Abstract: 

Crisis is a socio-psychological stress which breaks through the conventional notions of life and social reactions resulting in death, financial harms, threats, dangers and new needs. It can be managed based on careful observation and analysis of previous crises to reduce the negative consequences of the situation. The emergency management system includes three stages of: 1-pre-occurrence measures as a prevention plan; 2-measures during occurrence as a countermeasure plan; and 3-post-occurrence measures as a recovery plan. Proper implementation of this system reduces deaths and financial/biological consequences while evolving a quick recovery of emergencies. . . .

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Evidence from past wars of human history and the present century presents undeniable examples revealing the importance of civil defense. In Iran, there have been numerous attacks with a variety of chemical gases during the eight years of the battle with Iraq. In addition, unintended accidents during earthquakes, hurricanes, and car accidents while transporting chemicals and chemical gases, although rare, are inevitable. For example, large-scale chlorine gas emissions have occurred. Because these events are rare, ED personnel are often not prepared enough to play an effective role in such situation, especially in the early golden hours after their happening. Due to lack of observation and repetition, preparedness of medical centers in terms of equipment and trained staff after the occurrence of attacks and accidents is a basic necessity. According to its inherent duties, Iranian civil defense organization is responsible for training and taking action to prepare hospital staff. This project, supported by this organization, aims to report how to confront with an accident or chemical attack in Loghman Hakim Hospital, a tertiary referral center for poisonings in Tehran, Iran, in 2019. Materials and Methods: This project was performed as a maneuver with participation of 65 physicians, hospital personnel, and students at Loghman Hakim Hospital affiliated to Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences. Initially, training workshops were held to raise the awareness and preparedness of the members of the crisis team and all active staff using existing texts and instructions. Then, a designed imaginary scenario was presented and acted as a maneuver on a non-holiday day between 9. 30 AM and 4 PM. Results: Sixty-five physicians, hospital staff, and students attended the maneuver. The findings are reported in three levels of A: directorship and management level reaching almost 70% of its goals; B: operational level reaching about 70% of its goals, and C: termination of the maneuver and initiation of rehabilitation reaching almost 40% of its goals. Conclusion: The maneuver was performed with almost 65% of the aims reached. Physicians and staff readiness was assessed to be moderate. Lack of equipment was undeniably obvious, especially in decontamination tools and protective clothing for employees. In general, our referral center of poisoning is not prepared enough to deal with any chemical accident or attack if it happens. More attention is needed to chemical accident/attack preparedness at least in all referral centers for clinical poisoning throughout the country.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: Drug addiction is a chronic illness that can often be associated with another psychiatric illness, such as depression. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of existential group therapy and cognitive behavioral group therapy on depression among patients on Methadone Maintainance Therapy (MMT) in Qazvin Province. Materials and Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test, post-test, and control group. Participants included 90 male patients on MMT rehabilitation facilities of Qazvin in 2019, who were purposefully selected and randomly divided into three groups: an experimental group under 10 weekly 120-minute existential group therapy, an experimental group under 10 weekly 120-minute cognitive-behavioral therapy, and a control group. All three groups completed Beck's Depression Questionnaire before the intervention, after the intervention and after 3 months. Data were analyzed using repeated measure test in SPSS software version 22. Results: In the group receiving cognitive-behavioral intervention, the mean (SD) score of depression varied from 44. 5 (3. 3) in the pre-test to 34. 9 (3. 1) in the post-test and 34. 1 (3. 5) in the follow-up, p<0. 001. In the group receiving existential therapy intervention, the mean (SD) score of depression varied from 47. 7 (3. 2) in the pre-test, to 37. 1 (5. 5) in the post-test, and 35. 9 (5. 4) in the follow-up phase, p<0. 001. In the control group, the mean (SD) score of depression did not vary significantly in pre-test, post-test and follow-up. The effect size of cognitive-behavioral therapy (Eta=0. 53) was greater than the effect size of existential therapy (Eta=0. 24) in reducing depression, which indicates a greater effictivenesss of cognitive-behavioral therapy compared to existential therapy in depression reduction. Conclusion: It can be concluded that both cognitive-behavioral therapy and existential therapy are effective in reducing depression among patients under MMT, with cognitive-behavioral therapy being more effective in reducing depression than existential therapy.

Abstract: 

Background and Objective: A healthy lifestyle consisting of physical activity, stress management, healthy diet, and avoiding smoking and alcohol, has a significant impact on mental health. However, these components and their impact may vary among men and women. The aim of this study was to determine the ability of healthy lifestyle components in predicting women’ s and men’ s mental health. Materials and Methods: The present study is descriptive-analytical. The statistical population included all 20 to 60-year-olds living in Kerman in 1398, 600 of whom, including 300 women and 300 men, were selected based on the sampling method of quotas from four regions of Kerman. The research data were collected through a global health scale of 12 questions and a healthy lifestyle questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS-23 statistical software and t-test and linear and multiple regression. Results: The mean (SD) age was 39 (9. 6) among women and 40. 5 (10. 1) among men. The mean (SD) of women’ s healthy lifestyle score was significantly higher than men: 55. 7 (6. 6) vs. 17. 6 (7. 9), P<0. 001. The mean (SD) score of women’ s stress management was 12. 6 (3. 7) significantly higher than men’ s 11. 7 (4. 2), P<0. 001. The rate of avoidance of tobacco and alcohol consumption among women was significantly higher than men: 19. 4 (1. 3) vs. 11. 11 (4. 2), P<0. 001. The mean (SD) score of physical activity among women was significantly lower than men: 7. 6 (3. 0) vs. 8. 2 (2. 7), P<0. 001. The mean (SD) score of healthy diet among women was significantly higher than men: 16. 1 (2. 8) vs. 15. 3 (2. 2), P<0. 001. Predictive components for health Women’ s Psychiatry Stress Management was 0. 42 units, exercise and physical activity were 0. 18 units, smoking cessation and alcohol consumption were 0. 12 units, and the predictive components for men’ s mental health were stress management 0. 30 units and a healthy diet 0. 16 were units. Conclusion: The study found that stress management, smoking cessation, and a healthy diet were better among women. However, they had lower physical activity than men. Women’ s mental health was positively associated with increased stress management, more exercise, less smoking, alcohol, and employment. Men’ s mental health positively associated with increasing stress management and diet improvement. Among the components of a healthy lifestyle, stress management was the most effective predictor of mental health in both sexes.
