Abstract:
Emergency services were working all over the world to deal with different types ofemergencies and the frequency of emergencies were increased with the passage of time. Manydeveloping countries even don’t have such services and it was difficult to estimate the scaleof emergencies in those countries. Objectives: To know about the types of emergencies andto help to plan for their prevention in future. Place and duration of study: Data was collectedfrom emergency services department 1122 in four big cities of Punjab from Nov.2004-Feb.2014.Methods: Descriptive observational study. Results: The road traffic emergencies received were243481 in Lahore, 92367 in Faisal Abad, 52507 in Multan and33847 in Rawalpindi. Medicalemergencies were 247692 in Lahore, 82910 in Faisal Abad, 112531 in Multan and 31069 inRawalpindi. Fire incidences were 14594 in Lahore, 6369 in Faisal Abad, 3707 in Multan and3929 in Rawalpindi. Crime incidence related emergencies were 13301 in Lahore, 15051 in FaisalAbad, 5326 in Multan and 1705 in Rawalpindi. Conclusions: Road traffic related emergencieswere increased even some times more than medical emergencies. Fake calls were also inhigher proportion.

Abstract:
Despite the frequency with which psychiatric emergencies are encountered in medical and other services, the literature, at least in the UK, is relatively sparse, with little systematic research on either service provision or areas of clinical interest. Services have often evolved in an ad hoc way and psychiatric emergencies are often seen by very junior trainees early in their psychiatric careers, with little relevant training. Although the vigilance of the Royal College of Psychiatrists on its approval visits has ensured that most trainees are given advice on the recognition and management of violence (at induction courses at the start of their training), it is not uncommon to find that wider areas of training in emergency psychiatry are neglected. It is still the case, for example, that some postgraduate programmes in psychiatry provide little or no formal training on emergency psychiatry.

Abstract:
This paper reports the results of a nationwide survey of social services responses to psychiatric emergencies. The survey is a companion to that by Johnson & Thornicroft (1991) (J&T) who reviewed the emergency service options available in psychiatry, including the emergency clinic, general hospital services, the emergency ward, acute day hospital and crisis intervention and residential services, as well as considering the role of sectorised services, and community mental health centres (CMHCs). For the purposes of our respective surveys of health and social services in England and Wales, we have defined a psychiatric emergency as “occurring when someone (patient, friend, relative or professional) requests urgent intervention on behalf of someone in the community who is suffering from a mental disorder”.

Abstract:
Abstract This report uses audio recorded telephone calls and textual data from an emergency medical services call center to examine the interactional practices through which speakers produce what we call “extraordinary emergencies”, treating the events concerned as requiring moral, as well as medical, attention. Since one of the overarching institutional aims of emergency call centers is to facilitate the efficient provision of medical services, call-takers typically treat reported emergencies as routine events. However, in some instances speakers produce practices that do not contribute toward the institutional agenda of providing medical assistance, thereby treating them as extraordinary cases. These practices occurred recurrently in calls involving reports of emergencies relating to child sexuality, including sexual assaults against children and obstetric emergencies where the mother was particularly young. We discuss the implications of these findings for the situated reproduction of particular moral norms, especially with respect to the category of the child in society.

Abstract:
Social media is much just used for private as well as business purposes, obviously, also during emergencies. Emergency services are often confronted with the amount of information from social media and might consider using them – or not using them. This article highlights the perception of emergency services on social media during emergencies. Within their European research project EMERGENT, the authors therefore conducted an interview study with emergency service staff (N=11) from seven European countries and eight different cities. Their results highlight the current and potential use of social media, the emergency service's participation in research on social media as well as current challenges, benefits and future plans.

