Opis:
Objectives: The study presents data concerning occupational exposures among the staff of 5 hospitals in the Małopolska province in 2008–2012, taking into account the frequency and circumstances of exposure formation, occupational groups of hospital workers, as well as diversification of the reported rates in subsequent years between the hospitals and in each of them. An additional objective of the analysis was to assess the practical usefulness of the reported data for planning and evaluation of the effectiveness of procedures serving to minimize the risk of healthcare workers’ exposure to pathogens transmitted through blood. Material and Methods: Data were derived from occupational exposure registries kept by 5 hospitals of varying sizes and operational profiles from the Małopolska province from the years 2008–2012. Results: Seven hundred and seventy-five cases of exposure were found in a group of 3165 potentially exposed workers in the analyzed period. Most cases were observed in nurses (68%) and these were mainly various types of needlestick injuries (78%). Exposure rates with respect to all workers ranged from 2.6% to 8.3% in individual hospitals, but the differences in their values registered in the hospitals in subsequent years did not bear any statistical significance, in a way similar to the rates calculated separately for each occupational group. Conclusions: There was no upward or downward trend in the number of reported cases of exposure to bloodborne pathogens in the studied period in any of the hospitals. Statistically significant differences in the percentages of exposures were reported between individual hospitals in some years of the analyzed period, which confirms the need for registries in individual units in order to plan and evaluate the effectiveness of preventative measures.

Opis:
ObjectivesHealth care services in Poland are delivered by public and private providers. The aims of this study were to assess the attitudes towards private and public health care services in Poland and to identify differences between them, in the opinion of physicians.Material and MethodsA questionnaire-based survey was carried out among physicians attending mandatory courses delivered at the School of Public Health, the Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education in Warsaw, Poland. The questionnaire included 29 questions concerning private and public health care services.ResultsCompleted questionnaires were obtained from 502 physicians (67.7% females), aged 42.1±10.8 years, with a response rate of 77.2%. In the opinion of the surveyed doctors, the major advantages of private health care units, in comparison with public ones, are short waiting times for an appointment (88.2%), an efficient on-site service (78.6%) and convenient appointment times (75.7%). The respondents gave high scores to items such as relations with patients (p < 0.001), superiors (p < 0.001) and colleagues (p = 0.03) when working in private, rather than public, institutions. In the opinion of physicians, public health care institutions guarantee better employment conditions (44.4% vs. 13%; p < 0.001) and security (29.1% vs. 11.1%; p < 0.001) than private ones. The respondents did not observe any differences (p > 0.05) between public and private facilities in terms of the involvement of medical staff and infrastructure. There were significant differences (p < 0.001) in the perception of working conditions in public and private health care institutions depending on the medical education level and the place of primary employment. Conclusions: Among physicians in Poland, private medical institutions are perceived as better organized and granting faster as well as more comprehensive access to health care services when compared to public ones. Closing the gaps between working conditions in public and private units could encourage physicians to practice in the public health care sector.

