Introduction: Simulation is defined as "the processes by which we are trying to achieve results approximating clinical practice as closely as possible." It is a technique for replacing or completing real-life experiences with guided experiences.
Objective: To assess and explore clinical simulation practice and associated factors among nurse and midwife educators working at teaching institutions in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia.
Factors affecting emergency medical dispatchers decision making in stroke calls - a qualitative study.
BMC Emerg Med
November 2024
Faculty of Health, Welfare and Organisation, Østfold University College, Fredrikstad, Norway.
Objectives: Emergency Medical Communication Centers (EMCC) have a key role in the prehospital chain-of-stroke-survival by recognizing stroke patients and reducing prehospital delay. However, studies on EMCC stroke recognition report both substantial undertriage and overtriage. Since mis-triage at the EMCC challenges the whole chain-of-stroke-survival, by occupying limited resources for non-stroke patients or failing to recognize the true stroke patients, there is a need to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the dispatchers' routines and experiences.

Depression in adolescents is a serious mental health condition that can affect their emotional and social well-being. Detailed understanding of depression patterns and status of depressive symptoms in adolescents could help identify early intervention targets. Despite the growing use of artificial intelligence for diagnosis and prediction of mental health conditions, the traditional centralized machine learning methods require aggregating adolescents' data; this raises concerns about confidentiality and privacy, which hampers the clinical application of machine learning algorithms.
