“…These symptoms are headache (45.1%), cough (11%), burning in the throat (31.7%), eye irritation (56.1%), tearing (34.1%), and respiratory problems (20.7%). Our research results are meaningful and consistent with the studies in the literature [14,15,24,26,27]. Based on these results, it can be said that health workers experience at least one symptom.…”

“…The pandemic of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is affecting our global healthcare system. SAR-CoV-2 is mainly spread through respiratory droplets (particles larger than 5 μm) produced by coughing and sneezing [12][13][14][15][16]. Still, another potential mode of transmission as aerosols (those smaller than 5 μm) cannot be ruled out [17].…”

This study was conducted to determine operating room workers' thoughts and personal well-being levels about surgical smoke exposure during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This descriptive study was conducted between May-June 2022. The research was completed with 82 operating room employees in a public hospital in Istanbul. Research data were collected using a questionnaire about sociodemographic characteristics, surgical smoke, and the Personal Well-Being Scale. Descriptive statistics were used in the analysis of the data. 89% of the individuals included in the study thought they were exposed to surgical smoke. Individuals exposed to surgical smoke; had a headache (45.1), cough (11%), burning in the throat (31.7%), eye irritation (56.1%), tearing (34.1) and respiratory problems (20.7%). Employees use surgical masks (74.4%), aspiration catheters (59.8%), gowns (74.4%), goggles (74.4%), filters (35.4), and filtration masks (6.1) to protect themselves from surgical smoke. In addition, it was determined that they wanted to receive education about surgical smoke (93.9%). It was determined that the mean score of the Personal Well-Being Scale was X ̄ =41.76. In the pandemic process, it has been determined that the measures taken to prevent surgical smoke in operating rooms are insufficient, the employees experience many symptoms, and their well-being is low. Efforts should be made to reduce and possibly eliminate fumes from the operating room. Cost-effective forms of smoke extraction need to be investigated. There is also a need for studies on the sequelae of exposure to operating room smoke in personnel who have been exposed to operating room smoke for a long time.

There is a lack of subcutaneous anticoagulant counseling tools for COVID-19 patients. This study aims to develop and validate a written counseling tool for subcutaneous anticoagulant use in COVID-19 patients. A prospective cohort study was performed with expert panels and patients. The tool was validated by hospital pharmacists using Content Validity Index (I-CVI), Scale-level-CVI (S-CVI), and Universal Acceptance (UA). Face validation by patients was determined using Item Acceptance Index (IAI), and Universal Acceptance (UA). Hospital pharmacists (n=26) were mostly female (n=18, 69.2%) and Chinese (n=20, 76.9%), with a mean age of 35.8±2.9 years. All items were assessed relevantly (n=18, 100%), I-CVIs ranging from 0.96-1.00 by hospital pharmacists. The average proportion of items, I-CVI average, (Sum of I-CVI/no. of items: 17.88/18) was reported as 0.99. S-CVI/UA (Sum of UA/no. of items: 15/18) was reported as 0.83, and S-CVI/Average (Sum of I-CVI/no. of items: 17.88/18) was reported as 0.99 indicating high content validity. Patients (n=28) involved in face validation of the construct were mostly female (n=19, 67.9%), Malay (n=46.4%), and tertiary educated (n=20, 71.4%) with a mean age of 38.0±9.8 years. All items were marked as relevant (n=18, 100%), with IAI ranging from 0.93-1.00, suggesting patients accepted each item of the construct. The average proportion of items was reported as 0.99 (Sum of IAI/no. of items: 17.82/18), indicating excellent acceptance and content comprehension among patients. The developed counseling tool is acceptable for anticoagulant education among COVID-19 patients.
