Abstract:
Background: Asthma is a prevalent disorder in the Gulf region. However, available data concerning asthma control and patients' perception with regard to their disease are still insufficient. Objective: To investigate patients' perception and behavior with regard to the asthma-related burden, the level of asthma control, and asthma management in three Gulf countries. Methods: This study presented a subset analysis of the Asthma Insights and Management survey about the asthma burden and management in the Gulf region and Russia. In this subset analysis, we retrieved the data of the patients from Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait. Results: The current survey's population was composed of 452 patients. One hundred fifty-four patients (34.1%) rated themselves as having poorly controlled asthma, whereas 60.3% of the patients perceived their asthma as completely or well controlled. However, only two patients (0.4%) had controlled asthma according to the global asthma guidelines criteria for asthma control. Most of the patients (67.7%) reported that their asthma got worse when outdoors. Almost 70% of the patients on daily control plus a quick relief regimen reported that their asthma got worse when they were outdoors. Over the past 12 months, 95 patients (21%) reported asthma exacerbation. More than half of the included patients experienced an asthma attack that stopped their activities, whereas 54.2% of the patients were forced to leave work or school due to an asthma attack, and 53.1% had to cancel an appointment or had to go to bed due to the severity of the attack. With concern to asthma management, only 30.5% of the patients were given a lung function test for the assessment of their asthma. A written action plan for asthma treatment was developed by the physician or the practice nurse for only 21.7% of the patients. Conclusion: In the Gulf region, asthma exerts a substantial burden on patients who are affected. Such a burden significantly impacted patients' quality of life.

Abstract:
Aim This project evaluated the effectiveness of screening brief intervention and referral for treatment (SBIRT) in primary care in Abu Dhabi to manage patients with problematic substance use. This study aimed to determine whether: (i) training primary care physicians on the SBIRT model increased the identification of patients using substances at a harmful, hazardous or dependent level; (ii) training improved physicians’ knowledge, attitudes and beliefs in self-efficacy in managing substance use. Background Substance use is increasing in the United Arab Emirates yet there has been no formal primary care intervention. SBIRT was considered an appropriate model given its endorsement by the WHO. Methods A controlled trial (two intervention and two matched control clinics) was undertaken. Intervention physicians (n=17) were trained in SBIRT. Physicians’ attitudes were measured before and after training and eight months after implementation. Target recruitment was 900 patients. Inclusion criteria were: consenting UAE national, ⩾18 years, using the ‘walk-in’ primary care clinic. Patient data was collected by physician-administered questionnaire. Prevalence of drug use was measured through electronic patient records. Findings A total of 906 patients were screened, aged 18–82 years and 496 (55%) were female. Of these, 5.7% reported use of amphetamine, 3.9% alcohol, 3.3%, sedatives, 1.7% opioids and 1.1% cannabis. In all, 21 people had a moderate/high ASSIST score and received a brief intervention, but did not attend follow-up; three high-risk people were referred for specialist treatment. Physicians’ attitudes towards patients with problematic substance use and providing treatment improved after training, but returned to pre-training levels after eight months. Including the 21 individuals identified from intervention screening, the prevalence of substance use increased to 0.208% (95% CI 0.154–0.274), significantly higher than in control clinics (P<0.001). In conclusion, physicians were generally positive towards SBIRT and SBIRT increased recorded drug related conditions at a practice level. However, poor patient attendance at follow-up requires investigation.

Abstract:
Objectives: This study aimed to examine acceptance levels of and attitudes towards telemedicine among users in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and assess associations between perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU), attitudes towards use (ATU) and behavioural intention of use (BIU) in relation to telemedicine technology. Methods: This cross-sectional study used a simple random sampling design to obtain an appropriate sample from throughout the UAE. The technology acceptance model (TAM) and Rogers’ diffusion of innovations (DOI) theory were applied as the conceptual basis for this study. An Arabic/English version of the questionnaire was distributed via email to physicians and nurses, members of the public (including patients), healthcare directors and information technology professionals. Data were collected from 1st March to 30th August 2019 and analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Results: A total of 330 participants were included (response rate: 85.7%). BIU and PU were considered important elements of TAM in the adoption of telemedicine services compared to the other variables. The association between PEOU (beta = 0.033, P = 0.692), PU (beta = 0.034; P = 0.679) and ATU (beta = 0.055; P = 0.421) in relation to telemedicine were positive but not significant. However, BIU was found to be a strong significant predictor of actual usage (beta = 0.224; P = 0.003). Conclusion: This study confirms TAM’s applicability in the adoption of telemedicine services in the UAE. The results show that users’ perceptions were significantly related to their behavioural intention to use telemedicine. Factors influencing telemedicine technology are likely to vary as technology acceptance in other geographical areas may differ from the sample presented here.