Abstract:
Background: Changing service demands require United Kingdom ambulance services to redefine their role and response strategies, in order to reduce unnecessary Emergency Department attendances. Treat and Refer guidelines have been developed with this aim in mind. However, these guidelines have been developed in the absence of reliable evidence or guiding mid-range theory. This has resulted in inconsistencies in clinical practice. One condition frequently included in Treat and Refer guidelines is hypoglycaemia. Therefore this thesis aimed to investigate prehospital hypoglycaemic emergencies in order to develop an evidence base for future interventions and guideline development. Research approach: A pragmatic and inductive applied health services research approach was employed. Multiple methods were used in a sequential explanatory design. Three linked studies were undertaken with the results of previous studies informing the development of the next. Study one: A scoping review of prehospital treatment of hypoglycaemic events. Aims: i) To describe the demographics of the patient population requiring ambulance service assistance for hypoglycaemic emergencies; ii) To determine the extent to which post-hypoglycaemic patients with diabetes, who are prescribed oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHA), experience repeat hypoglycaemic events (RHE) after being treated in the prehospital environment. Methods: A scoping literature review was conducted using an overlapping retrieval strategy that included both published and unpublished literature. Findings: Twenty-three papers and other relevant material were included. Hypoglycaemia related ambulance calls account for 1.3% to 5.2% of ambulance calls internationally. Transportation rates varied between studies (25%-73%). Repeat hypoglycaemic emergencies are experienced by 2-7% of patients within 48 hours. There was insufficient detail to determine any relationship between repeat events and OHA. The low quality of included papers means that the results should be cautiously interpreted. The safety of leaving patients on OHA at home post hypoglycaemic emergency is unknown. Consequently patients taking OHAs who experience a hypoglycaemic emergency should be transported to hospital for observation. There was a lack of knowledge about the Scottish demographics of the patient population. Study two: A retrospective cross-sectional observational study of diabetes related emergency calls. Aims: To investigate i) the patient demographics and characteristics of hypoglycaemia related emergency calls; ii) the incidence of repeat hypoglycaemic events; and iii) the factors associated with emergency calls that result in individuals being left at home. Methods: A retrospective observational cross-sectional study conducted using Medical Priority Dispatch System® call data from West of Scotland Ambulance Control Centre over a 12 month period. Data were extracted on age, gender, dispatch code, time of call, deprivation category, and immediate outcome (home or hospital). Multiple regression analysis was used to determine predictors of remaining at home. Findings: 1319 calls for hypoglycaemia were received. Patient demographics were similar to the scoping review findings. Most patients remained at home (N = 916 vs N = 380; p < .001). RHE’s were experience by 3.1% within 48 hours, and 10.6% within two weeks. The most significant independent predictor for patients remaining at home was a prior call to the ambulance service (OR of 2.4 [95%CI 1.5 to 3.7]). Patients’ reasons for remaining at home and the causes of subsequent severe events are unknown. It is likely that non-clinical factors may explain some of this behaviour. Study 3: Investigating patients’ experiences of prehospital hypoglycaemic care. Aim: To investigate the experiences of patients who are attended by ambulance clinicians for a hypoglycaemic emergency. Methods: In-depth interviews with adults with diabetes who had recently experienced a hypoglycaemic emergency treated by ambulance clinicians. Participants were recruited from Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Lanarkshire Health Board areas. Data were analysed using Framework Analysis. Findings: Twenty six patients were interviewed. Three key themes were developed. Firstly, an explanation for help seeking behaviour; patients’ impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia as well as the inability of friends and relatives to cope can contribute to an ambulance call-out. Secondly, the perceptions of ambulance service care; patients felt the service provided was good; however ambulance clinicians’ advice was inconsistent. Thirdly, the influences on uptake of follow-up care; patient preferences for follow-up care were influenced by previous experiences of home, hospital and primary care. Post-hoc analysis identified three psychological theories that may explain these findings and provide a useful basis for intervention development: Common Sense Model (Leventhal et al, 1998); Health Belief Model (Rosenstock, 1966); Ley’s cognitive hypothesis model of communication (Ley and Llewelyn, 1995; 1981). Conclusion: Most people treated for severe hypoglycaemia by ambulance clinicians remain at home and do not follow-up their care. A few experience repeat hypoglycaemic emergencies. Key causal, but modifiable factors, contributing to this include:- impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia; inconsistent delivery of ambulance clinician referral advice; and patients’ perceptions of the costs and benefits of follow-up care. Ambulance services cannot address all these factors in isolation. The studies in this thesis have generated an evidence base and identified plausible candidate theories. This will support the future development of novel interventions to improve severe hypoglycaemic emergency follow-up.

