Background And Aim: COVID-19 is a devastating pandemic which seriously affected population health and world’s economy. With all advances to diagnose, treat and prevent COVID-19, public knowledge about COVID-10 and adoption of healthy behaviors to avoid infection remain the cornerstone of effective disease control. This study aims to explore public knowledge, adherence to protection practices and self-perception about COVID-19 during the pandemic in Saudi Arabia. Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Saudi Arabia from June to September 2020. People aged 18 years or older were invited to participate in an online questionnaire modified from the survey tool of the World Health Organization. The survey consisted of a total of 37 items assessing the demographics, knowledge, attitude and practice towards COVID-19. Results: The average COVID-19 knowledge score was 58.8%. More than two-third of participants were adherent to guidelines avoiding the infection. There was a positive moderate correlation between total knowledge score and total adherence score of protection. Majority reported very poor or poor level of knowledge. Most of participants reported that they have good knowledge on how to protect themselves. knowledge level was significantly higher among highly educated, younger male individuals with suspected or confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19. Conclusion: Saudi people with high educational level, younger age, males and individuals suspected or diagnosed to have COVID-19 were more likely to have higher knowledge score. Good COVID-19 knowledge is related with positive attitudes and appropriate COVID-19 practices, implying that health education programs focused at increasing COVID-19 knowledge can help encourage a positive attitude and promote safe practices. As the worldwide threat of COVID-19 continues to emerge, efforts through educational campaigns aimed at the public, particularly the undereducated, older females are important.

Childhood is an important period for determining long-term health in life. One of the biggest threats facing children is obesity. Globally, childhood obesity is reaching the level of a serious public health concern. In some countries, rates of obesity have more than doubled in the last two decades. For example, in Saudi Arabia a recent national study of 11,112 children aged from 2-7 years found the prevalence of obesity among Saudi children has almost doubled since 2002. Global literature shows that obesity is a complex issue and that many factors contribute to children becoming overweight. From a review of the Saudi literature, it is clear that no previous study has used observation as a research methodology to explore the factors affecting body weight in Saudi schools and this is the first study completed within the Islamic school context.
The aim of this study was to explore factors that affect body weight among boys in three types of school in Saudi Arabia (public, Islamic and private). A case study design and qualitative methods were adopted. Data were generated through observations, interviews with teachers and students, and by analysing documents. Three research committees from Cardiff University and the Saudi Ministry of Education approved the study. The total interviewees numbered 33 students and 18 teachers. The data analysis process was thematic and used inductive techniques, findings across all cases are presented under four major themes.
The school’s system and philosophy play a significant role in affecting body weight among Saudi boys in primary schools. This theme includes the teacher’s role, school canteen system, school programmes and the role of the Ministry of Education. For example, in the public and Islamic schools, canteens are important source of income and this directs each school to sell to students what they want regardless of its nutritional value. The school environment, its infrastructure and facilities was the second theme. Unlike the private school, the public and Islamic schools benefited from new, appropriate, designs. Both these two schools have outdoor sports facilities but they are not prepared to maintain and continue physical education lessons in extreme weather conditions. The students’ health behaviours are a further factor affecting body weight among Saudi boys at all types of primary school. This theme includes students’ preferences, society and community. Three factors that exist outside schools can also affect students’ body weight at all types of primary school. These are media, family, and languages. Drawing on these themes, recommendations are made for policy, practice and research.

Background: According to the evidence, accurate asthma knowledge and perceptions have a good link with medication adherence and frequent medical follow-up. Community knowledge, attitude, and perception (KAP) assessments are necessary for developing public health interventions. There is a dearth of community-based KAP research on asthma in KSA, since the majority of available information comes from hospital-based studies conducted in an urban context. Methods:A descriptive, cross-sectional study. to evaluate knowledge, attitude and practice about asthma at a single point of measurement, this is the most suitable design. This design enables the researcher to collect reliable data within short period. This study was conducted at primary health care centers in Qassim region, Saudi Arabia from 23-10-2022 until 31-12-2022. Results: The median age of asthmatic patientswas 29 years, with a range between 12 and 65 years. Almost more than half of them (n= 80, 55.6%) had completed university degrees. Some of thestudy participants reported having A comorbid disease besides asthma. Diabetes mellitus was the most frequent (n= 26, 18.1%) and hypertension comes in the second place among (n= 10, 6.9%). The duration of asthma diagnosis ranged from 3 months to 40 years with A median duration of diagnosis of 7 years. Participants knowledge, attitude and practice assessment was good among most of them (75%). Having observed asthma patients was associated with KAP on symptoms and triggers, whereas a younger age and having an asthmatic relative were independently associated with KAP on treatment. Participants with asthmatic relatives were three times more likely to have good KAP than their counterparts [(OR 3.04 95% (1.5–6.1)]. Conclusion: In Saudi Arabia, asthma knowledge and perceptions are limited. Appropriate investments in public awareness are urgently required.

Hi, Reddit, I am Gerardo Chowell, PhD, a professor of mathematical epidemiology at the School of Public Health at Georgia State University. I am currently researching the transmission dynamics of Middle East respiratory syndrome, also known as MERS, and the factors that can make an infectious disease outbreak more likely to spread. As many of you know, South Korea recently suffered an outbreak of MERS that was the largest to occur outside Saudi Arabia. The disease spread through hospitals and killed 36 people, infected more than 180 and led to the government imposing quarantines on nearly 17,000 people to get the outbreak under control. I conducted similar research during the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. *Thank you so much for your questions. I enjoyed chatting with everybody! *

Introduction The present study investigated knowledge, awareness, and barriers to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening from a sample of the general population in Saudi Arabia. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2022 and January 2023 among a sample of the general population in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The questionnaire consisted of demographics, knowledge and awareness, and questions about CRC screening barriers. Results A total of 1105 adults belonged to the general public [505 females (45.7%) and 600 males (54.3%)] recruited in this survey. The mean age of the respondents was 39.79±12.49. The internet was the primary source of CC information for most participants, 661(59.8%). Gender-wise comparison of general public responses regarding CRC knowledge and awareness and barriers to screening showed a mixed response. Analysis of participants’ knowledge regarding CRC and its risk factors and warning signs showed that 356(32.2%) people believed that the best age for the CRC test is 41–50 years, and 285(25.8%) responded they don’t know. Almost half of the participants, 539(48.8%), were not interested in attending awareness seminars about CRC, while 371(33.6%) were interested in attending awareness seminars about CRC. Only one-third of the respondents, 368(33.3%), knew of any tests or examinations used to detect CRC. Participants’ perceptions about colonoscopy-related and FOBT-related barriers to CRC screening disclosed that these are time-consuming, expensive, painful, embarrassing, etc. Conclusion Insufficient information, poor awareness, and several assumed barriers to CRC screening were found among study participants. There is a need to close knowledge gaps and offer them comprehensive information regarding CRC, as well as the availability and benefits of screening. In this aspect, social media can be extremely beneficial.

Similar to many slum areas across the globe, the living conditions are very unhealthy, and the people who live in Jeddah slum areas are endangered by contracting certain health complications and diseases. This paper investigated the predominant health issues that are related to the building conditions faced by the people who reside in Kilometre 2, the largest slum area in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. An online survey was used to collect data from fifty heads of household, selected using a snowballing technique; forty-nine responded. The results revealed that almost all of the respondents acknowledged the bad conditions of the buildings and had no access to clean water. The majority of them experienced building-related health illness, with allergies and dysentery as the most common. The results imply the need for government intervention and a joint effort from the public and private sectors to solve the problems.

Each year, Saudi Arabia arranges for Hajj, which attracts more than 2.5 million pilgrims from all over the world, making it one of the largest yearly mass gatherings. In 2020 and 2021 the Saudi government continued to plan for Hajj despite the COVID-19 pandemic by using a special care strategy that ensured the season was successful and free from COVID-19 and other contagious diseases. This was accomplished by limiting the number of pilgrims (and restricting them to domestic residents only) during Hajj, utilizing digital technologies to manage large gatherings, implementing an advanced healthcare system at the sacred sites, and employing skilled medical personnel. This chapter investigates if the new Hajj season management can be seen as a step toward achieving a green pilgrimage.

Background Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes and vapour devices) are the most commonly used form of alternative tobacco products (ATPs). The use of these vapour devices has been dramatically increasing worldwide, especially among current and former traditional cigarette smokers. A strong influence that will affect patients’ health attitudes and play a crucial role in tobacco control and smoking cessation are medical students, as they are future physicians. Therefore, in our study, we aimed to determine the prevalence rate of e-cigarettes and the level of knowledge among medical students in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study of medical students in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain using an online survey. This was distributed through social media platforms such as Twitter, WhatsApp, Telegram, and Facebook. Medical students of all years were included. The questionnaire was adapted from two previous studies. Results The study enrolled 1730 medical students. The majority of the participants did not recommend the use of e-cigarettes as a method for smoking cessation or believed that these types of ATPs lower the risk of cancer in comparison with traditional cigarettes. The data showed a strong association between gender and e-cigarette smoking, with the majority of current smokers being men (n = 184) and experimental smokers being women (n = 800). Moreover, an educational gap was discovered, as few of the students had received an education in their medical school’s curriculum on the use of e-cigarettes. There was a significant association between receiving an education at a medical school and having adequate knowledge of e-cigarettes. Conclusion The increasing number of e-cigarette users among medical students is concerning. Our study showed that students are not receiving a decent education on the use of ATPs during medical school, which urges further adjustment of the curriculum. This will play a huge role in their behaviour and the provision of future treatment plans to patients as physicians.

Introduction: In the Arab Gulf countries, anemia, including iron deficiency anemia )IDA(, considered one of the main public health problems. Although, the World Health Organization reported that IDA as the most common type of anemia, which made up half of all anemic cases all over the world, there were limited research performed among preschool children about anemia in Saudi Arabia. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of previously undiagnosed anemia and IDA among children between 2 to 6 years old. In this study, several risk factors that might contribute to the high prevalence of anemia were assessed. Methods: The study was carried out in Taif city during the period from January 2023 to April 2023. Blood samples were collected from 200 preschool children and analyzed for hematological parameters as well as related biochemistry tests to investigate the prevalence of previously undiagnosed anemia and IDA. Results: The majority of the study participants were Saudi 99% and aged 4 to 6 years 72.5%. Most of children participants, 92.5% had normal haemoglobin (Hb) concentration and normal levels of red blood cells (RBCs) and normal hematocrit indicating their non-anemia health status. In this study, previously undiagnosed anemia were reported within 6% of children indicated by low Hb concentration, low RBC count and abnormal low hematocrit level. Out of these undiagnosed anemic children, there were 25% diagnosed with IDA. Conclusions: Since, anemia and IDA are still a public health problem among preschool children in Saudi Arabia this study suggested that the hematological blood examination should be done to students as a requirement before school which may reveal the presence of previously undiagnosed anemia and might associated with low mantle and functional performance among children. Moreover, further studies are recommended at all regions of the Kingdome to investigate the underlying related risk factors, which will provide more insight ....

Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are a group of conditions that include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorders, specific learning disorders, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and other disorders. Raising a child with an NDD can be difficult because it affects the social lives of the parents and their relationships. It also requires the parents to develop another set of skills to deal with their child. These factors increase their risk of depression and anxiety.To measure the prevalence rates of depression and anxiety among parents of children with different NDDs, compare the rates between mothers and fathers, and measure the relevant associated factors.This study was a prospective, qualitative, cross-sectional, anonymous questionnaire-based study. The participants were 416 parents of children with NDDs in Saudi Arabia. The sample size was determined using the Richard Geiger equation with a 5% margin of error, a 95% confidence level, and a 50% response distribution. The screening was performed using a validated Arabic version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). These are short and understandable screening tools that assist in identifying and grading the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms. The participants were reached by distributing the questionnaire to parents who followed up with Saudi NDD-related associations, clinics, and psychiatric clinics from November 20 to May 8, 2022. The data were collected, reviewed, and then entered into SPSS 21.In total, 416 parents of children with NDDs in Saudi Arabia participated in the study. We demonstrated that 85.1% of parents of children with NDDs had depression and that 85.8% had anxiety. Mothers and fathers had similar rates of depression and anxiety. No significant difference was found between the type of NDD and rates of depression and anxiety in parents.Children with NDDs affect their parents' mental health in terms of increased rates of depression and anxiety. This increase is not correlated with a specific etiology. Healthcare professionals who care for children with NDDs should also assess parental mental health and seek an early diagnosis of mental illness to ensure that the appropriate interventions are provided for parents.

Background: Diversifying the conventional role of community pharmacists from dispensing to involvement in public health services could help in optimized patient care and ultimately good health practices. The current study aimed to ascertain the involvement of community pharmacists, barriers to involvement, their preparedness towards the provision of public health services in the future, and effective strategies to improve their existing role, especially in remote areas of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Al-Jouf region of Saudi Arabia (KSA), between January to April 2023. A convenient sampling technique was used to recruit community pharmacists (CPs). A self-designed and validated questionnaire was used for data collection. The relative importance index (RII) was utilized to rank the barriers to participation in public health services. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using SPSS. Results: This study recruited 119 participants (mean age: 32.2 ± 7.9; male gender: 67.2%). Of these, 91.6% were involved in the provision of public health services at community pharmacies. Majority of CPs (n = 114/119, 95.8%) provided drug use-related written information to the patients, and the least practiced service was screening of dyslipidemia (n = 81; 68.1%). According to RII, the major barrier was the lack of time given by patients (RII: 0.812). Overall, the majority of the pharmacists (n = 94/119; 79%) were willing to provide public health services. Most of the CPs reported that empowerment through education and awareness (n = 100/119; 84%) is most effective strategy to enhance the involvement of pharmacists in public health services. Conclusions: Findings of the present study underscored the adequate participation of community pharmacists in public health activities. Further studies are required in other remote regions of KSA to get a clear insight into the overall participation of community pharmacists in public health services and generalize the findings.

The identification of current gaps in high-impact medical research in Saudi Arabia has international significance due to the trend of collaborative research in the field of health and medicine and the focus on knowledge-sharing. The purpose of this study is to assess the current focus, gaps, and priorities in health research in Saudi Arabia.We employed a mixed-method research approach to achieve research objectives. (1) a systematic review of scientific research studies that are published between January 2020 to January 2022 in the top fifty Q1 medical science journals (2) a cross-sectional survey collected data from professionals employed in various organizations including the Ministry of Health (MoH), Ministry of Education (MoE), health organizations and universities, and the health industry. The close-ended survey questions inquired about the broad and specific areas of ongoing health research projects by these researchers and organizations in Saudi Arabia.The literature search on databases identified Science Direct (n = 741), Pub Med (n = 244) and Google Scholar (n = 15,600). After screening, (n = 26) original studies were selected for detailed evaluation and synthesis. Among these (n = 7) studied infectious diseases, (n = 7) cancer, and cardiac disease (n = 5). These studies focused on the etiology, treatment management and therapy outcomes of these health conditions. The survey was completed by (n = 384) respondents from these organizations. Most of the ongoing research projects focus on clinical sciences (27%) followed by basic sciences (24%) and public health research (24%) and a limited number of researchers were involved in healthcare management (2%) and informatics (2%). Most research focused on kidney and liver disorders (80%), obesity (74%), diabetes (74%), hormonal diseases (64%), and infectious disease (66%); it is equally important to design and fund research in some of the neglected areas including reproductive health (3%), physical and mental disabilities (1%).Findings suggest that current gaps in original research from Saudi Arabia are in healthcare service quality, reproductive health, physical and mental disabilities and health informatics. Researchers and funding agencies and international collaborative projects should prioritize these areas.

