Occupational stress and coping strategies of nursing staff in times of Covid-19

Introduction: The increase in the workload of health professionals and the degree of complexity of patients, attribute greater risk to psychosocial stress. Objective: To evaluate the associations between occupational stress, quality of life at work, and coping strategies by the hospital nursing team during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Cross sectional, quantitative study with convenience sampling, data collection from August to December 2020; in two units of the private hospital network, with sociodemographic, occupational and health questionnaires; visual analogue scale for assessing quality of life at work; Demand-Control-Support (DCS); Occupational Coping Scale. Results: The total sample consisted of 196 nursing professionals. There was significant certainty (negative, however, the dimension "Demand" of the DCS and QWL (<0.001, r=-0.367). Control over work-related work has a significant quality (but the "Control" dimension of the DCS and QWL (=0.025, r=0.160); and significantly negative, however, between the "Social Support" dimension of DCS and "Negative Equivalence" of Coping (p=0.003, r=-0.2013). Conclusion: The findings of this study allowed the correlation between occupational stress, coping and quality of life at work, showing that the lower the social support, the greater the use of avoidance strategies and consequently decline in quality of life at work. They also allowed us to identify the coping strategies used by the nursing staff and quality of life at work in the face of occupational stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Availability of resources for paediatric hearing care in a South African province

Background: Unavailability of healthcare resources can lead to poor patient outcomes. The latter is true for infants with hearing loss and require early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI). Aim: To determine the availability and distribution of resources for EHDI in state hospitals in the Eastern Cape (EC) province, South Africa. Setting: Sixteen state hospitals (nine district, four regional and three tertiary hospitals). Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional survey completed between July 2022 and October 2022. Results: Thirteen hospitals had audiologists (n = 4) or speech therapists and audiologists (n = 9). Specific to equipment, 10 hospitals had a screening otoacoustic emissions or automated auditory brainstem response, 8 hospitals had diagnostic middle ear analysers and only 3 hospitals had diagnostic auditory brainstem response and/or auditory steady state response. Twelve hospitals did not have visual response audiometry (VRA) and 94% had no hearing aid verification systems. Budget allocations were uneven, with only 10 hospitals, i.e., 4 districts, all regional and 2 tertiary hospitals being allocated varying amounts. Subsequently, only 50% provided newborn hearing screening, 56% provided diagnostic evaluations and 14 hospitals fitted hearing aids. Conclusion: Results revealed a limited and uneven distribution of resources, which negatively impacted the provision of EHDI. Even distribution of healthcare resources and further research aimed at strengthening hearing health services is recommended as these could potentially improve equitable access to EHDI and the overall quality of healthcare provided. Contribution: This study highlights the need for even distribution of resources and strengthening of health systems, especially in the dawn of the National Health Insurance.

Dénutrition chez les patients en postopératoire de chirurgie digestive dans deux hôpitaux publics au Bénin en 2022 / Undernutrition in postoperative digestive surgery patients in two public hospitals in Benin in 2022

Objectif : Déterminer la fréquence et les facteurs associés à la dénutrition en postopératoire dans deux hôpitaux universitaires publics au Bénin. Méthode : Il s'agissait d'une étude observationnelle transversale descriptive et analytique, qui s'est déroulée de mai à juillet 2022. Un recrutement exhaustif des patients devant être pris en charge chirurgicalement pour une pathologie digestive et ayant consenti à l'étude, a été effectué. Des données anthropométriques et de consommation alimentaire, des données cliniques ont été recueillies grâce à un questionnaire standardisé. Résultats : Un total de 51 patients a été inclus, avec une prédominance d'adultes âgés de moins de 50 ans (70,6%), un sex-ratio de 0,9 ; 72,5% avait un niveau d'instruction ≥ secondaire, 60,8% vivait en couple. Le niveau de revenu était inférieur au salaire minimum interprofessionnel garanti (SMIG) dans 52,9% des cas. La fréquence de la dénutrition était de 29,4% à l'admission contre 54% en postopératoire. Seuls les patients dénutris avaient présenté des complications postopératoires (36%). L'évaluation de l'état nutritionnel n'avait été consignée dans aucun des dossiers médicaux. En analyse multivariée, l'insuffisance en apport protéique et un bas niveau de revenu étaient associées à la dénutrition postopératoire (p = 0,002). Conclusion : La dénutrition en chirurgie digestive est une réalité dans les hôpitaux publics du Bénin et constitue un facteur de risque de complications postopératoires. Son dépistage et sa prise en charge doivent être systématiques et consignés dans le dossier médical du malade

