  • Abstract

Abstract
The global burden of surgical disease is steadily increasing, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries as many move through the epidemiological transition away from communicable towards non-communicable diseases. Yet, little is known about the personnel's skills to manage these surgical emergencies in our country. The main goal of this study was to assess the level of knowledge and clinical practice of health personnel's regarding surgical emergencies in the emergency unit of the hospitals of study. As such, a survey questionnaire for data collection was addressed to the personnel of the two hospitals.
The study carried out was a prospective study with four months of data collection. We used the software Sphinx Plus to elaborate the survey questionnaire, to introduce collected data and generate obtained results. Results obtained reveals that, 92.3% of the personnel never had a training session on the management of surgical emergencies. Moreover, the two hospitals had no tool of assessment of the state of gravity of patients so as to proceed to a sorting process depending on the seriousness of the lesions. Also, out of the 88.57% of the personnel who participated to this design study, only 15.38% of them had a professional experience of 5 years and above.
In conclusion, the knowledge of the personnel of the hospitals of study concerning the management of surgical emergencies remains insufficient. Health workers of the emergency unit should be provided with refresher courses to keep them updated and informed with the evolution of surgical procedures, equipment and technologies. If these challenges are managed properly, then the regional and protestant emergency department services will improve its care provision.