The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected healthcare systems and had profound implications for healthcare professionals, cost-effective progress, public trust and social relations. The main aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on radiology services in Saudi Arabia in terms of economic aspects, personal interaction, social distancing and long-term improvements. Method: A cross-sectional study design was applied using an online questionnaire, which was distributed among healthcare professionals working in radiology departments in Medina region between January and May 2023. A total of 110 participants agreed to take part in this study. In terms of the financial fallout, participants agreed that the COVID-19 pandemic caused a hiring freeze and salary cuts (39%), a reduction in the workforce (47.2%) and imaging capacity (60%), and delayed purchase of required research/imaging equipment (53.5%), but less potential loss of experienced staff (46.4%). In relation to the disruption to normal operations, participants agreed that the COVID-19 pandemic had affected the progress of research projects (63.6%), remote work transition (51.8%), healthcare professionals’ reorganisation (64.6%) and personal interaction with patients (76.4%). With regard to safety concerns, participants agreed that the pandemic caused rescheduling of appointments to become slower (65.5%), annual screenings to be skipped (44.5%), misdiagnoses and delayed treatment (31.8%), and difficulties in recruiting participants for human trials (47.3%). Participants also agreed that the COVID-19 pandemic had led to some positive changes and long-term improvements for radiology, in terms of collaboration with physicians (54.6%), team communication (59.1%), wellness (60.9%), efficient workflow (47.3%), sharing data (50%) and remote learning (71.8%) This study revealed that the COVID-19 pandemic has had some negative impacts on and led to a number of long-term improvements in radiology services in Saudi Arabia.

Background: In Saudi Arabia, cultural and language differences between expatriate nurses and patients affect the quality of nursing care. Hence, the Kingdom is eying Saudization in this field. The productivity of nurses can affect the productivity of the whole health system. The aim of this study was to investigate the health-care productivity of Saudi female nurses and socio-demographic determinants of their productivity.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 256 randomly selected Saudi female nurses in the Qassim region. The nurses who were not working in public hospitals; not giving direct patient care or had <1-year patient-care experience were excluded from the study. The nurses’ work productivity was measured using a 17-item index.
Results: The mean age of the nurses was 30.2 ± 5.6 years. Among the nurses, 62.6% were currently married, 33% were never married, and 4.4% were divorced/widowed. Most of the nurses were not willing to serve male patients (70.3%); they wanted to work only in female units (66.1%) and did not prefer night shifts (50.8%). Overthe past 1 year, most of them demonstrated tendency of taking emergency leave (64.2%) and sick leave (56.4%), while 27.3% had unexcused absences and 19.5% had unplanned but excused absences. In addition, 20.3% demonstrated a tendency of taking frequent breaks during duty hours and 18.9% demonstrated tendency of being late on duty. Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed that being married was associated with 1.66 points decrease in the productivity index score when compared to never married nurses. Having one more child under 5 years of age was associated with 0.75 points increase in the productivity index score. In addition, nurses who employed household workers at home scored 1.04 points less than those who did not.
Conclusions: Health-care productivity index score was lower among married Saudi female nurses than never married nurses. However, aspects of married life commonly believed to cause home work-life conflicts, such as number of children, living with or without family, having disabled children in household and personal factors such as age did not have statistically significant influence on the productivity index score. It is possible that unexplained cultural issues associated with being married may be responsible for a lower productivity index score among married female nurses in Saudi Arabia.

The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence of obesity, overweight, and risk factors in pediatric patients attending outpatient clinics at a public sector hospital in the central province of Saudi Arabia.This cross-sectional study was conducted in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, between January 2022 and October 2022. The target population was aged 6-15 years. We conducted on-site obesity assessments utilizing questionnaire-based interviews with patients attending outpatient clinics. Data collection was carried out with the help of parents, where required. Using BMI growth charts for Saudi children and teenagers, the weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) of subjects were computed.A total of 576 responses with a response rate of 64% were received and included in the study. In the current study, the majority (41.1%) of the patients were aged between 11 and 12 years old, followed by 37.0% of the students aged between 13 and 15 years old, and 21.9% of students aged between 8 and 10 years old. In the current study, 54.2% of the patients had normal weight, 15.6% of patients were underweight, 16.7% of patients were overweight, and 13.5% were obese. In this study, the prevalence of overall obesity was 2.3 times more prevalent in children aged 11 to 12 years (OR=2.30; p=0.03), followed by ~2 times higher levels in children aged 13 to 15 years (OR=2.30; p=0.03). Moreover, 2.11 times higher prevalence of obesity (OR=2.11; p=0.77) in those who regularly took food (especially lunch) from the school cafeteria. A significant ~2.5 high obesity level was recorded for students who consumed fizzy/soft drinks four or more times per week (OR=2.38; p=0.007).Saudi Arabia still has a high rate of overweight and obesity among children of school-going age, which is a significant public health issue. To properly address and control this issue, policies at the national, local, and individual levels must be implemented. Notably, there was also a high prevalence of being underweight, and this issue needs to be brought up as well.

Abstract Abstract Background: A novel coronavirus was identified at the end of 2019 in Wuhan City, China. Later, the World Health Organization (WHO) named the disease caused by the virus coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and declared a pandemic in March 2020. Saudi and global health agencies have provided various COVID-19 knowledge tools and facts to the general public. Therefore, this study aims to assess COVID-19 knowledge among the general public in Saudi Arabia at the early stages of the pandemic, including knowledge of prevention practices, home quarantine measures, and compliance with governmental restrictions. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in March 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Saudi Arabia. The study included 1006 participants who responded to a random online COVID-19 public knowledge questionnaire that included five sections: demographic characteristics, general knowledge, prevention practices, home quarantine measures, and knowledge of governmental restrictions. Data were collected from a random sample recruited through the circulation of the questionnaire on social media platforms and were then analysed by descriptive statistical methods. Three levels of knowledge were established: excellent, intermediate, and poor. Differences in the percentages of participants with different knowledge levels by the demographic variables were analysed using the chi-square test. Results: Regarding overall general knowledge of COVID-19, 75%, 24%, and 1% of the participants had excellent, intermediate, and poor knowledge levels, respectively. Knowledge levels were significantly different by nationality and age (P=0.027 and 0.008, respectively). The majority of participants (98.4%) reported excellent knowledge of prevention practices, with no statistically significant differences among groups (P>0.005). Older age groups reported higher knowledge of home quarantine measures (86.6% and 86.4% of the 51-60 and older than 60 age groups, respectively, P=0.001). Approximately 50% of Saudis reported excellent knowledge of the restrictions imposed by the Saudi government to control the spread of COVID-19, while approximately 45% of non-Saudis had an excellent level of knowledge (P= 0.009). Conclusion and recommendations : High levels of knowledge about the virus, including prevention practices, are essential. The provision of COVID-19 facts and knowledge tools should be focused on younger generations to enhance compliance with the governmental restrictions required to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Author(s): Saloojee, Dr. Yussuf; Chaouki, Dr. Noureddine; World Health Organization, Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean | Abstract: IntroductionPolitical, economic, social, cultural, environmental and other factors can all favour health or be harmful to ‘good health’. The aim of health advocates is to modify these factors to promote health. Religion too provides opportunities to improve health. It can offer motivation, encouragement and support for healthy lifestyles and behavioural choices.The tobacco industry views religionbased tobacco control activities as a real threat. As far back as 1987, the industry had recognized the need “to develop a system by which Philip Morris can measure trends on the issue of Smoking and Islam”. Their plan was to identify “Islamic religious leaders who oppose interpretations of the Qur’an which would ban the use of tobacco and encourage support for these leaders.”In 2002, the Ministry of Health of Saudi Arabia adopted a new and radical policy approach to strengthening tobacco control through religion. It launched an initiative to make the two holiest cities in Islam, Mecca and Medina, not just smoke-free but literally tobacco-free. The rationale and experiences of the Saudi government in regulating tobacco use in Mecca and Medina are examined in this report.

A study conducted by (Najimudeen, M. et al, 2018), reveal that, the reduction of maternal mortality rates in the community is envisaged through greater patient acceptance of medical advice, family spacing and proficient obstetric services. The main objective of the current study is to examine the trends of maternal mortality rate per 10,000 live births during a 10-years period (2005 – 2014), and to assess the reporting of maternal mortality trends at Tabuk region hospitals, in Saudi Arabia. Methods: The descriptive approach was used to collect data needed, using two questionnaire methods, RAMOS questionnaire with sample size (34) cases of maternal mortality. Descriptive and inferential statistics techniques used for data analysis by using (SPSS) version 20. Findings: The study concluded that the majority of deaths among reproductive women have happened for normal reasons, the study showed that around 88.0% of maternal deaths at the age category (25-44) years, and the MMR during the period (2005-to 2014) is reaching 12.2% for (106,326) of live birth. The results reveal that, there is a statistically significant positive association between maternal death registration reports and healthcare workers' knowledge in most hospitals. Conclusion: The study concluded that there is underreporting of maternal mortality index. The study recommended that it is necessary to improve the maternal mortality registration via supporting registration systems and biostatistics and use of customized calculators creating a system for maternal mortality registration to report about maternal mortality deaths and developing a committee to monitor and follow maternal mortality registration.

Background: Due to the daily increase of COVID-19 cases and the daily changes in the numbers of confirmed cases, society members are obligated to know about COVID-19 to help health sectors in controlling the situation, avoid high mortality, and prevent further complications outbreaks.
Aim: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice toward the prevention of COVID-19 outbreak among the public in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the general population of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from May to June 2020. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed among the public using online platforms. The questionnaire included socio-demographic data and a set of questions that assessed knowledge, attitude, and practices toward COVID-19 prevention. Data were tabulated and coded in MS Excel, and statistical analyses were performed using statistical package for social sciences version 26.
Results: A total of 447 respondents were recruited. Findings of this study showed that there was good knowledge (74.7%), positive attitude (87%), and good practices (72.3%) among participants toward COVID-19 prevention. In addition, the statistical test revealed that the younger age group (18-24 years) had better knowledge (p < 0.001), while males (p < 0.001) and those who underwent swab test (p = 0.006) demonstrated better practices toward COVID-19 prevention. In contrast, participants who had been diagnosed with COVID-19 infection exhibited significantly lower attitudes (p = 0.044).
Conclusion: There was adequate level of knowledge, attitude, and practices among the general population regarding COVID-19 prevention. Better knowledge toward the prevention of COVID-19 can be seen better among young adults, while males demonstrate better practices and those who had swab tests. Nonetheless, participants being infected by the virus seems to have less attitude toward COVID-19 prevention.

Annually, in the month of Dhul hijjah, over 2 million Muslims travel to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj. Hajj is the biggest mass gathering globally, which creates a significant influence on Hajjes' health. The Omani medical mission is the official delegation from the Omani government to Saudi Arabia to serve the Omani hajjees regarding their health issues. This study investigates the referral rate and pattern of diseases among hajjees referred by the Omani medical mission during Hajj 1440 H. We conducted a cross-sectional study at the Omani Medical missions in Makkah, Madinah, Mina, and Arafat. Data was collected via a predesigned form. All Omani pilgrims presenting to the mission who were referred to local hospitals were included The total number of cases was 5000, of which 106 (2.1%) were referred to local hospitals (21.2 per 1000 hajjees). The most common causes of referral were cardiovascular diseases (23.6%), followed by gastrointestinal disease (17.9%) and trauma (16.9%). Males comprised 60.1%. Their mean age was 47.3 years (SD ±11.27), with the highest referrals in the 51-60 years age group (30%). Over half (55.7%) had co-morbidities. Patients' mean time to reach the clinic was 8.87 min (SD ±6.41), with 65% arriving in 5 min or less. The mean time needed to reach the hospital by ambulance was 11.39 min (SD ±6.6), with 36% arriving within 5 min. Of the referrals, 42% were admitted into hospital. Hospitalization was significantly higher among patients with chest pain (P-value < 0.0057), diabetics (P-value < 0.0001), and patients with Heart Disease (P-value = 0.013). The most common causes for referral of Hajjees from the Omani Medical Mission were cardiovascular diseases, gastrointestinal disease, and trauma. This information should assist the Omani government in planning their medical services in hajj season in future years.

Recently, Saudi Arabia has extensively reformed its tobacco control policies and extended its smoking cessation services. A public outrage on social media among smokers was witnessed, especially after the implementation of plain cigarette packaging, which might have discredited the significant efforts of tobacco treatment services and tobacco control policies. However, it is not known how the credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body among Saudi smokers might affect their smoking behavior.Saudi tobacco smokers (n=511) were recruited using a convenience sampling technique. A cross-sectional survey was conducted comprising questions related to the credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body (modified Food and Drug Administration Tobacco Credibility Scale), quit attempts, use of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), and motivation to change smoking behavior in the future. Logistic and linear regression models were used for the analysis.The public interest subscale of the credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body, was positively associated with confidence in changing smoking behavior (β=0.204; 95% CI: 0.078-0.713; t=2.449, p=0.015) and readiness to change smoking behavior (β=0.237; 95% CI: 0.127-0.727; t=2.802, p=0.005). Moreover, the subscale of expertise was positively associated with confidence in changing smoking behavior (β=0.190; 95% CI: 0.006-0.697; t=1.999, p=0.046) and readiness to change smoking behavior (β=0.225; 95% CI: 0.063-0.710; t=2.352, p=0.019). However, public interest in the credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body was negatively associated with NRT use among smokers who tried to quit (adjusted odds ratio, AOR=0.691; 95% CI: 0.526-0.909). The credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body, however, was not associated with the last month's or ever quit attempts.The credibility of the tobacco control regulatory body was positively associated with motivation to change smoking behavior but negatively associated with NRT use. Optimizing communication tools with the public is a potential avenue for improving smoking treatment and prevention in Saudi Arabia.

