    Abstract In order to reduce the transmission of pathogens, and COVID-19, WHO and NHS England recommend hand washing (HW) and/or the use of hand sanitizer (HS). The planetary health consequences of these different methods of hand hygiene have not been quantified. A comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) was carried out to compare the environmental impact of the UK population practising increased levels of hand hygiene during the COVID-19 pandemic for 1 year. Washing hands with soap and water was compared to using hand sanitizer (both ethanol and isopropanol based sanitizers were studied). The isopropanol-based HS had the lowest environmental impact in 14 out of the 16 impact categories used in this study. For climate change, hand hygiene using isopropanol HS produced the equivalent of 1060 million kg CO

    Abstract Post-operative quality of life (QOL) has become crucial in choosing operative approaches in thoracic surgery. However, compared to VATS and thoracotomy, QOL results post-RATS are limited. We compared QOL before and after RATS and between RATS, VATS, and thoracotomy. We conducted a retrospective review of lung cancer surgical patients from 2015 to 2020. Patients completed validated EORTC QOL questionnaires (QLQ-C30 and QLQ-LC13). Results were analysed using the EORTC Scoring Guide, with statistical analysis. A total of 47 (94%) pre- and post-RATS questionnaires were returned. Forty-two patients underwent anatomical lung resections. In addition, 80% of patients experienced uncomplicated recovery. All global and functional QOL domains improved post-operatively, as did most symptoms (13/19). Only four symptoms worsened, including dyspnoea (

    Title translation Misbelieves about medical communication.
    Abstract Despite a growing body of evidence about the importance of good communication skills in healthcare, every day practice shows several common myths or false believes about it. In the opinion of the authors these misbelieves are often behind doctors' or students' negative attitudes, which hinder the quality improvement or shift towards patient-centered approach. The scope of this article is to present the most frequently heard misbelieves from our empirical experiences in line with the evidence derived from current research data.

    Title translation Aspects of communication regarding medical malpractice suits.
    Abstract Due to problems experienced in health care, there is an increased amount of malpractice suits nowadays. Nevertheless, some physicians are more likely to be sued, or more frequently sued, than others. Numerous studies indicate that this phenomenon fundamentally results from a lack of interpersonal and communication skills on the part of the sued doctor, namely, deficiencies in questioning the patient, listening, conveying information, etc. Communication is of pivotal importance in patient care vis-à-vis medical errors as well. The majority of physicians aim to conceal the error, albeit this may lead to further deterioration of the patient's condition. In institutions where open communication regarding errors was introduced within the medical team and toward the patient and their family alike, the number of malpractice suits decreased. It is crucial to establish a means of support for doctors, and to promote communication trainings, as well as a supportive legal environment.

    Abstract As PACS becomes a reality the practical difficulties of installing the new technology become evident. The practical issues of developing a strategy, understanding the market, writing a business case, and an outline based specification are considered. The complexities of European procurement, the evaluation of responses, the contracting process and the problems of implementation, training, assessing the benefits and foreseeing the problems are covered. Provided there is careful attention to detail a hospital can expect to implement a successful PACS system.

    Abstract Introduction: To evaluate postoperative outcome and quality of life (QOL), comparing patients <80 years old to patients ≥ 80.
    Patients and methods: EORTC questionnaires, QLQ-C30 and QLQ-LC13 was used to assess QOL, in patients after surgery. Results were evaluated according to 3 age groups: <70, 70 to 79, and ≥80.
    Results: 106 patients were enrolled with 33 (<70), 25 (70-79), and 48 (≥80) patients per group. The median age was 74 years. 79% of patients had minimally invasive procedures, including 91% of those ≥80. Fifteen patients underwent wedge resections. Complication rates (18%, 32%, and 29%, P = .4) and median length of stay (4, 6, and 5 days, P = .2) were similar in all age groups, with no hospital mortality. One hundred one patients completed the questionnaires. Global QOL was highest among octogenarians. Overall functional and role QOL was higher among octogenarians than 70- to 79-year-olds, with emotional QOL higher than those <70 (P < .05). Social QOL in octogenarians was marginally lower than younger patients. Lung-specific symptom scores were at least 1.5 times lower than those <80 (P = .052). Patients aged 70 to 79 had the worst symptomatic and emotional effect on QOL. Surgical access and preoperative performance status did not affect final QOL across all age groups (P = .9 and P = .065). Among anatomical lung resections, QOL was higher in octogenarians than those 70 to 79 in all domains, and similar or higher than those <70 in most domains.
    Conclusion: Quality of life among octogenarians after surgery remains similar to younger patients even after anatomical lung resection. Surgery in octogenarians is safe, with minimal impact on postoperative QOL.
