Abstract:
West Nile virus has a potential to emerge in new areas and cause large epidemics as was witnessed in the United States following its introduction in 1999. The virus is now a global public health threat, having been detected on every continent except Antarc tica. Once restricted to Africa, its expansion beyond its natural habitat is related to some viral, vectoral, anthropologic and environmental factors. The successful establishment and spread of the virus depend in part on viral adaptations, availability of competent hosts and mosquito vectors and suitable environmental conditions. A combination of measures can be applied to minimise the likelihood of a WN virus epidemic. Available vaccines are only for veterinary use, human vaccines are still in development . Vector control, animal vaccination, targeted surveillance and strong cooperation between relevant authorities are important in preventing a WN virus epidemic in Malaysia.

Abstract:
Complete emergency measures are one of the important guarantees for effective emergency response. An evaluation method based on User-Generated Content (UGC) data is proposed to assess the completeness of emergency measures. To implement this method, UGC data comprising emergency needs from the users and emergency plans comprising emergency measures for specific emergency were firstly collected using a crawler program. A feature template was then established to identify relationships between different features, and a Conditional Random Field (CRF) model was used to extract emergency measures from the emergency plan and emergency needs from UGC data. The Siamese network was applied thereafter to compute the similarity between the emergency measures and emergency needs. The missing emergency measures were obtained based on the similarities, and a quantitative method to calculate the completeness was defined. Finally, using province A as a case study, the emergency measure completeness was evaluated and the emergency measures that need to be strengthened and improved were identified.

Abstract:
The solution of the problem of developing approaches to the management of the emergency prevention process in the conditions of limited energy supply of emergency response measures is considered. Within the framework of solving the problem, the process of emergency management in the conditions of limited energy supply is analyzed and the scheme of managerial influence on the process of spreading the emergency situation in the conditions of limited energy supply is developed. A structural and logical model of emergency management in conditions of limited energy supply has been developed. Developed a structural and logical model of emergency management in conditions of limited energy supply, which consists of twelve units. These are monitoring of the situation, identification of risks, notification and evacuation of people, search and identification of the danger of emergence and spread of emergency in conditions of limited energy supply, decision-making on the use of special equipment for electricity generation, preparatory measures, information control measures. measures in case of spread of danger, localization of sources of spread of danger, decision-making on recovery without quarantine regime in the region of hostilities, impact on the situation, analysis of the effectiveness of preventive measures and emergency prevention measures. The location of the units on six hierarchical levels, connected by logical connections, provides information on the state of the region in conditions of limited energy supply through the elements of the monitoring system and impact on the region through the system of performers, providing a continuous management process to minimize the consequences of emergency. The obtained results allow, using innovative information and technical methods of emergency prevention of such nature, to further form a modern method of emergency response in conditions of limited energy supply of emergency response measures, supplementing the above methods with an effective crisis management system. Key words: emergency situation, structural-logical model, conditions of limited energy supply.

Abstract:
This study seeks to understand the public service motivations (PSMs) of professional emergency managers. In order to do this, county-level emergency managers completed an electronic survey designed to measure their PSM using standard PSM measures developed by Perry in 1996 along with my own emergency management specific measures. The survey results strongly indicate that county-level emergency managers have high levels of PSM, and they have a strong desire to specifically be emergency managers.

Abstract:
Purpose – Emergency relief supply chain (ERSC) design is an important strategic decision that significantly affects the overall performance of emergency management activities. The performance of an ERSC can be measured by several performance measures some of which may conflict with each other. The purpose of this paper is to propose an ERSC design framework by simultaneously taking total logistics cost (TLC), risk level, and amount of demands covered in an ERSC into consideration. Design/methodology/approach – The study considers TLC of an ERSC as the sum of logistics cost from distribution warehouses (DWHs) to Break of Bulbs (BOBs) and from BOBs to affected neighborhoods. The risk level of an ERSC is measured by estimating the expected number of disrupted relief items (EDI) distributed from DWHs through BOBs to neighborhoods. The covered demand (CDM) is defined as total populations that are supported in case of an emergency, the populations within the maximal coverage distance (MCD) from relief facilities. Based on these performance measures, the authors formulate a Goal Programming (GP) model to distribute emergency relief items to affected locations. Ideal values of these performance measures are decided, and the GP model seeks to minimize the weighted sum of the percentage deviations of those performance measures from the ideal values. The relationships among performance measures have been thoroughly analyzed through detailed trade-off studies under two realistic case studies by changing weights of each performance measure. Findings – Three performance measures are interdependent over specific values of weights. TLC and EDI have a trade-off relationship when the weight on each measure increases. TLC and CDM also have a trade-off relationship when the weight on EDI increases. However, this relationship becomes less apparent when the MCD increases. EDI and CDM also have the same trade-off relationship when the weight on TLC changes. Therefore, decision makers should thoroughly analyze these trade-off relationships when they design ERSCs. Overall, the study identified that an ERSC with higher MCD outperforms one with lower MCD in terms of TLC, EDI, and CDM. Originality/value – The study presents a design framework to generate more balanced ERSCs by simultaneously taking three conflicting performance measures into consideration, and demonstrated the feasibility of the framework through realistic case studies. The trade-off analysis provides useful insights and theoretical knowledge to researchers and practitioners in the discipline of emergency logistics management. The results from this study are expected to contribute to the development of more balanced ERSCs.

