▼ The idea that the same experimental findings can be reproduced by a variety of independent approaches is one of the cornerstones of science’s claim to objective truth. However, in recent years, it has become clear that science is plagued by findings that cannot be reproduced and, consequently, invalidating research studies and undermining public trust in the research enterprise. The observed lack of reproducibility may be a result, among other things, of the lack of transparency or completeness in reporting. In particular, omissions in reporting the technical nature of the experimental method make it difficult to verify the findings of experimental research in biomedicine. In this context, the assessment of scientific reports could help to overcome – at least in part – the ongoing reproducibility crisis.In addressing this issue, this Thesis undertakes the challenge of developing strategies for the evaluation of reporting biomedical experimental methods in scientific manuscripts. Considering the complexity of experimental design – often involving different technologies and models, we characterise the problem in methods reporting through domain-specific checklists. Then, by using checklists as a decision making tool, supported by miniRECH – a spreadsheet-based approach that can be used by authors, editors and peer-reviewers – a reasonable level of consensus on reporting assessments was achieved regardless of the domain-specific expertise of referees. In addition, by using a text-mining system as a screening tool, a framework to guide an automated assessment of the reporting of bio-experiments was created. The usefulness of these strategies was demonstrated in some domain-specific scientific areas as well as in mouse models across biomedical research.In conclusion, we suggested that the strategies developed in this work could be implemented through the publication process as barriers to prevent incomplete reporting from entering the scientific literature, as well as promoters of completeness in reporting to improve the general value of the scientific evidence.

▼ Despite remarkable advancements in new technology in the past century, highly trained experts continue to make avoidable errors: planes crash, buildings collapse, trains collide and marketing units make bad decisions when selecting segments for targeting. Cross-functional teams are brought together in the hope that a range of different views will help to improve project outcome. Despite the extensive knowledge brought together in cross-functional teams, experts continue to make mistakes. Many disciplines have taken action and implemented simple and easy to use checklist, which have, despite their simplicity, significantly improved team performance. Checklists have successfully helped pilots during emergency landings, guided staff during complex medical procedures, and coordinated activities of different contractors when building skyscrapers. Despite the demonstrated usefulness in other disciplines, marketers to date have not explored the potential of checklists. While marketing textbooks do recommend the use of checklists, it remains unclear how exactly to develop and operationalise them and there is virtually no evidence of them being used in marketing practise. The aim of this research is to test, for the first time, the usefulness of checklists in a marketing management context and to gain insight into relevant parameters for checklist design. First, targeting practices in 223 US firms are investigated by surveying marketing managers. Checklist usage and its association with performance outcomes are assessed. Managerial preference for targeting checklists is also investigated. Using insights from the manager survey, the characteristics and properties of alternative types of targeting checklists are then compared in an experiment using 430 business students. Teams of three students had to make targeting decisions in the StratsimMarketing simulation, using one of three types of checklist developed for this study. Results from the manager survey indicate that using checklists, or similar structured processes, is associated with higher segmentation (+27%), innovation (+26%), and business (+7%) performance. In the experiment, checklist usage significantly increased the number of inspected decision criteria when used by cross-functional teams, which in turn, prevented new product failure in the simulated market. Checklists do however have the potential to increase team coordination difficulties. In contrast with previous studies, findings from the current study indicate that discipline checklists have the potential to increase team coordination…

