Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A paramedic or health care provider is a health professional that provides rapid response, emergency medical assessment, treatment and care to critically ill patients1. The word Paramedic is a combination of two words; para means "along the side of" and medic means "physician", so a paramedic works as an extender of the physician. He works under the direct supervision of a medical expert and is considered a “delegated practitioner”.
Paramedical service is crucial for the effective running of the modern health care system and is the lifeline of the health sector2. Paramedics are trained, equipped and required to give emergency services not just in form of first aids, but may also include medical attention that may not warrant taking the patients to the hospital3. Over the past decade, paramedic scope of practice and clinical responsibilities has expanded significantly. Advanced clinical interventions previously carried out by physicians such as ultrasound, thoracotomy and endotracheal intubation are now becoming part of the health care professional. This concentrated experience in the use of highly technical, mechanical and electronic equipment and their availability to the patient make such personnel indispensable as assistants to physicians4.
The dynamic nature of paramedics in terms of clinical practice demands continuous recognition and evaluation of the literature. Active research is essential for the translation of evidence into practice and education and is an integral part of the modern paramedic programs offered within higher education institutions. Thus there is an urgent need to launch a peer review journal in the field of paramedics that will publish high standard scientific articles and will be available to researchers and institutes. The scope of this journal includes both basic and clinical research including original articles, reviews, clinical case presentations and case reports. It aims to contribute to a better understanding of the disease and provide a reference for health professionals and researchers.

Abstract The profession of paramedic is a recent profession functioning in Poland since 1992. Over those 27 years the training, the role and responsibilities given to paramedics have undergone many changes. Initially, paramedics were trained in two-year colleges (post-secondary schools) and were not qualified to administer medical emergency treatment (medical rescue procedures) at the place of accidents. At present, they are educated at universities and are qualified to apply emergency medical treatment by themselves, inter alia to ensure the safe transport of the injured person in a life-threatening emergency, provide mental support to the injured, and carry out health education and promotion. Moreover, they are the core personnel of the State Medical Rescue System (PRM). The goal of the study was to present the history of the establishment of paramedical profession and its current role and responsibilities in the PRM.

The papillomaviridae viral family includes HPV. When it comes to female sexually transmitted diseases, the genital tract is the primary site of infection for genital type HPVs, which are further divided into high- and low-risk subgroups depending on the likelihood that they will cause cancer of the genital tract. High-risk HPV strains 16 and 18 cause cervical cancer. Sexual contact or skin-to-skin contact is the primary mode of transmission of HPV. To assess the degree of Practice among a sample of paramedical workers concerning the Human Papillomavirus and Cervical Cancer. Five hospitals and 25 primary health care centers in the Al-Najaf governorate were studied in this cross-sectional observational descriptive cross-sectional research. Starting on December 19th, 2021 and concluding on April 18th, 2022, data was gathered for four months. According to the results of the present research, which included (five hundred) Paramedical employees aged 20-59 years, the age group with the largest proportion (66.4%) was that of 20-29 years. Whereas, in terms of gender, the largest proportion of women (64.6 percent). Almost all paramedics work in urban areas. In addition, almost half of the participants came from medical institutions, accounting for 51.6 percent of the total, while just 2.4 percent were graduates of secondary schools. Only 2.4% of the paramedical staff had any kind of education or training on HPV or cervical cancer. Excellent practice evaluations for the Human Papillomavirus and cervical cancer were much higher among paramedical providers (79 percent). Most of the paramedics who were evaluated for their practices addressing cervical cancer and the human papillomavirus (HPV) received good grades. Health authorities, social groupings, and non-governmental organizations should work together to communicate information about the human papillomavirus and cervical cancer to the general population. In order to educate and sensitize medical professionals about HPV screening technologies and the most current screening and treatment guidelines, conduct educational initiatives.

