Teststatistische Prüfung und Normierung der deutschen Versionen des EUROHIS-QOL Lebensqualität-Index und des WHO-5 Wohlbefindens-Index
2007
Zusammenfassung. Der Beitrag berichtet uber die teststatistische Prufung und Normierung der deutschen Versionen des EUROHIS-QOL 8 Item Index (EUROHIS-QOL) zur Erfassung der generischen Lebensqualitat und des Wohlbefindens-Index der WHO (WHO-5) zur Erfassung der Wohlbefindens aus Sicht der Befragten. Datengrundlage bildet eine reprasentative Stichprobe der bundesdeutschen Bevolkerung aus dem Jahr 2004. Die teststatistische Prufung verweist auf gute psychometrische Eigenschaften des EUROHIS-QOL Index. Obgleich Modifikationsmoglichkeiten bestehen, wird die Selektion von Items ausgeschlossen, weil dies den komzeptuellen Vorgaben der Indexkonstruktion widersprechen wurde. Die Ergebnisse der test…
Neue Perspektiven der laparoskopischen Simulation: Vom Studententrainingslabor bis zur Stressevaluation
2008
Hintergrund: Die Anwendung eines LapSim®-Trainingsmodells im Studententrainingslabor sowie die objektive Evaluation von Stress in einem virtuellen Operations-Szenario bieten neue Perspektiven der laparoskopischen Simulation. Methodik: Im Studententrainingslabor erfolgte bei 28 Probanden am LapSim® Virtual-Reality (VR)-Simulator in einem Trainingscurriculum, bestehend aus 9 Einheiten, die Erfassung von Lernkurven laparoskopischer Basisfertigkeiten sowie komplexer Prozesse. In einem virtuellen Operations-Szenario wurde des Weiteren bei 18 Chirurgen eine Stressevaluation mittels eines Sympathikografen vorgenommen und dabei die laparoskopische Fehler- und Komplikationsrate erfasst. Hierbei konn…
Birthing Support for Midwives and Mothers - ErgonomicTesting and Product Development
2012
Purpose: To further develop an ergonomic birthing support for increasing comfortable postures for midwives and mothers during deliveries. Methods and Results: First, the prototype of the birthing support and six birthing postures were tested with 8 midwives, 2 physicians, and 10 pregnant women in the last month of their pregnancy using visual analogue scales (VASs) and the System Usability Scale (SUS). According to the midwives and mothers, the best birthing postures were those with the mother sitting on the birthing support with the bed crosswise or the mother laying on her side on the bed with her leg on the birthing support. In the second stage of the study, 4 experts carried out an expe…
Psychometrische Güte der Selbst- und Fremdbeurteilungsinstrumente ADHS-SB und Wender-Reimherr-Interview bei Senioren mit Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-/Hype…
2016
Zusammenfassung Ziel der Studie und Methodik Die Anwendbarkeit der etablierten ADHS-Verfahren für Erwachsene, ADHS-SB und Wender-Reimherr-Interview, im Senium wurde an einer Stichprobe von 324 Personen im Alter zwischen 60 und 99 Jahren überprüft. Ergebnisse Die beiden Verfahren weisen für den Einsatz bei SeniorInnen eine geringere psychometrische Güte auf im Vergleich zur Anwendung bei Erwachsenen im jungen und mittleren Lebensalter. Es zeigt sich eine hohe Korrelation beider Verfahren mit der klinischen Beurteilung der Experten bei Personen im Seniorenalter. Schlussfolgerung Als Ergänzung zur ausführlichen klinischen Exploration können die ADHS-SB und das WRI auch im Senium als valide Dia…
Implementation of the eHealth Project in Latvia: Project audit perspective
2016
In order to improve effectiveness of provision of healthcare service, the project implemented by the Ministry of Health- ”E-health in Latvia” is a step towards the right direction. It will provide the possibility for patients to ensure a greater control over their health issues, by maintaining healthy habits, lifestyle, increase substantiation of adoption of decisions and speed of service in the healthcare industry, ensuring quality and accessible information; patients will receive more quality services and in a shorter period of time for issuance of prescription drugs. Nevertheless, the policy prepared by the Ministry of Health in the area of e-Health will not be implemented in the planned…
Micro-Economical Aspects of Public Projects: Impact Factors for Project Efficiency and Sustainability
2015
Project management approach in the public administration becoming gradually applied tool for implementation of different public programs and activities. Latvia has several methodological documentations to evaluate the possible benefits from infrastructure but still there is need for improvements as the only clear defined methodology is for transport sectors and those which have been provided by the European commission, but not always have been practically used in local municipalities’ project evaluations. Public projects, and planning for such projects, generally have the following characteristics: • Such projects are inherently risky due to long planning horizons and complex interfaces. • …
Project Management in the Port Development Project in Latvia
2016
Paper analyse case study of performance and compliance audit in the port development project in Latvia. Author has participated in the audit process evaluating project management application practical approach in the project implemented by the Riga Freeport Authority and co-funded by the Cohesion Fund “Development of Infrastructure on Krievu Island for the Transfer of Port Activities from the City Centre”. Despite the mass media reports that the Riga Freeport Authority has successfully completed the project, only the construction phase of the project has been completed. During the following two years the stevedore activity must be transferred to the newly built port infrastructure on Krievu…
Prevalence and 30-Day Mortality in Hospitalized Patients With Covid-19 and Prior Lung Diseases.
2021
Patients with pre-existing respiratory diseases in the setting of COVID-19 may have a greater risk of severe complications and even death.A retrospective, multicenter, cohort study with 5847 COVID-19 patients admitted to hospitals. Patients were separated in two groups, with/without previous lung disease. Evaluation of factors associated with survival and secondary composite end-point such as ICU admission and respiratory support, were explored.1,271 patients (22%) had a previous lung disease, mostly COPD. All-cause mortality occurred in 376 patients with lung disease (29.5%) and in 819 patients without (17.9%) (Previous lung disease is a risk factor for mortality in patients with COVID-19.…
On the influence of using binary and distributed information for 2D hydraulic model calibration and uncertainty evaluation
2013
Floods are considered the most frequent natural disaster world-wide and may have serious socio economic impacts in a community. In order to accomplish flood risk mitigation, flood risk analysis and assessment are required to provide information on current or future flood hazard and risks. Hazard and risk maps involve different data, expertise and effort, depending also on the end-users. More or less advanced deterministic approaches can be used, but intuitively probabilistic approaches seem to be more correct and suited for modelling flood inundation given typical uncertainties. Two very important matters remain open for research: the calibration of hydraulic models (oriented towards the es…