▼ The research reported on in this thesis forms part of the foundation of a bigger research project in which an attempt is made to provide better, faster and more efficient feedback on student writing. The introduction presents the localised and international context of the study, and discusses some of the problems experienced with feedback practice in general. The introduction also gives a preview of the intended practical implementation of the research reported on in this thesis. From there on, the thesis is presented in article form with each article investigating and answering a part of two main guiding questions. These questions are: 1. Does feedback on student writing work? 2. How can feedback on student writing be implemented as effectively as possible? The abstracts for the five individual articles are as follows: Article 1 Article 1 presents a rubric for the evaluation of Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) software based on international recommendations for effective CALL. The rubric is presented after a brief overview of the pedagogical and implementation fundamentals of CALL, and a discussion of what needs to be included in a needs analysis for CALL evaluation. It is then illustrated how the evaluation criteria in the rubric can be used in the design of a new CALL system. Article 2 Providing feedback on student writing is a much-debated topic. One group of researchers argues that it is ineffective and another group remains convinced that it is effective, while at ground level teachers and lecturers simply carry on “marking” texts. The author of this article contends that both arguments have valid contributions to make and uses the arguments both for and against feedback to create a checklist for effective feedback practice. Adhering to this checklist should counter most of the arguments against feedback while supporting and improving the positive arguments in favour of feedback. Article 3 This article reports on an experiment which tested how effectively standardised feedback could be used when marking L2 student writing. The experiment was conducted using a custom-programmed software tool and a set of standardised feedback comments. The results of the experiment prove that standardised feedback can be used consistently and effectively to a degree, even though some refinements are still needed. Using standardised feedback in a standard marking environment can assist markers in raising their awareness of errors and in more accurately identifying where students lack knowledge. With some refinements, it may also be possible to speed up the marking process. Article 4 This article describes an experiment in which Boolean feedback (a kind of checklist) was used to provide feedback on the paragraph structures of first-year students in an academic literacy course. The major problems with feedback on L2 writing are introduced and it is established why a focus on paragraph structures in particular is of importance. The experiment conducted was a two-draft assignment in which three…

▼ Practitioners in creative domains such as web design, data visualization, and software development face many challenges while trying to create novel solutions that satisfy the guidelines around practical constraints and quality considerations. My dissertation work addresses two of these challenges. First, sometimes the guidelines may conflict with each other under a certain scenario. In this situation, tasks require expert opinion to prioritize one guideline over the other. This dependence on expertise makes the design process slow and time-consuming. Second, sometimes it is difficult to determine which guidelines have been fulfilled. In this scenario, experts have to manually go through a list of guidelines and make sure applicable guidelines have been successfully applied to the final product. However, using a list of guidelines has its own drawbacks. Not all guidelines are applicable to a project, and finding a relevant guideline can be strenuous for experts. Moreover, a design process is not as simple as following a list of guidelines. Design processes are dynamic, non-linear, and iterative. Due to these reasons, a simple list of guidelines does not align with the designers' workflow. My dissertation focuses on exploring mixed-initiative methods where computers and humans collaborate in a tight feedback loop to help follow guidelines. To this end, I present solutions for two complex creative tasks: biological network visualization where we can compute how well a design adheres to the guidelines but guidelines may conflict and web design where task requirements are hard to check programmatically. I hope this dissertation can serve to accelerate research on leveraging the complementary strengths of humans and computers in the context of creative processes that are generally considered out of bounds for automated methods.

▼ Doel: Onderzoeken of de OSCE voor een geheel cohort studenten binnen de faculteit Diergeneeskunde in Utrecht mogelijk is. Omdat de OSCE een nieuwe toetsmethode binnen deze faculteit is, om een zo goed mogelijk beeld over de OSCE te krijgen onderzocht hoe en wanneer studenten zich op de OSCE voorbereid hebben, of het uitmaakt voor de score van de student of zij door middel van een specifieke checklist beoordeeld worden of door middel van een checklist met globale items. Omdat deze OSCE meerdere dagen duurde, is tevens onderzocht of er deze dagen een significante stijging van de resultaten van de studenten plaatsvond. Materialen en methoden: in december 2009 is een pilot OSCE gehouden onder 214 veterinaire bachelor studenten in hun 3e studiejaar waarbij in totaal 42 examinatoren betrokken waren. Deze OSCE omvatte tien stations waar studenten vijf minuten de tijd hadden om een station te voltooien. In totaal zijn vier dagen nodig geweest om alle studenten de OSCE te laten doorlopen. Om attitude jegens deze manier van toetsing te meten hebben zowel docenten als studenten een enquête ingevuld. Daarnaast zijn twee focusgroep interviews met studenten gehouden. Middels de Borderline Regressie methode werd de zak/slaaggrens per station bepaald. De resultaten per dagdeel zijn door middel van ANOVA analyses met elkaar vergeleken. Resultaten: Studenten die de OSCE op de eerste dag (dinsdag) doorliepen begonnen een paar dagen van te voren met studeren en bestudeerden alle mogelijk gevraagde stations. Studenten die de OSCE later doorlopen hebben begonnen dinsdag met studeren en bestudeerden alleen de tien gevraagde stations. De studenten hebben aangegeven zich op verschillende manieren voor te bereiden voor de OSCE. Er lijkt iets hoger gescoord te worden met de globale checklist dan met de specifieke checklist maar hiervoor is geen statistische onderbouwing. Examinatoren beoordelen graag met de specifieke checklist. Studenten worden graag beoordeeld door middel van een combinatie van beide beoordelingsmethoden. Hoewel de scores op een aantal stations significant verschillen tussen de dagdelen is er geen significant stijgende trend van de resultaten van de studenten waar te nemen. Conclusies: Studenten passen hun studeergedrag aan het moment waarop zij de OSCE doorlopen aan. Zij gebruiken verschillende methoden om zich voor te bereiden op de OSCE. Gedurende de OSCE vond er geen significante stijging van de resultaten van de studenten plaats. Advisors/Committee Members: Jaarsma, A.D.C., Moens, H.C., Beukelen, P. van.

Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Engenharia e Gestão Industrial

O computador é cada vez mais uma ferramenta fulcral nas empresas, devido às suas funcionalidades e benefícios para os processos e organização das empresas, pelo que o número de postos de trabalho com computadores tem vindo a crescer. Paralelamente aumentam também as preocupações com a HCI(Human-Computer Interaction, em português, Interação entre homem e computador) e a obrigatoriedade, por lei, de garantir a saúde e segurança dos trabalhadores. O facto de existirem relações diretas entre o aumento de determinadas doenças ocupacionais - como o stress e as LMERT’s(Lesões músculo esqueléticas relacionadas com Trabalho) – e os postos de trabalho com computadores, torna essencial analisar e avaliar os riscos a que os trabalhadores possam estar expostos. Neste sentido desenvolveu-se uma metodologia de avaliação de riscos centrada no utilizador,direcionada a postos de trabalho com computadores, nomeadamente em escritórios. Esta metodologia baseia-se em várias checklists de avaliação, referentes a várias áreas, com o intuito de criar uma ferramenta completa e de fácil utilização que forneça resultados práticos e medidas de melhoria. A construção das checklists teve por base a legislação portuguesa, as normas internacionais, a literatura científica e outros documentos relacionados. Com este estudo pretende-se criar uma metodologia completa, interativa e compreensível, que proponha medidas de melhoria e que apresenta uma mais valia na avaliação de riscos em postos de trabalho com computadores. De realçar também que não existe nenhuma metodologia deste género em português. Na vertente do empreendedorismo, procurou-se criar uma ideia base para um modelo de negócio de forma a rentabilizar as aplicações da metodologia desenvolvida. Assim criou-se uma versão online experimental da metodologia, de forma a explorar as possibilidades de aplicação através dos Sistemas de Informação, nomeadamente plataformas de desenvolvimento e gestão de conteúdos online. Após a escolha das plataformas de aplicação e desenvolvimento da versão experimental, procedeu-se à realização de um caso de estudo, onde se avaliou e aplicou a metodologia desenvolvida.

▼ Five to nine percent of children and adolescents have a serious emotional disorder and of those only 21 percent receive services. Early and accurate diagnosis can increase positive outcomes for these children (U.S. Surgeon General’s Report, 1999). Behavior checklists are standard assessment tools used in the evaluation of children and adolescents for the diagnosis of various disorders. This study focuses specifically on the Behavior Assessment for Children, Second Edition (BASC-2) in addressing factors that would assist in the interpretation of the ratings of multiple informants. In particular, the following factors were considered: the level of agreement between informants, the ability of informants’ ratings in the prediction of the final diagnosis, the difference in parents’ and teachers’ ratings on positive versus problem behavior and the differences in informants’ ratings based on the child’s gender. Data was gathered from 100 evaluations that used the BASC-2 from a university based outpatient clinic that conducted assessments on children and adolescents ages 6 to 17. Ratings for Internalizing, Externalizing, Attention Problems, Adaptive Skills and Behavior Symptom Index were explored across multiple informants (mothers, fathers, and two teachers). Given the sample size and the percentage of missing data, data was analyzed using multiple imputation techniques. Findings suggest that level of agreement between mothers and fathers are higher than the level of agreement between two teachers across all the scales except Externalizing. On the Externalizing scale, teachers’ ratings had higher levels of agreement. Furthermore, results suggest that the level of agreement between informants is lower across settings (home vs. school). Differences in agreement were found for Adaptive Skills and Internalizing with parents ratings these scales higher than teachers. Results for informants’ predictive ability indicated that mothers’ ratings are the best predictors attention-related diagnosis and fathers’ ratings for internalizing related diagnosis. No differences were found between parent and teacher ratings of positive and problem behavior. In examining gender differences, parents and teachers rated boys higher than girls for externalizing behavior, attention problems, and total problems; whereas, parents and teachers rated girls higher than boys for positive behavior. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.

