Abstract:
Background: India carries the single largest share (around 25-30%) of neonatal deaths in the world. It has been estimated that about 70% of neonatal deaths could be prevented if proven interventions are implemented effectively with high coverage.Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted at various health facilities of Rajkot district where facility based newborn care are created as per the guidelines under NRHM. It was conducted during August 2013 to October, 2013. The data entry was done in Microsoft Office Excel 2007 and analyzed in Epi info software from CDC Atlanta. Results: This study included total 32 health facilities including 10 Primary Health Centers (PHC) (24X7), 15 Community Health Centers (CHC), 5 Sub District Hospitals (SDH), one District Hospital (DH) and one Medical College (MC). There are a total of 36 facilities of different level available in government set up for newborn care starting from NBCC to SNCU. All (100%) of the health centers visited were equipped with NBCC for newborn care, while NBSU and SNCU for newborn care were created at only 2 (6.2%) centers respectively. Only 2 out of 10 PHC had all required equipments for NBCC. All the required equipments were available at 3 CHCs out of total 15 CHCs. All the SDH were having adequate equipment for NBCC except resuscitator & separate Digital Thermometer were not available at 2 SDH. At DH, except for Digital thermometer, all equipments were adequate. Only 1 SDH has been established for NBSU and it did not have adequate no. of radiant warmer and resuscitator. DH is lacking in all the required equipment for SNCU except for resuscitator (250 ml) and refrigerator. Out of total 101 health personnel, 68 (67.3%) have been trained for NSSK. From total 68 trained health personnel, 12 (17.7%) got the score above the cut off for resuscitation skill. Out of the trained respondents, 29 (42.7%) acquired score above cut off for routine care.Conclusion: All the PHCs, CHCs, SDHs and DH were deficient in equipments. NBSU was created in only one SDH. SNBU was created at DH and MC, but equipments were not sufficient at both centers. Health care providers involved in facility based newborn care units had poor knowledge regarding routine newborn care and also not properly trained in resuscitation.

Abstract:
AbstractThe objective of the study was to ascertain the extent of utilization of medical technologies (defined as equipment) used in various health care institutions in Nigeria. The study also investigated the factors accounting for use of and under- and nonutilization of this equipment. Sixteen major and minor health care institutions were surveyed. The outcomes of the study indicate that not less than a third of the equipment was out of order at the time of the study. A number of factors are responsible for nonutilization of this equipment. They include lack of infrastructural facilities such as piped water, storage, and power supply; poor handling by badly trained staff; and the low priority that is accorded to maintenance. The study leads to the important conclusion that the local culture is unable to sustain the technologies that are procured.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction Quality of diagnostic and treatment care provided to patients largely depends on the availability of sophisticated medical equipment. Regular equipment maintenance helps in providing quality care and maintaining utilization coefficient (UC) of the medical equipment. Equipment utilization is the evaluation of medical equipment necessity, appropriateness, and efficiency of the use in diagnosing and treating a patient. If equipment shows UC of more than 50%, it is said to be a good investment. Objective To assess UC of dental institution equipment along with their maintenance schedule to increase operational efficiency. Materials and methods An observational study was conducted at a 250 chaired dental institution in Bengaluru in 2015 to calculate the use coefficient of medical equipment. Maintenance schedule was also recorded for all the equipment. Necessary permissions were obtained before starting the study. Results Around 50% of these medical equipments were underutilized. Only four equipments had preventive maintenance schedule under which services usually provided every 4 months. Most of the equipment did not have any maintenance contract. Conclusion It should be an earnest endeavor of the management and users to optimize the equipment utilization to obtain maximum return on capital invested. In an era of cost-intensive medical care, every equipment being installed in health care institutions need to be fully and properly utilized. Clinical Significance Findings of this study will enable the administrators to ensure that the equipment is in proper working condition to provide optimal patient care.

