Article Abstract
Introduction: Earthquakes are recognized as one of the most dangerous and destructive types of natural disasters. Therefore, decision-making and crisis management are of great importance in these circumstances. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of the crisis management training intervention in earthquake simulation conditions in prehospital emergency and incident management center personnel in Chaharmahal Bakhtiari, Iran in 2024.
Methodology: The present study was a semi-experimental pre-test-post-test type. The statistical population was 64 emergency medical personnel at emergency bases in Iran, who were selected from the study population by simple random method and according to the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to two intervention and control groups based on a lottery. The educational-operational intervention program was presented to the intervention group in four two-hour sessions. A crisis management questionnaire was used to collect data. Data were analyzed using SPSS26 software, t-test, and structural equation modeling.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 38.6±1.33. The crisis management score before training the crisis management model in the intervention group was 37.03±3.63 and in the control group was 37.34±4.22; there was no statistically significant difference (p=0.761). The crisis management score after training the crisis management model in the intervention group was 43.45±6.00 and in the control group was 37.91±4.31, which was statistically significant (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Considering the positive effect of crisis management training in earthquake simulation conditions on emergency medical personnel at emergency bases, it seems that this method can improve the performance of emergency medical personnel. Therefore, it can be suggested that crisis management training intervention in earthquake incidents with simulated training (maneuver) be used to increase the performance of emergency medical personnel.

Sickle cell disease is the most common serious genetic disease in the world. It is a systemic disease, characterized by vaso-occlusive phenomena, especially in the bone capillary network. Orthopedic complications are thus the most common, with a strong impact on quality of life.

Introduction: This study aims to develop and validate a job crafting scale designed specifically for occupational health and safety (OHS) professionals working in a crisis environment. Job crafting, defined as the proactive adjustment of job roles to better align with individual preferences and strengths, is recognized as a valuable strategy for enhancing job satisfaction, engagement, and performance in various occupational settings. However, existing job crafting scales primarily focus on general work contexts and cannot fully capture the unique dimensions of job crafting relevant to OHS professionals in a crisis response context.

Deinstitutionalization enables the removal of users from asylums with the support of the Psychosocial Care Network (PCN), which is based on the Psychosocial Care Centers (PCCs). One of the current impasses is the emergence of private/religious institutions that are updating the asylum model. In order to analyze what leads to neo-institutionalization in these locations, an ethnographical study was carried out on nine cases in four PCCs of the three PCNs in the city of Rio de Janeiro, through scrutiny of medical records, interviews with the patient, family members, PCC technicians and managers of the asylums per se.

The reduction in clinical rotation hours, particularly in high-demand pediatric subspecialties such as Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) and Pediatric Emergency Rooms (ER), has highlighted the need for innovative approaches to enhance pediatric residency education. A 2019 survey of Italian pediatric residency programs revealed that most residents receive fewer than five hours of simulation-based training annually, with 66% participating in no simulation activities. Additionally, pediatric ER rotation hours have seen significant reductions-daytime rotations decreased by 29%, while nighttime rotations were reduced by 60% over the past four years at the University of Genoa.