Full text
Abstract:
With healthcare organizations struggling to remain competitive and financially stable in a market where minimizing costs is a priority, hospital administrators feel the sense of urgency when it comes to keeping patients satisfied with services in order to expand volume and market share. The Emergency Department is considered the front door of a healthcare organization, and keeping its visitors satisfied in order to guarantee a future visit or a referral to a friend or family member is a must. While patient input on the services received in a healthcare facility is essential to improving quality of care, the costs associated with measuring, collecting and analyzing their feedback are remarkable. This research focuses on developing a linear regression model to predict patient satisfaction in the ED using surrogate measures related to patient's socio-demographic characteristics and visit characteristics. With a model of this kind, healthcare administrators can potentially eliminate survey costs while still being able to determine where the hospital stands in the eyes of the patient. Three modeling approaches were used to develop a multiple regression equation. Modeling approach 1 used monthly patient satisfaction scores as the dependent variable collected by a third-party survey organization. The goal of this model was to predict monthly patient satisfaction scores. Modeling approach 2 used patient satisfaction scores collected by the discharge registrar prior to the patient leaving the ED. The goal of this model was to predict patient satisfaction scores on a patient-by-patient basis. Modeling approach 3 used patient satisfaction scores collected by a third-party survey organization. The goal of this modeling approach was to predict patient satisfaction scores on a patient-by-patient basis. Each modeling approach developed in this study used its own survey tool. Though this study had limitations when it came to developing the models and validating the findings, results are very promising. Analysis shows that predicting average patient satisfaction scores on a monthly basis gives the most accurate results, with socio-demographic characteristics and visit characteristics explaining 96% of variation in monthly average patient satisfaction scores. Other model indicators, such as normality of residuals, predicted error, mean square error, and predicted R-square show that the model fits the data very well and has strong predictive ability. Models that attempted to predict patient satisfaction on a patient-by-patient basis appeared to be ineffective, with very large predicted errors and prediction intervals and low predictive ability.

Yazdani, Shahid. "Emergency safeguard : WTO and the feasibility of emergency safeguard measures under the general agreement on trade in services." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2012. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/573/.

Full text
Abstract:
The General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) along with other agreements was concluded in the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations in 1994. However, negotiations continued within the WTO framework and are still a work in progress on some specific issues under the GATS including the question of Emergency Safeguard Measures, which has been raised in Article X of the GATS as part of its ‘built-in agenda’. The thesis looks at the concept of the Emergency Safeguards Measures (ESMs) in the GATT/WTO and tries to develop an answer to the ‘question of ESMs’, which is deluding the negotiators and researchers for more than fifteen years. The thesis tries to analyse whether the GATT type ESMs can be transposed to GATS. It also explores that whether ESMs that are modelled on GATT are feasible under GATS, and if feasible, are these really desirable. If these are feasible and desirable then what should be their possible structure remaining within the existing GATT paradigm. The thesis walks through the provisions that already exist in the GATS to meet the circumstances perceived by the countries that are seeking specific ESMs under GATS and whether these provisions address the concerns of the demanders of the concept. The thesis not only takes into account the academic and legal literature on the subject but also and perhaps more practically, takes into account the dynamics of the negotiations, discussions and debates within the WTO system on the subject. The thesis tries to provide an in-depth analysis of the issue and goes beyond what is already available in the International Trade Law literature on the ESMs under the cross border trade in services. It seeks to answer a question that presently exists in the International Trade Law especially with reference to the law emerging out of WTO.

