As Crônicas de Índias e os Primeiros Relatos da Conquista do Tawantinsuyu
Authors: Lima Tamara de
Published: December 2017

A história da conquista do Tawantinsuyu – termo quéchua utilizado para referenciar o território dos incas – foi tema de inúmeros trabalhos. Apoiados por fontes quinhentistas, genericamente denominadas de “Crônicas de Índias”, os historiadores ou aqueles que se ocuparam do tema, pelo menos até meados do século XX, preocupavam-se com a tentativa de reconstituição da história da conquista tal e como havia se passado “realmente”. Essa historiografia, devedora do positivismo, também se ocupara da questão da autenticidade do documento, de sua legitimidade, e buscou traçar algumas classificações dessas crônicas agrupando-as segundo critérios distintos: cronológico, pelo assunto a que se dedicam e pela nacionalidade, profissão e etnia do cronista. Essas classificações apresentam alguns problemas, pois existem cronistas e crônicas que não se encaixam em nenhuma delas, o que torna difícil a fixação de uma categoria indiscutível para essas fontes. Os relatos que apresentamos neste artigo compartilham da característica comum de terem sido escritos por homens que vivenciaram os fatos que narram, ou seja, a conquista do Tawantinsuyu, mas obviamente, não optamos por seguir nenhuma classificação. Isso porque estamos cientes de que não se trata de um corpo documental homogêneo, já que, entre outras coisas, esses relatos foram escritos com diferentes intuitos, para leitores diversos e seus escritos refletem tais divergências. Ao final do texto incorporamos um Apêndice Documental que apresenta cronologicamente informações detalhadas sobre as primeiras fontes publicadas sobre o processo de conquista do Império Inca.

O Negro nos Meandros dos Debates Parlamentares da Primeira República (1889-1894)
Authors: Teixeira Talita
Published: December 2017

Com a proclamação da República em 15 de novembro de 1889, iniciou-se um novo período para a história brasileira. Tempo de mudanças políticas, econômicas e sociais. A monarquia fora abandonada, a economia seria pautada na mão de obra assalariada livre e a escravidão transformar-se-ia em coisa do passado. No entanto, ficara para a nascida República uma herança imperial para ser extinta: o preconceito de cor. Missão aparentemente próxima do novo ideal político que exaltava “somos todos iguais!” no hino da Proclamação da República. Assim, nosso objetivo é buscar analisar a imagem de nação almejada após a Proclamação da República, identificando o papel destinado ao negro.

A imigração subsidiada: os contratos para introdução de espanhóis no Pará
Authors: Smith Júnior Francisco Pereira , Garvão Rodrigo Fraga
Published: December 2017

Os anos de 1890 a 1920 se destacaram na história das migrações internacionais no Pará. Houve, neste período, uma eficaz propaganda migratória na Europa fazendo com que o Estado recebesse um significativo número de imigrantes europeus. Esses imigrantes fizeram parte de um exército de estrangeiros que tinha o papel de povoar e trabalhar na Amazônia. Neste cenário, destacaram-se muitos espanhóis que vieram viver o sonho do “eldorado amazônico”, juntos com suas famílias e recomeçaram sua história de vida. Portanto, o objetivo do estudo é traçar um perfil desse imigrante espanhol e analisar o processo de constituição dos núcleos populacionais em que estes espanhóis estavam inseridos.
A música da prosa. Traduzindo os recursos sonoro-semânticos da Utopia, de Thomas Morus (livro II)
Authors: Ribeiro Ana Cláudia Romano
Published: December 2017

Ao traduzir a Utopia do latim ao português do Brasil, percebi um texto em alguns aspectos diferente daqueles publicados em traduções do libellus aureus. Nestas, certas características do modo pelo qual se expressa Thomas Morus se perdem. Uma delas, o caráter poético, já havia sido notado por Erasmo, que em seu Diálogo ciceroniano (1528) dizia ser possível reconhecer “o poeta” na prosa de Morus, algo decorrente, sempre segundo Erasmo, de uma longa prática de escrita de poesia. Pode-se reconhecer esse caráter poético por exemplo, em certa musicalidade, expressa, na Utopia, na forma de “rimas e ritmos” (cf. André Prévost, 1978), ou em figuras como a litotes (estudada por Elizabeth McCutcheon, 1971), que constituem, junto a outros elementos, um texto denso, bem distante da neglectam simplicitatem, pista falsa com a qual Morus caracteriza sua Utopia, na célebre carta a Pieter Gillis. Ainda no século XVI, Juan Vives recomendava a leitura da Utopia por duas razões: tanto pelo uso da língua quanto pelo assunto. E, no entanto, ao longo dos séculos, a Utopia parece ter sido objeto de seus críticos sempre mais pelo assunto do que pelas especificidades de seu estilo, dissociação que, ressalte-se, é artificial, se pensarmos que forma e sentido são indissociáveis. Tal predileção pelo sentido em detrimento da forma se percebe pela escassez de bibliografia que trata do estilo da prosa moreana e pela pouca atenção que suas particularidades têm recebido por parte dos tradutores, que, em geral, não se preocupam em traduzir as figuras de som, reforçando a separação letra/espírito. Este artigo apresenta algumas das figuras de som do livro II da Utopia, cotejando o texto latino com algumas traduções para o português, italiano, francês e inglês, colocando em relevo o uso poético que Morus faz do latim.

