    Objective: Determine the relationship between Satisfaction, Motivation, Position and Hierarchy with the symptoms of work stress in workers of a courier company. Methods: Quantitative, correlational and cross-sectional study in a random sample. The motivation and labor satisfaction test and the Stress Symptoms Questionnaire were applied.Results: Were surveyed 72 workers from a company in Guadalajara Mexico. 64% (46) were male. The average age was 35 (±12.72) years. Marital status was predominantly married in 42% (30) participants. High scores were found in the dimensions of labor satisfaction 74% (53), position and hierarchy 62% (45), likewise the workers indicated to be moderately motivated 60% (43). In relation to the symptomatology of work stress, 69% (50), indicated to have physical symptoms while 40% (29) mental symptoms. Regarding the inferential analysis, a weak, inverse and significant correlation was found between the motivation dimensions (r= -0.276) and satisfaction (r= -0.323) with mental symptoms of stress. As well as a moderate and inverse correlation with the dimension of position and hierarchy with mental symptoms of stress (r= -0.401, p= 0.000)Conclusions: Motivation, satisfaction, position and hierarchy, can be considered as protective factors, before the symptoms of work stress.Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre Satisfacción, Motivación, Posición y Jerarquía con los síntomas de estrés laboral en trabajadores de una empresa de mensajería.Métodos: Estudio cuantitativo, correlacional y transversal en una muestra aleatoria. Se aplicó el test de Motivación y Satisfacción Laboral y el Cuestionario de Síntomas de estrés.Resultados: Se encuestó a 72 trabajadores de una empresa de Guadalajara México. El 64% (46) fueron masculinos y 36% (26), femeninos. La edad media fue 35 (± 12.72) años. Estado civil predominante fue casados en 42% (30) participantes. Se encontraron puntuaciones altas en las dimensiones deSatisfacción Laboral 74% (53), Posición y jerarquía 62% (45), así mismo los trabajadores indicaron sentirse medianamente motivados 60% (43). En relación con la sintomatología de estrés laboral, el 69% (50), indicaron tener síntomas físicos mientras que 40% (29) síntomas mentales. En cuanto al análisis inferencialse encontró una correlación débil, inversa y significativa entre las dimensiones de motivación (r=-.276) y satisfacción (r= -0.323) con síntomas mentales de estrés. Así como una correlación modera e inversa con la dimensión de posición y jerarquía con síntomas mentales de estrés (r= -0.401, p= 0.000).Conclusiones: La motivación, satisfacción, posición y jerarquía, se pueden considerar como factores protectores, ante los síntomas de estrés laboral

    Summary: Background: Anti-COVID-19 hyperimmune immunoglobulin (hIG) can provide standardized and controlled antibody content. Data from controlled clinical trials using hIG for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19 outpatients have not been reported. We assessed the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous anti-COVID-19 hyperimmune immunoglobulin 20% (C19-IG20%) compared to placebo in preventing development of symptomatic COVID-19 in asymptomatic individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods: We did a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, in asymptomatic unvaccinated adults (≥18 years of age) with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection within 5 days between April 28 and December 27, 2021. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive a blinded subcutaneous infusion of 10 mL with 1 g or 2 g of C19-IG20%, or an equivalent volume of saline as placebo. The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants who remained asymptomatic through day 14 after infusion. Secondary endpoints included the proportion of individuals who required oxygen supplementation, any medically attended visit, hospitalisation, or ICU, and viral load reduction and viral clearance in nasopharyngeal swabs. Safety was assessed as the proportion of patients with adverse events. The trial was terminated early due to a lack of potential benefit in the target population in a planned interim analysis conducted in December 2021. ClinicalTrials.gov registry: NCT04847141. Findings: 461 individuals (mean age 39.6 years [SD 12.8]) were randomized and received the intervention within a mean of 3.1 (SD 1.27) days from a positive SARS-CoV-2 test. In the prespecified modified intention-to-treat analysis that included only participants who received a subcutaneous infusion, the primary outcome occurred in 59.9% (91/152) of participants receiving 1 g C19-IG20%, 64.7% (99/153) receiving 2 g, and 63.5% (99/156) receiving placebo (difference in proportions 1 g C19-IG20% vs. placebo, −3.6%; 95% CI -14.6% to 7.3%, p = 0.53; 2 g C19-IG20% vs placebo, 1.1%; −9.6% to 11.9%, p = 0.85). None of the secondary clinical efficacy endpoints or virological endpoints were significantly different between study groups. Adverse event rate was similar between groups, and no severe or life-threatening adverse events related to investigational product infusion were reported. Interpretation: Our findings suggested that administration of subcutaneous human hyperimmune immunoglobulin C19-IG20% to asymptomatic individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection was safe but did not prevent development of symptomatic COVID-19.