▼ Veterinärmediziner haben ein weit reichendes Aufgabengebiet und spielen eine wichtige Rolle im Tierschutz und der Aufrechterhaltung der Gesundheit von Tier und Mensch. Wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichungen sind von großer Bedeutung, um Erkenntnisse in die Praxis einzuführen. Allerdings besteht die Schwierigkeit eines ständigen Anstiegs der Publikationsmenge und deren Qualitätsunterschieden. Aus diesem Grund wurde eine systematische Beurteilung der Qualität von veterinärmedizinischer Literatur dem Tierarzt helfen, eine optimale Betreuung der Patienten anhand von Erkenntnissen mit der höchsten Evidenz zu gewährleisten. Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Beurteilung der Qualität von aktueller veterinärmedizinischer Literatur und die Durchführbarkeit dieser Beurteilung. Zuerst wird ein Überblick der evidenzbasierten Veterinärmedizin und ihre Vor- und Nachteile bei der Etablierung im Praxisalltag dargestellt. In der ersten Studie wurde die Qualität einer randomisierten Stichprobe von Publikationen über die Reproduktionsmedizin von Rindern, Pferden und Hunden bewertet und verglichen. Eine Literatursuche wurde anhand der Datenbanken Medline und Veterinary Science durchgeführt. Ungefähr das Fünffache an Artikeln wurde zur Reproduktionsmedizin von Rindern (n = 25 910) im Vergleich zu Hunden (n = 5 015) und Pferden (n = 5 090) gefunden. Für die Beurteilung der Literatur wurde ein Fragebogen genutzt. Eine Stichprobe von 600 Artikeln, die zwischen 1999 und 2008 publiziert wurden, wurde randomisiert ausgewählt. Nach der Anwendung von Ausschlusskriterien wurden 268 Studien (86 für Rinder, 99 für Pferde und 83 für Hunde) bewertet und weitere Analysen durchgeführt. Die Daten dieser Studie bestätigten für den Bereich der Reproduktionsmedizin von Hunden und Pferden weniger klinische Studien mit einer Kontrollgruppe im Vergleich zur Reproduktionsmedizin von Rindern (Rinder 66%, Pferde 41% und Hunde 41%). Für alle drei untersuchten Tierarten wurden nur wenige Publikationen (4%) mit dem höchsten Evidenzlevel (kontrollierte, randomisierte und verblindete Studien oder Metaanalysen) identifiziert. Als adäquate, um wissenschaftlich gesicherte Schlussfolgerungen ziehen zu können, wurden 33% der Publikationen aus dem Themenbereich Rind eingestuft. Nur 7% und 11% waren bei Hunden und Pferden als adäquate beurteilt worden. Insgesamt weisen die Ergebnisse dieser Studie Defizite und Unterschiede in Publikationen der Reproduktionsmedizin von Rindern, Pferden und Hunden auf. Dementsprechend ist eine Verbesserung der Qualität der Planung, Durchführung und Beschreibung klinischer Studien erforderlich. Ziel der zweiten Studie war die Untersuchung des inter-observer Agreements bei der Nutzung eines existierenden Fragebogens für die Bewertung von wissenschaftlicher Literatur in dem Bereich der Veterinär-Reproduktionsmedizin. Drei Artikel zu dem Thema der Reproduktionsmedizin von Rindern (ein Fallbericht, eine randomisierte, kontrollierte Studie ohne Verblindung und eine verblindete, randomisierte und kontrollierte Studie) wurden ausgewählt.

