Pham, P. K., Behar, S. M., Berg, B. M., Upperman, J. S., & Nager, A. L. (2018).
Pediatric Online Disaster Preparedness Training for Medical and Non-Medical
Personnel: A Multi-Level Modeling Analysis. Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 33(4),
349–354. DOI: 10.1017/s1049023x18000596
This article was published in Prehospital and Disaster Medicine journal in 2018. This
research study aimed to understand better how medical and non-medical hospital staff
work with online training regarding preparedness for pediatric disasters. In this research
study, improvements in the acquisition of knowledge of pediatric disaster prepainfulness were investigated within. Between the medical and non-medical staff of the
children's hospital, all of whom engaged in online training. Analysis and evaluation of
pediatric disaster preparedness training courses are required before the design and
implementation of a national program is feasible. The study location was a children's
community hospital serving a diverse, urban population in a large metropolitan area. In
2008, a multidisciplinary team within the Children's Hospital Los Angeles Pediatric
Disaster Education and Training Center developed an online training course using the
technique of developing A curriculum. This research study showed that medical staff
initially scored higher than non-medical staff in the planning, triage, and age-specific
care modules of an online pediatric disaster preparedness training course on average.
Still, in these three modules, they did not differ in their score change levels. This
research study showed that medical staff initially scored higher than non-medical staff in
the planning, triage, and age-specific care modules of an online pediatric disaster
preparedness training course on average. Still, in these three modules, they did not
differ in their score change levels. The study also found that in the disaster
management and hospital emergency code response modules, non-medical personnel
initially scored lower than medical staff on average, but had higher score change rates
in these two modules, and their scores increased through additional attempts. I question
the way the study was conducted and how results show the huge difference between
the medical staff and non-medical staff because medical staff are more knowledgeable
in the researched aspects of the study. I think this study shows the effectiveness of
online training in gaining new knowledge in disaster science, but the question is their
ability to implement this knowledge in the ground as operation.

Olympia, R. P., Rivera, R., Heverley, S., Anyanwu, U., & Gregorits, M. (2010). Natural
Disasters and Mass-Casualty Events Affecting Children and Families: A Description of
Emergency Preparedness and the Role of the Primary Care Physician. Clinical
Pediatrics, 49(7), 686–698. DOI: 10.1177/0009922810364657
This is a study conducted in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and Bronx County, New
York, aimed to determine how a small number of families comply with the national
disaster preparedness guidelines. Patients and Procedures.by using a questionnaire
were distributed simultaneously to these two counties. The questionnaire was designed
to reflect national guidelines for preparedness, based on the following information (1)
demographic information (2) specific recommendations for preparedness (3) the
perceived level of preparedness determined by self-assessment using a Likert scale
ranging. (4) perceived obstacles to disaster preparedness. A total of 1024
questionnaires were analyzed, and it was found that 35% (95% confidence interval [ CI ]
= 32-38) of the families were familiar with community evacuation plans, and 43% (95%
CI = 40-46) had a family emergency response plan. In addition, 17 percent (95 percent
CI = 15-19) of respondents addressed preparedness with their primary care physician;
this group of respondents was more likely to be familiar with neighborhood evacuation
plans and more likely to have an emergency response plan for their families. Such data
show that, for the most part, families are not in line with national preparedness
guidelines. Families that had discussed preparation with their primary care physician
were more likely to comply. I think this study used a different resource of information
about their population in order to come up with these results and conclusion I would
recommend farther research in a very populated and diverse area.

