A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study Assessing the Psycho-Emotional State of Intensive Care Units’ Physicians and Nurses of COVID-19 Hospitals of a Russian Metropolis

Working in intensive care units (ICUs) is stressful and potentially leads to various psychoemotional disorders. Today, this issue represents a serious concern to the healthcare sector and affects the quality of healthcare provided. This study aimed to assess and compare the psycho-emotional state in COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 hospitals’ ICU healthcare workers (HCWs). From January to July 2021, we conducted an anonymous cross-sectional web survey of ICU physicians and nurses (N = 1259) of various hospitals in a metropolis with a population of over 10 million people. The statistical distributions of non-COVID-19 ICU HCWs showed the following results: emotional exhaustion levels (low 14.6%, average 30.8%, and high 54.6%); depersonalization levels (low 11.6%, average 16.5%, and high 71.9%); and reduced personal accomplishment levels (low 23.5%, average 40.3%, and high 36.2%). The statistical distributions of COVID-19 ICU HCWs showed the following results: emotional exhaustion levels (low 16.5%, average 31.5%, and high 52%); depersonalization levels (low 7.4%, average 9.4%, and high 83.1%); and reduced personal accomplishment levels (low 25.4%, average 45.4%, and high 29.1%). This study found a strong correlation between emotional exhaustion, aggression, and depersonalization in non-COVID-19 ICU HCWs and also found a correlation between their age, aggression, emotional exhaustion, and occupational stress

Saliva crystallography in patients receiving chemoradiotherapy in virtue of head and neck tumors results

Radiation therapy, chemotherapy or surgery is recommended for early treatment of head and neck cancers according to current standards. Radiation and chemoradiation therapy of head and neck tumors leads to the development of acute and chronic radiation complications in the oral cavity. Objective: to conduct a qualitative assessment of saliva by crystallography in patients receiving chemoradiation therapy for head and neck neoplasms. In the period from 2020 to 2021, 50 patients with oral mucositis of varying severity were examined, who received antitumor treatment at the Russian Scientific Center for Roentgenoradiology (RSCRR). Separation of patients: in the I group, dental support was carried out in the form of correcting the skills of individual oral hygiene. In the II group were used prolongedaction herbal preparations toothpaste based. The results were evaluated using saliva crystallography and oral hygiene. The obtained results of saliva crystallography prove the effectiveness of the use of prolongedaction herbal preparations in patients with oral mucositis of varying severity, receiving chemoradiation therapy. The advantage of morphological analysis of salivary facies is simplicity, non-invasiveness and is an inexpensive way to assess the health of the oral cavity © 2022.
