Abstract:
Standard precautions should be applied to prevent health care-associated infections during every nursing activity. However, adherence to standard precautions was reported to be inadequate. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the rates of standard precaution adherence and the association between perception of patient safety management and standard precaution adherence. In this cross-sectional descriptive study, a convenience sample of nurses was recruited from a university-affiliated teaching hospital in Seoul, Korea. Data were collected using a structured self-report questionnaire. Among the 332 questionnaires returned (response rate: 94.9%), a total of 329 nurses were analyzed. In the present study, the overall standard precaution adherence rate was approximately 53.5%. The multiple linear regression results revealed that participants’ perceptions of patient safety management were only significantly associated with standard precaution adherence after adjusting other covariates (β = 0.412, p < 0.001). Nurse supervisors should focus more on raising awareness about nurses’ perception of patient safety management based on the specific work environment, such as the total number of nurses working together and the nurse-to-patient ratio. Nurse educators should develop integrated curricula to help graduate nurses transition smoothly into professional practice and enhance adherence to standard precautions in diverse health care settings.

Abstract:
Healthcare workers (HCWs) such as medical doctors, nurses, laboratory staff and aides who work in the hospitals, clinics and other health care settings are frequently exposed to infectious diseases. Some of these infectious diseases have no available vaccination; consequently, these blood borne infections are a major cause of risk for health care worker. The knowledge and awareness of universal precautions is thus essential for all HCWs and other people in at risk occupations. A review of the literature on universal precaution's using Google search engine was done. Twenty one scientific publications on universal precautions and standard precautions were reviewed and summarized. Health care professionals needed to be updated on the principles of universal basic precautions as it had been proven that there were deficiencies in the knowledge and applications of the practice of the universal precautions. To minimise the risks of acquiring HIV, HBV and other blood borne diseases during performance of job duties, workers should be protected from exposure to blood and other body fluids. In order to protect hospital workers, the hospital authorities must provide general information about the danger to be faced in practises, the ways in which AIDS and hepatitis were transmitted and must give general training with mass awareness to the hospital staff. It can be concluded that hospital staff and authorities other are equally responsible and accountable for transmission of these hospital-acquired information.

Abstract:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has assumed a global health concern since the first case was recorded in Wuhan community China in December 2019. The objective of this paper is to report the level of practice of safety precautions against COVID 19 among pregnant women attending Antenatal Clinics in Central Hospital Benin, Benin City in Nigeria. A self- administered questionnaire on the level of practice of safety precautions against covid19 infection was administered to a total of 420 pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in central Hospital Benin City for Data collection. The results showed that two hundred and four (48.6%) of the respondents reported that they have recently avoided crowded places. Three hundred and seventy two (88.6%) reported recently wearing mask whenever they left home. Three hundred and twenty four (77.1%) of the respondents had good practice of safety precautions against COVID19. The study showed a good practice of safety precautions against COVID19 and this was influenced by the women’s level of education, occupation and knowledge of COVID-19. However, there is still the need to improve the knowledge of the women attending antenatal clinic regarding COVID-19 through health education seminars. Also up scaling the practice of safety precautions could be done through such health education seminars. Keywords: Pregnant women, Practice, Safety precaution, covid-19

Abstract:
Standard precautions protect patients and nurses from infection. Nevertheless, compliance with standard precautions is lower among emergency department nurses than other nurses. We examined the individual and organizational factors that influence emergency department nurses’ compliance with standard precautions via a cross-sectional study. A self-reported questionnaire survey was administered to 140 nurses working in nine emergency departments in South Korea. It included items regarding ethical awareness and standard precaution self-efficacy at the individual level as well as safety environment, organizational culture for infection control, and degree of compliance with standard precautions at the organizational level. Individual and organizational predictors were identified using a multilevel analysis. The results indicated that 81.1% of nurses’ compliance with standard precautions was influenced by individual differences, while only 18.9% was influenced by organizational differences. Individual- and organizational-level predictors explained 46.7% and 55.4% of the variance in emergency department nurses’ compliance with standard precautions, respectively. Emergency department nurses’ compliance with standard precautions was predicted by ethical awareness and standard precaution self-efficacy at the individual level and by organizational culture for infection control at the organizational level. Our findings provide evidence for the need to improve facilities and human resource management as well as the organizational culture for infection control.

