ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the current status of job burnout among trainees in the standardized residency training of pediatrics (short for "pediatric residents") in the hope of identifying the problems involved, and proposing corresponding countermeasures and suggestions based on these current situations and problems.Methods:This study conducted a questionnaire survey among the pediatric residents who received the standardized residency training in The Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. The questionnaire consisted of two parts: general information survey and Maslach job burnout survey. The generated data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 26.0. Chi-square test was used to determine the equilibrium of the groupings for the basic situation of the data. If the normal distribution of the data in two groups was satisfactory, the t-test was used for inter-group comparison; otherwise, the Kruskal-Wallis H test was employed. For more than two groups, if the data met the normal distribution and the variance was homogeneous, one-way analysis of variance was used for inter-group comparison; otherwise, the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used. Multiple linear regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis. Results:A total of 138 pediatric residents participated in this survey. The detection rate of job burnout was 65.2% (90/138), of which 45 (32.6%), 29 (21.0%) and 16 (11.6%) were mild, moderate and severe, respectively. In univariate analysis, there was a statistically significant difference in job burnout among pediatric residents in different grades ( H=7.22, P=0.027), and the low achievement score (27.90±8.48) of the first-year pediatric residents was higher than that of the second-year pediatric residents (23.54±6.79), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.25, P=0.025). Multiple linear regression analysis regression model showed no statistically significant difference. Conclusion:The level of job burnout among pediatric residents is high, and relevant departments should pay attention to the problem of job burnout of the pediatric residents, and take various measures to prevent the occurrence of job burnout.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: A teacher is a person who educates others and is considered a role model to transmit the value of life. School is considered an important setting for comprehensive health promotion. Teachers can act as a bridge to pass health information and behaviour that they learn to students, families, and Communities. The major pivot in the present study is to assess the teacher’s trainees about health knowledge, attitude, and practices during their training course. Objectives: To assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice of health-related topics in teacher’s training course Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in the B Ed and D Ed colleges of field practice area with a sample size was 150. It was a questionnaire-based study. Information was collected based on the interview method. Results: Knowledge and practice were better in B Ed trainees. The attitude of the trainees is nearly equal. Conclusions: The disparity is majorly based on their previous educational status. Those who have opted for B Ed have passed degrees like B.SC or B.A and trainees doing D Ed have joined immediately after the completion of their 12th standard. Hence, their knowledge of health-related topics is limited compared to B Ed trainees

ABSTRACT
Background: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is a rapidly spreading pandemic. Under the Ayushman Bharat Scheme of Govt. of India, community health officer (CHO) trainees undergo 6 months of training to provide comprehensive primary health care to the patients attending health wellness centers. Aims and Objectives: This study was conducted to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAPs) about COVID-19 among CHO trainees in Maharashtra. The relation between sociodemographic factors of CHO trainees and their KAPs was also studied. Materials and Methods: An online study was conducted during September 15, 2020 to October 15, 2020 among CHO trainees of the March 2020 batch undergoing training under health wellness program study centers in Maharashtra using a prevalidated questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0. Results: One hundred and sixty CHO trainees participated in this study. The majority of respondents (98 [61.3%]) were females with a mean age of 27.86 years (SD 4.862) and (range 20–43 years). Seventy-five (46.8%) respondents were ayurvedic doctors, whereas 85 (53.2%) were nursing graduates. Overall, 159 (98.76%) had sufficient knowledge, 126 (78.26%) had a positive attitude, and 65 (40.37%) had fair practices toward COVID-19. Age >30 years was associated with good knowledge. CHO trainees with age ? 30 years and using social media to access information on COVID-19 were having a good attitude. CHO trainees with age ? 30 years, working in the civil hospital and those with Bachelor of Ayurveda, Medicine, and Surgery (BAMS) degrees were significantly (P < 0.05) more likely to have fair practices. Conclusion: Studies involving CHO training centers all over India should be conducted.