ULTRASOUND FETAL KIDNEY LENGTH FOR ASSESSMENT OF GESTATIONAL AGE
Authors: Shah Jitesh 
Published: April 2024

Fetal kidney length (FKL) has recently been found to have a strong correlation with gestational age. According to the findings of these investigations, the fetal kidney length may be utilized to estimate gestational age when dates are ambiguous or when women seek ultrasound fetal biometry dating during the third trimester itself.
GA estimation is also a prerequisite to interpret certain tests (amniotic fluid assay, serum assay, chorionic villus sampling) and to plan timing of various forms of fetal therapy. Failure in estimating GA accurately can result in unnecessary induction, dysfunctional labor, operative delivery, iatrogenic prematurity or post maturity, false interpretation of tests and delay or failure of fetal therapy, thereby increasing perinatal morbidity and mortality.
This review looks in to various studies assessing correlation of Fetal kidney length with gestational age in third trimester of pregnancy and provide a comprehensive view on use of Fetal kidney length for estimation of gestational age in third trimester of pregnancy.
Factors Associated with Caregiver Decision Not to Transport Pediatric Patients Assessed by Emergency Medical Services
Authors: Johnson Kristen , Ward Caleb 
Published: April 2024

Objectives: Almost one third of pediatric 9-1-1 calls result in non-transport by Emergency Medical Services (EMS). It is unknown to what extent these decisions are driven by caregivers’ decisions to decline transport versus EMS advice that transport is unnecessary. Further, it is unknown whether demographic, encounter, or agency factors are associated with caregivers declining transport.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study with data from the national 2019 ESO Data Collaborative (a convenience sample with data from > 2,000 EMS agencies). We included 9-1-1 responses for children <18 years. The primary outcome was caregiver decision not to transport patient (per EMS documentation) compared to EMS-initiated non-transport. Descriptive data for patient dispositions were generated. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with caregiver decision not to transport.
Results: Of 313,903 pediatric 9-1-1 activations, 37.2% resulted in non-transport, with 80.0% of pediatric non-transports attributable to a caregiver decision. The patient and encounter characteristics for children not transported by EMS were similar, regardless of whether the caregiver or EMS clinician made the decision not to transport. There was wide inter-agency variation in both the rate of non-transport (median 0.37, interquartile range (IQR 0.25 – 0.48)) and the proportion of these encounters attributable to a caregiver decision (median 0.82, IQR 0.68-0.94).
Conclusions: In this large national dataset, pediatric non-transport by EMS was common, and in most cases non-transport was documented to result from a caregiver decision. Both the rates of non-transport and proportion of caregiver decision varied significantly between EMS agencies. Further research is needed to understand pediatric patient outcomes after non-transport and to identify the reasons for practice variability between EMS agencies. Developing standardized, evidence-based non-transport protocols for children may help reduce this potentially unwarranted clinical variation.
Assessing the Accuracy of ECG Chest Electrode Placement by EMS and Clinical Personnel Using Two Evaluation Methods
Authors: Clopton Edwin , Hyrkäs Eira Kristiina 
Published: April 2024

Background and purpose: A valid 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) depends on correct acquisition technique, particularly on the accurate location of precordial (chest) electrodes. The emergency medical services (EMS) segment of the care continuum is under-represented in previous clinically oriented studies of electrode placement. This study sought to assess the accuracy of chest electrode placement by EMS and clinical personnel in one geographic area, to identify patterns of misplacement to inform future training and continuing education, and to compare two methods of assessing electrode placement.
Methods: This prospective observational study recruited a convenience sample of EMS and clinical personnel. Participants placed simulated electrodes on a CPR-style manikin and completed a questionnaire about their training and experience. A subset also marked electrode locations on a printed diagram of the ribcage. Digitized placement data and questionnaire responses were analysed statistically.
Results: Findings from 149 participants showed misplacement patterns consistent with prior studies, with 41.6% rated as “acceptable” and 34.2% placing £ 3 electrodes acceptably. Correctness of electrode placement was comparable between EMS and clinical participants. More correct electrode placement correlated with classroom vs. on-the-job training, frequent vs. infrequent practice, and greater self-confidence. The diagram data collection method proved not equivalent to, and probably less reliable than, the hands-on manikin method for assessing placement skills.
Conclusions: Significant variation in ECG chest electrode placement by EMS personnel was comparable to that previously reported for clinical personnel, suggesting that existing concerns about placement errors by clinical personnel may apply equally to EMS personnel. More frequent practice and classroom-based initial ECG training were associated with significantly greater placement accuracy. Participants used diverse strategies to identify electrode locations. Further research is warranted to clarify optimal strategies for placing chest electrodes, especially on diverse body types. Sound initial ECG training and continuing education are necessary to reinforce high-quality ECG skills.

