HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATION

Organizing experience in an epidemiological service in the context of urgent conversion of a general hospital to manage patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection

Vechorko V.I., Gorbacheva V.A., Kostenko O.A.

Abstract

February 11, 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) declared a pandemic of the new coronavirus and assigned the official name of the infection caused by the new coronavirus - COVID-19 («Coronavirus disease 2019»). On February 11, 2020, the International Committee on Virus Taxonomy gave the official name to the infectious agent as SARS-CoV-2. A new coronavirus infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 has become a challenge for the healthcare system as in Russia as over the world. The medical community has focused its efforts on fighting the pandemic. On March 20, 2020, there the O. M. Filatov Municipal clinical hospital was decided to be redesigned, and this general hospital, including maternity wards, became an infection hospital. One of the main reasons for redesigning was multidisciplinary medical care, including working with patients with a new coronavirus infection, the presence of a maternity home with boxes and own reanimation, the presence of a transition connecting for all three buildings, a large area, with ability to organize routes and placements additional temporary buildings. In the first place there were solved problems as a device of sanitary systems with the gateway, division to the «red» and «green» zones in all buildings of the clinics, development of detailed routing the patients including infectious requirements, navigation inside buildings and on hospital territories for the separation of medical personal, transport, the realization of a plan with the requirements, submitted by Federal Service for Oversight of Consumer Protection and Welfare to medical institutions, working with a new coronavirus infection, in terms of sanitary standards: disinfection of areas and surfaces and transport, creation inventory curative diagnostic (including reanimation) equipment, sufficient number of oxygen points, medicines, disinfection products and personal protective equipment. One of the scale tasks were about care for the health safety of medical personal. Changes to the work concerned various aspects: legal regulation, ethical problems, features practical work and education, interaction with all of them structural departments of the hospital. Within a week task, which put the Department of health of the city of Moscow, was resolved by management of hospital, and on March 27, 2020, the hospital accepted the first patients as an infectious disease hospital.

Prospects for implementing a new nurse model in capital healthcare: expected effects and possible risks

Aksenova E.I., Aleksandrova O.A., Yarasheva A.V., Nenakhova Y.S.

Abstract

Increasing the role of nurses is one of the key trends supported by WHO and proven to be effective in many countries. Russia is also moving along this path: the relevant documents have been adopted, an experiment is underway in the pilot regions, and in 2020 further scaling of the new model of the nurse has been announced.

The purpose of the study. Analysis of readiness to expand the functions of a nurse.

Methodology. Content analysis of the information context dedicated to the implementation of the idea of expanding the functions of nurses; studying the experience in pilot regions; sociological research in the form of a mass survey of nurses and doctors, as well as a series of expert interviews.

Results. At the level of an abstract idea, the expansion of the functions of nurses is welcomed by the majority of doctors and experts, but the possibility of its successful implementation in the current conditions raises serious doubts; the same applies to the prospects for achieving the declared goals - increasing the role of nurses and improving the quality of medical care.

Discussion. There is both the noticeable interest of the medical community in this issue and the problems of an informational, organizational, technical, socio-psychological nature that can reduce the effect of the reform. Informational gaps or ambiguity in understanding the essence of the innovation by different groups of medical workers, as well as a range of concerns that exist in both the nursing and medical communities, were identified. The functions that can be transferred to nurses, as well as the conditions necessary for this, are considered.

Conclusion. A serious professional analysis of the opportunities and risks contained in the new reform is required: various areas of medical activity have their specifics, without which the innovation can cause an acute negative response and a noticeable outflow of nursing staff from the capital’s medical organizations.

Social and economic determinants of the age structure of mortality from suicide in Russia

Semyonova V.G., Ivanova A.E., Sabgaida T.P., Zubko A.V., Mikhailov A.Y., Evdokushkina G.N., Zaporozhchenko V.G.

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to analyze mortality from suicide in the post-Soviet Russia in terms of its age-related changes and determinants.

Material and methods. The authors used data of the Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat) calculated in the FAISS-Potential system (Factographic analytical information and statistical system) for the period 1989-2018 as well as age and standardized (European standard population) indices by death causes according to ICD-10.

Results. During crises, the age structure of mortality from suicide is highly gender-specific. In males, there is a plateau of super mortality in working ages with a local (and sometimes absolute) maximum in persons aged 50-59 years; the difference from the non-crisis periods is mainly determined by young working ages. In females, the “crisis” age structure of suicide mortality is characterized by a stable upward trend without any pronounced maxima.

Discussion. Comparing regions by mortality from officially registered suicide, on the one hand, and latent suicide (hanging, fall/jump from a height, and drug poisoning), on the other hand, substantiates objectivity of this problem - namely, a significant underestimation of mortality from suicide. The study shows the opposite groups of these regions to mirror each other, i.e. regions with low mortality from suicide are characterized by a significant latent suicide component.

