Abstract
Blood lead levels (BLL) in women of child-bearing age have been decreasing in recent decades, but still remains a concern for
long-term effects of child psychomotor development. The aim of the study was to characterize lead exposure among Polish
pregnant women and assess the relationship between BLL and selected socio-demographic, economic and lifestyle factors.
The study population consisted of 594 pregnant women who had been the subjects of the prospective Polish Mother and
Child Cohort Study (REPRO_PL). The women were interviewed three times during pregnancy (once in each trimester). Lead
concentration in the blood collected during the second trimester of pregnancy was analyzed using graphite furnace atomic
absorption spectrome.

Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases.

1. END OF LIFE CARE
COMMITTEE
Newsletter Volume 1, January 2014
In 2013, 52 infants and children died in OLCHC. This represents 0.5% of our inpatient population. A further
52 children who were patients of OLCHC died at home or in another hospital.
The End of Life Care Committee was established to promote and guide good practice in end of life care for
these children and their families. The Committee is required as best practice as outlined in the HFH Quality
Standards for End of Life Care in Hospitals (2010).
Plans for 2014
In 2014, the EOLC Committee will undertake
some projects to enhance end of life care for
children and families in OLCHC.
• Review of the content of the EOLC Resource
Folder – it is intended to change the document to
an electronic version which will be available on
the Intranet. Hard copies of forms and algorithms
will still be available the EOLC folder in all clinical
areas.
• Self Assessment of the hospital against the
Quality Standards for End of Life Care
End of Life Care Symbol
This sign was developed by the Hospice Friendly Hospitals Programme to
be a universally recognised symbol of end of life. The symbol is inspired
by ancient Irish history and is not associated with any one religion or
denomination. The 3-stranded white spiral represents the interconnected
cycle of life – birth, life and death. The white outer circle represents
continuity, infinity and completion. Purple is the background colour as it is
associated with nobility, solemnity and spirituality.
The symbol communicates to staff and visitors that a patient is dying or
has died. The symbol guides people to create an atmosphere of quiet
where people are respectful, avoid mobile phone use and are aware that
they may meet people who are grieving. This sign should be displayed
where it is visible on the ward or unit.
Copies are available in the EOLC Folders in all departments. Additional
copies can be obtained from Carol Hilliard 2884 or