Authors: Harmer Bryan , Ivey Melissa , Hoyle, Jr. John , Fogarty Kieran 
Published: April 2024

Background: Emergency Medical Service (EMS) clinicians render care in less than ideal environments, and errors occur at high rates. Some cognitive aids (CAs) have been shown to reduce errors and improve adherence to evidence-based practices. However, there have been no widespread studies examining CA use in EMS. The objective of this study was to examine the frequency of CA use by EMS clinicians and which clinicians were using them more frequently during patient care.
Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was developed using a modified Delphi method with items examining demographic information and the frequency that 15 selected CAs are used during patient care. A survey link was emailed to 136,093 EMS clinicians across six states (TX, ME, MI, LA, SC, and AR). Descriptive statistics were used to describe frequencies. Kruskal-Wallis was used to assess if use differed among demographic or employment groups, and Spearman correlation was used to examine the relationship between clinician age and CA use.
Results: A total of 2,251 respondents were included in the study after meeting the inclusion criteria. Of the 15 CAs examined, the length-based tape was the most used (Med= 3.0, IQR: 1.0 – 4.0). Overall CA use was limited, with a median score of 1.67 (IQR: 1.07 – 2.27). The following groups reported more frequent use of CAs: females (Med= 1.87, IQR: 1.27-2.47), Hispanics (Med= 1.93, IQR: 1.33-2.67), Black/African Americans (Med= 2.00, IQR: 1.20-2.53), air medical clinicians (Med= 2.00, IQR: 1.60-2.40) and clinicians working in military settings (Med= 2.23, IQR: 1.80-2.80). A small negative correlation was identified with age (r = -0.06, p = .005).
Conclusions: Overall, CA use in EMS is limited. More effort is needed to increase their use in EMS. This data may provide insight to better target areas of need, improve design, and improve implementation of CAs in EMS.
Relationship Between Emotional Intelligence, Self-Compassion and Wellbeing in Ambulance Staff
Authors: Parker Beth , Ashton Amy , Fletcher Ian , Eccles Fiona 
Published: April 2024

Objective
Ambulance staff are at increased risk of negative wellbeing outcomes, though there is a lack of research into their wellbeing. This study aims to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and self-compassion, two factors related to positive wellbeing in other populations, and the professional quality of life and psychological wellbeing of ambulance staff.
Methods
A within-participants cross-sectional survey was completed with UK ambulance staff. Data were collected via an anonymous online survey on participants’ demographics, emotional intelligence, self-compassion (separated into the subscales of self-coldness and self-kindness), compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction, and psychological wellbeing. The relationships between variables were first explored using Pearson’s r correlational analyses. Then three hierarchical multiple regressions were used to explore what predicted the outcome variables of compassion fatigue, compassion satisfaction and psychological wellbeing.
Results
146 ambulance staff completed the survey. Emotional intelligence and self-kindness correlated negatively with compassion fatigue, while self-coldness correlated positively with compassion fatigue; emotional intelligence and self-kindness correlated positively with both compassion satisfaction and psychological wellbeing, and self-coldness correlated negatively with compassion satisfaction and psychological wellbeing. In hierarchical multiple regression analyses, compassion fatigue was significantly predicted by greater self-coldness and years of experience; compassion satisfaction was predicted by greater emotional intelligence and fewer years of experience; and psychological wellbeing was predicted by greater emotional intelligence and lower self-coldness.
Conclusions
The findings indicated that emotional intelligence and self-coldness can predict aspects of professional and psychological wellbeing in ambulance staff. Self-kindness does not predict wellbeing in models with age, years of experience, emotional intelligence, and self-coldness. This suggests that enhancing emotional intelligence and reducing self-coldness could be targets in interventions to support ambulance staff wellbeing.

