Application of cenosphere obtained from flying ashes as effective abrasive for cleansing milks was analyzed in the paper. Preparations and production technology of ten milks with various contents of cenosphere (from 2% to 20%) were designed. The products were tested to determine their most important usable properties. The efficiency of application and dispersion, cleansing ability, ability to emulsify fatty soils and destructing activity, measured as polish of surfaces, were analyzed. Selected trade products were tested analogously. The results obtained show that cenosphere can be a good replacement of abrasives that are widely used. The cenosphere-based products revealed comparable usable properties to the trade products (or even better). It is probable that producers of cleansers will pay their attention to this waste, which will bring profits to the natural environment.

Physical Activity Education (PAE) has always been playing an important role in the history of Early Childhood Education (ECE) in Germany and its institutionalized form called “Kindergarten”. As a key feature of Kindergarten quality Physical Activity (PA) was originally considered to be either a compensation for children’s health dangers along with the neglect by their hard working mothers or a mere medium for other developmental fields such as cognition or social behavior. The subjectively observed outcome for the pedagogues was far from empirically objective evidence. Till the 1970s neither the technical term “quality” nor any empirical quality standards existed in German ECE to assess the effect of PA in Kindergarten. This fairly hasn’t changed yet although some general findings of high quality effects can be reported as well as PA specific results from a recent review on systematic PAE programmes. Despite this fact, Germany’s organized sports associations (OSA) installed 1759 Physical Activity Kindergarten (PAK) with great expectations in their overall positive developmental effect. For quality assurance some criteria were developed to achieve a minimum standard level. Subsequently a very popular license originated without having evidence for its positive outcome. A randomized, controlled longitudinal study is still to come.

INTRODUCTION: The effectiveness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation depends primarily on the actions taken at the scene. Firefighters are often the first ones to help the injured. The quality of their rescue efforts in such case determines the subsequent prognosis for the patient. Nevertheless, the tasks of firefighters also involve activities associated with a lot of physical activity, which can cause them to lose strength faster during CPR. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of fatigue on the quality of CPR performed by firefighters. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 100 firefighters of volunteer firefighting units in the Siedlce poviat in Poland. The study was divided into three stages: I - performing chest compressions in a timed regime, II - subjecting the study group to uniform physical activity, III - reassessing the quality of chest compressions. The effectiveness of CPR was analyzed using a computer system and a professional training model. To analyze the variables, the normality of the distribution was determined using the Shapiro-Wilk test, and then the non-parametric test for uncorrelated variables Mann-Whitney U was used. Correlations were tested using the r-Pearson test at p<0.05 significance. RESULTS: The study group consisted of 93 men and 7 women, with a mean age of M=30.84 (SD ± 10.95). The respondents mostly had secondary education (42%) and vocational education (24%), with the majority (54%) declaring their marital status as single. Firefighters with varying ranks, including commanders, chiefs and presidents, participated in the study. The overall quality of chest compressions was lower each time after physical activity, at each analyzed minute of stage I and stage III (minute 1: 84.56% vs. 81.68%, p=0.281; minute 2: 81.13% vs. 80,25%, p=0,558; minute 3: 81.91% vs. 77.78%; p=0.243). A significantly higher quality of chest compressions was observed among men compared to women, both before fatigue (p=0.019) and after physical activity (p=0.053). Participants in the >53 age group had the best resuscitation scores in both during fatigue (90.78%) and before physical activity (90.83%). There was no significant correlation with rank or function of firefighters. Among the parameters of chest compressions evaluated in the third minute, the greatest effect of fatigue was shown in the aspect of the compression rate (59.42% vs. 49.20%) and depth (71.61% vs. 67.86%). CONCLUSIONS: Physical fatigue of firefighters results in moderate decrease in the effectiveness of chest compressions, especially in terms of the rate and depth of compressions. The overall quality of chest compressions is significantly higher in men than in women both before and after physical activity. The experience of firefighters can translate into the quality of resuscitation, regardless of their age.

