A 27-year-old woman was admitted at 39 weeks' gestation for induction of labour for gestational diabetes. During artificial rupture of her membranes, cord prolapse occurred necessitating an emergency caesarean section. At closure, the incision, instead of being in the lower uterine segment, was found to be in the vagina about 1.5 cm below the anterior lip of the cervix. This was closed routinely, both mother and the baby made an uneventful recovery and at a 6 week postnatal check-up the vaginal wall was completely healed and normal.

Cardiac arrest is the most time-sensitive condition that personnel face in the emergency department. Optimal management consists of good quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the simultaneous performance of focused investigations to identify potential reversible causes, and the delivery of cause-specific treatments. In order to manage patients with cardiac arrest in an efficient manner, team members need to have clearly defined roles and ready access to required equipment.

This study organically integrates the safety, quality, cost, delivery, and people (SQCDP) management mode and lean management to create the SQCDP + lean safety management (SLSM) mode, which addresses certain problems faced by China's small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), such as imperfect safety management systems, poor regulatory implementation, challenging problem correction, and perfunctory management. It then explains the benefits proposed mode for SMEs and the establishment of a novel mode that aligns with the current safety production and operation management of SMEs. The application of the SLSM mode to a private machinery manufacturing company in Wenzhou resulted in the effective shouldering of safety responsibilities by the company, a year-on-year decrease in accident rates, and a significant increase in production efficiency, thereby providing corporate managers with guidance and suggestions for making improvements.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic entailed a global health crisis, significantly affecting medical service delivery in Germany as well as elsewhere. While intensive care capacities were overloaded by COVID cases, not only elective cases but also non-COVID cases requiring urgent treatment unexpectedly decreased, potentially leading to a deterioration in health outcomes. However, these developments were only uncovered retrospectively.

Purpose Of Review: Men face distinctive health-related challenges as a result of biological, behavioral, and sociocultural factors. In addition, the modern healthcare system does not offer men equal opportunities and options to ensure sex-specific access and delivery to health services. Men's health concerns are, indeed, often not addressed or even forgotten.