Article 1
Folayan, M., Allman, D., Haire, B., Yakubu, A., Afolabi, M., & Cooper, J. (2019).
Considerations for community engagement when conducting clinical trials during
infectious disease emergencies in West Africa. Developing World Bioethics, 19(2), 96–
105. https://doi.org/10.1111/dewb.12215
West Africa is not the only place in the world that emerging diseases strike. A novel
coronavirus that has the likes of SARs-COV is creeping across China, Japan, and the
world as it has entered the United States through the state of Washington. How we
respond to these disease outbreaks is critical, however how we research them is as
well. The prioritization of response over research does not imply that research is
unimportant during epidemics. This article can help create a foundation for research in
areas that are difficult to address when it comes to response and research in the fieldareas like research following a bioterrorist attack, agroterrorism attack, and accidental
release/breach of a highly contagious pathogen from a controlled environment. This
paper supports the guide produced by the World Health Organization called the Good
Participatory Practice for Trials of Emerging (and Re-emerging) Pathogens that are
Likely to Cause Severe Outbreaks in the Near Future and for which Few or No Medical
Counter-Measures Exist (GPP-EP). The methodology used in this paper, the Delphi
Technique, is a respected and accepted communication technique methodology for
research as it has experts converge on a correct answer through stability of results over
a number of rounds. This paper identifies good discussion points that can lead to
greater research in this area. The discussion includes limitations- one being that the
Delphi Technique could lead to points of dissent and contention being lost- which could
be a critical flaw. The paper makes a deliberate conclusion that it is imperative for
community engagement for clinical trials during infectious disease outbreaks.

Aas, P., & Aas, P. (2003). Future considerations for the medical management of nerveagent intoxication. Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 18(3), 208–216.
https://doi.org/10.1017/S1049023X00001072
This report serves an important purpose as it illustrates the need for pre-established
methodologies in the event of a nerve-agent event. I would go on to even say that this
report does a fairly good job at pointing out some of the larger causes for concern
among those planning and preparing for bioterror events. As an example, Novichoks
are described here in a report published in 2004. Many people had never heard of, or
comprehended them being used before the 2018 poisonings- forgetting that it was also
reportedly used in 1995. Giving a report this detailed in a distinguished journal such as
Prehospital and Disaster Medicine still has its limitations as it is not explicit research nor
is it a peer reviewed report- to the best of my knowledge. There are many sources cited,
n=71, within this report that would lend it to being a well-informed report but that still
holds a limitation. The conclusion does a prompt job at stating that there are certain call
to actions that should be addressed because of the things discussed in the reportstockpile antidotes and equipment, decontamination equipment, and analytical detection
means are among the few. Some of the other limitations are there is no conflict of
interest statement, no discussion, and no acknowledgements.

Article 1
Poncelet, I. L., & Delooz, H. (2016). International Perspectives on Disaster Management.
Koenig and Schultz's Disaster Medicine: Comprehensive Principles and Practices, 59.
According to the authors, the disaster caused by natural calamities has been considered inevitable
since events such as earthquakes and tsunamis are acts of God. However, with time disaster
management practices were introduced to reduce the impact of such catastrophes on society. The
article posits that healthcare professionals were at the forefront advocating for the establishment
of new ways to alleviate the adverse effect of the hazards. The primary concern was saving lives
and safeguarding public health when such disasters are encountered. Following this, there was
the improvement of the delivery of healthcare services by personnel as well as emergency care
for victims affected by such catastrophes. The authors were interested in providing the
perspective of healthcare professionals on the investigation of disaster management and
humanitarian aid provision.
Furthermore, it illustrated the evolution of disaster response protocols in the last four decades.
From the title of the article, it is evident that the contents of the text were meant for an
international audience that specializes in disaster management. The material is a credible source
that would be of importance to the study because it is part of the journal on disaster medicine.
This makes it one of the vital sources of information from the list, as evidenced by the different
points of view of the pioneer scholars in the disaster medicine field.
Article 2
Skryabina, E., Reedy, G., Amlôt, R., Jaye, P., & Riley, P. (2017). What is the value of health
emergency preparedness exercises? A scoping review study. International journal of
disaster risk reduction, 21, 274-283.
According to the authors, emergency exercises such as drills are crucial for emergency
operations. The authors have posited that such activities are an essential part of the stage of
emergency preparedness. Their study was aimed at determining whether or not the emergency
exercises were critical to improving the quality of care provided. One of the significant problems
that have led to the inability of emergency operations to deal with catastrophes effectively is the
lack of competent personnel to handle the responsibility. The article is premised on the findings
of other scholars who focused on emergency drills and involved activities.
Additionally, the authors identified the various types of emergency response activities that
were grouped into two broad categories, namely discussion-based and operation-based exercises.
The text provided valuable information on emergency preparedness that would be helpful in the
research topic. It is evident from the book that the message was intended for an audience that had
prior knowledge of emergency management procedures. This is one of the most reliable sources
in the list because the arguments made by the authors are based on credible information derived
from research conducted by other scholars but related to the topic of discussion.