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Introducción: Los practicantes preprofesionales de la salud también fueron afectados mentalmente por la COVID-19. Objetivos: Determinar los factores asociados a tener más preocupación y miedo durante la COVID-19 en practicantes preprofesionales de la salud peruanos. Métodos: Estudio transversal con métodos analíticos; participaron 285 estudiantes de diferentes carreras de la salud del sur del Perú; les fueron aplicados 2 test validados localmente, a los resultados se les cruzó con diversas variables socio-educativas. Resultados: Las principales preocupaciones fueron: no podían evitar preocuparse a pesar de las medidas tomadas, incertidumbre por ser una enfermedad impredecible, que su centro laboral tiene muchos riesgos y la percepción de que su capacidad laboral fuera afectada por ser contagiado. Los principales miedos fueron: percepción de que el corazón se aceleraba o que las manos le suden. Quienes se encontraban en algún establecimiento I-3 (sin internamiento) tenían menos preocupación que los de otros (RPa: 0,56; IC 95 %: 0,43-0,72; valor p< 0,001), ajustado por el sexo y la carrera de estudios. A mayor edad había más miedo (RPa: 1,76; IC 95 %: 1,46-2,11; valor p< 0,001), ajustado por 4 variables. Conclusiones: Los practicantes evidenciaron preocupación en relación a lo impredecible que es la enfermedad, riesgos laborales y el poder ser contagiado; además, miedo que causó una aceleración cardiaca muy fuerte y sudor en las manos. Asociado a la preocupación estuvo el nivel del establecimiento de la salud en donde laboraban y asociado al miedo, la edad de los encuestados.
ABSTRACT Introduction: Preprofessional health care practitioners were also mentally affected by COVID-19. Objectives: To determine the factors associated with having more worry and fear during COVID-19 in Peruvian pre-professional health care practitioners. Methods: Cross-sectional study with analytical methods, with the participation of 285 students from different health careers in southern Peru, to whom 2 locally validated tests were applied and crossed with different socio-educational variables. Results: The main concerns were that they could not help worrying despite the measures taken, the uncertainty of being an unpredictable disease, the fact that their workplace has many risks and the perception that their ability to work would be affected by being infected. The main fears were the perception that their heart was racing or that their hands were sweating. Those who were in an I-3 facility (without hospitalization) were less worried than those in other facilities (RPa: 0.56; 95 % CI: 0.43-0.72; p-value< 0.001), adjusted for sex and educational career. In addition, the older the age, the more fear (RPa: 1.76; 95 % CI: 1.46-2.11; p-value< 0.001), adjusted for 4 variables. Conclusions: The practitioners showed concern in relation to the unpredictability of the disease, occupational hazards and the fact that they could be infected; in addition, fear that caused a very strong cardiac acceleration and sweating in the hands. Associated with the concern was the level of the health facility where they worked. Associated with fear was the age of the respondents.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To survey the training needs for chronic diseases among family health care workers in Beijing.Methods:A questionnaire survey on training needs for chronic disease was conducted from September to November 2018 among 820 family health care workers from 15 community health service centers in Beijing selected by stratified random sampling. The questionnaire consisted of demographic information and training needs related to chronic diseases. The training needs included: the knowledge and skills related to chronic diseases: the types of chronic diseases expected to learn, the basic knowledge of chronic diseases (7 items), preventive health care knowledge (7 items), nursing and rehabilitation skills (9 items); the duration, frequency, method, time and location of training arrangement.Results:The survey showed that chronic disease that family health care workers most wanted to learn was hypertension (90.3%, 717/794); among the basic knowledge of chronic diseases, the highest need was disease risk factor (65.5%, 520/794); among the knowledge of preventive health care, the highest need was home safety protection (87.3%, 693/794); among nursing and rehabilitation skills, the highest need was blood glucose measurement (83.1%, 660/794). The female respondents had higher training need for basic knowledge of chronic diseases than males ( Z=2.51, P=0.012). There were significant differences in the needs for preventive health care knowledge among respondents of different gender ( Z=2.72, P=0.007), occupation ( H=15.02, P=0.001) and educational level ( H=12.01, P=0.002). Respondents with different age ( H=6.49, P=0.039), occupation ( H=52.93, P<0.001) and educational level ( H=9.56, P=0.008)) had different needs for nursing and rehabilitation skills. Among the respondents, 58.2% (462/794) indicated that duration of each course should be 30-59 min, 34.0% (270/794) wanted to participate in the training once a month, 53.1% (422/794) wanted to participate in the training in the form of large class, 39.2% (311/794) were willing to participate in the training on working days and 48.7% (387/794) wanted to be trained in community health service institutions. Conclusions:There are diverse training needs of family health care workers. Attention should be paid to the implementation of need-oriented training. It is crucial to promote the motivation of family health care workers to participate in the training, which can improve the training effect and facilitate their role in family health management.
