Alert 2017 lopreiato - a handover osce to measure skills in transitions of ...
The document summarizes a study that used a handover OSCE (objective structured clinical examination) station to measure the handover skills of pediatric interns. Over three years, 126 interns participated in the handover OSCE, which assessed their performance on a 10-item scale. Results showed improvements over time, with interns scoring higher on domains like patient summary, action lists, and contingency planning. The study aims to continue data collection and analysis, with the goal of presenting results at a conference in June 2017.
Clinical Informatics: Education, Experience, Expectations
Britt Ritter is pursuing a graduate certificate in clinical informatics while working as a clinical pharmacy specialist and professor. She completed a practicum evaluating an electronic health record system at UNC hospitals. This experience reinforced lessons from her informatics coursework and demonstrated how informatics applies to patient care and pharmacy practice. Ritter believes informatics knowledge will be increasingly important for pharmacists as health data and technology advance.
New ALERT - Latent Safety Threats in Critical Care Transport
This document discusses a proposed study to use in situ simulations to detect latent safety threats in the process of critical care transport. There is significant variability in transport systems and most rely on consultation with a medical control physician, but it is unclear if definitive treatment is enhanced or impeded by care at the referring institution. The study would use in situ simulations with standardized scenarios to evaluate medical control from the emergency department versus intensive care unit and look at regional variations. The goals would be to identify latent safety threats, errors of omission, and errors of commission between transport with medical control consultation versus referral without consultation.

The document discusses a study measuring the impact of programs for orphans and vulnerable children. It implemented targeted evaluations of five such programs across two countries using a post-test only design to compare outcomes between intervention and comparison groups. The study examined outcomes across several areas like education, health, and psychosocial well-being. Stakeholders were involved throughout to ensure relevance and utility. The findings are expected to provide insights into how program interventions benefit children and what it costs to make a difference in their lives.
Supporting HIV/AIDS Research and Surveillance
The document summarizes MEASURE Evaluation's support for HIV/AIDS research and surveillance in Nigeria. It discusses how MEASURE Evaluation conducted an assessment of Nigeria's HIV M&E system in 2009, identified gaps, and has since contributed in several ways, including developing a national HIV research agenda, providing technical support for surveys, using models to estimate HIV indicators, building government staff capacity, and supporting impact evaluations. Next steps include further building research capacity and strengthening the use of data for evidence-based programming.
New ALERT - Biometric parameters of Critical Care Practitioners using Hexoskin
This study aims to measure biometric parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and calorie expenditure of pediatric critical care physicians in simulated stressful environments using a wearable tracking device. Physicians will participate in simulations with and without viewing their real-time biometrics to see if biofeedback can alter their physiological responses. Data collection is underway with simulations completed on 7 subjects so far. The goals are to get feedback on improving the simulation experience and continue data collection and analysis to understand the effects of biofeedback on physician stress levels.

Role of data analytics in educational industry
Educational institutions are collecting large amounts of data but not effectively using it. Data analytics can help institutions increase profits, reduce dropout rates, and gain competitive advantages by better understanding student performance, identifying at-risk students, and tailoring education to individual needs. Analyzing academic, financial, and operational data through data analytics allows for targeted strategies, performance management, personalized education, and improved curriculum. This helps schools achieve goals of customizing learning and personalizing instruction for each student.
ESSA_2016_FC_Poster_FINAL
The document summarizes the process of implementing an integrated electronic health record (IEHR) system in a university exercise physiology teaching clinic. Key steps included procuring practice management software with IEHR capabilities, developing condition-specific protocols, designing clinical interfaces, and configuring the system for data entry via questionnaires and during consultations. Interviews found that staff and students perceived more advantages than disadvantages to adopting IEHR, such as improved patient care, progress tracking, and the ability to engage in research. The new system aims to enhance student learning and patient outcomes by allowing access to health information and progress data.
New ALERT - PALS-on-Demand in Skill Training
This document summarizes a proposed study to evaluate the efficacy of pediatric resuscitation quality improvement (Peds-RQI) cart training for two-person CPR with and without instructors. The study hypothesizes that skill performance scores of providers trained every 2 months without instructors will not be inferior to those trained with instructors, but the proportion meeting excellence criteria will be smaller without instructors. The randomized controlled trial will assess baseline two-person CPR skills, provide initial and booster trainings with the Peds-RQI cart every 3 months, and evaluate skill competence and excellence after 9 months. The goals are to refine the study protocol at a conference, submit to IRB within 2 months, and pilot
Taking advantage of openness: understanding the variety of perspectives on op...
There has been considerable coverage of the growth of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) that give free access to courses that have familiar structures. However, there are many other ways in which Open Educational Resources are being used and influencing education. In the OER Research Hub we have worked across educational sectors looking at ways that OER are being adopted and used. In this paper we step back from some of the detailed work with collaborating projects to consider their different motivations and shared challenges. The case studies show how openness acts as inspiration, however the impact of openness can be harder to see. Our survey data is showing how open aspects can seem less important as projects seek to build to broad engagement, and that aims of widening access are challenged by findings that open education appeals to those who already have existing confidence and experience. The actions of the collaborating partners seek to address these issues for example through courses that help develop understanding of openness and by understanding the groups that they serve who have special needs.