WSTĘP: Skuteczność resuscytacji krążeniowo-oddechowej zależy przede wszystkim od działań podjętych na miejscu zdarzenia. Strażacy często jako pierwsi udzielają pomocy rannym. Jakość podjętej wówczas akcji ratunkowej determinuje późniejsze rokowanie dla pacjenta. Jednak do zadań strażaków zaliczają się także czynności związane z dużą aktywnością fizyczną, która może powodować szybszą utratę sił podczas resuscytacji krążeniowo-oddechowej. Celem pracy była ocena wpływu zmęczenia na jakość wykonywanej przez strażaków resuscytacji krążeniowo-oddechowej. MATERIAŁY I METODY: Grupę badawczą stanowiło 100 strażaków jednostek ochotniczych straży pożarnych z powiatu siedleckiego. Badanie podzielono na trzy etapy: I – wykonywanie uciśnięć klatki piersiowej w reżimie czasowym, II – poddanie grupy badanej jednolitej aktywności fizycznej, III – ponowna ocena jakości uciśnięć klatki piersiowej. Skuteczność resuscytacji krążeniowo-oddechowej analizowano za pomocą systemu komputerowego i profesjonalnego modelu szkolenia. Do analizy zmiennych wyznaczono normalność rozkładu za pomocą testu Shapiro-Wilka, a następnie zastosowano test nieparametryczny dla zmiennych nieskorelowanych U Manna-Whitneya. Korelacje sprawdzono za pomocą testu r-Pearsona przy poziomie istotności p<0,05. WYNIKI: Grupę badaną stanowiło 93 mężczyzn i 7 kobiet, średnia wieku M=30,84 (SD ± 10,95). Respondenci w większości posiadali wykształcenie średnie (42%) i zawodowe (24%), przy czym większość (54%) deklarowała stan cywilny jako wolny. W badaniu uczestniczyli strażacy różnych stopni, w tym dowódcy, szefowie i prezesi. Ogólna jakość uciśnięć klatki piersiowej była niższa każdorazowo po wysiłku fizycznym, w każdej analizowanej minucie etapu I i III (minuta 1: 84,56% vs. 81,68%, p=0,281; minuta 2: 81,13% vs. 80,25% , p=0,558, minuta 3: 81,91% vs. 77,78%, p=0,243). Stwierdzono istotnie wyższą jakość uciśnięć klatki piersiowej u mężczyzn w porównaniu z kobietami, zarówno przed zmęczeniem (p=0,019), jak i po wysiłku fizycznym (p=0,053). Uczestnicy w grupie wiekowej > 53 lata uzyskali najlepsze wyniki w zakresie resuscytacji zarówno podczas zmęczenia (90,78%), jak i przed aktywnością fizyczną (90,83%). Nie stwierdzono istotnej korelacji ze stopniem lub funkcją strażaków. Wśród parametrów uciśnięć klatki piersiowej ocenianych w trzeciej minucie największy wpływ zmęczenia wykazano w aspekcie częstości uciśnięć (59,42% vs. 49,20%) i głębokości (71,61% vs. 67,86%). WNIOSKI: Zmęczenie fizyczne strażaków powoduje umiarkowane zmniejszenie skuteczności uciśnięć klatki piersiowej, szczególnie w zakresie częstotliwości i głębokości uciśnięć. Ogólna jakość uciśnięć klatki piersiowej jest istotnie wyższa u mężczyzn niż u kobiet zarówno przed, jak i po wysiłku fizycznym. Doświadczenie strażaków może przełożyć się na jakość prowadzonej resuscytacji, niezależnie od ich wieku.

The quality of health care in Poland has become an important issue after the changes in the health care system in 1999. This is a relatively new area of research and invaluable help in the management of healthcare facilities. To talk about the quality of medical services, we need to know which elements build quality, and which of them should be given particular attention. Certainly, improving the quality of services is not an easy task, given their complexity and specifi city. It should be remembered that this specifi city is mainly composed of the large disparity in knowledge between the customer (patient) and provider (doctor or medical staff ), as well as the high diversity or problem of standardizing the service process. Assessment of the quality of medical service may be made by the payers as well as managers of a health care facility, but the most important role is played here by the patient. Although the diffi culties in unifying the concept for quality medical services, there are several methods of measuring quality based on the observation of patients.

Jakość w opiece zdrowotnej stała się w Polsce ważnym zagadnieniem po zmianach systemu zdrowia w 1999 r. To stosunkowo nowy obszar badań i nieoceniona pomoc w procesie zarządzania placówkami opieki zdrowotnej. Aby mówić o dobrej jakości usługi medycznej, należy wiedzieć, jakie elementy budują jakość oraz na które z nich należy zwrócić szczególną uwagę. Z pewnością poprawa jakości usług nie należy do zadań łatwych, zważywszy na ich złożoność oraz specyfikę. Należy pamiętać, iż na ową specyfikę składa się przede wszystkim duża dysproporcja wiedzy między usługobiorcą (pacjentem) oraz usługodawcą (lekarzem lub personelem), a także wysokie zróżnicowanie czy problem standaryzacji procesu świadczenia usługi. Oceny jakości usługi medycznej może dokonywać płatnik oraz osoby zarządzające placówką opieki zdrowotnej, jednak najważniejszą rolę pełni tu pacjent. Pomimo trudności w ujednoliceniu pojęcia jakości usług medycznych, istnieje kilka metod pomiaru jakości bazujących właśnie na spostrzeżeniach pacjentów.

INTRODUCTION: Colonoscopy is considered to be a gold standard for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Endoscopy training is an essential component of general surgery training program. Patients should receive care at the highest level possible, nevertheless residents need to gain experience. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of colonoscopy performed by general surgery residents by comparing quality indicators between surgical trainees and consultants. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The analysis included 6384 patients aged 40–65 who underwent screening colonoscopy between October 2014 and February 2018. The patients were divided into two groups: group I – patients examined by residents, group II - patients examined by board-certified general surgeons. Quality indicators such as cecal intubation rate, adenoma detection rate and patient tolerance scale were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Group I comprised 2268 (35.53%) and group II 4116 (64.47%) patients. The overall cecal intubation rate (CIR) was 95.99%, equal for both groups (p = 0.994). There was no statistically significant difference in adenoma detection rate: 29.30% among residents and 27.66% among consultants (p = 0.203). Patient tolerance of the examination was very good (4-point scale) in consultants group in 78.98% of cases and in 75.18% cases among residents (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: In a proper learning environment general surgery residents are able to perform high-quality and effective screening colonoscopy. However, residents need to continue the progress in their technique to improve patient tolerance in order to reach the proficiency of a consultant.

