The Nature of Paramedic Practice in Rural and Remote Locations: A Scoping Review
Authors: Spencer-Goodsir Heulwen , Anderson Judith , Sutton Clare 
Published: July 2022

Introduction Access to emergency healthcare services and specialist care – particularly paramedic services – is more restricted in the rural and remote areas of Australia, and this disparity is amplified further as remoteness increases. This review aims to investigate the availability of current research regarding both the expanding nature of paramedicine roles in rural environments, and the impacts of rurality on the quality of out-of-hospital care provided to patients. Methods Arksey and O'Malley's six-step methodological approach was used to perform a scoping review to assess the availability of literature. Key words including paramedic*, regional, rural, remote and role were inputted into the search engines Scopus, CINAHL and PubMed. Titles and abstracts of the 864 results were screened by all authors and inclusion/exclusion criteria applied, resulting in 13 remaining articles. Results The final 13 articles comprised differing data collection types and methodologies from nine separate studies conducted in either Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, Saudi Arabia or Qatar. Approximately 2.5 million patients, 534 paramedics, 331 other healthcare professionals and 35 case studies were included in the total combined results of these studies. Conclusion Rural communities demonstrated increased mortality rates in out-of-hospital patients due to several factors including rostering, specialist service locations and limited resource availability. Factors which were beneficial to the outcomes of patients in rural settings included enhanced paramedic scopes of practice, the implementation of community paramedicine programmes and wider roles within the community for paramedics. A lack of research on the exact nature of these changing roles in rural paramedicine is evident.

O conceito de nutrição sustentável, se relaciona com o modo de tratarmos tanto o meio ambiente, quanto à saúde dos seres humanos, sendo um reflexo da forma que utilizamos os recursos naturais. O presente estudo, teve como objetivo principal, compreender como a nutrição sustentável gera impacto nutricional e ambiental. Verifica-se que é um estudo de revisão integrativa da literatura, abordando a temática. As buscas bibliográficas, foi por meio das bases de dados periódicos CAPES, MEDLINE, SCIELO, por meio dos Decs (descritores em ciência da saúde), envolvendo artigos de revisão, monografias e livros. Ao final da pesquisa, atendendo aos critérios de inclusão e exclusão de artigos, foram analisados os 17 trabalhos mais relevantes. Foi percebido que a nutrição sustentável busca reduzir as emissões de gases de efeito estufa, a erosão do solo, o gasto de energia e água na cadeia de produção de alimentos, e elevar a biodiversidade e a quantidade de vitaminas, minerais e fitoquímicos. Em linhas gerais, os autores estudados concordam que uma dieta com baixo impacto ambiental é geralmente consistente com uma boa nutrição. As dietas mais sustentáveis conteriam elevada proporção de plantas e baixa proporção de animais e seriam extremamente heterogêneas.

Abstrak

Dalam rangka mempertahankan kedaulatan dan keutuhan wilayah suatu negara maka dibutuhkan pertahanan yang kuat dan tangguh guna menghadapi ancaman yang mungkin datang dari luar negara maupun dalam negara, dilakukan oleh state actor maupun non state actor. Indonesia menganut Sistem pertahanan semesta (Sishanta) yaitu suatu sistem pertahanan yang melibatan seluruh komponen bangsa untuk turut serta dalam usaha pertahanan negara, karena sejatinya usaha pertahanan bukan hanya tanggung jawab anggota Tentara Nasional Indonesia (TNI) namun juga menjadi hak dan kewajiban seluruh rakyat Indonesia khususnya Aparatur Sipil Negara (ASN), yang merupakan alat negara dan berfungsi sebagai pemersatu bangsa. Sishanta terdiri dari tiga komponen yaitu: komponen utama, komponen cadangan, dan komponen pendukung. Kementerian Pendayagunaan Aparatur Negara dan Reformasi Birokrasi (MenPAN-RB) menerbitkan surat edaran Nomor 27 Tahun 2021 sebagai landasan hukum bagi partisipasi ASN dalam pelatihan komponen cadangan (komcad) nasional, ASN diharapkan bergabung sebagai komcad dalam rangka memperkuat pertahanan negara. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif dengan melakukan literature review. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa partisipasi ASN pada program komcad masih sangat rendah yakni hanya sebesar 0,05% dari total keseluruhan ASN yang memenuhi syarat usia untuk mendaftar.