Bronchial asthma is a major public health problem. The Saudi Initiative for Asthma (2012) reported that the prevalence of asthma in Saudi adults is not well known, but the overall prevalence in Saudi children ranged between 8 to 25%. The current study aimed to assess prevalence, identify triggers and risks and evaluate degree of control among Saudi children. A cross sectional study was conducted among secondary school students in the Al Majaridah governorate, Aseer region, Saudi Arabia using a structured questionnaire.. Responses were received from 792 students of both genders. Asthma prevalence was found to be 9.7%. Many asthmatic students report smoking and contact with animals as major triggers of asthma symptoms and more than two thirds of students had poor asthma control. In conclusion, most asthmatic students are not controlled and further studies of current health education available for students and families are required to explore why this is the case. Objectives: The current study aimed to estimate the prevalence, to identify triggers and risk factors of asthma and to assess the degree of control among Saudi children in the Al Majaridah governorate. Aseer region, Saudi Arabia. Methodology: This cross sectional study was conducted using a structured questionnaire which was distributed to all secondary school students in the Al Majaridah governorate during 2021. The questionnaire consisted of many parts; socio-demographics, risk factors, triggers of asthma and asthma control test questions. Data entry and analysis were made using SPSS. Results: Out of a total 1490 secondary school students, 792 students participated in this study giving a response rate of 53%. The mean age of the participants was 17 years and the majority of them were male (62.9%). The prevalence of bronchial asthma was 9.7%. Risk factors of asthma at home were animals or birds (7%), cockroaches (14%), heavy exercise (32%) and smoking (8%). More than two thirds of participants had poorly controlled asthma . Conclusion: The prevalence of bronchial asthma among students in the Al Majaridah governorate was similar to that in previous national studies. Most asthmatic students have poor control of their condition and intensive health education of students and their families is needed. Further studies are suggested to explore the reasons behind poor control of asthma among asthmatic students. Key words: Bronchial asthma, Aseer, Risk factors, Control

BACKGROUND The principles and methods of biostatistics have gained importance in various fields including dentistry and medicine. The health researchers must have adequate knowledge and understanding of biostatistics to overcome the associated dilemmas in concluding the statistical data. The present study was planned to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and perception of biostatistics among health researchers in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. METHODS The present cross-sectional study was questionnaire based and was conducted among 251 health researchers in Saudi Arabia. A convenience method of sampling was followed during the 2 months study period from 15. 08. 2020 to 15. 10. 2020. A pre-validated questionnaire was used that consisted of questions related to the knowledge, attitude and perception of biostatistics. A chi-square test was used to find the significance of study parameters and the level of significance chosen was 5 %. RESULTS Gender, nationality, or qualification of participants did not show any statistically significant differences with regards to their knowledge, attitude, or perception about biostatistics. The years of experience of the faculty showed statistically significant differences in their ability to interpret the results using statistical methods [P = 0.002], ability to choose a particular test to answer research question [P = 0.024], ability to design their projects [P = 0.02], and forming opinions / making decisions in health care using statistical information [P = 0.001]. Nursing and dental faculty were able to design their research projects significantly better when compared to other groups. Faculty of Pharmacy, nursing, and dentistry more frequently used statistical information to form opinions or make decisions in health care when compared to those from the Medical program. CONCLUSIONS The study showed a medium level of knowledge as well as awareness about the importance of statistics in research and indicated a great motivation for further training with an emphasis on teaching and learning biostatistics during undergraduate / postgraduate education. KEY WORDS Biostatistics, Interpret Results, Health Researchers

In treating chronic illnesses, such as sickle cell disease (SCD), outpatient care is essential; poor adherence in attending clinic appointments can lead to serious outcomes. SCD is highly prevalent in Saudi Arabia, and patients with SCD are advised to follow up with their treating physician in order to control this disease manifestation and to better forecast its complications. Studies evaluating missed appointments among patients with SCD are rare. Therefore, the current study aimed to use the health belief model's modifying factors in order to evaluate the variables associated with poor adherence in attending appointments. A total of 381 participants with SCD from various regions in the Jazan Province, southwestern Saudi Arabia, were included. The survey instrument included socioeconomic determinants, factors associated with poor adherence in attending outpatient appointments, and solutions under the conceptual framework of the health belief model. A descriptive analysis was conducted and the factors that impacted adherence in attending the appointments were evaluated. In the current sample, respondents with SCD from 21 to 30 years represented 41%, which was followed by participants who were 11 to 20 years at 21.5%. In addition, about 60% of the participants were women. Further, approximately 62% of the patients admitted were missing one or more outpatient appointments in the previous year, which was significantly related to various factors, such as socioeconomic characteristics and patient residence. Forgetting the appointment was the main reason for skipping outpatient appointments for patients with SCD; as such, reminders appear to be a good solution for most participants. Our findings indicated that modifying components of the health belief model, including age, level of education, income, patients' residence, and lacking cues to action (such as reminders) are important in explaining the reason for poor adherence in attending appointments. Thus, efforts are needed to address these factors and to ensure that SCD patients uphold their appointments. Future studies should examine the clinical, psychological, and epidemiological aspects that are linked with missed consultations.

Private sector partnerships through community pharmacies are essential for effective healthcare integration to achieve the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals. This partnership can provide significant clinical outcomes and reduce health system expenditures by delivering services focused on patient-centred care, such as public health screening and medication therapy management.To assess the understanding of the proposed strategic and health system reform in Saudi Arabia by exploring community pharmacists' perspectives towards the capacity and readiness of community pharmacies to use automated pharmacy systems, provide extended community pharmacy services, and identify perceived barriers.This multicentre, cross-sectional, web-based survey was conducted in Saudi Arabia (October-December 2021). Graphical and numerical statistics were used to describe key dimensions by the background and characteristics of the respondents, and multiple ordinal logistic regression analyses were sought to assess their associations.Of the 403 consenting and participating community pharmacists, most were male (94%), belonged to chain pharmacies (77%), and worked >48 h per week (72%). Automated pharmacy systems, such as electronic prescriptions, were never utilised (50%), and health screening services, such as blood glucose (76%) and blood pressure measurement (74%), were never provided. Services for medication therapy management were somewhat limited. Age groups ≤40 years, chain pharmacies, >10 years of experience and ≥ 3 pharmacists in place with <100 daily medication prescriptions and Jazan province were significantly more likely to provide all medication therapy management services than others. Operational factors were the barriers most significantly associated with the independent variables.The results showed that most services and automated pharmacy systems remained limited and well-needed. When attempting to implement these services to drive change, community pharmacies face numerous challenges, and urgent efforts by private and government sectors are essential to improve pharmaceutical care in community pharmacy settings.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to understand if effective road safety education is being provided to students by embedding educational programmes within a curriculum framework. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative methodology was used to gain in-depth understanding of the health-promoting initiatives of Saudi Arabian universities and colleges in preventing risky driving behaviour among students. Interviews were used to collect data from 11 faculty members. Findings Results suggest that educational programmes for changing the risky driving behaviour of students are still in their infancy. The findings raise questions about road safety and driving. While initiatives are being taken for promoting awareness within educational institutions on road safety, there is still a lack of awareness of traffic regulations and signs. Originality/value Since there is a paucity of research on health promotions specifically related to aberrant and risky driving in the Kingdom, this paper adds value to educators and policy-makers.

Consequently, there is a need to increase the standards of medical education in the field of Rare Diseases and to revise the undergraduate and postgraduate training programs. However, while studies on medical education in the field of RDs has been conducted in various countries across the both Americas, Asia or the European Union, still little is known about the awareness of RDs among healthcare professionals in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Thus, we conducted a survey among 200 medical students and 200 nursing students from the college of applied medical sciences at aseer region. The questionnaire assessed their knowledge about the number, examples, aetiology and estimated frequency of RDs. It also evaluated respondents’ self-assessment of competence in RDs. Although the majority of respondents agreed that RDs constitute a serious public health issue both medical students and nursing students showed insufficient knowledge on the aetiology, epidemiology and prevalence of RDs, and many had problems with separating RDs from more common disorders. Moreover, they also lacked knowledge about and the central register of RD patients and reimbursement of orphan drugs in Saudi Arabia. Finally, while almost half respondents declared having had classes about RDs during their studies most perceived their knowledge about RDs as insufficient or poor and felt unprepared for caring for RD patients. Additionally, although majority of respondents in both groups believed that all physicians, regardless of their specialization, should possess knowledge on RDs many respondents did not look for such information at all. While genetics constitutes an important part of medical education, one can observe a lack of knowledge about rare diseases (RD) among medical students and healthcare professionals. Meanwhile, many RD are life threatening and chronically debilitating conditions that significantly reduce patients' quality of life. Most RD patients experience various psychiatric symptoms, behavioural changes and mental retardation. Consequently, physicians should be educated on RD. Thus, the aim of this paper is to assess the knowledge about RD among future medical professionals.

Background and Objectives: Skin problems are a widespread issue that affects people in both developing and wealthy countries, posing significant public health concerns. These disorders can profoundly impact individuals' social and psychological well-being. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of the most common skin diseases in the Jazan region of southwestern Saudi Arabia and investigate their impact on patients' quality of life and psychological and social well-being. Materials and Methods: An observational cross-sectional survey conducted among a random sample of 940 adults ≥ 18 years in the Jazan region, Saudi Arabia. Four standardized questionnaires were used for data collection: Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), a five-dimension questionnaire (EQ-5D), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Loneliness Scale (ULS-8). Results: The most prevalent skin conditions involved hair loss, which was reported by (61.1%) of the study population. These disorders significantly affected a higher percentage of females (71.9%) compared to males (46.3%) (p < 0.001). Melasma was more common in females (14.1%) than in males (4.3%) p < 0.001. The lowest prevalence was found for urticaria. Those with acne and hair loss reported higher mean scores on the PHQ-9 Scale than the group without these conditions (p < 0.05 for all). Patients with alopecia, acne, and melasma also reported significantly lower self-esteem scores compared to those without these skin conditions (p < 0.05 for all). Regarding the activity domain of QoL, participants with skin conditions reported no problems doing usual activities, compared to those without skin problems (p < 0.001). Conclusions: In conclusion, research revealed that the most prevalent skin condition was hair loss. Further, an association was found between skin diseases and the mental and social well-being of those affected, resulting in a negative impact on their quality of life. The results call for improving the condition of patients with skin diseases, improving their quality of life, and providing appropriate interventions.

Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health threat, recently declared a crisis by the WHO, and recognized as one of the top 10 threats to global health. One of the strategies to curb AMR is interventional education to raise awareness. Therefore, this study evaluated the impact of interventional education on awareness of antimicrobial resistance among high school students in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Methods This was a quasi-experimental study that included 120 high school students as a control group and 120 students as the experimental group. It used a questionnaire pre- and post-educational intervention, which was a lecture by trained healthcare workers. Pearson's Chi-square test and ANOVA were used to assess the effects of the intervention, and the p-value was set at <0.05 for significance. Results Over half (53.4%) of the controls reported no prior exposure to an antibiotic awareness campaign, compared to 46.6% in the intervention (experimental) group. Half of the participants in both groups were without a family relative who works in the healthcare sector. Almost half (51.2%) in the intervention group used antibiotics compared to 48.2% of controls; 53.3% in the control group reported self-medication compared to 46.7% in the intervention group. We found a statistically significant increase in the overall mean scores regarding knowledge of antibiotics resistance before and after the education intervention in the control group (p<0.001) and intervention group (p<0.001). Post-intervention, there was a significant reduction in the mean scores of misbeliefs about antibiotic use (p<0.001). We found an improvement in the perception scores toward AMR and antibiotic resistance post-educational intervention (P=0.008), and the perception difference remained significant between the two study groups (p=0.002). Conclusion These findings showed that interventional education effectively raises awareness, knowledge, and perceptions toward AMR. Therefore, public health, medical, and scientific professionals in Saudi Arabia are urged to emphasize education to fight AMR, in addition to other strategies.

Purpose: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern worldwide and is considered one of the leading causes of death globally. Presently, TB control remains a global struggle, despite a decline in the percentage of cases. In Saudi Arabia, the annual incidence rate of TB is 12 per 100,000 individuals. Although TB incidence has decreased in the country, it has not been fully controlled. Awareness and public education are important in preventing the spread of TB. The objective of this study is to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding TB and its treatment within the community, while also examining potential gender differences in KAP. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out online among the general population in the Qassim Region of Saudi Arabia, and statistical analysis was performed using multivariate logistic regression, chi-square, and t-tests. Results: A total of 450 participants were included in the study; 71.6% of respondents were males, and most of the respondents (71.3%) had a high level of education. Slightly more than half (55.3%) of the respondents have a good level of knowledge. The total percentage of people who have positive attitudes is 46.7%. Within gender, analysis shows that about 48.4% of males and 42.2% of females have a positive attitude. The total percentage of people who have a good practice is 82.4%. Within gender, analysis shows that females (91.4%) have a good practice compared to males (78.9%). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that having a family history of TB was independently associated with a higher level of knowledge, whereas younger age was associated with a positive attitude. On the other hand, gender and education were independently associated with the practice. Conclusion: The knowledge and attitude towards TB among the targeted population were generally moderate, with slightly higher levels of knowledge observed among females. Furthermore, a positive trend of good practices was observed within the study population, particularly among females

The objectives are to estimate the exposure to secondhand smoke, to assess attitudes toward smoking, and to evaluate smoking cessation habits among a sample of female Saudi students. This cross-sectional study was conducted by the distribution of a self-administered structured questionnaire given to 1,100 students at King Abdulaziz University. The response rate was 95.5%. Eleven percent of respondents were current smokers. Exposure to second-hand smoke was reported by 53% of respondents, with 36.2% reporting exposure at home or in public places and 19% at both. Exposure to second-hand smoke was significantly higher among smokers and students who had parents or friends who smoked. The majority of students supported banning smoking in public places and in the university, with non-smokers showing more positive attitudes toward ban. Among smokers, 19% reported a desire to quit smoking, and 13% have attempted to quit. Two-thirds of smokers believed it would be easy to quit smoking anytime. Exposure to secondhand smoke is a public health problem in Saudi Arabia; a problem that needs to be addressed. More research is necessary to investigate this health hazard, and smoking prevention awareness, intervention and cessation programs are essential to promote a smoke-free environment.

AIM: The Hajj pilgrimage, the world&#39;s largest annual mass gathering, is held in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Health (MoH) issues entry visa requirements and recommendations for Hajj pilgrims visiting the country. Vaccinations, health checks, and specific immunizations are all recommended either at or before entering KSA.
 
 We assessed Hajj pilgrims&rsquo; knowledge, attitude and practices regarding preventive, curative, hygienic and health promoting measures. 
 
 SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We administered a questionnaire to a cross-section of Hajj pilgrims(2018 G)traveling through Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Al-Madina, KSA. Variables collected included demographics, Hajj health preparations, and knowledge and attitudes towards travel-related health behaviors. 
 
 RESULTS: Of 101 respondents, 20% were Saudi and 64%were male. Regarding travel profile, 75% were attending hajj for the first time. About half (52%) stayed in KSA for more than 2 weeks.&nbsp; Knowledge regarding travel heath of respondents was high: 82% scored as excellent and 11% scored as good. Positive attitude toward travel medicine was reported by 60% of participants; 56% of them sought pre-travel advice.&nbsp; Regarding health protection behaviors, 79%reported using protective measures against respiratory infections, 70%for insects, 95%for food and waterborne Diseases, 99%against heat-related conditions and 100%for injuries.
 
 CONCLUSION: Despite the health criteria for obtaining Hajj visas and the documented health risks associated with attending Hajj, we discovered that less than half of participants received pre-travel advice. To ensure that Hajj pilgrims have a secure and healthy experience in the Kingdom, we recognized the need for continued education and promotion of health preventive measures. This research could be used to help countries establish Hajj health systems, which would be immensely helpful and would go a long way toward reducing Hajj mortality and morbidity, as well as associated burdens.

