Abstract:
Medical service trips have a long and distinguished history. In the United States,interest in medical outreach trips has grown substantially, as medical schools andnon-governmental organizations support numerous overseas endeavors at an estimatedcost of 250 million dollars a year. Although providing care to those in need is arewarding experience, the question that needs to be answered is whether these tripsdo more harm than good. We describe our experience during a medical service trip toEnsenada, Mexico. We treated over 500 people for numerous problems, but due to thelack of services were not able to monitor or ensure follow-up. Did we do more harmby providing medications that can have serious side effects? Recommendations havebeen developed to help short-term international medical service trips provide the bestoverall experience for the participants and the best care for the patients.

Abstract:
As the poorest Western Hemisphere country, Haiti has a long history of health disparity including elevated rates of hypertension, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis. In the summer of 2012, a four-week knowledge and skills based course, including a one-week medical mission, was developed to meet the need for medical care in Haiti, and to provide an interprofessional, service-learning environment to enhance students’ cultural competence. A nonprofit volunteer organization that connects healthcare people with a community in need assisted in developing the mission trip. Background on the culture of Haiti, medical education, and development of nutrition education materials were incorporated into the course. Students participated in classroom activities, assisted with development of nutrition education materials, and maintained a reflective journal during the mission trip. Basic nutrition education, nutrition assessment and evaluation, and breastfeeding instruction were provided to Haitian patients. Additionally, students and faculty interacted with each member of the healthcare team; facilitating a greater understanding of an interprofessional approach to medical care. Incorporating a medical mission trip into dietetics education provides an opportunity to increase cultural competence of faculty and students while providing another outlet for students to gain hands-on experience. Interprofessional service-learning further enhances the educational experience and should be considered as a worthwhile educational technique. Programs looking to incorporate such a mission trip into their curriculum can follow a similar scheme of course development.

Abstract:
Long-distance trips are less frequent than short-distance urban trips, but contribute significantly to the total distance traveled, and thus to congestion and transport-related emissions. This paper develops a long-distance travel demand model for the province of Ontario, Canada. In this paper, long-distance demand includes non-recurrent overnight trips and daytrips longer than 40 km, as defined by the Travel Survey for Residents in Canada (TSRC). We developed a microscopic discrete choice model including trip generation, destination choice, and mode choice. The model was estimated using travel surveys, which did not provide data about destination attractiveness and modal level of service. Therefore, a data collection method was designed to obtain publicly available data from the location-based social network Foursquare and from the online trip planning service Rome2rio. In the first case, Foursquare data characterized land uses and predominant activities of the destination alternatives, by the number of user check-ins at different venue types (i.e., ski areas, outdoor or medical activities, etc.). In the second case, the use of Rome2rio data described the modal alternatives for each observed trip. Combining data from travel surveys, Foursquare, and Rome2rio, coefficients of the model were estimated econometrically. It was found that the Foursquare data on number of check-ins at destinations was statistically significant, especially for leisure trips, and improved the goodness of fit compared with models that only used population and employment. Additionally, Rome2rio mode-specific variables were found to be significant for mode choice selection, making the resulting model sensitive to changes in travel time, transit fares, or service frequencies.

Abstract:
One approach to preparing students to engage in culturally diverse health-care settings around the world is to incorporate faculty-led short-term cultural immersion programs in medically underserved nations. This reflective summary analyzes the impact of a faculty-led international health-care trip on students' global health-care experience and needed health-care services in developing countries. A content analysis of the journals of two advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) faculty members was performed to gain perspectives on a trip with undergraduate and graduate nursing students and medical students to a small city in Nicaragua. This article examines the personal and professional growth achieved, and the challenges faced, when managing acute and chronic diseases with limited resources in an unfamiliar country. Themes identified included anxieties of planning, provider versus faculty role, students in action, networking, nurturing behaviors, advocating, and mentoring self-sustainability. Faculty-led international health-care trips both add a needed service to developing countries' health-care needs and offer students the experience of health care from a global perspective.

