Latvijas farmaceitu un farmācijas speciālistu viedoklis par papildpakalpojumu lomu farmaceitiskajā aprūpē
2020
Farmaceitiskā aprūpe balstās uz attiecībām starp pacientu un veselības aprūpes sniedzējiem, kuri uzņemas atbildību par pacienta aprūpes nodrošināšanu. Farmaceitiskā aprūpe nozīmē gan pacienta, gan veselības aprūpes sniedzēja aktīvu līdzdalību lēmumu pieņemšanā par zāļu terapiju. Farmaceitiskā aprūpe ietver medikamentu izsniegšanu, nodrošina informāciju par zālēm, pacientu konsultēšanu, zāļu uzraudzību, zāļu blakusparādību uzraudzību un zāļu saskaņošanu. Mūsdienās arvien biežāk ir sastopami dažādi papildus pakalpojumi, ko aptiekas piedāvā saviem pacientiem, ar mērķi piesaistīt klientus un veicināt pacienta-farmaceita attiecību uzlabošanu, kā arī nodrošināt maksimāli kvalitatīvu pacientu vaja…
Eiropas Savienības dalībvalsts Konstitucionālās tiesas tiesības atzīt Eiropas Savienības tiesas spriedumu par spēkā neesošu savā teritorijā
2021
Eiropas Savienības tiesisko stabilitāti 2020.gadā satricināja nebijis precedents –Apvienotās Karalistes izstāšanās no Savienības. Savienības turpmākās pastāvēšanas jautājumi kļuva arvien aktuālāki, spilgtāk iezīmējot jau esošās domstarpības starp dalībvalstu un Savienības interesēm. Fundaments, kas satur Savienību kopā, pamatā atspoguļojas Savienības tiesībās un to piemērošanā. Tomēr, pamanāma ir kļuvusi arī šī fundamenta šķelšana, dalībvalstīm pakāpeniski ievirzot tendenci Eiropas Savienības Tiesas kompetences apšaubīšanā. 2020.gada, vienu no spilgtākajiem tiesu precedentiem, raksturo Vācijas Konstitucionālās tiesas spriedums, ar kuru Eiropas Savienības Tiesas nolēmums atzīts par spēkā nee…
Ekstemporālās receptūras aktualitāte mazpilsētas aptiekā
2020
Latvijā ne tikai lielajās pilsētās ārsti izraksta ekstemporālās zāļu formas, bet arī mazpilsētās, kurās notiek zāļu gatavošana aptiekās. Visbiežākais iemesls, kāpēc ārsti izraksta aptiekā izgatavojamās zāļu formas ir, lai varētu konkrētam pacientam izrakstīt vispiemērotākās un efektīvākās zāles attiecīgajai ārstēšanai. Darba mērķis bija apkopot, izanalizēt un aprakstīt gada griezumā ekstemporālo zāļu formu apriti un izrakstīšanas tendences atkarībā pēc ārsta specialitātes, pacienta vecuma un dzimuma, kā arī uzzināt farmaceitu un pacientu viedokli par ekstemporālo receptūru. Noskaidrots, ka 2019.gadā 209 receptēs bija izrakstītas 6 dažādas zāļu formas no 7 dažādu specialitāšu ārstiem. Piepra…
Prediction of type 2 diabetes mellitus based on nutrition data
2021
Abstract Numerous predictive models for the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) exist, but a minority of them has implemented nutrition data so far, even though the significant effect of nutrition on the pathogenesis, prevention and management of T2DM has been established. Thus, in the present study, we aimed to build a predictive model for the risk of T2DM that incorporates nutrition data and calculates its predictive performance. We analysed cross-sectional data from 1591 individuals from the population-based Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA) FF4 study (2013–14) and used a bootstrap enhanced elastic net penalised multivariate regression method in order to bu…
Impact of Perceived Stress and Immune Status on Decision-Making Abilities during COVID-19 Pandemic Lockdown.
2021
The ability to make risky decisions in stressful contexts has been largely investigated in experimental settings. We examined this ability during the first months of COVID-19 pandemic, when in Italy people were exposed to a prolonged stress condition, mainly caused by a rigid lockdown. Participants among the general population completed two cognitive tasks, an Iowa Gambling Task (IGT), which measures individual risk/reward decision-making tendencies, and a Go/No-Go task (GNG), to test impulsivity, together with two questionnaires, the Perceived Stress Scale and the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales. The Immune Status Questionnaire was additionally administered to explore the impact of t…
RF-Based Location Using Interpolation Functions to Reduce Fingerprint Mapping
2015
Indoor RF-based localization using fingerprint mapping requires an initial training step, which represents a time consuming process. This location methodology needs a database conformed with RSSI (Radio Signal Strength Indicator) measures from the communication transceivers taken at specific locations within the localization area. But, the real world localization environment is dynamic and it is necessary to rebuild the fingerprint database when some environmental changes are made. This paper explores the use of different interpolation functions to complete the fingerprint mapping needed to achieve the sought accuracy, thereby reducing the effort in the training step. Also, different distri…
Tracking Mobile Robot in Indoor Wireless Sensor Networks
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://10.1155/2014/837050 This work addresses the problem of tracking mobile robots in indoor wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Our approach is based on a localization scheme with RSSI (received signal strength indication) which is used widely in WSN. The developed tracking system is designed for continuous estimation of the robot's trajectory. A WSN, which is composed of many very simple and cheap wireless sensor nodes, is deployed at a specific region of interest. The wireless sensor nodes collect RSSI information sent by mobile robots. A range-based data fusion sche…
Experimental investigation on PLC signal crossing of power transformers
2014
In this work the use of PLC in MV-LV networks is investigated, by means of experimental tests in the case of a two-ways MV/LV communication between two secondary substations. The two substations are connected by a MV overhead power line. Moreover each substation has a by-pass connection at MV bus-bars and a MV/LV power transformer. A ST7580 transceiver is used to inject the communication signal. The transceiver is embedded in a new interface device developed by the authors. In the paper the communication issues are introduced and some experimental tests are presented and discussed. Such tests have been carried out in the presence of voltage net, i.e. 24 kV, with the aim to verify the possib…
A New Low Cost Coupling System for Power Line Communication on Medium Voltage Smart Grids
2018
This paper proposes and verifies the performance of an innovative and low cost coupling system for power line communication (PLC) on medium voltage (MV) smart grids. The coupling system makes use of the capacitive divider of the voltage detecting systems (VDSs) to inject and receive the PLC signal. VDS are usually already installed in the MV switchboards of the major electrical manufacturer all over the world according to IEC 61243-5. VDS are used to detect the presence of the mains voltage to guarantee personnel safety. An interface circuit has been developed to be connected between the PLC transceiver and the VDS socket. In this way, the PLC signal can be coupled to the MV network without…
Uncertainty estimation of a complex water quality model: The influence of Box–Cox transformation on Bayesian approaches and comparison with a non-Bay…
2012
Abstract In urban drainage modelling, uncertainty analysis is of undoubted necessity. However, uncertainty analysis in urban water-quality modelling is still in its infancy and only few studies have been carried out. Therefore, several methodological aspects still need to be experienced and clarified especially regarding water quality modelling. The use of the Bayesian approach for uncertainty analysis has been stimulated by its rigorous theoretical framework and by the possibility of evaluating the impact of new knowledge on the modelling predictions. Nevertheless, the Bayesian approach relies on some restrictive hypotheses that are not present in less formal methods like the Generalised L…