Purpose: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is widespread globally and a serious public health threat. Understanding the distribution of HBV is important to policymakers to evaluate public health surveillance and develop prevention and control policies. Therefore, we studied the trends of reported HBV infection in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) during the 5-year period from 2009 – 2013. Methods: Laboratory-confirmed HBV cases reported to the KSA Ministry of Health (MoH) National Hepatitis Program (NHP) were analyzed by year, gender, nationality, region, and age group. Results: There were 23,236 cases of HBV infection reported to the KSA MoH during the 5-year period 2009 – 2013. In 2009, the incidence rate (IR) of HBV infection was 19.3 (95% CI = 18.8, 19.9) per 100,000 population. The IR significantly decreased to 14.7 (95% CI = 14.2, 15.1) in 2013. The IR was consistently greater among males than females (in 2013, 16.7 versus 12.2). Over the study period, Saudi citizens had a 2- to 3fold greater IR than non-Saudis (in 2013, 18.7 versus 5.9). There was a large variation among HBV infection IRs across regions, with Tabouk having the highest. The greatest

Following the declaration of COVID-19 as a global disaster, one of the affected events is the Hajj. Ideally, the desire by the faithful to observe their religious practices calls for collaborative efforts. Ideally, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia can adopt smart technology in facilitating the fight against the spread of the disease. After declaring Covid 19 as a global pandemic, new challenges for the healthcare sector in Hajj have emerged. Hajj represents a major challenge to the Saudi Ministry of Health (MOH) in addressing early detection of infection and controlling it at large gatherings of people. As seen in countries such as Australia, Bahrain, and China, smart technology enhances contact tracing, isolation, and even monitoring. Through the proposed Smart Hajj application, pilgrimage will be facilitated in a manner allowing the collection of data on the people. Ideally, the application will be applied from the start of the trip to the end. As such, the application allows the generation a solution from different data resources for the prevention of COVID-19 thus enhancing the pilgrimage experience.

Abstract This research paper aims to identify the technological and non-technological factors influencing user acceptance of the CDSS in a group of healthcare facilities in Saudi Arabia. The research study uses the quantitative approach to evaluate the currently implemented CDSS as a part of Hospital Information System BESTCare 2.0 in the Saudi Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs. For data collection, a survey questionnaire is conducted at all Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs hospitals. Then, the collected survey data is analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). This analysis includes measurement instrument reliability, discriminant validity, convergent validity, and hypothesis testing. Moreover, a CDSS usage data sample is extracted from the data warehouse to be analyzed as an additional data source. The results of the hypotheses testing show that usability, availability, and medical history accessibility are the critical factors influencing user acceptance of CDSS. This study provides prudence about healthcare facilities and their higher management to adopt CDSS.

Background: Stigma associated with mental illness prevents many mentally ill people and their caregivers from seeking help and receiving adequate treatment. People may refuse to seek help from mental health professionals for fear of social reaction and may try to hide the illness, which lead to inaccurate statistical presentation of the real problem in addition to poor health outcomes. Aim: The aim of the current research study was to investigate the attitude of general Saudi population toward mental illness and persons with mental illnesses and explore general Saudi population’ attitude toward mental health services available in Saudi Arabia. Methods: A descriptive corelation cross sectional research design was utilized on a sample of 3464 saudi adults recruited from different public areas and voluntarily accept to participate in the study. Data was collected using a survey questionnair consisted of sociodemographic data sheet, questions concerning personal experience with persons with mental illnesses, Attitudes towards mental Illness Scale (Shokeer, 2002) and attitude towards the mental health services questionnair. An explanation about the purpose and the nature of the study was offered for each individual potential participant. Subjects were assured about the confidentiality of the collected data and that it will be only used by the researcher for the purpose of the current study. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0. Results: More than one third of the participants (36.9%) had a family member diagnosed with mental illness while around two thirds (62.2%) knew any person diagnosed with mental illness other than a family member. 36.5 percent of the participants agreed that they can speak with any person with mental illness and can go in a picnic with people with mental illnesses, 43.5% don’t feel afraid when dealing with persons with mental illnesses, 41.4% don’t refuse to sit with a person with mental illness. More than three quarters of the participants agreed that Saudi government must increase governmental fund spent on mental health hospitals as well as community mental health services, on the other hand only 18.7% agreed that Saudi community has enough mental health services. age of the participants, level of education, having a family member diagnosed with mental illness and knowing any person diagnosed with mental illness were significantly correlated with the attitude towards mental illness and persons with mental illnesses scale score (p = 0.000). Conclusion: Despite the limited empirical evidence the present study infers that one third of the participants have an indecisive attitude toward mental illness and persons with mental illness. This makes it clear that there is still a way to go in accomplishing a positive attitude toward mental illness. Keywords: Public, attitude, mental illness, mental health services, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Empirical evidence has shown that health status and life satisfaction are strongly correlated and connected to physical activity. However, no previous research has examined the association of physical activity (PA) with self-rated health (SRH) and life satisfaction (LS) among adolescents in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, a cross-sectional study was conducted among a sample of male adolescents (n=453; age 15-20 years) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The objective was to investigate the association between LS and SRH with PA in adolescents, taking into account socio-demographic variables. A pre-tested validated questionnaire was used to collect data using a stratified sampling technique. An estimated 354 (78.5%) adolescents reported being healthy, and 98 (21.7%) were satisfied with their lives. The logistic regression analysis revealed that adolescents' SRH was independently associated with their sense of LS (AOR=2.5, 95%CI: 1.5-4.3, P≤0.001). Also, the odds of reporting being healthy increased 2.5 times for being moderate active (95%CI: 1.5-4.3, P<0.001) and 3.4 times for being highly active (95%CI: 2.0-5.8, P≤0.001), as compared to non-active adolescents. Moreover, adjusted logistic regression showed that adolescents' LS was independently associated with high level of their father's education (AOR=1.8, 95%CI: 1.2-3.0, P=0.023); studying in private schools (AOR=1.9, 95%CI: 1.3-2.9, P≤0.011) and being highly active (AOR=3.0, 95%CI: 1.6-4.2, P=0.007). SRH and LS are determinants of each other, and both variables were independently associated with PA levels. Programs that increase PA may promote life satisfaction and health status in the adolescent population. Therefore, it is important to promote physical activity amongst them, create a sport-friendly environment, and engage adolescents in physical activity during their free time by broadening access to more sports classes and other forms of assistance. This is also an important method of enhancing adolescents' life satisfaction and better health.

Rabies is an acute encephalitis caused by a virus from the genus Lyssavirus (family Rhabdoviridae). It has the highest case fatality rate when compared with other infectious diseases, with over 99% of human deaths occurring in Asia and Africa. Animal-related injuries in Saudi Arabia remain a public health problem, with feral dogs accounting for the majority of bites to humans. Eradication of rabies is not achieved yet, and efforts from different parties including the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs, the Saudi Wildlife Commission, and the Preventive Medicine Department should be coordinated. Training courses for emergency physicians and campaigns to educate the general population about animal-related injuries should be conducted. In this article, we report a case of feral dog bite causing paralytic rabies in a Saudi patient. Our case is unique since the cause of death in this patient was lack of family assistance and proper follow-up of the patient to ensure completing the vaccination schedule rather than lack of treatment and resources. The involvement of infection control department should be from the 1st day of dog bite.

Abstract: The data surrounding the effect of cell phones' electromagnetic radiation on human health, particularly on the auditory and vestibular systems, are controversial. This issue is of particular relevance since it may affect billions of people worldwide. The study aimed to highlight the impact of medical education on the awareness of cell phone use and its health hazards in students at King Abdulaziz University's Faculty of Medicine in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In this study, a mixed research design was adopted as a complementary approach. Closed ended questionnaires were distributed to 400 medical students to determine their knowledge and practices regarding the use of cell phones and their possible health risks. The questionnaires were followed by discussions with four focus groups to further analyze the studied area. Both the questionnaires and focus groups covered many points, including the most common health hazards associated with the use of cell phones. The results showed that most of the students were aware of the potential risks arising from the use of cell phones, and at least half of them reported experiencing some of the negative effects.

Malaria is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality with a major public health importance. Nearly half of the world population is at risk of malaria. In Saudi Arabia, a series of malaria outbreaks occurred in Jizan area and vigorous action was taken by the Saudi Ministry of Health to control malaria in this area. This study aimed at investigating the incidence of malaria Jizan area in 2014 and the effect of malarial infection on several hematological indices. Data were retrospectively collected for the year 2014 from Samtah General Hospital for all malaria positive cases. A total of 44 patients results were obtained for those who were diagnosed as positive for malaria together with their hematological indices and demographic data. A total of 3674 cases were suspected of malaria and only 44 cases were positive. The highest peaks of malaria cases were seen during the months of March and December. A statistically significant reduction in the WBC and Platelet count was observed in malaria positive cases. This study suggests that the malaria control in Jizan area be continued. Providing highly qualified lab personnel and microscopist in the area is very beneficial in order to achieve the malaria eradication goal.

Background Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten and related prolamines, which can cause a variety of symptoms and complications if left untreated. Despite being a common lifelong disorder, it often goes undiagnosed for a long time, leading to negative impacts on patients' health and quality of life. The diagnosis of celiac disease requires the presence of celiac-specific autoantibodies and distinctive histological changes in the small intestinal mucosa. Lack of disease knowledge among healthcare professionals and patients' adherence to gluten-free diets may contribute to diagnostic delays. Objectives This study aims to assess the reasons for celiac disease underdiagnosis and identify the functional deficiencies of healthcare professionals in the diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease, particularly in the Saudi population. Materials and methods A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study was conducted among physicians in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia during the year 2023, between May and July. Participants were asked to complete an online self-administered questionnaire that included questions about their demographic characteristics, professional experience, and knowledge and attitudes toward celiac disease. The study recruited gastroenterologists, gastroenterology fellows, internal and family medicine specialists, residents, and general practitioners working in private or public health centers in various cities of the Eastern Province. Results The data were collected from 180 physicians who fulfilled the inclusion criteria of the study, with most participants aged under 30 years and predominantly male. Family medicine and general practitioners were the most represented specialties. While 49.4% of physicians knew that adult celiac disease was rare, only 19.4% frequently recommended celiac disease serology to their patients. In terms of risk, most physicians knew that adult celiac disease was a moderately severe and disabling disease, but only 24.4% thought that the cancer risk in patients with celiac disease was moderate. About 75.6% of physicians had an overall poor knowledge level regarding celiac disease, with gastroenterologists and internal medicine specialists demonstrating better knowledge compared to other specialties (P = 0.001). Conclusion The study found that a majority of physicians in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia had poor knowledge about celiac disease. This lack of knowledge could have implications for patient care, as it could lead to delays in diagnosis, inadequate treatment, and increased risk of complications.

Hearing impairment has frequently been identified as a serious health issue among newborns. If it is not identified and addressed, it can have an adverse effect on language development, emotional health, quality of life, academic performance, and financial independence at various stages of life. To diagnose hearing impairment in newborns, universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) is now accepted as a standard medical procedure. However, the low follow-up rates have been reported in countries like Saudi Arabia. Hence, this study seeks to explain parental health-seeking behavior and factors related to non-compliance with follow-up using the health belief model (HBM). Keywords: hearing impairment, newborns, health-seeking behavior, health belief model. DOI: https://doi.org/10.55463/hkjss.issn.1021-3619.61.54

Osteoporosis is a global public health problem. It is estimated that about 9.0 million osteoporotic fractures occurred in the year 2000 and that many were due to osteoporosis. Awareness about osteoporosis and factors contributing to it is of great benefit and is a major public health challenge. The objective of this study is the level of awareness about osteoporosis among university students in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Questionnaires were distributed among university students to assess their osteoporosis knowledge level. One hundred questionnaires were collected and the osteoporosis knowledge level was assessed. SPSS was used to analyze the data. Over three-quarters of participating students (77%) have a high level of knowledge about osteoporosis. There is a statistically significant positive correlation between the level of osteoporosis knowledge and the length of study at KAU and the marital status (p=<0.01). Furthermore, there is a statistically significant negative correlation between the level of osteoporosis knowledge and economic status. Raising knowledge about osteoporosis is an important and effective tool in preventing osteoporosis.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a global public health concern, specifically in countries which have high prevalence of HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, unhygienic conditions, etc. Some evidence has been presented that diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for TB. On the other hand, among those who have DM, TB infection enhances glucose intolerance and worsens glycemic control. The combination of TB and DM, due to immuno-compromised status of DM, can delay the healing process of TB. The focus of this paper is the World Health Organization directly observed treatment, short course (DOTS) program implemented in Gazan province, Saudi Arabia, to treat TB. The data included some patients with both TB and DM. The data has been analyzed to assess how effective the DOTS program was in managing TB. It was found that DM was not a significant factor in the outcome of TB treatment. We used the same data and observed that the non-significance of DM is due to heterogeneity of patient population, Saudis and Non-Saudis. The prevalence of DM was very high among Saudis. This is understandable in view of different lifestyles. Non-Saudis are predominantly Yemenis. For Saudis, DM was indeed found to play a role in the treatment outcome of TB, after an application of a classification tree methodology on the data. This is the main focus of the paper.

A low level of physical activity and sport participation among adolescents has been particularly evident over the past decade, and youth inactivity has become a significant public health issue that has attracted the attention of many researchers around the world (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2015; World Health Organization, 2011).
The purpose of this research project is to critically examine the major constraints and motivations in relation to physical activity and sport participation among male high school students who live in the city of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Using the hierarchical model of leisure constraints designed by Crawford, Jackson and Godbey (1991) and the motivational model developed by Frederick and Ryan (1993), this study explores the determinants of their physical activity and sport participation levels. Data were collected via a self-reported questionnaire completed by 909 male students aged 16–19 from Riyadh high schools in 2010–2011.

Background: Increases in tobacco taxes are widely considered as an effective strategy to reduce tobacco consumption and it is related health consequences. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the relationship between taxation and smoking consumption among Saudis. Methods: It is a cross-sectional research methodology. Arabic translated questionnaire were adapted from validated national tobacco use survey, which used by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Global Adult Tobacco survey (GATS) that helps in determining the effect of taxation on smoking consumption. Questions consist of 3 parts. First, smoking status before and after taxation by asking 9Do you smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?9 Second, purchasing behavior after the taxation by asking about the brands they buy before and after taxation. Finally, changes in smoking habits 9How have you changed your smoking habits since taxation?9 The questionnaires were randomly distributed in malls, cafes and restaurants in Saudi Arabia after IRB approval was obtained. Results: A total of 266 individuals were included in the study. All collected data were male with mean age (25 years ± 9). 27% (72) of them have high school education and 22% (58) were unemployed. There were 91% (243) of the smokers consume smoking daily. After taxation, 18% (48) of the participants decrease their smoking consumption that is slightly significant. However, the major impact were in the brand they were buying, there were 46% (123) of the smokers buy Marlboro as their usual brand before taxation, whereas after taxation, it decreased to 18% (48), most of the participants who were buying Marlboro as their usual brand changed to cheaper brand (Figure-1). Second, 9How have you changed your smoking habits since taxation9 this question shows how smokers changed their smoking habits after taxation, and the result shows 27.8% (74) of participants thought seriously about quitting and reduce their consumption . Finally, the result shows that there is 97% (258 of participants) did not seek any smoking cessation clinics or programs. This reflects lack of knowledge of the effectiveness of smoking cessation programs. Conclusions: The study concludes that increasing both taxation and price have potential benefit to decrease smoking consumption in Saudi Arabia. Most of them react to taxation in two ways: by reducing their consumption or by seeking cheaper brands. Thus, further taxation and pricing policies can be more effective.