Opis:
Grypa jest jedną z częstszych infekcji dróg oddechowych, zachorowania na nią występują we wszystkich grupach wiekowych pacjentów na całym świecie. Liczba zachorowań na grypę sezonową i zgonów z powodu jej powikłań jest znaczna w skali globalnej. Szczepienia, również przeciwko grypie, są istotnym osiągnięciem medycyny ostatniego stulecia, jednak problemem pozostaje zwalczanie grypy za pomocą szczepień ochronnych wśród personelu medycznego. Szczepienie personelu medycznego jest procedurą o udowodnionym bezpieczeństwie i skuteczności, zapewnia zapobieganie zachorowaniom wśród pacjentów. Mimo licznych rekomendacji eksperckich stan zaszczepienia pracowników medycznych pozostaje niski. W celu zwiększenia liczby zaszczepionych pracowników medycznych konieczne jest prowadzenie kampanii edukacyjnych, które mają na celu polepszenie stanu wiedzy personelu na temat grypy, jej powikłań, szczepień przeciwko grypie, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem ich bezpieczeństwa i skuteczności. Szczepieni pracownicy najczęściej decyzję o wykonaniu szczepienia motywują chęcią ochrony siebie oraz chęcią ochrony przed zakażeniem swoich pacjentów i ich rodzin. Z kolei wśród przyczyn nieszczepienia wymieniane są: brak czasu, błędne przekonania o nieskuteczności szczepienia, brak potrzeby szczepienia z powodu bagatelizowania choroby i jej powikłań, obawa przez niepożądanymi odczynami poszczepiennymi. Konieczne jest wdrożenie strategii mających na celu edukację personelu medycznego w zakresie stosowania szczepień przeciwko grypie w celu zwiększenia wyszczepialności przeciwko grypie w populacji pracowników medycznych. Med. Pr. 2013;64(1):119–129
Influenza is one of the most common respiratory diseases affecting people of all age groups all over the world. Seasonal influenza leads to substantial morbidity and mortality on a global scale. Vaccines are undeniably one of the most important health advances of the past century, however, managing influenza in working populations remains a difficult issue. Vaccination of health care workers (HCW) is an efficient way to reduce the risk of occupational infection and to prevent nosocomial transmission to vulnerable patients. Despite this, achieving high immunization rates among those professionals is a challenge. Knowledge and attitudes of healthcare providers have significant impact on the frequency with which vaccines are offered and accepted, but many HCWs are poorly equipped to make informed recommendations about vaccine merits and risks. Principal reasons for vaccination are the willing not to be infected and avoiding transmission to patients and the family. The main reasons for refusing is lack of time, a feeling of invulnerability to vaccination, conviction of not being at risk, of being too young or in good health. Misconceptions about influenza vaccine efficacy, like adverse effects, and fear of contracting illness from the vaccine are significantly associated with noncompliance with vaccination. Therefore, strategies to increase awareness of the importance of recommending influenza immunization among health professionals are required. Med Pr 2013;64(1):119–129

Opis:
Objectives: The risk of transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from patients with tuberculosis to health care workers (HCWs) has been well documented but little is known about the prevalence of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in Iranian HCWs. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of LTBI among HCWs by using IFNgamma-release assay and compare the results with those of tuberculin skin test (TST). Methods: Two hundred HCWs were evaluated with both TST and QuantiFERON-TB Gold In Tube test (QFT-GIT). The obtained data were analyzed by SPSS v.16 Software. Results: The participants were 73 males and 127 females with the mean age of 34.36±8.26 years. TST was positive in 105 cases (52.5%) and the QFT results were positive in 17 cases (8.5%). There was poor agreement between the two tests (53%, к = 0.115). Induration diameter of TST ≥ 10 mm and working duration ≥ 10 years were independent predictors for positive QFT (p = 0.004). Conclusions: Due to the fact that BCG vaccination has been administered routinely to all HCWs in Iran, specifi c tests should be introduced for high risk groups. QFT thus seems to be more effective for LTBI diagnosis than TST among HCWs with BCG immunization history.

Objectives: The association between depressive symptoms and psycho‑organisational work environment has been established in the literature. Some studies have evaluated depressive symptoms in healthcare workers, but little research has been carried out among nurse managers. The aim of the study is to evaluate the depressive symptoms prevalence among nurse managers' population and work environment factors. Material and Methods: A descriptive correlational research design was used. Data were collected from 296 nurse managers in five hospitals in the eastern area of France between 2007 and 2008. Health outcomes were evaluated by measuring depressive symptoms (CES-D scale), the exposure data by assessing psycho‑organisational work environment with effort-reward imbalance-model of Siegrist. Multiple logistic regressions were used to describe the strength of the association between depressive symptoms and effort-reward imbalance adjusted for personal and occupational characteristics of the nurse managers. Results: Among the nurse managers, a third had depressive symptoms, and 18% presented an effort-reward imbalance (ratio: ≥ 1). A significant association was found between depressive symptoms and effort-reward imbalance (OR = 10.81, 95% CI: 5.1-23, p < $10^{-3}$), and with esteem as a reward (OR = 3.21, 95% CI: 1.6-6.3, p < $10^{-2}$). Conclusion: In view of the hierarchical situation of nurse managers and their primary roles in hospitals, it is necessaryto take prevention measures to improve their work environment and health.

