Building an advocacy model to improve the dementia-capability of health plans in California
2021
Background Given the high and growing prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, and the intensity of this population's care needs, it is imperative that healthcare systems increase their capacity to effectively serve people living with dementia (PLwD). The Dementia Cal MediConnect (Dementia CMC) project proposes an advocacy model that may foster dementia-capable systems change. Methods The Dementia CMC project was a 5-year partnership (2013-2018) between local Alzheimer's organizations and 10 managed care health plans (HPs) in California's duals demonstration. It used an advocacy model with the following steps: (1) Identify dementia-capable best practices to set as systems ch…
Capital social i xarxes relacionals en els processos de creació de conexement i innovació
2010
Fa aproximadament dues dècades, el concepte de capital social va ser integrat al debat i discurs sobre el desenvolupament, en termes d'un actiu de cooperació, reciprocitat i confiança, present en normes i valors, i en les relacions socials de certs grups. El concepte de capital social guarda relació amb la necessitat d'aprehendre en un sol concepte un conjunt de dimensions de la interacció col·lectiva, en les quals els individus s'han de situar a fi d'estructurar una interacció amb sentit i establir-se com a persones en la trama de normes i valors morals que constitueixen i construeixen la comunitat i la societat que es viu. Així, doncs, el capital social de forma implícita porta associada …

“Team Based Learning” in Political Science studies
2019
En los estudios de Ciencia Política ha predominado tradicionalmente la metodología basada en la clase magistral y el trabajo individual. Sin embargo, la implantación del sistema de Bolonia implica un trabajo más autónomo de los estudiantes y el desarrollo de nuevas habilidades como el trabajo en grupo. Desde esta perspectiva, se ha aplicado una nueva metodología denominada Aprendizaje Basado en Grupos (TBL de sus siglas en inglés) a un grupo de 100 alumnos de Ciencia Política y se la ha comparado con otros tres métodos también utilizados por los mismos estudiantes en otras asignaturas del grado (práctica semanal, trabajo semestral y Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas). El objetivo del trabajo …

Palermo: ricerca scientifica e sostenibilità per la social innovation
2016
Nonostante le mancanze strutturali e i risultati negativi osservati attraverso l’analisi degli indicatori statistici sulla smartness, specialmente nel confronto con i risultati alla scala nazionale, la Città Metropolitana di Palermo sembra essere interessata da una sempre crescente consapevolezza sul tema della Smart City. Anche se attualmente manca una cornice governativa che coordini il mosaico di iniziative portate avanti in vari campi della smartness, il bisogno e la volontà di andare verso lo sviluppo di una città più intelligente stanno attivando e richiamando all’azione sia le istituzioni - come l’Università, gli organismi di governo locale e gli istituti di ricerca - che le associaz…
The role of civil society organisations in European responsible research and innovation
2018
EC policy reveals a strong conviction that CSO’s main function in EU-funded research and innovation projects is to take care of the ‘societal perspective’, which would not be adequately represented otherwise. With this, CSOs are supposed to be the main advocates of RRI in project consortia and are supported by all kinds of EC policy measures to fulfil this role. This conviction is not only problematic due to definition problems concerning CSO as such. Empirical data about the role of CSOs in high-tech/high-innovation research projects and the distribution of RRI activities among consortia members reveal that the role of CSOs is much more multi-faceted (data providers, providers of access to…
Intramuscular tranexamic acid

For many anaesthetists around the world, the mere mention of the word ‘pharmacokinetics’ is sufficient to make their eyes glaze over and their attention wander. Pharmacokinetics is seen as an art that is as obscure and esoteric as the art of divination (prediction) practiced by the likes of Professor Sybille Trelawny 1 but that has varying and mostly limited relevance to clinical practice. Although this hyperbole may have elements of truth, it is a fact that pharmacokinetic data are the essential foundation upon which rational drug dosing guidelines are developed for all drugs.