Abstract:
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated disease characterized by mild localized plaques to severe plaques involving any part of the skin; it has a pronounced effect on patients’ quality of life. In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), there are limited local guidelines for the management of patients with psoriasis in daily clinical practice. Objectives: The study aimed to develop consensus statements for the evaluation and management of moderate-to-severe psoriasis in the UAE. Methods: To develop consensus statements, the Emirates Dermatology Society set up advisory board meetings in which local key opinion leaders (KOLs), including dermatologists from the UAE, participated. A targeted literature review was conducted to review current international and regional guidelines on the management of psoriasis, based on which the statements were formulated. A final consensus on each statement was reached based on collective agreement among the KOLs. Results : Consensus statements were generated with the intention of supporting physicians in clinical decision-making with respect to the classification of disease severity, treatment options including biologic and non-biologic systemic therapies, transitioning and adjusting of systemic therapies, and monitoring and management of psoriasis in special populations. Conclusion: These consensus statements could provide useful, practical guidance on the diagnosis and management of patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis and would cater to the needs of physicians in the UAE.

Abstract:
Ensuring drug safety among the patients is the main domain of pharmacovigilance activities worldwide. A pharmacovigilance system was established in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 2008. Research evidence reflects that the current system is lacking in active participation from patients, and also, the inadequate role of healthcare professionals is anticipated. In this context, it is pertinent to know the general public’s understandings and their patterns of safe use of medication, which are unexplored areas in Dubai, UAE. The current study aimed to explore the public views, attitudes, and experiences toward medication safety, and to explore key factors enhancing the safe use of medications among the public in Dubai. This study adopted a qualitative approach and face-to-face, 14 in-depth interviews with public individuals, selected purposively using the snowball sampling technique. The interviews were conducted in different places in Dubai recorded and transcribed verbatim and thematically analyzed for data analysis. Reporting of adverse drug reaction was not well-known among all the participants. Public views towards safe use of medicines were limited to the side effects of the consumed medicines only, and to a lesser extent to the inappropriate indication and dosage. Most of the participants mentioned that gaining knowledge about the side effects of the prescribed drug was the main reason for reading the patient information leaflet. Quite a few participants have experienced side effects while consuming their medicines and they were unsure of how to deal with the situation. The current research also reflected the lack of proper communication between pharmacists and physicians in managing drug safety issues. Conclusively, the current research revealed gaps in public views regarding medication’s safety, which consequently may impact their attitudes during the course of medication use. Efforts need to be strengthened to enhance positive views and attitudes of the public towards medication safety and ADR reporting in the UAE.

Abstract:
In order to successfully translate the scientific models of genetic testing and pharmacogenomics into clinical practice, empowering healthcare workers with the right knowledge and functional understanding on the subject is essential. Limited research in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have assessed healthcare worker stances towards genomics. This study aimed to assess healthcare workers’ knowledge and attitudes on genetic testing. A cross-sectional study was conducted among healthcare workers practicing in either public or private hospitals or clinics as pharmacists, nurses, physicians, managers, and allied health. Participants were recruited randomly and via snowball techniques. Surveys were collected between April and September 2019; out of 552 respondents, 63.4% were female, the mean age was 38 (±9.6) years old. The mean knowledge score was 5.2 (±2.3) out of nine, which shows a fair level of knowledge. The scores of respondents of pharmacy were 5.1 (±2.5), medicine 6.0 (±2.0), and nursing 4.8 (±2.1). All participants exhibited a fair knowledge level about genetic testing and pharmacogenomics. Of the respondents, 91.9% showed a positive attitude regarding availability of genetic testing. The top identified barrier to implementation was the cost of testing (62%), followed by lack of training or education and insurance coverage (57.8% and 57.2%, respectively). Building upon the positive attitudes and tackling the barriers and challenges will pave the road for full implementation of genetic testing and pharmacogenomics in the UAE. We recommend empowering healthcare workers by improving needed and tailored competencies related to their area of practice. We strongly urge the stakeholders to streamline and benchmark the workflow, algorithm, and guidelines to standardize the health and electronic system. Lastly, we advocate utilizing technology and electronic decision support as well as the translational report to back up healthcare workers in the UAE.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Medical professionalism has received increased worldwide attention, yet there is limited information on the applicability and utility of established Western professionalism frameworks in non-Western nations.Background We developed a locally derived consensus definition of medical professionalism for the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which reflects the cultural and social constructs of the UAE and the Middle East.Objective We used a purposive sample of 14 physicians working in the UAE as clinical and education leaders. This expert panel used qualitative methods, including the world café, nominal group technique, the Delphi method, and an interpretive thematic analysis to develop the consensus statement.Methods The expert panel defined 9 attributes of medical professionalism. There was considerable overlap with accepted Western definitions, along with important differences in 3 aspects: (1) the primacy of social justice and societal rights; (2) the role of the physician's personal faith and spirituality in guiding professional practices; and (3) societal expectations for professional attributes of physicians that extend beyond the practice of medicine.Results Professionalism is a social construct influenced by cultural and religious contexts. It is imperative that definitions of professionalism used in the education of physicians in training and in the assessment of practicing physicians be formulated locally and encompass specific competencies relevant to the local, social, and cultural context for medical practice. Our goal was to develop a secular consensus statement that encompasses culture and values relevant to professionalism for the UAE and the Arab region.Conclusions
