Background Central venous catheterisation is commonly used in critical patients intensive care units (ICU). It may cause complications and attribute to increase mortality morbidity. At coronary ICU (CICU) of cardiac hospital, central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) rate was 2.82/1000 line days 2015 3.11/1000 2016. Working collaboration with Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), we implemented evidence-based practices the form bundles aim eliminating CLABSI CICU. Methods...

Background At Heart Hospital in Doha, Qatar (HH), 127 pressure injuries (PI) were identified 2014, corresponding to an incidence of 6.1/1000 patient-days first 4 months 2014. Hospital-acquired injury (HAPI) is one the most common preventable complications hospitalisation. HAPI significantly increases healthcare costs, including use resources (dressings, support surfaces, nursing care time and medications). They also have a significant impact on patients terms pain, worsened quality life,...
Early mobilisation following cardiac surgery is vital for improved patient outcomes, as it has a positive effect on patient’s physical and psychological recovery surgery. We observed that patients admitted to the cardiothoracic intensive care unit (CTICU) had only bed exercises were confined until chest tubes removed, which may have delayed achieving functional independence. Therefore, CTICU team implemented quality improvement (QI) project aimed at early of after A retrospective analysis...
Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy is a rare complication of endotracheal intubation. We report case bilateral vocal cord following intubation for general anaesthesia. The clinical picture was hoarseness and aspiration suggesting partial paresis, as complete recurrent usually causes acute airway obstruction due to unopposed adduction. Compression the anterior branch between cuff tube posterior part thyroid cartilage likely mechanism. Ensuring that distal cricoid pressure in kept minimum...

<b>Background:</b> In the past few years, interest in STDs and their management has increased tremendously because of proven role facilitation HIV infection, which, turn, also increases risk acquiring STIs. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are a major health problem affecting mostly young people, not only developing, but developed countries Male circumcision is being considered as strategy to reduce burden HIV/AIDS. <b>Aims:</b> (i) To screen new patients attending STI clinic for...
Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is one of the most common hospital-acquired infections. The use catheters associated with several complications and increased mortality morbidity. At coronary intensive care unit (CICU) a tertiary cardiac facility, CAUTI rate was 7.6/1000 catheter days in January 2017. In collaboration Institute for Healthcare Improvement, we implemented evidence-based practices form bundles based on value improvement methodology to eliminate CAUTIs...
<b>Background:</b> Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), is now one of the greatest challenges facing world. Sexual transmission primary route human immunodeficiency virus infection worldwide. Male circumcision being considered as strategy to reduce burden HIV/AIDS. <b>Material and Methods:</b> The present study was conducted on 200 HIV positive clients. They were screened for bacterial causes STIs (<i>Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Treponema pallidum Gardnerella...
Background: One of important morbidity postoperatively is surgical site infection and the cause collection blood serous fluids which can get infected this factor even more in emergency laparotomies. our prospective randomised study compares incidence post abdominal wounds with subcutaneous suction drains versus those whom drain was not placed.Methods: A interventional 100 subjects done department surgery at rural tertiary centre. on basis exclusion inclusion criteria patient were randomly...
Background/Aims Excessive noise is a considerable problem in intensive care units, interfering with patient rest, recovery times and satisfaction. This quality improvement project aimed to implement evaluate noise-reduction strategies coronary unit Doha, Qatar. Methods Rapid plan-do-study-act cycles were used several reduction strategies, including the introduction of two designated quiet time periods per day (15:00–16:00 2:00–4:00), staff education about impact noise, environmental...
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the cessation of approximately 75% cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programmes worldwide. In March 2020, CR phase II (CRP2) services were stopped Qatar. Multiple studies had shown safety, effectiveness, reduced cost delivery and improved participation with hybrid CR. A multidisciplinary team reviewed various alternative models for decided to implement a CRP2 exercise programme (HCRP2-EP) ensure continuation our patient care. Our aim was enrol HCRP2-EP 70% all...
Clinical laboratories play a vital role in patient diagnosis and management. However, blood specimens may be rejected for variety of reasons, which have substantial clinical consequences safety. The quality team observed significant numbers samples from the emergency department inpatient units due to hemolysis. A total 1.43% were rejected, was considerably higher than target 0.4%. This project aimed reduce percentage (measured between January 2015 April 2016) by 50% coronary ICU December...

Traumatic abdominal wall hernias (TAWHs) are relatively uncommon entities. Common mechanisms that predispose to such include motor vehicle accidents, seat belt injuries, fall from height, handlebar and bullfighting. Bullhorn injury leading TAWHs is an mechanism. We report here one patient who was managed by laparoscopic transperitoneal anatomical repair of the defect using polypropylene suture. The recovered well without any complication being followed up. Such small defects can be...
