Abstract

Background: Totally endoscopic ear surgery is a novel method of conducting otological surgery. Hierarchical task analysis and the systematic human error reduction and prediction approach ('SHERPA') are valuable tools that can effectively deconstruct the technical and non-technical skills required to successfully complete a surgical procedure. Methods: Twenty-five endoscopic tragal cartilage tympanoplasties were observed, to identify the tasks and subtasks required for completion of totally endoscopic tragal cartilage tympanoplasty. The systematic human error reduction and prediction approach was used to identify the potential risks and methods, to reduce or remediate these risks. Results: A hierarchical task analysis was performed, identifying 8 tasks and 50 subtasks for a safe approach to completing totally endoscopic tragal cartilage tympanoplasty. A risk score for each subtask was calculated to produce a systematic human error reduction and prediction approach and to highlight potential errors. Conclusion: This hierarchical task analysis allowed for quick reference to a correct method of endoscopic tympanoplasty. The systematic human error reduction and prediction approach was employed to reduce the risks associated with undergoing endoscopic tympanoplasty, to improve patient safety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objectives: A national electronic health record is being procured for Health Service Executive hospitals in Ireland. A number of hospitals have implemented an electronic document management system. This study aimed to investigate the efficiency and safety of the electronic document management system in our centre. Methods: A retrospective audit was performed of patients operated on at Galway University Hospital. The availability and location of patients' admission data on the electronic document management system were recorded. These data were analysed using Microsoft Excel software, version 16.45. Results: The records of 100 patients were analysed. The main findings were: 5 per cent of operation notes were missing, 80 per cent were in the incorrect section, while 15 per cent were in the correct 'procedure' section on the electronic document management system. Conclusion: This study shows there is potential for error with 'paper-light' solutions, whereby delayed scanning, misfiling of scanned records and missing records may lead to significant delays in treatment and potential patient safety issues.

Abstract

Objective: The incidence of human papillomavirus-associated head and neck cancers (HPV-HNC) is increasing worldwide. Research in other clinical contexts has shown that healthcare professionals (HCPs) can find discussing HPV with patients challenging. However, limited research has been conducted in HNC. This study aimed to investigate barriers and facilitators to, discussing HPV among HCPs caring for patients with HNC in Ireland.Methods: Semi-structured telephone/face-to-face interviews were conducted with HCPs. Barriers and facilitators to discussing HPV with patients were identified using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF).Results: 20 HCPs (8 clinicians, 3 nurses, 9 allied healthcare professionals) were interviewed. Barriers to discussing HPV included professionals' lack of HPV knowledge, difficulties in talking about sexual issues with patients and lack of privacy to discuss HPV in busy clinic settings. Facilitators included increasing public and patient awareness of the link between HPV and HNC and professional education and skills development.Conclusions: This is the first theoretically informed study to identify barriers and facilitators to discussing HPV with HNC patients. HCPs consider HPV discussions to be an essential part of HNC patient care.Practice Implications: Understanding the issues associated with patient-provider HPV communication will help develop effective interventions to support HCPs in their HPV discussions.

43. High-flow nasal oxygen as an adjunct for the safe removal of impacted metallic upper airway foreign bodies.

Author

van den Berg N, Aly M, Callaghan M, and Keogh I

Abstract

Foreign body airway obstruction is considered an airway emergency and is a challenging clinical scenario for both the otolaryngologist and the anaesthetist. We present three cases of impacted upper airway metallic foreign bodies. Supra-glottic airways were obstructed and precarious. Apnoeic oxygenation utilizing high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO), a form of tubeless anaesthetic, was used in all three cases, leading to the safe removal of the foreign bodies. Increased training, awareness and equipment availability to provide HFNO apnoeic oxygenation in the emergency setting for otolaryngology airway procedures will lead to better outcomes for patients and decreases the risk of a potential surgical airway., Competing Interests: No conflicts of interest.