Introdução. Em todo o mundo, nos últimos anos, percebeu-se um aumento significativo da procura de atendimento nos serviços de urgência e emergência, essa demanda está atrelada ao aumento das estatísticas de acidentes automobilísticos, da violência e a procura para cuidados não urgentes. A superlotação desses serviços é algo preocupante, uma vez que compromete a segurança dos pacientes envolvendo elevado tempo de espera, a classificação de risco, a educação do paciente e da equipe em relação a finalidade desse atendimento surgem como métodos de organização do fluxo. Objetivo. Identificar o perfil da demanda atendida na Unidade de Pronto Atendimento (UPA) de Itapeva, considerando a classificação de risco, e desenvolver material educativo digital a partir do perfil caracterizado. Método. O estudo foi realizado em 3 etapas, a primeira consistiu em uma revisão integrativa da literatura, que teve por objetivo conhecer o motivo da busca por atendimento da demanda não urgente, esta resultou em uma amostra de 8 estudos a partir da busca nas bases de dados: Biblioteca virtual em saúde (BVS), Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, Scopus e Cinahal. A etapa seguinte consistiu em um estudo quantitativo, transversal e descritivo que teve intuito de analisar o perfil de atendimentos da UPA do município de Itapeva. Quanto à amostragem, foi realizado cálculo estatístico para o tamanho amostral, considerando 95% de confiança e uma margem de erro de 5%, sendo recomendada amostra com n de 370 pacientes. A coleta de dados ocorreu através de acesso aos prontuários físicos localizados no setor de arquivo, no período de março a junho de 2017, referentes aos pacientes atendidos de janeiro a abril de 2017. A última etapa correspondeu a um estudo de desenvolvimento tecnológico com o objetivo de elaborar um material digital para educação em saúde, tanto para profissionais quanto para pacientes. O desenvolvimento foi realizado com o apoio do Núcleo de Educação a Distância Tecnologia e Informação em Saúde da FMB- UNESP. Resultados e discussão. A revisão integrativa evidenciou que a demanda não urgente procura atendimento pela facilidade de acesso e pela tecnologia que o serviço de urgência e emergência oferece. A análise da demanda atendida na UPA de Itapeva foi capaz de mostrar que quase 80% dos atendimentos tratavam de demanda não urgente, com queixas não recentes, e apenas aproximadamente 2% da amostra necessitou ser removida para o hospital de referência do município, o que apresenta a alta resolubilidade das unidades de pronto atendimento. Uma limitação do estudo foi a insuficiente capacitação do profissional enfermeiro para exercer atividade do acolhimento com classificação de risco. Foi necessário, portanto, elaborar estratégias que pudessem contribuir com essa necessidade da unidade, assim como colaborar com a educação dos pacientes para o uso do pronto atendimento. Esses levantamentos deram subsídios para a criação de dois produtos: um website e um vídeo educativo, o primeiro voltado aos profissionais e o outro voltado para a população. Conclusão. A população realiza uso indiscriminado da unidade de pronto atendimento, seja por desconhecimento da sua finalidade ou por conveniência de atendimento. A maior parte dos atendimentos consiste em demanda não urgente, e se faz necessária intervenção, como estratégias de educação em saúde, que possa direcionar a população para o oportuno atendimento, assim como a capacitação profissional, buscando alcançar melhores resultados na assistência.
Introduction. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the demand for emergency services across the world. This demand is linked to the statistical increase of car accidents, violence and the search for non-urgent care. The overcrowding of these services is somewhat worrisome, since it compromises the safety of patients, involving high waiting time. Risk classification, patient and team education on the purposes of such services arise as methods of flow organization. Objective. Identify the profile of the demand served by the Itapeva Emergency Care Unit (UPA), considering the risk classification, and to develop digital educational material based on the characterized profile. Method. The study was carried out in 3 stages. The first consisted of an integrative review of the literature, which aimed to know the reasons involving the search for non-urgent care. It resulted in a sample of 8 studies taken from the database: Virtual Health Library (VHL), Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, Scopus and Cinahal. The next step consisted of a quantitative, cross-sectional and descriptive study which aimed to analyze the care profile of the UPA in the city of Itapeva. As for sampling, a statistical calculation was performed for the sample size, considering 95% confidence, a margin of error of 5%, and a sample with n corresponding to 370 patients. Data collection was taken from physical files located in its archive sector, from March to June 2017, referring to the patients attended from January to April 2017. The last step corresponded to a technological development study with aiming to develop digital material for health education for both professionals and patients. The development was carried out with the support of the Nucleus of Distance Education Technology and Information in Health of FMB- UNESP. Results and discussion. The integrative review showed that non-urgent demand seeks care due to the ease of access and the technology offered by the emergency service. The demand analysis at Itapeva’s UPA showed that almost 80% of the cases dealt with non-urgent demands, with no recent complaints, and only approximately 2% of the cases analysed needed to be sent to the reference hospital in the municipality, which demonstrates the high resolubility of the immediate care units services. One limitation of the study was the insufficient training of nurses to carry out host activity with risk classification. It was therefore necessary to devise strategies which could contribute to that necessity, as well as collaborate with the education of patients regarding the use of immediate care. Those surveys provided support for the creation of two products: a website and an educational video, the first aimed at professionals and the second aimed at the population. Conclusion. The population makes indiscriminate use of the immediate care service, either for lack of knowledge of its purpose or for convenience of service. The majority of the visits consisted of non-urgent demand, which requires intervention such as health education strategies which can direct the population to the appropriate service, as well as professional qualification, seeking to achieve better results in care.