Abstract:
The paper seeks to analyse the understanding of food safety by consumers of agro food products in the Nitra region. The food safety is here understood as the complex of precautions concerning the plant health protection, veterinary problems, animal health protection and animal welfare, concerning the foodstuffs and feeds. Realization of these precautions leads to the safety of all the parts of the food chain and the final foodstuff. Health, good living level and the protection of economic and social interests of people are the basic attributes for the evaluation of the role of foodstuff. That is why the food policy of the SR and the EC is also subordinated to these attributes. General principles and claims concerning food safety are set in the decree of the European Parliament and the Commission (EC) No. 178/2002. Relevant claims of this key horizontal regulation are already in use since January the 1st 2005, and create the common basement for precautions concerning foodstuffs and feeds, and legally ensure the complex approach to the food safety including all the direct and indirect impacts on food safety, animal health and some environmental issues. The food safety is a public good in the SR as it is characterised by non-excludability from consumption and non-existence of rivalry in the consumption.

Abstract:
Background: There are adverse side effects associated with handling chemotherapy; however, using safe-handling precautions can minimize or prevent these potential effects. Despite availability of international guidelines for chemotherapy handling, adherence to precautions is below expectations. This study examined knowledge of safe-handling precautions among a sample of oncology nurses in Jordon. Methods: A cross-sectional study was employed that included a convenience sample of 153 oncology nurses. Oncology nurses from two hospitals completed the Chemotherapy Handling Questionnaire. Descriptive analysis, Spearman rank correlation coefficients, and regression analyses were performed to determine the predictors of precaution use when handling hazardous drugs among participants. Findings: We observed that age, number of patients for whom the worker administered chemotherapy per day, the number of patients receiving chemotherapy per day in the participant’s work unit, nurses’ knowledge about safe-handling precautions, perceived risk, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, organization influence/workplace safety climate, conflict of interest, and interpersonal influences were predictors of use of safe-handling precautions (adjusted R2 = .66, p < .001). Conclusion/Application for Practice: Several predictors for using safe-handling precautions were identified. Clinically, chemotherapy handling procedures should be evaluated frequently to identify barriers to safe practices and to improve worker safety.

Abstract:
Problem: Nurses are potentially exposed to hazardous drugs (HDs) in their practice. HD exposure is associated with adverse outcomes (reproductive problems, learning disabilities in offspring of nurses exposed during pregnancy, and cancer occurrence). Safe handling precautions (safety equipment and personal protective equipment, [PPE]) minimize exposure to HDs and decrease the potential for adverse outcomes. Despite existing OSHA recommendations, adherence to precautions is below recommendations. The purpose of this study was to examine relationships among factors affecting nurses’ use of HD safe handling precautions, to identify factors that promote or interfere with HD precaution use, and to determine nurse managers’ perspectives on use of safe handling precautions. This study used a conceptual model which proposes that both individual and organizational factors influence precaution use. Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational design was used. Nurses (N = 165; 46% response rate) from oncology centers across the US who reported handling chemotherapy completed a mailed survey. Instruments measured HD precaution use, knowledge, self efficacy, barriers, perceived risk, conflict of interest, interpersonal influences and workplace safety climate. Hierarchical regression was used. Twenty managers of nurses handling chemotherapy were interviewed. Results: Nurses were experienced in oncology (M = 15.8 ± 7.6) yrs, well-educated (62.5% ≥BSN), certified in oncology nursing (85%), worked in outpatient settings (69%), and on average treated 6.8 ± 5.2 patients per day. Chemotherapy exposure knowledge was high (M = 10.9, ± 1, 0-12 scale); as was self efficacy for using PPE (M = 20.8 ± 3, 7-24 scale), and perceived risk (M = 3.14 ± .6, 0-4 scale). Total precaution use during HD administration and disposal was low (M = 1.9, SD = 1.1, 0= never to 5 = 100%). Nurse characteristics did not predict HD precaution use. In the final model (R2 = .29, F (2, 155) = 24.6, p < .000), fewer patients per day, fewer barriers and better workplace safety climate were independent predictors of higher precaution use. Conclusions: Results emphasize the importance of organizational influence on nurses’ HD safe handling precaution use and suggest fostering a positive workplace safety climate and reducing barriers as interventions.