Abstract Introduction Nepal has pledged to substantially reduce maternal and newborn death by 2030. Improving quality of intrapartum health services will be vital to reduce these deaths. This paper examines quality of delivery and newborn services in health facilities of Nepal. Methods Data were sourced from the Nepal Health Facility Survey 2015, which covered a national representative sample of health facilities. The datasets were analysed to assess service readiness, availability and quality of delivery and newborn care in a sample of 992 health facilities. Results Of the 992 facilities in the sample, 623 provided delivery and newborn care services. Of the 623 facilities offering delivery and newborn care services, 13.3% offered comprehensive emergency obstetric care (CEmONC), 19.6% provided basic emergency obstetric care (BEmONC) and 53.9% provided basic delivery and newborn service. The availability of essential equipment for delivery and newborn care was more than 80% in health facilities. Except for the coverage of vitamin K injection, the coverage of immediate newborn care was more than 85% in all health facilities. The coverage of use of chlorhexidine ointment to all newborns was more than 70% in government hospitals and primary health care centers (PHCCs) and only 32.3% in private hospitals. Conclusions These findings show gaps in equipment and drugs, especially in PHCCs and private health facilities. Improving readiness and availability of equipment and drugs in PHCCs and private health facility will help improve the quality of care to further reduce maternal and newborn mortality in Nepal.

Abstract:

Managed care through a series of comprehensive health care services is a trend in today’s healthcare; and it includes specialized services that can provide plenty of opportunities to many healthcare organizations. Private Medical Service of San Diego currently does not have the necessary medical equipment to provide a comprehensive pain management and the ability to retain availability and flexibility to grow at its own pace and convenience. The new business plan is to acquire fluoroscopic equipment that will be staged in-house to equip its interdisciplinary pain management program. This will help increase the efficacy and safety of the pain management procedures as well as a potential for good profit.

Abstract:
Use of positive distraction in the built healthcare environment to assist in alleviating stress in a patient was investigated. A backlit light image was mounted in the ceiling of an examination room to create a positive distraction for patients in the ETSU Pediatric Clinic in Johnson City, TN. Survey instruments were used to collect sample data from patients and physicians in a randomized, balanced controlled study designed to determine if patients experienced less stress in the room with the backlit image as compared to other rooms (treatments). Although a statistical difference was not determined between the room with the backlit image and positive and negative control rooms, patients in rooms containing nature art tended to exhibit less anxiety. Researched based knowledge for creating positive distractions in the built healthcare environment helps designers create environments that benefit the patients, their families and medical staff of healthcare facilities.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
A presente dissertação de mestrado em metrologia relaciona- se à qualidade laboratorial do setor da saúde, notadamente da saúde pública, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento da confiabilidade metrológica do setor médico-hospitalar em pelo menos 4 aspectos básicos: (i) identificação da legislação metrológica disponível no Brasil, via de regra organizada de forma esparsa e não facilmente acessível ao profissional usuário final,cuja pesquisa bibliográfica explicita grande carência de literatura especializada; (ii) análise do acervo de normas e recomendações metrológicas para o setor; (iii)diagnóstico da qualidade laboratorial em um Laboratório Central de Saúde Pública (LACEN), como implementação de uma estratégia alternativa para implantação de sistema da qualidade em laboratório da saúde pública com base em uma nova abordagem que focaliza a qualidade laboratorial da Rede nacional de laboratórios Oficiais de Controle da Qualidade e Saúde, criando um mecanismo que permite ao laboratório demonstrar sua competência técnica; (iv) diagnóstico da conformidade metrológica de instrumentos médico-hospitalares fundamentado nos estudos de caso de balanças para controle da massa de neonatos e de instrumentos biomédicos para medição da pressão arterial, como exemplo de ação do controle metrológico de instrumentos de amplo uso no ambiente médico-hospitalar.A despeito da complexidade e abrangência do setor da saúde no Brasil, a pesquisa desenvolvida revelou não apenas carência e inadequação da literatura técnica disponível bem como forte vulnerabilidade no controle metrológico de laboratório e de equipamentos médico-hospitalares. O diagnóstico realizado em um laboratório típico da saúde pública evidenciou também grandes desafios para a implantação do sistema da qualidade laboratorial.A despeito dos complexos problemas de natureza política e econômica que afetam o sistema da saúde no Brasil, as limitações de