Risks at the level of the operating room are permanent and different from one surgical intervention to another. They have diverse sources, hence the importance of risk management concept for a good functioning of the operating room in order to enhance care quality.The recurrent absence of surgical instruments (surgery forceps and other instruments) in their box is still a major problem within the operating room. It often happens during the surgical interventions, whether are major or minor, that the surgical team uses many boxes to fill these lacks.The objective of this study is to help the clinic to establish an ongoing improvement dynamic of processes within the operating room. It is consisted of tracing the steps of management of the patient to be operated, from their first contact with the process staff to their exit from the operating room to the functional unit. With the help of cartography, the connections between the operating room process and the processes of support, the liaison between activities, fluxes and resources are easily understood.The analysis and the prioritization of dominant problems are done according to (SMART) indicators and QQQQCC methodology. The absence of surgical instruments (surgery forceps and other instruments) in their storing boxes was chosen as a dominant problem within this process in complicity with key persons of the operating room and the clinic managers through many meetings.Through the analysis of the causes effects or ishikawa diagram, the weak organizational culture, the competences insufficiency, unsuitable workforce, and the under motivation of staff sterilization service have been recognized as causes of the origin of the problem because it is at the equipment packaging step where the instruments are intertwined.In conclusion, an arsenal of solutions and actions are set up to overcome this problem and as the staff enhancement responsible for sorting and packaging boxes of sterilization (currently only the major is dedicated to these tasks, continuous staff training, a team in charge of monitoring and evaluation of risks and quality within the operating…

Background. Implementing decisive and effective infection prevention and control measures necessitates a thorough grasp of the general population’s level of knowledge in order to identify existing gaps and react appropriately. Objective. The goal of this cross-sectional research was to assess public knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) about COVID-19 in Kankan Guinea, in order to better understand the ercial use only socio-demographic factors that are associated with poor KAP. Materials and Methods. The study population consists of 1230 people who reside in five health districts in the Kankan region. An anonymous paper-based questionnaire, given face-to-face by trained field agents, was used to gather data. Results. The research included 1230 Guineans in total. The bulk of respondents (60%) were familiar with COVID-19. Only 44% of respondents under the age of 29 had a clear understanding of COVID-19. Male participants knew more about COVID-19 than female ones (P=0.003). The majority of participants (82%) had negative attitudes toward COVID-19, while 61% reported positive practices linked to COVID-19 measures. In this research, being female was a risk factor for poor knowledge of COVID-19 (P0,001), and being single was a risk factor for negative attitudes toward COVID-19 (P=0,009). Conclusion. Appropriate measures should be taken to increase public awareness and improve general practice of preventive measures aimed at reducing the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19.