Abstract:
Introduction. The treatment of cellulitis with intravenous antibiotics administered in Emergency Departments is a new phenomenon with significant inter-physician variation. A clinical trial will address many of the questions surrounding this practice. Previous trials have been flawed because of the absence of a validated objective outcome measure. Methods. Eligible patients with cellulitis were prospectively recruited for an observational cohort study and underwent daily measurements of their infection. These measurements were evaluated for their feasibility, inter-rater reliability and criterion validity (compared with the primary outcome of treatment failure versus clinical response; a classification based on physician treatment decisions) Results. Only the infection size and change in size over time performed well, obtaining statistical significance in all domains. Conclusions. The change in size of infection over time is a valid and reliable reflection of clinical decisions for patients with cellulitis, and should be used as the primary outcome for clinical trials of cellulitis therapy.

Full text
Abstract:

Learning to provide emergency care alone and with others in the clinical environment imposes unexplored stresses on novice caregivers. It is unclear whether this stress inhibits or promotes performance and learning. Many academic health professions programs incorporate simulation as a method for teaching patient care emergencies. This study employed a modified switching replications design to explore the relationships and differences between psychological, physiological, and performance measures in health professions students who participated in acutely stressful health care simulation scenarios. Twenty-seven volunteer participants recruited from nursing, medicine, pharmacy, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy were assigned to teams in either a simulation treatment or a control group. Teams participated in two simulations scenarios where a fallen patient required assistance. Subjects in the simulation treatment groups received a standardized training module called the First Five Minutes® between simulation experiences. Mean heart rate, maximal mean heart rate, salivary alpha amylase levels, and salivary cortisol levels were compared at intervals before, during, and after each simulation scenario. Psychological stress was evaluated using the Stressor Appraisal Scale (SAS). Team performance during scenarios was scored by independent evaluators using an skills checklist adapted from a standardized commercially available training module, The First Five Minutes™. Performance scores improved in both groups during the second simulation. Mean performance scores of the simulation intervention teams (M = 14.1, SD = 1.43) were significantly higher (t = 4.54, p < .01) than the performance scores of the control teams ( M = 10.6, SD = .96). Psychological and physiological measures did not significantly predict performance. Psychological and physiological indicators were reactive to the simulations across time, but did not differ significantly between the control and simulation intervention groups. This investigation explored the multi-dimensional nature of stress (psychological and physiological) that health professions students experience while learning. Simulation intervention did significantly improve group performance, but did not mitigate individual participant stress. Future research should include study with teams of working professionals to determine whether performance and stress measures differ with experience and expertise.

Abstract:
Rates of survival of victims of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) using cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) have shown little improvement over the past three decades. Since registered nurses (RNs) comprise the largest group of healthcare providers in U.S. hospitals, it is essential that they are competent in performing the four primary measures (compression, ventilation, medication administration, and defibrillation) of CPR in order to improve survival rates of SCA patients. The purpose of this experimental study was to test a color-coded SMOCK system on:1) time to implement emergency patient care measures 2) technical skills performance 3) number of medical errors, and 4) team performance during simulated CPR exercises. The study sample was 260 RNs (M 40 years, SD=11.6) with work experience as an RN (M 7.25 years, SD=9.42).Nurses were allocated to a control or intervention arm consisting of 20 groups of 5-8 RNs per arm for a total of 130 RNs in each arm. Nurses in each study arm were given clinical scenarios requiring emergency CPR. Nurses in the intervention group wore different color labeled aprons (smocks) indicating their role assignment (medications, ventilation, compression, defibrillation, etc) on the code team during CPR. Findings indicated that the intervention using color-labeled smocks for pre-assigned roles had a significant effect on the time nurses started compressions (t=3.03, p=0.005), ventilations (t=2.86, p=0.004) and defibrillations (t=2.00, p=.05) when compared to the controls using the standard of care. In performing technical skills, nurses in the intervention groups performed compressions and ventilations significantly better than those in the control groups. The control groups made significantly (t=-2.61, p=0.013) more total errors (7.55 SD 1.54) than the intervention group (5.60, SD 1.90). There were no significant differences in team performance measures between the groups. Study findings indicate use of colored labeled smocks during CPR emergencies resulted in: shorter times to start emergency CPR; reduced errors; more technical skills completed successfully; and no differences in team performance.

Lourens, Andrit. "Developing an in-depth understanding of acute pain assessment and management in the prehospital setting in the Western Cape, South Africa, the factors influencing practice and what improvement measures could advance prehospital acute pain management." Doctoral thesis, Faculty of Health Sciences, 2021. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/32775.

