- W4386084238 abstract "Abstract Introduction: The frequency of disasters world-wide has significantly increased in recent years, leading to an increase in the number of mass-casualty incidents (MCIs). These MCIs can overwhelm health care systems, requiring hospitals to respond quickly and effectively, often with limited resources. While numerous studies have identified the challenges in managing MCIs and have emphasized the importance of hospital disaster preparedness, there is a research gap in the preparedness level and response capacities of district hospitals in Nepal. Study Objective: This study attempts to fill this gap by understanding the perception of hospital staff in managing MCIs in district hospitals of Nepal. Methods: A qualitative case study was conducted in three district hospitals in Nepal. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the hospital personnel, using an interview guide. An inductive thematic analysis was carried out to understand their perception on the most recent MCI management. Results: Three themes emerged from the data analysis: enablers in MCI management, barriers in MCI management, and recommendations for the future. Use of multiple communication channels, mobilization of entire hospital teams, mobilization of police in crowd control, presence of disaster store, and pre-identified triage areas were the major enablers that facilitated successful MCI management. Nonetheless, the study also revealed challenges such as a lack of knowledge on MCI response among new staff, disruptions caused by media and visitors, and challenges in implementing triage. Conclusion: This study emphasized the importance of hospital disaster preparedness in managing MCIs and highlighted the significance of overcoming barriers and utilizing enablers for an efficient response. The findings of this study can provide the basis for the Ministry of Health and Population Nepal and district hospitals to plan initiatives for the effective management of MCIs in the future." @default.
