Prevalence and factors associated with COVID-19 among healthcare workers at a university hospital in Thailand (2022)
Title : Prevalence and factors associated with COVID-19 among healthcare workers at a university hospital in Thailand
Researcher : Sirijatuphat, R., Leelarasamee, A., Horthongkham, N.
Abstract : Globally, healthcare workers (HCWs) have a high risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, but less is known about healthcare workers in Thailand. We estimated the prevalence and risk factors for COVID-19 among HCWs in Bangkok, Thailand. A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a large tertiary care academic hospital in Thailand from May 2020 to May 2021. HCWs that presented with fever and/or acute respiratory tract symptoms who tested with RT-PCR were identified, and their clinical data were collected. There were 1432 HCWs with fever and/or acute respiratory tract symptoms during May 2020 and May 2021. A total of 167 patients were front-line HCWs and 1265 were non-front-line HCWs. Sixty HCWs (4.2%) developed COVID-19; 2 were front-line and 58 were non-front-line HCWs. The prevalence of COVID-19 in front-line HCWs was 1.7% (2/167), and 4.6% (58/1265) in non-front-line HCWs (P = .04). In addition, non-front-line HCWs, non-medical staffs, history of contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case at home/family, unvaccinated status, fair compliance to personal protective equipment (PPE) standard, and initial presentation with pneumonia were significantly more common in HCWs with COVID-19 than those without COVID-19 (P < .05). Front-line HCWs, history of contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case at the clinical care areas in the hospital, vaccinated status, good compliance to PPE standards, and initial presentation with upper respiratory infection were significantly more common in HCWs without COVID-19 than those with COVID-19 (P < .05). Multivariate analysis revealed history of exposure with confirmed COVID-19 case at home or in family, unvaccinated status, non-frontline-HCWs, non-medical staffs, and fair compliance to PPE standard to be independent factors associated with COVID-19 in HCWs. COVID-19 was more common in non-front-line HCWs at this tertiary hospital. Thai guidelines on infection prevention and control for COVID-19 seem to be effective in preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Therefore, the adherence to these recommendations should be encouraged.

Prevalence of amniotic fluid sludge in low-risk pregnant women of preterm delivery (2019)
Title : Prevalence of amniotic fluid sludge in low-risk pregnant women of preterm delivery
Researcher : Kovavisarach, E., Jongfuangprinya, K.
Abstract : Background: Amniotic fluid sludge (AFS) has been demonstrated in cases of intrauterine infection, one of the causes of preterm labor. Therefore, AFS is used as a predictor of preterm labor.
Objective: To determine prevalence of AFS in low-risk pregnant women and diagnostic performance of AFS for screening of preterm delivery in low-risk cases of preterm delivery.
Materials and Methods: Prospective descriptive study was conducted in low-risk pregnant women of preterm delivery who attended the antenatal care clinic in Rajavithi Hospital at gestational age (GA) 16 to 24 weeks between May 1, 2016 and October 31, 2017. All subjects were examined by transvaginal ultrasound to demonstrate AFS and then followed until delivery.
Results: Prevalence of AFS in all cases was 72/330 cases (21.8%). Premature delivery occurred in AFS positive and AFS negative were 3/72 (4.2%) and 22/258 (8.5%), respectively. Baseline characteristics were similar except mean BMI, and type of contraception. Mean GA at delivery was the only significant different obstetrical outcome. Diagnostic performances of AFS for screening low risk pregnant women for spontaneous preterm delivery less than 37 weeks of gestation had sensitivity of 12.0%, specificity of 77.4%, accuracy of 77.4%, positive predictive value of 4.2% and negative predictive value of 91.5%.
Conclusion: Prevalence of AFS in low-risk pregnant women of preterm delivery was 21.8%. AFS is not sensitive for screening of preterm delivery in low-risk cases.

E-mail : med@siam.edu
Abstract : Background: The reference values of Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) parameters of the inspiratory and expiratory phase for preschool children have not yet been established.
Objective: To evaluate FOT measures in Thai healthy preschool children.
Methods: Preschool children, aged 3-6 years, were screened. Children who were positive for the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) questionnaire for asthma, positive family history of allergic diseases, recent lower respiratory tract infections, and environmental tobacco smoke were excluded. FOT parameters, including resistance (Rrs), reactance (Xrs), frequency of resonance (Fres) and area of reactance (ALX), were measured.
Results: A total of 390 healthy children with the mean age of 5.1 ± 0.9 years were enrolled. FOT was successfully performed in 378 children (96.9%). The mean (SD) for the whole breath (WB) resistance at 5Hz (R5), 20 Hz (R20) and R5-20 were 11.49 (2.69) cmH2O/L/s, 9.46 (2.19) cmH2O/L/s and 2.02 (0.82) cmH2O/L/s, respectively. The median (IQR) for WB reactance at 5Hx (X5), Fres and ALX were -1.51 (-2.37 to -0.96) cmH2O/L/s, 11.17 (8.50-15.65) Hz, and 7.53 (3.72-14.32) cmH2O/L/s, respectively. Significantly difference in WB R5, R20, X5, Fres and ALX between male and female children were demonstrated. The expiratory phase R5, R20, R5-20 were significantly higher than those of the inspiratory phase (p < 0.001). There are significant correlations between the height and FOT parameters. Reference curve for the FOT parameters was generated based on height using the lambda-mu-sigma (LMS) method.
Conclusion: Reference curve of FOT parameters measured in healthy preschool children were demonstrated. Majority of preschool children could perform FOT method.