caráter metrológicos relacionam-se (i) à falta de uma adequada cultura metrológica no setor, fator intrínseco que entrava a implementação do sistema da qualidade laboratorial, imprescindível à comprovação da competência técnica do laboratório (credenciamento) e (ii) uma surpreendente diversidade de modelos, tipos e quantidade de instrumentos/equipamentos em uso no setor, via de regra dependentes de calibração sofisticada que demandam complexa infra-estrutura laboratorial e métodos e práticas de calibração não disponíveis nos laboratórios credenciados que integram as redes laboratoriais implementadas no País. Sem a pretensão de exaurir tema de tal abrangência e complexidade, porém com o propósito de exemplificar duas importantes áreas que apresentam nítida vulnerabilidade em setores tradicionais cujo envolvimento metrológico não se constitui em barreira ao profissional- usuário do equipamento, a pesquisa analisou (a) o desempenho de dezesseis balanças disponíveis em seis hospitais maternidades, utilizadas para controle da massa de recém- nascidos, como estratégia de orientação do diagnóstico médico e (b)resultados do desempenho de esfigmomanômetros para controle da pressão arterial no ambiente hospitalar. O presente trabalho constitui parte de um esforço mais amplo, desenvolvido em articulação com a Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA), para fortalecer a qualidade laboratorial no setor da saúde pública brasileira.
The present dissertation for a Master`s degree in metrology is related to laboratory quality in the health care sector in general and to public health services in particular, and its purpose is to contribute to the development of reliable measurement practices in the hospital care section within the scope of at least 4 basic aspects: (i) identification of the available metrology legislation in Brazil which, as a rule, is sparsely organized and is not easily accessible to the end-user/practitioner, whose bibliographical research reveals an explicit lack of specialized literature; (ii) analysis of the compiled measurement standards and recommendations for the sector; (iii) diagnosis of laboratory quality in a Central Public Health Care Laboratory (Laboratório Central de Saúde Pública - LACEN)as a means by which to implement an alternative strategy for introducing a quality system in a public health care laboratory based on a new approach that focuses on the quality of the laboratories that comprise the National Network of Official Quality and Health Care Control Laboratories, and the subsequent creation of a type of mechanism that will allow a laboratory to demonstrate its technical competence; (iv) diagnosis of instruments that are employed in hospital services in terms of their conformity to measurement standards based on case studies of scales for controlling the mass of neonates, and of biomedical instruments for measuring blood pressure, as an example of how measurement is controlled in the case of instruments that are widely used in the hospital care environment.Despite the complexity and reach of the Brazilian health care sector, the research that was carried out not only revealed that the technical literature available is insufficient and unsuitable, but also that the measurement provided by laboratories and hospital care equipment are controlled in a high vulnerable manner. The diagnosis that was performed in a typical health care laboratory also brought to light a number of major challenges for the introduction of a laboratory quality system. Apart from the complex political and economic problems that affect the Brazilian health care system as a whole, the limitations associated with measurements are related to (i)the lack of a suitable metrology culture within the sector because this intrinsic factor hampers the implementation of a laboratory quality system and the latter is an essential requirement for proving that a laboratory is technically competent (accreditation), and (ii) the astonishing variety and number of models and types of instruments/equipment that are in use in this sector, which, as a rule, depend on sophisticated calibration procedures and require complex laboratory infrastructures and calibration methods and practices that are not available in the accredited laboratories within the laboratorynetworks that have been implemented in the country. This paper does not propose to exhaust such a broad and complex topic. Rather, its purpose is to consider the examples of two important areas that are clearly vulnerable in traditional sectors whose involvement with metrology does not represent an obstacle to the practitioner/user of the equipment. To this end, the research has focused on (a) the performance of sixteen scales that are available in six maternity hospitals and are used for controlling the mass of newborn infants as a strategy for the orientation of medical diagnoses and (b) the performance results of sphygmomanometers that are used for controlling blood pressure in hospital environments. This paper is part of a more encompassing initiative towards the improvement of laboratory quality in the Brazilian public health care sector and has been developed as a joint effort with the National Agency of Sanitary Vigilance (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária - ANVISA).