ABSTRACT
Purpose The number of Vietnamese technical intern trainees is increasing annually due to the revision of the Immigration Control Law in Japan. However, there are few studies focusing on the trainees’ health issues and medical consultations. This study aims to clarify the difficulties they face in obtaining healthcare services after coming to Japan.Method Semi-structured interviews regarding the difficulties faced by trainees in accessing medical services were conducted. Twelve Vietnamese technical intern trainees (eight men [66.6%] and four women [33.4%] with an average age of 26.3 years and average stay period of 2 years and 3 months) living in the Kansai area were interviewed. Data analysis was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method.Results and Discussion Four categories of difficulties in receiving medical treatment were found: “no hospital visits unless the situation worsens,” “inability to receive medical services without the support of company or supervising organization officials,” “inability to seek confirmation even if they have questions or are dissatisfied,” and “hesitation for seeking medical help due to work and scheduling.” For Vietnamese technical intern trainees, the company or supervising organization officials’ support played an important role in accessing medical services. Moreover, even if the trainees had doubts or dissatisfactions, they were unable to ask questions and receive confirmation. Therefore, it is necessary not only to actively explain the need for medical services to the company or supervising organization officials but also to ask the trainees if they have any doubts.Conclusion The company and supervising organization official’s support played an important role at accessing medical service. It will be essential to cooperate not only with them but also with the occupational health field and regional medical institutions.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Cross-sectional research has shown that clinical psychology trainees usually face a wide range of stressors related to the clinical practice and tend to present higher distress than other psychology students. However, to our knowledge, no longitudinal study has been conducted analyzing this fact. Specifically, this study analyses the evolution of emotional symptoms among a group of novice clinical psychology trainees compared with a control cohort. We recruited 575 Colombian Psychology undergraduates: 52.9% were in the semester in which they began their clinical practice, and 47.1% were attending a regular semester. At the beginning of the semester (T1), participants responded to measures of emotional symptoms (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale - 21, DASS-21; General Health Questionnaire - 12, GHQ-12). Approximately two months later (T2), participants responded to the DASS-21 and GHQ-12. The two groups did not differ in their scores on the DASS-21 and the GHQ-12 at T1. Bayesian repeated-measures ANOVA showed that clinical psychology trainees showed higher increases in scores on the DASS-Total, DASS-Depression, and DASS-Stress than participants attending a regular semester. This is the first study that shows clinical psychology trainees experiencing a higher increase in emotional symptoms compared with a control cohort.
Resumen La investigación transversal ha mostrado que los practicantes de psicología clínica suelen enfrentar un amplio rango de estresores relacionados con la práctica clínica y tienden a presentar mayor grado de malestar emocional que otros estudiantes de psicología. Sin embargo, ningún estudio longitudinal ha analizado este hecho. Este artículo analiza la evolución de los síntomas emocionales entre un grupo de practicantes en psicología clínica novatos comparados con una cohorte control. Se reclutaron 575 estudiantes de Psicología colombianos: 52.9% comenzaban su práctica clínica y 47.1% cursaban un semestre normal. Al inicio del semestre (T1), los participantes respondieron a medidas de síntomas emocionales (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21, DASS-21; General Health Questionnaire-12, GHQ-12). Aproximadamente dos meses después (T2), respondieron al DASS-21 y GHQ-12. Los dos grupos no difirieron en las puntuaciones del DASS-21 y GHQ-12 en el T1. Los ANOVA de medidas repetidas Bayesianos mostraron que los practicantes incrementaron sus puntuaciones en el DASS-Total, DASS-Depresión y DASS-Estrés más que los participantes que asistían a un semestre normal. Este es el primer estudio que muestra que los practicantes de psicología clínica experimentan un mayor incremento de síntomas emocionales que los de una cohorte control.