Published: July 2022

IntroductionHyperglycemia is associated with a higher cardiovascular risk, as evidenced by increased carotid-intima media thickness (CIMT) in youth with diabetes. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effect of pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions on CIMT in children and adolescents with prediabetes or diabetes.MethodsWe conducted systematic searches of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL, together with supplementary searches in trial registers and other sources for studies completed up to September 2019. Interventional studies assessing ultrasound CIMT in children and adolescents with prediabetes or diabetes were considered for inclusion. Where appropriate, data were pooled across studies using random-effect meta-analysis. Quality was assessed using The Cochrane Collaboration’s risk-of-bias tool and a CIMT reliability tool.ResultsSix studies involving 644 children with type 1 diabetes mellitus were included. No study involved children with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluated the effects of metformin, quinapril, and atorvastatin. Three non-randomized studies, with a before-and-after design, evaluated the effects of physical exercise and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). The mean CIMT at baseline ranged from 0.40 to 0.51 mm. The pooled difference in CIMT was -0.01 mm (95% CI: -0.04 to 0.01) for metformin compared to placebo (2 studies; 135 participants; I2: 0%). The difference in CIMT was -0.01 mm (95% CI: -0.03 to 0.01) for quinapril compared to placebo (1 study; 406 participants). The mean change from baseline in CIMT was -0.03 mm (95% CI: -0.14 to 0.08) after physical exercise (1 study; 7 participants). Inconsistent results were reported for CSII or for atorvastatin. CIMT measurement was rated at a higher quality on all reliability domains in 3 (50%) studies. The confidence in results is limited by the low number of RCTs and their small sample sizes, as well as the high risk of bias in before-and-after studies.ConclusionsSome pharmacological interventions may decrease CIMT in children with type 1 diabetes. However, there is great uncertainty with respect to their effects and no strong conclusions can be drawn. Further evidence from larger RCTs is required.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO, CRD42017075169

ObjectiveDetermine differences in utilization patterns, disease severity, and outcomes between patients with and without diabetes mellitus diagnosed with COVID-19 in 2020Research Design and MethodsWe used an observational cohort comprised of Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries with a medical claim indicating a COVID-19 diagnosis. We performed inverse probability weighting between beneficiaries with and without diabetes to account for differences in socio-demographic characteristics and comorbidities.ResultsIn the unweighted comparison of beneficiaries, all characteristics were significantly different (P&lt;0.001). Beneficiaries with diabetes were younger, more likely to be black, had more comorbidities, higher rates of Medicare-Medicaid dual-eligibility, and were less likely to be female. In the weighted sample, hospitalization rates for COVID-19 among beneficiaries with diabetes was higher (20.5% vs 17.1%; p &lt; 0.001). Outcomes of hospitalizations were similarly worse among beneficiaries with diabetes: admissions to ICU during hospitalizations (7.78% vs. 6.11%; p &lt; 0.001); in-hospital mortality (3.85% vs 2.93%; p &lt; 0.001); and ICU mortality (2.41% vs 1.77%). Beneficiaries with diabetes had more ambulatory care visits (8.9 vs. 7.8, p &lt; 0.001) and higher overall mortality (17.3% vs. 14.9%, p &lt; 0.001) following COVID-19 diagnosis.ConclusionBeneficiaries with diabetes and COVID-19 had higher rates of hospitalization, ICU use and overall mortality. While the mechanism of how diabetes impacts the severity of COVID-19 may not be fully understood, there are important clinical implications for persons with diabetes. A diagnosis of COVID-19 leads to greater financial and clinical burden than for their counterparts, persons without diabetes, including perhaps most significantly, higher death rates.

In this investigation, a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) electrochemical sensor was evaluated. Prussian blue (PB) was electrodeposited at a glassy carbon (GC) electrode modified with titanium dioxide– and zirconia-doped functionalized carbon nanotubes (TiO2.ZrO2-fCNTs), obtaining the PB/TiO2.ZrO2-fCNTs/GC-modified electrode. The morphology and structure of the nanostructured material TiO2.ZrO2-fCNTs was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, the specific surface area was determined via Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The electrochemical properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. Titania-zirconia nanoparticles (5.0 ± 2.0 nm) with an amorphous structure were directly synthesized on the fCNT walls, aged during periods of 20 days, obtaining a well-dispersed distribution with a high surface area. The results indicated that the TiO2.ZrO2-fCNT–nanostructured material exhibits good electrochemical properties and could be tunable by enhancing the modification conditions and method of synthesis. Covering of the nanotubes with TiO2-ZrO2 nanoparticles is one of the main factors that affected immobilization and sensitivity of the electrochemical biosensor. The electrode modified with TiO2-ZrO2 nanoparticles with the 20-day aging time was superior regarding its reversibility, electric communication, and high sensitivity and improves the immobilization of the PB at the electrode. The fabricated sensor was used in the detection of H2O2 in whey milk samples, presenting a linear relationship from 100 to 1,000 μmol L−1 between H2O2 concentration and the peak current, with a quantification limit (LQ) of 59.78 μmol L−1 and a detection limit (LD) of 17.93 μmol L−1.