Abstract:
Background: The role and function of Emergency Medical Service (EMS) in people’s health and the need for continuous evaluation of its function, especially delivering services to the patients, are essential. So, the present study was conducted to determine the time indices of prehospital emergency services in Ardabil City, Iran. Materials and Methods: This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study. Out of all calls recorded in EMS centers of Ardabil in the first 6 months of 2020, 327 calls, which resulted in the patient’s transfer to a hospital, were randomly selected. Then, the required data, including time indices and demographic information, were extracted from EMS forms filled by a medical emergency technician for each mission. The obtained data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean, standard deviation, and inferential statistics, including 1-way analysis of variance and the Chi-square test in SPSS v. 22. Results: In terms of time indices, the average delay time (1.01 minutes), the response time (7.87 minutes), on-scene time (13.81 minutes), transport time (12.53 minutes), the total run time (transport time, response time, and on-scene time) (35.15 minutes), and the round trip time (52.50) had been recorded. According to the Chi-square test, there was a significant relationship between the total run time (transport time, response time, and on-scene time), transport time, round trip time, and the location of the emergency base. Conclusion: EMS time indices were at the desired level. Updating information systems, ambulances, medical equipment, and holding training courses for personnel working in this system can effectively improve time indicators.

Abstract:
<p>Tenjolaya Subdistrict, Tamansari Subdistrict, and Ciomas Subdistrict of Bogor District has an area of 61.74 km<sup>2</sup>, divided into 25 villages, and 1 urban-village with those total populations density are 4,819.7 people/km<sup>2</sup>. The increasing population and significant development in the region has increased the movement of traffic flows to and from the region, which is expected to cause some particular problems in traffic congestion on Road segments. This research aims to make the model of the trip generation and the trip attraction caused by land use such as education area, medical, office, lodging, physical fitness center and tourism in the three sub-districts. MKJI 2017 is used as a data processing guideline for the method of calculation of transport analysis. Then use Trip Generation Manual and modelled into SATURN software. Total trip generations from 3 sub-districts of the study area are 4,403.78 trips/hour, and with total trip attractions are 6,165.33 SMP/hour. The design of the transportation modelling equation for Ciomas subdistrict, Tamansari District, and Tenjolaya subdistrict is 21,230 – 0,950 (X). The Model of trip generation and trip attraction has a value of R2 = 0,9687. The level of service is obtained index in the range of A until D, with an average is B, indicating a relatively stable condition. although in some areas, it is still necessary to repair and improve road network infrastructure, and strive for a comfortable and efficient alternative public transport system (time, cost, energy) to transfer people from private vehicles to Public transport.</p>

Abstract:
As most would say, traveling to China is a trip of a lifetime. With the support of many at UNCG and from various connections in China, we have provided undergraduate students a cultural experience that will be transformative, one that they may be able to use in their profession, in future international travel experiences or when they meet up with others from another country, especially those unable to communicate in English. The short-term study abroad experience incorporated a number of activities both in preparation as well as from the day of departure to completion of the trip. The way the program is arranged is for students to visit three major Chinese cities (Beijing, Wuhan and Shanghai) and engage in service learning while participating in local health care experiences. Undergraduate nursing students complete some of their clinical hours and the anthropology students dip their toes in doing fieldwork in a vast country with a wide range of culture groups, and differing approaches to health care, nutrition, environmental conditions and ideas for solutions to many contemporary problems facing the Chinese people of the twenty first century.

