Department of Biological Chemistry, Ariel University, 40700 Ariel, Israel. The currently roaring corona pandemic can be seen as a leading event in the deadly outbreak controlling the various health facilities and hospitals for years. The nosocomial microbial epidemic kills thousands of people every year in Israel around the world. Hygiene is the culprit for these fatal diseases [1]. And now it seems that the politicians, in macup to take care of the eradication of the disease-causing microbe, are taking advantage of the situation for the purpose of accumulating political capital and additional economic power. There is no escape from fighting the virus and tanning that bring about its reproduction, strengthening and transformation.

History Of

A 43-year-old male, with no previous history of mental illness, was diagnosed with coronary heart disease, after which he became acutely depressed and attempted suicide by ingesting an organophosphate pesticide. He was admitted to an intensive care unit and treated with pralidoxime, atropine, and oxygen. His coronary occlusion pattern required early coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. His family, apprehensive of a repeat suicidal attempt, requested surgery be performed as soon as possible. He recovered well from the OP poisoning and was mentally fit to express informed consent 2 weeks after admission. Seventeen days after poisoning, he underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and recovered uneventfully. Six years later, he remains in excellent health. We report this case because to the best of our knowledge there is no literature regarding CABG performed soon after organophosphate poisoning.

The article highlights the aspects of risk management in the information system. According to the analysis of the work of Russian and foreign scientists and world practices in the field of risk management, it is stated that there is a need to improve the effectiveness of risk management of information system and to develop a method for managing the risks of the information system. As a solution to the problem of effective risk management of the information system, there has been proposed a formalized procedure for managing the risks of the information system. The scientific novelty of this solution is the use of decision space and optimization space to reduce risks. This procedure allows to assess the damage, risk and effectiveness of risk management of the information system. The risks of the information system are determined and analyzed; a pyramidal risk diagram is developed. This diagram allows you to describe the relationship of risks with the components of the information system. The negative consequences to which these risks can lead are given. The analysis of methods and approaches to risk management has been carried out. Based on the results of the analysis, the methods GRAMM, CORAS, GOST R ISO / IEC scored to the maximum. The weak points of these methods and the difficulty of applying these methods in practice are described. The developed formalized risk management procedure to control the risks of information system can be used as management system’s element of the information security quality that complies with the recommendations of GOST R ISO / IEC 27003-2012. The prospect of further development of the research results is the development of management systems of risk of information system.

Childbirth Care

It is well established that clients’ past healthcare experiences influence their further use of that particular service, as well as their recommendations of that service. This also applies to the use of facility-based childbirth services which contribute to reducing maternal and infant mortality rates. This paper explores what mothers’ want from care in public health centres during childbirth. Knowing mothers’ expectations will contribute to improving their future childbirth care experiences. In this explorative qualitative study, 56 women were recruited from four public health centres. In-depth individual interviews were digitally recorded and transcribed in full, and subjected to content analysis. Themes emerged, revealing participants’ desire for both “respectful care” and “safe care”. From our findings, we posit that respectful care should be characterised by adequate communication between the healthcare provider and patient, and involvement of the patient in care decisions. Participants expected safe care, which results from health facilities with adequate resources. Health services generally concentrate on clinical care which aligns with mothers’ expectations of respectful and safe care. However, soft skills need much attention in nursing and midwifery education. There is also a need to orient midwives to a patient-centred approach to care that meets mothers’ expectations for childbirth care.

Location Hospital and Health Center in Bandar Lampung and the District Pesawaran not currently mapped by conventional or digital. And there is no data base that provides information about the location and distribution of hospitals and health centers in Bandar Lampung City, and the uneven number of health facilities to ensure the availability of health services for all citizens, by optimizing existing health care facilities. Contributions utilization of spatial studies in the health field is used for mapping and modeling of health in order to facilitate access, provision of efficiency and planning of health services in order to take policy related to determining the location of health facilities. The research method uses spatial model approach with descriptive research type and analysis through the use of Huff Model. The results of the regionization shows the coverage area of hospital services serving 33 points in the District Pesawaran and 24 point Population in Bandar Lampung with the spread of regionization is divided into 3 regions.