BackgroundSchistosomiasis is a severe parasitic disease that is primarily driven by the host’s immune response to schistosome eggs trapped in tissue and by the granulomatous inflammatory and fibrotic reaction they cause. Despite significant progress in understanding the complex immunological processes involved in the relationship between schistosomes and their host, neither an effective vaccine against the infection nor anti-fibrotic drugs currently exists, making the search for new targets for schistosome drugs and vaccine candidates even more important. In order to identify new molecular targets for defense against or elimination of the parasite, we investigate herein the interplay between the host and male or female schistosomes, clearly separating this from the action of the parasite eggs.MethodsFor this purpose, we infected 6–8-week-old female NMRI mice with 100 male (M), female (F), or both (MF)S. mansonicercariae and performed a comparative transcriptomic and flow cytometric analysis of their spleens.ResultsPrincipal component analysis of a total of 22,207 transcripts showed a clear clustering of the experimental groups. We identified a total of 1,293 genes in group M, 512 genes in group F, and 4,062 genes in group MF that were differentially expressed compared to naive controls. The highest percentage of regulated genes (2,972; 65.9%) was found in group MF alone, but there was a large overlap between groups M and MF (798; 17.7%) and a small overlap between groups F and MF (91; 2.0%). Only 4.5% of genes (201) were revealed to be regulated in all experimental groups (M/F/MF). In addition, we were able to show that both worm sexes trigger immune responses in an egg-independent manner (non-polarized Th1 and Th2 response), with female worms exerting less regulatory influence than males.ConclusionOur data show that adult schistosomes trigger sex-specific, egg-independent immune responses. The lists of genes regulated by adult female or male worms presented here may be useful in deciphering host–parasite interactions to identify targets for schistosome elimination.

BackgroundCardiac computed tomography (CCT) based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) allows to assess intracardiac flow features, which are hypothesized as an early predictor for heart diseases and may support treatment decisions. However, the understanding of intracardiac flow is challenging due to high variability in heart shapes and contractility. Using statistical shape modeling (SSM) in combination with CFD facilitates an intracardiac flow analysis. The aim of this study is to prove the usability of a new approach to describe various cohorts.Materials and MethodsCCT data of 125 patients (mean age: 60.6 ± 10.0 years, 16.8% woman) were used to generate SSMs representing aneurysmatic and non-aneurysmatic left ventricles (LVs). Using SSMs, seven group-averaged LV shapes and contraction fields were generated: four representing patients with and without aneurysms and with mild or severe mitral regurgitation (MR), and three distinguishing aneurysmatic patients with true, intermediate aneurysms, and globally hypokinetic LVs. End-diastolic LV volumes of the groups varied between 258 and 347 ml, whereas ejection fractions varied between 21 and 26%. MR degrees varied from 1.0 to 2.5. Prescribed motion CFD was used to simulate intracardiac flow, which was analyzed regarding large-scale flow features, kinetic energy, washout, and pressure gradients.ResultsSSMs of aneurysmatic and non-aneurysmatic LVs were generated. Differences in shapes and contractility were found in the first three shape modes. Ninety percent of the cumulative shape variance is described with approximately 30 modes. A comparison of hemodynamics between all groups found shape-, contractility- and MR-dependent differences. Disturbed blood washout in the apex region was found in the aneurysmatic cases. With increasing MR, the diastolic jet becomes less coherent, whereas energy dissipation increases by decreasing kinetic energy. The poorest blood washout was found for the globally hypokinetic group, whereas the weakest blood washout in the apex region was found for the true aneurysm group.ConclusionThe proposed CCT-based analysis of hemodynamics combining CFD with SSM seems promising to facilitate the analysis of intracardiac flow, thus increasing the value of CCT for diagnostic and treatment decisions. With further enhancement of the computational approach, the methodology has the potential to be embedded in clinical routine workflows and support clinicians.

The development of robust chronologies of Neoglaciation from individual glaciers throughout the high-altitude Andes can provide fundamental knowledge of influences such as regional temperature and precipitation variability, and aid in predicting future changes in the Andean climate system. However, records of Late Holocene glaciation from the Central Chilean Andes are sparse, and often poorly constrained. Here, we present 36Cl surface exposure ages, dendrochronologic constraints, and glacial mass balance modeling simulations of Late Holocene glacier fluctuations in the Central-South Chilean Andes. A series of concentric moraine ridges were identified on Monte Sierra Nevada (38°S), where exposure dating of basaltic boulders was used to establish a chronology of ice recession. We infer that moraine abandonment of the most distal ridge in the valley commenced by ∼4.2 ka, and was followed by glacier margin retreat to an up-valley position. Exposure ages of the oldest Late Holocene boulders (∼2.5–0.8 ka) along the marginal extents of the moraine complex indicate fluctuations of the glacier terminus prior to ∼0.65 ka. A final expansion of the ice margin reoccupied the position of the 4.2 ka moraine, with abatement from the outermost composite moraine occurring by ∼0.70 ka, as constrained by tree-ring data from live Araucaria araucana trees. Finally, a series of nested moraines dating to ∼0.45–0.30 ka, formed from a pulsed ice recession during the latest Holocene when the lower reaches of the glacial snout was most likely debris mantled. A distributed temperature index model combined with a glacier flow model was used to quantify an envelope of possible climatic conditions of Late Holocene glaciation. The glacial modeling results suggest conditions were ∼1.5°C colder and 20% wetter during peak Neoglaciation relative to modern conditions. These records also suggest a near-coeval record of Late Holocene climate variability between the middle and high southern latitudes. Furthermore, this study presents some of the youngest 36Cl exposure ages reported for moraines in the Andes, further supporting this method as a valuable geochronologic tool for assessing Late Holocene landscape development.