Abstract:
P188 It is currently recommended by the American Heart Association that both stroke and myocardial infarction (MI) patients be treated with urgency, as time dependent medical therapies are available for both conditions. Since stroke symptoms are often vague, it has been hypothesized that stroke patients may not be treated with the same urgency as MI patients by emergency medical services (EMS). To examine this hypothesis, EMS transport times were examined for both stroke and MI patients who used a paramedic-level, county based EMS system for transportation to a single hospital during 1999. Patients were identified by their hospital discharge diagnosis as stroke (ICD-9 430–438) or MI (ICD-9 410–414). Trip sheets with the corresponding transport times were retrospectively obtained from the 911 center. Thirteen patients with both a stroke and MI discharge diagnosis code were excluded from these analyses, leaving 75 stroke and 127 MI patients. While stroke patients were older than MI patients (median 81.1 vs. 73.3 years, p=0.01), the distribution of gender (56.9% women) and ethnicity (68.3% white) was not significantly different between stroke and MI patients. The use of lights and sirens to the scene (84.4%) and to the hospital (10.6%) also was not significantly different between stroke and MI patients. Mean EMS transport times are presented below in minutes, with the corresponding Wilcoxon rank sum test. In this study, all components of EMS transport times were similar for stroke and MI patients. Multiple linear regression predicting transport times confirmed these results. In this single county, EMS urgency for delivery of care was not different for stroke and MI patients.

Abstract:
Introduction: Rural and remote areas of Nepal frequently host short-term medical teams responding both to disasters and chronic health needs. Collaboration between visiting medical teams and Host Health Personnel (HHP) has been identified as an important foundation of quality, effective, and sustainable health care for host communities. Published research on collaborative efforts in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the outcomes of these missions is minimal. Particularly absent is the perspective of HHP on the extent and methods of collaboration. Methods: To explore the experiences of collaboration of HHP with visiting mobile medical teams in a rural region of Nepal this project used qualitative semi structured interviews and analysis through the lens of Critical Social Theory. NVivo© by QSR International was used to organise the interviews into themes to assist analysis. Results: Few teams engaged in good collaboration with HHP throughout their mission. Interpersonal skills of key leaders were highlighted by HHP as foundational for collaboration, resulting in three major themes; Presence: immersion in the context of health needs and openness to learning and change; Dignifying: pertaining to respect, reciprocal arrangements, and sensitivity to social status and organisational position; and Engaging: the initiation of discussions, objective development, and engagement in the offering, denying, and rejecting of services. Conclusion: Despite ongoing calls for improved collaboration between hosts and visiting medical professionals there is still a lack of collaboration. This can lead to relationship breakdown between hosts and visiting teams with consequences for patient care. Medical teams responding to disasters and engaged in specialist medical services need to ensure team leadership has the interpersonal skills required for collaboration and sufficient organisational flexibility to share decision making with HHP.

Abstract:
The current system and working status of medical rescue service related to mass accidents has undergone changes in recent years, including gradual development, progress, modification and improvement. Together with that development, the conditions and opportunities needed for provision of timely and high-quality urgent pre-hospital care have transformed and improved automatically. The provision of professional pre-hospital urgent care for conditions endangering human life has been becoming the basic contents of activity of the rescue service. The care can be provided through operation centres that should receive and evaluate distress calls on line 155 and through field rescue vehicles pulling out of a network of trip points all over the country. The unification of the procedures and organization when settling mass accidents constitutes an indispensable measure leading to improvement of such interventions. The adequate procedure may lead to life rescue and to mitigation of the consequences of injuries for a number of persons equal to the number of the whole year of standard activity of the medical rescue service. Of course, the opposite may apply too. Therefore each physician or rescue worker should know the basic rules of behaviour at the point of the accident. The goal of the submitted dissertation is to map the general suggestions for the work of the medical rescue service of the Czech Republic, to analyze three medical rescue services related to mass accidents - that of the South Bohemian Region, the South Moravian Region and the Vysočina Region - and to compare weak and strong points of the medical rescue service of the Czech Republic based on the analysis of the three organizations in connection to mass accidents - of the Medical rescue service of the South Bohemian Region, the South Moravian Region and the Vysočina Region. Based on the SWOT analysis of selected medical rescue services, it was possible to identify their strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Each of the analyzed medical rescue services can see the opportunities of their respective organizations in other points. The medical rescue service of the South Bohemian Region sees its opportunities in the improvement of the education and training centre; the medical rescue service of the South Moravian Region sees its opportunities in the development of solution of mass accidents and the medical rescue service of the Vysočina Region sees its opportunities in finishing the urgent admission and first aid for schools; but all the analyzed medical rescue services see their threats in the expected lack of funds, caused by funding of new ambulances or new trip points or by increasing wages in the public sector. The lack of physicians in permanent employment is not only a matter of the above stated rescue services. The problem has countrywide character at present. The importance of the lack of physicians is not proportionally dependent only on cases of mass accidents. At present, it can be stated in general that there are multiple causes of lack of interest for internal work in rescue service. Low attractiveness of work in ambulance crews of rescue services becomes one of the main causes. Also the working conditions are usually incomparable. The crew of the rescue service must perform actions of pre-hospital urgent care in field under all and any circumstances. Another difference, as compared to the work of a physician in the hospital, consists in the need of right and quick decision-making without the opportunity to consult a specialist and without support of laboratory examinations. So the rescue service physician must constantly master different situations, from childbirth to post-mortem examination.

