Abstract

Background: Infertility is an important problem that affects many couples worldwide. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) helps infertile couples to have offspring. One of the critical parts of ART is embryo transfer (ET). Objective: To compare the effect of transvaginal and transabdominal ultrasonographyguided ET on ART outcomes. Materials and Methods: In this randomized clinical trial study, 90 women who were candidates for in vitro fertilization (IVF) referred to Mahdiyeh hospital of Tehran, Iran during the yr 2020 were randomly divided into two groups (n = 45/each) of transvaginal and transabdominal ultrasonography-guided ET. The embryos were transferred twothree days after oocyte retrieval. The patient pain, duration and difficulty of the procedure, three-dimensional vision quality and successful pregnancy rate were measured. Results: In this study, 63.2% of the 45 women who underwent IVF under the guidance of the transvaginal guidance and 36.8% of the 45 women who underwent IVF under the transabdominal guidance had a successful pregnancy, which was not significantly different (p = 0.19). Also, based on other results there was no difference between the two groups in terms of patient pain (p = 0.53), duration (p ≥ 0.50), difficulty of procedures (p ≥ 0.50) and ultrasonography vision; however, the threedimensional vision quality in the transvaginal ultrasonography was better than that in the transabdominal ultrasonography (p <0.01). Conclusion: Overall, the ART outcomes in the transvaginal and transabdominal ultrasonography-guided ET were similar, so we suggest that physicians evaluate the patient's situation, the hospital equipment, and their ability before selecting the type of ultrasonography.

Abstract

Many hospital supply chains in the US follow a "stockless" structure, often implemented with the acquisition of new systems promising improved efficiencies and responsiveness. Despite vendor promises, supply chain gains from new technology are often unfulfilled or result in a reduction of performance. A critical component of achieving promised gains is the hospital's ability to accurately and consistently capture hospital inventory use. In practice, recording demand with perfect, 100% accuracy is infeasible, so our models condition on the level of accuracy in a particular hospital department, or point-of-use (POU) inventory location. Similar to previous literature, we consider actual net inventory and recorded net inventory in developing the system performance measures. We develop two models, optimizing either cost or service level, and we assume a periodic-review, base-stock (or par-level) inventory policy with full backordering. In addition to choosing the optimal order-up-to level, we seek the optimal frequency of inventory counts to reconcile inaccurate records. Results from both models provide insights for supply chain managers in the hospital setting, as well as hospital administrators considering the adoption of similar technologies or systems.

Abstract

Purpose: It is explanatory and descriptive research to explain the relationship among factors influencing the orthopedic physician's decision of purchasing medical devices and equipment. Methods: Quantitative method will be used in this study as all heads of departments in MOH hospitals refused to make one-to-one interviews and suggested only questionnaires that will be high in confidentiality. Results: For the first question: What is the ranking of factors that influence orthopedic physician decision in purchasing medical devices and equipment in MOH hospitals in Kuwait? According to HB analysis, the most preferred attribute is implant review in a journal and the lowest preferred factor is product training. Moreover, Brand was the second preferred attribute followed by leader influence. Surprisingly, price came after all these attributes. Physicians ranked technical support and sponsorship in the fifth and sixth places. For the second question: How can marketing and sales management predict orthopedic physicians' decisions before designing product proposals? This will assist M&S department in creating proposals that satisfy orthopedic physicians through expecting their decisions on various alternatives. Conclusion: There is a good opportunity for all medical devices companies, after discussion with SMEs, either for growth or leaving stagnation phase. However, SMEs have no real understanding of what factors matter to the orthopedic physicians' decision in purchasing medical devices and equipment. Thus, one of the goals of this research is to give M&S departments in medical devices companies with recommendations that will help them in forming attractive product offers to orthopedic physicians in MOH hospitals in Kuwait. Moreover, predicting the response from them in the future. In addition, four simulation scenarios have been conducted in this research to reach the best economic offer that maintains physicians attracted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The management level of medical equipment is an important index to evaluate the modernization degree of hospitals and it is also the basic element of medical and scientific research work, which plays a key role in the development of medical clinical science. Under the background of the rapid development of modern Internet of Things (IoT) technology, hospitals should be fully aware of the role of Internet of Things technology in hospital medical equipment management. With the increasing demand for refined management of medical equipment in hospitals, the application potential of the Internet of Things technology in medical equipment management has gradually become prominent. The management of medical equipment in a hospital is an important part of the management of the hospital, which is related to the medical level, service quality, and economic benefits of the hospital. In this paper, we have analyzed current problems in the management of medical equipment in hospitals, discussed the application of the Internet of Things technology in the management of medical equipment, and promoted the management of medical equipment to be more intelligent and automated. Experimental results have verified that the proposed scheme could be one of the trustworthy automated systems, preferably technology assisted, for the proper management of the medical equipment particularly in hospitals.

