Occupational burnout is a multifaceted phenomenon and problem often encountered among medical personnel. An example of such group are workers the Emergency Medical Services (EMS). The aim present study was to make an attempt assess level job professionally active employees EMS compare different occupational groups (paramedics, nurses system, doctors system) according four analyzed factors.A cross-sectional performed using on-line questionnaire. Four factors impacting were analyzed: 1)...
The incidence of hypothermia is difficult to evaluate, and the data concerning morbidity mortality rates do not seem fully represent problem. aim study was estimate actual prevalence accidental in Poland, as well methods diagnosis management procedures used emergency rooms (ERs). A specially designed questionnaire, consisting 14 questions, mailed all 223 (ER) Poland. questions concerned incidence, risk factors, rewarming available measurement instruments. analysis involved from 42 ERs...
Hypothermic patients may be rewarmed using passive or active techniques. In case of severe accidental hypothermia (temperature<28°C) and stage III/IV according to the Swiss Staging System, standard methods might not effective aggressive treatment is needed. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has proved both safe in such cases. The Department Anesthesiology Intensive Care, John Paul II Hospital, Cracow, Poland, established Severe Accidental Hypothermia Center, which provides 24 h...
Background: Out‑of‑hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a severe medical condition. Prehospital care plays an essential role in patient survival. Aims: First, the study aimed to evaluate cases of OHCA managed by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) attempts Poland 2018, including their frequency and outcomes terms survival until hospital admission or transport helicopter emergency service (HEMS). Second, was performed identify predictors HEMS. Methods: It case‑control based on records. In 3 400...
In medical education, Web-based learning is increasingly used as a complement to practical classes. The objective of the study was perform comparative analysis three different forms e-learning course on emergency medicine in terms an indicator knowledge growth and students' satisfaction.For purpose study, we developed implemented tool form online course: A - non-animated presentation, B video, C interactive video. participants were undergraduate students nursing (n = 106). pre-test post-test...
The prognosis in hypothermic cardiac arrest is frequently good despite prolonged period of hypoperfusion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Apart from protective effect hypothermia itself established protocols treatment novel rewarming techniques may influence on outcome. purpose the study was to assess outcome patients with circulatory treated by means arterio-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) according locally elaborated protocol Severe Accidental Hypothermia Center Cracow,...
Abstract Background The extent to which Point-of-care of ultrasound (POCUS) is used in different European helicopter EMS (HEMS) unknown. We aimed study the availability, perception, and future aspects POCUS HEMS using an online survey. Method A survey about use was conducted by a multinational steering expert committee carried out from November 30, 2020 December via web portal. Invitations for participation were sent email medical directors organizations including two reminding notes....

The aim of the study was to measure frequency such emotional disturbances as anxiety, depression and aggression among patients treated in a pain clinic, well assess factors contributing disorders. Research conducted from January 2014 April 2018 involved two clinics city Warsaw, Poland. used Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale-Modified Version (HADS-M) Numerical Rating Scale (NSR). 1025 were recruited. main reasons for their attending clinic osteoarticular (43.61%) neuropathic (41.56%)....
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Occupational stress-related factors among working municipal police officers in Poland have not been examined the literature. The purpose of paper was to evaluate impact selected work-related on occupa
We sought to organize a functional system of recognition and advanced treatment hypothermic patients with extracorporeal rewarming as option. All suspected hypothermia are consulted the coordinator (HC), whose role is provide expertise on all rescue medical services. Patients Swiss staging class III IV subjected rewarming. I II managed in local hospitals, after HC provides instructions. From program initiation (July 29, 2013) November 1, 2015, 104 patients; 21 were John Paul Hospital Cracow,...
Colorectal cancer is characterized by high morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The lack of low-cost, easy-to-use screening diagnostic methods one the causes late diagnosis colorectal cancer. Beta-glucuronidase (GLU) a lysosomal exoglycosidase involved degradation glycosaminoglycans cell membranes extracellular matrix normal cancerous colon tissues. aim our research was to evaluate activity GLU serum estimate its potential value cancer.Blood samples were collected from 21 patients...
Recently, veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has become the rewarming treatment of choice in hypothermic cardiac arrest. The detailed indications for non-arrested, severely patients with circulatory instability have not been established yet. primary purpose study was a preliminary analysis all aspects process, as well initial identification mortality risk factors within group patients, treated arteriovenous (VA-ECMO). secondary aim to evaluate efficacy VA-ECMO 6-h...
Drowning is a common issue at many pools and beaches, in seas all over the world. Lifeguards often act as bystanders, therefore adequate training high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) use of equip-ment by lifeguards essential.The aim this study was to evaluate impact recently introduced CPRMeter (Laerdal, Stavanger, Norway) on quality CPR, if used moderately experienced CPR providers. In particular, we tested hypothesis that using improves chest compression compared standard...
Severe accidental hypothermia can cause circulatory disturbances ranging from cardiac arrhythmias through shock to arrest. Severity of shock, pulmonary hypoperfusion and ventilation-perfusion mismatch are reflected by a discrepancy between measurements CO2 levels in end-tidal air (EtCO2) partial pressure arterial blood (PaCO2). This disparity pose problem the choice an optimal ventilation strategy for victims, particularly prehospital period. We hypothesized that severely hypothermic...