Introduction: Ultrasonography (US), performed in the Emergency Department (ED) by Emergency Physicians, is well established. Educational studies have shown some promise in training paramedics in US use. We have developed and piloted a novel curriculum for paramedic US education. Methods: Based on an informal needs assessment, an US curriculum for paramedics was developed to include: Basic principles, Focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST), cardiac, and vascular access. Participants included ED-based and pre-hospital paramedics including all paramedics with critical care training who routinely perform vascular access and procedural sedation within our ED. Comparisons were made using paired non-parametric tests (GraphPad). Results: Participants (N=9) were provided pre- reading materials prior to completing a 6-hour course, consisting of a mix of didactic and practical sessions with live models and vascular access phantoms. Each module was introduced with a 30 minute didactic session, led by an Emergency Physician trained in US, followed immediately by a 1 hour hands-on session lead by either an Emergency Physician or an Emergency Medicine Resident at a learner to instructor ratio of 3:1. At the end of the course, participants were asked to complete a short 10 minute survey that included (1) an assessment of the course quality with regard to preparatory material and course content/delivery (4 point Likert scale; excellent, good, fair, poor); (2) self reported US knowledge pre and post course on a scale of 1-10 (10 high, 1 low); (3) general yes/no questions related to the future of ECCU paramedical and (4) a subjective written section for additional comments. All participants rated the content favourably: 97% scoring it as excellent, and 3% as good. The participants median self-reported US knowledge score increased from 2/10 (IQR 2-3) to 8/10 (IQR 7.25-8; p=0.009) post- course. All comments from the text field were positive in nature. Conclusion: We report a paramedic US course curriculum, which when piloted resulted in high learner satisfaction and a high rate of self reported improvement in US knowledge. Further study will include an assessment of knowledge acquisition and practical performance. Future modifications in our curriculum will be based on needs assessment and may include additional modules.

Introduction: Telemedicine technology is no longer a futuristic concept and is increasingly integrated into health care. As the studies on attitudes toward telemedicine focus mainly on physicians and medical students, there is a need to evaluate the views of students in other fields of paramedical sciences. Thus, the present study aims to evaluate the awareness of and attitude towards telemedicine among the Paramedical Sciences students of Varastegan Institute for Medical Sciences in Mashhad.Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in May 2022. A standard questionnaire was used to evaluate the awareness of and attitude towards telemedicine. This questionnaire included 14 questions, including demographic information (5 questions), information related to exposure to telemedicine (5 questions), interest in telemedicine (2 questions), and plans for future use (2 questions). A proportional per-size sampling method was used for paramedical sciences students.Results: A total of 81 participants responded to the research questionnaire. Most of the students (70.4%) stated that they had seldom been exposed to telemedicine technology. However, 50 students (62.6%) agreed and strongly agreed that exposure to telemedicine in the classroom is an important educational aspect. Also, 37 students (45.7%) strongly agreed that telemedicine needs face-to-face education. A significant difference was observed between the field of study and interest after experiencing telemedicine among the students (p=0.04). Also, there was a significant difference between the academic semester and the level of interest in telemedicine among the students (p<0.001).Conclusion: The results of this survey show that the majority of paramedical sciences students still lack the experience of being exposed to it, despite the increasing development of telemedicine. Since the majority of them are interested in using telemedicine as an educational aspect, future studies are recommended to help the education and experience of exposure to telemedicine among paramedical science students.

Introduction: Diabetes is on the rise in sub-Saharan Africa, and particularly in Senegal where the latest prevalence estimates are around 3.4%. The region of Saint-Louis is a special case in terms of prevalence, since it far exceeds the national average, with more than 10% of the local population in 2011, or 30,000 to 40,000 cases. This epidemiological evolution of diabetes in the department of Saint-Louis is the direct consequence of many causes, including the lack of continuing medical education for paramedical staff. Material and methods: Our work proposes to return to the need for continuing medical education of paramedical staff in the department of Saint-Louis, through two surveys carried out with the diabetic people: a base line survey carried out before the training, and an end line survey after the diabetes training. The general objective is to assess the skills of health workers and their effectiveness in the management of diabetes and its complications, as well as the quality of diabetes management. Results: We found that the level of knowledge of nurses in charge of health posts and other paramedical staff is relatively heterogeneous. The average level obtained for right answers (66.76% during the base line survey and 82.4% during the end line survey) reflects the lack of continuing education concerning the diabetic disease in the department of Saint-Louis. Conclusion: The assessment of the knowledge of nursing staff in the department of Saint-Louis to which we proceeded is edifying. It is part of a logic of improving knowledge of diabetic disease and its complications. It shows that in the peripheral health structures, the need for continuing medical education is real.

