RESUMOObjetivo: analisar os incidentes ocorridos durante o transporte intra-hospitalar dos pacientes na perspectiva dos condutores/maqueiros. Método: estudo quantitativo, exploratório, descritivo, realizado com 10 maqueiros de um hospital universitário. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de um formulário estruturado, com análise descritiva dos dados. Resultados: 60% dos trabalhadores relataram participação em cursos de capacitação; dentre os incidentes ocorridos durante o transporte intra-hospitalar, identificou-se a desconexão de O2 (oxigênio), de sonda, de equipo de soro, quebra de maca, paciente com parada cardíaca, crise de vômitos e quedas. Conclusão: os incidentes relatados pelos maqueiros, advindos do transporte do paciente, configuram-se em uma inconformidade com as diretrizes, pois colocam os trabalhadores em situação de vulnerabilidade a estes incidentes.

Scientific Statement

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic poses a major burden to the healthcare system in Egypt, and in the face of a highly infective disease which can prove fatal, healthcare systems need to change their management protocols to meet these new challenges. Main body This scientific statement, developed by the cardiology department at Cairo University, emphasized 6 different aspects that are intended to guide healthcare providers during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic. It highlighted the importance of dealing with all cardiac arrest victims, during the pandemic, as potential COVID-19 cases, and the use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) by health care providers during the procedure. It also stated that the CPR procedure should be done in a separate room with the door closed and that the number of providers present during the procedure should be limited to only those who are essential for patient resuscitation. It also stressed that family members and accompanying personnel of patients with possible COVID-19 should not be in the vicinity of CPR site. The statement also pointed out that CPR procedure should be done in the standard manner with precautions to minimize spread of infection to the staff and accompanying people. Early intubation was prioritized, and the use of rapid sequence intubation with appropriate PPE was recommended. For delivery of CPR for the prone ventilated patient, delivery of chest compressions by pressing the patient’s back, while a team prepares to turn the patient supine, was recommended. During intra-hospital transport, it was emphasized that the receiving intensive care unit (ICU) should be notified about the possibility of the patient being COVID-19 positive, so that appropriate infection control precautions are taken. Conclusion Cardiopulmonary resuscitation of cardiac arrest patients in the COVID-19 era poses a significant challenge, and all health care providers should deal with any cardiac arrest victim presenting to the emergency department as potential COVID-19 suspects and should use the appropriate PPE.

Medical Setting

Background: Effective communication between health care professionals and Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D&HH) patients remains a challenge. Literature regarding health professionals’ knowledge of the D&HH community and their barriers toward health care access is limited in Puerto Rico and suggests a need for research. Therefore, this descriptive study aims to evaluate future physician’s knowledge about the Deaf culture and community in a student cohort at San Juan Bautista School of Medicine (SJBSM), with the objective of guiding our results toward improving our curriculum. Methods: Medical students answered a survey to evaluate their knowledge of D&HH patients. The survey consisted of 3 parts testing awareness, exposure, and knowledge of the Deaf community. Responses from the Knowledge section were graded using an answer key, and correct answers were added to create an overall continuous sum score per participant, with higher scores meaning higher knowledge. Participants were also asked to write in possible issues deaf patients may face when hospitalized, apart from communication problems. All data were recorded and used for descriptive analysis. Results: 158 (68%) medical students participated. 63% reported exposure to D&HH people, and 80% were aware of the Deaf culture. 21% of students answered to have attended an American Sign Language (ASL) class, and 86% expressed interest in taking an ASL class. The overall percentage of correct answers from all the medical groups evaluated was 39%, with increasing percent knowledge as medical student year increased. The most frequently listed problem by respondents that deaf patients may face when hospitalized was dealing with an emergency in the hospital, such as the fire alarm. Conclusion: Students from clinical years (MSIII & MSIV) showed a better understanding of the Deaf culture than students in pre-clinical years (MSI & MSII). Nevertheless, the knowledge was limited in all groups. The information generated is not only valuable for our school but the healthcare community as well. The literature related to Deaf culture, particularly in the medical setting in Puerto Rico, is limited. Therefore, there exists a need to continue investigating ways to improve medical students’ education of the Deaf culture and community.