    The surgical safety checklist and patient outcomes after surgery: a prospective observational cohort study, systematic review and meta-analysis

    Get PDF
    © 2017 British Journal of Anaesthesia Background: The surgical safety checklist is widely used to improve the quality of perioperative care. However, clinicians continue to debate the clinical effectiveness of this tool. Methods: Prospective analysis of data from the International Surgical Outcomes Study (ISOS), an international observational study of elective in-patient surgery, accompanied by a systematic review and meta-analysis of published literature. The exposure was surgical safety checklist use. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality and the secondary outcome was postoperative complications. In the ISOS cohort, a multivariable multi-level generalized linear model was used to test associations. To further contextualise these findings, we included the results from the ISOS cohort in a meta-analysis. Results are reported as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals. Results: We included 44 814 patients from 497 hospitals in 27 countries in the ISOS analysis. There were 40 245 (89.8%) patients exposed to the checklist, whilst 7508 (16.8%) sustained ≥1 postoperative complications and 207 (0.5%) died before hospital discharge. Checklist exposure was associated with reduced mortality [odds ratio (OR) 0.49 (0.32–0.77); P\u3c0.01], but no difference in complication rates [OR 1.02 (0.88–1.19); P=0.75]. In a systematic review, we screened 3732 records and identified 11 eligible studies of 453 292 patients including the ISOS cohort. Checklist exposure was associated with both reduced postoperative mortality [OR 0.75 (0.62–0.92); P\u3c0.01; I2=87%] and reduced complication rates [OR 0.73 (0.61–0.88); P\u3c0.01; I2=89%). Conclusions: Patients exposed to a surgical safety checklist experience better postoperative outcomes, but this could simply reflect wider quality of care in hospitals where checklist use is routine

    Background The Clavien–Dindo classification is perhaps the most widely used approach for reporting postoperative complications in clinical trials. This system classifies complication severity by the treatment provided. However, it is unclear whether the Clavien–Dindo system can be used internationally in studies across differing healthcare systems in high- (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods This was a secondary analysis of the International Surgical Outcomes Study (ISOS), a prospective observational cohort study of elective surgery in adults. Data collection occurred over a 7-day period. Severity of complications was graded using Clavien–Dindo and the simpler ISOS grading (mild, moderate or severe, based on guided investigator judgement). Severity grading was compared using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Data are presented as frequencies and ICC values (with 95 per cent c.i.). The analysis was stratified by income status of the country, comparing HICs with LMICs. Results A total of 44 814 patients were recruited from 474 hospitals in 27 countries (19 HICs and 8 LMICs). Some 7508 patients (16·8 per cent) experienced at least one postoperative complication, equivalent to 11 664 complications in total. Using the ISOS classification, 5504 of 11 664 complications (47·2 per cent) were graded as mild, 4244 (36·4 per cent) as moderate and 1916 (16·4 per cent) as severe. Using Clavien–Dindo, 6781 of 11 664 complications (58·1 per cent) were graded as I or II, 1740 (14·9 per cent) as III, 2408 (20·6 per cent) as IV and 735 (6·3 per cent) as V. Agreement between classification systems was poor overall (ICC 0·41, 95 per cent c.i. 0·20 to 0·55), and in LMICs (ICC 0·23, 0·05 to 0·38) and HICs (ICC 0·46, 0·25 to 0·59). Conclusion Caution is recommended when using a treatment approach to grade complications in global surgery studies, as this may introduce bias unintentionally
