Abstract:
The article consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to general questions that are related to uncertainty: causes and sources of uncertainties appearance, classification of uncertainties in economic systems and approach to their assessment. In the second part the concept of maximin, based on the principle of guaranteed result (Wald’s principle) is considered. In this case, maximin is interpreted from viewpoint of two-level hierarchical game. On the basis of the maximin concept, a guaranteed solution in outcomes for K-stage positional single-criterion linear quadratic problem under uncert

Medical Laboratories Accreditation is covered by ISO 15189:2012 - Medical Laboratories — Requirements for Quality and Competence. In Portugal, accreditation processes are held under the auspices of the Portuguese Accreditation Institute (IPAC), which applies the Portuguese edition (NP EN ISO 15189:2014). Accordingly, Medical Laboratories accreditation processes now require the estimate of measurement uncertainty (MU) associated to the results. The Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) describes the calculation of MU, not contemplating the specific aspects of medical labor

Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis aimed to investigate the way in which individuals who have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia make meaning in the face of medical uncertainty. Medical uncertainty in fibromyalgia has been found to be a defining feature of the condition, as much as specific clinical symptoms. The argument is supported by evidence from the literature as well as through empirical studies presented here. A review of the history and review of current medical literature on fibromyalgia established that little consensus exists among experts about the condition, creating uncertainty. Bi

Abstract:
It is known that slight variations in total dose delivered to the patient in external beam photon radiotherapy can significantly alter the probability of tumour control. For this reason, ICRU has recommended a goal of $ pm$5% precision in the dose delivery to the target volume. Several investigators have analyzed the degree of precision routinely achieved and have come to the conclusion that ICRU's goal can be attained, but in practice this is just barely so.<br>We have measured the degree of precision which exists in our institution by examining each step of the radiotherapy process on a coba

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with plants, chronic illness and medicine in Oku, Northwest Region, Cameroon. I focus on patient strategies to obtain effective medical outcomes, and on how such outcomes may be obtained through seeking traditional medicine in Oku. I argue that biomedical notions of efficacy do not appropriately represent the central and diverse roles that plants play in traditional medicine nor do they correctly represent how people in Oku evaluate the efficacy of plant-based traditional medicine. I argue instead that efficacy must be understood in terms of the emic concept of power.

This study explores the phenomenon of the informal medical consultation, a communication event in which an individual asks for medical information, advice, or care from an off-duty health professional with whom the individual has no formal patient-provider relationship. Using surveys and interviews, the study describes these consultations from the perspective of the health care professional and the informal patient. The study explores foundational theories that offer explanations for the phenomenon. The theories considered include social support, decision-making, social exchange, perceived par

Abstract:
Little is known about the lives of undocumented immigrants in Canada, and even less about the experiences of undocumented youth. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, this thesis examines the complex interplay between immigration policies and the lives of undocumented youth (14-20 years old) from Latin-American and Caribbean countries living in Montreal. There are two main objectives of this thesis. Firstly, through an examination of Canadian laws and court decisions in recent decades, it aims to investigate how immigration policies define undocumented minors as both threatening Others and vulner

Abstract:
Healthcare is an organizational field that has undergone profound change in the last few decades, an era characterized by market reform. Healthcare production has revealed both economic and quality problems in past eras, and reporting on these problems can be seen to have contributed to pressures for social reform. Yet, the move toward more market-oriented governance structures and design solutions also reflects a wider isomorphic institutional tendency for organizing social order.The conceptual frame work of this study takes a pessimistic stance on whether the market reform has achieved the i

Abstract:
Dynamically delivered intensity modulated beams (IMBs) pose unique verification problems that may be addressed with the use of integrating continuous 3D dosimeters such as gel based Fricke dosimeters. Accurate knowledge of the ability of these dosimeters to measure adequately and precisely the delivered dose is a prerequisite for their clinical use. The magnetic properties of the ferrous and ferric ions present in the gel based Fricke dosimeter after its irradiation are the basis for the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the measurement of dose.

Abstract:
The authors have studied daily decision-making processes in groups under uncertainty, with an exploratory field study in the medical domain. The work follows the tradition of naturalistic decision-making (NDM) research. It aims to understand how groups in this high reliability context conceptualize and internalize uncertainties, and how they handle them in order to achieve effective decision-making in their everyday activities. Analysis of the survey data shows that uncertainty is thought of in terms of issues and sources (as identified by previous research), but also (possibly a domain-specif
