228. Advanced home care : Can patients' opinions on the quality of care be replaced by those of family members

Author

Wilde-Larsson, B., Larsson, Gerry, Rizell Carlsson, S., Wilde-Larsson, B., Larsson, Gerry, and Rizell Carlsson, S.

Abstract

Background. Advanced medical care in the patient's home setting is becoming more common. Many of the patients who receive this kind of care have severe illnesses and are unable to respond to questions about the quality of care. The research question was: are the patients’ opinions congruent with those of family members? Aim. To explore and compare the relationship between patients’ perception of the quality of care and close family members’ perception of this care as well as their perception of the patients’ perception. Methods. Sixty-seven patients receiving advanced home care, 82 family members (54 matched patient + family member pairs) participated. Data were collected using a short version of the quality from the patient's perspective questionnaire modified to advanced home care. Results. A high degree of perceptual congruence was found between patients and their family members. The similarity was also high between family members’ own opinion and their appraisal of how the patient perceived the care. A subgroup of family members who met the patient once a week or less often deviated from this pattern. Conclusion. Patients’ views on the quality of care are congruent with the opinions of family members if they meet every day (live together) and share the same everyday and care-related experiences. The results can be understood in the light of empathic accuracy theory. Relevance to clinical practice. The findings of this study have important implications for clinical nursing practice. Family members’ perception of the quality of care may be a valuable data source for nurses in the case of advanced home care if the patient and family member share the same everyday, care-related experiences, otherwise family members’ perception tend to be more critical than those of the patients themselves.

229. A glance at the history of nuclear medicine

Abstract

The development of nuclear medicine has resulted in several effective routine methods in diagnosis and therapy. There is an ongoing discussion about the future of activity based on the fast development of ultrasound, CT and MR. In such discussions, it is often forgotten that nuclear medicine is also a dynamic diagnostic tool under continuous progress. As seen from this historical review, nuclear medicine has grown from quite simple in vitro tests to very advanced methods to image organ function. This is the result of the development of radiopharmaceuticals and instrumentation. Today, development is moving towards what is called receptor scintigraphy, i.e., the use of radiopharmaceuticals which are very specific to certain diseases, for instance, tumours. Even at present there is no other method for early detection of bone metastases than bone scintigraphy. Also, there is no other method to determine the regional myocardial blood flow both at stress and at rest, than myocardial scintigraphy. Nuclear medicine will remain an important diagnostic tool as long as it employs people with engagement and interest. Such people will also guarantee that the hospital management will supply the activity with funds for the necessary investments.

247. Towards an inter-organisational knowledge transfer framework for SMEs

Author

Carlsson, S., Chen, Shizhong, Duan, Yanqing, Edwards, John S., Carlsson, S., Chen, Shizhong, Duan, Yanqing, and Edwards, John S.

Abstract

This paper aims to develop a framework for SMEs to help them understand, and thus to improve, the process of knowledge exchange with their customers or suppliers. Through a review of the literature on knowledge transfer, organisational learning, social network theory and electronic networks, the key actors, key factors and their relationships in the process are identified. Finally, a framework containing all above points is proposed.

248. Group perceptions of knowledge management

Author

Carlsson, S., Edwards, John S., Shaw, Duncan, Collier, Paul M., Carlsson, S., Edwards, John S., Shaw, Duncan, and Collier, Paul M.

Abstract

This paper reports preliminary results of a project investigating how staff in UK organisations perceive knowledge management in their organisation as a group. The group setting appears to be effective in surfacing opinions and enabling progress in both understanding and action to be made. Among the findings thus far are the importance of the knowledge champion role and the state of the “knowledge management life cycle” in each organisation, and continuing confusion between knowledge, information and mechanisms.

249. Online routing in convex subdivisions

Author

Bose, P., Brodnik, A., Carlsson, S., Demaine, ED, Fleischer, R., Lopez-Ortiz, A., Morin, P., Munro, JI, Bose, P., Brodnik, A., Carlsson, S., Demaine, ED, Fleischer, R., Lopez-Ortiz, A., Morin, P., and Munro, JI

Abstract

We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. We show (1) there exists a routing algorithm for arbitrary triangulations that has no memory and uses no randomization, (2) no equivalent result is possible for convex subdivisions, (3) there is no competitive online routing algorithm under the Euclidean distance metric in arbitrary triangulations, and (4) there is no competitive online routing algorithm under the link distance metric even when the input graph is restricted to be a Delaunay, greedy, or minimum-weight triangulation.
