Background. Medical emergencies can be distressing for any dental professional, whether in a dental practice, hospital or other sites. Objectives. To assess the knowledge and awareness of dental practitioners towards medical emergencies and its management in Bhubaneswar. Material and Methods. In this cross-sectional investigation, a self-administered questionnaire which included demographic details and 19 questions regarding knowledge about medical emergencies, was disseminated to a random sample of 183 dentists working in their private dental clinic set up in Bhubaneswar. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results. Total sample size was 183, out of which 79 (43.17%) were males and 104 (56.83%) were females. The mean age was found out to be 30.7 ± 5.38 years. Practically 96% of the practitioners were not certain enough to deal with the emergency conditions at dental office. Around 67% had not attended any workshop on emergency training. It was amazing to observe that larger part (90%) of the experts didn't possess first aid kit at their dental office. In instances of handling emergency situation at the dental chair no statistical significance (p>0.05) with respect to age and gender was found. Conclusion. This investigation showed that hypothetically dental professionals had better knowledge on medical emergencies yet at the same time they were not equipped efficiently to manage the same at their workplace.

Opis:
Introduction: Fellow trekkers are often the first responders to their comrades in remote settings. Not everyone undertakes First Aid (FA) training when travelling to remote settings away from comprehensive healthcare, whether travelling independently or in a group. The syllabus of standard urbanised FA courses does not fully cover the needs of such trekkers (ie altitude illnesses). We evaluated the FA and emergency knowledge of trekkers en route in the remote Nepalese Himalayas.Material and methods: A questionnaire about FA, trekking emergencies and water hygiene knowledge was completed by a cohort of 453 trekkers passing through Manang (3,519 m), Nepal, who volunteered their participation. A previously validated questionnaire consisted of 20 multiple choice questions (each using a five-point Likert scale) was used, followed by a subjective self-assessment of 17 key topics using a 5-point rating scale from very good to unsatisfactory knowledge. Demographic data including FA and climbing experience was also collected.Results: The participants generally showed a poor knowledge in FA and trekking emergencies, even though 20.8% had some occupational medical training. In total 59.5% of possible answers were answered correctly. On average each participant managed to answer only one out of 20 questions (5.4%) completely correct. The most unsatisfactory results concerned the following topics, each with only 2.4% correct answers: hypothermia/resuscitation, rescue strategies and rip fractures. The best results were for HACE 33.8%, cranio-cerebral injury 33.6%, angina pectoris/heart attack 31.8% and hypovolemic shock 28.7%. The majority of participants had very limited experience of climbing mountains, rock climbing or ice climbing.Conclusions: This study provides essential data identifying deficiencies in standard FA courses that are targeted for urban settings, and not for trekkers in a remote setting far away from comprehensive health care and rescue. There is a need to develop readily accessible FA curriculums specific to trekkers that would provide education on preventative care prior to, during, and after treks, and to improve their knowledge of medical care of trekking injuries and emergencies.

Background. The second wave of Novel Coronavirus disease (COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2) is proving more disastrous than the first because of the new mutant stains. Under these circumstances, vaccination is the only effective solution that can save millions of lives across the globe. Objectives. The present study was conducted to assess the attitude and acceptance/willingness of health care professionals (medical and dental) towards COVID-19 vaccine. Materials and Methods. An online questionnaire survey was conducted among medical and dental professionals working in different hospitals of two states of India. A total of 520 subjects constituted the final sample size. A self-constructed questionnaire (divided into 2 parts) containing 12 questions was administered to obtain information from the subjects regarding their attitude and willingness towards COVID 19 vaccine. Statistical analysis was done using chi-square test and multiple liner regression analysis. Odds ratio with 95% CI were also generated. Statistical significance was set at p≤0.05. Results. Majority of the subjects (67% of dental and 73% of medical) had full confidence on the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine. Willingness to get vaccinated was shown by 63% of subjects and 65% had positive attitude towards vaccine. Some subjects (45.5% dental and 48.4% medical) showed concern regarding unforeseen effects of the vaccine. Willingness to get vaccinated was 3.45 higher in subjects who were involved in COVID duties. Subjects giving less preference to natural immunity over vaccine showed more willingness (OR: 2.98) towards getting the vaccine. Conclusion. The findings of the study showed that acceptance and attitude of subjects regarding COVID 19 vaccine was suboptimal as there were various factors which contributed towards subjects’ hesitancy to get vaccinated. There is an utmost need to address various issues regarding vaccine safety to promote high uptake.

Opis:
The need to rapidly respond to health emergencies has generated various institutional initiatives to identify their location, through mapping. This study employs a qualitative-exploratory method, based on the daily monitoring of eight Ebola epidemics between 2013 and 2021, to make an assessment of the usefulness of maps created specifically for Ebola. The results show that at least 14 organisations produce maps in the face of emergencies and epidemics such as Ebola. Consequently, it has been possible to design a search plan to aid in the monitoring of emergencies and to design an Ebola map with data obtained from these organisations and the initiatives they promote, which confirms the usefulness of these data sources and maps.