This document proposes a study to compare the effectiveness of a modular pediatric resuscitation improvement program (PRIP) to a pediatric care coordinator (PECC) alone at improving pediatric resuscitation quality in community emergency departments. The study would involve cluster randomization of EDs to either receive the PRIP intervention or act as controls with a PECC. Outcomes would include composite quality scores measured through in-situ simulations, chart review scores, and pediatric readiness survey scores. The goal is to develop and test a low-cost PRIP to help PECCs improve pediatric emergency care.
Analytics in Action - Health
The document discusses how healthcare organizations are increasingly relying on data analytics and data scientists. It notes that while analytics can help improve patient care and reduce costs, the healthcare industry lags behind other sectors in adopting new technologies and analyzing data due to privacy concerns and differences in prioritizing risks. The document outlines some current uses of analytics including clinical decision support, fraud detection, and personalized treatment plans. It also explores challenges to wider adoption such as establishing standards and gaining access to data.
Iblc10 making an existing assessment more efficient
1. The document describes changes made to a peer assessment process for a university biology laboratory report to make it more efficient.
2. Previously, peer assessment involved in-class paper marking but this resulted in high moderation needs and workload.
3. For 2009-2010, an online system was introduced where students entered marks using a standardized form and completed a web-based reflection questionnaire.
4. The new system saved an estimated 25-30 hours of staff time needed for moderation while still engaging students in peer learning and feedback.
New ALERT - Improving Neonatal LP success rates through Positioning
This document summarizes a proposed study to improve success rates of neonatal lumbar punctures through different patient positioning. The study would randomize interns to perform lumbar punctures starting in either a seated or lateral decubitus position, switching every 3 months. Data on attempts, success rates, and adverse events would be collected and analyzed to determine if one position leads to better outcomes. Feedback is sought on aspects of the study design like randomization approach and timeline for position switching. The goals are to get feedback to improve the study for IRB approval and submission within the next 2 months.

Data collected
The document contains data from a survey of children about a project they completed. The survey included questions about whether they enjoyed the project, what they enjoyed most, how challenging it was, what was most difficult, what skills they learned, and whether they want to do more projects. The data is presented in bar graphs showing the number of children who selected each response option for each multiple choice question.
Examples of stereotypes in T.V drama
The document lists common stereotypes associated with various social groups. For gender, men are often portrayed as strong, capable and dominant while women are weak, overly sexualized and submissive. Younger people may be seen as rebellious or troubled while older people are depicted as inferior. Ethnic stereotypes include white people as superior, Asians as intelligent but nerdy, Middle Easterners as terrorists, blacks as criminals, and Indians as traditional and lacking technology. Those with disabilities are frequently considered broken or outcasts while the able-bodied are seen as perfect. Sexual orientation stereotypes characterize gay men as feminine and lesbians as masculine. Class stereotypes portray the upper class as rich and superior, the middle class as

It also covers the HL7 development framework methodology, modeling with the unified modeling language, and examples of use case diagrams and class diagrams for domain analysis modeling.
Lecture 10 primary data collection interviews
This document discusses different methods for collecting primary data through interviews, including structured, semi-structured, and unstructured interviews. It addresses the appropriate uses of each type of interview based on the research purpose and strategy. It also covers important considerations for interview quality such as data reliability and validity, preparation, interviewer competence, and addressing potential issues that may arise during the interview process.
One-Sample Hypothesis Tests
A researcher tested the effectiveness of an herbal supplement on physical fitness using the Marine Physical Fitness Test. 25 college students took the supplement for 6 weeks and averaged a score of 38.68 on the test, compared to the average population score of 35. Using a t-test with α=.05 and df=24, the researcher found the average score of 38.68 was not significantly different than the population mean of 35 (t=2.041, p=.052). Therefore, there is not enough evidence to conclude the supplement had an effect on fitness levels, as the higher average score could be due to chance for this small sample.
pandas: Powerful data analysis tools for Python
Wes McKinney introduced pandas, a Python data analysis library built on NumPy. Pandas provides data structures and tools for cleaning, manipulating, and working with relational and time-series data. Key features include DataFrame for 2D data, hierarchical indexing, merging and joining data, and grouping and aggregating data. Pandas is used heavily in financial applications and has over 1500 unit tests, ensuring stability and reliability. Future goals include better time series handling and integration with other Python data science packages.
Rm 5 Methods Of Data Collection
The document discusses different methods of collecting primary and secondary data. It describes primary data collection methods such as observation, interviews using questionnaires/schedules, and surveys. It provides details on structured vs unstructured observation, participant vs non-participant observation, and structured vs unstructured interviews. It also discusses advantages and limitations of interviews and questionnaires. Secondary data collection involves obtaining published data from various sources such as government publications, books, reports, and public records. When using secondary data, the researcher must evaluate the reliability, suitability, and adequacy of the data.
Methods of data collection
Data are numerical facts collected systematically for research purposes. Economists study phenomena and draw conclusions from collected data. There are two main sources of information: primary and secondary data. Primary data involves collecting original data directly from sources for a specific research purpose, such as through observation, interviews, questionnaires, or schedules. Secondary data refers to data that was originally collected by someone else for another purpose and has been published, such as government publications, journals, or reports.

