 (50.8%); and acne, 48 (36.4%). The most affected distant site was hands, 92 (69.7%). Female gender was significantly associated with skin changes, and only 22 (22%) participants with adverse skin reactions took medical advice.\u0000\u0000Conclusion: Adverse skin reactions from PPE were common. Therefore, improving awareness of practical methods is quintessential.\u0000\u0000Keywords: COVID-19; Eczema; Hand Hygiene; Masks; Skin Care","PeriodicalId":85027,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Bahrain Medical Society = Majallat Jam'iyat al-Atibba' al-Bahrayniyah","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43338779","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}

Arteriovenous fistula is recognized internationally as the first choice of vascular access due to its long lifespan and low incidence of complications in comparison to other methods. Despite this, the rates remain poor. The aim of the study was to document the trend of vascular access currently observed in the hemodialysis centers. Methodology: This is cross-sectional study in Hemodialysis Centers in Ministry of Health, Kingdom of Bahrain. All patients undergoing regular hemodialysis in May 2020 were included in this study. Results: A total of 536 patients undergoing regular renal replacement therapy were recruited. Majority of the patients; 478 (89.2%) were on hemodialysis. Of them, 214 (44.8%) patients were on arteriovenous fistula/graft (AVF/ AVG), while the remaining 264 (55.2%) were on tunnel line. Causes of tunnel line hemodialysis were further evaluated. About 137(51.9%) patients were undergoing investigations. This was followed by patient refusal and unfit for surgery among thirty-five (13.3%) and 23 (8.7%) patients, respectively. The remaining patients were either awaiting surgery, or experienced complications post arteriovenous fistula/graft creation. Conclusion: In this study, a high use of tunnel line vascular access in HD was observed in comparison to AVF. A potential for higher utilization of AVF/AVG up to 60% was observed in this practice. Further studies and strategies to increase the usage of AVF is highly recommended to reach international standards and improve patient care.","PeriodicalId":85027,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Bahrain Medical Society = Majallat Jam'iyat al-Atibba' al-Bahrayniyah","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69074194","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}

To provide data for OGI in pediatric age group in Bahrain. Methods: All the hospital records of pediatric patients who were treated for open eye injuries at Salmaniya Medical complex between January 2015 to December 2020 were reviewed. Patients were divided into two groups according to their final visual acuity (FVA): Group 1, FVA better than 6/60, and Group 2, 6/60 or worse. The FVA of each group was compared to initial visual acuity (IVA), wound entry site, associated injuries, and medical treatment. Further comparison was made between school-age children (≥6 years old), and younger children. Results: A total of 21 children formed the study population. The injury was more common in school-age children (67%). Most injuries occurred while playing at home, during January and July (48%). The most common objects causing OGI were sharp pieces of either glass or metallic (62%) and pencil (9.5%). About 75% of patients had a final visual acuity outcome (FVA) of better than 6/60 (Group1), 25% had 6/60 or worse. Conclusion: Most of OGI occurred at home and during student’s holidays. Objects causing OGI were sharp common household items. Emphasis on education to prevent such injuries is essential.","PeriodicalId":85027,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Bahrain Medical Society = Majallat Jam'iyat al-Atibba' al-Bahrayniyah","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69074093","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}

Patient’s (sex, age) clinical data (diagnosis, reasons of treatment, number of stainlesssteel crowns (SSCs) used, extracted teeth, endodontic treatment, fluoride applications and prophylaxis treatment, postoperative complications were collected. Results: Two hundred and sixty patients were treated under GA due to their uncooperative behavior, 13 patient were medically compromised, and 7 patients were elective patients. All patients were discharged on the same day, with no complications, excluding 4 patients, who reported within two of months follow-up with pain. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, it is important to educate parents on oral hygiene and caries preventions in order to minimize future failures and the need to repeat the GA, for their children. Oral rehabilitations under GA may be required for the treatment of non-compliant patients. Treatment under GA is safe and effective in providing dental care for non-compliant and medically complex patients.","PeriodicalId":85027,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Bahrain Medical Society = Majallat Jam'iyat al-Atibba' al-Bahrayniyah","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69074046","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}