Abstract

Purpose: Disease- and treatment-related consequences in Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) can result in psychological issues for which specialist psychological support, dubbed psycho-oncology, is recommended. Health and Social Care Professionals (HSCPs) function as a crucial link between survivors and these services, through onward referral pathways. However, little is known about these HSCPs' perspectives on barriers to accessing psycho-oncology in HNC. The current study sought to investigate such perspectives., Methods: Eleven HSCPs from national cancer centres across Ireland were recruited using purposive sampling. A qualitative, cross-sectional research design was implemented utilising virtual semi-structured interviews. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and analysed using inductive, reflexive thematic analysis., Results: The researcher identified four themes relating to barriers to psycho-oncology access: Lack of Access and Perceived Elitism in Onward Referral; Communication Barriers; Stigma Associated with Mental Illness and Psychological Services, and Inadequate Signposting and Advertising of Existing Psycho-Oncology Services. These findings indicate that HSCPs face multiple barriers when attempting to refer HNC survivors to psycho-oncology services. Some of these barriers relate to survivors, others to HSCPs themselves, and some to professionals within psycho-oncology services., Conclusions: By removing barriers in onward referral faced by HSCPs, HNC survivors may more readily link in with pre-existing psycho-oncology services in the future. The following may assist with removing such barriers: increased inter-professional dialogue between HSCPs and psycho-oncology services and communication skills training; mental health stigma reduction campaigns targeted at survivors, HSCPs, and wider society; and increased signposting of available psycho-oncology services and in-service training for HSCPs., (Copyright © 2022 The Authors.

45. Instrumentation failure during microlaryngoscopy.

Author

van den Berg N, Corbett M, Cleere E, and Keogh I

Abstract

Equipment failure can be a cause of morbidity during surgical procedures. We present two cases where a broken surgical instrument, a heart-shaped curved micro-grasper, colloquially termed 'sweetheart' micro-forceps, compromised patient safety during microlaryngoscopy. We discuss the importance of thorough safety protocols and communication between team members to mitigate this risk. Microinstruments used during microlaryngoscopy are at risk of failure or breakage due to their small size. Surgeons must be alert to the risk of equipment failure during surgery as a potential cause of patient morbidity. In our patient, loss of the broken instrument in the respiratory tract could have resulted in iatrogenic aspiration, respiratory infection and would have necessitated rigid bronchoscopy for removal. Instruments and equipment must checked and communicated by the surgical team before and after use to prevent potential patient morbidity., (Published by Oxford University Press and JSCR Publishing Ltd.

46. 'A Down and Out Eye': Case Report of a Primary Ethmoid Mucocele.

Author

James D, Garry S, Corbett M, and Keogh I

Abstract

Paranasal sinus mucoceles are benign, locally expansile masses of the paranasal sinuses that are lined by epithelial cells. They result from obstruction of sinus ostia. The close proximity of paranasal sinus mucoceles to the orbit and skull base predisposing the patient to significant morbidity. We describe the case of a previously healthy 23-year-old gentleman presenting with a five-day history of unilateral (left) eye pain and swelling with an obvious deformity. There was also no history of trauma or prior surgery. He underwent a CT sinus, which showed near complete opacification of the left anterior ethmoid sinus with bony destruction and obvious displacement of the orbit both laterally and anteriorly. This was assessed as to be in keeping with an ethmoid mucocele. Endoscopic marsupialization has become the preferred surgical approach over obliterative procedures for the treatment of paranasal sinus mucoceles. Primary ethmoid mucocele is an uncommon entity, especially in the absence of prior ear, nose and throat (ENT) complaints, and therefore should remain an important differential when a patient presents with a unilateral swelling causing proptosis., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2021, James et al.)

47. A fifteen-year review of skin allergy testing in Irish patients with symptomatic rhinitis.

Author

Nae A, Hinchion K, and Keogh IJ

Abstract

Objective: Our objective was to review skin prick allergy testing (SPAT) results in patients with symptomatic rhinitis in an Irish population., Methods: A fifteen-year retrospective review of our database of symptomatic patients with rhinitis was performed. All patients who had SPAT performed during this interval were included. Data was analysed in terms of demographics and dominant allergens., Results: 1158 patients were included. 617 Females vs 541 Males. Age range five to eighty-five years old. Mean age thirty-four years. 49% of our patients tested positive to at least one aeroallergen. The most common allergens were dust mites (23%) and timothy grass (22%). Patients born during the Irish pollen season (April-July) were between 5 and 7 times more likely to be sensitive to timothy and ryegrass pollens compared to others tested. 241 patients had both SPAT and serum allergen specific IgE testing (SASIgET) performed; positive results were consistent between both groups., Conclusion: Results demonstrated that half of our patients with symptomatic rhinitis had allergen sensitisation. Dust mites and grass were the main allergens in our area. Our nurse led clinic has allowed efficient patient education and the development of a unique Irish SPAT database. Retesting a patient with a known allergy test result it is not indicated., Competing Interests: Authors have no funding, financial or other conflicts of interest, including competing interests to disclose. This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial or not-for-profit sectors., (© 2020 The Authors.)