Opis:
Pożary, miejscowe zagrożenia i alarmy fałszywe to podstawowa klasyfikacja zdarzeń rejestrowanych przez dyżurnych Stanowisk Kierowania Komendantów Powiatowych (Miejskich) Państwowej Straży Pożarnej (PSP). Autorzy przeprowadzają analizę rozkładu wybranych cech miejscowych zagrożeń zarejestrowanych w Informacjach ze zdarzeń PSP za lata 2007-2012. Analizie i ocenie poddawane są w szczególności: ogólna liczba zdarzeń, ranni i ofiary śmiertelne. Dane analizowane są na poziomie kraju w rozbiciu na klasy obiektów: użyteczności publicznej, mieszkalne, produkcyjne, magazynowe, środki transportu, lasy, uprawy i rolnictwo oraz pozostałe. Na podstawie wyników badań statystycznych opracowano roczne wskaźniki rannych i ofiar śmiertelnych oraz sześcioletnie wskaźniki częstości występowania zdarzeń, rannych i ofiar śmiertelnych, w rozbiciu na powyższe kategorie. Dla klas obiektów charakteryzujących się największymi wartościami współczynników przeprowadzono analizę i ocenę rozkładu wartości współczynników w funkcji poszczególnych lat, jak również opisano trendy rozwojowe. W artykule przeprowadzono ogólną ocenę poziomu bezpieczeństwa, polegającą na wskazaniu obszarów, w których koncentracja wartości wskaźników jest największa. Wyniki badań wskazują, że miejscowe zagrożenia pojawiają się najczęściej w klasie innych obiektów (39%), obiektów mieszkalnych (31%) i środkach transportu (20%). Notuje się dla nich wskaźniki śmiertelności odpowiednio na poziomie 25%, 22%, 49% oraz wskaźniki rannych 4%, 8%, 86%. Zauważono, że dla obiektów mieszkalnych notuje się stały wzrost wartości współczynników rannych i ofiar śmiertelnych, podczas gdy w transporcie tendencja jest odwrotna. W opracowaniu scharakteryzowano dokładniej podkategorię zdarzeń generujących największą liczbę interwencji, jak również opisano dominujące rodzaje interwencji PSP.
Fires, local emergencies and false alarms are the main events` classes registered by dispatchers of the Polish State Fire Service Command Control Rooms. Statistical analysis of local emergencies factors was conducted on data from the State Fire Service Reports, covering the period 2007-2012. The statistical research was carried out on the state level. Firstly, the authors examined general number of local emergencies and casualties (injured, fatalities). Secondly, the number of local emergencies and casualties in object classes as public utilities, housing, production companies, warehouses, means of transport, forests, agriculture and others was analyzed and assessed. Based on the results of statistical indicators, annual injuries and fatalities as well as six-year local emergency frequency coefficients were calculated. The article presents overall assessment of safety level involving indication of the areas, where the concentration of frequency distribution coefficient the highest is. The object classes with the highest coefficient values between 2007 and 2012 are analysed and evaluated. The selected conclusions show that local emergencies appear the most often in the other object class (39%), housing (31%), means of transport (20%). Local emergencies injured coefficients are adequately on the level 25%, 22%, 49%, whereas local emergencies fatalities coefficients achieve 4%, 8%, 86%. It is noticed that when the coefficient values for means of transport are on the decline, the coefficient values for housing are on the rise. Additionally, the article describes subcategories which generate the highest number of interventions as well as dominant types of intervention conducted by the State Fire Service.

Opis:
The common belief that safety in aviation is created through global and regional international aviation organizations is true, however it does not fully convey the core of the problem. The standards and directives shaping the safety system in aviation are important, however these are merely strategic tools for shaping the policy and safety strategies in aviation. The real activity in this area is performed at the very bottom of the aviation structure, directly in an air company, particularly in an airline, that is, by a carrier who provides carriage and cargo services. The reason for initiating research in this area was an attempt to find answers to the following questions: to what extent does safety policy pursued by air companies influence the image of those companies as well as the assessment and safety feeling on the part of the passengers? Is investment in safety profitable from the standpoint of an airline? The above-mentioned problems, presented in a form of a report of the conducted research, constitute the bulk of this article. It should be noted that the fragmentary research undertaken in the course of work over the subject of safety conditioning in airlines may form the basis to plan further research in this area.