Differentiated instruction presentation
This document discusses differentiated instruction for teaching mixed-ability classrooms. It begins by comparing differentiated instruction to teaching in a one-room schoolhouse. It then defines what differentiated instruction is and is not, emphasizing that it is a blend of whole group, small group, and individual instruction that is qualitative and adapts assignments based on student differences in readiness, interests, and learning needs. It also provides examples of classroom setup and management strategies to facilitate differentiated instruction.
Joao Garcia BMB 2010 Presentation
This document discusses securitization in Brazil and makes three main points:
1) It outlines some of the key characteristics of investing in Brazil, including its large population and economy focused on materials and energy, as well as high past returns and growth potential in consumer spending.
2) It describes Brazil's housing market and government programs aimed at financing over 4 million homes for low-income citizens between 2010-2020.
3) It analyzes securitization from the perspectives of originating banks, investors, and the overall economy. Banks benefit from reducing capital requirements and investors from diversification, while securitization can increase housing availability and overall economic activity.
000267 pterygium and_topical_bevacizumab
Topical bevacizumab in combination with flurbiprofen eye drops and punctal occlusion for 4 weeks after pterygium excision and conjunctival autograft showed no recurrence of pterygium in any of the 17 patients over a 2 year follow up period. No patients experienced any ocular or systemic side effects from the topical bevacizumab treatment. This prospective case series suggests that topical bevacizumab may be a safe and effective adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence of primary pterygium after surgery.

Here are some issues with the objectives and research questions:
- The objectives are not specific enough and focus more on methods rather than the purpose of the research.
- The questions make assumptions that community beliefs are "wrong" rather than trying to understand perspectives.
- Questions 1.1 and 1.2 for the formative research objective are too leading and specific rather than open-ended to understand barriers.
- Objective 2 aims to "prove" effectiveness rather than objectively measure impact, and the questions only measure outcomes rather than factors influencing them.
The objectives and questions should be more open-ended, focus on understanding rather than proving assumptions, and aim to inform program improvement rather than prove effectiveness.

PSI Diarrhea Prevention and Safe Water Approaches
Unsafe water and lack of sanitation are major global problems, contributing to over 1.5 million child deaths from diarrhea each year. Household water treatment (HWT) options like sodium hypochlorite, Aquatabs, and PUR can provide low-cost solutions, treating water for a family of 6 for less than a penny per day. Social marketing approaches that combine communications and product access have helped programs in over 30 countries treat over 60 billion liters of water, improving health behaviors and reducing diarrhea prevalence in places like Madagascar. Lessons show that focusing on key behavior drivers, partnerships, and multiple communication channels can enable HWT to effectively and affordably scale up safe water access.

Boosting Nutrition Impact via Integrated Program Strategies
The document summarizes an integrated nutrition program in Bangladesh called Jibon o Jibika that targeted 200,000 children under age 2. It showed that reducing undernutrition was more effective when all program components, such as food production, marketing, health, water and sanitation, were implemented together. Stunting, wasting, and being underweight declined more in areas where all components worked together. Dietary diversity and income also increased more in integrated areas. The document discusses proven interventions to reduce undernutrition and calls for more evidence on how best to integrate different sector approaches, prioritize interventions, and strengthen programs targeting mothers and children under age 2.

The document summarizes a community-directed intervention project in Nigeria to improve malaria control among pregnant women. Key points:
- The project trained community volunteers to provide intermittent preventive treatment (IPTp) and insecticide-treated bednets in their communities, in addition to clinic services. This increased access to malaria prevention and treatment.
- Evaluation found higher uptake of IPTp and bednets in intervention areas compared to control areas relying solely on clinics. However, stockouts of commodities and user fees reduced impact.
- Community involvement through volunteers was effective but regular support is needed. Advocacy is also key to ensure free services and continuous supply of medicines and bednets.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