Abstract:
Introdução Após mais de uma década de implantação do Serviço de Atendimento Móvel de Urgência (SAMU), torna-se importante lançar um olhar crítico a este serviço a fim de identificar as propostas da Política Nacional de Atenção às Urgências. Objetivo - Descrever e analisar criticamente o processo de trabalho da Central de Regulação do SAMU São Paulo (SAMU SP). Métodos Foi realizado um estudo de caso descritivo exploratório, com estratégia de métodos mistos, integrando as abordagens quantitativa (dados secundários referentes ao mês de outubro de 2012) e qualitativa (observação direta e entrevistas com três médicos reguladores). O banco de dados secundários permitiu descrever a demanda do SAMU SP e verificar a existência de padrões de associação entre as variáveis. Foi realizado o cálculo das frequências absolutas e relativas de todas as variáveis categóricas e cálculo dos tempos envolvidos no atendimento préhospitalar. As entrevistas foram transcritas e analisadas por meio da análise de conteúdo de Bardin com o objetivo identificar fatores subjetivos que não foram possíveis de serem mensurados na análise quantitativa. Foi realizada uma segunda análise estatística do banco de dados, com foco no processo de priorização das ocorrências, sendo investigadas as variáveis despacho e tempo de regulação, segundo determinante de prioridade e queixas principais. Foi utilizado o teste chi-quadrado para significância estatística. Resultados - A demanda é majoritariamente clínica (59,2 por cento ), masculina (52,2 por cento ), entre 20 e 59 anos (54,5 por cento ) e classificadas com Determinantes de alta prioridade (Echo e Delta) (52,5 por cento ). As transferências inter-hospitalares correspondem a 0,6 por cento da demanda. A frequência de despacho de ambulância é de 63,4 por cento e decresce conforme a prioridade diminui, chegando a 21,2 por cento no Determinante de menor prioridade (Ômega). O tempo resposta é inversamente proporcional ao Determinante de prioridade, e uma parte significativa de ocorrências de baixa prioridade (35,9 por cento ) são incluídas no sistema de saúde. Foram identificadas três dimensões que influenciam o processo de priorização das ocorrências: condições clínicas reportadas (parada cardiorrespiratória, problemas respiratórios, inconsciência) condições de vulnerabilidade e risco específicos (idosos e crianças abaixo de 3 anos, quedas, medo por parte do médico regulador de subestimar, presença de violência, interação com outros serviços) e condições intrínsecas ao processo de trabalho da central de operações SAMU SP (alta demanda e poucos recursos, trabalho colaborativo com outros profissionais). Conclusões A descrição e análise crítica da demanda e do processo de trabalho do SAMU SP traz elementos para a discussão sobre seu papel dentro do sistema de saúde do município. É possível afirmar que o SAMU SP tem cumprido a missão de salvar vidas, provendo assistência qualificada para pacientes classificados de altíssima prioridade que necessitam de atendimento fora do ambiente hospitalar. Ordenar a demanda de urgência e se configurar como um observatório de saúde passam pela necessidade do reconhecimento técnico e político de que se trata de um serviço integrado a rede de atenção à saúde e não apenas a rede temática da urgência
Introduction After more than a decade of Brazilian Mobile Emergency Services (SAMU) implementation, it becomes importante to launch a critical look at this service in order to identify the proposals of the National Policy for Emergency Care. Objective To critically describe and analyze the work process of SAMU Regulation Center of the city of São Paulo (SAMU SP). Methods A descriptive exploratory case study with mixed methods strategy, integrating the quantitative (secondary data for October 2012) and qualitative (direct observation and interviews with three regulatory physicians) approaches. The secondary database was used to describe SAMU SP demand and to verify the existence of patterns of association between the variables. Absolute and relative frequencies of all categorical variables and the times involved in prehospital care were calculated. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed through Bardin content analysis with the objective of identifying subjective factors that were not possible to be measured in the quantitative analysis. A second statistical analysis of the database was carried out, focusing on the prioritization of emergency incidentes. The frequency of dispatch and regulation time were investigated, according to the Priority Determinant and main complaint. The chi-square test was used for statistical significance. Results - The demand is composed mainly by clinical chief complaints (59.2 per cent ), male patients (52.2 per cent ), between 20 and 59 years old (54.5 per cent ) and classified with high priority determinants (Echo and Delta) (52.5 per cent ). Interhospital transfers correspond to 0.6 per cent of the demand. Ambulance dispatch frequency is 63.4 per cent and decreases as the priority decreases, reaching 21.2 per cent in the lowest Priority Determinant (Omega). The response time is inversely proportional to the Priority Determinant, and a significant portion of low priority occurrences (35.9 per cent ) are included in the health system. Three dimensions have been identified that influence the prioritization of emergency incidents: reported clinical conditions (cardiorespiratory arrest, respiratory problems, unconsciousness), vulnerable conditions and specific risk of the emergency incident (elderly and children under 3 years, falls, medical doctor fear of underestimation, presence of violence, interaction with other services) and work process intrinsic conditions of SAMU SP operations center (high demand and few resources, collaborative work with other professionals). Conclusions The description and critical analysis of the demand and work process of the SAMU SP brings elements to the discussion about its role within the health system of the city of São Paulo. It is possible to affirm that SAMU SP has fulfilled the mission of saving lives, providing qualified assistance to patients classified as high priority who need care outside the hospital environment. In order to SAMU SP organize the demand for urgent care and to be a health observatory, there is the need of technical and political re-recognition that it is a service integrated to the health care network and not just a thematic network of urgency