Conclusions. Dynamics in suicide mortality in the post-Soviet Russia was determined by its social and economic changes. A social determinant of mortality from suicide is reflected by its age structure: there is a significant increase in the risk of suicide in working-age groups during the crisis and super mortality among the working-age population in the disadvantaged territories even during non-crisis periods, while there is an opposite trend in the structure of suicide mortality in older ages. The general determinant patterns of the age structure of suicide mortality are distorted by its under-registration.

Knowledge and practical experience of the population in providing first aid

Bogdan I.V., Gurylina M.V., Chistyakova D.P.

Abstract

Background. Timely and competent provision of first aid impacts death prevention in an emergency. A significant part of emergencies involves people without medical education.

The purpose. To measure self-esteem and real knowledge of the population about first aid provision.

Material and methods. The study was conducted using the street polling method (CAPI, 800 residents), the sample represented the Moscow population by gender, age (18+), district.

Results. 66% of respondents note a lack of awareness of the rules of first aid, 25% note a complete lack of knowledge. Greater confidence in knowledge is shown by respondents who have completed specialized courses, as well as training at work. 30% of the respondents had experience in helping relatives or bystanders. In cases of respiratory and circulatory arrest, assistance was provided even by those respondents who do not know how to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Most of the respondents (87%) were able to name emergency phone numbers, but a third of the respondents made significant mistakes. The respondents do not seek to get additional education, as only 58% want to undergo training including 39% who immediately said that they «have no time for it».

Discussion. The study showed insufficient levels of competence gained from the available sources of information, both in terms of confidence in gained knowledge and real knowledge. This correlates with other studies. The older population is one of the most “vulnerable” groups in terms of competence.

Conclusion. The research data can be used to improve the information policy on this issue.

Abstract

Introduction. Prevention and treatment of glaucoma, which threatens the development of blindness, is one of the most important medical and social problems facing modern society in the era of value-based health care. However, against the background of a wide selection of prostaglandin-F2α analogs, which have an approximately similar level of decrease in ophthalmotonus, a clinical and economic argumentation is required for the approach when forming a budget for drug treatment of glaucoma.

The aim of the study. To assess the burden on the health budget of the city of Moscow when using the fluorinated prostaglandin-F2α analog as compared to other prostaglandin-F2α analogs for the treatment of adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma.

Material and methods. There was studied data on the population of patients with a diagnosis of «glaucoma» receiving medication from the budgetary funds of the city of Moscow. The direct medical costs of healthcare in Moscow were calculated for preparations of prostaglandin-F2α analogs for the treatment of adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma in various clinical options for 5 years.

Results. The use of the fluorinated prostaglandin-F2α analog drug Tafluprost in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma is economically justified, while budget savings in the 5-year horizon amounted to 196,777,224.60 rubles, 12,295,378.28 rubles in the baseline scenario (default appointment). and 116 084 865.02 rubles, and in alternative scenarios (appointment for adverse events on Latanoprost) - 125 113 646.70 rubles, 43 942 565.04 rubles. and 89,609,415.58 rubles, respectively.

Conclusion. The inclusion of the drug Tafluprost in the drug supply programs of the Moscow healthcare system will increase the efficiency of the use of financial resources and increase the availability of drug supply.

Sharapova O.V., Brynza N.S., Kicha D.I., Gerasimova L.I., Slashcheva D.M., Pirogova N.D., Petrushina A.D.

Abstract

Introduction. Tuberculosis in Russia is one of the primary problems of epidemiology and public health.

The purpose: to analyze the epidemic situation of tuberculosis in high-risk groups of children and adolescents in the Tyumen region of Russia.

Material and methods. Were analyzed the annual reporting forms No. 33 «Information about patients with tuberculosis» for 2014-2018 in the Tyumen region.

Results. According to our research, research materials in the region, WHO recommendations for eliminating tuberculosis by 2035 the need to develop new approaches and practical recommendations for clinical dispensary observation of children with altered tuberculin sensitivity is justified.

Discussion. The epidemic situation among children with altered tuberculin sensitivity by 2018 in the districts of the Tyumen region is characterizing by its heterogeneity. In some districts of the region, the number of children with a turn of tuberculin reactions remains high or continues to increase. Such trends can be associated with the incidence of tuberculosis and the presence of patients with open forms of respiratory tuberculosis in these areas.

Conclusion. To improve the efficiency of preventing the development of active tuberculosis in Russian children in 2010, a mathematical model of immune response developed in the Tyumen Region based on the study of immunological indices in groups of children with high sensitivity and hyperresponsiveness to the Mantoux tests 2TE samples. The model can be successfully used for diagnostics and assess the characteristics of the course of tuberculosis infection.

