WHO Surgical Safety Checklist and Anesthesia Equipment Checklist efficacy in war-affected low-resource settings: a prospective two-arm multicenter study.

Introduction: The Russian invasion of Ukraine has caused huge damage to all medical infrastructure and impairs patient safety. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of implementation of the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist and Anesthesia Equipment Checklist on patient outcomes and adherence to safety standards in low-resource settings, affected by an ongoing war.

Material And Methods: A prospective multicenter study was conducted in 6 large Ukrainian hospitals.

Critical incidents during anesthesia: prospective audit.

[Significance of risk groups in pediatric phthisiology].

Detailed analysis of risk factors in 161 children with pulmonary tuberculosis has established that tuberculosis risk-group children are ill in most cases (82.6%). Examining the results of annual tuberculin diagnosis in 2478 children aged 1 to 14 years in a children's city polyclinic could ascertain that the most risk groups comprise children with a conversion of tuberculin tests (5.

Statistical analysis of structural and kinetic characteristics of fungal colony growth with Trichoderma viride PERS.: S.F. Gray.

The mycelial colonies of Trichoderma viride were grown between two thin cellophane films for exact measurements. The results obtained testify to the fact that in a mature colony the average length of intercalary cells, the average number of intercalary cells in an internode and the average internode length are stable. At this stage of morphogenesis the mean internode length is shown to be equal to the product of the average intercalary cell length and the average number of intercalary cells in an internode.

[Significance of a children's tuberculosis sanatorium].

The paper analyzes a contingent of children and adolescents from a tuberculous sanatorium in 2000-2002. It was established that the children and adolescents with local forms of tuberculosis amounted to 14.5%, the children with a variety of tuberculin reactions were 33.