Occupational health practitioners deal with the questions of confidentiality, relation between the right to work and the right to health, between individual freedom and the risks other can run. An audit of pre-employment health assessment of health care workers, in the United Kingdom and in France, discussed the efficiency of pre-employment screening. Screening tests and medical examinations should not be used as a pretext to avoid implementing effective preventive measures. The pre-employment examination has mostly to be used for education of the future employees and for collection of baseline data. Appropriate procedures such as developing preventive policies, health promotion, and control of hazards in the work environment are efficient for the promotion of equal employment rights for women, older workers, or people with disabilities.

Objectives: Good ventilation is more important in hospitals than in many other buildings. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the condition, performance and modernity of ventilation systems on the perceived indoor air quality (IAQ) and the indoor air-related symptoms of hospital personnel. Materials and Methods: An inspection and evaluation graded on a 1 to 3 scale of the condition, performance, and modernity of the ventilation systems was carried out in ten central hospitals in Finland. The perceived IAQ and the related symptoms were collected by means of an indoor air questionnaire survey among the workers in these hospitals. Results: The condition, performance and modernity of the ventilation systems were good in 40% of the hospitals included in the research and poor in another 40% of them. In hospitals where the majority of the ventilation systems were assessed to be good, the prevalence of the indoor air-related complaints and symptoms was lower than in hospitals where the majority of the ventilation systems were assessed as needing extensive repairs. Conclusions: The condition and performance of the ventilation systems in hospitals had a significant impact on the perceived IAQ and the symptoms observed among the employees in Finnish hospitals. Therefore, it is important that hospital ventilation systems are maintained properly and regularly. Furthermore, they should be renovated, at the latest when their technical lifespan expires.

Opis:
Background Harmful chemicals are used in various forms from different sources in hospital settings. The standard gold method in risk control studies still determines exposure by personal or ambient measurements. In the absence of trained personnel, resources, or sufficient time, qualitative methods should be used to assess exposure. This study aims to compare quantitative and qualitative results of chemical risk exposure. Material and Methods Both qualitative (perceptions without monitoring data of the workers and experts) and quantitative perceptions (perceptions with monitoring data) were recorded. Two experts were asked to evaluate exposure intensity in pathology department workers, secretary workers, and cleaning workers. Occupational hygiene measurements were taken based on the occupational health and safety department risk assessment results, expert job analysis, and pilot study measurements. Results While most workers reported feeling highly exposed to chemical risks, the majority of experts reported medium-risk exposures and high-risk exposures. Three occupational hygiene measurements (3/45: 6.6%) exceeded the permissible time-weighted average, and the other results were within the acceptable range. Conclusions There was a significant difference between the estimated exposure and the measured exposure in hospital settings. A correlation was not found between workers’ perceptions of chemical risk exposure and the chemical risk levels measured in this study.