(1) Background: Cancer screening tests discover cancer at early stages, even before symptoms appear. When abnormal tissues or a malignant mass is found early, treatment and cure rates are improved. In late stages, the cancer may have grown and metastasized. This can negatively affect cancer treatment and reduce the overall survival rate. Screening tests are performed when a person is asymptomatic. Public awareness about cancer screening is crucial for the success of cancer screening programs and for consequently decreasing the morbidity and mortality rate due to cancer. (2) Aim: Assess the knowledge and perception of the community regarding cancer screening in Saudi Arabia. (3) Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study targeting the general population of Saudi Arabia was conducted from January to June 2022. The data were collected using a structured validated electronic questionnaire. The study questionnaire covered participants' personal data, medical history, source of data, and participants' knowledge, attitude, and practice items. The questionnaire was used as a digital survey and was distributed electronically to the target population. (4) Results: A total of 1313 participants completed the study questionnaire. The participants' ages ranged from 18 to 67 years, with a mean age of 28.3 ± 11.4 years old. Overall, 60.4% of the study participants knew about cancer screening. Regarding the benefits of cancer screening, 91.8% of the participants reported knowing that the early detection of cancer helps treatment, and 81.1% knew that the early detection of cancer improves treatment outcomes. Moreover, 441 (33.6%) of the participants had good knowledge regarding cancer and cancer screening, while 872 (66.4%) had poor levels of knowledge. Furthermore, 106 (8.1%) of the participants underwent cancer screening. (5) Conclusions: The study results revealed that participants' awareness regarding cancer and cancer screening was low, especially for approaches to reduce cancer risk. Additionally, the study participants' practice regarding cancer screening was low. The health care authority should plan for population-based efficacious cancer screening programs. In addition, cancer screening information and the benefits of early detection can be disseminated through social media to target the desired populations.

Abstract Background There is an increasing number of individuals with dementia due to the rapid aging process worldwide. AD is a major public health problem and the most prevalent form of dementia. It affects mainly older people and causes a significant decline in cognitive abilities, thus affecting the quality of life and independence. Understanding AD is fundamental for early diagnosis and reducing caregiver burden. Aim and objective to assess the public awareness, knowledge, and attitude toward AD in Medina City, Saudi Arabia. Methods A cross-sectional study of a convenient sample from Madina city, Saudi Arabia collected via validated Arabic face-to-face interviews conducted in shopping malls in Al-Madina city, KSA from August 2022 to September 2022. This study included only Madina's residents, between the age of 20 and 65. Data collected via the interview included sociodemographic, knowledge, and attitude towards Alzheimer’s disease. Results The study included 391 participants with a mean age between 18–29 years. The majority of the participants were able to identify aging and AD as causes of memory loss (86.2% and 65.7%) respectively. The overall AD knowledge was measured out of 12 points given to correct responses to the marked questions in table 2. The mean knowledge level was 7 ± 2 out of 12 possible points. Simple linear regression models were performed for the following predictors: age group, gender, and educational level. Data showed that only age groups (B = -0.351, SE = 0.103 (95% CI: -0.553 to -0.149), p < 0.001, R2 = 0.029), predicted the total awareness level related to AD (Table 3). 72.4% of the participants believed that Alzheimer’s patients are not capable of making decisions. Furthermore, 83.4% believe that Alzheimer’s patients need continuous monitoring and 70.8% think they may cause a psychological or societal burden. Conclusion Knowing the signs and symptoms of AD can allow clinicians to early diagnoses, treatment, preventing complications and decreasing the burden on families. So, it's important to guarantee enough public awareness of AD and the importance of managing risk factors that can minimize the risk of AD.

Rabies is an acute encephalitis caused by a virus from the genus Lyssavirus (family Rhabdoviridae). It has the highest case fatality rate when compared with other infectious diseases, with over 99% of human deaths occurring in Asia and Africa. Animal-related injuries in Saudi Arabia remain a public health problem, with feral dogs accounting for the majority of bites to humans. Eradication of rabies is not achieved yet, and efforts from different parties including the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs, the Saudi Wildlife Commission, and the Preventive Medicine Department should be coordinated. Training courses for emergency physicians and campaigns to educate the general population about animal-related injuries should be conducted. In this article, we report a case of feral dog bite causing paralytic rabies in a Saudi patient. Our case is unique since the cause of death in this patient was lack of family assistance and proper follow-up of the patient to ensure completing the vaccination schedule rather than lack of treatment and resources. The involvement of infection control department should be from the 1st day of dog bite.

Three preventive measures which have been recommended by the
American Dental Association include that adults should thoroughly brush and floss
their teeth at least once a day and get regular oral health check-ups. The purpose of
this study is to assess the oral health knowledge and behaviour patterns among the
Saudi Arabian population. 500 subjects were asked to complete a questionnaire
which addressed many questions on oral health. All respondents were above 18 years
of age. Responses showed that 98.5% brushed their teeth regularly, 35.2% used
dental floss, and 69.8% visited the dentist. About 27.6% of all respondents used all
three preventive measures. Miswak was used by 49.2% of the respondents. The study
also showed that television was the most frequently reported source of education for
the public on dental hygiene (60.7%). Although 98.5% of respondents used a dental
brush daily, only 27.6% of the sample used a combination of the three recommended
preventive measures. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a government based effort
to reinforce knowledge and implementation on proper dental hygiene.

Abstract Background European Universities are increasingly running or participating in capacity building in higher education in non-EU countries. These projects are funded by EC, US National Institutes of Health (NIH), governments, universities or private sector. Capacity building provides a way to build global bridges between public health communities; it increases cultural understanding, develops resources in the neighboring countries and prevents public health problems spreading to Europe. For the collaborating countries it empowers communities and enhances equity and solidarity. To pool together the expertise and lessons learnt by the universities delivering this kind of education, a roundtable discussion at EUPHA offers a good forum. Aim To create a forum where public health academics, adult pedagogic experts, policymakers and practitioners gather to share experiences, interests and ideas for potential collaboration to facilitate the export of public health training across countries and cultures. Based on this, the round table will increase sharing knowledge and transparency of results of international capacity building interventions and will contribute to the transcultural fertilization of the interventions, with a special focus on solidarity in health. We will present specific ways of how to do knowhow transfer from EU countries to some other parts of the world (Northern Africa, Arabian Peninsula and the Caucasus region). Program An introduction to the roundtable is given by Professor of Public Health Arja R Aro (SDU, Denmark). She will describe recent developments and multiple lines of funding options for international capacity building projects. Professor Razvan Chereches (BBU, Romania) will talk on the lessons learned in an ongoing public health capacity building project among medical faculty staff funded by EC Erasmus+ program in Tunisia. Dr Diana Dulf will present the lessons learned in capacity building projects funded by NIH in Armenia and Georgia in the area of injury prevention. Arja R Aro will tell about the recent and ongoing knowledge transfer and education export projects among undergraduates and health professionals in Saudi Arabia funded by local universities. Pedagogical expert Anne Leena Ikonen will reflect on the pedagogic challenges in capacity building across cultures, using the Saudi Arabian context as an example. After that the panel will discuss the main lessons learnt and challenges encountered, and the audience is invited to ask questions, to share their experiences and interests. The roundtable will finish by discussing options to get organized as a network or interest group around international capacity building in public health, potentially under EUPHA. Key messages Pooling lessons learnt will help towards better and cost-effective planning of the future training. Network or interest group can offer a platform for collaboration and enhancement of European public health training and export.

Abstract BackgroundDesigning a health promotion campaign is never an easy task, especially during a pandemic of a highly infectious disease such as COVID-19. In Saudi Arabia, many attempts have been made to raise public awareness about COVID-19 infection and precautionary health measures. However, most of the health information delivered through the national dashboard and the COVID-19 awareness campaigns are generic and do not necessarily make the impact needed to be seen on individuals’ behavior. ObjectiveThe objective of this study is to build and validate a customized messaging campaign to promote precautionary health behavior in individuals during the COVID-19 pandemic. Customization is realized by utilizing a geospatial artificial intelligence technique called the space-time cube (STC) technique. MethodsThis research was conducted in two sequential phases. In phase 1, an initial library of 32 messages was developed and validated based on Fogg behavior model for behavior change. In phase 2, we applied STC as a geospatial artificial intelligence technique to create a local map for one city with three different profiles representing the city districts. The model was built using COVID-19 real clinical data. The messages created in phase 1 is to be customized for residents in each city profile separately. Resultsn phase 1, 32 messages were developed based on resources from the World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health in Saudi Arabia. The enumerated content validity of the messages was established through the utilization of the content validity index (CVI). Thirteen professional health care workers (n=13) evaluated the content of the message libraries in Arabic and English. Thirty-two messages were found to have acceptable content validity (I-CVI=0.87). In phase 2, the geospatial intelligence technique we applied showed three zones for the districts of Jeddah city: one for high infection, another for moderate infection, and the third for low infection. Combining the results from the first and second phases, a customized awareness campaign was shaped for the city of Jeddah. ConclusionsThis awareness campaign can be utilized by health authorities to raise individuals' awareness about the precautionary measures that should be taken based on the infection level of their district, and hence help in reducing the number of positive cases in the city of Jeddah.

Following an outbreak in Mecca Saudi Arabia in 2000, meningococcal strains expressing capsular group W (W) emerged as a major cause of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) worldwide. This essay presents a critical review of studies reporting IMD surveillance data spanning four decades and places in context the recent findings of WGS studies to the epidemiology of group W IMD. This report will be of use to Public Health experts in several countries currently facing a rise in number of W cc11 cases and persistence of sporadic group W cases.
The Saudi Arabian outbreak strain (Hajj clone) belonging to the ST-11 clonal complex (cc11) is similar to W cc11 causing occasional sporadic disease before 2000. Since 2000, W cc11 has caused large meningococcal disease epidemics in the African meningitis belt and endemic disease in South America, Europe and China. Traditional molecular epidemiologic typing suggested that a majority of current W cc11 burden represented global spread of the Hajj clone. However, recent whole genome sequencing (WGS) analyses revealed significant genetic heterogeneity among global W cc11 strains. While continued spread of Hajj-related strains occurs in the Middle East, the meningitis belt and South Africa have co-circulation of the Hajj clone and other unrelated W cc11 strains and South America, the UK and France share a genetically distinct W c11 strain. Other W lineages persist in low numbers in Europe, North America and the meningitis belt. In summary, WGS is helping to unravel the complex genomic epidemiology of group W meningococcal strains. Wider application of WGS and strengthening of global IMD surveillance is necessary to monitor the continued evolution of group W lineages. There is need for a vaccine that is protective against group W in the meningitis belt.
Public Health relevance: This essay presents a critical review of studies reporting IMD surveillance data spanning four decades and places in context the recent findings of WGS studies to the epidemiology of group W IMD. This report will be of use to Public Health surveillance and policy professionals in several countries currently facing a rise in number of W cc11 cases and persistence of sporadic group W cases. Data presented in this review also provides evidence in support of introduction of group W in the African meningitis belt.

Primary healthcare centres (PHCs) play a pivotal role in chronic disease care and prevention and therefore in the experience and satisfaction of patients with non-communicable diseases (NCDs). This survey examined the experiences and satisfaction of 315 Patients with NCDs receiving care from PHCs. Participants were from attendees at Ministry of Health PHCs in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Findings indicate that most patients were satisfied with the care they received and confirmed the importance of providers' and physicians' communication skills in this. There was a lack of evidence of managed care, including patient involvement in disease management suggesting that steps are needed to empower patients to take a greater role in disease management. This study emphasises the important role of physicians in providing patients with information and empowering them to access community health facilities for self-managed care. This study also indicates a need to strengthen the primary health care system's focus on care beyond PHCs.

Cities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) have experienced rapid uncontrolled urbanism due to the absence of robust planning measures. This causes lack or ill distributions of facilities and segregation between these facilities and the residences in districts and neighbourhoods across the King-dom. It also encouraged citizens to adopt unhealthy lifestyles which in turn aggravated their health conditions. This paper discusses the critical relationship between the unhealthy lifestyle of diabetic patients and the proximity of public gardens. A survey on 76 diabetic patients and their living conditions was carried out. A visual and mapping survey was conducted on public gardens and vacant lands around diabetics’ homes. The study found that cities in the Eastern province, KSA have unhealthy urban and suburban settings in terms of the proximity and characteristics of public gardens. It is revealed that patients have unhealthier lifestyle and frequent diabetic symptoms when gardens are far away and vacant lands are nearer to their homes. This calls the need for emergent amendment of the present planning regulations for the use of vacant lands and public amenities including public gardens in Saudi cities so they would help improving the physical, psychological and spiritual health of the diabetic patients and the community.

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Although previous studies have highlighted the negative effects of the promotion of unhealthy food and beverages on social media, there is limited understanding regarding the role of social media to develop social influence that can trigger social learning for the development of healthy lifestyle behaviour. This study intends to contribute by upgrading the knowledge on how advance social platforms can act as an effective educational medium for health professionals to engage with a community about healthy nutrition and lifestyle. </sec> <sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> This study intends to contribute by upgrading the knowledge on how advance social platforms can act as an effective educational medium for health professionals to engage with a community about healthy nutrition and lifestyle. </sec> <sec> <title>METHODS</title> The study took a social constructionist approach because such an approach can improve understanding of the social context of food consumption, living habits, use of social media and awareness about healthy lifestyle behaviour in the context of Saudi Arabia. This study collected data from health professionals (dietitians, psychiatrists, nutritionists) as well as the general public of Saudi Arabia using focus groups discussion and semi-structured interviews. </sec> <sec> <title>RESULTS</title> The findings of this study reveal that information and knowledge sharing among celebrities, friends, friends of friends, health professionals and patients created a social wave to learn from each other’s experiences and develop the motivation to practice healthy lifestyle behaviour. The painful stories of patients, warnings of health professionals, and the benefits of compliance with social influence led to improvements in health (happy mood, low diabetes and blood pressure, better mental condition) and increased motivation in the community to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviour. </sec> <sec> <title>CONCLUSIONS</title> The findings of this study reveal that information and knowledge sharing among celebrities, friends, friends of friends, health professionals and patients created a social wave to learn from each other’s experiences and develop the motivation to practice healthy lifestyle behaviour.