Bakgrund: Operationsteamet består av ett komplext samspel mellan olika professioner som tillsammans ska arbeta kring patienten vid kirurgiska ingrepp. Kirurgisk säkerhetschecklista [KSC] är ett redskap som ska bistå med hjälp för samarbetet och kommunikationen inom operationsteamet. Det finns en stor mängd forskning som bevisar hur KSC förbättrar mortalitet, morbiditet och patientsäkerheten, trots detta har operationsteamet bristande följsamhet gentemot KSC. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att beskriva operationsteamets uppfattningar av att använda KSC. Metod: Litteraturöversikten baserades på 14 vetenskapliga artiklar av kvalitativ, kvantitativ och mixad ansats. Artiklarna kvalitetsgranskades, analyserades, sönderdelades, tematiserades och sammanfogades till denna översikts resultat. Resultat: KSC kunde bidra till förbättrat teamarbete, kommunikation, och arbetsmiljö på operationssalen, samtidigt uppmärksammades olika hinder med samarbetet kring KSC. Personliga attityder, ställningstaganden och övertygelser hos de olika professionerna var faktorer som påverkade teamarbetet. Hur operationsteamet var lett påverkade även samarbetet kring KSC. Upplevelsen av tidsbrist och svårigheter med timing försvårade genomgången av KSC. Slutsats: Det är essentiellt att förstå den komplicerade arbetsmiljön på operationssalarna och hur KSC kan underlätta arbetet i operationssalen men även vilka faktorer som försvårar för operationsteamet att arbeta säkert. För att bilda en djupare uppfattning om operationsteamets komplexitet och arbete med KSC krävs vidare forskning. Resultatet av denna litteraturöversikt skulle kunna bistå med hjälp för klinikerna i sitt arbete kring säkerheten och samarbetet på operationssalarna.

Background: The surgical team consists of a complex interaction between different professionals who work together around the patient during surgical procedures. Surgical Safety Checklist [SSC] is a tool that should assist the interaction and communication within the surgical team. There is a great deal of research that proves how SSC improves mortality, morbidity and patient safety. The surgical team has despite that a lack of compliance with SSC. Aim: The aim of this litterateur review was to describe the surgical team’s perceptions of using the SSC. Method: The literature review was based on 14 scientific articles of qualitative, quantitative and mixed approaches. The articles were quality checked, analysed, broken down, thematized and merged into the result of this overview. Result: SSC was able to contribute to improved teamwork, communication, and work environment in the operating room, while at the same time various obstacles were highlighted with the collaboration around SSC. Personal attitudes, standpoints and beliefs within the various professions were factors that influenced teamwork. How the surgical team was led also affected the…

▼ Forest carbon offset projects have been growing vigorously in China in the last ten years. It is necessary to form an overall picture of the projects, to analyze the quality of their development processes, and to shed light on the development of upcoming projects. In order to evaluate their development process, a framework of assessment was built up and applied in practical project assessment. In this thesis, firstly, the situation of the global carbon markets and Chinese forest carbon offset projects was introduced. Especially, different international and domestic carbon accounting and other carbon related standards were presented and compared. Secondly, the previous studies about the assessment of sustainable development impacts of the forestry carbon projects were reviewed; the approaches and indicators were compared and summarized. Then, in combination with checklists and multi-criteria approaches, a new assessment framework was established, consisting of a set of indicators and a four-level scoring system. Finally, 16 Chinese forestry projects which have applied different carbon standards were evaluated with this assessment framework. Their performances were compared and analyzed, the characteristics of standards were also compared. According to the results of the assessment, the successfully registered Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects gained higher scores, suggesting their development processes were of higher quality. The projects applying Climate, Community, and Biodiversity Standards (CCBS) in pair with another carbon accounting standard also tended to get higher scores, indicating the positive effect of CCBS on the consideration of sustainable co-benefits. The international standards are stricter than domestic standards, which can be seen from the comprehensiveness and meticulousness of the Project Design Documents (PDDs). The result of the assessment corresponds to the previous understanding about the projects and standards, which supports the validity of the assessment framework.

