ICD-11 Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Complex PTSD Among Hospital Medical Workers in China: Impacts of Wenchuan Earthquake Exposure, Workplaces, and Sociodemographic Factors

BackgroundPrevious studies address posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following disasters as a public health issue. However, few studies investigate the long-term effect of disaster exposure on PTSD among hospital medical workers (HMWs).ObjectivesThis study aimed to study the prevalence of ICD-11 PTSD and complex PTSD (CPTSD) among exposed and non-exposed HMWs 11 years after the Wenchuan earthquake in China, to identify the factors associated with PTSD and CPTSD scores, and to examine the factor structures of PTSD and CPTSD models.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered online questionnaire. Two thousand fifty-nine valid samples were collected from four hospitals in 2019. Descriptive statistical analysis, multivariate regression models, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were performed.ResultsThe prevalence of PTSD and CPTSD was 0.58 and 0.34%, respectively. The unexposed group reported higher PTSD and CPTSD scores than the exposed group. The type of workplace and marital status were significantly associated with the PTSD and CPTSD scores of HMWs. The CFA results indicate that both the correlated first-order model and the correlated two-layer model were a good fit to explain the structure of PTSD and CPTSD.ConclusionThese findings suggest that few HMWs who were exposed to the Wenchuan earthquake suffered from PTSD or CPTSD 11 years following the disaster. However, psychological support was still necessary for all HMWs, especially for unmarried HMWs who were Working in smaller hospitals. Further research is required to analyze mental health status using ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD to provide ongoing evidence to help HWMs cope effectively with the challenges of future disasters.

Differences in Coping Strategies and Help-Seeking Behaviours among Australian Junior and Senior Doctors during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Background: Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, hospital medical staff (HMS) have faced significant personal, workplace, and financial disruption. Many have experienced psychosocial burden, exceeding already concerning baseline levels. This study examines the types and predictors of coping strategies and help-seeking behaviours utilised by Australian junior and senior HMS during the first year of the pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey of Australian frontline healthcare workers was conducted between 27 August and 23 October 2020. Data collected included demographics, personal and workplace disruptions, self-reported and validated mental health symptoms, coping strategies, and help-seeking. Results: The 9518 participants included 1966 hospital medical staff (62.1% senior, 37.9% junior). Both groups experienced a high burden of anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and burnout. Coping strategies varied by seniority, with maintaining exercise the most common strategy for both groups. Adverse mental health was associated with increased alcohol consumption. Engagement with professional support, although more frequent among junior staff, was uncommon in both groups. Conclusions: Junior and senior staff utilised different coping and help-seeking behaviours. Despite recognition of symptoms, very few HMS engaged formal support. The varied predictors of coping and help-seeking identified may inform targeted interventions to support these cohorts in current and future crises.

ANALISIS KETIDAKLENGKAPAN REKAM MEDIS RAWAT INAP DI RUMAH SAKIT

ABSTRAK Latar Belakang : Analisis ketidaklengkapan pengisian rekam medis sangat diperlukan, guna mengetahui seberapa besar angka ketidaklengkapan pengisian catatan medis (AKLPCM) di RSU Mitra Medika pada tahun 2018. Ditemukan bahwa dari seluruh berkas rekam medis pasien pulang dari rumah sakit terdapat 13.279 berkas terdapat ketidaklengkapan pengisian sebanyak 7,66% (1.017) berkas. Salah satu diantaranya adalah ketidaklengkapan pengisian resume medis, ketidaklengkapan pengisian identitas pasien sebanyak 5 formulir (16,6%), anamnese 4 (13,3%), pemeriksaan fisik 2 (6,6%), diagnosa 1 (6,6%), pemeriksaan penunjang 4 (13,3%) dan tindakan medis sebanyak 2 formulir (6,6%). Tujuan : Tujuan dari literature review ini adalah untuk untuk menganalisis Ketidaklengkapan Rekam Medis Rawat Inap Di Rumah Sakit. Metode : penelitian ini menggunakan desain literature review yaitu uraian tentang teori, bahan dan isi penelitian yang mengkaji tentang ketidaklengkapan rekam medis rawat inap di rumah sakit berdasarkan literature yang di review. Hasil : berdasarkan 8 jurnal di jelaskan bahwa Pengisian ketidaklengkapan rekam medis dari hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa tidak lengkap masih tinggi pada angka 100% menandahkan kejadian ketidaklengkapan masih sering terjadi dan tidak sesuai dengan standart kelengkapan berkas rekam medis. Kesimpulan : Mengadakan monitoring evaluasi minimal 1 minggu sekali, membuat tim monitoring kelengkapan berkas untuk memantau pelaksanaan rekam medis di rumah sakit Kesimpulan : Mengadakan monitoring evaluasi minimal 1 minggu sekali, membuat tim monitoring kelengkapan berkas untuk memantau pelaksanaan rekam medis di rumah sakit Kata Kunci : Ketidaklengkapan rekam medis, Rawat Inap, Langkah meningkatkan kelengkapan ABSTRACT Background: incompleteness analysis of medical record-charging is essential, in order to see how high the incompleteness of medical records (aklpcm) in medika's partner-general general in 2018. It was found that from all the records of patients returning from the hospital there were 13,279 files of this incompleteness charging 7.66% (1,017) of the files. One is the incompleteness of medical resumes, the incompleteness of the patient's 5 forms (166%), anamnese 4 (13.3%), physical 2 (6.6%), diagnostic 1 (6.6%), 4 (13.3%) and 2 forms (6.6%) medical action. Purpose: the purpose of this literature review is to analyze the incompleteness of hospital hospital medical records. Method: the study USES the design literature review, which is a description of theory, the material and content of the study that deals with the incompleteness of medical hospital records based on the literature contained in the review. Results: according to 8 journals explain that the application of incompleteness of medical records from research shows that incomplete remains high at 100% indicating an occurrence of incompleteness is still frequent and incompatible with the standard for a medical record file. Conclusion: install a minimum evaluation monitoring once a week, creating a file monitoring team to monitor medical records at the hospital. Keywords: of incompleteness medical records, inpatient treatment, step up completeness

Adverse reactions following Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine among ”Prof. Dr. Alexandru Obregia” Clinical Psychiatry Hospital medical staff

From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, health organizations and medical scientists worked hard to develop a vaccine that can protect against COVID-19. Given the increased interest of the general population in the side effects occurring after being vaccinated, the aim of this study is to illustrate their frequency and their sub­jec­tive intensity. The ”Prof. Dr. Alexandru Obregia” Cli­ni­cal Psy­chia­try Hospital medical staff members who re­ceived the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine between January 2021 and March 2021 were questioned about the ad­verse reactions after the first and the second dose. The ques­tion­naires were anonymous. A total of 201 persons answered the ques­tion­naire after the first vaccine dose, and 150 persons answered after the second shot. 91% of the respondents experienced at least one local reaction at the injection site after the first dose, compared to 87.33% after the second dose. The most frequent local reactions were represented by pain at the site of injection and difficulty moving the arm. Systemic reactions were more frequently reported after booster shot, compared to the first dose (p=0.002): 49.8% of the subjects had systemic reactions after the first dose, while 66.7% experienced them after the second one. The most frequently reported systemic reactions were drowsiness, fatigue, myalgia, headache, low-grade fever and chills. The intensity of adverse effects was mild to moderate, with 72% of the subjects considering the intensity of adverse reactions after the second shot as being greater than after the first shot. No anaphylactic reactions or other complications or severe side effects were mentioned in the analyzed group.
