To be able to use herd health programs effectively, they must be SIMPLE & FIT the cattle OPERATION. How do we keep herd (animal) health simple? Know what a HEALTHY HERD is! A healthy herd exists when the RESISTANCE LEVEL of the animals remain above the DISEASE CHALLENGE LEVEL.
Prehospital and Disaster Medicineyear residency is 100% (p = 0.014).There was not a statistically significant difference among these three groups considering the complications but the success rate should a difference between level 1 and 3 (p = 0.936). Multiple attempts did not increase the rate of complications. Mortality were dependent to hypotension (p = 0.019) and age (p = 0.001). Conclusion: In our study we did not find the results of RSI to be operator dependent as long as it was done by emergency residents. It is recommended to compare the results of RSI and non-RSI methods in a future. Study Objective:To determine if instituting an Emergency Department (ED) fast-track area would increase efficiency in patient flow, improve utilization of limited resources, and identify critical versus non-critical patients during disaster relief in Port au Prince, Haiti. Methods: A survey was conducted at L'Hôpital de l'Université d'Etat d'Haïti (HUEH) in Port au Prince, Haiti by Emergency physicians and nurses from SUNY Downstate Medical Center on a disaster relief mission following the 2010 earthquake. The following variables were obtained to assess ED effectiveness: number of patients, acuity level, chief complaints, critical interventions, waiting times, length of stay, specialty service coverage and physical plant space. Additionally, existing practitioners were surveyed regarding existing ED practices. ED operation flow maps were created. Results: The assessment revealed a large volume of low-acuity patients mixed with high-acuity patients without identification of acuity level, time of arrival, or designated area for treatment. Although literature reports routine use of START triage, this was not being implemented in this setting. Results of implementing a fast track area included: (1) Improved identification of patients needing immediate treatment. (2) Increased flow of low acuity patients in designated fast track areas. (3) Improved triage protocols maximized appropriate use of resources, and expedited subspecialty consultation. Conclusion: By instituting well-accepted, validated patient flow systems and reinforcing communication regarding resources available and the use of geographic space, better management of incoming emergency patients was achieved. s52 Abstracts -17th World Congress on Disaster and Emergency Medicine Prehospital and Disaster Medicine Vol. 26, Supplement 1Accordingly, the state (national) veterinary service of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) conducted exercises which resulted in increased monitoring of wild and domestic bird populations and the drafting and adoption of a contingency plan (CP) for AI. The activities prescribed by the CP were implemented in February 2006 when the H5N1 virus was diagnosed in wild swans. However, no cooperation was established with public health authorities during this incident, further underscoring the need for a one health approach to disease control activities. Adoption of the One Health concept is challenging, and there is no simple plan that can be applied acros...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