Social entrepreneurship is one of the most discussed issues in recent management literature. In particular, social entrepreneurship has recently gained the attention of management scholars interested in understanding its sociological and anthropological aspects. This paper focuses on Claude Lévi-Strauss’s notion of “bricolage” and the way it can represent a significant opportunity to address emergent social needs. Building on a postmodernist philosophical perspective, namely Jacques Derrida’s “deconstructionism,” we attempt to unpack the bricolage phenomenon within the social entrepreneurship field. Following the findings of an in-depth longitudinal case study, we provide a theoretical conceptualization of possible entrepreneurial solutions to social needs, exploring the significant role of bricolage that is consequently interpreted as a suitable entrepreneurial opportunity to address particular types of social needs that we shall define, in a way, as emergent.

The purpose of this study was to identify the main ways to provide social assistance to restore the resource potential of victims of emergencies (military conflicts, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, etc.), as well as to highlight the features of training future specialists in the social sphere to deal with new social risks. The study used methods of scientific analysis and generalization, as well as comparing the experience of domestic and foreign researchers and social practitioners who worked with vulnerable contingents in overcoming the consequences of emergencies. The focus is on generalizing the results of the experience of training future specialists in the social sphere to work within an environment of new social risks. Based on the conducted research, it was concluded that for the professional activity of social sector specialists in resource provision in the conditions of new social risks, it is important to direct social assistance to restore the physical, mental and social health of people at all six levels of health, taking into account the peculiarities of their age, social status, as well as ethnic features and the context of the social problem. The main directions of relevant social work with victims of emergency situations have been defined: work on strengthening the family’s potential, establishment of useful social connections in a new environment, the use of art therapy practices to normalize the psychosomatic state of clients, the use of ethnocultural means to increase the possibilities of social adaptation in new conditions. Very important in the preparation of future specialists for the relevant work is the practice-oriented training on the basis of specialized social institutions working with victims in emergency situations, as well as mastering special techniques of self-development and professional self-improvement to increase one’s own resource potential.

W dniu dzisiejszym w świecie, w którym każdego dnia zalewani jesteśmy informacjami o różnego rodzaju zdarzeniach kryzysowych, tragediach dotykających jednostki albo całe społeczeństwa, zarządzanie kryzysowe nabiera coraz większego znaczenia. Wzrasta również zainteresowanie procedurami zarządzania kryzysowego, tak praktyczne, jak i naukowe. To sprawia, że rośnie zarówno liczba samych procedur, jak i naukowych opracowań na ich temat. Wciąż jednak brakuje jednej, oficjalnej i uznanej definicji procedur zarządzania kryzysowego. Dostrzegając ten brak, autor niniejszego artykułu stawia pytanie: czym są procedury zarządzania kryzysowego i jakie ich rodzaje lub/albo kategorie możemy wyróżnić. W artykule przedstawiono różne rodzaje procedur zarządzania kryzysowego oraz autorską propozycję definicji tego pojęcia.
Today, in a world where every day we are inundated with information concerning all sorts of crisis events, tragedies affecting individuals or entire societies, crisis management is becoming increasingly important. There is also a growing interest in crisis management procedures, both practical and scientific. This has resulted in a growing number of both procedures as such and scientific studies related to them. However, there is still no single, officially recognised definition of crisis management procedures. Recognising this lack, the author of this article poses the question: what are crisis management procedures and what types and/or categories of them can we distinguish. The article presents the different types of crisis management procedures and the author’s proposal for a definition of this concept.

Przedmiotem niniejszego artykułu jest wskazanie problematyki funkcjonowania służb ratowniczych w sytuacjach kryzysowych. Problem oraz proponowane środki i sposoby jego rozwiązania przedstawiono w artykule na przykładzie szczególnego obiektu badań, jakim jest port lotniczy Katowice – Pyrzowice. Z uwagi na międzynarodowy charakter działalności portu lotniczego, jego potencjalna podatność na występowanie i skutki wszelkiego rodzaju sytuacji kryzysowych jest znaczna. Rygorystyczne przepisy prawne, regulujące działalność lotniskową zarówno w aspekcie bezpieczeństwa w rozumieniu operacyjnym, jak i ochrony lotnictwa cywilnego, są zorientowane na minimalizowanie zarówno ryzyka powstania sytuacji kryzysowej, jak i jej potencjalne skutki. Wspólne działania służb ratowniczych wymagają skutecznej koordynacji wszystkich służb na wszystkich szczeblach szczeblu funkcjonowania administracji zespolonej. W referacie zaproponowano rozwiązanie, zorientowane głównie na doskonalenie łączności pomiędzy uczestniczącymi w działaniach kryzysowych podmiotami, które powinno zapewniać koordynację służb ratowniczych na poziomie przekazywania jednolitej, precyzyjnej informacji do wszystkich zaangażowanych formacji.
The subject of this article is to point out the problems of the functioning of the emergency services in crisis situations. The problem and the proposed measures and possible solutions are presented in the article on the example of a particular object of research, which is the airport Katowice - Pyrzowice. Due to the international nature of the activity of the airport, its potential susceptibility to the occurrence and effects of all kinds of emergency situations is considerable. Stringent legal provisions governing the activities of airport both in terms of safety for the purposes of operating, as well as civil aviation security are oriented to minimize both the risk of a crisis and its potential effects. Joint activities require effective coordination of all services at all levels of the level of functioning of the administration complex. The paper proposes a solution-oriented mainly on the improvement of communication between participating in the activities of emergency entities. This solution should provide coordination of emergency services at the level of the transmission of single, accurate information to all involved formation.