Objectives Health care workers, including dentists, are at the front line for acquiring blood-borne virus infections. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of hepatitis B, hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency viruses among Iranian dentists. Material and Methods The survey included 1628 dental health care workers who attended the 51st annual Congress of the Iranian Dental Association. Data on the risk of blood-borne virus transmission during health care and infection control practices were gathered from self-administered questionnaires. Sera were screened serologically by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The positive samples were examined by polymerase chain reaction (PRC) followed by direct sequencing. Results Six (0.36%) and 81 (5.0%) were positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and (anti-hepatitis B virus core antigen (anti-HBc), respectively. Only 1 (0.061%) was positive for anti-hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV). No case was positive for anti-human immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV). One case was diagnosed as being occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. One thousand five hundred thirty-five (94.3%) of participants had received at least 1 dose of HBV vaccine. One thousand three hundred fifty-nine (88.5%) contained hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) > 10 IU/ml, of whom 55 (4.0%) were anti-HBc positive, suggesting that they had been infected with HBV in the past. Anti-HBc positive cases had past histories of hepatitis, either their own or their spouses’. Individuals with inadequate anti-HBs levels (< 10 IU/ml) were significantly more prevalent among anti-HBc positive cases (p < 0.001). Conclusions The prevalence of blood-borne viruses among dental HCWs found in this study was lower than past reports from Iranian dentists and general population. The implementation of HBV vaccination together with improvement in infection control procedures has reduced the potential for risk infection among Iranian dentists.

Opis:
We analyzed occupational exposure to potentially infectious body fluids among health care workers (HCWs). Nurses were the most common exposed category of HCWs. In 73.6% cases needle sticks had been the reason of exposure. Recapping a needle was the cause of exposure in 6.9% accidents. Among 189 registered HCWs, 66 (34.9%) performed invasive procedures without any personal protective equipment. Prophylaxis with antiretroviral drugs was necessary in 43 (22.8%) cases. As many as 60.3% of exposure incidents to potentially infectious material result from non-compliance with the relevant recommendations. Continuous education and training is critically needed to prevent occupational exposure to blood-borne infections among health care workers.

Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, workload and physical and mental exhaustion became more extensive, especially among health care workers (HCWs). Material and Methods: This study involved 50 people aged 25 to 64, of whom 37 were women and 13 men. These HCWs were physiotherapists (48%), nurses (30%) and physicians (22%), all professionally active during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research was conducted between June and October 2020, using an on-line survey. The COPE, LBQ and ISI questionnaires were used. Results: Analysis of occupational burnout (LBQ) and its various aspects showed that the Deterioration of relations with clients (patients) was significantly higher among those with up to five years and between 15 and 24 years of experience than in the group with 25–35 years of experience. Sense of professional ineffectiveness and Disappointment were significantly higher (p %lt; 0.05) in the group with the most work experience. 30% of the medical workers surveyed obtained a result indicating subliminal insomnia (ISI) and 28% – clinical insomnia. Comparison of COPE and LBQ scores showed that Psychophysical exhaustion (LBQ) correlated negatively with Religious coping (p = 0.032). Deterioration of relations with clients (patients) (LBQ) correlated negatively with such strategies (COPE) as Active coping (p = 0.048), Planning (p=0.006), Positive reinterpretation and growth (p < 0.001). Sense of professional ineffectiveness (LBQ) correlated negatively with Acceptance strategies (p = 0.017) and Behavioral disengagement (p = 0.021). Disappointment correlated positively with the Positive reinterpretation and growth strategy (p = 0.024). Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the development of burnout amongst the HCWs surveyed, especially that related to psychophysical exhaustion, a sense of lack of effectiveness and a sense of disappointment. The sleep cycle was affected. Cognitive-behavioral oriented workshops are recommended when facing burnout.
Wprowadzenie: W trakcie trwania pandemii COVID-19 obciążenie pracą oraz fizyczne i psychiczne wyczerpanie były coraz większe, szczególnie wśród pracowników ochrony zdrowia (POZ). Materiał i metody: W badaniu wzięło udział 50 osób w wieku od 25 do 64 lat – 37 kobiet i 13 mężczyzn. Byli to: fizjoterapeuci (48%), pielęgniarki (30%), lekarze (22%), aktywni zawodowo w czasie pandemii COVID-19. Badanie przeprowadzono w okresie od czerwca do października 2020 r. w formie ankiety on-line. Wykorzystano kwestionariusze COPE, LBQ i ISI. Wyniki: Analiza wypalenia zawodowego (LBQ) i jego poszczególnych aspektów wykazała, że Brak zaangażowania w relacje z klientem (pacjentem) był istotnie wyższy w grupie ze stażem pracy do 5 lat oraz 15–24 lat niż w grupie ze stażem 25–35 lat. Poczucie braku skuteczności zawodowej i Rozczarowanie były istotnie wyższe (p %lt; 0.05) w grupie z najwyższym stażem pracy. 30% ankietowanych pracowników medycznych uzyskało wynik ISI wskazujący na obecność bezsenności podprogowej, a 28% bezsenności klinicznej. Analiza korelacji pomiędzy wynikami COPE a LBQ wykazała ujemną korelację pomiędzy Wyczerpaniem psychofizycznym (LBQ) a Zwrotem ku religii (p = 0,032). Brak zaangażowania w relacje z klientem (LBQ) ujemnie korelował z takimi strategiami (COPE) jak: Aktywne radzenie sobie (p = 0,048), Planowanie (p = 0,006), Pozytywne przewartościowanie i rozwój (p < 0.001). Poczucie braku skuteczności zawodowej (LBQ) było ujemnie skorelowane ze strategiami Akceptacji (p = 0,017) i Brakiem zaangażowania (p = 0,021). Rozczarowanie dodatnio korelowało ze strategią Pozytywne przewartościowanie i rozwój (p = 0,024). Wnioski: Pandemia COVID-19 miała wpływ na rozwój wypalenia zawodowego badanych pracowników ochrony zdrowia, zwłaszcza wypalenia związanego z wyczerpaniem psychofizycznym, poczuciem braku skuteczności i poczuciem rozczarowania. Wpłynęło to na cykl snu. W obliczu wypalenia sugeruje się warsztaty poznawczo-behawioralne.