Background: It is recognized that the health of physiciansdirectly impacts the health of the larger population, asnumerous studies have established a link between the healthbehaviors of physicians and their interactions with patients.Objectives: To assess physical activity practice among thefamily medicine trainees in Makkah AlMukarramah and itsassociation with various socio-demographic as well as toidentify the main barriers of being physically active from theparticipants’ prospective.Methods: A cross-sectional study was implemented includedall family medicine trainees in Makkah AlMukarramah. Selfadministered questionnaire was used for data collection. Itconsisted of three parts: The first part contains questions aboutsocio-demographic characteristics of the participants. Thesecond part inquired about participants` physical activity. Theshort form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire(IPAQ) that provide common instrument to estimate the level ofphysical activity has been utilized in this regard. The third partof the questionnaire inquires about barriers for being physicallyactive (12 items) as well as reasons for being physically active(7 items).Results: The study included 60 family medicine trainees with aresponse rate of 98.4%. Their age ranged between 25 and 35years with a mean of 28.17 years and standard deviation of2.38 years. More than half of them (55%) were females. Mostof them (71.7%) were married. All were Saudis. According tothe he short form of the International Physical ActivityQuestionnaire (IPAQ), almost half (48.3%) of family medicinetrainees had low level of physical activity whereas 40% hadmoderate level of physical activity. Only 11.7% of themreported high level of physical activity. Regarding durationof sitting (minutes/day), slightly less than half of the familymedicine trainees (48.3%) reported sitting period more than360 minutes/day. High level of physical activity was reportedamong 14.8% of male family medicine trainees compared to9.1% of females. In addition, moderate level of physicalactivity was higher reported among males than females (59.3%versus 24.2%). This difference was statistically significant,p=0.007. Lack of time to exercise because of academic andwork responsibilities, less suitable places to exerciseparticularly, no exercise facilities at home and having otherrecreational activities to do with friends were the commonestreported barriers for being physically active.Conclusions: Almost half of family medicine trainees inMakkah had low level of physical activity. Males had significanthigher level of physical activity than females. Overcoming thebarriers together with consideration of family medicine trainees’suggestions may contribute to a further increase in the level ofphysical activity among them.
ABSTRACT
Purpose: To evaluate the difficulty perceived of each step of phacoemulsification and analyze the factors affecting them. Methods: Overall, 12 trainee residents were allotted 10 cases of phacoemulsification of eyes with senile cataract, under a single observer, and the steps of each surgery were rated from very easy to very difficult with a questionnaire. The completion rates of steps and complications of each surgery were noted. Principal component analysis of the responses to the difficulty level questionnaire was conducted to obtain factors resulting in the perceived difficulty. Results: The lowest difficulty scores were for initial step of incision creation (1.63 � 0.84), followed by intraocular lens insertion (2.51 � 0.8). The most difficult step was divide/chop of the nucleus (3.74 � 0.97) followed by phacoemulsification (3.32 � 0.82). Highest completion rates were seen for the initial steps of the surgery and the lowest for divide/chop. We identified two major patterns of difficulty among the trainees � one for steps involving high amount of binocularity and the other, for steps involving high precision of hand control. The rate of complication of our study was within acceptable range. Conclusion: Although trainees have practiced phacoemulsification steps on simulation, real-life situation may bring in unprecedented level of difficulty and challenges, which may be documented and used for targeted improvement of surgical skills. Stereopsis and hand control training should form a major part of training modules of cataract surgery both on simulation and real-life scenarios.
