Abstract:

Abstract Human movement when walking or running is a widely researched area. However, there is an increased incidence of musculoskeletal injury from poor positioning when moving and handling patients amongst healthcare professionals and is one of the main causes of long term musculoskeletal health problems. In the clinical area, an individual’s musculoskeletal health system is subjected to mechanical loading, increasing the body’s stress and strain limits, and once these are exceeded injury occurs. The risk of pain and injury has a direct relation from the over use of poor posture from poor mo

Abstract:

Purpose and backgroundWork-related musculoskeletal disorders, particularly back pain, are a significant issue for healthcare workers, with patient handling being the most frequently reported risk factor. Patient handling is often performed without assistive devices or equipment, which can cause healthcare staff to maintain awkward postures or experience high loads. This review aimed to comprehensively map the literature surrounding manual patient handling (without assistive devices) by healthcare practitioners to identify the current evidence-base on moving and handling of patients and explore

Abstract:

6521 Background: It is often believed that within a clinical trial a patient’s progression status should be assessed as frequently as practically possible if the primary objective is to compare progression-free survival (PFS). However, the statistical analysis of PFS data compares rates of progression rather than a specific percentile such as a median, and results in an estimate of the hazard ratio (HR)—the ratio of event rates. Methods: We provide results of simulations assessing the power and bias of an analysis of PFS in controlled trials according to visit frequency, rate of progression an

Abstract:

The Internet of Things (IoT) in healthcare has gained significant attention in recent years. This study demonstrates an adaptation of IoT in healthcare by illustrating a method of respiration rate measurement from a platform that simulates breathing. Respiration rate is a crucial physiological measure in monitoring critically ill patients. The devised approach, with further development, may be suitable for integration into neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) to measure infants’ respiration rate. A potential advantage of this method is that it monitors respiration using a wireless non-contact

Abstract:

Background: Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive neurological condition with no known cure. Supportive management and symptom control by a multidisciplinary team forms the mainstay of treatment. Caring for patients with MND throughout the COVID-19 required service providers to think of ways to adapt the service in order to meet the acute and constantly changing needs of their service users within pandemic guidelines. Aims: This paper explores innovative changes within the occupational therapy service provision during the pandemic and how it supports the multidisciplinary team (MDT) wor

Abstract:

Brachytherapy, an internal radiation therapy modality, is essential in the management of several cancers, such as cervical, prostate, and breast cancers. The introduction of a Brachytherapy Patient Transfer Table in Bangladesh's radiotherapy facilities represents a significant progress in oncology care, particularly for patients receiving internal radiation therapy for cancer. Brachytherapy uses radioactive material inside or around the tumour, necessitating precise patient positioning for safe treatment. However, existing manual handling approaches increase patient discomfort, misalignment, a

Abstract:

Cancer biobanks have a crucial role in moving forward the field of translational cancer research and, therefore, have been promoted as indispensable tools for advancing basic biomedical research to preclinical and clinical research, ultimately leading to the design of clinical trials. Consequently, they play an essential role in the establishment of personalized oncology by combining biological data with registries of detailed medical records. The availability of complete electronic medical reports from individualized patients has led to personalized approaches for diagnosis, prognosis, and pr