Abstract:
CHDS State/Local
The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) was formed to provide a cadre of trained medical volunteers to support and strengthen the public health infrastructure and improve its' emergency preparedness level. Training policies and standards are left to the discretion of the local MRC coordinator so the program maintains its flexibility to meet community needs. Training varies from unit to unit, and there are no protocols in place to measure or evaluate the effectiveness of that training. According to recent studies and surveys, disaster operations are an unfamiliar role for most MRC volunteers and the public health workforce in general. Evidence also suggests that few medical and public health workers receive this important preparedness training. In 2005, MRC working group members developed a list of core competency recommendations to provide training guidance, but specific educational content to satisfy those competencies were not defined. This thesis offers specific training content guidelines and strategies for achieving competency. The MRC must be able to integrate into the disaster environment while working safely, effectively and efficiently. Standards will set the mark for success, enabling the MRC to respond in a coordinated manner and at a consistently higher level to any public health emergency.

Abstract:
Os serviços de saúde destinados ao atendimento às urgências e emergências encontram-se, em sua grande maioria, superlotados ocasionando longas filas de espera, o que pode resultar em prejuízo para o atendimento às pessoas com agravos que demandam urgência no atendimento. Diante deste cenário, faz-se necessário uma organização do sistema, a fim de evitar danos aos pacientes que aguardam por atendimento médico. Neste contexto, o Acolhimento com Classificação de Risco traz ao atendimento de urgência e emergência um norteador para classificar os pacientes e realizar atendimento segundo o potencial de risco, atendendo os casos prioritários e não mais por ordem de chegada. Sendo assim, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a capacidade de um protocolo de Classificação de Risco adaptado do Ministério da Saúde em predizer o desfecho clínico dos pacientes. O estudo foi realizado em uma unidade de urgência e emergência de um hospital privado do interior paulista, compreendendo os meses de julho de 2014 a junho de 2015, com uma amostra de 1674 prontuários de pacientes que buscaram atendimento clínico. Dos prontuários avaliados, 65% eram de pacientes do sexo feminino, com média de idade de 42,0 anos, a queixa mais frequente estava relacionada ao trato digestório (14,8%). A maioria dos pacientes atendidos foi classificada como pouco urgente (verde) 91,2%, seguido de 8,8% de urgentes (amarelos) e 0,1% classificados como emergentes (vermelho). O tempo de atendimento pela classificação de risco e atendimento médico se mostrou-se mais breve nas classificações com maior prioridade. Na análise dos desfechos, 98,7% receberam alta após atendimento médico, tendo como prevalente a classificação não urgente. Dos pacientes encaminhados à internação 59,1% foram classificados como emergentes/urgentes. Ao relacionarmos a classificação de risco com o escore de alerta precoce (MEWS), observamos uma pontuação superior nos pacientes classificados como emergentes/urgentes, sendo que os pacientes internados obtiveram pontuação maior dos que foram liberados de alta. Os resultados encontrados demonstraram que a classificação de risco foi efetiva em definir a prioridade de atendimento dos pacientes em uma unidade de urgência e emergência
The health services intended to provide urgent and emergency care are mostly overcrowded, which causes long waiting queues and may entail damage to the care of injured people requiring urgent care. Faced with this scenario, there is a need to organize the system, with the purpose of avoiding losses to the patients waiting for medical care. In such a context, the Welcoming with Risk Classification provides the urgent and emergency care with a guiding principle to classify patients and accomplish care actions in line with the potential risk, thereby caring for priority cases, and no longer on a first-come first-served basis. Accordingly, this study was aimed to assess the ability of a Risk Classification protocol adapted from the Ministry of Health to envisage the clinical outcome of the patients. The study was held in an urgent and emergency unit in a private hospital in the countryside of São Paulo, between the months of July 2014 and June 2015, with a sample of 1674 medical charts of the patients that sought clinical care. Of the assessed medical charts, 65% belonged to female patients, with an average age of 42.0 years, where the most frequent complaint was related to the digestive tract (14.8%). Most of patients served were classified as less urgent (green), 91.2%, followed by 8.8% classified as urgent (yellow) and 0.1% classified as emergency (red). The service time by the risk classification and medical care has proved to be shorter in the classifications with greater priority. Upon analyzing the outcomes, 98.7% were discharged after medical care, where the non-urgent classification was prevalent. Of the patients referred for hospitalization, 59.1% were classified as emergency/urgent. When relating the risk classification with the early warning score (MEWS), we noted a higher score in the patients classified as emergency/urgent, and the hospitalized patients have reached scores higher than those who were discharged. The results found have shown that the risk classification was effective in defining the priority of care of patients in an urgent and emergency unit

