    Abstract During a pandemic, a national government is often considered solely responsible for dealing with the outbreak with local-based policies. A whole-of-society approach to a pandemic is evidence-based and used successfully in countries with a history of pandemic infections. This collaborative approach assumes that no single entity has the capacity to successfully manage the dynamic, complex problems that arise in a pandemic environment. Application of the whole-of-society model globally would provide a more harmonious and concerted response with mutual and synergistic benefits to all affected nations. Central entities within the model include; Civil society, business and government. These are addressed at the community, local government and sub-national level. Nine essential services are also identified including Health, Defence, Law & Order, Finance, Transport, Telecommunication, Energy, Food, and Water. A continuing cycle of readiness, response and recovery of services encapsulates this model. Pandemics affect the whole of the world, a global whole-of-society approach is therefore needed to tackle them.

    Abstract We aimed to assess the superstitious belief that saying the word 'quiet' during an on-call period in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) causes a disproportionate increase in workload. A two-armed, single-centre, randomised trial was performed in a single-blinded fashion within the OMFS department at Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge. Duty on-call OMFS SHOs were assigned to a 'quiet group' or 'non-quiet group'. The former group was actively told that the on-call period would be 'quiet' whilst in all contexts in the latter this word was not used. Data were collected from 8am to 7pm from a period that spanned a total of 40 week-day on calls. The total number of bleeps was 491, the mean (SD) bleep count/day irrespective of treatment was 12.3 (4.6). The mean (SD) bleep count was 11.45 (4.15) for the control group and 13.1 (4.9) for the quiet (treatment) group. Welch's independent-sample t test identified no significant difference in the mean number of bleeps encountered between groups. Moreover, ANOVA identified no significant difference in the mean number of bleeps between days (F(4,35)=0.086, p=0.986). Statistical analysis was performed using R package version 3.6.2 (The R Foundation). Our study refutes the central dogma of all of medicine, which suggests that saying the word 'quiet' increases the clinician's workload during the working day. We identified no significant difference in the number of bleeps between different days of the week. OMFS sees a large breadth of presentations within the head and neck that requires a diverse set of skills to manage the varying presentations when on call.

    Abstract Mistakes will always happen whether at work or in our personal lives. We can never completely eliminate error, but learning and disseminating lessons from these mistakes to others is essential. Human factors application for colleagues in healthcare, particularly in low- and medium-income countries (LMIC) can greatly improve patient safety and aid better team working and staff morale. Factors such as hunger, dehydration anger, and tiredness, all reduce personal performance and can raise the risk of personal error. It is vital that we understand and optimize interaction within the healthcare team members. As part of this, ineffective communication, steep hierarchy and loss of situational awareness can lead to compromised patient safety and potentially serious error. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of human factors for healthcare colleagues in LMIC. We highlight ways to reduce the chances of error and improve patient safety by recognizing and applying various human factors to our day to day practices.

    Abstract Background: Non-Surgical Facial Aesthetics (NSFA) encompasses a range of minimally invasive procedures. Complications associated with NSFA often present to local Emergency Departments. There is no representation of NSFA in the undergraduate curriculum. Medical students appear to have little to no exposure to NSFA during their training.The main aims of this study were to gain an insight into the views of final year medical students in pursuing a career in NSFA and assessing their understanding of NSFA competence and complications of common procedures. Method: ology: An online survey was completed by 148 medical students across two English Universities. 106/148 (71.6%) of students were from University A and 42/148 (28.4%) were from University B. Results: 47.6% (70/148) of medical students would consider pursuing a career in NSFA after graduating from medical school. 76.3% (87/148) and 80.7% (92/148) of students were not aware of the complications associated with the administration of dermal fillers and Botox injections respectively. Most medical students felt a single day training program in NSFA was sufficient to administer non-surgical rhinoplasty 67.8% (99/148) dermal fillers 67.1% (98/148) and Botox injections 68.5% (100/148). Conclusion: Despite a large proportion of medical students considering a career in NSFA the majority were unaware of the common complications. Incorporation of NSFA into undergraduate curriculum should improve enhance patient safety, effective management of complications and augment future learning and career progression. This may be achieved by through signposting, student-selected components and as part of structured head and neck teaching.

    Abstract Introduction: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction is common, with a greater prevalence in females. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used for clinical investigation, ultrasonography represents a potential alternative in some clinical scenarios. We designed a protocol for ultrasonographic evaluation of the TMJ and assessed its reliability. Presentation was compared between the sexes to establish whether an anatomical dichotomy underlies the female preponderance of TMJ dysfunction.
    Materials and methods: Ultrasound imaging of the TMJ was carried out in the longitudinal and oblique planes. Standard images were produced using model skulls and healthy volunteers. Measurements were made between the temporal bone, mandibular condyle, joint capsule and overlying skin, as well as of condylar translation during mouth opening. Both joints were scanned in 50 healthy volunteers. Measurements were repeated to evaluate reliability. A novel classification system was used to assess lateral condylar morphology.
    Results: The protocol facilitated reliable visualization of key anatomical features of the TMJ (average intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.75,
    Conclusions: Ultrasonography provides reliable views of the TMJ in two planes: longitudinal and oblique. Observed sexual dimorphism in TMJ anatomy might be associated with the female preponderance of dysfunction. With a standardized scanning protocol, ultrasound could provide a rapid, cost-effective alternative to MRI as a point-of-care imaging tool in TMJ clinics.