Opis:
Background: Occupational health impairment of medical personnel manifested as a prominent problem in COVID-19. The aim of this study is to investigate the occupational physical injuries of front-line medical staffs in Hubei province during the fight against COVID-19. Material and Methods: questionnaire survey was conducted among 476 medical staffs from 3 regions of Hubei Province, including general characteristics and the physical discomfort/damage suffered in the isolation wards during working hours. Results: A total of 457 valid questionnaires were collected. The common physical discomfort/damage included skin injuries (22.76%), conjunctivitis (15.10%), falls (9.19%), intolerant unwell symptoms (8.53%) and sharp injuries (6.13%). Logistic regression analysis showed that: lack of protective work experience (OR = 2.049, 95% CI: 1.071–3.921), continuous working for 4 h (OR = 3.771, 95% CI: 1.858–7.654), and working >4 h (OR = 7.076, 95% CI: 3.197–15.663) were high-risk factors for skin injuries. Working continuously for 4 h (OR = 3.248, 95% CI: 1.484–7.110) and working >4 h (OR = 3.096, 95% CI: 1.232–7.772) were high-risk factors for conjunctivitis. Lack of protective work experience was a high risk factor for falls (OR = 5.508, 95% CI: 1.299–23.354). The high risk factors for intolerant unwell symptoms were continuous working for 4 h (OR = 5.372, 95% CI: 1.239–23.301) and working >4 h (OR = 8.608, 95% CI: 1.843–40.217). Working in a COVID-19 critical care unit (OR = 3.249, 95% CI: 1.344–7.854) and implementation of nursing (OR = 9.766, 95% CI: 1.307–72.984) were high risk factors for sharp injuries. Conclusions: Occupational physical injuries are universal in the COVID-19 ward. Those who take up nursing, work in a critical care ward, with no experience in an isolation ward for infectious diseases, and work continuously for ≥4 h on the same day should get more attention.

Opis:
Background: Trekking in Nepal is popular and generally safe. However preventable trekking injuries and deaths are often the result of poor risk managementand lack of skills – i.e. acute mountain sickness (AMS) and specific First Aid (FA). Shlim and Gallie’s reviews in 1992 and 2004 of trekking deaths here found a fivefold higher risk for fatal outcomes in organized trekking tours (OT) compared to independently organised trekkers (IT), including preventable deaths (i.e. AMS). Our survey sought to identify the AMS, FA and risk management knowledge/skills of OT and IT whilst trekking in Nepal. Methods: Based on previous pilot studies at the Khumbu region in Nepal, and on risk management information provided by leading German trekking operators, a survey was conducted using two questionnaires: one each for OT and IT.The study site was Manang (3,500m) in Annapurna region, Nepal. All trekkers passing through this site who volunteered their participation were included. For evaluation descriptive statistical methods and non-parametric tests were used. Results: 442 questionnaires were completed (155 OT; 287 IT). Mean agewas 36.4 +/– 12.0y and 61% were male. Mountaineering experience was low and FA training was scarce in both groups. IT (92.7%) followed acclimatization recommendations and 59.2% carried AMS medication, compared respectively to OT at 63.2% and 25.2%. Only 27.1% of OT had repatriation plans for a medical emergency. Conclusions: Most of OT and IT were inexperienced in mountaineering and in mountain emergencies. The preparedness of OT overall was inadequate and over-reliant on the organisers whose skills may also be inadequate when responding to an emergency. Responsible trekking should require that more than one person in a group have adequate, up-to-date riskassessment/management and FA skills specific to the trek, and in particular an understanding of altitude profile, AMS, and individual abilities.

Opis:
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify waste in the selected health care facility, the types and sources of events that trigger it, and to indicate possibilities to shorten time in which patients wait for help. Material and Methods: The case study was an Emergency Department located in the Province of Silesia. The Issue is many hour queues at the Emergency Departments. Results: Time to receive medical treatment is too long. Not only are high-risk patients being taken care of, but also patients who did not manage to visit their family doctor (General Practitioner - GP). Conclusions: The authoresses formulated a thesis that there are possibilities to shorten the waiting time for medical services at the Emergency Department.