Abstract Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious global health issue which significantly impacts public health and socioeconomic development. Exploring how the community perceives the causes of deaths and their associated risk factors is crucial for public health. This study combines verbal autopsy (VA) with the Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) register to explore community perceptions of causes of death and associated influential factors in the western region of Saudi Arabia. 302 VA interviews were conducted with relatives or caregivers of deceased who died between 2017 and 2021 based on T2DM medical register from Alnoor Specialist Hospital in Makkah city, Saudi Arabia. Cause-specific mortality fractions (CSMFs) obtained from the VA using the InterVA-5 model were utilized to assess community perception. We used a multivariable logistic regression model to determine factors influencing community perceptions of causes of death. Lin’s CCC with 95% CI was used to analyze the concordance for the CSMFs from verbal autopsy causes of death (VACoD) as a presumed reference standard and family-reported causes of death (FRCoD). The outcomes of this study demonstrate a generally broad spectrum of community perceived mortalities, with some critical misconceptions based on the type of death and the deceased’s background and characteristics, with an overall CCC of 0.60 (95% CI: 0.20-1.00; p=003). The study findings demonstrate that community perception is weak if the deceased was male compared to female (aOR: 0.52; 95% CI: 0.26 –1.03) and if the deceased was >=80 years compared to 34–59 years (aOR: 0.48; 95% CI: 0.16-1.38), but it significantly improves among married compared to single (aOR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.02 –4.42). The Saudi community perception of causes of death with reported type 2 diabetes was relatively plausible but varied substantially based on the type of death, sex, age >=80 years, and other vital events like marital status. Higher or lower community perception is attributed to how people may perceive risk factors associated with the causes of death, which can guide public health planning and interventional programs. The study findings further emphasize the need to employ robust and standardized VA methods within the routine medical services for a systemized assessment of families’ reported causes of death.

Background: The World Health Organization considered health literacy as one of the most important determinant factors to promote various aspects of public health. Low health literacy can contribute to increased rates of hospitalization, reduced rates of medication adherence, decreased capacity to manage chronic diseases and increased the rate of emergency department visit. Objective: To evaluate the degree of health literacy among the sample, and to examine the relation between age and education level of the participants and health literacy level. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted, by using an Arabic version of SAHL scale. Data were collected between November 2015 to December 2015 with 105 females in outpatient clinics. Result: The selected females in outpatient clinics have adequate health literacy levels, with a mean score (15.13±1.856). Moreover, there is no relation between the level of health literacy with age and education level of the participants. Conclusion: This study provides knowledge that can be applied to evolve schemes to encourage the health literacy level among females in Saudi Arabia.

MERS-CoV (Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus) originated in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and the number of cases and deaths is continuing to rise. The epidemiology of MERS-CoV has been thoroughly analyzed, but there are few reports on the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) of healthcare workers towards the infection in Riyadh. The objective of this research was to assess the KAP of the general public towards MERS-CoV. This cross-sectional study involved 309 participants in Riyadh. The overall mean scores for knowledge was 3.43 (SD: 0.54), for attitude against prevention was 3.0 (SD: 0.67), and for practices was 3.7 (SD: 0.72), indicating good KP and satisfactory A. Scores only differed by nationality (P <0.001) (age, education, income and gender were non-significant). We recommend various strategies to keep the public updated about the current situation, and about advances in prevention and treatment. Further multi-regions studies with large sample size are needed to build upon the findings of current study.

This research has investigated and analysed why and how Management Accounting (MA) has contributed, at the institutional level, to improving Health Care Quality (HCQ) within the Saudi Arabian Public Health Sector (SAPHS). Analysing these developments as a form of change consistent with the dynamics found in the emergence of New Public Management (NPM), this study draws on Neo-Institutional Sociology (NIS). The research studies how MA change operated across institutional contexts within an NPM-based approach to improving health care and public health in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). It focuses on how, in this context, the roles and practices of MA have been defined, designed and implemented to promote ‘quality outcomes’ in health care. Methodologically this has involved two extensive case studies of MA change in two carefully selected hospitals, including semi-structured interviews with accountants, management, consultants and clinicians along with the collection and analysis of key documentary information used in managing the human and financial resources within the hospitals.
The findings show how and how far new management accounting practices (MAPs) have promoted the ability and ‘right’ of management to coordinate control and monitor the human and financial resources, but in a way that specifies HCQ outcomes for patients, thus meeting both economic and social/political objectives. It is argued that MAPs had significant success because the allocation of budgetary resources by the Ministry of Health (MOH) was based on hitting non-financial quality and productivity targets. In both hospitals MAPs came to operate within a ‘non-accounting budgetary style’ (Hopwood, 1973) de-emphasising cost control, and managers and staff focussed just on effectiveness and efficiency measures. However, this initiative can also be seen as a response to significant institutional pressures and concerns at both government and professional levels, responding to ‘public voice’ concerns over HCQ. The response drew on world-leading medical research and practitioners to introduce best-practice HCQ solutions allied to internationally accredited quality standards into the KSA hospital sector. The study found that coercive, mimetic and normative isomorphism all contributed to the successful implementation of the HCQ agenda, and the new MAPs here contributed to strengthening the internal and external legitimacy of certain key KSA institutions. There was some institutionally significant resistance from clinicians who saw these MAPs as compromising their professionally-defined focus on quality outcomes for patients. But over time, the mix of ‘soft’ quality and ‘hard’ MA derived targets was increasingly accepted and internalised as integral to delivering HCQ.

Abstract Background The purpose of this paper is to develop an integrated research model to identify the technological and non-technological factors that influence user acceptance of the CDSS. This model is empirically tested using a data sample collected from selected healthcare facilities in Saudi Arabia. Methods The research study uses the quantitative approach to evaluate the currently implemented CDSS as a part of Hospital Information System BESTCare 2.0 in Saudi Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs. A survey questionnaire is conducted at all Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs hospitals for data collection. Then, the survey data is analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and AMOS 21.0. This analysis includes: measurement instrument reliability, discriminant validity, convergent validity, and hypothesis testing. Moreover, a CDSS usage data sample is extracted from the data warehouse to be analyzed as an additional data source. Results The results of the hypotheses testing show that usability, availability, and medical history accessibility are the important factors influencing user acceptance of CDSS. Conclusions This study provides prudence pertaining to healthcare facilities and their higher management to adopt CDSS.

This study aimed to explore the multi-dimensional health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among tuberculosis patients and examined its association between with their demographic profiles. A cross-sectional survey using the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Tuberculosis (FACIT-TB) was carried out on a convenience sample of 87 tuberculosis patients at a large tertiary hospital operating the National TB Control Program (NTP) under the Ministry of Health, Western Region, Saudi Arabia. The overall HRQOL of the respondents is poor, whereas the different dimensions were rated as poor to moderate. The respondents’ age, smoking status, duration of TB, experience of travelling outside KSA, and educational attainment exhibited significant association to some degree with some of the dimensions of HRQOL. Strategies to strengthen the treatment support could sustain acceptable levels of physical, social and emotional functioning among TB patients. The need to increase public awareness about tuberculosis is needed to ensure prompt healthcare seeking, early detection, adherence to remedy, and better prognosis.

Diabetes mellitus is a serious global health issue which significantly impacts public health and socioeconomic development. Exploring how the community perceives the causes of death and their associated risk factors is crucial for public health. This study combines verbal autopsy (VA) with the Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) register to explore community perceptions of causes of death and associated influential factors in Makkah province, Saudi Arabia. 302 VA interviews were conducted with relatives or caregivers of deceased who died between 2018 and 2021 based on T2DM medical register from Alnoor Specialist Hospital in Makkah City, Saudi Arabia. Cause-specific mortality fractions (CSMFs) obtained from the VA using the InterVA-5 model were utilized to assess community perception. We used a multivariable logistic regression model to determine factors influencing community perceptions of causes of death. Lin’s CCC with 95% CI was used to analyze the concordance for the CSMFs from verbal autopsy causes of death (VACoD) as a presumed reference standard and family-reported causes of death (FRCoD). The outcomes of this study demonstrate a generally broad spectrum of community perceived mortalities, with some critical misconceptions based on the type of death and other vital events like marital status, with an overall CCC of 0.60 (95% CI: 0.20–1.00; p = 003). The study findings demonstrate that community perception is weak if the deceased was male compared to female (aOR: 0.52; 95% CI: 0.26–1.03) and if the deceased was > = 80 years compared to 34–59 years (aOR: 0.48; 95% CI: 0.16–1.38), but it significantly improves among married compared to single (aOR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.02–4.42). Exploring community perception of causes of death is crucial as it provides valuable insights into the community’s understanding, beliefs, and concerns regarding mortality. Higher or lower community perception is attributed to how people may perceive risk factors associated with the causes of death, which can guide public health planning and interventional programs. The study findings further emphasize the need to employ robust and standardized VA methods within the routine medical services for a systemized assessment of families’ reported causes of death.

Background and aim Early detection and intervention can improve the treatment outcome of childhood mental disorders, and primary school teachers may play an important role in referring suspected cases to mental health facilities if they have good awareness and attitudes toward these disorders. The aim of this study is to assess the awareness and attitudes of primary school teachers toward childhood mental disorders in Taif, Saudi Arabia. Methods This is a cross-sectional study conducted among classroom teachers in primary schools in Taif, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It was conducted during the period from 2022 to 2023 in both public and private schools. An anonymous, self-administered, online questionnaire was used to assess participants’ awareness and attitudes toward pupils with mental health issues. The collected data were analyzed using the chi-square test to examine the associations between various categories and the ANOVA test to compare means. Results The study included 417 teachers, 63.5% of whom were males, the mean of their ages was 39.59 years (SD±8.66), and the mean of their work experience was 12.8 years (SD±8.02) in different teaching specialties. Among participants, 60.2% claimed that no pupils had mental health problems in their classes, 80.1% had not referred any pupils to mental health facilities, and 88.5% did not receive any training related to childhood mental health problems. A humble percent (12.2%) of the participants claimed a good awareness of the signs and symptoms of childhood disorders. Only 54% of teachers advise visiting a psychiatric clinic in case of psychiatric problems, and a similar percentage of teachers believe that psychiatric drugs cause addiction. The male gender, being specialized in humanitarian subjects, having relatives or friends with childhood mental disorders, and receiving training related to childhood mental health were significantly associated with teachers’ better awareness. Conclusion Primary school teachers generally lack awareness of childhood mental health and have underestimation and poor recognition of cases of mental disorders. There are many teachers who also have unfavorable attitudes toward psychiatric disorders, patients, and treatments, which requires much effort to improve their awareness and attitudes toward childhood mental disorders.

Objective: To compare the design and functioning of three health care systems in two developed countries, Australian and Switzerland with a developing country, Saudi Arabia.
Methods: Each country’s health care system was described and examined in terms of its funding, consumer participation, and overall governance on a local to national level.
Results: All three countries demonstrate a different funding model of health care system ranging from public and private contributions to the payment of health care insurance to a rely solely on government funding for health care services. While the third option obliges consumers with the sole responsibility for health care services.
Conclusion: Each health care system is vastly different in its governance, overall design, function and has a range of strengths and weaknesses in each system. There is much to be learnt from each system and improvements are to be made to each health system on an individualized basis. The limitations of this paper include a lack of influencing factors such as the cultural values and economic stability for each country.

An increasing trend of motivated individuals joining the gym for improving their fitness is an encouraging sign. Additionally, an attitudinal change in the dietary intake should also be a part of this routine to help achieve a healthy body and mind. Studies have shown that addressing the promotion of healthy eating, particularly when combined with the practice of physical activity, show satisfactory results when it comes to the control of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. A need was felt to conduct a baseline study to find out the attitude and behavioural preferences in terms of diet and exercise. This is a cross sectional study done on 164 male gym members. A pretested, preformed interviewee based, close ended questionnaire was used to collect data from the study participants in a time bound manner. Analysis was done through SPSS software.

<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Having a reliable source for health information is vital to build a strong foundation of knowledge, especially with the current revolution of the internet and social media, which raises many concerns regarding harmful effects on the health of the public. However, there are no studies on how the Saudi Arabian population seeks health information. Details about the most used and trusted sources of health information among the public will help health authorities and public awareness accounts on social media to effectively disseminate health information. </sec> <sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> To investigate the types of sources accessed by the Saudi Arabian population while seeking health information, as well as their level of trust in the sources and to assess the impact of these sources on their perception of medical knowledge and health decision-making. </sec> <sec> <title>METHODS</title> A cross-sectional study was conducted to meet the objectives. The study population included both men and women who were aged 16 years or more and visited primary care clinics at King Khalid University Hospital. Four hundred and thirteen participants were sampled using the simple random method, and a self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. The data were analyzed using SPSS software (IBM Corp, Armonk, New York, USA). </sec> <sec> <title>RESULTS</title> A total of 413 participants were included in this study, and of these, 99 (24.0%) were males and 206 (49.9%) had a bachelor’s degree. Doctors were chosen as the first source of information by 87.6% (283/323) of the participants, and they were completely trusted by most of the population (326/411, 79.3%). The second most commonly used source was pharmacists (112/194, 57.7%), and they were partially trusted by 41.4% (159/384) of the participants. Internet searches, social media, and traditional medicine were not prioritized by most of the participants as the first or second source of health information. The majority of the participants did not trust information obtained from social media, and WhatsApp was the most untrusted source. Almost half of the respondents (197/413, 47.7%) acknowledged that various sources of information can often help them understand their health problems. However, the majority disagreed on substituting a doctor’s prescription with information obtained from the internet or a friend or relative. </sec> <sec> <title>CONCLUSIONS</title> Although physicians were preferred and highly trusted, internet sources appeared to impact the medical knowledge of the population. The population still preferred to use internet search to obtain health information prior to a doctor’s visit. </sec>

Smoking is a major worldwide public health problem. It is the most important avoidable cause of premature morbidity and mortality in the world. In Saudi Arabia there is a recent trend toward increased Shisha smoking.13–16 Saudi adolescents nowadays spend part of their leisure time smoking shisha in cafes and restaurants. The estimated death rate of 4.9 million people in 1999 is expected to rise to 10 million by the 2020s and 2030s, 7 million of which will occur in developing countries. MethodStudy design: This will be a cross-sectional study will conducted at Al-Jouf University in Sakaka city. Data collection: Data will collect through a self-administered questionnaire constructed by the investigators. It included questions on socio-demographic variables, current cigarette and shisha smoking, smoking pattern and personal and family factors. Finding: that found a 29 smoker out of 68 total number of medicine college students , and a 13 smoker out of 33 total number of dentistry college , which means a 42 smoker in total of 101 students at all.