Background: India needs around 2,77,000 donations annually to perform 1,00,000 corneal transplants. To enhance the procurement of corneal donations further, raising the level of public education on eye donation was the most important first step. The Govt. of India under the 11th 5-year plan envisages eliminating avoidable blindness completely by 2020. The aim and objective of the study was to compare the awareness of eye donation and willingness to donate eyes among medical and paramedical students.Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out among 400 final year MBBS students and interns and also among the final year B.Sc. nursing students and at Hi-Tech Medical College and Hospital, Bhubaneswar from August 2018 to September 2018.Results: The study participants were in the age group of 18-25 years. While 100% medical students had heard about organ donation, 85.5% of paramedical students heard about organ donation. Positive opinion regarding donation of eye post death was got from all the medical students as against 85% of paramedical students. More than 1/3rd of the study participants in both the groups were willing to donate eyes and know more regarding the same and also had a fair idea regarding shortage of donors in India.Conclusions: Awareness of eye donation is better in medical students compared to paramedical students, preferably due to the exposure and study curriculum. Most of the students in both groups were inclined to pledge for eye donation. Awareness regarding eye donation will form the prime base for the elimination of avoidable blindness in India.

Considering the effect of paramedical students' health literacy on community health promotion, this study aimed to determine the level of health literacy and its associated factors in paramedical students.Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 310 paramedical students during a two-month period from January to March 2021. The data collection tool was the Health Literacy for Iranian Adults (HELIA) questionnaire. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the questionnaire was designed online, and its link was provided to students.Results: Among the participants, 247 (79.7%) cases were female, and 63 (20.3%) cases were male with a mean age of 21.16 ± 1.97 years. According to the results, 3.9% of the students had inadequate health literacy, 37.3% had not so adequate health literacy, 46.6% had adequate health literacy, and 12.2% had excellent health literacy. The results of ANOVA and t-test showed a significant association between the mean total health literacy score of students and their age, gender, and semester (P <0.05).Conclusion: This study findings showed that more than half of the participating students had adequate and excellent levels of health literacy. Since paramedical students are promoters of health in the community, more attention should be paid to the education of these individuals. Therefore, it is necessary to empower them in the field of health literacy.

Background: Health care workers are constantly associated with generation, segregation and disposal of biomedical wastes. Knowledge, attitude and awareness of BMW management among HCWs are the three determinants used to evaluate the effective functioning of BMW management system of the Institution. This study aims to detect the degree of Knowledge, attitude and awareness of BMW management among HCWs in a dental hospital.Methods: This study included 90 HCWs from three groups (dentists, interns, and paramedical staffs), each group comprising of 30 individuals. They were instructed to tick their response in the questionnaire containing 22 questions and were graded as good, average and poor based on individual score.Results: Order of decreasing knowledge and attitude seen among the three groups was dentists followed by interns and paramedical staff. Decreasing order of awareness was postgraduates, interns and laboratory technicians with same score, followed by nurses and sanitary staffs. In our study, 88%, 86.7% and 69.33% of participants had above average KAA values respectively.Conclusions: Doctors and interns had better understanding of BMW management than other Paramedical staff members. Sanitary workers were highly ignorant regarding BMW management. So a continuing medical education program on BMW management should be conducted on yearly basis to train and update newly appointed as well as existing HCWs.