Abstract:
Magister Public Health - MPH
Introduction: The Universal Safety Precautions (USP) are a set of principles including practices and protocols, which is meant to reduce or prevent occupational exposures to blood borne pathogens among health care workers (HCWs), during the course of their duties in health care settings. Globally and in Nigeria, significant number of HCWs are currently being exposed to blood and other body fluids while working in the hospital setting (Amoran, 2013; Samuel et al., 2008; Akinboro et al., 2012; Ajibola et al., 1994; Okechukwu et al., 2012). These exposures contribute annually to about 16,000 HCV infections and 66,000 HBV infections among HCWs worldwide (Prüss-Üstün et al., 2003) and about 1000 cases of HIV per annum in Nigeria since the first recorded case in 1984 (Okechukwu et al., 2012; Patricia et al., 2007). The objectives of the study were to describe the awareness of the USP among HCWs in Kogi State Specialist Hospital (KSSH), Lokoja and to describe the adherence to the USP among HCWs at KSSH. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among HCWs working in departments where contacts with patients' blood and other body fluids are possible in KSSH. An anonymous self-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. Analysis of the data collected was with Software Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) V23.0.0 for Mac. Results: Of the 125 participants that returned their questionnaires, 37.6% were nurses, 17.6% were doctors and the remainder were laboratory staff, dentists and hospital attendants. Sixty four percent (64%) of them were females, 49.6% had tertiary education while their average age was 38.5 years. Awareness of and adherence to the USP were observed to be 5.6% and 2.4% respectively. Statistically, complete awareness of the USP was not significantly associated with complete adherence to the USP. More so, 3% and 2.2% of the participants with the number of years in services within the ranges of 5-9 years and 1-4 years respectively had complete adherence to the USP. Statistically significant association was only noted between participants' age and complete adherence to the USP. Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) were the two USP principles with the lowest levels of awareness and adherence, with 46% and 47.6% on awareness respectively and, 43.8% and 44.6% on adherence respectively. Conclusion: The levels of awareness of and adherence to the USP among the HCWs in KSSH were observed to be very low. There is an urgent need for capacity building of the HCWs on the USP in the form of trainings, and in the long term, there is need to conduct a study to assess possible reasons for the observed outcome.

Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to examine both the individual and organizational level factors contributing to the safety related behaviours of nurses. Effects of the individual level factors on safety behaviour of nurses were analyzed within the theoretical framework of Ajzen&rsquo
s (1991) Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) and effects of the organizational level factors were analyzed through safety climate perceptions of the nurses. Data were collected from nurses (N=274) of two different private hospitals located in Ankara and their first line supervisors (N=34).Participants filled out the questionnaires including scales of TPB (i.e., subjective norm, attitude toward the behaviour, perceived behavioural control, and intention), safety climate perceptions and compliance to Standard Safety Precautions. The outcome variable was the compliance to the Standard Safety Precautions as rated by the first line supervisors of the nurses. Subjective norm was found to be the only significant predictor of the nurses&rsquo
intention to adhere to the Standard Safety Precautions. Contrary to the hypothesized relationships, intention and perceived behavioural control did not contribute significantly to the prediction of safety behaviour rated by the first line supervisors. Furthermore, teamwork dimension of safety climate perceptions was found to be the only significant predictor of compliance to the Standard Safety Precautions. The results are discussed with practical implications of the findings.Contributions of the study are presented followed by the limitations and some future research suggestions.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to explore if consumers evaluate CSR more into their purchase criterion compared to before the Covid-19 pandemic. CSR activities, consumer buying behavior, and CSR as a purchase criterion were combined in a conceptual framework. The consumer decision-making model was used as a framework in consumer buying behavior. In CSR as a purchase criterion, three factors were used to conclude if consumers started to evaluate CSR more as a purchase criterion. The empirical data was collected through two semi-structured focus groups. Group A was ensembled through a convenience sampling method but evolved to a snowball effect. Group B was ensembled through a purposive sampling method. The findings indicated that consumers did not start to evaluate CSR more as a purchase criterion. The main reason was the financial situation. However, consumers have started to buy more sustainable food, especially locally produced during the pandemic which indicated an increased awareness towards CSR as a purchase criterion. The findings also showed that the Covid-19 pandemic influenced consumers' awareness of CSR but the implemented safety precautions in grocery stores had a limited effect on consumers. The research field of consumer buying behavior in the context of CSR can be complemented with the findings in this study. This study contributed to a deeper understanding of consumer buying behavior and if they value CSR in their purchases during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
This research project aims to investigate the level of risk/safety inherent in intermediate floors of buildings designed to the Compliance Document for the New Zealand Building Code, Fire Safety Clauses C1, C2, C3, C4 (C/AS1), and develop guidance for Fire Engineers on designing fire safety for firecells containing intermediate floors. The project also aims to develop a new set of prescriptive fire safety requirements for intermediate floors and proposes an outline of a verification method for designing fire safety for intermediate floors. This study includes a literature review of the fire safety requirements for intermediate floors (mezzanines) of prescriptive requirements in New Zealand and other countries such as USA, Canada, UK and Australia. The results of this literature review found that the intermediate floor size is limited and varies with country. An intermediate floor that has an area exceeding the limit set out by the prescriptive requirements is considered as a storey in all the countries prescriptive requirements reviewed including the New Zealand prescriptive requirements prior to 1991. Since 1991, in New Zealand Acceptable Solutions, the intermediate floor that has an area exceeding the limit will not be treated as a storey, however, a smoke control system is required. The level of risk was quantified using a factor of safety (FoS) - the ratio of Available Safe Egress Time (ASET) to Required Safe Egress Time (RSET). Two fire models; BRANZFIRE and FDS were used to calculate ASET and SIMULEX, an evacuation program, was used to calculate movement times of the occupants of the studied buildings. Unlike the traditional method in which RSET and FoS are assessed using single value, in this project the distribution of RSET and FoS were assessed using the @RISK software package. The analysis showed that the level of risk to the occupants of the firecells containing intermediate floors is always higher than that of the equivalent firecells without intermediate floors with the same occupant load and the differences in FoS range from 10% to 60%. The analysis also highlighted that the level of risk to the occupants of firecells having intermediate floors increases as the intermediate floor size increases, however, there are no clear cut-off points at which a higher level of fire safety precaution should be provided. The cut-off points in C/AS1 of 20% for a closed intermediate floor and 40% for an open intermediate floor, are not justified by this analysis. Occupant load has significant impact on the level of safety of the occupants of the firecells containing intermediate floors. The higher the occupant load the lower the level of safety is. The definitions for open and closed intermediate floors are proposed to which open and closed intermediate floors are clearly distinguished. The term “limited area intermediate floor” in the current C/AS1 is proposed be removed and all related clauses are proposed to be amended or deleted accordingly. A proposed new set of prescriptive fire safety requirements for intermediate floors has been developed based on the occupant load of intermediate floors and not the intermediate floor size in the form of a table similar to the current Table 4.1 of C/AS1. The occupant load and fire safety precautions (FSPs) of the intermediate floors are determined based on the occupant load and their required FSPs of the equivalent firecells without intermediate floors that have the same factor of safety with the firecells containing intermediate floors. With the proposed FSPs, a firecell with lower occupant load would require lesser fire safety requirements than a firecell with higher occupant load regardless of intermediate floor size. Moreover, with the proposed FSPs for intermediate floors, the level of safety of the occupants of the firecells having intermediate floors would be very similar to the level of safety of the equivalent firecells without intermediate floors. In addition to the proposed tables of FSPs, some clauses regarding the changes in the fire safety requirement and definitions for intermediate floors are proposed. Guidance for designers in designing fire safety for firecells containing intermediate floors in which the methods of modelling using BRANZFIRE and Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) are presented in detail, has been developed. The analysis has pointed out that the location of the exits is critical in designing fire safety for firecells containing intermediate floors and majority of exits from the lower floor should not be located under intermediate floors. Although one of the main objectives of this research project was to propose an outline of a verification method for designing fire safety for intermediate floors, the analysis showed that it is very difficult to develop a rational verification method for designing fire safety for firecells containing intermediate floors. Using the proposed FSPs for intermediate floors which are based on the occupant load of the intermediate floors in designing fire safety for firecells containing intermediate floors is recommended by this study. These recommendations do not preclude the use of specific fire engineering design for designing fire safety for firecells having intermediate floors.