▼ Currently, the Maintenance Department occupies a prominent place in most industries, due to the benefits that come from its function. To this end, it is imperative that the implementation of preventive maintenance plans be as efficient as possible, in order to promote the continuous production of products, without waste. In this context, a problem arises in Preh Portugal, Lda. related to the maintenance management, namely the existence of an excess of typologies existing in the different checklists, which resulted in an inefficiency of the maintenance activity in the assembly area. So, a problem of wasting time is generated in the creation of preventive maintenance plans as well as in the execution of them, resulting in high operating costs. The present work consists of the study and development of a methodology capable of streamlining and improving the process of creating task lists, rectifying the existing problems, with the aim to implement an effective preventive maintenance plan. Additionally, the analysis of how the key performance indicators evolve through this change is performed. In the first phase, a survey of the essential topics is carried out to approach the topic of Maintenance. In addition, it is described the software used for monitoring and managing the company's data. In a second stage, the situation of the company is explained prior to the changes made and the transformations that took place after that, describing in detail the entire process that gave rise to the results that have been obtained. In a third phase, a detailed analysis of the key performance indicators used in the organization is performed, namely, the availability, mean time between failures, mean time to repair and the mean time to acknowledge. In this stage, it is also discussed another issue in the Maintenance division - the availability of the first shift. To conclude, final considerations are made, revealing that the final solution of the checklists presents itself as an advantage for the process of preventive maintenance.

O processo produtivo industrial pode gerar uma grande quantidade de efluentes líquidos. Esses efluentes, quando não tratados, podem poluir o solo e a água, podendo causar grande impacto ambiental. Nesse sentido é imprescindível que todas as indústrias que geram efluentes líquidos possuam uma estação de tratamento. Porém, para que a estação esteja permanentemente funcionando de acordo com seu objetivo, essa deve ser rotineiramente avaliada. Dessa forma, a avaliação de desempenho para Estação de Tratamento de Efluentes Industriais (ETEI) se torna uma ferramenta importante para a manutenção da eficiência da estação, pois se justifica por procurar pontos vulneráveis da planta de tratamento fornecendo os subsídios necessários à elaboração do diagnóstico e projetos de adequação dos sistemas, permitindo que os efluentes tratados fiquem em conformidade com as exigências estabelecidas pela legislação ambiental. Neste trabalho, foi elaborada uma proposta metodológica, formada por um roteiro, composto por níveis de questionamentos, que auxilia o avaliador na análise de desempenho da ETEI. Complementando esse roteiro foram elaboradas algumas listas de verificação que contribuem para guiar o avaliador em suas análises. Na elaboração das listas, manuais desenvolvidos em diversos países foram considerados. As listas de verificação incluem perguntas para a avaliação dos dados gerais da indústria, para seu Sistema de Gestão Ambiental (SGA) e para alguns sistemas e unidades operacionais da estação de tratamento. Para exemplificar um dos níveis de questionamento do roteiro foi incluído um estudo de caso, no qual o afluente e o efluente de uma indústria mineradora foram avaliados através da técnica estatística multivariada Análise de Componentes Principais (ACP), para demonstração do desempenho da estação de tratamento. O resultado da avaliação realizada demonstrou um bom desempenho da ETEI em tratar os efluentes líquidos. Espera-se, portanto, que este trabalho seja útil para a avaliação de desempenho em plantas de tratamento de efluentes industriais.