Abstract

Background: Hospital-based addiction care focuses on assessing and diagnosing substance use disorders, managing withdrawal, and initiating medications for addiction treatment. Hospital harm reduction is generally limited to prescribing naloxone. Hospitals can better serve individuals with substance use disorders by incorporating harm reduction education and equipment provision as essential addiction care. We describe the implementation of a hospital intervention that provides harm reduction education and equipment (e.g., syringes, pipes, and fentanyl test strips) to patients via an addiction consult team in an urban, safety-net hospital. Methods: We performed a needs assessment to determine patient harm reduction needs. We partnered with a community-based organization who provided us harm reduction equipment and training. We engaged executive, regulatory, and nursing leadership to obtain support. After ensuring regulatory compliance, training our team, and developing a workflow, we implemented this harm reduction program that provides education and equipment to individuals whose substance use goals do not include abstinence. Results: During a 12-month period we provided 195 individuals harm reduction kits. Conclusions: This intervention allowed us to advance hospital-based addiction care, better educate and engage patients, staff, and clinicians, and reduce stigma. By establishing a community harm reduction partner, obtaining support from hospital leadership, and incorporating feedback from staff, clinicians, and patients, we successfully implemented harm reduction education and equipment provision in a hospital setting as part of evidence-based addiction care. Trial registration: Commentary, none. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

This is a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive research, linked to the project of the Nucleus for the repair of pulmonary ventilators (NRVP). Objective: to report the experiences and reflections of a team of nursing teachers who work in the repair of pulmonary respirators. The reflections contributed to coping with COVID-19, its daily implications. Fostering the creation of a specific training course for the maintenance of hospital equipment is a necessity in force at this time of the pandemic and in the post-pandemic. The strategy developed for the repair and maintenance of pulmonary respirators, in coping with COVID-19 should be configured as a legacy of this period and as a social contribution of those involved in the process. In this way, we can say that the attitude of creating the repair nucleus was constituted as a social action, of volunteering and engagement of the participants that integrate the responses of the teaching and research institutions to the crisis of COVID-19 in Brazil.

Abstract

Background: Addiction treatment and harm reduction services reduce risks of death and re-infection among patients with injection drug use-associated infective endocarditis (IDU-IE), but these are not offered at many hospitals. Among hospitalized patients with IDU-IE at the two tertiary-care hospitals in the Canadian Maritimes, we aimed to identify (1) the availability of opioid agonist treatment (OAT) and sterile drug injecting equipment, and (2) indicators of potential unmet addiction care needs. Methods: Retrospective review of IDU-IE hospitalizations at Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre (Halifax, Nova Scotia) and the Saint John Regional Hospital (Saint John, New Brunswick), October 2015 -March 2017. In Halifax, there are no addiction medicine providers on staff; in Saint John, infectious diseases physicians also practice addiction medicine. Inclusion criteria were: (1) probable or definite IE as defined by the modified Duke criteria; and (2) injection drug use within the prior 3 months. Results: We identified 38 hospitalizations (21 in Halifax and 17 in Saint John), for 30 unique patients. Among patients with IDU-IE and untreated opioid use disorder, OAT was offered to 36% (5/14) of patients in Halifax and 100% (6/6) of patients in Saint John. Once it was offered, most patients at both sites initiated OAT and planned to continue it after discharge. In Halifax, no patients were offered sterile injecting equipment, and during five hospitalizations staff confiscated patients' own equipment. In Saint John, four patients were offered (and one was provided) injecting equipment in hospital, and during two hospitalizations staff confiscated patients' own equipment. Concerns regarding undertreated pain or opioid withdrawal were documented during 66% (25/38) of hospitalizations, and in-hospital illicit or non-medical drug use during 32% (12/38). Two patients at each site (11%; 4/38) had self-directed discharges against medical advice. Conclusions: Patients with IDU-IE in the Canadian Maritimes have unequal access to evidence-based addiction care depending on where they are hospitalized, which differs from the community-based standard of care. Indicators of potential unmet addiction care needs in hospital were common. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The manipulation of unsealed sources of radiation for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in the practice of nuclear medicine in Cuba represents a risk, from a radiological point of view, for occupationally exposed personnel linked to this activity. For this reason, the existence of a surveillance program that verifies that said risk is minimized, based on compliance with existing national regulations and observance of international recommendations, is essential. The basis of this program is the performance of an individual monitoring that allows to quantify the activity of the radionuclide incorporated by the exposed personnel, with the final objective of estimating its committed effective dose. In the case of Cuba, 131I is the radionuclide that poses the greatest risk from the point of view of incorporation, for which special attention has been devoted to it. Since 2011, the Internal Dosimetry Laboratory of the Center for Radiation Protection and Hygiene has developed various projects that include training, calibration of equipment in hospital institutions, risk assessment of incorporation at the national level and development of a radiological surveillance guide as basis for implementing the programs. The summit of all these efforts and the most effective way to verify its usefulness was the performance of an Intercomparison Exercise on Measured Thyroid Activity and Committed Effective Dose due to the Incorporation of 131I in the Nuclear Medicine Departments of the country. Three of the main institutions in which the afore-mentioned radionuclide is used participated in the exercise. The results obtained were satisfactory, demonstrating the existing progress on the subject and pointing out the areas where it is necessary to focus efforts to correct deficiencies.