Opis:
Infekcje wirusowe dróg oddechowych stanowią poważny problem zdrowotny i ekonomiczny na całym Świecie wysoka zakaźność tej grupy wirusów bezpośrednio wynika z łatwości transmisji, szczególnie w większych skupiskach ludzkich, takich jak placówki medyczne i oświatowe, duże zakłady pracy czy środki transportu. Ryzyko zakażenia dla tych grup zawodowych, a zwłaszcza pracowników ochrony zdrowia fest więc znacząco wyższe. Konieczne jest świadome stosowanie zasad profilaktyki czynnej (szczepienia ochronne), a w okresie wzrostu zapadalności również profilaktyki biernej (izolacja zakażonych, higiena). Niski poziom wyszczepialności przeciw grypie w populacji polskiej, w tym również wśród pracowników opieki zdrowotnej stanowi istotny problem, niosący znaczące ryzyko dla zdrowotności społeczeństwa i gospodarki kraju.
Respiratory viral infections pose a significant health and economic burden all over the world. Due to their easy transmission. respiratory viruses are highly infective, particularly in the larger human groupings, such as medical and educational facilities, larger industrial units and public transportation. Therefore, respective professional groups are regarded as the high risk population In those groups, in particular in medical staff, the premeditated proactive flu prophylaxis by means of regular immunization is strongly advised. A secondary prophylaxis, the strict isolation of infected patients must be introduced in health care facilities during flu season or epidemic. The unexceptionally low flu vaccination rate in Poland, both in general population and medical staff is of particular concern as a potential serious treat for society's state of health but also country economy.