Naumova E.A., Bonkalo T.I., Golenkov A.V., Shmeleva S.V., Kamynina N.N., Dubrovinskaya E.I., Shimanovskay Y.V., Petrova G.D.

Abstract

The purpose of the research is to study smoking behavior in Chuvashia (one of the regions of Russia) in dynamics from 2014 to 2019.

Material and methods. 2513 residents of the Chuvash Republic (1165 men and 1348 women) aged 15 to 92 years (average age - 43.0 ± 16.9 years) were interviewed anonymously. The questionnaire was used for the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS), which is the standard for monitoring global tobacco use.

Results. In 2019, 19.9% of the respondents (36.7% among men and 5.4% among women) regularly used tobacco products. On average, they smoked more than 14 cigarettes a day, the average age at starting daily smoking was 17.8 years. 53.8% of smokers have sought medical help in the last year and 76.2% of them received advice from a health worker to quit smoking. In 2019, compared to 2014, the number of intermittent smokers and former daily smokers significantly decreased. The average age of starting smoking increased from 16.5 to 17,8 years (for women it decreased from 18 to 17.7 years). Men began to try to quit smoking more often, while women did it less often. Both received the advice of a health worker to quit smoking more often. The respondents were less likely to pay attention to information on cigarette packs about the dangers of smoking, especially women, and, as a result, fewer smokers of both sexes thought about quitting smoking. The positive tendencies include a significant decrease in secondhand smoke at home (14,8%) and work (10%), including secondhand smoke among pregnant and lactating women.

Conclusion. Over the past five years, the number of smokers in the Chuvash Republic has remained stable, which is associated with the state policy to combat tobacco consumption in Russia. However, a decrease in the proportion of the respondents who pay attention to information about the dangers of tobacco and who are less likely to think about abandoning tobacco smoking requires the search for new forms of prevention of smoking behavior among the residents of Chuvashia.

Abstract

The duration of the cycle of human capital accumulation in the workplace, as well as the need to constantly master new technologies and practices of medical and preventive care for the population, require professional development of healthcare professionals. The implementation of this need requires the provision of appropriate social protection of medical personnel.

The purpose of the study. Development of approaches to the analysis of social protection of medical professionals in the world of work concerning working conditions that contribute to the maintenance and development of their professional level.

Material and methods. The concept of social work-related security was used as the theoretical basis of the study. The methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis of the data of sociological and economic surveys were used as a methodological basis. The data were obtained based on the materials of sample questionnaires of medical specialists conducted throughout Russia and in Moscow.

Results. The ratings for assessing the characteristics of social protection of medical specialists have been determined. The highest rating was given to assessments of the stability of employment and wages, the lowest - assessments of labor safety (in terms of intensity), and wage size. Another group of reasons for the average rating was the identified advantages and disadvantages of the system of additional professional education.

Discussion. The main characteristics of the work, which contribute to and complicate professional development, have been identified. They create a basis for finding and justifying ways to improve them. A complex of objective and subjective factors has been formed that affect the participation of medical specialists in additional professional education and its qualitative results.

Conclusion. Many scientific prerequisites are presented for expanding the possibilities for a more successful integration of continuing education in health care into the general system of continuing professional education.

Walkability as the key element of urban planning within the Healthy Cities concept (systematic review)

Vosheva N.A., Kamynina N.N., Korotkova E.O., Voshev D.V.

Abstract

The purpose of the study. The purpose of this work is the exploration and generalization of scientific researches on walkability to determine its advantages as an element of public policy in human-centered cities.

Over the past fifty years, the world community has actively discussed the issue of healthy and sustainable urban development planning, which has gained particular relevance with the recent World Health Organization publication of the “Healthy Cities: An Effective Approach to a Rapidly Changing World” concept (2020). One of the Healthy Cities approach goals is to promote healthy urban planning and design centered on human well-being (unlike prevalent in the past vehicle orientation), and the main component of such planning is pedestrianization or walkability. The systematic reviews and meta-analyses reporting method (PRISMA) were used in the review. The search was carried out in the bibliographic databases Elibrary, PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, Google Scholar. The study of the structure, types, and relationship between pedestrianization and the type of urban planning revealed the global advantages of creating walkable areas, such as maintaining the physical, mental and social health of citizens, increasing social capital, and improving the city’s ecological and economic atmosphere.

Conclusion. Thus the promoting walkability was concluded to be a public policy as a relatively simple and highly effective way to benefit in the short, medium, and long term. This fact ultimately makes pedestrianization one of the most important tools for healthy urban planning and design.
