Abstract

Backgrounds: Neurophobia is a fear of neurology among medical students. Early detection is necessary for prevention and further treatment because neurophobia will have a negative impact on patient care. The objective of this study is to investigate the occurrence of neurophobia among medical students. Methods and Materials: A cross-sectional study using the validated NeuroQ questionnaire was distributed to Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia (FMUI) students. Inclusion criteria are age ≥18 years, pre-clinical and clerkship students, able to read, understand, speak Indonesian and answer questions independently, and willing to participate in research. Exclusion criteria are questionnaire data that is not filled in completely. Descriptive and comparative tests were carried out to analyze variables. Results: A total of 89 FMUI students completed the questionnaire with an average NeuroQ score of 17.22 (SD 1.999). Most of the students (73 students; 82%) had a NeuroQ score ≥16 points, 32 students (36%) had neurophobia, and 41 students (46%) had marked neurophobia. Gender was not related to the total NeuroQ score (p=0.815). There was no significant difference between pre-clinical and clerkship students with the total NeuroQ score (p=0.246). Conclusions: Most students experience neurophobia. New strategies are needed to change students' perceptions of neurology.

Abstract

Introduction: Triage data plays an essential role in the initial assessment and prioritization of emergency patients. However, the association between triage parameters and short- term mortality remains underexplored. Evaluating 24-hour and 48-hour mortality may serve as an indicator of the effectiveness of triage and early resuscitation efforts. Objectives: To determine the relationship between emergency department triage parameters and short-term mortality (24-hour and 48-hour) among patients treated at an academic teaching hospital. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on all patients admitted to the emergency department from January to February 2024. Demographic and clinical data obtained during triage were analyzed. Bivariate and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with 24-hour and 48-hour mortality. Results: A total of 1,976 patients were included. The 24-hour and 48-hour mortality rates were 1% and 5%, respectively. Significant predictors of 24-hour mortality were triage category (OR = 4.42; 95% CI 1.93–10.09), respiratory rate (OR = 1.09; 95% CI 1.02–1.16). Predictors of 48-hour mortality included age (OR = 1.02; 95% CI 1.008–1.036), triage category (OR = 3.23; 95% CI 2.23–4.67), respiratory rate (OR = 1.08; 95% CI 1.03–1.13), systolic blood pressure (OR = 0.98; 95% CI 0.97–0.99), and mental status (OR = 3.58; 95% CI 2.11–6.07). Conclusion: Several routinely collected data during initial admission to the emergency unit are independently associated with both 24-hour & 48-hour mortality. These results highlight that triage data can serve as meaningful predictors of early mortality and may support rapid risk stratification, resource allocation, and operational decision-making in the Emergency Department.