With the development and expansion of the city of Jeddah, the increase in the population and the integration of a variety of social structures has changed. The need for public open spaces has increased and the purpose of visiting these spaces has also changed. In previous studies the focus has been on the visits to public open spaces in the urban context of the city for the recreation of family members. In recent years however, new spaces have been designed for physical activities and especially for walking purposes. The vision 2030 of Saudi Arabia aims to develop open spaces to raise the level of public health of the kingdom by provide a good quality of urban public open spaces. Their design must consider the customs and traditions and adherence to Islamic Law.
This research aims to develop design recommendations for urban designers and landscape architects to improve women physical activity in urban public open spaces in Jeddah; Saudi Arabia. To achieve this aim, a comprehensive review of the literature was undertaken. This literature review focused on factors that associated with use of public open spaces for physical activity
The methodology adopted for this case study is using qualitative exploratory research design as a methodological choice to provide a complex contextual description of how people use urban public spaces and their experiences associated with them. The research strategy is developed through an investigation of spaces as an integration of form and cultural practice. Data has been gathered from semi-structured interviews and observations in open spaces. Thematic analysis is used to analyse the interviews. Interpretive structural modelling method conducts to validate the factors relationships that influence women use of urban public open spaces for physical activity.
The results of this research provide some insight in ways to help improve and develop the existing open spaces to meet women’s needs for practicing physical activities in urban public open spaces. The key finding of this research indicates that women visit designed open spaces and non-designed(incidental) spaces that meet their needs. Proximity factors indicate a significant importance of women visitation urban public open spaces. Also, the factor of privacy is also shown to significantly influence how places are used in terms of temporal and spatial dimensions. Other key finding of this research shows that public open spaces often fail to meet the identified needs of women users. Also, it concerns about lacking designed spaces that provide good environment for women use. Therefore, this research enhances knowledge of patterns of usage for public open spaces in countries that follows Islamic law and found some similarities of patterns of use in physical activity purpose when comparing Western studies.

Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 IgG among health care workers (HCWs) is crucial to inform infection control programs. Conflicting reports have emerged on the longevity of SARS-CoV-2 IgG. Our objective is to describe the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 IgG in HCWs and perform 8 months longitudinal follow-up (FU) to assess the duration of detectable IgG. In addition, we aim to explore the risk factors associated with positive SARS-CoV-2 IgG. The study was conducted at a large COVID-19 public hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. All HCWs were recruited by social media platform. The SARS-CoV-2 IgG assay against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antigen was used. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine association between IgG seropositive status and clinical and epidemiological factors. A total of 2528 (33% of the 7737 eligible HCWs) participated in the survey and 2523 underwent baseline serological testing in June 2020. The largest occupation groups sampled were nurses [n = 1351(18%)], physicians [n = 456 (6%)], administrators [n = 277 (3.6%)], allied HCWs [n = 205(3%)], pharmacists [n = 95(1.2%)], respiratory therapists [n = 40(0.5%)], infection control staff [n = 21(0.27%], and others [n = 83 (1%)]. The total cohort median age was 36 (31–43) years and 66.3% were females. 273 were IgG seropositive at baseline with a seroprevalence of 10.8% 95% CI (9.6%-12.1%). 165/185 and 44/112 were persistently IgG positive, at 2–3 months and 6 months FU respectively. The median (25 th – 75 th percentile) IgG level at the 3 different time points was 5.86 (3.57–7.04), 3.91 (2.46–5.38), 2.52 (1.80–3.99) respectively. Respiratory therapists OR 2.38, ( P = 0.035), and those with hypertension OR = 1.86, ( P = 0.009) were more likely to be seropositive. A high proportion of seropositive staff had prior symptoms 214/273(78%), prior anosmia was associated with the presence of antibodies, with an odds ratio of 9.25 (P<0.001), as well as fever and cough. Being a non-smoker, non-Saudi, and previously diagnosed with COVID-19 infection by PCR were statistically significantly different by seroprevalence status. We found that the seroprevalence of IgG against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antigen was 10.8% in HCWs at the peak of the pandemic in Saudi Arabia. We also observed a decreasing temporal trend of IgG seropositivity over 8 months follow up period.

The quality and quantity of health care services delivered by the Malawi public health system is severely limited, due to, among other things the shortage of adequate numbers of trained health care workers. In order to suggest policy changes and implement corrective measures, there may be need to describe the perceptions of the legislature on how they perceive as the cause of the problem, which could be the solutions and an evaluation of those solution. In this paper, I present the finding from a qualitative study of Hansards (official verbatim record of parliamentary speeches) analysed by discourse analysis. Parliamentarians identified the shortage of health workers as resulting from death, retirement and brain drain to other countries mostly the UK, Saudi Arabia and South Africa. Training more health workers, training new but lower cadres of health workers not marketable to the outside world, improving the working conditions and remuneration of health workers are suggested as some of the solutions. Even without the brain drain of health workers to other countries, Malawi's health sector personnel numbers are not adequate to serve the needs of the country. Relying on training more health workers in the numbers normally produced from the prevailing training institutions is unlikely to remove the shortages.

Social media (SM) applications have played a critical role for the rapid dissemination of information during the COVID-19 pandemic. Limited insight is provided into the main reliable SM source for information and awareness about the pandemic. This study examines the role of SM applications in creating awareness during the pandemic in Saudi Arabia. The study used a quantitative approach and distributed an online questionnaire via SM platforms during October 2020 and received 343 valid responses from university students, healthcare professionals, and the public. Findings showed that despite the wide use of SM applications, the MOH website was the main source of information relied upon during the pandemic. Gender differences were found on the reliance of SM platforms for information. Developing SM policies and best-practice guidelines are necessary to better perceive SM applications as effective public health educational sources and awareness channels during crises. © 2020 International Consortium for Electronic Business.

Unhealthy behaviors initiated at a young age tend to remain in adulthood. Accumulation of unhealthy behaviors has cumulative negative effects on health status. The aim of this study was to examine patterns of co-occurrence of unhealthy behaviors (smoking, physical inactivity, high sugar intake, low fruit and vegetable intake, and infrequent tooth brushing) among younger and older Saudi male adolescents. A stratified cluster random sample of 1213 Saudi Arabian male school students living in Riyadh city answered the adapted WHO Health Behavior in School-Aged Children (HBSC) questionnaire on health-related behaviors. The co-occurrence patterns of unhealthy behaviors were assessed using an observed-to-expected ratio (O/E) method. The results showed that the pattern of three unhealthy behaviors (smoking + high sugar intake + physical inactivity) co-occurred with the highest O/E ratio of 3.16 among younger adolescents. In comparison, the pattern of (smoking + high sugar intake + low fruit/vegetables intake) was high among older adolescents with O/E: 1.67. The current study identifies patterns of unhealthy behaviors among younger and older Saudi male adolescents. Identification of these patterns is important for health promotion interventions.

Background: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an educational program on Monkeypox knowledge among elderly individuals residing at an old age home in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Methods: With a one-group pretest-posttest design, the study spanned from September 24, 2023, to December 2, 2023. A sample of 50 participants aged 60 and above received a structured teaching program tailored to their comprehension levels. Results: Demographically, the participants exhibited diverse backgrounds, with a majority having completed secondary education, and a significant prevalence of chronic diseases. Health professionals were the primary source of health-related information for the elderly. The educational intervention led to a substantial improvement in Monkeypox knowledge, with significant increases in correct responses observed in the post-test compared to the pretest. Conclusion: The findings underscore the efficacy of tailored health education programs for enhancing knowledge among the elderly, emphasizing the crucial role of healthcare providers in disseminating accurate health information.

Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted between 2013 and 2014 among attendees of the Ministry of Health hospitals. Results: The total number of participants was 3,994 (2,441 males and 1,553 females), with a mean age of 31.95 ± 9.45 years (range 12 to 77 years). The prevalence of STIs and HIV was 6.2% and 0.05% respectively. The mean age for infected people with STIs was 29.42 ± 7.51, vs. 32.12 ± 9.55 for non infected (p < 0.05). There was no diffference between infected and non infected people regarding gender, occupation and marital status. The prevalence of STIs was more commonly reported among non-Saudi (10.9%). Drug use (OR = 4.74; 95%; CI: 3.47–6.48), intravenous drug use (OR = 4.51; 95% CI: 1.45–13.12), illegal sex (OR = 10.7; 95% CI: 7.62–13.32), sex for money (OR = 6.36; 95% CI: 4.52–8.93), sex for pleasure (OR=9.76; 95% CI: 7.29–13.07) were significantly associated with STIs. Conclusion: The prevalence of STIs including HIV in Saudi Arabia is low compared to other countries in the region and globally.

The Saudi Arabian Vision 2030 encompasses the Health Sector Transformation Program (HSTP), an initiative aimed at enhancing the accessibility, affordability, and quality of healthcare, with a strong emphasis on patient-centered care. To achieve this vision, the government has been providing training to Primary Healthcare (PHC) centers on patient-centered care, recognizing that spending quality time with patients is crucial for making informed clinical decisions. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate provider satisfaction with the quality of services they provide and assess the impact of organizational factors on care quality. This study represents the first comprehensive assessment of job satisfaction among PHC providers in the Eastern region of Saudi Arabia. It seeks to gauge job satisfaction among PHC providers and explore its associated impact on the quality of care they deliver.This study employed a quantitative cross-sectional design. Data were collected using a modified version of the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), supplemented by three newly added dimensions. Additionally, questions addressing general characteristics were incorporated into the survey instrument. Data analysis involved calculating frequencies and percentages for univariate analysis, employing t-tests for comparisons between two groups, and utilizing ANOVA for comparisons among multiple groups (bivariate analysis).A total of 143 PHC providers took part in this study. Of these, 48% reported high satisfaction, while the rest were either dissatisfied or neutral. PHC providers were highly satisfied with supervision (17%, N=94). On the other hand, they were dissatisfied with contingent rewards (3%, N=15). There was a significant difference found between the intention to leave the job (yes, no) and job satisfaction scores (mean (SD)= 83.58 (16.174) vs. mean (SD)=101.64 (16.209), p-value < 0.001). There were also significant relationships between general characteristics and the dimensions such as co-workers, promotion, responsibility, nature of work, operating procedure, and communication (p-value< 0.05).The main findings of this study suggest that PHC providers working in PHC centers in the Eastern region were satisfied with their work, especially with supervision and patient care. However, the findings also revealed that there are many areas of the job of PHC providers that require planned reform, such as contingent reward and communication. Furthermore, intention to leave the job was significantly related to job satisfaction score and all the dimensions. The study findings will help policymakers and the Ministry of Health to develop an employee engagement and satisfaction program to track the PHC providers' levels of satisfaction.

Hearing impairment (HI) is the most common global disabling condition. It is a considerable public health condition in childhood that is associated with long-term socio-emotional-academic, and communication difficulties. The current study explored the knowledge and awareness of HI among school-age children and its related factor in Taif, Saudi Arabia.A cross-sectional study was done on 268 Saudi school-age children in the population of the Taif region of Saudi Arabia. A predesigned questionnaire was used to collect their demographic data, consanguinity, education level, and academic performance.About 45.9% of parents had good awareness related to hearing loss and its impact on children's life. Only 19% (n = 51) of parents reported that their children encountered language problems in communicating with others. When we assessed the relationship between this language problem and academic performance, it was found that children with language problems had below-average academic performance (P < 0.001).The study showed that parents' awareness about children's hearing was not that satisfactory, and there was a considerable amount of difficulties faced by the children in their personal and social life due to these hearing problems. It is imperative to create awareness among the public regarding various modifiable risk factors of HI by conducting health awareness campaigns.

Background: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency anemia is the most common metabolic red cell abnormality worldwide. G6PD deficiency anemia is very common in Saudi Arabia. Objective: The aims of the current study were to evaluate and assess knowledge and awareness about G6PD deficiency anemia and to find any association between sociodemographic variables and knowledge about this disease in the Saudi population in Jazan region. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at Jazan University. Results: A total of 709 individuals completed the questionnaire and were considered in the study. In general, the study population had overall fair knowledge, scoring 50% or above on all domains of the study. In addition, we found a significant association between sociodemographic variables, specifically gender, family income and education level, and knowledge/awareness of G6PD deficiency anemia. Conclusion: Our study found fair to good knowledge of G6PD itself, but not of the mode of inheritance among the study population. The study suggests that public health campaigns and screening programs should be conducted and established to screen for these disorders at younger ages, instead of only relying on premarital screening program.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has placed the world in a crisis like no other, which has a significant impact on the lives of people and the travel industry. Due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, this situation may also affect the pilgrims to travel for the annual Hajj and Umrah in mass gatherings as it can spread infectious diseases between pilgrims and the host community. Therefore, this study aims to determine the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimage’s risk perception regarding the COVID-19 issues, which may contribute to the pilgrim’s willingness to travel to Saudi Arabia after the pandemic ends. This study was conducted while COVID-19 cases were still high in Malaysia. The online survey was distributed to registered Umrah & Hajj pilgrims, and they were selected based on simple random sampling. The results showed that as tourists perceive more risks during religious mass gatherings of Hajj and Umrah, their willingness to travel decreases. Overall, this study might contribute in providing pilgrimage data to tourism practitioners.

This study aims to explore, identify and understand the design and the strategy for healthcare delivery at both macro and micro levels in an informatics field in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. For both patients and professionals, health information technology offers greater quality, safer treatment, and much more. Despite their potential, they are expensive to create and execute. The success of applied information technology in healthcare, on the other hand, is determined by user acceptance and utilisation. This study offers a framework for analysing how health professionals view and intend to use health information technology. To define the primary factors to be assessed, thorough literature research was done. As a measuring methodology, a questionnaire was created and sent to the experts, who are information systems professionals with at least five years of experience. According to a five-point Likert scale, the replies were generally highly agreed, with roughly 79 per cent agreeing. Female respondents were more accepting of electronic data storage than male ones. Other notable distinctions between occupations were also discovered.

Abstract To date, very little research has been conducted regarding visitor satisfaction with operations at mega events and mass gatherings. We examine the user satisfaction of passengers of the Makkah Metro in Saudi Arabia during Hajj. Hajj is one of the largest mass gatherings in the world. Our aim is to compare the sensitivities towards waiting time of different user groups in order to identify user groups that are particularly sensitive to waiting time. Those user groups might then be scheduled preferably to the Hajj rituals in such a way that their expected waiting time is minimized. For this reason, we are interested in the interactions between the passengers’ person-specific attributes and their perceived waiting time at the stations. We apply an ordered logit model to unique survey data. Our results reveal that women are much more sensitive to waiting time than men. In addition to gender, a pilgrim’s country of origin also seems to play a significant role, which has operational implications on crowd management.

