Psychological well‐being and psychosocial work environment characteristics among emergency medical and nursing staff

The aim of this study was to determine if the effect of psychosocial work environment on psychological well‐being was different for doctors and nurses who work in emergency departments in Spain. A cross‐sectional survey was carried out among 945 emergency doctors and nurses staff from Spain. The outcome variable was the psychological well‐being measured by two dimensions of SF‐36 Health Survey (SF‐36) (mental health, vitality) and one dimension of Maslach's Burnout Inventory (emotional exhaustion). The explanatory variable was the psychosocial work environment evaluated according to Karasek and Johnson's demand‐control model that includes the dimensions of psychological demands, job control, supervisor social support and co‐workers' social support. The adjusted odds ratios and their 95 per cent confidence intervals were calculated by logistic regression. The prevalence of low vitality, bad mental health and high emotional exhaustion was higher among doctors than nurses. Exposure to high psychological demands increased the probability of low vitality, bad mental health and high emotional exhaustion among doctors and nurses. Low job control and low co‐workers' social support at work were associated with poor psychological well‐being only among doctors. Low job supervisors' social support increased the risk of bad mental health among doctors and of high emotional exhaustion among nurses. There is a different effect of psychosocial work environment on psychological well‐being between doctors and nurses. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The utilization of traditional Chinese medicine and associated factors in Taiwan in 2002

Background Previous studies have noted that there is a high utilization rate of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) services in Taiwan, China and in western countries, but few studies investigated factors associated with the utilization of TCM in Taiwan. This study analyzes the utilization rate and the factors associated with the utilization of TGM in Taiwan. Methods Data for this study were from the 2002 HPKAP Survey that conducted the face-to-face questionnaire interviews of people aged 15 years and over from October 2002 to March 2003 in Taiwan. This study analyzed the utilization of TCM outpatient services, including admission to the hospital and clinic visits. Results A total of 26 755 participants completed the survey in the six-month period. The data revealed that 10.4% of participants had utilized TCM services in the past one month while 4.2% of participants utilized TCM only (without using Western medicine outpatient services (WM) or Folk therapy (F'I')). The average visits of TCM services per patient was higher among people who had utilized TCM and FT services (2.68 visits) than among those who had utilized WM and FT services (2.15 visits) or TCM services alone (2.15 visits) during the previous one month. Younger people (odds ratio OR= 1.78, 95%C/= 1.47-2.16), women (compared with men), and people with higher education levels (OR = 1.58, 95%CI =1.25-1.98) were more likely to visit TCM than compared groups. People with self-reported poor health status (OR = 2.07,95%CI = 1.76-2.44) and people who exercise regularly (OR = 1.17, 95%CI = 1.07-1.27) had higher ORs to visit TCM service than comparison group.Conclusions There is a high utilization of TCM in Taiwan. Further studies are needed to investigate the related factors and determinants between the utilization of TCM and the utilization of FT in Taiwan.     

理疗床和手法治疗肩关节周围炎的随机对照临床观察

目的评价两种不同方法治疗肩关节周围炎的临床疗效.方法采用随机数字表将患者随机分为治疗组和对照组.治疗组36例,男8例,女28例,年龄45～64岁;对照组36例,男15例,女21例,年龄45～62岁.治疗组采用温热理疗床治疗4周.对照组采用推拿按摩手法治疗4周.分别在筛选期(治疗前)及治疗后14、28 d(治疗结束时)各观察记录1次,对比两组肩部疼痛症状、肩关节功能及症状疗效的改善.结果两组治疗前后各观察指标比较,肩部疼痛症状明显改善(P＜0.05);肩关节上举外展、外旋、后伸内旋活动角度均有明显增大(P＜0.05).治疗结果显示治疗组显效4例,有效25例,无效7例;对照组痊愈12例,显效13例,有效7例,无效4例.两组疗效比较差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05),对照组优于治疗组.结论理疗床和手法对肩关节周围炎引起的一系列临床症状及功能障碍均具有一定程度的改善效果.

Local anesthesia for inguinal hernia repair in adolescents

Background Many centers use local anesthesia for adult inguinal hernia surgery in the setting of day-case surgery. There are no reports on, or guidelines for, use of anesthesia for inguinal hernia surgery in adolescents. We describe our initial experience with the use of local anesthesia and intravenous sedation for inguinal hernia surgery in adolescents in the setting of a day-surgery facility. Methods The charts of 14 consecutive adolescent patients (aged 12–17) who had inguinal hernia surgery from July 2004 to March 2005 were reviewed retrospectively. Intravenous sedation was administered 1–3 min before injection of local anesthetic. Sedation consisted of midazolam 0.085 mg kg⁻¹ and either fentanyl 0.85 μg kg⁻¹ or ketamine 0.085 mg kg⁻¹, according to the preference of the anesthesiologist. Additional sedation with half the initial dose was administered if required. Local anesthesia using a combination of lignocaine and bupivacaine was administered by the surgeon with infiltration in the skin and deep tissues. Results Fourteen adolescents aged 12–17 years (mean 14.8 ± 1.37), weighing 34–100 kg (mean 61.2 ± 16.5), had 15 inguinal hernia repairs with sedation and local anesthesia. All the patients were male. All completed the surgery with sedation and local anesthesia. None required conversion to general anesthesia. There were no immediate or subsequent complications. Mean time from the end of surgery to discharge home was under 2 h (mean 106 ± 36 min). Examination of patient charts did not reveal any complaints regarding the surgery or the postoperative course at the postoperative follow up visit. Conclusions The use of local anesthesia with intravenous sedation for inguinal hernia repair in the adolescent age group seems feasible and requires further prospective study.