Objective: To determine the frequency and factors associated with postoperative undernutrition in two public teaching hospitals in Benin. Method: This was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional observational study conducted from May to July 2022. An exhaustive recruitment of patients to be managed surgically for a digestive pathology and who consented to the study, was carried out. Anthropometric, food consumption and clinical data were collected using a standardized questionnaire. Results: A total of 51 patients were included, with a predominance of adults under 50 years of age (70.6%), a sex ratio of 0.9; 72.5% had an educational level ≥ secondary, 60.8% were living as a couple. Income was below the guaranteed minimum wage in 52.9% of cases. The incidence of undernutrition was 29.4% on admission, compared with 54% postoperatively. Only the undernourished patients (36%) presented postoperative complications. Assessment of nutritional status was not recorded in any of the medical register. In multivariate analysis, insufficient protein intake and low income were associated with postoperative undernutrition. Conclusion: Undernutrition in digestive surgery is a reality in public hospitals in Benin, and constitutes a risk factor for postoperative complications. Its detection and management must be systematic and recorded in the patient's medical register.

The Practice of Cross-Cultural Medical Services in the United States and Its Enlightenment to China / 中国医学伦理学

This paper collected and sorted out the cross-cultural medical practice in the top 20 US hospitals in 2019-2020 through web surveys, and summarized the concepts, featured projects and models of cross-cultural medical services in American hospitals. Generally, hospitals in the US advocate the service concept of "patient-centered", provide full-process services before, during and after the treatment, involving appointments, accommodation, transportation, language translation, medical process management, etc., and attach great importance to the role of culture factors in medical treatment and cross-cultural medical education and training for employees. On this basis, it is proposed that Chinese medical institutions should focus on the following aspects in the development of foreign-related medical services: conform to international medical service concepts and standards, improve the cross-cultural medical competence of medical staff and other groups, explore cross-cultural medical service models with localized characteristics, and build the international image of the hospital with the construction of international environment.

The Empirical Study on the Construction of Ethics Committee in Municipal Hospitals in Shanxi Province / 中国医学伦理学

To analyze the main factors influencing the ethical review work of municipal hospitals in Shanxi Province by investigating the current situation of the construction and operation of ethics committees, and to put forward reasonable suggestions for improving the work of ethics committees. Questionnaire surveys and interviews were used to investigate the composition of ethics committees, systems and standard operating procedures, personnel training, review project methods, time limits, etc. of 24 hospitals at municipal levels in Shanxi Province. The establishment and system of ethics committees in tertiary hospitals at prefecture and city level were basically reasonable, and they could actively play the role of ethics committees. At present, most hospitals do not pay enough attention to the work of ethics committees, lack of full-time staff and systematic training, resulting in insufficient ethics review capabilities. The construction of the ethics committee of the second-level hospital is a mere formality, and no substantive work has been carried out. It is recommended to strengthen the supervision, increase the training of ethics committees and researchers, improve the information management of ethics committees, and establish regional ethics committees to further improve the ability and efficiency of ethics review.

Teleconsultation at a public ophthalmic teaching hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic / Teleconsulta em um hospital público de ensino oftalmológico durante a pandemia do COVID-19

ABSTRACT Purpose: To analyze teleconsultation at a public ophthalmic teaching hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. Methods: Medical records of patients who requested ophthalmological teleconsultation between June 2020 and March 2021 were reviewed. The main outcomes included demographic data, eye disease symptoms, hypothesized diagnosis, and management. Moreover, the results of a satisfaction survey administered after the consultation were analyzed. Results: Medical records of a total of 161 patients were reviewed. The mean age was 45.98 ± 17.57 (8-90) years, and most were women (113, 70.20%). Only 57 (35.60%) of the patients had made previous follow-up visits to the hospital. The most frequent reason for consultation was the need for a new eyeglass prescription (73, 45.34%), followed by dry eye symptoms (16, 9.93%) and pterygium (13, 8.07%). Other reasons were the monitoring of previously diagnosed eye diseases, such as glaucoma, retinopathies, strabismus, and keratoconus. Regarding the satisfaction survey, 151 (93.78%) patients answered the online questionnaire. Most reported that they were satisfied with the teleconsultation (94.03%) and would participate in a future teleconsultation (90.06%). Conclusion: Teleconsultation could be widely used to assist patients in public ophthalmology healthcare and teaching hospitals. Even though new eyeglass prescriptions are a frequent reason for ophthalmological appointments, patients tend to be satisfied with teleconsultation, as it also provides guidance.

