ABSTRACT Delphi studies in disaster medicine lack consensus on expert agreement metrics. This study examined various metrics using a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) preparedness the Middle East North Africa region. Forty international experts evaluated 133 items across ten CBRN Preparedness Assessment Tool themes 5‐point Likert scale. Agreement was measured Kendall's W, Intraclass Correlation Coefficient, Cohen's Kappa. Statistical machine learning techniques compared...
Introduction: Disaster damage to health systems is a human and tragedy, results in huge economic losses, deals devastating blows development goals, shakes social confidence. Hospital disaster preparedness presents complex clinical operation. It difficult philosophical challenge. determine how much time, money, effort should be spent preparing for an event that may not occur. Health facilities whether hospitals or rural clinics, source of strength during emergencies disasters. They ready save...
Over the past 3 decades, diversity of ethnic, religious, and political backgrounds worldwide, particularly in countries Middle East North Africa (MENA), has led to an increase number intercountry conflicts terrorist attacks, sometimes involving chemical biological agents. This warrants moving toward a collaborative approach strengthening preparedness region. In disaster medicine, artificial intelligence techniques have been increasingly utilized allow thorough analysis by revealing unseen...
Nowadays, many medical schools include training in disaster medicine undergraduate studies. This study evaluated the efficacy of a curriculum recently designed for Saudi Arabian students. Participants were 15 male and 14 female students their fourth, fifth or sixth year at Jazan University Medical School, Arabia. The course was held Research Center Emergency Disaster Medicine Computer Sciences Applied to Practice Novara, Italy. overall mean score on test given before 41.0 % it increased 67.7...
Health professional preparedness is a key element of disaster response; overall there need for increased medicine training worldwide. The objective this study was to design and develop curriculum in community-based Saudi Arabian medical undergraduates.A structured five-step approach used curriculum. Expert stakeholders from the international communities were surveyed determine objectives content. Learning strategies carefully considered maximize participation retention. Particular attention...
Abstract Background Mass chemical exposure emergencies are infrequent but can cause injury, illness, or loss of life for large numbers victims. These stretch and challenge the available resources healthcare systems within community. Political unrest in Middle East, including terrorist attacks against civilians Syria increasing industry accidents, have highlighted lack hospital preparedness incidents region. This study aimed to evaluate effectiveness a course designed empower frontline...
Background: Disaster medicine training in medical school is a key element of disaster preparedness, and several international educational authorities have called for an increase this specific type training. The objective study was to assess the current state education Kingdom Saudi Arabia. Methods: All 30 schools Arabia were invited participate study, 25-item online survey sent those that consented. Results: response rate 67%. Only three responding 20 universities currently programs, they...
IntroductionUnacceptable practices of health care providers during disasters have been observed because they work outside the scope their daily and inadequate training. A greater need for involvement professionals in disaster management has noted Saudi Arabia.

Abstract Objective Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incidents require meticulous preparedness, particularly in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region. This study evaluated CBRN response operational flowcharts, tabletop training scenarios methods, a health sector preparedness assessment tool specific to MENA Methods An online Delphi survey engaging international disaster medicine experts was conducted. Content validity indices (CVIs) were used validate items....
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to use artificial intelligence (AI) computing techniques determine if they can validate the findings of a previously published thematic analysis article focusing on disaster medicine experts’ open-ended feedback about Middle East and North African countries (MENA) for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear (CBRN) threats. Methods Automated text analytics were employed explore visualize semantic essence through word vector transformation Principal...
Most emergency medical response systems rely on paper triage tags and clipboards to share information during mass-causality incidents (MCIs). However, this procedure has proven labor-intensive, time-consuming, susceptible human error. Previous research about electronic depend a small movable device, which can be costly. Therefore, an system was developed facilitate effective patient care emergency. In paper, the design, development, deployment of for use by rescuers responding MCIs disasters...
Introduction: The international and national response team faces many challenges during a complex humanitarian emergency. These include difficult organization, an unprepared disaster plan, disrupted political system. Previous studies showed reactive approach in earlier disasters Saudi Arabia the need for greater involvement of health professionals management. As result, several medical education training institutes began to introduce courses which were mainly about Major Incidents Response,...