Abstract:
Volunteer home-based caregivers are critical role players in South Africa‘s health care system and in the South African government‘s strategy to fight HIV and AIDS. In order to achieve the aims that the government seeks to attain, it is important that the care and treatment provided to patients receiving community home-based care (CHBC) be of a high quality. While the need for quality care is supported by government and civil society, research indicates that it is not clear whether quality care is indeed being provided and therefore there is a need for research into the quality of CHBC. The research aimed to undertake a critical assessment of CHBC programmes to determine the quality of care provided by volunteer caregivers using social capital theory as a theoretical framework. The study examined the quality of CHBC by analysing the context of CHBC, by investigating the support that volunteer caregivers and their clients receive and by discussing the support that volunteer caregivers and their clients still need. The study used one-on-one in-depth interviews and focus groups to obtain relevant data. The participants included volunteer caregivers, clients and supervisors who took part in the one-on-one interviews. The focus groups consisted of key informants and supervisors respectively. The quantitative data consisted of descriptive statistics which helped describe the participants. The qualitative data was coded and themes and sub-themes were developed. The data was also analysed by an independent coder. The results showed that poverty, and the related problems of poor living conditions and a lack of food security affects the quality CHBC. In addition, unemployment and the problem of stipends also affect quality CHBC. Certain socio-economic factors were also found to lead people to choose to become volunteer caregivers and unemployment was found to be an important driving force behind the choice to undertake volunteer caregiving. Furthermore, the volunteer caregivers in the sample received organisational support from their supervisors and their fellow caregivers or peers. They also received social support from their families and their communities. Regarding the clients of the volunteer caregivers, it was found that they received a number of types of support including psycho- iv social counselling, spiritual counselling and care of a holistic nature. In addition, the study found that there is a need for standardised quality training of volunteer caregivers, which will equip them with multiple skills. It was also found that volunteer caregivers require mentoring and quality supervision in order to be able to provide quality CHBC to their clients. Government has the ability to put the necessary systems and structures in place, such as a scope of practice for volunteers, standardised training and monitoring and evaluation, to enable CHBC and its relevant role players to operate at optimum levels. It also has the authority to make the changes and to enforce rules. Furthermore, it has the ability to unite CHBC organisations and can create the necessary conditions that can lead to increased social capital. Furthermore, the study recommends that two additional dimensions of quality care be added to existing dimensions of quality in health care. The first is the holistic approach to caregiving and the second is social support systems, namely supervisor/mentor and peer support and family and community support. This second dimension is also closely linked to social capital and the networks that make up CHBC.

Abstract:
Patient monitoring equipment is evolving from smaller, less complex, installation systems to- wards large, complex, systems that require much resources. This led to the development of a new installation procedure involving a so called Delivery Center (DC). Introducing the DC instal- lation procedure affects all stakeholders, and this thesis aimed to assess how the DC installation procedure was perceived by those involved in it. It also investigated if there existed groupings among the participants who share points of views, and whether or not the DC should be kept. The study used Q-Methodology in order to retrieve opinions among employees at Philips who were involved in the installation of Philips patient monitoring equipment at New Karolinska Solna Phase 4. This study has shown that all involved persons to the DC installation procedure are positive to it. Although significant differences has been shown within the studied group, a positive atti- tude towards the concept of the DC has been found. The specific areas of quality management, environmental aspects, the work environment and the efficiency and utilizations of resources have been addressed. This study has also shown that within the participants of this study there exists three distinct groupings based on their opinions. The groups focuses respectively on processes, project planning and on the work environment. These groupings are shown to all have their own characteristics. Understanding them and taking them into consideration can likely make all participants more positive towards a future DC, and could also potentially make it even more efficient. The results shows that from the perspective of the involved stakeholders, a future DC should be kept, and it has also shown a number of areas where there is room for improvement.