This is a qualitative study, descriptive and exploratory, documentary analysis type developed in order to analyze the methodological trends and education measures for the prevention and control of infections for patient safety in undergraduate courses in Nursing. Six higher education institutions that offer undergraduate course in Nursing in classroom mode participated. The data were collected from the six Political Pedagogical Project (PPP) and 273 discipline plans of the six courses, and allowed the overview of the curriculum and teaching methodologies adopted. In five courses, the curriculum matrices are organized by subject, and a course adopts integrated curriculum with units and themes. Despite efforts of undergraduate courses for the adoption of innovative and advanced methods of teaching, some points of the teaching-learning process require changes. The assessment of learning was predominantly punctual in most undergraduate courses, contradicting the adoption of critical-reflexive methods specified in PPP. In addition, inconsistencies were found in some discipline plans because the objectives and the menus had no connection between them. It was observed discipline plans identical to previous semesters and to the other courses offered in the educational institutions. Another finding refers to the large number of subjects taught by the same teacher, who in one of the courses, a teacher teaches up to nine subjects. It is assumed that the high number of courses taught by each teacher, results in insufficient time for planning the teaching process that includes all measures of standard precaution, necessary for learning and competent professional practice. The results for Patient Safety show that because it is a recent issue, this issue is addressed in a few disciplines of undergraduate programs in nursing. The contents such as communication, interpersonal relationships, teamwork, understanding the organizational complexity and the teaching of prevention and control of infections, should be strengthened, transversely during graduation so that the nursing student develops skills needed for safe care. The teaching of the measures of prevention and control of infection does not appear explicitly in the PPP, only some of which discipline plans. The using and the handling of Personal Protective Equipment was a measure that appeared more frequently (46,2%), followed by hand hygiene (38,5%), cleaning and disinfecting equipment and surfaces (30,8%), disposal of sharps (20,5%). The measure less addressed in the courses was the processing of health products (15,4%). The adoption of criticalreflective methodologies for the teaching of prevention and infection control measures requires encouragement of HEI (Higher Education Institution) for teaching qualification, curriculum revision, review of PPP and discipline plans and student effort, considering that any nursing activity involves patient safety.
Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo, descritivo exploratório, do tipo análise documental desenvolvido com o objetivo de caracterizar as tendências metodológicas e o ensino das medidas de prevenção e controle de infecções para a segurança do paciente em cursos de graduação em enfermagem. Participaram seis Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) que oferecem Curso de Graduação em Enfermagem na modalidade presencial. Os dados foram coletados dos seis Projetos Pedagógicos dos Cursos (PPC) e de 273 planos de disciplina e permitiram a visualização geral da estrutura curricular e das metodologias de ensino adotadas. Em cinco cursos, as matrizes curriculares estão organizadas por disciplinas, e um curso adota matriz curricular integrada, com unidades e eixos temáticos. Apesar de esforços dos cursos de graduação para a adoção de metodologias inovadoras e avançadas de ensino, alguns pontos do processo de ensino-aprendizagem necessitam de mudanças. A avaliação da aprendizagem foi predominantemente pontual na maioria dos cursos de graduação, contradizendo a adoção de métodos crítico-reflexivos constantes nos PPC. Além disso, foram encontradas incoerências em alguns planos de disciplina, pois os objetivos e as ementas não apresentavam conexão entre eles. Observou-se planos de disciplina idênticos aos de semestres anteriores e aos de outros cursos oferecidos nas instituições de ensino. Outro achado refere-se ao número elevado de disciplinas ministradas pelos docentes que são responsáveis por disciplinas que abordam prevenção e controle de infecções. Em um dos cursos, um docente ministra até nove disciplinas. Presume-se que a elevada quantidade de disciplinas ministradas por um docente, culmina em tempo insuficiente, para o planejamento do processo de ensino que inclua todas as medidas de precaução padrão, necessárias para a aprendizagem e prática profissional competente. Os resultados referentes à Segurança do Paciente demonstraram que, essa temática é abordada em poucas disciplinas dos cursos de graduação em enfermagem. Os conteúdos como a comunicação, o relacionamento interpessoal, o trabalho em equipe, a compreensão da complexidade organizacional e o ensino das medidas de prevenção e controle de infecções devem ser reforçados, de forma transversal durante a graduação, para que o estudante de enfermagem desenvolva competências necessárias para a assistência segura. O ensino das medidas de prevenção e controle de infecções não aparece de forma explícita nos PPC, apenas em alguns planos de disciplina. O uso e manuseio de Equipamentos de Proteção Individual foi a medida que apareceu com maior frequência (46,2%), seguida de Higiene das Mãos (38,5%), limpeza e desinfecção de equipamentos e superfícies (30,8%), descarte de perfurocortantes (20,5%). A medida menos abordada nos cursos foi o processamento de produtos para a saúde (15,4%). A adoção de metodologias crítico-reflexivas para o ensino das medidas de prevenção e controle de infecções requer incentivo das IES para a qualificação docente, com revisão dos PPC e planos de disciplina e, esforço dos estudantes, considerando que toda e qualquer atividade de enfermagem envolve a segurança do paciente.

