The impact of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive events on Emergency Departments: An integrative review

 

I was invited to speak at the Qatar Health 2021 conference on the topic of disaster health. This presentation focused on the findings of an integrative literature review relating to Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear [CBRN] events and their impact on Emergency Departments [EDs]. The literature review aimed to identify papers relating to the impact of CBRN events on ED and to analyze these papers for lessons learnt to strengthen ED preparedness. The presentation explored the global epidemiology of disasters, the nature of CBRN events, ED preparedness, clinician education, willingness and resources. The Qatar Health 2021 conference theme related to mass gathering events. As such, this presentation discussed the intersect between ED preparedness for CBRN events in the context of mass gathering events.

Novel respiratory viruses in the context of mass gathering events: A systematic review to inform event planning from a health perspective


I was invited to speak at the Qatar Health 2021 conference on the topic of mass gathering events. This presentation focused on a review of the literature regarding novel respiratory viruses in the context of mass gathering events. This presentation synthesised the literature relating to SARS-CoV-1, H1N1pdm09, and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) in the context of mass gathering events.  Previously published infection prevention and control strategies were presented against a framework of pre, during, and after mass gathering event considerations. These infection preventions and control strategies o have implications for both event organisers and health officials when recommencing events in the context of COVID-19.