A síndrome pós-COVID-19 é um termo usado para descrever um conjunto diversificado de sintomas que persistem por mais de 12 semanas da infecção diagnosticada. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a síndrome pós-COVID-19 entre hospitalizados por COVID-19 após 6 e 12 meses da alta hospitalar. Trata-se de estudo de coorte ambidirecional, realizado com indivíduos que receberam alta em três dos principais hospitais da capital de Mato Grosso, Brasil, entre outubro e dezembro de 2021 e janeiro e março de 2022. Após coleta de dados em prontuários, os indivíduos foram entrevistados por telefone após 6 e 12 meses da alta hospitalar, sendo questionados sobre a presença de sintomas persistentes ou novos, para a avaliação de sua frequência segundo características sociodemográficas, econômicas, relativas à internação e condições de saúde. Dos 277 prontuários avaliados, 259 pacientes foram elegíveis para o estudo, 190 aos seis meses e 160 após 12 meses da alta hospitalar. Aos seis meses, 59% eram mulheres, 40% com 60 anos ou mais de idade e 87,4% referiram a presença de pelo menos um sintoma. Aos 12 meses, 58,7% eram mulheres, 37,5% com 30 a 49 anos e 67,5% referiram a presença de pelo menos um sintoma.

Tras recolectar los datos en registros médicos, se entrevistaron los individuos por teléfono tras 6 y 12 meses del alta hospitalaria, cuestionándoles sobre la presencia de síntomas persistentes o nuevos y evaluando su frecuencia conforme las características sociodemográficas, económicas, relacionadas con la hospitalización y condiciones de salud. De los 277 registros médicos evaluados, se eligieron 259 pacientes para el estudio, 190 a los 6 meses y 160 tras 12 meses del alta hospitalaria. A los 6 meses, el 59% eran mujeres, el 40% tenían 60 años o más y el 87,4% refirieron la presencia de al menos un síntoma. A los 12 meses, el 58,7% eran mujeres, el 37,5% tenían entre 30 y 49 años y el 67,5% refirieron la presencia de al menos un síntoma. La fatiga fue el síntoma más común tras 6 y 12 meses del alta hospitalaria (el 55,3% y el 40,6%, respectivamente), seguido de los problemas de memoria (el 36,8% y el 20%) y caída del pelo (el 26,8% y el 11,2%). La prevalencia de síndrome post-COVID-19 fue más alta entre los individuos de mayor edad, menor renta, hipertensos, diabéticos y con mayor gravedad durante la hospitalización. Los factores de riesgo del síndrome post-COVID-19 contribuyen para la comprensión de los efectos a largo plazo y de la importancia del seguimiento tras la fase aguda de la enfermedad.

Post-COVID-19 syndrome involves a variety of symptoms that last more than 12 weeks after COVID diagnosis. This study aimed to analyze post-COVID-19 syndrome among hospitalized COVID-19 patients 6 and 12 months after hospital discharge. This is an ambidirectional cohort study conducted with individuals who were discharged from three main hospitals in the capital of Mato Grosso State, Brazil, between October and December 2021 and January and March 2022. After data collection from medical records, the individuals were interviewed by telephone 6 and 12 months after hospital discharge, when they were asked about the presence of ongoing or new symptoms and when symptom frequency was evaluated according to sociodemographic and economic characteristics hospitalization, and health conditions. Of all 277 medical records evaluated, 259 patients were eligible to participate in the study, 190 patients six months after discharge and 160 patients 12 months after hospital discharge. At six months, 59% were female patients, 40% were aged 60 years or older, and 87.4% reported at least one symptom. At 12 months, 58.7% were female patients, 37.5% were aged 30 to 49 years, and 67.5% reported at least one symptom. Fatigue was the most common symptom 6 and 12 months after hospital discharge (55.3% and 40.6%, respectively), followed by memory problems (36.8%; 20%), and hair loss (26.8%; 11.2%). The prevalence of post-COVID-19 syndrome was higher among patients of older age, lower income, with hypertension, diabetes, and more severe infection during hospitalization. The risk factors for post-COVID-19 syndrome help understand the long-term effects and the importance of monitoring after the acute phase of the disease.

