Abstract:
Cardio-respiratory dysfunction, sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis are responsible for a large numberof deaths in the neonatal population. Despite ecient monitoring and screening in Intensive CareUnits, diagnosis prior to clinical symptoms remains a dicult task. Based on Heart Rate Monitoring,the state-of-the-art HeRO system indicates the risk for sepsis and has already proven its ability toreduce mortality in the neonatal ICU. Recent studies have shown that a particular respiratory behaviorknown as ABD-events, can be used as a physiomarker for sepsis and is therefore an early warningsign. D

Abstract:
<p>Yellow warning signs are an important and abundant type of traffic control device. Improving warning signs could be a cost-effective countermeasure at hazardous locations, especially rural locations where approximately 61% of the Nation's traffic fatalities occur. The use of fluorescent yellow sheeting in place of standard yellow sheeting provides a method to increase the conspicuity of the traffic sign while conforming to the guidelines specified by the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The 3M Corporation, and later other companies, developed a long-lasting fluorescent yellow retr

The management dilemma emanates from the inadequacy and weakly detailed turnaround models available for use by entrepreneurs and turnaround practitioners in South Africa.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) är ett bedömningsinstrument för utvärdering av patienters vitalparametrar. Verktygets funktion är att genom strukturerade observationer identifiera patienter med sviktande vitala funktioner, och således kunna vidta åtgärder innan patienten avlider eller kräver intensivvård. Nyttan av MEWS inom onkologisk heldygnsvård är än så länge dokumenterat i mycket liten utsträckning. En studie från 2012 indikerar att MEWS inte är ett effektivt verktyg för att förutse försämringar hos onkologiska patienter.   Syfte: Att undersöka om patienter inom onkologisk v

In 2016, suicide death rate in the males is about 2.1 times that of the females (Ministry of Health and Welfare, 2016). Compared to other occupations, Army consists of mainly males and it is characterized by hierarchy, obedience, and mobilization of duties which all make soldiers a high-pressure population.

New technologies have made it much more difficult for individual investors to detect and safeguard themselves from these increasingly complex scams. Over the past ten years corporate governance principles have been tested, and the weaknesses found in ethical values have made it even more important to be exceedingly aware of the inner workings of corporations. Much research has been done analyzing these companies and their leadership to find the reasons behind

Abstract Background Unrecognised patient deterioration in acutely ill hospital patients is a widely acknowledged problem. Early recognition of physiological derangements has resulted in reduced preventable adverse patient outcomes. The development and introduction of early warning systems (EWS) into hospital settings have been implemented as an initiative to address early detection of patient deterioration. Early warning systems comprise of a patient vital sign monitoring tool and escalation of care response protocol. While EWS have been implemented in all Australian healthcare facilities, lit

Abstract:
Surgical patients are at risk of experiencing clinical deterioration events, especially when transferred to general wards during the postoperative period of their hospital stay. Cur rently, such events are detected by combining Early Warning Scores (EWS) with manual and periodical vital signs measurements, performed by nurses every 4 to 6 hours. Hence, deterioration may remain unnoticed for hours, delaying patient treatment, which might lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Also, EWS are inadequate to predict events so physiologically complex. So that early warning of deterioration