The industrial production process can generate large amounts of wastewater. These effluents, when untreated, can pollute soil and water, causing great environmental impact. In this sense it is essential that all industries that generate wastewater own a treatment plant. In order to keep the treatment plant permanently functioning according to its purpose, it should be routinely evaluated. Therefore the performance evaluation for Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plants (IWTP) becomes an important tool for maintaining its efficiency, and justifies itself by seeking vulnerable points on the treatment plant and providing subsidies needed to produce diagnosis and projects to adequate the systems, allowing treated effluent to remain in compliance with the requirements established by the environmental legislation. In this work, a methodological proposal was designed, formed by a road map composed of levels of questioning, which assists the evaluator in the performance analysis of IWTP. In…

▼ Venous thromboemboli (VTEs) are a clinical and public health problem as they are commonly linked to inpatient experiences, yet frequently occur in the outpatient setting. VTEs place a significant burden on health care organizations and patients alike, as VTEs are costly, require long-term medications, and frequently reoccur. Research has identified risk factors and determined best practices for VTE prevention and prophylaxis, however little consensus exists among health care organizations and the implementation of best practices is varied. This project studied the challenges and opportunities in VTE prevention and prophylaxis at a large metropolitan hospital in California. Environmental changes were made in patient rooms across ten medical surgical units to increase nurses’ compliance with sequential compression device (SCD) orders. New machines were labeled and placed on patient beds, signs were placed on documentation stations, and education sessions were conducted with over 300 medical surgical nurses. Informal interviews with nursing staff, discharge pharmacists, and the hospital’s outpatient clinic staff were conducted to determine obstacles in compliance and gaps in anticoagulant discharge education. The subsequent audits revealed that nurses’ compliance with SCD orders and documentation remain low and that SCD machines continue to be misplaced, transferred between units, and stored incorrectly. Additional observations further indicated that discharge anticoagulation education is inconsistent and a discharge checklist was developed in response. Future work will include increased education about SCD compliance and documentation. Additional research should be conducted to identify new barriers to compliance, interdisciplinary influences, as well as to determine local, state, or national similarities. Furthermore, interdisciplinary processes must be developed to ensure the tracking and return of machines. In addition, an institutional policy, such as the standardization of the discharge checklist, should be implemented to ensure consistent discharge patient education and optimal patient outcomes.

År 2003 introducerades en checklista för patienters kliniska status och vårdplats på neurointensivvårdsavdelningen (NIVA) på ett universitetssjukhus i Mellansverige. Studiens syfte var att utvärdera denna checklista som verktyg i klinisk verksamhet med fokus på brister, åtgärder och användarvänlighet. Studien består av tre delar och är deskriptiv med kvantitativ ansats. En observationsstudie av tvärsnittskaraktär där funna brister och åtgärder studerats, en journalgranskning där användarvänlighet studerats och en enkätstudie avseende intensivvårdssjuksköterskornas erfarenheter och upplevelser. Resultatet visade att checklistan var användarvänlig med nyttjandefrekvens på 100 %. Intensivvårdssjuksköterskorna ansåg att checklistan inverkar positivt på arbetet, utgör ett stöd och bidrar till ökad patientsäkerhet. Den vanligast funna bristen var larmgränser. Totalt påträffades brister i 38 % av fallen och dessa gav en åtgärdsfrekvens på 77,5 %. En signifikant skillnad avseende åtgärdsfrekvensen påträffades mellan dag- och nattpass. Slutsatsen är att checklistan bidrar till att brister upptäcks och åtgärdas, den är användarvänlig och personalen är positivt inställd till den. En modifierad checklista skulle kunna användas inom intensivvårdsavdelningar generellt och säkerställa att personal arbetar på ett likvärdigt sätt och medföra en mer patientsäker vård där rätten till lika vård för alla efterlevs inom checklistans avsedda område.

This study aimed to evaluate a checklist, with regard to the workstation and the clinical status of the patient, used at the neuro-intensive care unit, NIVA, at a university hospital in central Sweden. The design of the study is descriptive with quantitative data and consists of three parts. An observational, cross-sectional study where flaws and measures where studied, a journal review where the usability where studied and a survey in which critical care nurses expressed their experiences and perceptions. The results showed that flaws where found in 38 % of all cases and these gave a measure frequency of 77,5 %. The checklist was user friendly with utilization of 100 %. According to the critical care nurses the checklist had a positive impact on their daily work, it provided support and contributed to increase patient safety. The conclusion is that the checklist contributes to detection and correction of flaws, it is user fiendly and the critical care nurses have a positive mindset about it. A modified checklist could be used in intensive care settings in general to ensure that staff are working on an equivalent basis and provide a more patient-safe care.