Published: April 2024

Objective: Paramedics are exposed to significant job-related stressors, which have been exacerbated by the pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the essential role that paramedics play in the health system, it is imperative that we understand how their health and wellbeing are affected by this range of stressors.
Methods: We conducted a mixed-methods, cross-sectional statewide survey of the Ambulance Organization workforce between August and November 2021. A total of 690 paramedics (i.e., operational staff) answered a quantitative question about operational and organizational job stressors, while a subset (N=151) provided a response to a free-text qualitative question about stress related to COVID-19.
Results: Quantitative data revealed that COVID-19-related stressors were more stressful than all other job-related factors at that time. In addition, paramedics reported moderate to high levels of stress for nearly three quarters of all stressors listed. Thematic analysis of the qualitative question showed that paramedics experienced: stress related to operational changes; personal protective equipment related stress; the everyday life impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic; work-related conflicts and concerns; exposure to COVID-19; vaccine-related stress; and issues with management and communication.
Conclusions: Paramedics have been significantly affected by the unique stressors brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, which have added strain onto an already stressful work environment. The stressors we have identified suggest that organizations should examine their internal practices and consider their impact on paramedics, along with offering mental health support to paramedics where appropriate.

Analysis of Train Travel Patterns Case Study of Bogor Double Track Construction - Sukabumi
Authors: Ependi Ahmad , Churniawan Erifendi 
Published: April 2024

In this study the aim is to analyze the problem of train travel that occurs with the change from single track to double track as well as changes in the layout of the emplacements, which increase the frequency of passenger and freight train trips. The data used in this study are primary and secondary. Primary data includes existing data on the Bogor-Sukabumi operation pattern obtained by interviewing West Java BTP and KAI employees. Secondary data includes data on train star formation, the type and number of trains, signal service time, and the speed of passenger and freight trains. In the planning of road plots in the Detailed Design of Double Tracks Between Bogor - Cigombong, it is not directly affected by traffic capacity. This is because road plots can be divided into several block plots, which is very different from the single-lane system. To reduce Headway or the same as to increase traffic capacity, simply by adding IB (Intermediate Block) between the distances of AB stations (AB (km) S) in the formula, if 1 (one) IB is installed, then the distance of the road plot is divided by two, if 2 (two) IBs are installed, then the distance of the road plot is divided by three and so on. The analysis study of operational patterns on the Bogor-Sukabumi line shows that with the plan to increase the frequency of trains and the construction of a double track, there will be a decrease in the Headway from 10.38 to 7.1.

Stroke is a disease caused by impaired blood circulation to the brain. This disease is a non-communicable disease that can be prevented by controlling stroke risk factors. STRIC (Stroke Risk Score Card) is a stroke risk detection application resulting from the development of a stroke risk detection model by the National Stroke Association. This study aims to determine the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the application of the early stroke risk detection model (STRIC) in detecting stroke risk. Descriptive analytics by conducting stroke risk assessment using the Stroke Risk Scorecard (STRIC) App. The total sample was 60 people, consisting of 30 post-stroke people and 30 non-stroke people. The sensitivity value of the STRIC application is 91.67% which means that the ability to predict stroke risk for those who have experienced a stroke is very high. The specificity value of the STRIC application was 77.78%; this means that the measurement capability of the STRIC application provides a non-stroke (negative) result of 77.78% or very good. The accuracy value of the STRIC application is 83.33%, which means that the ability of the STRIC application to detect the risk of stroke in all subjects tested correctly is 83.33%. Applying the STRIC application can help prevent stroke and improve the prognosis for high-risk individuals.
