Study on the Effectiveness of a Copper Electrostatic Filtration System “Aerok 1.0” for Air Disinfection
The results highlight the effectiveness of AEROK 1.0 ® in reducing airborne contamination. The approach carried out represents a contribution to the definition of a standardized model for evaluating the effectiveness of devices to be used for air disinfection
Mental health of medical students belonging to sexual minorities
Screening for depression in primary care with Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)
What about Your Body Ornament? Experiences of Tattoo and Piercing among Italian Youths
educational interventions for both professionals and communities are needed to improve the awareness and the control of health risks related to body art throughout the Italian territory
Assessing Undergraduates’ Perception of Risks Related to Body Art in Italy
Tattooing and piercing may lead to health complications. The present multicenter cross-sectional study aimed to assess awareness and knowledge of health risks related to body art and to identify their possible determinants among a large sample of undergraduates in Italy. A web-based questionnaire collecting information on socio-demographic characteristics, awareness, knowledge, and some potential predictors was administered to undergraduates atte…
Evaluation of Air Contamination in Orthopaedic Operating Theatres in Hospitals in Southern Italy
Postoperative infections are a concern, especially in total knee and total hip arthroplasty. We evaluated the air quality in orthopaedic operating theatres in southeastern Italy to determine the level of bacterial contamination as a risk factor for postoperative infection. Thirty-five hospitals with operating theatres focused on total knee and total hip arthroplasty participated. We sampled the air passively and actively before surgeries began fo…
Evaluation of Legionella Air Contamination in Healthcare Facilities by Different Sampling Methods
Healthcare facilities (HF) represent an at-risk environment for legionellosis transmission occurring after inhalation of contaminated aerosols. In general, the control of water is preferred to that of air because, to date, there are no standardized sampling protocols. Legionella air contamination was investigated in the bathrooms of 11 HF by active sampling (Surface Air System and Coriolis ® μ) and passive sampling using settling plates. During t…
Indoor microclimatic study for Cultural Heritage protection and preventive conservation in the Palatina Library
Knowledge about tuberculosis among undergraduate health care students in 15 Italian universities
Although our data showed sufficient knowledge on tuberculosis, this survey underlines the considerable need for improvement in knowledge about the disease, especially among nursing students. In light of the scientific recommendations concerning tuberculosis knowledge among students, progress of current health care curricula aimed to develop students' skills in this field is needed
Epidemiology of tuberculosis in a low-incidence Italian region with high immigration rates
In low-incidence regions, prevention and control of TB among sub-groups at risk such as the foreign-born population is a matter of public health concern. In addition, increasing immigration rates may affect TB epidemiology. TB among immigrants is characterized by particular clinical features and risk factors, which should be analyzed in order to plan effective action
Italian multicenter study on infection hazards during dental practice
These findings confirm that some Italian dental surgeries show high biocontamination, as in other European Countries, which highlights the risk of occupational exposure and the need to apply effective measures to reduce microbial loads
