Salem*, Waheed, M. sayed Ahmed ** *Department of community, Environment and occupational medicine Benha faculty of Medicine, Benha university.**Department of chest diseases, Benha faculty of Medicine, Benha University Zagazig University Medical Journal Jan, Feb (11) 2007 3 AIM OF THE WORK (1) To study some epidemiological features of newly diagnosed cases of tuberculosis in Benha chest hospital during the period of the study (20032006). (2) To determine treatment outcome of newly diagnosed cases of tuberculosis during the same period. 4 PATIENTS AND METHODS • • Retrospective study: Data were collected from patient files and registers. Suspected cases of tuberculosis were investigated through the following items: Postero - anterior X- ray view of chest. Sputum smear stained by Ziehl-Nelsen stain. 5 • Tuberculin testing. • Diagnosis of tuberculosis cases was Preformed according to guidelines of Egyptian National Tuberculosis Control Program. 6 Follow up of treatment :A) For new TB cases with sputum smear positive. B) For previously treated cases with sputum smear positive: C) For new TB cases with sputum smear negative . D) For patients with sputum smear negative (pulmonary, and extra- pulmonary TB). 7 OUTCOME OF TREATMENT • Cured • Completed treatment • Treatment failure • Defaulted • Died 8 CONCLUSION • Detection of newly diagnosed cases of T.B. in general had decreased (7.21% to 0.55%) and detection of T.B cases with smear positive had increased (40.23% to 55.05%). 9 • Cure rate among newly diagnosed cases of T.B. had improved (34.48% to 71.55%) and successful rate “cure + completed” had increased(49.42% to 80.73%) but still lower than the recommended (85%) . 10 • Treatment failure among newly diagnosed cases had decreased and defaulted cases are declined. 11 HOSPITAL BED UTILIZATION IN BOTH BENHA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL AND BENHA EDUCATIONAL HOSPITAL By Sabry A. Salem,* Salwa I. Mahmoud** *Department of Community , Environmental and Occupational Medicine Benha faculty of Medicine, Benha University **Department of Nursing Service Administration, Benha Faculty of Nursing, Benha Medical Journal May 2008 12 AIM OF THE WORK To assess hospital bed utilization in both Benha university hospital and Benha educational hospital through measuring some performance indicators related to it. 13 MATERIALS AND METHODS • Pre designed sheets were used to collect required data which had been collected monthly and included. • Date of admission and discharge for every patient. • Total number of admitted and discharged patients. • Total number of in-patient service days. 14 • Number of deaths/month for each selected department. • Total number of beds for each selected department. The period of hospital stay less than one day was calculated as one day and the day of admission and the day of discharge are considered as one day. 15 • The indicators used to assess hospital bed utilization were. 1-Average length of stay (ALOS) 2-Bed occupancy rate (B.O.R) 3-Turn over rate. (TOR) • 4- Turn over interval (TOI) 16 CONCLUSION Benha University hospital was relatively more efficient in bed utilization than Benha Educational hospital due to: Short hospital stay (4.02% days VS 5.03% days). High bed occupancy rate (70.16% VS 49.62%). High turn over rate (59.25 turn/bed VS 36.32 turn/bed). 17 EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY OF NOCTURNAL ENURESIS AMONG SCHOOL CHILDREN ATTENDING OUT PATIENT CLINICS OF BENHA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL By *Sabry A.

Benha Medical Journal Sept. 2005 66 AIM OF THE WORK To determine if there is an effect of mercury on an exposed population. 67 MATERIALS AND METHODS •The Questionnaire included information about amalgam preparation, mercury storage, and mercury spillages. • Also questions relating to other possible influences on psychomotor response. • The Questionnaire also covered some personal habits. 68 Biological measurements: •A sample of urine on the day of the visit to the surgery for analysis of mercury concentration. •Hair and nail mercury analysis subjects were asked for samples of head hair, finger nails, and toe nails. 69 •Environmental mercury concentrations. The concentrations of mercury vapor in the dental surgeries were measured. •Psychomotor performance psychomotor performance was measured with a package of eight tests. 70 CONCLUSION •Dentists were significantly more likely to have kidney disorders and memory disturbance (6.6% ,25.6 % ) more than controls ( 1.1% , 8.8 % ) while controls were significantly more likely to have loss of appetite more than dentists ( 13.3% ,6.6% ) 71 • Highly significant difference between urinary mercury concentration of dentists and controls (mean urinary mercury concentration for dentists 2.58 mmol while for controls 0.67mmol). 72 • Hair and nails of the dentist group had higher mercury concentration than that of the control group with insignificant difference. • Environmental mercury measurements showed concentrations of mercury above that of the occupational exposure standards in one or more separate areas. 73 • Significant difference in the scores of dentists and controls for number vigilance . 74 • No significant association between concentration of mercury in hair an finger nails and any of psychomotor tests. • Finally ; exposure to mercury at levels experienced by the dentists in the study does not have a detrimental effect on psychomotor performance . 75 RISK FACTORS OF OTITIS MEDIA AMONG CHILDREN OF SHARKIA GOVERNORATE BY Sami S.
