Introduction: The Sars CoV2 virus has spread havoc claiming millions of lives in its wake and the world health Organization (WHO) had declared it as a pandemic in 2020. Though medical education and clinical training has always laid more emphasis on face – to- face teaching and physical skill based hands-on training, lately various e-learning tools have become popular as teaching pedagogy due to the restriction of social distancing in the current COVID scenario. Simulation based learning plays a very important role in adding to non-technical skills and management of patient as a whole. Simulation through remote mode has gained major precedence in these last few years especially since the onset of COVID. The present study seeks to know the effectiveness of a single remote simulation session amongst Emergency Medical Services (EMS) professionals Objective: To assess the effectiveness of remote simulation in the management of cardiac arrest amongst EMS professionals. Study Design: Cross Sectional Descriptive Study. Place of Study: Symbiosis Centre for Health Skills (SCHS), Pune India in September 2021. Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted in September 2021, amongst 80 Emergency Medical Professionals (EMPs) from Pune, India. American Heart Association (AHA) – Pre-course Self-Assessment Questionnaire for the year 2020 was utilized for the study to assess ECG interpretation competency among EMS Professionals before and after a remote simulation session. Results and Discussion: Time is of essence in a cardiac arrest scenario as any delay can cause exponential rise in the mortality rate. The COVID 19 era has severely restricted bedside learning and on site simulation. A healthy alternative has emerged in the form of remote simulation, which can ensure continuity of learning along with mitigation of the disease spread. Conclusion: The findings of the study are encouraging and should be followed up with larger sample size and multiple remote simulation sessions to gain further insight into the effectiveness of this unique tool. The COVID 19 era has severely restricted bedside learning and on site simulation. A healthy alternative has emerged in the form of remote simulation, which can ensure continuity of learning along with mitigation of the disease spread.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Sudden cardiac death is one of the main issues worldwide, with more than 700.000 deaths annually. It is strongly believed that the implementation of "Kids Save Lives" project in schools can change this situation. The World Health Organization endorsed the ‘Kids Save Lives’ project in 2015 in order to reduce mortality. The first chain of survival concerns the recognition of cardiac arrest with chin lift and head tilt manoeuvre of the victim and the feel- look- listen approach. Purpose Τo evaluate the level of theoretical knowledge, as far the recognition of cardiac arrest is concerned in Greek secondary school students before and after the "Kids Save Lives" program. Material – Method: Data collection took place on the academic periods of 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 and was performed in secondary schools of Thessaly’s region. A total of 4922 students (51,9% female, mean age 14.2 years) participated on the "Kids save Lives" program according to the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and World Health Organization (WHO) statement. A 12-point questionnaire was answered by the students before and after the "kid saves lives" program, while practical skills were evaluated on manikins by experienced ERC Basic Life Support (BLS) Instructors. The knowledge of the recognition of cardiac arrest is investigated in this subgroup analysis Results The training improves significantly the theoretical knowledge regarding the recognition of cardiac arrest, with the percentage of correct answers being 58,3% and 96,1%,before and after the course respectively (p < 0.001). In the practical part of the program, almost all of the participants (98.9%) could recognize the correct position near the victim and 91% perform chin lift manoeuvre and recognize cardiac arrest. Conclusions The overall results reveal that the "Kids Save Lives" program can play a important role in improving the theoretical knowledge and  the practical skills of Greek students towards towards the recognition of cardiac arrest and indicate the necessity of implementation in a greater scale nationwide.

Abstract Background: Persons with HIV (PWH) are more likely to develop hypertension and cardiovascular disease than the HIV-negative population. The new hypertension guidelines by the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) lowered the definition of hypertension from a systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) of ≥140/90mmHg to ≥130/80, respectively. This study was aimed at determining the prevalence and factors associated with hypertension in PWH using the new hypertension diagnostic criteria.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. We recruited 226 antiretroviral treated PWH attending routine visits. Socio-demographic, health, and clinical data including BP readings were collected. Interviewer-structured questionnaires adapted from the World Health Organization Stepwise approach to Surveillance (WHO STEPs) and the international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) were used to collect data. Statistical evaluations were employed to elucidate relationships between hypertension and all response variables.Results: The prevalence of hypertension using the old and new guidelines was 16% and 42%, respectively. Factors significantly associated with increased and reduced odds for developing hypertension after adjustments in multivariate logistic regression were age, body mass index (BMI), employment status, fasting blood sugar (FBS) and table salt consumption, respectively (p<0.05 for all). Using the new AHA/ACC criteria for hypertension shifted the prevalence from 16% (old criteria) to 42%.Conclusion: The major risk factors associated with hypertension in PWH were increasing age, BMI and FBS. We recommend inclusion of FBS in routine measurements in PWH. The AHA/ACC new guidelines should be re-enforced in low-cost settings to increase the treatment of hypertension among PWH.

