  One of the parameters for determining the quality of health services in the hospital is data or information from good and complete medical records. Medical records are an important part of helping the implementation of service delivery to patients at the hospital. Standards relating to medical records in SNARS Edition 1 are in the group of hospital management standards, namely Medical Record Information Management (MIRM) regarding medical record document processing including provision, filling of medical records and reviewing medical records. This research method is descriptive with the method of observation. When this research was conducted in July 2020 at the Imelda Hospital Worker Indonesia Medan. The population taken was 705 medical record documents while the sample in this study was 87 medical record documents. Based on the results of the study, in the review the accuracy of returning medical record documents was 57.4% and 42.5% were incorrect. Readability review of ER assessment as much as 63.2%, assessment of Inpatient as much as 56.3%, CPPT as much as 60.9%, approval for action as much as 77%, reports of anesthesia as much as 68.9%. 3 forms of completeness review are complete, namely Education Assessment, rejection and education form (100%). Suggestions in this study are that review officers must be more assertive to remind every doctor or other medical personnel to pay attention to the accuracy of the restoration, the legibility of medical record files and the completeness of medical record documents. As well as regularly socializing the elements of the MIRM 13.4 assessment.

ABSTRACT Objective: To propose a reflection on the labor practice in a psychiatric hospital, emphasizing Brazil. Method: A theoretical-reflexive study with an analogy between work in a psychiatric hospital and the literary work “Alice in Wonderland.” Results: The complex movement of the psychiatric hospital’s history induces a discordant work process and demands from the worker a personified performance of a world of “wonders.” Final considerations: This manuscript contributed to the equalization of knowledge about the work in the psychiatric hospital, aiming to minimize the conceptual distortions identified and expose the worker’s real situation in these institutions.

Abstract Background The Hadassah Medical Organization operates two hospitals in Jerusalem. During the COVID-19 pandemic it made an administrative decision to operate one hospital as a COVID-19 treatment hospital (CTH) and to have the second function as a non-COVID-19 treating hospital (NCTH) offering general medical services. The purpose of this study was to assess how this decision affected hospital worker anxiety. Methods From April 27 to May 1, during the COVID-19 pandemic in Israel, while the country was under lock-down, an electronic questionnaire survey was carried out among hospital workers of the CTH and NCTH. The questionnaire includes personal demographics and attitudes about COVID-19 and assesses present anxiety state using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Adults (STAI-S) validated questionnaire. A STAI-S score of ≥45 was considered to represent clinical anxiety. Results Completed questionnaires were received from 1570 hospital employees (24%). 33.5% of responders had STAI-S scores ≥45. Multivariable regression analysis showed that being a resident doctor (odds ration [OR] 2.13; 95% CL, 1.41–3.23; P = 0.0003), age ≤ 50 (OR, 2.08; 95% Cl, 1.62–2.67; P < .0001), being a nurse (OR, 1.29; 95% CL, 1.01–1.64; P = 0.039), female gender (OR, 1.63; 95% CL, 1.25–2.13; P = 0.0003) and having risk factors for COVID-19 (OR, 1.51; 95% CL, 1.19–1.91; P = 0.0007), but not hospital workplace (p = 0.08), were associated with the presence of clinical anxiety. 69% of the responders had been tested for COVID-19, but only nine were positive. CTH workers estimated that the likelihood of their already being infected with COVID-19 to be 21.5 ± 24.7% as compared to the 15.3 ± 19.5% estimate of NCTH workers (p = 0.0001). 50% (545/1099) of the CTH workers and 51% (168/330) of the NCTH workers responded that the most important cause of their stress was a fear of infecting their families (p = 0.7). Conclusions By multivariable analysis the creation of a NCTH during the COVID-19 pandemic was not found to be associated with a decrease in the number of hospital workers with clinical anxiety. Hospital worker support resources can be focused on the at-risk groups identified in this study.

ABSTRACTObjectiveWe estimated that how many hospital workers in the United States (US) might get infected or die in the COVID-19 pandemic. We also estimated the impact of personal protective equipment (PPE) and age restrictions on these estimates.MethodsOur secondary analyses estimated hospital worker infections in the US based on health worker infection and death rates per 100 deaths from COVID-19 in Hubei and Italy. We used Monte Carlo simulations to compute point estimates with 95% confidence intervals for hospital worker infections in the US based on the two scenarios. We computed potential decrease in infections if the PPE were available only to those involved in direct care of COVID-19 patients (∼ 30%) and if workers aged ≥ 60 years are restricted from patient care. Estimates were adjusted for hospital workers per bed in the US compared to China and Italy.ResultsThe hospital worker infections per 100 deaths were 108.2 in Hubei and 94.1 in Italy. Based on Hubei scenario, we estimated that about 53,640 US hospital workers (95% CI: 43,160 to 62,251) might get infected from COVID-19. The Italian scenario suggested 53,097 US hospital worker (95% CI: 37,133 to 69,003) might get infected during the pandemic. Availability of PPE to high-risk workers could reduce counts to 28,100 (95% CI: 23,048 to 33,242) considering Hubei and to 28,354 (95% CI: 19,829 to 36,848) considering Italy. Restricting hospital workers aged ≥ 60 years from direct patient care reduced counts to 1,985 (95% CI: 1,627 to 2,347) considering Hubei and to 2,002 (95% CI: 1,400 to 2,602) considering the Italian scenario.ConclusionWe estimated significant burden of illness due to COVID-19 if no strategies are adopted. Making PPE available to all hospital workers and reducing exposure of hospital workers above the age of 60 could have significant reductions in hospital worker infections.VISUAL ABSTRACTFigure 1.Estimated number of COVID-19 related infections among healthcare workers in the United States based on Hubei and Italian scenarios
