It has been reported that suboptimal communication represents the largest source of preventable error during acute medical care. Because a significant proportion of ongoing care relies heavily on verbal communication, it is incumbent on clinicians to develop, hone and maintain these skills in the interests of their patients and, at the same time, contribute to a more reliable and patient-focused health care system. This review briefly discusses why communication matters, practical strategies from both inside and outside clinical medicine, the implications of poor translation and the state of medical communication in Canada.

Due to the development of modern resuscitation during anesthesia and surgical operations, methods of intensive therapy have been introduced in clinical medicine. Efforts, through cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), to give any patient in need the chance to survive resulted in systems of emergency medical services (EMS). A short account of the present state of CCM in the CSSR is given here. The principle of “differentiated patient care” is outlined, with accepted definitions of resuscitative and intensive care. The terminology of different steps in CCM is offered for discussion.In Czechoslovakia, the Constitution of 1960 proclaims the right to health care for every citizen. Medical care is provided to all citizens free of charge by the State. The State took over the responsibility for planning, organizing and providing medical care on the highest attainable contemporary level. In the last ten years, special programs have been launched in order to cover most actual health areas such as neonatal and maternal health care, cardiovascular disease programs, oncology, geriatric care, and, last but not least, the care of patients with acute organ systems' failure.

Introduction. The study of public opinion as the basis for strategic planning of the activities of medical institutions is more relevant than ever, as it allows finding ways to solve the problems of ensuring the availability and satisfaction of citizens with medical care. Purpose. Comparative assessment of the availability of primary health care based on the results of a sociological study of public opinion and data from the Unified Medical Information and Analytical System of the City of Moscow (UMIAS). Material and methods. To study public opinion, the practice of population survey was used, which was conducted through direct interviewing with filling out questionnaires of visitors to Moscow polyclinics and the method of questioning doctors based on a questionnaire developed by researchers. To analyze the data, the authors used general scientific methods of cognition, including the dialectical method, a systematic approach, logical correspondence and harmonization, detailing and generalization. As part of the study, the index value of the patient loyalty to the medical institution (MI) was calculated according to Net Promoter Score (NPS) method as the difference between the share of the “Promoters” group and the share of the “Critics” group in the total number of responses. Results and discussion. The established correlations indicate the opinions of doctors and citizens to coincide and the UMIAS data on the issue of assessing the accessibility of admission of level 1 doctors for citizens. Based on the results of a sociological survey, the number of dissatisfied patients is mainly affected by managing medical care and its availability. The study confirmed that the higher the availability of an appointment with a level 1 doctor, the lower the number of visits the doctor on duty. Conclusion. The conducted research has shown the practicality of an integrated approach to evaluating the activities of medical organizations based on the results of public opinion research and UMIAS data.

Background: Every day, relatively large amount of potentially infectious and hazardous wastes is generated in the health-care hospitals and facilities around the world. Indiscriminate disposal and improper management of waste generated in health care facilities causes serious threat to environment and to human health that requires specific treatment and management prior to its final disposal.Methods: Cross-sectional study was conducted among 241 health care personnel working at Mahatma Gandhi Memorial hospital, Warangal. Data was collected and pre and post analysis was done using a pre-validated self-administered questionnaire. Data was entered in MS Excel and analysed using SPSS 17 software.Results: Among 241 respondents, 33.2% were sanitary staff, 35.3% are nursing staff and 31.5% are nursing students. Only 35.7% of participants has knowledge regarding the colour of the bag into which expired antibiotics are discarded and 45.2% of participants were aware of the colour of the bag in which IV bottles, gloves were discarded. Scoring for 10 was done in both pre and post-test and post test scores were found to be higher and there is significant increase in level of knowledge of biomedical waste management rules in study population in post-test analysis (p<0.001).Conclusions: Training program on the waste management in the health sector has significant effect in increasing knowledge of the healthcare personnel.

In this paper, we explore what the market for medical services and products could look like if the state completely withdrew from the area of medical care. In section 1, we demonstrate that medical services would be purchased mainly through direct payments and medical insurance. We analyse two models of medical insurance: guaranteed renewable insurance and health-status insurance. Other types of insurance that may emerge on the market are also discussed. In section 2, we exam-ine how the privatisation of the health-care system would affect the prices of medical services. We analyse fundamental problems of the state-run health care and discuss how they contribute to small-er supply and higher prices of medical services. We then describe how the introduction of market mechanisms would allow to solve many of these problems. We argue that internalisation of the costs of medical care in a free market order would create strong economic incentives for individuals to take better care of their health, and we contrast this with the state-run health care in which these costs are externalised. In section 3, we explore how medical services could be obtained by individuals without sufficient funds. In section 4, we discuss how the quality of medical care could be ensured without the help of the state. We argue that competition between service providers would be the main guarantor of quality. We also identify mechanisms that would lead to spontaneous emergence of a system of private medical licencing.