Aim: The aim of this dissertation is to produce an original piece of investigative research into perceptions of smoking cessation services provided by the TCP in the Riyadh region.
Objectives: In order to realise this aim, the dissertation has the following objectives:
1. To investigate perceptions of the extent of the health care (smoking cessation) services provided under the TCP for smokers in the Riyadh region.
2. To investigate the perceptions of male clients and health care services professionals in the smoking cessation clinics in this region, on the effectiveness of the clinics in raising awareness of the dangers of smoking, in order to encourage smokers to quit.
3. To identify the perceived strengths and limitations of health care (smoking cessation) services provided for smokers in the Riyadh region specifically as a platform for developing those strengths in the future.
Design: Primary data was collected through questionnaires administered to male clients attending the smoking cessation clinics in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and professional staff working in those same clinics. The views of respondents represent their individual subjective experience of one specific aspect of an objective social experience, in this case the functioning of the Tobacco Control Program.
Methods: A questionnaire was devised based on the policies and activities of the Tobacco Control Programme in Saudi Arabia. Convenience sampling was used, conducting the survey among 500 male clients attending the smoking cessation clinics in Riyadh and 30 staff in the clinics. The sampling was purposive, seeking to obtain the views of service-users and service-providers in the clinics, as those who would be expected to be more informed about the Tobacco Control Programme rather than a random sample drawn from the general population, such as a household survey. The Pilot Study was conducted in a smoking cessation clinic run by an anti-smoking charity in Riyadh.
Results: The results obtained from both sets of questionnaires indicated in Sections A and B that respondents considered that the Tobacco Control Program was actively engaged in a series of activities relating to tobacco control, in raising awareness of the hazards of smoking and providing treatment. Responses in Sections C and D suggested that clients and staff
3
perceived that the Tobacco Control Program was operating effectively, despite some difficulties occasioned by a lack of resources.
Conclusions: The level of satisfaction with the performance of the Tobacco Control Program indicated in the responses was high. The uniformity of the responses may be responsible due to two factors – a relative lack of cultural diversity among respondents, and limitations of the study itself in overcoming potential problems of reporting bias. Given the setting of the study and the methods chosen, this may have resulted in a measure of unwillingness to criticise aspects of the Program. Nevertheless, as the first study of satisfaction with the TCP since its inception in 2002, valuable lessons will be learned for future surveys to obtain data, perhaps based more closely on surveys such as those conducted in the UK to measure satisfaction with the NHS. A more standardised international approach should, therefore, be the way forward in terms of research design and methods.

Tourism is the largest contributor to income for Indonesia and other large countries, especially those with a similar tourism support capacity accompanied by good and proper promotions. Since early of 2020, with the Covid-19 pandemic, the tourism sector has experienced a very drastic decline. Efforts made at the present time are adjusting to the destination circumstances and applying health protocols. As a result, one may use the virtual tour platform from home to any virtual destinations in any country. The virtual tour facility is divided into several parts including Virtual Reality Tour, Virtual Augmented, Virtual 360 degree even by using google maps one may travel even though it is still limited. This paper presents the virtual tour of the Kalantan Museum in Kota Bharu Malaysia and the Hajj Pilgrimaged Tour in Saudi Arabia. They are explored during the Covid-19 Pandemic. These virtual tours can be reached with flexible time and we believe that they help the tourist to visit both destinations as if they were a real travel trip.

One of Jordan's essential border crossings, the Al-Omari border crossing, is 1 of 3 land crossings between Jordan and Saudi Arabia and is located 160 km west of the capital city of Amman. Given its economic importance and essential role in the functioning of food supply networks across the region, Jordan undertook evidence-driven actions to keep the border crossing safely open during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Cross-border coordination and collaboration, specifically with international contact tracing and case management, have been critical elements of Jordan's response. While several bottlenecks and delays led to documented clusters of infections among truck drivers, this case study illustrates the use of evidence to mitigate disease exposure and spread. Plans to manage public health threats need to consider sustainable strengthened surveillance and laboratory capacities coupled with efficient cross-border communication and coordination plans implemented across multiple sectors engaged in cross-country health.

Background: Many previous researches have been conducted in different regions of Saudi Arabia to identify the prevalence of smoking among the intermediate, secondary and high school but no studies have been conducted at Makka region.This study aimed to calculate smoking prevalence among the male secondary school students in Makka region and try to explore its causes.Methods:This cross sectional study was conducted at three male secondary schools in Makka region selected randomly. The age of the students was ranged from 15 to 18 years. Data was collected by an Arabic questionnaire and was analysed by using the statistical package of social science (SPSS) version 16.Results: It was found that 20.2% (83 students out of 411) were smokers, 77.1% of them were Saudis. Cigarette smoking was found to be the commonest type (44%) of smoking among them. About 20% of the smokers reported that they started smoking because they have smoker friends, while about 19% reported that they started smoking because they have one or two smokers in their family and about 10% reported they began smoking as they were seeing it as one sign of manhood. Unfortunately, only 65.1% of the smoker students attempted to quit smoking.Conclusions:Despite the apparent awareness of the general public regarding the hazardous effects of smoking, the prevalence of smoking in Makkah secondary school students is relatively high. Extensive health education and religious orientation program is urgently needed to combat the expected future epidemic of smoking.

This study investigated the perspective and confidence level of teachers in boys’ public high schools. A total of 80 boys’ public high schools were randomly selected from four areas in Riyadh (20 north, 20 south, 20 east, and 20 west). Teachers who taught nutrition in their curriculum were interviewed using a validated questionnaire. A chi-square statistical test was run to test the differences between teachers’ perspective and confidence level, and their demographic variables. Almost all teachers (97.6%) agreed that health education curriculum should be taught as core for high school students in Saudi Arabia. Most of the teachers (88.8%) were interested in teaching about nutrition. However, almost two third of the teachers (63.8%) did not have adequate nutrition curricular materials. In addition, the majority of the teachers (70%) did not receive adequate training from qualified people on nutrition education. Most of the teachers were (88.8%) confident that if they do a good job teaching nutrition, their students will be interested in nutrition and will change their dietary behaviors. This study found that there were significant differences among teachers according to their major and their perspective and confidence level about nutrition education. The results of this study will help identify problems that affected teachers’ confidence level of teaching nutrition in their curricula. The investigators will provide the Saudi ministry of education with recommendations to solve the identified problems.

Background Family medicine is a specialty that provides care for family members' physical, social, and psychological aspects regardless of age, gender, and health conditions. A family physician can manage a wide range of health conditions and prevent various diseases. However, there are scarce data on the awareness and perceptions of the Saudi population regarding family medicine; therefore, we aim to determine the awareness and perception of family medicine and family physicians in the population of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Methodology This cross-sectional study was conducted in Jeddah and randomly enrolled 519 participants aged 18 years and older through an online self-administered survey. Microsoft Excel and SPSS were employed for the data entry and analysis. Result The analysis indicated that 86.7% of the participants had heard about family physicians, 55.1% recognized the family physician's role, 61.7% had never visited one, and 57.2% were unfamiliar with the locations of family medicine clinics. Conclusion The results of this study demonstrated that the general population of Jeddah has moderate positive responses toward the role of a family physician as a vital element in the healthcare system. However, the majority of the participants had never previously visited a family physician and were unfamiliar with the locations of family medicine clinics.

Background In recent years, there has been an increase in the use of the internet and information technology for accessing health information. This study aimed to determine the factors that affect patients with neurological disabilities and their willingness to search for information via the internet. In addition, we aimed to assess how patients manage this information, considering the increasing availability of online information and websites that discuss health and diseases, as well as the spread of communication technology and its accessibility to the public. Methodology A cross-sectional, online, self-administered, questionnaire study was conducted in Saudi Arabia. The study targeted patients with neurological diseases who had disabilities. The questionnaire was designed to measure the demographic data, physical disability using the 10-item physical function component of the 36-Item Short Form Health survey, the perceived usefulness of online health information, the perceived ease of use, and the perceived risk of online health information. Lastly, the questionnaire measured online health information-seeking intentions and information use. Data analysis was performed using RStudio (R version 4.1.1, Posit, Boston, USA). Results We received 1,179 responses, of which 399 were excluded due to using another way to get information rather than the internet, 31 did not have neurological disabilities, and 136 did not complete the questionnaire. The remaining 613 responses were included in the final analysis. The participants were mostly male (54.6%), not married (54.6%), and had a bachelor's degree (49.99%). The average age of participants was 18-25 years (24.5%) and 26-35 years (23.2%), Additionally, most participants resided in the western (26.9%) and eastern (25.9%) regions. Most participants (39.5%) had a monthly income of 5,000 to 10,000 SAR. Further, the most common neurological diseases were multiple sclerosis and epilepsy (26.9% and 23.2%, respectively). Based on the analysis of the data, the most important factor affecting online health information-seeking intention was that people with higher monthly incomes were more likely to seek online health information; these included people with an income of 10,000-20,000 SAR and >20,000 SAR. The most common factor affecting information use was the region of residence. The southern and western regions were less likely to adopt information use. Conclusions The monthly income and the area of residence had the greatest impact on people with neurological disabilities who sought online health information in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Educational campaigns and workshops should be arranged to increase the population's awareness of this topic, as well as to reveal the extent and prevalence of online health information seeking among disabled patients.

Background and objective Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It is most commonly associated with respiratory symptoms, which can vary from one individual to another. In addition, many patients can recover from this condition without undergoing any special treatment plan. In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and, soon after, Saudi Arabia put in place strict quarantine measures in all cities across the country to protect its citizens from the spread of COVID-19. The key objective of the quarantine program was to prevent infectious transmission from individuals who were potentially incubating the virus. Quarantine can have a significant psychological impact on human lives. With their freedom restricted and everyday life affected, people can experience behavioral changes. If people are better informed regarding such unusual situations and their effects on their oral and general health, it could go a long way in motivating them to adopt healthy practices during quarantine periods. In light of this, the aim of this cross-sectional survey was to assess the impact of quarantine on oral hygiene practices among the general public living in Riyadh City. The effect of quarantine on any changes in oral health and hygiene was also assessed. Methodology A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out among 570 adult participants from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, who were aged 20 years and above. The data were collected using an online, self-administered, and structured questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of 18 questions divided into two sections: the first part comprised questions related to demographic details and the second part consisted of questions related to oral hygiene practices and oral health. Results The results of the survey showed that the quarantine had affected oral hygiene practices positively by increasing the awareness of the general public about hygiene practices. Conclusions COVID-19 has affected our lives in various ways. Based on our findings in this study, the general population in Riyadh displayed an improvement in awareness and care about their general and oral hygiene, especially those in the age group of 20-30 years. Also, the rate of toothbrushing witnessed a positive effect during the pandemic. Some parents focused more on their children’s oral hygiene. These findings may well be attributed to the increased awareness gained through social media platforms and partly due to the fear of the potential unavailability of dental facilities during the quarantine period.

Background Vaccine hesitancy poses a substantial challenge to the field of public health. There are various factors that influence the willingness of parents to vaccinate their children. Addressing the factors contributing to vaccine hesitancy within the community has the potential to facilitate the development of more effective approaches for global vaccination initiatives. This study aims to assess parents' perspectives regarding the immunization of children aged five to 12 against COVID-19, including their experiences with adverse effects, as well as the factors that influence their hesitancy or acceptance of the vaccine in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. Methods A web-based, cross-sectional study utilized an independently administered online questionnaire. The validated questionnaire was distributed to study participants through social networking platforms in order to recruit individuals from various locations in the eastern region of Saudi Arabia, such as Dammam, Al-Hassa, Al-Jubail, Ras Tanura, Dhahran, Al-Khobar, and Al-Qatif. Results The study encompassed a total of 399 participants. The most commonly reported adverse effects among the first and second children were pain at the injection site (1st child: 267 (66.70%), second child: 263 (66.20%)) and fever (1st child: 171 (43.10%), second child: 187 (47.50%)). A significant proportion of the participants, specifically 139 individuals (35%), expressed apprehension regarding immunization. This concern stemmed from various factors, including the fear of experiencing adverse effects, skepticism regarding the vaccine's efficacy, and exposure to potentially harmful information about the vaccine. Ninety-nine participants, accounting for 25% of the sample, indicated their agreement with the safety of COVID-19. Additionally, 104 participants, constituting 26% of the sample, held the belief that receiving vaccination aids in the prevention of severe illnesses caused by COVID-19. Notably, the most prevalent reason for vaccine hesitancy among participants was the fear of experiencing adverse effects. A total of 132 individuals, accounting for 33% of the participants, identified healthcare providers, including physicians and scientists, as reliable and trustworthy sources of vaccine information. A statistically significant correlation was observed between the demographic variables of the participants and their acceptance of the vaccine. Conclusion The study observed an acceptable vaccination rate among children aged five to 12 for the COVID-19 vaccine. Based on the investigation results, the primary apprehension expressed by parents regarding the immunization of their offspring pertained to the potential negative consequences associated with the vaccine. Nonetheless, it was observed that adverse effects were reported in less than fifty percent of vaccinated children. Addressing the concerns pertaining to the COVID-19 vaccination can enhance global participation in the immunization program aimed at mitigating future pandemics.

Background and objectives: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most significant public health problems in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the impact of disease duration and disease complications on health-related quality of life among type 2 diabetic patients. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 380 adult diabetic type 2 patients at a tertiary hospital in the city of Khamis Mushit in Saudi Arabia. The participants were asked to complete a pre-validated health status questionnaire (SF-36) consisting of 36 questions measuring eight domains of health, with each domain providing a score from 0 to 100. Demographic and clinical variables were collected using a diabetes type 2 specification form designed to be used in conjunction with the health status questionnaire. The clinical data included variables such as duration of diabetes, co-morbidities, and treatment modality. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 22 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA), with differences tested using various statistical tests. Spearman correlation was done between the score and continuous variables, such as age and BMI. A p-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Most of the participants (40%) were recently diagnosed with diabetes mellitus (less than one year ago) and 29.5% of the participants were diagnosed with diabetes mellitus within one to five years. The percentage of those with complications was 39.2%, which was mainly diabetic foot (43.4%) followed by nephropathy (29.5%). 46.8% of the participants were admitted due to conditions related to diabetes mellitus. Dietary modifications were prescribed in 38.4% of the participants, 19.5% used non-insulin medications only, 22.6% were on insulin, and 19.5% were using oral medications and insulin. The relationship between diabetes mellitus complications and quality of life domains revealed no significant difference in most of the domains except physical function and general health, which were lower with complicated diabetes melitus. Similarly, the relation between diabetes mellitus duration and quality of life domains was also not significant in all domains except physical function, which was low with a duration of more than 10 years. Conclusions: Understandably, the complications associated with diabetes melitus resulted in low quality of life - in terms of physical function and general health - due to the organ-dysfunction associated with poor glycaemic control. Similarly, disease duration greater than 10 years resulted in impaired physical functioning.

Objective: The aim of this study is to ascertain the awareness and knowledge of physiotherapy among the general public in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Methodology: A cross-sectional survey using a self-administered questionnaire was constructed by the authors. The study was conducted between June and August 2018 where the questionnaire was planted online and invitation to participate in the study along with an explanation of its importance, and a link to the questionnaire was sent to individuals via various social media platforms.
Results: A total of 964 participants comprising 77% female and 23% women participated in the study. They were aged between 18-45 and majority of the participants were Saudi nationals (94%) while 5% were expats. Overall majority of the participants lacked knowledge the other aspects of physical therapy (PT) services available to patients other than the musculoskeletal problems. The current study highlights not only the lack of public awareness about PT as a professional and its scope of practice in KSA, but it also provides a food for thought on the future development of the professional development in the kingdom.
Conclusion: Lack of awareness and knowledge regarding PT services may hamper the effective and timely referral of patients and there is an urgent need for the health care policy makers and institutions to promote education about the various aspects of PT so that there can be a proactive healthcare facility in line with the government’s 2030 vision of making healthcare efficient.
