Assessment of Factors Associated with Prehospital Delay of Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
...Show More Authors

Objective(s): to assess the factors which are associated with the prolonged prehospital delay of patients with
acute myocardial infarction.
Methodology: A descriptive study was conducted at the Coronary Care unit (CCU) in Al-Yarmok Teaching
Hospital, Ibn AL-Nafis Hospital for Cardiovascular Diseases, AL-Kadumia Teaching Hospital, Baghdad Teaching
Hospital, and AL-Kindy Teaching Hospital during the period of the study from February 2
nd
, 2009 to October 30th
,
2009. A random sample of (160) paƟent who were admiƩed to the hospitals were selected one by one. A
questionnaire was constructed for the purpose of the study, which is comprised of four parts that include (1)
sociodemographic data; (2) prehospital delay time was measured as the time which passed from the moment
when the patient feels the first symptoms "chest pain" until his arrival to the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) (3)
clinical data; (4) factors associated with the prolonged prehospital delay. The data were collected by the
application of the questionnaire, the interview technique, observation and the patients' sheets.
Results: The study findings indicated that the low percentage of the patients with myocardial infarction used an
ambulance (3; 1.9%) and the remaining (157; 98%) arrived at hospitals by self-transport. It is concluded that a
large proportion of Iraqi patients did not call for an ambulance after the onset of ST–Elevation Myocardial
Infarction (STEMI) symptoms.
Recommendations: The study recommends that the public should be educated that an ambulance is not merely
a transportation modality, but also a means of providing early diagnosis and treatment.

Robustness Assessment of Regional GNSS Geodetic Networks for Precise Applications
...Show More Authors

Over the past few decades, the surveying fieldworks were usually carried out based on classical positioning methods for establishing horizontal and vertical geodetic networks. However, these conventional positioning techniques have many drawbacks such as time-consuming, too costly, and require massive effort. Thus, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has been invented to fulfill the quickness, increase the accuracy, and overcome all the difficulties inherent in almost every surveying fieldwork. This research assesses the accuracy of local geodetic networks using different Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) techniques, such as Static, Precise Point Positioning, Post Processing Kinematic, Session method, a
