Medisinsk avstandsoppfølging for pasienter med epilepsi : En kvalitativ studie om pasienter med epilepsi sine opplevelser, erfaringer og tanker om ny…
2020
Master's thesis in Health informatics (HSI500) Background There is an increasing focus on the use of medical distance monitoring to improve the quality of patient care and increase the effectiveness of health care. Digital PRO-based solution is a new service for patients with epilepsy. The digital form the patient fills out is used as the basis for outpatient follow-up. Purpose The purpose of this study is to contribute knowledge to whether patients with epilepsy experience benefits of medical distance monitoring. The problem statement in the study was: "What experiences and thoughts do patients with epilepsy have about the utility of medical distance follow-up?" Selection and methodologyTh…
Fastlegers informasjonsbehov ved medisinsk avstandsoppfølging : En kvalitativ studie
2019
Masteroppgave helse- og sosialinformatikk HSI500 - Universitetet i Agder 2019 Bakgrunn:For å møte den fremtidige økningen i forekomsten av ikke-smittsomme kroniske sykdommerhar Norge prøvd utmedisinsk avstandsoppfølging siden2016. Resultatene så langt viser en økt trygghet, samt følelse av oppfølging og kontroll over egen helse hos pasientene. Det understrekes at det å involvere fastleger i tjenestene har vært utfordrende(Helsedirektoratet, 2018a). Videreutprøvingble startet opp i 2018 og er planlagt å fortsette til og med2021. Hensikt:Formålet med denne masteroppgaven er å bidra med kunnskap om hvordan IKT best mulig kan understøtte fastlegenes tiltenkte rolle som koordinator i medisinsk a…

En la comunicación se presentan los resultados de las excavaciones en el abrigo de La Calvera (Camaleño, Cantabria) incluyendo un conjunto de nuevas dataciones radiocarbónicas y se hace una reflexión sobre la ocupación de las montañas cantábricas al comienzo del Holoceno. In the communication the results of the excavations in La Calvera rock shelter (Camaleño, Cantabria) are presented, including a set of new radiocarbonic dates and a reflection is made on the occupation of the Cantabrian mountains at the beginning of the Holocene.
Tuberculosis among Migrant Populations in Sicily: A Field Report
2021
Background. In the EU, tuberculosis (TB) mainly affects vulnerable people, including migrants. From 2014 to 2017, we have estimated the frequency of both tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) among the migrant population hosted in 41 reception centers in western Sicily (ITaCA network). Materials and Methods. All migrants were consecutively recruited for the screening of TB infection with physical examination and TST in 1,020 migrants and with IGRA in the others 2,690. The screening was carried out 4–8 weeks after landing in Sicily. For all migrants with a positive screening test, chest X-ray and smear examination were performed. LTBI was defined by positivity of TST or IGRA …
Localization of Multi-Class On-Road and Aerial Targets Using mmWave FMCW Radar
2021
mmWave radars play a vital role in autonomous systems, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), ground station control and monitoring systems. The challenging task when using mmWave radars is to estimate the accurate angle of arrival (AoA) of the targets, due to the limited number of receivers. In this paper, we present a novel AoA estimation technique, using mmWave FMCW radars operating in the frequency range 77–81 GHz by utilizing the mechanical rotation. Rotating the radar also increases the field of view in both azimuth and elevation. The proposed method estimates the AoA of the targets, using only a single transmitter and receiver. The measurements are…
Tapology: A Game-Based Platform to Facilitate E-Health and E-Inclusion
2014
Published version of a chapter in the book: Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Aging and Assistive Environments. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-07446-7_36 We have developed a tablet computer game app for low vision users that can be used to introduce a platform for gaming, internet and visual rehabilitation to older users who have not had prior experience with information communication technology (ICT). Our target user group is people diagnosed with Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). The primary goal of the app is to present a fun and engaging means for participants to engage with Information Communication Technology (ICT). A long…
Hvilke faktorer kan forklare ansattes bruk av sikkerhetstiltak på mobile enheternår de er ute på farten?
2018
Masteroppgave informasjonssystemer IS501 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Kontekst:Brukeren er ofte omtalt som den største trusselen motinformasjonssikkerhet i virksomheter. I dag bruker de flesteen eller fleremobile enheter på jobben. Sammen med mobile enheter kommer også nye farer knyttet til informasjonssikkerhet,ogdet er derfor svært viktig at ansatte bruker anbefalte sikkerhetstiltaknår de erpå jobben, men også utenfor virksomheten.Målet med studien er å analyserehvilkefaktorersomkan forklare bruk av sikkerhetstiltakpå mobile enheterutenfor organisatoriske rammer («ute på farten»).

An Exact Solution for the Level-Crossing Rate and the Average Duration of Fades of the Envelope of Sum-of-Cisoids Processes
2012
Authors version of an article published in the journal: Procedia Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.protcy.2012.03.004 Sum-of-cisoids (SOC) processes provide a physically and numerically appealing framework for the modelling and simulation of a wide class of mobile radio channels. This paper is concerned with the problem of finding a general solution for the level-crossing rate (LCR) and the average duration of fades (ADF) of the envelope of SOC processes. Exact expressions are derived for the LCR and the ADF by taking into account that the inphase component, the quadrature component, and the time derivatives of the inphase and quadrature component…

2018
Masteroppgave i helse- og sosialinformatikk HSI500 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Adverse events can be avoided by timely recognition of derangements in vital signs. Sørlandet Hospital HF (SSHF) has implemented an Early Warning Score System named "TILT"; 2Early identification of life-threatening conditions”. In 2017 SSHF started a project that tested wireless sensors for continuous monitoring of vital signs on wards. Patients were monitored by sensors and vital signs were also measured by traditional means during the project period. The aim of this study was to examine compliance with the vital signs monitoring protocol, and to examine the benefits of an electronic system. The following quest…
