PROFESSIONAL ORIENTATION OF STUDENTS

One of the most important parts of the preliminary sanitary inspection is the examination of the projects. Especially great significance has sanitary examination of hospital projects the aim of which is achieving of further improving of public medical service, ensuring of medical protection regimen, infection warning in hospitals.

Hygienic standards concerning planning creation and organization the work of medical-prophylactic establishments. The process of creation optimal hygienic conditions in medical-prophylactic establishments are defined by the peculiarities of planning and building on the plot regulation and inside planning of the buildings, their sanitary-technical improvements, and also sanitary condition during maintenance.

Improving the conditions for the patients in hospital, medical service for the population; providing treatment-security regimen, preventing nosocomial (hospital) infections – depend upon the conformity of the hospital design with the hygienic requirements. Work of medical workes and doctors as particular is characterized of big intellectual loading, demand a lot volume of operative and lasting memory and demands a lot of responsibility for the life and health of patients. The occupational exercise load and hazards of the surgical specialties doctors include: - the number of surgical interventions – up to 150 per year in general surgery, 170 – in otorhinolaryngology, 370 – in obstetrics and gynecology. The number and complexity of the operations increase with the raising the level of the surgeon’s skill; - the forced body position with the trunk frontal bending and the prolonged static tension of muscles of the shoulder girdle, back and stretched forward arms; - the hot microclimate of the operating room with high streams of the radioactive heat from the artificial lighting sources (shadowless lamp); - the ionizing radiation during the X-ray examinations, especially in traumatology, vascular surgery, neurosurgery; - the toxic effect of the narcosis agents (nitrous oxide, halothane, chloroform, diethyl ether) and anesthetics; - high mental and nervous-emotional exertion, connected with the complexity and duration of the surgical intervention, possible post-operative complications and responsibility for patient’s life.

Among the diseases afflicting the surgical specialties doctors with temporary disability the most widespread are the diseases of nervous system, cardio-vascular system, digestive system and acute respiratory diseases.    A considerable amount of peoples uses food in establishments of catering, to which also hospitals nutritional sections, schools, child gardens and other founding. That's why to doctors of very different professions must to know organization principles of catering and to have by practical acquired habits from control for observance hygienic of demands to their work.

It is known, that more than a half of professional diseases of the doctors - (59,8 % and more) is caused by physical and mental overstrain, and also the influence of the chemical factors.

SITUATION TASKS

 City hospital consists of main corps (surgical and therapeutic separations) and a few corps for the infectious, maternity, child's separations. The therapeutic and surgical separation is had on two ward sections, in each are 40 beds In every section are 10 wards for 4 beds. An area on one bed is 5,9 m2. Other separations are had on one ward section on 36 beds.

To define the type of building of hospital, to give hygienical estimation to planning. To indicate, which still indexes are needed for estimation of work conditions of medical personnel.

CORRECT ANSWERS OF TEST EVALUATIONS AND SITUATIONAL TASKS:

 

1  -  A,      2-B,        4 -  A ,   4 -D,  .  5 – B

 

Answer on situation task:   

 Type of building of hospital is mixed. Ward sections have more of beds (it is recommended to 30), absent to flame for seriously sicking on 1-2 beds, area for 1 bed insufficient (it is to be not less than 7 m2). For estimation of work conditions of medical personnel we need use the indexes of microclimate, chemical composition of air (possible maintenance of medical preparations in air), indexes of bacterial cleanness of air, coefficients of dayly and artificial illumination, level of noise and others like that.

 

 Individual student work (1415-1500 hour)  are checked by solving situational tasks for each topic, answers in test evaluations and constructive questions (the instructor has tests & situational tasks).