Maxillofacial infections of dental origin: risk factors for hospital admission

Aim: to evaluate the occurrence of maxillofacial infection cases, which were treated at local hospital, identifying the main risk factors that determine the need for hospitalization of patients and the factors associated with staying length. Methods: A retrospective review of 191 records of patients with maxillofacial infection of odontogenic origin was performed, statistically evaluated by frequency and percentage of involvement, p values (based on the chi-square test) and odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Among all the 191 patients, 31 had some harmful habits, such as smokers (13%) and alcoholics (1%). In addition, 39 patients reported some general health problem, such as systemic arterial hypertension (8.3%), depression (6.8%), diabetes (3.6%) and some immunosuppression (1.57%). Involvement of infection in deep facial spaces was present, with 119 patients presenting a deeper infection (62.3%) and 72 patients a superficial infection (37.7%). The most prevalent clinical signs and symptoms in the initial evaluation were pain (91.1%) and edema (90.1%), followed by erythema/hyperemia (44.5%), trismus (37.7%), abscess (30.9%), cellulitis (27.7%), f istula (16.8%), fever (16.8%), dysphagia (11%), dehydration (9.9%), odynophagia (7.9% ) and dyspnea (3.7%). Pulp necrosis was considered a risk factor for treatment in a hospital environment (0.032) and root canal treatment decreases the risk of hospitalization (p=0.002). Considering the evaluated patients, 146 (76.4%) were admitted and 45 (37.7%) were not admitted for hospitalization after initial clinical evaluation. Conclusion: there is a high occurrence of maxillofacial infection cases of dental origin, considering that involvement of infection in deeper facial spaces, as well as presence of pain, edema, erythema/hyperemia, trismus, abscess, cellulitis and pulp necrosis, represent the main risk factors for hospitalization and staying length

Concordância da avaliação da via alimentar entre fonoaudiólogo e médico baseado na escala FOIS: coorte retrospectiva / Agreement in the assessment of the food pathway between speech therapists and physicians based on the FOIS scale: a retrospective cohort study / Concordancia en la evaluación de la vía alimentaria entre fonoaudiólogos y médicos basada en la escala FOIS: un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo

Introdução: A avaliação fonoaudiológica hospitalar tem um importante papel na prevenção e manejo de pacientes com risco de broncoaspiração. No entanto, nem sempre cabe ao fonoaudiólogo a primeira avaliação e definição da via alimentar nos pacientes hospitalares. Objetivo: Comparar as decisões fonoaudiológicas e médicas quanto à viabilidade da via alimentar em um hospital geral e identificar fatores associados com a melhora da deglutição. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo de pacientes internados em hospital em Joinville durante março a agosto de 2018. A via alimentar foi considerada com base na Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) sendo a primeira decisão comparada entre o fonoaudiólogo e o médico para o mesmo paciente. Resultados: Dos 171 pacientes, houve maior concordância entre as condutas médica e fonoaudiológica para alimentação por sonda nasoenteral (SNE) (88,7%) e alimentação oral livre (81,9%). No entanto, houve apenas 35% de concordância na definição de dieta adaptada, sendo a concordância geral moderada (Kappa 0,486). Houve evolução na alimentação por via oral em 62 pacientes (36%). Maior limitação da via alimentar, verificado pela necessidade de SNE (OR = 3,17; p = 0,025) e o maior número de atendimentos fonoaudiológicos intra-hospitalares (OR = 1,09; p = 0,020) foram associados com a melhora da disfagia. Conclusão: Encontrou-se concordância entre a avaliação dietética de casos para uso de SNE ou dieta livre entre o fonoaudiólogo e médico. Uso de SNE, como indicador de gravidade do paciente, e o maior número de sessões de fonoterapia foram associados com a melhora da disfagia durante a internação. (AU)

Introduction: Hospital-based speech-language pathology plays a crucial role in preventing and managing patients at risk of bronchoaspiration. However, the initial evaluation and determination of the feeding route in hospitalized patients may not always fall under the responsibility of the speech-language pathologist. Objective: To compare the decisions of speech-language pathologists and medical professionals regarding the feasibility of the feeding route in a general hospital and identify factors associated with swallowing improvement. Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients admitted to a hospital in Joinville from March to August 2018. The feeding route was assessed based on the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), with the initial decision compared between the speech-language pathologist and the physician for the same patient. Results: Among 171 patients, there was higher agreement between medical and speech-language pathology decisions for nasoenteral tube feeding (88.7%) and oral unrestricted intake (81.9%). However, there was only 35% agreement in defining an adapted diet, with overall moderate agreement (Kappa 0.486). Oral feeding improved in 62 patients (36%). The presence of nasoenteral tube feeding (OR = 3.17; p = 0.025) and a higher number of in-hospital speech-language pathology appointments (OR = 1.09; p = 0.020) were identified as independent predictors for dysphagia improvement. Conclusion: Concordance was found in the dietary assessment for the use of nasoenteral tube feeding or oral unrestricted intake between speech-language pathologists and physicians. The use of nasoenteral tube feeding as an indicator of patient severity and a higher number of speech-language pathology sessions were associated with dysphagia improvement during hospitalization.