Introduction. A full-term newborn, after birth and during a short stay in hospital in the neonatology ward must undergo many medical procedures. These procedures are justified in many legal acts. Individual procedures are specified by the recommendations of various scientific societies. Medical staff who perform them must provide the highest quality service. The hospital environment for mother and newborn baby will always be alien and not entirely acceptable. Medical staff, due to their high quality of care, should make the mother and her child feel safe and have confidence in the safe application of all procedures in the newborn. For each of the medical procedures, the mother/legal guardian must give informed oral or written consent. The education of mother/legal guardian by nurses/midwives as well as all medical staff is essential for proper knowledge and acceptance of all medical procedures that are performed on their children. Reliable and substantive and up-to-date knowledge that medical staff must have after passing on to mothers / legal guardians in a coherent and accessible manner, will allow them to make informed consent for new-born’s medical procedures. Aim. The aim of the study is to analyse the implementation of medical procedures within the organizational standard of perinatal care for a full-term newborn. Materials and methods. The research material includes 102 people-women who are mothers of full-term newborn born at WSS in Włocławek, in the Obstetrics and Neonatology Department. The study uses the original questionnaire necessary to conduct the research, the Apgar scale and the newborn data sheet. Results. Most of the procedures, such as: debuffing, Apgar score, labelling, hearing tests, dry tissue paper tests, pulse oximetry test, kangaroo testing, evaluation of transients, and anthropometric measurements were performed in all children. The lowest tests were performed: degumming - 29 people (28.4%), reflexes - 4 people (3.9%) and HBS - 1 person (1.0%). The age of the respondents did not correlate statistically with the results of the procedures performed (p> 0.05). Due to the level of significance (p> 0.05), there were no statistically significant differences between the groups of place of residence regarding the performance of the procedures. Conclusions. The vast majority of medical procedures based on the organizational standard of perinatal care were performed in all children, providing the highest quality service by medical personnel. Most mothers do not know about the perinatal procedures performed in their babies. The greatest demand for education on medical procedures in the newborn is seen in women with lower education and elements.

Wstęp. Noworodek donoszony zarówno zaraz po urodzeniu, jak i również podczas swojego krótkiego pobytu w szpitalu na oddziale Neonatologii musi mieć wykonanych wiele procedur medycznych. Procedury te znajdują uzasadnienie w wielu aktach prawnych. Poszczególne procedury są doprecyzowywane przez rekomendacje różnych towarzystw naukowych. Personel medyczny, który je wykonuje musi świadczyć usługę najwyższej jakości. Środowisko szpitalne dla matki i noworodka zawsze będzie obcym i nie do końca akceptowalnym. Personel medyczny przez wysoką jakość opieki powinien sprawić, żeby matka ze swoim dzieckiem czuła się tam bezpiecznie i miała zaufanie do bezpiecznego stosowania wszystkich procedur u noworodka. Cel. Celem pracy jest analiza realizacji procedur medycznych w ramach standardu organizacyjnego opieki okołoporodowej wobec noworodka donoszonego. Materiały i metody. Materiał badawczy obejmuje 102 osoby-kobiety, które są matkami noworodków donoszonych urodzonych w WSS we Włocławku, w oddziale Położniczo Neonatologicznym. W pracy wykorzystano autorski kwestionariusz ankiety niezbędny do przeprowadzenia badań, skalę Apgar oraz arkusz danych o noworodku. Wyniki. Większość procedur takich, jak: odpępnienie, ocena w skali Apgar, oznakowanie, testy słuchu, testy suchej bibuły, test pulsoksymetryczny, kangurowanie, ocena stanów przejściowych, pomiary antropometryczne wykonana został u wszystkich dzieci. W najmniejszym stopniu wykonano testy: odśluzowanie – 29 osób (28,4%), odruchy – 4 osoby (3,9%) oraz HBS – 1 osoba (1,0%). Wiek badanych, nie pozostawał w istotnej statystycznie korelacji z wynikami wykonywanych procedur (p>0,05). Ze względu na poziom istotności (p>0,05), nie odnotowano istotnych statystycznie różnic pomiędzy grupami miejsca zamieszkania dotyczących wykonania procedur. Wnioski. Zdecydowana większość procedur medycznych w oparciu o standard organizacyjny opieki okołoporodowej wykonano u wszystkich dzieci, świadcząc przez personel medyczny usługę o najwyższej jakości. Matki w większości nie posiadają wiedzy na temat procedur okołoporodowych stosowanych u ich dzieci. Największe zapotrzebowanie na edukację dotyczących procedur medycznych u noworodka mają kobiety z niższym wykształceniem i pierwiastki.