Abstract:
Introdução: A simulação médica está se tornando um padrão no treinamento da área da saúde, seja na graduação, pós-graduação ou educação continuada. Embora existam significativos estudos avaliando os efeitos do estresse crônico na saúde física e mental de médicos, poucas são as pesquisas sobre os efeitos do estresse agudo na performance. A relação entre performance e estresse agudo é controversa. O objetivo primário desta pesquisa foi avaliar se cenários simulados podem induzir níveis de estresse equivalentes a emergências reais. Métodos: Vinte e oito residentes de clínica médica participaram de 32 atendimentos de emergência (16 reais e 16 simulados). Eles tiveram o nível de estresse medido no período basal (T1) e imediatamente após os atendimentos (T2). Parâmetros medindo estresse agudo foram: frequência cardíaca (FC), pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) e diastólica (PAD), alfa-amilase salivar (AA), interleucina-1 beta salivar (IL-1beta) e o Inventário de Ansiedade Estado (IDA-E). Resultados: No grupo realidade, todos os parâmetros aumentaram significativamente entre T1 e T2. No grupo simulação, apenas a FC e IL-1beta aumentaram. A comparação entre os grupos (real versus simulação) demonstrou que a resposta de estresse agudo (T2-T1) e o IDA-E (T2) não diferiu entre os grupos. A correlação entre os diferentes parâmetros medindo estresse foi ruim. Discussão/Conclusão: Parâmetros medindo estresse aumentaram entre o T1 e T2 na realidade (FC, SBP, DBP, AA e IL-1beta) e no ambiente simulado (FC e IL-1beta). Resposta de estresse agudo, medida pelos valores T2-T1 e a pontuação no IDA-E não diferiram entre os grupos. Nossos resultados indicam que a simulação em medicina de emergência pode criar um ambiente de alta fidelidade psicológica equivalente à uma sala de emergência real. A simulação médica pode ser usada de maneira efetiva em medicina de emergência, especialmente quando treinamos elementos de fatores humanos, como o estresse
Introduction: Medical simulation is fast becoming a standard of health care training throughout undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing medical education. Although there has been significant research into the effects of chronic stress on both physical and mental health of physicians, there has been little research into the effects of acute stress on performance. The relation between performance and acute stress is highly controversial. Our aim in this research was to evaluate if simulated scenarios may induce stress levels equivalent to real emergency medical situations. Method: Twenty-eight internal medicine residents participated in 32 emergency situations (16 real-life emergencies and 16 simulated emergencies). They had their stress levels measured in baseline (T1) and immediately post-emergencies (T2). Parameters measuring acute stress were: heart rate (HR), systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), salivary alpha amylase (AA), interleukine-1 beta (IL-b) and State Anxiety Inventory (STAI-s). Results: In the real-life group, all parameters increased significantly between T1 and T2. In the simulation group, only HR and IL-1b increased after emergencies. The comparison between groups (real-life versus simulation) demonstrates that acute stress response (T2-T1) and STAI-s (T2) did not differ between both groups. The correlation between the different parameters measuring stress was poor. Discussion/Conclusion: Stress measuring parameters increased between T1 and T2 in real-life situations (HR, SBP, DBP, AA and IL-1b) and in the simulated setting (HR and IL-1b). Acute stress response, measured by T2 - T1 values and STAI-s scale, did not differ between both groups. Our results indicate that emergency medicine simulation may create a high psychological fidelity environment, similarly to what is observed in an actual emergency room. Medical simulation may be effectively used in emergency medicine, especially when training human factor elements