Abstract:
The topic of this Diploma's thesis is Road safety inspection in the Zlín region. To start off, I was given 14 dangerous locations in the region of Zlín by the Road Services of Kroměříž; 7 of them at crossroads and 7 outside of crossroads. Then I analysed accident risks and compared the locations among each other according to safety features. Based on the outcome of my analysis, then I chose 2 locations at crossroads and 2 outside of crossroads which I personally visited and conducted analysis on how safe they are. I uncovered potential risks which could lead to traffic accidents and suggested solutions that eliminate or minimise that risk.

Abstract:
According to the management and scheduled inspection of pressure vessels and piping in sulfur recovery unit, it described the evaluation of the failure probability and consequences of pressure vessels and piping by the Risk Based Inspection (RBI). This article focuses on the practical application process of RBI to the Sulfur Recovery Unit. Together with the production crafts and loop medium in pressure vessels and pipes, we could dig out high risk equipment and its’ reasons, therefore, suggest possible precautions. Further precautions will be provided for equipment manufacturers to assure production safety through personal experiential analysis and comparison with the similar product from the aspect of failure mechanism and position. It is aimed to explore the combined method of RBI and personal experiential analysis and it’s practical application.

Abstract:
Turkey has had two major mine accidents recently. In 2014, three hundred and one (301) miners died in the Soma coal mine accident and about five months later, in October 2014, eighteen miners lost their lives in Ermenek. In June 2012, a new Occupational Health and Safety Law entered into force. Although this law brought serious clauses for the organizations to take precautions to prevent such accidents, it was not applied properly for some reasons. First, it was ignored by the businesses as it brought financial burden for them. Second, workers could not express their views individually because they did not have a union to do it for them. The third and most important reason was that; businesses were not inspected properly. As a result of these accidents, The Turkish Grand National Assembly approved the ILO Mine Workers’ Health and Safety Agreement No. 176 in December 2014. Before Turkey, this agreement had been approved by 29 countries among 185 ILO members including Zambia, USA, Finland, Albania and Germany. These frequent mine accidents get serious reactions from the public. Therefore, unionization must be compulsory in mine businesses and inspections must be more effective.
