Abstract:
Psychiatric reform in Piedmont following new mental health legislation in Italy (1978) is described. The process of reform is characterised by a drastic reduction in psychiatric hospital populations and the setting-up of a new system of community-based services. The number of hospital admissions remains stable, but the character of inpatient care has changed. The reform involves problems of care for chronic patients.

Abstract:
Spontaneous epistaxis in patients with COVID-19 can represent a clinical challenge with respect to both the risk of contamination and the treatment options. We herein present the data of 30 patients with COVID-19 who developed spontaneous epistaxis while hospitalized at Eastern Piedmont Hospital during March and April 2020. All patients received low-molecular-weight heparin during their hospital stay and required supplementary oxygen therapy either by a nasal cannula or continuous positive airway pressure. Both conditions can represent risk factors for developing epistaxis. Prevention of crust formation in patients with rhinitis using a nasal lubricant should be recommended. If any treatment is required, appropriate self-protection is mandatory.

Abstract:
Background It is of great importance to examine the impact of the healthcare reorganization adopted to confront the COVID-19 pandemic on the quality of care provided to non-COVID-19 patients. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the COVID-19 national lockdown (March 9, 2020) on the quality of care provided to patients with hip fracture (HF) in Piedmont and Emilia-Romagna, two large regions of northern Italy severely hit by the pandemic. Methods We calculated the percentage of HF patients undergoing surgery within 2 days of hospital admission. An interrupted time-series analysis was performed on weekly data from December 11, 2019 to June 9, 2020 (≈6 months), interrupting the series in the 2nd week of March. The same data observed the year before were included as a control time series with no “intervention” (lockdown) in the middle of the observation period. Results Before the lockdown, 2-day surgery was 69.9% in Piedmont and 79.2% in Emilia-Romagna; after the lockdown, these proportions were equal to 69.8% (–0.1%) and 69.3% (–9.9%), respectively. While Piedmont did not experience any drop in the amount of surgery, Emilia-Romagna exhibited a significant decline at a weekly rate of –1.29% (95% CI [−1.71 to −0.88]). Divergent trend patterns in the two study regions reflect local differences in pandemic timing as well as in healthcare services capacity, management, and emergency preparedness.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Within the Home Radiology service of the Piedmont Region - R@dhome (1) - it was decided to employ a mobile radiological service to allow minor radiological procedures to be conducted in rural areas. Cortemilia (average age of population 51.6 years, population over 65 years 33.6 percent) is situated in Piedmont (Langhe region) and it is about 40 kilometers, with bad roads, from the nearest hospital. For this reason it's important to optimize the potential offered by telemedicine. The purpose of R@dhome is to provide simple radiological services (ambulatory) to vulnerable patients in outpatient settings. The aim of this work was to implement an assessment, based on Health Impact Analysis (HIA) (2,3) criteria, of the health intervention provided by the R@dhome service.METHODS:From January 2016 to December 2016 the following were assessed: •number of patients examined in the local radiological ambulatory service•inhabitants opinions (using questionnaires)•General Practitioner, Pharmacist, Family nurse opinions (using semi-structured interviews)•stakeholder opinions (Mayor, local politicians, using semi-structured interviews)•number of cars and ambulances used for the transport of patients to the nearest hospital•number of patients who avoided transportation to the nearest hospital•pollutants PM10 (particle size 10) related to cars and ambulance traffic.RESULTS:Forty percent of people interviewed were more than 60 years old, 76 percent needed x-rays (in 2015), 96.8 percent considered it useful to have a closer x-ray service, only 42 percent had a driver's licence but preferred not to drive; GP's said that 50 percent of local patients had trouble reaching the hospital and that 30 percent of local patients need informal or formal care. From Januay to December 2016 we examined (mainly chest and bone x-rays) in 598 patients using as an alternative to private cars and ambulances the radiological mobile station, and the pollutant emissions were shown to be reduced by 85 percent.CONCLUSIONS:This study has provided a comprehensive HIA report which shows that the R@dhome intervention improves patient's QOL, reduces social costs, reduces the number of patients in the Hospital Radiology Department, reduces rate of hospitalization and pollution.

AbstractIntroductionThe assessment of hospital disaster preparedness and response performance is a way to find and remove possible gaps and weaknesses in hospital disaster management effectiveness. The aim of this pilot study was to test the association between the level of preparedness and the level of response performance during a full-scale hospital exercise.MethodThis pilot study was conducted in a hospital during a full-scale exercise in the Piedmont region of Italy. The preparedness evaluation was conducted by a group of three experts, three days before the exercise, and the response evaluation was conducted during the exercise. The functional capacity module was used for preparedness evaluation, and the response performance of the “command and control” function of the hospital was evaluated by nine semiquantitative performance indicators.ResultsThe preparedness of the chosen hospital was 59%, while the response performance was evaluated as 70%. The hospital staff conducted Simple Triage and Rapid Transport (START) triage while they received 61 casualties, which was 90% correct for the yellow group and 100% correct for the green group.ConclusionThis pilot study showed that it is possible to use standardized evaluations tools, to simultaneously assess the relationship between preparedness elements and response performance measures. An experimental study including a group of hospitals, also using more comprehensive evaluation tools, should be done to evaluate the correlation between the level of preparedness and the response performance of a hospital, and the impact of hospital disaster planning, on the outcome of disasters victims.DjalaliA,CarenzoL,RagazzoniL,AzzarettoM,PetrinoR,Della CorteF,IngrassiaPL.Does hospital disaster preparedness predict response performance during a full-scale exercise?

Abstract:
Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has dramatically hit all Europe and Northern Italy in particular. The reallocation of medical resources has caused a sharp reduction in the activity of many medical disciplines, including urology. The restricted availability of resources is expected to cause a delay in the treatment of urological cancers and to negatively influence the clinical history of many cancer patients. In this study, we describe COVID-19 impact on uro-oncological management in Piedmont/Valle d’Aosta, estimating its future impact. Methods: We performed an online survey in 12 urological centers, belonging to the Oncological Network of Piedmont/Valle d’Aosta, to estimate the impact of COVID-19 emergency on their practice. On this basis, we then estimated the medical working capacity needed to absorb all postponed uro-oncological procedures. Results: Most centers (77%) declared to be “much”/“very much” affected by COVID-19 emergency. If uro-oncological consultations for newly diagnosed cancers were often maintained, follow-up consultations were more than halved or even suspended in around two out of three centers. In-office and day-hospital procedures were generally only mildly reduced, whereas major uro-oncological procedures were more than halved or even suspended in 60% of centers. To clear waiting list backlog, the urological working capacity should dramatically increase in the next months; delays greater than 1 month are expected for more than 50% of uro-oncological procedures. Conclusions: COVID-19 emergency has dramatically slowed down uro-oncological activity in Piedmont and Valle d’Aosta. Ideally, uro-oncological patients should be referred to COVID-19-free tertiary urological centers to ensure a timely management.