Abstract Aim According to the World Health Organization, approximately 810 pregnant women die every day as a consequence of peripartum complications. A large proportion of deaths happen in developing countries. Peripartum cardiac arrest is a rare event that must be treated immediately. It is important to consider the differential diagnoses in order to save lives. Methods In this review, we discuss a differential diagnosis of cardiac arrest according to the BEAU-CHOPS scheme of the American Heart Association in the relation to the case report of our 40-year-old G5/P3 patient who went into cardiac arrest during cesarean delivery. Results Typical differentials for cardiac arrest during labor are bleeding, embolism, anesthetic complications, cardiovascular diseases, eclampsia, and sepsis. All of them were considered and ruled out in this patient. In the end, we suspect that physiological cardio-inhibitory reflexes triggered by sudden profound hypovolemia after placental separation along with the patientʼs risk factors, especially obesity and maternal age, and the administration of spinal anesthesia all potentially contributed to the cardiac arrest. Conclusions This review highlights that the cardiac arrest during labor can be triggered by the multifactorial etiology, but firstly the typical differential diagnosis needs to be excluded.

71 Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) defines palliative care (PC) as an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families facing life-threatening illness. However, the public may be unaware of this definition. We assessed the Canadian public’s knowledge and attitudes toward PC before and after being provided the WHO definition. Methods: We engaged a health research firm to distribute a cross-sectional survey to members of the Canadian public. Eligible participants were >18 years of age, could comprehend English or French, and were currently residing in Canada. We assessed participants’ knowledge of and attitudes towards PC before and after reading the WHO definition of PC. Results were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test. Results: Of 1518 participants (52% female), 45% (676/1518) stated they knew what PC was and could explain it, 32% (488/1518) knew about PC but could not explain it, 13% (198/1518) had heard of PC but did not know what it was, and 10% (156/1518) had never heard of PC. Of those who had heard of PC, 58% (784/1362) agreed PC is the last resort when other treatments have failed, 64% (877/1362) agreed PC means being close to death, and 67% (914/1362) believed PC meant being at “the stage that you can no longer take care of yourself”. Before reading the WHO definition, 56% (774/1362) agreed/strongly agreed that referral to PC would make them feel afraid; after reading the definition, this percentage was reduced to 41%, and degree of fearfulness was reduced in 46% (p<0.0001). Fifty-nine percent (898/1518) stated they did not know, prior to reading the WHO definition, that PC could be involved early in the course of illness, and 45% did not know PC could be provided together with other treatments aimed at prolonging life. Eighty-nine percent (1344/1518) felt the PC definition helped them to better understand what PC is, and 91% believed that Canadians should be made aware PC can be included early in the course of a patient’s illness. Conclusions: More than half of respondents had limited knowledge of PC and believed it was synonymous with end-of-life care. Provision of the WHO definition improved understanding and allayed fears of PC. Public educational initiatives may improve understanding and increase acceptance of PC.

Permasalahan kesehatan pada remaja yang menduduki persentasi terbesar dibanding yang lainnya adalah gangguan menstruasi. Gangguan pada siklus menstruasi (durasi perdarahan yang lebih lama dan ketidakteraturan siklus) disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, salah satunya ialah stres. Stres diketahui sebagai faktor-faktor penyebab (etiologi) terjadinya gangguan siklus menstruasi. Stres akan memicu pelepasan hormon kortisol dimana hormon kortisol ini dijadikan tolak ukur untuk melihat derajat stres seseorang. Hormon kortisol diatur oleh hipotalamus otak dan kelenjar pituitari, dengan dimulainya aktivitas hipotalamus, hipofisis mengeluarkan FSH dan proses stimulus ovarium akan menghasilkan estrogen. Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Pelayanan Kesehatan Peduli Remaja (PKPR) dibawah naungan World Health Organization (WHO) menyebutkan bahwa permasalahan remaja di Indonesia adalah seputar permasalahan yang mengenai gangguan menstruasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan tingkat stres dengan siklus menstruasi pada mahasiswa kebidanan tingkat I di STIKES Kuningan tahun 2019. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan Cross Sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah mahasiswa kebidanan tingkat I di STIKES Kuningan tahun 2019 sebanyak 41 responden. Analisis yang digunakan analisis univariat dan bivariat dengan menggunakan uji Rank Spearman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan tingkat stres dengan siklus menstruasi pada mahasiswa kebidanan tingkat I di STIKES Kuningan, dari 41 responden terdapat 18 (44%) responden yang mengalami stres sedang, pada siklus menstruasi yang tidak teratur terdapat 25 (61%) responden. Hasil uji rank spearman,  yakni p value = 0,01 (<0,05) yang ada hubungan antara tingkat stres dengan siklus menstruasi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian penulis dapat menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat stres dengan siklus menstruasi pada mahasiswa kebidanan tingkat I di STIKES Kuningan tahun 2019. Bagi institusi Pendidikan khususnya Program Studi Diploma III Kebidanan diharapkan dapat membuat sebuah program edukasi mengenai manajemen stres pada remaja yang bisa dilakukan secara rutin di luar jadwal perkuliahan.
