Setting standards and implementing quality improvement in trauma care
1996
Setting standards and implementing quality improvement in trauma care needs consideration of the definitions of standards, guidelines, recommendations and the present quality of trauma care. Essential factors for consideration are the chain of survival and different intervals which may decide on patient outcome: (a) the trauma (occurrence) to trauma recognition interval which has, until now, not been taken into consideration with regard to morbidity and mortality; (b) the scene time is part of the total prehospital time which comprises rescuing the entrapped patient, preparation of the patient for treatment, and transfer to a rescue vehicle. The medical part of the scene time, however, repr…

Multiplicity, Overtaking and Convergence in the Lucas Two-Sector Growth Model
2002
This paper provides the complete closed-form solution to the Lucas two-sector model of endogenous growth. We study the issues of existence, unique-ness, multiplicity, positivity, transitional dynamics and long-run growth, re-lated to the competitive equilibrium paths. We identify the parameter range where the different results hold and deduce the entire trajectories for the original variables. We revise the results on convergence and overtaking which arise from this model, and prove that the parameterization currently used as the background for an explanation of economic miracles and disasters, is not satisfactory because of its counterintuitive implications.
The links between smart specialisation strategy, the quintuple helix model and living labs
2018
This paper analyzes how the Living Labs can be designed as tools for a more effective implementation of the Smart Specialisation Strategy (S3) within the Quintuple Helix Model. Above all, the Quintuple Helix espouses the formation of a constructive situation encompassing ecology, knowledge and innovation, and creating extensive synergy between economy, society, and democracy. In this paper, we shall be focusing on the Quintuple Helix and Living Labs geared towards creating a shared arena in which services, processes and new ways of working via technology can be developed and tested with user representatives and researchers. Since the Living Lab is a rather new research area, the number of s…
Sensing and Generating New Opportunities for Value Innovation: How Team Behaviour Contributes to Success or to Failure?
2017
The behavioral side of the decision process inherent to strategy is an issue that is gaining attention from both academic and practitioners. At the same time, the Schumpeterian conception of innovation, returns to gain relevance in an environment where technology leads to process dematerialization and exponential paths of change. In this context, this paper analyses which decision processes, cognitive abilities and heuristics lead to sense and generate value innovation for customers. The analysis of 26 master student teams that ran the same strategy simulator show that the consideration and description of a wide range of alternatives and team agreement as a result of discussion of such alte…
Ileo-ileal invagination--a cause of recurrent mid-gastrointestinal bleeding: diagnostic and endoscopic therapy by means of push-and-pull enteroscopy.
2008
The types of lesions that cause bleeding in the small bowel are similar to those found in other areas in the gastrointestinal tract, such as vascular malformations, ulcers and inflammatory lesions, neoplasms and other less common lesions like Meckel's diverticulum. This report describes three patients with suspected mid-gastrointestinal bleeding with no significant past medical history. Before presenting to our unit the diagnostic work-up such as oesophagogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy and radiological small bowel imaging such as conventional enteroclysis or magnet resonance imaging enteroclysis had been performed without detecting any bleeding source. Capsule endoscopy suspected an angiod…
Co-digestion of energy crops and industrial confectionery by-products with cow manure: batch-scale and farm-scale evaluation.
2002
The possible co-digestion of energy crops and industrial confectionery by-products with cow manure was evaluated firstly, through long-term batch experiments and secondly, in a farm-scale digester. In batch assays, digestion with mesophilically digested cow manure as inoculum resulted in specific methane yields (m3 kg−1 VSadded waste) of 0.35 for grass hay (particle size <1.0 cm); 0.26 for oats (0.5 cm) and 0.21 for clover (2.0 cm) harvested at vegetative stage and 0.14 (2.0 cm) for clover harvested at flowering stage. Specific methane yields (m3 kg−1 VSadded waste) for confectionery by-products were 0.37 for chocolate, 0.39 for black candy and 0.32 for confectionery raw material. Ou…
Noticias sobre la enseñanza de la pintura en la Escuela de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia entre 1895 y 1932. Los alumnos
2005
El presente artículo trata de dar a conocer la actividad de los alumnos de la Escuela de Bellas Artes de Valencia que realizaron su formación en dicha institución entre los años 1895 y 1932. Durante ese periodo se formaron en San Carlos varias generaciones de artistas valencianos que recibieron las enseñanzas académicas apropiadas para adquirir las más altas capacidades técnicas y artísticas. Estos artistas continuaron con la tradición pictórica de la centenaria escueta artística valenciana. (A)