Abstract

Self‐contamination during doffing of personal protective equipment (PPE) is a concern for healthcare workers (HCW) following SARS‐CoV‐2‐positive patient care. Staff may subconsciously become contaminated through improper glove removal; so, quantifying this exposure is critical for safe working procedures. HCW surface contact sequences on a respiratory ward were modeled using a discrete‐time Markov chain for: IV‐drip care, blood pressure monitoring, and doctors' rounds. Accretion of viral RNA on gloves during care was modeled using a stochastic recurrence relation. In the simulation, the HCW then doffed PPE and contaminated themselves in a fraction of cases based on increasing caseload. A parametric study was conducted to analyze the effect of: (1a) increasing patient numbers on the ward, (1b) the proportion of COVID‐19 cases, (2) the length of a shift, and (3) the probability of touching contaminated PPE. The driving factors for the exposure were surface contamination and the number of surface contacts. The results simulate generally low viral exposures in most of the scenarios considered including on 100% COVID‐19 positive wards, although this is where the highest self‐inoculated dose is likely to occur with median 0.0305 viruses (95% CI =0–0.6 viruses). Dose correlates highly with surface contamination showing that this can be a determining factor for the exposure. The infection risk resulting from the exposure is challenging to estimate, as it will be influenced by the factors such as virus variant and vaccination rates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

This work aims to present the results of the research that evidenced the commitment of militants of the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB), especially women, to promote the creation of Women's Unions in different neighborhoods of the city of Rio de Janeiro between 1945 and 1948. These were associations composed exclusively of women, based both in peripheral regions and in the central areas of the city, which were intended to mobilize housewives, domestic workers and other workers around their daily demands. The Women's Unions denounced the famine, organized the distribution of food and other goods requested by the affiliates, sought to build consumer cooperatives, put pressure on public bodies to achieve the construction of schools, hospitals and to improve the supply of neighborhoods. Furthermore, through women's unions, the PCB sought to involve the poor female masses in the electoral campaigns of the period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is considered a renaissance of the manufacturing industry. Its unique capability of manufacturing 3D objects with intricate geometrical configurations has been used to produce hospital equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) in an attempt to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa. The technology has been used by different research units to produce ventilators, respirator face masks, oscillating respiratory devices, oxygen connectors, oxygen splitters, non-invasive ventilation helmets, reusable clinician PPE, visor frames for face shields, etc. Despite the efforts of the AM community in South Africa, COVID-19 infections have continued to increase in the country. It came to light that technological interventions (including AM) alone cannot prevent the spread of the virus without the corresponding adaptive behavioural changes, such as adhering to COVID-19 prevention protocols (washing of hands, social distancing, etc.). It could be postulated that the spread of COVID-19 can only be prevented by inter-marrying the technological interventions (AM) with adaptive behavioural changes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

A recent study conducted at Sichuan University in the People's Republic of China highlighted the challenges faced by pediatricians in managing children with voice disorders, known as dysphonia. The research found that most pediatric departments in Mainland China lack access to voice assessment and therapy, leading to a need for referrals to otolaryngology for appropriate treatment. Factors such as age, work duration, and hospital grade influenced pediatricians' referral patterns, with older and more experienced practitioners more likely to refer patients. The study concluded that improving education, promoting vocal hygiene, and enhancing referral systems could help better manage children with dysphonia in the region. [Extracted from the article]
