Abstract:
Falls in hospital are common and have serious consequences for patients, including physical and psychological harm, increase length of stay and hospital costs. A systematic approach is required to report and identify factors contributing to in-hospital falls and develop interventions to reduce inpatient fall rates. Different hospital settings have different fall rates and characteristics depending on type of hospital service and admission diagnosis. Screening tools were developed to assess fall risk but are usually insensitive to be useful in reducing falls. There is also a need for prospectiv

Abstract:
Falls are a substantial hazard to the health and independence of older adults in the United States. It is purported that one in every three older adults fall annually, generally resulting in devastating injuries. A number of factors have been identified that influence the risk of falling in the elderly population. It is believed that providing assessments to identify an individual’s risk factors ahead of time and addressing these factors, to reduce or eliminate the risk(s), will reduce the frequency and severity of falls. Identifying and addressing these risk factors is a multifaceted concept,

Background: Geriatric falls are common and dangerous. Fall risk screening is one important element to a comprehensive fall reduction program. Local Problem: A geriatric inpatient unit in Massachusetts faced high fall rates. Established fall risk screening did not incorporate mobility assessment.

Fall accidents are one of the most serious problems leading to unintentional injuries and fatalities among older adults.

Abstract:
Falls are a significant problem in acute care, hospital settings, and can have serious consequences, especially for older patients. Fall prevention has therefore been recognised as an important area for research and intervention. In order to target interventions and use resources effectively, a major strategy of many fall prevention programmes has been the development and/or use of risk assessment tools to identify patients who are at high risk of falling. Although many tools have been developed, few have been rigorously tested, and there is currently no evidence to support the clinical utilit

Abstract External corrosion remains a dominant threat as seen by many North American pipeline operators worldwide. In the pursuit of more accurately managing this threat, many operators are finding their existing risk assessments incapable of providing the information required. This is because many current risk assessments fail to consider what the authors have titled the “essential elements” of a risk assessment. This paper will outline the application and benefit of these essential elements as they apply to the example threat of external corrosion.

Abstract:
Climate change will increase weather induced risks to forests, and thus effective adaptation measures are needed. In Säätyö project funded by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, we have summarized the data that facilitate adaptation measures, developed weather and climate services that benefit forestry, and mapped what kind of new weather and climate services are needed in forestry. In addition, we have recorded key further development needs to promote adaptation. The Säätyö project developed a service product describing the harvesting conditions of trees based on the soil moisture asses

Abstract:
The orientation of constructed levee embankments relative to alluvial swales is a useful measure for identifying regions susceptible to backward erosion piping (BEP). This research was conducted to create an automated, efficient process to classify patterns and orientations of swales within the Lower Mississippi Valley (LMV) to support levee risk assessments. Two machine learning algorithms are used to train the classification models: a convolutional neural network and a U-net. The resulting workflow can identify linear topographic features but is unable to reliably differentiate swales from o

Abstract:
The paleontological resources (fossils) of Katmai National Park and Preserve (also referred to as ?the park? or ?Katmai? throughout this report) record the evolution of the park?s ancient life throughout most of the Mesozoic Era and portions of the Cenozoic Era (see Table 1 for a geologic time scale). A focused condition assessment (FCA) of the paleontological resources of Katmai was conducted in 2021; this report summarizes the findings of the FCA, including information on the park?s geology and paleontology, management issues related to paleontological resources, and the results of a field s

Abstract:
The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) traditionally uses two metrics to evaluate the maintenance of coastal navigation projects: tonnage at the associated port (representing relative importance) and the controlling depth in the channel (representing operating condition). These are incorporated into a risk-based decision framework directing funds where channel conditions have deteriorated and the disrupted tonnage potential is the highest. However, these metrics fail to capture shipper demand for the maintained depth service provided by the USACE through dredging. Using automatic identificatio

Abstract:
Facilitating access for MSMEs to capital markets, for example through the issuance of mini-bonds, is a key objective of policymakers and regulations in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, there is no systematic evidence regarding the development of these markets in the region, nor of the obstacles to their growth. This document reports on the results of eight case studies and a large survey of regulators and market participants in the region. Some key conclusions emerge. First, these instruments must be specifically tailored to MSMEs, providing more flexibility than those offered to larg

This report is one of a series of reports documenting the methods and findings of a multi-year, multi-disciplinary project coordinated by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER and funded by the California Earthquake Authority (CEA). The overall project is titled “Quantifying the Performance of Retrofit of Cripple Walls and Sill Anchorage in Single-Family Wood-Frame Buildings,” henceforth referred to as the “PEER–CEA Project.” The overall objective of the PEER–CEA Project is to provide scientifically based information (e.g., testing, analysis, and resulting loss models) that