Full text
Abstract:
Introduction: Acute pain is a common reason for seeking emergency care in the prehospital and emergency centre settings where pain prevalence ranges widely. Pain is a significant global health problem which often goes unnoticed and is undermanaged. To this end, a project consisting of a series of research studies aimed to develop an understanding of acute prehospital pain assessment and management in South Africa was conducted to identify how best to improve this field. Methods: The project consisted of four distinct objectives to be investigated as separate but interconnected studies. The first objective was answered through a secondary research methodology (scoping review) to identify and map the body of evidence on acute prehospital pain assessment and management in Africa. The remaining three objectives were answered using primary research methods in studies conducted in the Western Cape, South Africa. Two observational studies, (i) a cross-sectional online survey and (ii) a retrospective review, respectively, aimed to describe (i) the knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding prehospital acute pain assessment and management among emergency care providers and (ii) current prehospital acute pain assessment and management practices in high acuity trauma patients. The final study employed qualitative research methods using focus groups and content analysis to explore and describe emergency care providers' perspectives of acute pain assessment and management as well as perceived barriers and facilitators to pain management. Main results: In the scoping review, six publications on acute pain research in the African prehospital setting were identified, indicative of the paucity and immaturity of this research area. In the cross-sectional online survey, suboptimal levels of knowledge and attitudes regarding pain (58.01%) were found among emergency care providers, with gaps in all aspects of pain knowledge and attitudes of distrust in self-reported pain identified. The retrospective review recorded pain scores were documented in only 18.1% of the high acuity trauma patients reviewed, while moderate-to-severe pain (78.6%) was prevalent among those who had a pain score documented. Less than 3% of all trauma patients, and less than 8% of those with moderate-to-severe pain received analgesic medication, thus, suggesting less than ideal prehospital pain assessment and management practices. In the final qualitative study, six focus groups and one interview were conducted among 25 emergency care providers. Through content analysis five themes, namely: assessing pain is difficult in this setting; many factors affect clinical reasoning some unique to this (hostile) setting; basic and intermediate life support practitioners' reality of prehospital pain care; the emergency centre does not understand what we do, how we work, what it is like; and how can we do better; emerged from the data. Conclusion: Africa has a scarcity of prehospital pain research with current evidence mainly from South Africa while knowledge of prehospital pain assessment and management in the Western Cape, South Africa proved to be a significant gap. This gap appears to be underpinned by limited educational focus, lack of pain prioritisation in emergency medical services (EMS) organisations, lack of clear evidence-based prehospital pain clinical practice guidelines, and emergency care providers' indifference towards prehospital pain care. A joint approach from EMS organisations and educational institutions, coupled with clinical practice guideline development, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration between prehospital emergency care and emergency medicine, are required. Further research must focus on developing the body of African prehospital pain knowledge to inform clinical practice and advance quality prehospital pain care.

Abstract:
A survey of Texas public schools was conducted to determine the state of their emergency preparedness programs with particular interest in hazard analysis, disaster experience, chain of command of responsibility, personnel training, and inter-agency cooperation. A model emergency management plan was proposed. A stratified random sample of all Texas public school districts was drawn from the twenty education service center regions and university interscholastic league district size classifications. Of the 275 districts sampled, 214 questionnaires were completed for a 78% return. The strong return justified a generalization to the entire population.

Full text
Abstract:
The increasing world population is putting pressure on global food production. Agriculture must meet these growing demands by increasing crop yields. One phenomenon which prevents seedling emergence and damages crop yield is soil crusting. Understanding of soil crusting and the factors which influence it is fundamental to ensuring good crop production. An instrument which will test soil crust strength in a novel way, mimicking seedling growth, may lead to pre-emptive agricultural soil management which could increase crop production. This work details the process of design, construction and testing of an ascending penetrometer to measure soil crust strength. The full design process is discussed from concept generation and evaluation, using experimental methods and a multi-criteria decision making tool, through to final design configuration, specification, manufacture and testing. Traditionally, soil penetrometers measure soil strength by forcing a probe from the surface of the soil into the bulk soil below. To more accurately measure the direct impedance a seedling would experience a device should measure impedance from the bulk soil upwards and into the soil crust, mimicking what a growing seedling would experience. Results prove that the manufactured ascending penetrometer with a force resolution of 0.01N and displacement resolution of 0.0004mm is capable of detecting differences in soil crusts. At these resolutions and accuracy to 0.1N and 0.1mm excellent repeatability was achieved. The machine is therefore a useful and realistic tool for quantitatively comparing soil crusts in soil. It is hoped that being able to compare soil crust strength will lead to improved soil management techniques.

