Abstract: Dentists are at risk of experiencing a number of occupational hazards including physical hazards. Potential physical hazards include noise, lighting, ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, percutaneous exposure incident (PEI), and extreme temperatures. Efforts to control physical hazards based on the hierarchy of hazard control in the work of dentists are substitution, engineering, administration, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE).Keywords: physical hazards, hazard control hierarchy Abstrak: Dokter gigi merupakan salah satu profesi yang berisiko mengalami sejumlah bahaya akibat pekerjaan, termasuk bahaya fisik. Potensi bahaya fisik antara lain kebisingan, pencahayaan, radiasi ionisasi dan nonionisasi, percutaneous exposure incident (PEI), dan suhu ekstrim. Upaya pengendalian bahaya fisik berdasarkan hierarki pengendalian bahaya pada pekerjaan dokter gigi yaitu substitusi, rekayasa engineering, administrasi, dan penggunaan alat pelindung diri (APD).Kata kunci: bahaya fisik, hierarki pengendalian bahaya

Penyebab kematian terbesar pada usia sekolah dan  remaja di Indonesia adalah akibat kecelakaan transportasi, disamping penyakit demam berdarah dan tuberkulosis. Berdasarkan data dari Kepolisian, angka kematian karena kecelakaan lalu lintas di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta selama empat tahun terakhir terus meningkat. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk menurunkan angka kematian pada anak adalah dengan melakukan analisis kasus-kasus kecelakaan lalu lintas yang telah terjadi pada anak, sehingga kecelakaan yang sama tidak terulang kembali.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menurunkan angka kematian dan angka morbiditas anak korban kecelakaan lalu lintas di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Analisis deskriptif digunakan untuk mendeskripsikan kecelakaan lalu lintas yang terjadi pada anak, sedangkan Fault Tree Analysis digunakan untuk menentukan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi fatalitas dan morbiditas anak-anak korban kecelakaan lalu lintas.Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan kematian pada kecelakaan lalu lintas yang terjadi pada anak di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta adalah kendaraan lain yang terlibat kecelakaan, hazard, lalu lintas yang bercampur, minimnya sarana prasarana keselamatan, melebihi kecepatan, perilaku tidak tertib dan penggunaan alat keselamatan. Upaya menurunkan angka kematian dan morbiditas pada kecelakaan lalu lintas yang terjadi pada anak di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta adalah dengan pendekatan Hazard Control Hierarchy, yaitu dengan Elimination berupa mencegah anak mengendarai motor dan menghilangkan hazard di pinggir jalan, Substitution berupa pemanfaatkan jasa transportasi daring, Engineering Control berupa traffic calming, pemasangan median jalan, dan pembuatan lajur khusus sepeda motor,  Administrative Control antara lain dengan mengoptimalkan Forum Lalu Lintas dan Angkutan Jalan, dan Personal Protective Equipment dengan meningkatkan pemakaian alat keselamatan

Purpose: To improve radiation safety of medical staff and patients during diagnostic and treatment procedures with using of radionuclide radiation sources. Materials and methods: Staff working conditions have been analyzed and the potential for using of various personal protective equipment has been assessed based on the developed framework of personal protection of medical staff and patients at nuclear medicine centers. In accordance with methods described in the current Russian standards, specimens of personal protective equipment manufactured at Russian industrial plants and suitable for use by medical staff and patients at nuclear medicine centers have been tested. Results: Results of laboratory tests of new advanced high-performance personal protective equipment of various purposes for protection of medical staff and patients during diagnostic and treatment procedures with using of radionuclide radiation sources are provided. Training and information documents and guidelines have been developed, including “Study guide on personal protection during diagnostic and treatment procedures with using of radionuclides and ionizing radiation sources” for various departments of the Institute of Continuing Vocational Education, State Research Center – Burnasyan Federal Medical Biophysical Center of the FMBA of Russia, and “Guidelines on personal protection of medical staff and patients during diagnostic and treatment procedures with using of radionuclides and ionizing radiation sources”. Conclusion: Study guide and Guidelines on personal protection of medical staff and patients at nuclear medicine centers during diagnostic and treatment procedures with using of radionuclide radiation sources, as well as the draft of the Standard guidelines on delivery of free personal protective equipment to medical staff have been developed based on the results of work and studies.

The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has strained the healthcare system by rapidly depleting multiple resources including hospital space, medications, ventilators, personal protective equipment (PPE), clinical revenue, and morale. One of the most essential at-risk resources is healthcare providers. Healthcare providers have been overwhelmed as hospital systems have experienced local surges in COVID-19 patients. Compounding this is the fact that providers are more likely to contract COVID-19, which could sideline portions of an already taxed workforce.

Abstract Background: As endoscopists are at risk to get infected by the novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 during endoscopic procedures, the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) published recommendations regarding protection for the paediatric endoscopist and endoscopy suite staff. The aim of this survey was to investigate whether European paediatric gastroenterology centres applied the recommendations and how this extraordinary situation was handled by the different centres.Results: Twelve Paediatric European gastroenterology centers (from Belgium, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, and United Kingdom) participated. Nine centres (75%) screened their patients for a possible COVID-19 infection before the procedure, the same amount of hospitals changed their practice based on the ESPGHAN recommendations. 67% of the centres reduced the staff in the endoscopy suite, 83% of the units used FFP2/3 masks and protective goggles during the procedure and 75% wore waterproof gowns.Conclusion: The global situation caused by COVID-19 changed so rapidly, and hospitals had to react immediately to protect staff and patients and could not wait for guidelines to be published. Furthermore, uniform guidelines could not be applied by all European hospitals at a certain time point of the viral spread, as different regions of Europe were not only affected differently by COVID-19, but also had different access to personal protective equipment.

Medical personnel are at risk when handling victims of Hazmat incidents. Special clothing and respiratory equipment are required to protect them from absorbing these toxic materials through inhalation or through dermal contact. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) refer to both clothing and equipment used to shield or isolate individuals from chemical, physical and biological hazards that may be encountered at a hazardous materials incident.1,2 No single type of PPE can protect all hazards and incorrect use can cause harm to the wearer. In general, the greater the protection, the greater the associated risks.2 Therefore, the level of PPE selected should be the one that can provide adequate level of protection.