Opis:
Pracownicy ochrony zdrowia w Polsce mają możliwość rozpoznania krzywdzenia dziecka i obowiązek zgłaszania swoich podejrzeń. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia wyniki badania przeprowadzonego wśród pracujących w Polsce lekarzy, pielęgniarek, ratowników medycznych i położnych. Pierwszym etapem badania były wywiady indywidualne (N = 14), a drugim – była ankieta internetowa (N = 506). Wyniki wskazują na podejmowane działania personelu medycznego w przypadku podejrzenia krzywdzenia dzieci, a także bariery i dobre praktyki w zgłaszaniu takich podejrzeń.
Health care workers in Poland have the opportunity to recognize child maltreatment and the obligation to report their suspicions. This article presents the results of a study conducted among doctors, nurses, paramedics and midwives working in Poland. The first stage of the study involves individual interviews (N = 14), while the second one – an online survey (N = 506). The results indicate the actions taken by medical personnel in the event of suspected child maltreatment, as well as barriers and good practices in reporting such suspicions.

Opis:
Wstęp: W artykule poruszony został problem zachorowań na wirusowe zapalenie wątroby typu B i C wśród pracowników ochrony zdrowia w latach 1999-2009 w województwie pomorskim. Celem pracy była analiza wieku i długości stażu zawodowego pracowników ochrony zdrowia w województwie pomorskim z potwierdzonym zawodowym zakażeniem wirusami HBV i HCV. Materiał i metody: W celu analizy wieku i stażu pracy pracowników ochrony zdrowia z zawodowym WZW w województwie pomorskim zgromadzono dane z 338 kart stwierdzenia choroby zawodowej. Wyniki: Na 338 stwierdzeń przypadków zawodowego wirusowego zapalenia wątroby w omawianym okresie 222 przypadki (65,7%) dotyczyły WZW B, a 116 (34,3%) - WZW C. Aż 301 przypadków (89%) zachorowań dotyczyło kobiet, a 37 (11%) - mężczyzn. Najwięcej przypadków zawodowego WZW ogółem występowało w grupach wiekowych 45-49 lat, 40-44 lata, 50-54 lata i 35-39 lat (średnia wieku dla całej populacji: 46,2 lat). Średni staż pracy dla całej badanej populacji wynosił 18,34 lat, średnia dla kobiet była mniejsza od średniej dla mężczyzn o 1,71 roku i wynosiła odpowiednio 18,15 vs 19,86. Najwięcej przypadków WZW wystąpiło u osób o stażu pracy: 15-19 lat, 20-24 lata i 25-29 lat (łącznie 50% przypadków). Wnioski: Uzyskane dane wskazują na odsuwanie w czasie rozpoczęcia procedury stwierdzenia choroby zawodowej przez pracowników. Krótki staż pracy potwierdza wyższe ryzyko infekcji wśród pracowników laboratoriów analitycznych i gabinetów stomatologicznych. Wykazano wyższe ryzyko zakażenia u osób z krótkim stażem pracy (o małym doświadczeniu zawodowym). Med. Pr. 2013;64(1):19–28
Background: In this paper we present the study of the incidence of hepatitis B and C among health care workers in the Pomorskie voivodeship in the years 1999-2009. The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between the certified occupational HCV and HBV infections and the age and duration of employment of infected health care workers. Material and Methods: To analyze the epidemiological situation of occupational hepatitis among health care workers in the Pomorskie voivodeship, the data from 338 occupational disease certificates were obtained. Results: Of the 338 certified cases of occupational viral hepatitis during this period 222 (65.7%) cases were diagnosed with hepatitis B, and 116 (34.3%) with hepatitis C. The total number of health care workers included 301 (89%) women, and 37 (11%) men. The majority of occupational hepatitis cases occurred in the following age groups 45-49, 40-44, 50-54 and 35-39 years. The mean age for the whole population was 46.20 years. The average duration of employment was 18.34 years, and it was lower for women than for men by 1.71 years (18.15 vs. 19.86). The cases of hepatitis mostly occurred during the periods of 15-19, 20-24 and 25-29 years of employment (50% of cases). Conclusions: These data suggest that the employees used to postpone the procedure of occupational disease certification. Short work experience confirms a higher risk of infection among employees of analytical laboratories and dental offices. The relationship between a higher risk of infection in workers and a shorter duration of employment (little work experience) was evidenced. Med Pr 2013;64(1):19–28
