Disasters can disrupt normal healthcare processes, with serious effects on children who depend upon regular access to the health care system. Children medical complexity (CMC) are especially at risk. These have chronic conditions, and may technology, like feeding tubes. Without clear, evidence-based processes connect teams, families struggle services supports they need during disasters. There is limited research about this topic, which has been pushed forward in importance as a result of COVID-19 pandemic. The authors therefore conducted rapid scoping review intention inform policy processes. Both peer-reviewed gray literatures disaster, CMC, communication were searched summer 2020 spring 2021. Twenty six relevant articles identified, from four main themes extracted: 1. Cooperative collaborative planning. 2. Proactive outreach, engagement, response. 3. Use existing social networks families. 4. Return usual routines. Based review, good practices appear involve including families, professionals, other stakeholders, themselves pre-disaster planning; service providers using proactive outreach outset crisis event; working peer neighborhood for support; employing multiple two-way channels, media, families; re-establishing soon possible, include virtual connections; addressing mental issues well physical functioning; prioritizing resumption daily Above all, well-established ongoing relationship among children, their caregivers, teams could reduce disruptions when disaster strikes.

This study aimed investigate prevalence correlates ICD-11 posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) those living earthquake-affected areas Turkey. sample convenience 527 adults Prevalence rates gender differences exposure earthquake-related traumatic events were investigated. Moreover, PTSD computed, demographic trauma-related assessed using logistic regression analyses. Most (99.2%; n = 523) experienced at least one event, with majority experiencing multiple events. Findings demonstrated high endorsement symptom clusters, 54.1% meeting criteria for diagnosis probable PTSD. Correlates associated increased risk include female gender, physical injury earthquake, family or loved ones being higher quartiles. These findings indicate levels trauma among survivors recent earthquakes which occurred identification useful identifying Turkish who are most likely need support.

Natural disasters are large-scale catastrophic events, and they increasing in frequency severity. Converging evidence indicates that the mental health consequences of extensive often associated with trauma disruption personal socioeconomic factors people’s lives. Although most individuals experiencing disaster-related traumatic events do not develop illnesses, some experience adverse psychological effects disasters. These begin immediately following a disaster may persist for extended periods. In this article, we summarize literature findings to provide narrative review focuses on natural An overview research field is provided, ordered into theoretical frameworks. Then, development course psychopathology regarding aftermath described methodological context. Next, understanding as an event transition highlighted, impact disaster-specific discussed. Lastly, potential relationship between transitional speculated on, implications The can be direct or indirect, short-term long-term, extent depends recovery process affected community. Also, propose possible merits using Transitional Impact Scale context by assessing features its health. We conclude suggesting direction future terms measuring community settings (affected vs. non-affected) also considering cross-cultural cross-regional differences. recent decades, large amount knowledge has been gathered from research, but, still, more needed resolve irregular through refining variations.

However, the causes death among those diseases during and radiation disasters remain unclear. Methods To minimize prevent deaths in future disasters, we analyzed summarized six cases Minamisoma City, a municipality near Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. Results Patients were generally treated for diseases. In one case, patient was forced to evacuate because hospital closure, his condition worsened he repeatedly admitted discharged from hospital. another patient’s depression returned home increased medication drinking insomnia loss appetite. Discussion overall findings revealed that, many cases, evacuation caused deteriorate chronic phase, which eventually resulted sometime disaster. mitigate life, must be addressed phases large-scale including

Abstract The medical situation during disasters often differs from that at usual times. Disasters can lead to significant mortality be difficult monitor. types of disaster-related deaths are largely unknown. In this study, we conducted a survey categorize the caused by radiation disaster. A total 520 people living in Minamisoma City, Fukushima Prefecture, time Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, who were certified have died due causes surveyed. We divided participants into those home earthquake and hospitals or facilities when disaster struck hierarchical cluster analysis two groups. Disaster-related could seven groups for five Each group showed different characteristics, such as "the with disabilities," receiving care," depression," it became evident not only uniform post-disaster support, but support tailored characteristics each is necessary.