Abstract

Background: Self-management may help cancer survivors to better deal with challenges to their physical, functional, social and psychological well-being presented by cancer and its treatment. Nonetheless, little is known about how people integrate cancer self-management practices into their daily lives. The aim of this study was to describe and characterise the processes through which head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors attempt to integrate self-management into their daily lives following primary treatment., Methods: Using a purposeful critical case sampling method, 27 HNC survivors were identified through four designated cancer centres in Ireland and participated in face-to-face semi-structured interviews. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed and analysed using thematic analysis., Results: Six themes describing HNC survivors' attempts to integrate self-management into their lives following treatment were identified: grappling with having to self-manage, trying out self-management strategies, becoming an expert self-manager, struggling to integrate self-management strategies into daily life, avoiding recommended self-management and interpreting self-management., Conclusions: This is the first study to describe HNC survivors' attempts to integrate self-management into their daily lives following primary treatment. The findings indicate that HNC survivors exhibit highly individualised approaches to self-management integration and abandon self-management strategies that fail to meet their own specific needs., Implications for Cancer Survivors: Survivors may benefit from skills training and structured support to assist their transition between in-patient care and having to self-manage after primary treatment, and/or ongoing support to deal with persistent and recurring challenges such as eating difficulties and fear of recurrence.

Abstract

Background The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a causal agent in a subset of Head and Neck Cancers (HNC) being diagnosed in younger patients without significant tobacco and alcohol use. This survey assessed the awareness level of HNC and HPV vaccinations in university students. Methods An anonymous, questionnaire-based survey of registered students of the National University of Ireland, Galway (NUIG) was carried out. Results 1,550 responded, 1,494 completed the survey; 1,018 female (68.1%), 476 male (31.9%). 63% had never heard the term HNC. 45% had never heard the term HPV. 69% were unaware of how one would be exposed to HPV. 84% were unaware of the association between HNC and HPV. Conclusions There are poor levels of awareness of HNC, HPV and HPV vaccination. HPV vaccination needs to be appreciated as a major cancer breakthrough. However the public health benefits of increased awareness of HPV, HNC and HPV vaccination have yet to be realised., Competing Interests: The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare.

50. Identifying and reducing risks in functional endoscopic sinus surgery through a hierarchical task analysis.

Author

Corbett M, O'Connor P, Byrne D, Thornton M, and Keogh I

Abstract

Objective: To develop a hierarchical task listing of steps required to perform successful Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). To complete a technical and human factor analysis of tasks resulting in the identification of errors, frequency of occurrence, severity, and reduction through remediation., Methods: A triangulation of methods was used in order to derive the steps required to complete a FESS: 1) a literature review was carried out of published descriptions of FESS techniques; 2) observations of three FESS; 3) interviews with surgeons on FESS techniques. Data sets were combined to develop a task analysis of a correct approach to conducting FESS. A review by 12 surgeons, and observation of 25 FESS resulted in refinement of the task analysis. With input from five consultant surgeons and one consultant anesthetist, a Systematic Human Error Reduction and Prediction Approach (SHERPA) was used to identify the risks and mitigating steps in FESS., Results: Ten tasks and 49 subtasks required for a correct approach to completing FESS were identified based on literature review and expert consensus. A risk score for each subtask was calculated from a suitable risk matrix. Risk reduction methods at each subtask were detailed. High-scoring subtasks were evaluated and varying strategies examined to reduce the likelihood and mitigate the impact of error. The study demonstrates the usefulness of the HTA and SHERPA approach in standardization and optimization of clinical practice in order to improve patient safety., Conclusion: Hierarchical Task Analysis and SHERPA are valuable tools to deconstruct expert performance and to highlight potential errors in FESS. The HTA and SHERPA approach to surgical procedures are useful learning and assessment tools for novice surgeons. The information derived offers the opportunity to improve surgical training and enhance patient safety by identifying high-risk steps in the procedure, and how risk can be mitigated., Level of Evidence: 2c Outcomes Research.