ABSTRACT
Introduction The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors related to the mental health of technical intern trainees from the Philippines in Japan, which focus on the relationship between their acculturation strategies and mental health.Method Mental health, acculturation strategies, acculturative stress, job stress, social support and demographic factors including Japanese language proficiency were used for the variables in the English version of self-administered questionnaire. A total of 180 (115 men, 47 women and 16 gender unreported) Filipino technical intern trainees participated in this study. The data of 132 (95 men, 37 women) participants who completely answered the questionnaires were analyzed.Results Results showed that gender, marital status, existence of children, Japanese language proficiency, acculturation strategies and acculturative stress were significantly related to the mental health of Filipino technical intern trainees. Results also showed that social support was significantly related to Japanese language proficiency and acculturation strategies for acquisition of Japanese culture. Conclusions Findings suggest that factors contributing to the worsening of mental health of Filipino technical intern trainees are (a) being male, (b) existence of a child/children, (c) single marital status, (d) low Japanese language proficiency, (e) low acquisition of Japanese culture, and (f) high acculturative stress. Findings also suggest low levels of social support are risk factors related to low Japanese language proficiency and low acquisition of Japanese culture. Support programs for improvement in Japanese language skill and familiarizing with Japanese culture may be an effective way to maintain positive mental health in Filipino technical intern trainees. In addition, an establishment of environment to be able to easily and adequately receive psychological support from their family members living in the Philippines may be important to their mental well-being.

ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss whether the content and method of pre-job training meet the need of medical trainees and to give some advice on its reformation. Methods 350 trainees enrolled by The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University attended the two-day standardized pre-job training in September, 2016. The self-designed satisfaction questionnaires on contents and method of pre-job training were distributed to all trainees after training, and then the statistical analysis was completed by SPSS 11.0 software. The satisfaction rate higher than80% was deemed as satisfactory, and the satisfaction rate lower than80% was regarded as unsatisfactory. Results 350 questionnaires were distributed in total, with 335 valid responses returned.. The result showed that the number of trainees who were satisfied with the training contents of medical law and rules and regulations, writing norms of medical documents, infection control, medical information technology, medical insurance policy, fire control and personal security and the use of library resources were 321(95.82%), 318(94.93%), 310(92.54%), 302(90.15%), 251(74.93%), 234(69.85%) and 220 (65.67% ) respectively. There were 254 (75.82% ) trainees who were satisfied with the training methods. Conclusions All medical trainees were satisfied with most contents of current pre-job training. However, the trainings on the extension of clinical expertise and the improvement of clinical skills should be added. Almost all trainees were dissatisfied with the training method, which should be diversified. Fur-ther improvement on contents and methods for current pre-job training will be conducive to enhancing the quality of medical trainees.
ABSTRACT
Objective To survey the quantity of clinical practice of medical trainees in practice,analyze the status characteristics and main problems,and put preference for practice teaching administrative departments.Methods In June 2016,all students finishing internship in some military medical university were gathered and surveyed by the person in charge.Using self-made questionnaires,the students were asked to anonymously fill out the quantity of clinical practice by themselves respectively in different department and in various capacities.515 questionnaires were provided and 479 valid results were collected (93.0％).Using SPSS 16.0,the number of trainees in different genders,specialties and categories was analyzed by variance analysis and SNK test (22 comparison).Results The numbers of clinical practice as first assistants and second assistants in surgical medicine were the most,which were 5.70 and 5.29 in average,while those in specialty medicine were the least (al1＜2.85 in various capacities).The quantity of clinical practice in different specialties and sorts as second assistants in intemal medicine showed statistical significance (F=2.646,F=2.682;P=0.008,P=0.031) and SNK test showed that those in navy general practice medicine (5.81) and soldiers (4.59) operated more.The quantity of clinical practice in different specialties and sorts as first assistants in special medicine showed statistical significance (F=2.166,F=2.765;P=0.029,P=0.027) and SNK test showed that those specialties in pharmacy (3.33) and clinical medicine (3.22) and soldiers (3.03) operated more.Conclusion The quantity of clinical practice of medical trainees has characteristics with surgical medicine most and there is no links with genders.In the departments with more opportunities,the differences among different groups are not obvious,while in the less operating departments,the students with higher motivations operate more.Therefore,these departments should focus on mobilizing the enthusiasm of students.Besides,the quantity of clinical practice in medical trainees should be looked upon objectively and the operations should be done under the guide of the teachers and on the basis of considering the security of patients.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Transfusion is one of the most important treatments in patient care. It has been known that there is a lack of transfusion medicine knowledge of doctors in other countries, however it has not been investigated yet in Korea. In this study, we assessed the educational need and the knowledge on transfusion medicine for trainees to provide basic raw data for future education in transfusion medicine. METHODS: Transfusion is one of the most important treatments in patient care. It has been known that there is a lack of transfusion medicine knowledge of doctors in other countries, however it has not been investigated yet in Korea. In this study, we assessed the educational need and the knowledge on transfusion medicine for trainees to provide basic raw data for future education in transfusion medicine. RESULTS: Among trainees, 89.9% said they received more than one hour of transfusion medicine education at medical schools, but 57.3% did not receive transfusion medicine education after finishing medical school. Moreover, 76.4% and 86.5% of respondents stated that additional transfusion medicine education was needed during and after medical school respectively. Among respondents, 43.5%, 53.9%, and 28.1% reported their knowledge on blood products, pretransfusion testing, and transfusion reactions as low or very low. In the assessment of knowledge of transfusion medicine, the mean percentage of correct answers was 65.2%. The rates of correct answers (average) ranged from 25.8% to 80.9% (58.2%), 49.4% to 94.4% (75.7%) 70.8% to 89.9% (80.2%) in case of blood products, pretransfusion testing, and transfusion reactions respectively. CONCLUSION: Transfusion medicine education among trainees after finishing medical school was found to be insufficient, and additional education for transfusion medicine is demanded by trainees.

Objetivo identificar e discutir situações de trabalho relatadas por adolescentes trabalhadores que pudessem se constituir como violência psicológica no trabalho. Métodos foram realizadas entrevistas individuais semiestruturadas com 30 jovens trabalhadores entre 15 e 20 anos de idade. As informações foram analisadas a partir da análise hermenêutico-dialética. Resultados em geral, os participantes perceberam os “relacionamentos interpessoais” no trabalho como bons, mas relataram inúmeras situações de “mal-estar no trabalho” que incluíram humilhações, abusos de poder, constrangimentos e assédio sexual, revelando ocorrências de violência psicológica no trabalho. Os jovens mais empoderados e autônomos conseguiram enfrentar com mais firmeza as situações abusivas, fossem elas por parte de colegas de trabalho ou de superiores hierárquicos. Conclusão os adolescentes ingressantes no mundo do trabalho estão expostos a situações que ameaçam a saúde mental e se valem, sobretudo, do apoio social como estratégia de enfrentamento. Sugere-se a inclusão de temas de Saúde Mental e Trabalho, não só em organizações de educação para o trabalho, mas também no ensino médio regular, como contribuição ao preparo dos adolescentes e para que possam identificar e desenvolver estratégias de enfrentamento à violência psicológica. .
Objective to identify and discuss work conditions reported by young workers which could be constituted as psychological violence at work. Methods semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with thirty adolescent workers aged 15 to 20 years old. The data were analyzed using the hermeneutic-dialectic method. Results overall, participants perceived the "interpersonal relationships" at work as good, but they reported many situations of "malaise at work", which included humiliation, power abuse, embarrassment and sexual harassment, revealing occurrences of psychological violence at work. Youngsters who were more empowered and autonomous were able to deal more firmly with abusive situations, whether they were produced by coworkers or superiors. Conclusion adolescents entering the labor market are exposed to work conditions that can be harmful to their mental health, and social support is mainly their coping strategy. The mental health and work theme should be included in professional training and high school years as a way to contribute to the better preparedness of teenage workers, so that they could identify and develop coping strategies to deal with psychological violence. .