Abstract:
In recent years, the term "Healthy Communities" has become a catch phrase among planners, health promotion workers, social workers and government agencies, and increasing numbers of professionals have taken a role in the development of healthy communities projects. The literature on the healthy communities concept has increased in size and scope. Yet the concept itself is byno means clearly defined. Nor is there a standard method for developing a successful healthy communities project, or a regional collaboration of healthy communities projects. The question remains, when a planner undertakes a role in the development of a healthy communities project, what are the most important factors to consider? This thesis examines the influence of various project inputs on the ability of a regional healthy communities project to achieve its objectives. The thesis uses a case study of the Tri-City Health Promotion Project, a collaborative healthy communities project undertaken in the cities of Castlegar, Trail and Nelson in the West Kootenay region of British Columbia. In this study, documentary analysis and interviews with Tri-City project staff illuminate the importance of several influences on a regional healthy communities project. Some of these are: the approach used by the participants (task- orprocess-orientation), the resources and constraints specific to each community, the context from which the project grew, the personalities of those involved, the ability of the collaborating communities to work together, and the relationship between the community and regional bodies in the project structure. Conclusions: While every healthy communities project will be affected differently by various inputs, in the case of the Tri-City Health Promotion Project, the relationship between the regional and community bodies in the project structure had the greatest influence on the ability of the community Steering Committees to achieve their goals. Planners working on a regional healthy communities project must carefully examine the design of the project, in order to develop a structure which enhances the working relationship between regional and community bodies. This is particularly crucial in the healthy communities context, where decision-making power often resides at the community level, rather than being centralized in the regional body.

Abstract:
This article appears in theOxford Handbook of New Audiovisual Aestheticsedited by John Richardson, Claudia Gorbman, and Carol Vernallis. “Multimedia” is not simply a genre category but also a mentality. Aesthetic thinking has been conditioned by text-based approaches according to which meaning is inherent. By contrast, multimedia practice and theory are predicated on dynamic interaction of media and generation of emergent meaning in real time. Digital and Internet technologies have enabled significant extension of multimedia practices, transforming principles of montage and extreme intertextuality into a core cultural practice. The chapter illustrates this through a case study of the remix trio Eclectic Method, whose work ranges from Web-based multimedia to live performance and from subversion of copyright to innovative forms of marketing for multinational corporations. The chapter also considers the collision between such practices and intellectual property law, which identifies creativity with individual authorship. The media business has been based on the exploitation of intellectual property, but aesthetic and technological developments suggest that it is becoming a service industry.