Abstract:
Bag-valve mask (BVM) ventilation maintains a patient's oxygenation and ventilation until a more definitive artificial airway can be established. In the prehospital setting of a traffic collision or medical aid scene this is performed by an Emerency Medical Technician or medical first responder. Few studies have looked at the effectiveness of Bag-valve masks (BVM) or the complication rate of ventilating an unprotected airway. The purpose and goal of this study is to educate both medical first responders and basic emergency medical technicians.

Abstract: The usage of drone technology has increased in a vast range of disciplines, including medical services. Drones can aerially deliver medical supplies and laboratory test samples during health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic. It can also be used as a delivery device for an automated external defibrillator which might significantly increase the survival chances of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims. Significant cost savings compared with ground transportation and speed of delivery will probably drive drone implementation in various areas in the next few years.

Abstract:
La pandemia de COVID-19, que llegó a América Latina en marzo de 2020, ubicó a las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) en un rol protagónico a la hora de sostener la prestación de los servicios públicos. En el ámbito educativo, la virtualización de emergencia de los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje y la incorporación de tecnologías de forma no planificada presentaron un punto de inflexión y volvieron a poner en agenda una potencial transformación digital virtuosa del sector. En ese marco, el estudio busca contribuir al debate actual sobre la adecuación de la educación en América Latina a partir de la experiencia en pandemia y explorar las posibilidades que ofrecen las nuevas tecnologías a futuro. Mediante diferentes instrumentos de consulta aplicados a especialistas, funcionarios y practitioners de la Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia y México, y con el apoyo de fuentes secundarias, se identificaron nuevas y no tan nuevas demandas que la emergencia sanitaria le impuso al sistema educativo, así como oportunidades y desafíos generados por la incorporación de tecnologías en los diferentes procesos.

Abstract:
Urban air mobility (UAM) refers to urban transportation systems that move people by air. UAM offers the potential for reducing traffic congestion in cities and providing an integrated approach to urban mobility. With the emergence of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, drone technology, and the possibility of automated aircraft, interest in this topic has grown considerably for private sector solution providers—including aerospace and technology companies—as well as urban planners and transportation professionals. Unsettled Issues Concerning Urban Air Mobility Infrastructure discusses the infrastructure requirements to effectively integrate UAM services into the overarching urban transportation system to enable multimodal trips and complete origin to destination travel.