Patientmonitoreringsutrustning håller på att utvecklas från mindre, låg-komplexa installation- ssystem mot större, komplexare, system som kräver mycket resurser. Detta har lett till utvecklin- gen av ett nytt installationsförfarande som involverar ett så kallat leveranscenter. Introduktionen av en leveranscenter-baserat installationsförfarande påverkar alla inblandade, och detta exam- ensarbete ämnade att utvärdera hur det leveranscenter-baserade installationsförfarandet upp- fattades av de involverade. Det undersökte också om det existerade grupper bland deltagarna som delar åsikter, och undersökte huruvida leveranscentret borde behållas. Arbetet använde Q-Methodology för att samla in åsikter bland alla de anstälda på Philips som var involverade i installationen av Philips patientmonitoreringsutrustning vid Nya Karolinska Solnas fas 4. Denna studie har visat att alla involverade personer i det leveranscenter-baserade installa- tionsförfarande är positivt inställda till det. Även om signifikanta skillnader bland de studerade grupperna har uppfattats, har en positiv attityd gentemot konceptet med leveranscentret hittats. De specifika områdena kvalitetshantering, miljöpåverkan, arbetsmiljö och effektivitet och uttnyt- jande av resurser har adresserats. Denna studie har också visat att det bland studiedeltagarna finns tre distinkta grupper baserat på åsikter. Grupperna fokuserar på processer, projektplaner- ing och arbetsmiljö. Grupparna har uppvisat egna karaktärsdrag. Förståelse för grupperna och att beakta dem kan troligen göra alla deltagarna än mer positiva gentemot ett framtida lever- anscenter, och även göra det effektivare. Resultaten visar att utifrån deltagarnas perspektiv att ett framtida leveranscenter bör behållas, och det visar även att det finns ett antal områden där det finns utvecklingspotential.

Abstract:
AbstractAlthough the social structure of Turkish society has changed from a broad family order to a nuclear family, family relations still hold an important place, where traditional elements dominate. Still, elderly people are cared for by their family in their home environment. Thus, the role of family members is crucial in taking care of elderly individuals. In Turkey, the responsibility of care is largely on women; the elderly’s wife, daughter, or daughter-in-law most often provides the care. Family members who provide care need support so that they can maintain their physical, psychological and mental health. At this point, Antonovsky’s salutogenic health model represents a positive and holistic approach to support individual’s health and coping. The salutogenic understanding of health emphasizes both physical, psychological, social, spiritual and cultural resources which can be utilized not only to avoid illness, but to promote health.With the rapidly increasing ageing population globally, health expenditures and the need for care are increasing accordingly. This increase reveals the importance of health-promoting practices in elderly care, which are important for the well-being and quality of life of older individuals and their families, as well as cost effectiveness. In Turkey, the emphasis on health-promoting practices is mostly focused in home-care services including examination, treatment, nursing care, medical care, medical equipment and device services, psychological support, physiotherapy, follow-up, rehabilitation services, housework (laundry, shopping, cleaning, food), personal care (dressing, bathroom, and personal hygiene help), 24-h emergency service, transportation, financial advice and training services within the scope of the social state policy for the elderly 65 years and older, whereas medical management of diseases serves elderly over the age of 85. In the Turkish health care system, salutogenesis can be used in principle for two aims: to guide health-promotion interventions in health care practice, and to (re)orient health care practice and research. The salutogenic orientation encompasses all elderly people independently of their position on the ease-/dis-ease continuum. This chapter presents health-promotion practices in the care of elderly home-dwelling people living in Turkey.