Abstract:
Abstract Aluminum coatings minimum 1.8 mm thick are applied to water-cooled proton beam collimators used in the manufacture of medical isotopes on the TRIUMF TR30 cyclotrons in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The sprayed surface of the collimators is made from silver. These collimators are used to trim the proton beam so that only a designated area on the isotope production target is irradiated with protons. Aluminum is used because its activation products at the energies used have short half-lives, thus minimizing the amount of collateral radioactivity produced. The aluminum is sprayed using an Axial III plasma spray torch. In service, the collimators are subject to high heat fluxes due to the proton beam. Service life, heat transfer and application data are provided in this paper.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper provides a study of the potential impacts of climate change on intermittent renewable energy resources, battery storage, and resource adequacy in Public Service Company of New Mexico’s Integrated Resource Plan for 2020–2040. Climate change models and available data were first evaluated to determine uncertainty and potential changes in solar irradiance, temperature, and wind speed in NM in the coming decades. These changes were then implemented in solar and wind energy models to determine impacts on renewable energy resources in NM. Results for the extreme climate-change scenario show that the projected wind power may decrease by ∼13% due to projected decreases in wind speed. Projected solar power may decrease by ∼4% due to decreases in irradiance and increases in temperature in NM. Uncertainty in these climate-induced changes in wind and solar resources was accommodated in probabilistic models assuming uniform distributions in the annual reductions in solar and wind resources. Uncertainty in battery storage performance was also evaluated based on increased temperature, capacity fade, and degradation in round-trip efficiency. The hourly energy balance was determined throughout the year given uncertainties in the renewable energy resources and energy storage. The loss of load expectation (LOLE) was evaluated for the 2040 No New Combustion portfolio and found to increase from 0 days/year to a median value of ∼2 days/year due to potential reductions in renewable energy resources and battery storage performance and capacity. A rank-regression analyses revealed that battery round-trip efficiency was the most significant parameter that impacted LOLE, followed by solar resource, wind resource, and battery fade. An increase in battery storage capacity to ∼30,000 MWh from a baseline value of ∼14,000 MWh was required to reduce the median value of LOLE to ∼0.2 days/year with consideration of potential climate impacts and battery degradation.

Abstract:
Social media is playing an increasingly important role in many aspects of tourism. While planning a trip, tourists look for information on social media, consider the comments of users who have already visited the destination, and share their experiences about the destination during and after the holiday. Therefore, social media has been proven as an excellent channel for promotion and communication with tourists, as well as an effective complaint management system. This topic has been the subject of many studies that explored the role of social media in promoting, building the image and brand of a tourist destination, while few studies have explored the impact of social media on tourist destination choice. Therefore, the subject of this paper is to analyze the influence of social media on choosing the tourist destination. The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of the availability of information related to the destination and user-generated content through social media on the tourist destination choice. Data were collected using the online survey technique, and research hypotheses were tested by regression analysis. The study results indicated the importance of the availability of information about the destination and a word-of-mouth propaganda on social media while choosing a destination. The theoretical contribution is reflected in new information regarding the role of social media in tourism, which is limited in the domestic scientific literature. As a practical contribution, the study provides information that may be useful to tourism service providers in creating a promotional campaign on the Internet.

Abstract:
The result of misunderstanding science by students is their inability as future citizens to impact science public policies. The solution argued last year included creating courses in science studies serving two purposes: destroy students’ stereotypical certainties about science and help them become “historical realists” in regard to scientific practices. But we also speculated that dismissing the myth of scientific objectivity and teaching the historical and sociological underpinnings of science might lead to turning students into epistemological relativists. We now have a solution to the social-constructivist trap stemming from studies of science. This paper inquires into American contexts such as scientific illiteracy, post-modernism in high schools and colleges, and the media, all of which help produce a generalized inability to demarcate science from pseudoscience. Science studies courses guide students into both making epistemological distinctions and understanding the nature of science. Informing methodologies, course format, and bibliography follow.