▼ The overall question this research aimed to address was how and why the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) of The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) evolved. A literature review and introduction are presented as a background to the evolution of the Objective Structured Clinical Assessment (OSCA)-OSCE-Clinical Examination of RACS. A brief history of surgery and training, an outline of the functions of RACS and a description of evolution from the apprenticeship model to formal surgical training programs is given. A background to the purpose of assessment within RACS, and formative and summative assessments precedes a description of the Part 1 Examination of RACS. By 1985 it was realised that not all objectives of basic surgical training of the RACS could be assessed in the Part 1 Examination using Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs); hence the introduction of an OSCE Clinical Examination, to assess clinical skills such as history taking, examination of patients, procedural skills and communication skills. A description of the Part 2 exit examination and the relation of RACS to universities and government are given. To undertake clinical examinations, clear definitions of clinical competence are required, and the differences between knowledge, the application of knowledge, competence and performance are considered and elucidated. These form the background to the clinical examination as a competency assessment, as opposed to a performance assessment in actual clinical practice. Then follows a detailed analysis of some important components of any examination process including: clear definition of the purpose of the assessment; blueprinting for type and content of assessment; reliability; validity; educational impact or consequential validity; cost; and feasibility and acceptability. Reliability of different clinical examination types is considered in detail, and an outline of definitions and the method of determining reliability described. Factors affecting reliability include: length of testing time; number of testing samples; number of examiners; standardised patient performance; and variation of examinees across testing stations (inter-case variability or content specificity). Validity is examined to ensure an examination is actually testing what it is intended to test. Face and content validity, alignment between the curriculum, the references and the examination, and consequential validity (the effect of the examination on learning) are highlighted as important validity components. Then follows an evaluation of rating scales for OSCE exams, using check lists or global assessments, assessor training, and methods to determine standards and pass marks for the examination. This includes relative and absolute standards, Angoff’s judgemental method, and the importance of…

▼ Embedded systems control nearly every device we encounter. Examples abound: appliances, scientific instruments, building environmental controls, avionics, communications, smart phones, and transportation subsystems. These embedded systems can fail in various ways: performance, safety, and meeting market needs. Design errors often cause failures in performance or safety. Market failures, particularly delayed schedule release or running over budget, arise from poor processes. Rigorous methods can significantly reduce the probability of failure. Industry has produced and widely published “best practices” that promote rigorous design and development of embedded systems. Unfortunately, 20 to 35% of development teams do not use them, which leads to operational failures or missed schedules and budgets. This dissertation increases the potential for success in designing and developing embedded systems through the following: 1. It identifies, through literature review, the reasons and factors that cause teams to avoid best practices, which in turn contribute to development failures. 2. It provides a framework, as a psychologically unbiased mediator, to help teams institute best practices. The framework is both straightforward to implement and use and simple to learn. 3. It examines the feasibility of both crowdsourcing and the Delphi method to aid, through anonymous comments on proposed projects, unbiased mediation and estimation within the framework. In two separate case studies, both approaches resulted in underestimation of both required time and required effort. The wide variance in the surveys’ results from crowdsourcing indicated that approach to not be particularly useful. On the other hand, convergence of estimates and forecasts in both projects resulted when employing the Delphi method. Both approaches required six or more weeks to obtain final results. 4. It develops a recommendation model, as a plug-in module to the framework, for the build-versus-buy decision in design of subsystems. It takes a description of a project, compares designing a custom unit with integrating a commercial unit into the final product, and generates a recommendation for the build-versus-buy decision. A study of 18 separate case studies examines the sensitivity of 14 parameters in making the build-versus-buy decision when developing embedded systems. Findings are as follows: team expertise and available resources are most important; partitioning tasks and reducing interdependence are next in importance; the quality and support of commercial units are less important; and finally, premiums and product lifecycles have the least effect on the cost of development. A recommendation model incorporates the results of the sensitivity study and successfully runs on 16 separate case studies. It shows the feasibility and features of a tool that can recommend a build-or-buy decision. 5. It develops a first-order estimation model as another plug-in module to the framework. It aids in planning the development of embedded systems. It takes a… Advisors/Committee Members: Stephen A. DyerSteven Warren.