Background: There are many factors in determining language proficiency among university students. Identifying these factors can help the teaching and learning process to move forward more quickly and effectively.
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the relationship between social, cultural, and linguistic factors and the language proficiency of 221 medical and paramedical students at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences to identify if these factors contribute to language proficiency as an effective variable in students’ communication, academic performance, and quality patient care.
Method: The authors administered a questionnaire on these factors' role and a proficiency test. Then, they ran Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analyses to determine the relationship and effects of such factors concerning language proficiency.
Results: The t-test revealed a statistically meaningful difference between medical and paramedical students concerning both mean scores of proficiency and cultural factors. The results indicated only social and cultural factors statistically correlated with paramedical students’ proficiency. Furthermore, none of these factors built any relationship or exerted any effects on the proficiency of medical students.
Conclusion: The results implied that educational policymakers should consider the existing differences between university students of different fields since they come from different sociocultural and linguistic backgrounds that have affected the academic stance in which they are studying. Moreover, the findings necessitate encouraging the policymakers and university lecturers to enhance their sociocultural competencies to adapt and fulfill the needs of such students and highlighting the roles of the family's socioeconomic positions through some workshops since the role of the family is an important variable in determining the extent to which a learner has acquired a specific cultural competence.

Graphically presented algorithms are presently used in many settings worldwide for the diagnosis, management, and teaching of curative health services. There is potential as well for using such algorithms for teaching and counseling in the preventive services, especially in family planning services. The employment of paramedical or lesser trained workers in family planning or management requires careful attention to skill development in all phases of training. The use of graphically presented algorithms may simplify this process of skill development. In addition, the algorithms provide guidelines for use in the field by those providing family planning services, and for program management and supervision. Examples of algorithms used in paramedical services are presented. The development of two algorithms are discussed in detail, 1) an algorithm for introduction of contraceptives during lactation, and 2) an algorithm for supervision of data collection.

The Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) was used to measure dental anxiety among the study population. The responses were assessed by 5-point likert scale ranging from 1 to 5. The level of anxiety was categorized into lowly anxious (5–11), moderately anxious (12–18), and severely anxious ≥19. Out of 1500 students enrolled, 1024 students (342 males and 682 females) completed and returned the questionnaire having response rate of 68.26%.Results. There was a statistically significant difference (P<0.001) when the mean dental anxiety scores were compared among the three faculties and dental students had lowest mean score (11.95 ± 4.21). The fifth year (senior) dental students scored significantly (P=0.02) lower mean anxiety score as compared to the first dental students (junior). The students were anxious mostly about tooth drilling and local anesthetic injection.Conclusions. Dental students have a significantly low level of dental anxiety as compared with medical and pharmacy students. Incorporation of dental health education in preuniversity and other nondental university curriculums may reduce dental anxiety among the students.

Following the outbreak of coronavirus, various crises occurred in different parts of the world, including Iran, and negatively affected various aspects of the life of all human beings. Meanwhile, the educational system has faced many problems at all levels. The presence of large crowds of students in educational centers is dangerous and therefore most educational centers in the pandemic period use distance learning and online. Meanwhile, medical and paramedical students need clinical education, and providing more courses virtually will not be as effective as clinical education. What is certain is that in addition to the cases mentioned above regarding the negative effects of the COVID-19 crisis, the social effects of the spread of the virus on the country's education have not been separated from this rule. What is important is to study its effects on the education of medical sciences and its unique feature as health education, educating students, and providing their professional services to society, in which any quantity and shortcoming can have dangerous consequences for society and health. In the current situation and following the outbreak of the Coronavirus, we are facing more than ever the challenge of empowering graduates who do not meet the health needs and current challenges of society.

A large percentage of students (52.80% boys , 47.19% girls) responded that the respiratory tract is the primary route by which COVID-19 infections are spread, followed by the students from NHRDA and CMC. Most of the students from all colleges received satisfactory scores on the COVID-19 knowledge test. There was negative association of score of knowledge between 1st, 2nd and 3rd year students of CMC and MTA (p=0.96 and p=0.11) respectively. However, there was positive association of score of knowledge between 1st, 2nd and 3rd year NHRDA students (p=0.01). Conclusion: The majority of college students studying at different colleges had satisfactory knowledge, while a moderate number of students had poor and just a few had good knowledge scores on the COVID-19. In order to increase knowledge, various kinds of strategies, regulations, and initiatives should be accomplished and implemented effectively throughout the lower to higher level education.