Abstract:
The rapid spread of the disease associated with the action of CAVID-2019 mediated the emergence of not only new phenomena, but also a group of new relationships associated with the action of prohibitions, restrictions, and the introduction of coercive measures. The author draws the attention of the scientific community to the legislative gaps that have arisen and to the fact that new phenomena have not been studied, described by legal science, and their characteristics are not given, which means that problems may arise in the practice of applying new phenomena, as well as the operation of prohibitions and restrictions. In conclusion, the relevant conclusions are drawn

Full text
Abstract:
Objective. To assess the comparative benefits and harms across three airway management approaches (bag valve mask [BVM], supraglottic airway [SGA], and endotracheal intubation [ETI]) by emergency medical services in the prehospital setting, and how the benefits and harms differ based on patient characteristics, techniques, and devices. Data sources. We searched electronic citation databases (Ovid® MEDLINE®, CINAHL®, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus®) from 1990 to September 2020 and reference lists, and posted a Federal Register notice request for data. Review methods. Review methods followed Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Evidence-based Practice Center Program methods guidance. Using pre-established criteria, studies were selected and dual reviewed, data were abstracted, and studies were evaluated for risk of bias. Meta-analyses using profile-likelihood random effects models were conducted when data were available from studies reporting on similar outcomes, with analyses stratified by study design, emergency type, and age. We qualitatively synthesized results when meta-analysis was not indicated. Strength of evidence (SOE) was assessed for primary outcomes (survival, neurological function, return of spontaneous circulation [ROSC], and successful advanced airway insertion [for SGA and ETI only]). Results. We included 99 studies (22 randomized controlled trials and 77 observational studies) involving 630,397 patients. Overall, we found few differences in primary outcomes when airway management approaches were compared. • For survival, there was moderate SOE for findings of no difference for BVM versus ETI in adult and mixed-age cardiac arrest patients. There was low SOE for no difference in these patients for BVM versus SGA and SGA versus ETI. There was low SOE for all three comparisons in pediatric cardiac arrest patients, and low SOE in adult trauma patients when BVM was compared with ETI. • For neurological function, there was moderate SOE for no difference for BVM compared with ETI in adults with cardiac arrest. There was low SOE for no difference in pediatric cardiac arrest for BVM versus ETI and SGA versus ETI. In adults with cardiac arrest, neurological function was better for BVM and ETI compared with SGA (both low SOE). • ROSC was applicable only in cardiac arrest. For adults, there was low SOE that ROSC was more frequent with SGA compared with ETI, and no difference for BVM versus SGA or BVM versus ETI. In pediatric patients there was low SOE of no difference for BVM versus ETI and SGA versus ETI. • For successful advanced airway insertion, low SOE supported better first-pass success with SGA in adult and pediatric cardiac arrest patients and adult patients in studies that mixed emergency types. Low SOE also supported no difference for first-pass success in adult medical patients. For overall success, there was moderate SOE of no difference for adults with cardiac arrest, medical, and mixed emergency types. • While harms were not always measured or reported, moderate SOE supported all available findings. There were no differences in harms for BVM versus SGA or ETI. When SGA was compared with ETI, there were no differences for aspiration, oral/airway trauma, and regurgitation; SGA was better for multiple insertion attempts; and ETI was better for inadequate ventilation. Conclusions. The most common findings, across emergency types and age groups, were of no differences in primary outcomes when prehospital airway management approaches were compared. As most of the included studies were observational, these findings may reflect study design and methodological limitations. Due to the dynamic nature of the prehospital environment, the results are susceptible to indication and survival biases as well as confounding; however, the current evidence does not favor more invasive airway approaches. No conclusion was supported by high SOE for any comparison and patient group. This supports the need for high-quality randomized controlled trials designed to account for the variability and dynamic nature of prehospital airway management to advance and inform clinical practice as well as emergency medical services education and policy, and to improve patient-centered outcomes.

The Challenges of Population Aging in the People's Republic of China. Asian Development Bank, July 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.22617/brf210280-2.

Full text
Abstract:
The population in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is aging rapidly, as the proportion of people aged 60 and above is expected to increase to 35% by 2050. While aging poses economic challenges, if managed well, it can generate new employment opportunities with the emergence of new professions related to elderly care. However, capturing these benefits require labor market reforms, higher public spending to finance long-term care and pensions, and policy support. This note presents policy recommendations to address identified socioeconomic implications of rapid population aging in the PRC, focusing on labor market changes, effective long-term elderly care, and measures to address the increasing old-age dependency ratio.