Abstract:
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is an industrially-important and widely used amorphous thermoplastic on which billions of dollars are spent annually in USA. Its applications cover impact-mitigation, infrastructural and laboratory piping systems, sports goods, musical instruments, automotive trim components and bumper bars, medical devices, enclosures, protective headgear, marine craft, luggage, domestic appliances, toys, consumer goods, edgings for industrial goods, etc. Its use to contain impact damage is primary; hence continued research in this area is warranted. The novelty and contribution of this work lies in its employment of more deeply insightful parameters and methods of characterization in acoustic emission and ultrasonics, as well as advanced optical microstructural characterization with sophisticated instrumentation, on one hand, and the wider correlations and conclusions now made possible by these means. In the work which this paper reports, the impact response behavior of ABS material under various levels of impact energy was investigated using results obtained from the mechanical test, and parameters obtained from non-destructive test methods such as Acoustic Emission (AE), Ultrasonics, and Optical Inspection. The ABS plates were impacted by a hemispherical steel projectile in a drop-weight impact tester. Two AE sensors were placed on the surfaces of ABS plates during the impact tests. After the impact tests were completed, ultrasonic C-Scan investigation of the damaged areas was also carried out, and sections were inspected under the microscope. Correlations between damage areas and various parameters of the non-destructive diagnostic test methods utilized were explored. ABS is one of the most highly impact-resistant materials utilized in industry. Its characterization under impact is therefore very important, in order to devise ways of enhancing properties that would make the material or structures made from it, better in service. In this work, plate samples of rectangular shape were subjected to central impacts from a spherical impactor released from various heights. It is of interest to know how the impact propagates through the plate thickness, and how the microstructure is affected from point to point, both laterally and depth-wise. The issues of energy transfer and dissipation are significant in terms of the effectiveness of the material as an impact deadener. Three non-destructive methods are utilized in this work for comprehensiveness and effectiveness. The AE approach is broadly divisible into two — classical, and transient. The former has dozens of descriptive parameters per each of the three dimensions, while the latter, which is based on the waveform and its several possible transforms, adds even many more possibilities. Thus, characterization in AE is particularly rich, and, when a sufficient number of appropriate parameters are utilized, has a very high probability of correctly depicting what is really going on in the material or structure under inspection. The ultrasonic scan reveals in color-code the variation of the material homogeneity throughout the scanned space, which, in each case, covered the whole plate. This normally provides a good picture of damage and its intensity variation in the test piece. The microstructure of selected parts of the test pieces before and after impact was inspected with a violet laser microscope. In this instrument, reflecting light from the white light source is detected with a color CCD camera. This camera obtains color information at the peak (focal point) detected with the laser light source on a pixel basis, thus enabling a real color examination, which SEMs cannot do. This instrument also uses a pin hole confocal optical system which enables high accuracy measurement and high definition examination by eliminating reflecting light from points other than the peak. The results obtained showed clear relationships between energy and geometrical and material metrics of damage through the damage zone and shed more light on possible pathways to the desired enhancement of impact resistance in this case.

Abstract:
Public transit ridership in California declined in the five years before the pandemic of 2020–21 and dropped significantly further after the pandemic began. A sharp downward step in the level of transit boarding occurred after February 2020, and continues to the date of this report as a result of the public-health guidance on social distancing, expanded work-at-home, and a travel mode shift from public transit to private cars. A critical issue has come to the foreground of public transportation policy, namely, how to increase the quality and geographic reach of transit service to better serve the essential trips of mobility disadvantaged citizens who do not have access to private vehicle travel. The research focus of this report is an examination of the circumstances where fixed route bus route service could cost-effectively be replaced by on-demand microtransit, with equivalent overall zone-level efficiency and a higher quality of complete trip service. Research methods were reviews of documented agency experience, execution of simple simulations, and sketch-level analysis of 2019 performance reported in the National Transit Database. Available evidence is encouraging and suggestive, but not conclusive. The research found that substitutions of flexible microtransit for fixed route buses are already being piloted across the U.S., with promising performance results. The findings imply that action steps could be taken in California to expand and refine an emphasis on general purpose microtransit in corridors and zones with a relatively high fraction of potential travelers who are mobility disadvantaged, and where traditional bus routes are capturing fewer than 15 boardings per vehicle hour. To be sufficiently productive as fixed route replacements, microtransit service technologies in the same or larger zones need to be capable of achieving vehicle boardings of five per hour, a challenge worth addressing with technology applications. Delivery of microtransit service can be undertaken through contracts with a growing set of private sector firms, which are developing processes to merge general purpose customers with those now assigned to ADA-required paratransit and Medi-Cal-supported non-emergency medical transport.
