Abstract

Introduction: A catastrophic landslide in Batang Kali, Hulu Selangor, Malaysia on December 16, 2022, displaced 16 million cu ft of soil, resulting in 61 rescues and 31 fatalities. Search and Rescue (SAR) team members face significant health risks and traumatic experiences during such operations. Objectives: This case study examines four key aspects of SAR operations, that is the efficacy of global health management for SAR teams, the physical and mental health implications on personnel during extended operations, the assessment of environmental health hazards in the disaster area and their mitigation measures, and the documentation of key lessons learned for future operational improvements. Methods: This is a case study on piloting innovative composite questionnaire on global assessment of health risks of SAR team members. The environmental health assessments were conducted using an adapted form from MOH Malaysia Guidelines for the Diagnosis, Management, Prevention and Control of Leptospirosis, 2011. The mental health using Whooley and GAD-2 questionnaires and the rest of the assessments including physical health using adapted MOH Malaysia Flood Preparedness Guidelines, 2008. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics. A one-stop health base was established for surveillance, coordination, and support. Results: Of 509 SAR team members, 56 (11%) participated. Physical health screening (n=18) revealed physical injuries (37.5%), hypertension (25%), mental health issues (25%), and one cardiovascular accident (12.5%). Mental health screening (n=29) identified three (10.3%) positive cases requiring counselling. Nine members attended Psychological First Aid sessions (44% psychoeducation, 33% relaxation, 23% sleep hygiene). No infectious diseases were reported during or one-month post-operation. Discussion & Conclusion: This novel model demonstrates effective comprehensive health monitoring during disaster response. The study supports pre- and post-deployment health screenings and improved interagency coordination, serving as a framework for future emergency responses.

Abstract

Introduction: Occupational safety and health (OSH) are activities to guarantee and protect the safety and health of all workers through efforts to prevent work accidents and work-related diseases. Indonesian regulation concerning the OSH management system state that every company must implement this system in the work area, particularly nuclear facilities, which have a high potential danger level. Objective: The study aims to assesss the efficacy of a radiation safety management system as an effort to protect academic citizens, society, and the environment from the effects of radiation. Methods: This case study used a qualitative descriptive method, including observation, interviews, and document analysis on implementation of radiation safety management requirements in accordance to the prescribed regulations. Result: The result shown that the institute implemented radiation safety management requirements in accordance to the regulations and international guidelines. Conclusions: The radiation safety management system at the institute complies with Indonesian regulations, Indonesia Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency regulations, and the International Atomic Energy Agency guidelines which require comprehensive evaluation to ensure adequate radiation protection and safety management implementation. Ensuring the everyday radiation culture reduces the risks in disaster situations.

Abstract

Introduction: During disasters, older adults are vulnerable to indirect health effects caused by evacuation-related environmental changes. Despite existing reports of depression and cognitive decline in this population, detailed case-based analyses during prolonged evacuations following radiation disasters remain limited. Objective: This case study aims to examine the impact of evacuation on cognitive function and subsequent health decline in an older adult. Methods: We analyzed medical records, evacuation documents, and semi-structured interviews with the bereaved family. These sources were integrated and chronologically organized to assess the health impact of prolonged displacement. Results: An 88-year-old man, evacuated following the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, experienced initial delirium, a temporary recovery upon returning home, and a relapse upon re-evacuation. Continuous displacement and repeated environmental changes led to progressive cognitive and physical decline, ultimately resulting in a disaster-related death. Conclusions: This case illustrates that evacuation during disasters can have serious impacts on the cognitive function and overall health of older adults. In particular, older individuals who are at risk of cognitive decline should be promptly relocated to evacuation sites where they can receive immediate and continuous medical and social support. Such measures are essential for mitigating health risks among older populations in future disasters.

Abstract

Introduction: On October 1, 2022, a post-match crowd disturbance at Kanjuruhan Stadium in Malang gave rise to a mass-casualty incident, highlighting deficiencies in disaster preparedness and readiness of medical care teams who are responsive to potential disasters occurred soccer event. Objective: This paper analyses the Kanjuruhan tragedy within the framework of disaster preparedness and mass-casualty management using only data from the initial report and presentation slides. Methods: A qualitative case study based on the Joint Independent Fact-Finding Team report, media reports, and medical responders' testimonies in webinars, as well as an interview with a pre-hospital care coordinator. Data were thematically coded by 5 areas: risk assessment, medical readiness, events timeline, hospital response and coordination. Results: Spectator venues were fit for purpose from the athlete’s point of view but not so much from a spectators. No formal coordination system for command, evacuation, referral, communication between emergency medical service and hospital existed before the event. The use of tear gas caused problems with respiratory distress and crowd crush, while hospitals experienced a lack of patient coordination during influxes, poor triage and resource limitations. Conclusions: The event demonstrates major deficiencies in large-scale events and mass casualty management. Tougher regulations, unified command systems, compatible communications and risk-based planning can help prevent such catastrophes