Nas entrelinhas da hierarquia e disciplina: os alicerces da profissão naval
Authors: Halpern Elizabeth Espindola
Published: December 2017

O exame dos conceitos de hierarquia e disciplina foi realizado por meio de uma análise sócio-histórica de modo a compreender as circunstâncias de sua produção e seus efeitos. Esses preceitos foram produzidos a partir de uma lógica que começou a prevalecer em favor da criação de um militar-padrão para compor os exércitos permanentes, oriundos da racionalidade científica, cujo paradigma mecânico tornou-se o padrão de inteligibilidade para a compreensão do mundo. A profissionalização do militar, em substituição ao recrutamento à força, foi impregnada por esta racionalidade, ajudando a construir as fronteiras entre os militares obedientes e os desviantes, reforçando a existência de processos de exclusão e estigmatização. Este artigo apresenta parte dos resultados da pesquisa que resultou na Tese de Doutorado do curso do Programa de Pós-Graduação do Instituto de Psiquiatria da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro apresentando as narrativas dos militares que são pacientes alcoolistas de um ambulatório da Marinha do Brasil.
Nas Trilhas do Saber e Fazer: Intelectualidade e Política Institucional no Piauí
Authors: Fontineles Filho Pedro Pio , Fontineles Cláudia Cristina da Silva
Published: December 2017

O presente estudo tem o objeto principal de discutir a atuação políticoinstitucional de intelectuais, apontando para os aspectos das relações de poder no que se refere às políticas educacionais nacionais e suas ressonâncias na esfera local do estado do Piauí, sobretudo os aspectos ligados ao ensino da chamada “Literatura Piauiense”. O recorte temporal, no sentido amplo de periodização, abarca posicionamentos que vão desde a década de 1930, passando pela atuação da Faculdade de Filosofia, a implantação da Universidade Federal do Piauí, até princípios do século XXI, fazendo menção ao ensino de “Literatura Piauiense”. Para tanto, metodologicamente, o estudo se deu pela leitura analítico-interpretativa dos relatos escritos e orais de literatos e intelectuais que, de forma direta ou indireta, atuaram na estruturação de espaços de ensino no Piauí. Nesse sentido, o estudo se ancora, também, nas esferas da construção de memórias. Para tanto, como arcabouço teórico-metodológico, foram utilizadas as discussões feitas sobre fontes orais por Marieta Ferreira (2012; 1996) e Verena Alberti (2010;2007). Recorreu-se, também, às proposições de Bourdieu (2010), Compagnon (2009), Sirinelli (2003) e Chartier (2002; 1990), para compreender as interligações e noções de “campo” e suas interpenetrações com a política e o poder.
Terroir and cultural identity
Authors: Hammer Brent A.
Published: December 2017

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between terroir and cultural identity to illustrate that the concept is being employed as a means to reconnect people to the land or an ancestral heritage. The rapid pace of globalization has created a disconnect between identity and the land for many people. If it is true that 99% of human history has been spent as hunter-gathers, it is fair to say that we have a strong connection to the land as a sense of placein direct relation to food procurement. We know we can´t go back to being hunter-gathers, but it doesn´t mean we can´t seek out or desire a connection to the land or an ancestral heritage. This connection can be represented by the concept of terroir. To synthesize the various defi nitions of terroir, it is important to explore the historical origins of the term. A philosophical view establishes that the concept of terroir exists as a separate experience to be refl ected upon independentfrom the sensory experience produced by eating or drinking a food product. A selection of essays and articles are presented to illustrate that the human or cultural component is the most important factor in considering the role of terroir in shaping or creating identity at ethnic, national, regional, and individual levels. Whether one simply believes the concept is being used as a marketing gimmick or that it resonates with our identities, terroir does exist in relating place, timeand people to the production, consumption, and epistemolog y of our modern foodways.
The existential imperative in narrating experience
Authors: Luig Thea
Published: December 2017

The idea that the act of narrating one’s experience, in particular reorganizing disruptive experiences into a coherent story, is conducive to well-being has become popular in the social sciences and in therapeutic practice. Ways of remembering and narrating draw on templates of the larger societal, historical, and cultural context and thus situate the memory of one’s particular experience within a collectively shared world. However, other voices argue that the driving force of storytelling is less the need for coherence or continuity, but rather the reconstruction of a sense of agency in intersubjective relationships. This paper will explore the question of what is at stake, what is existentially imperative, in the human practice of narrating experience. Using a phenomenological framework that pays attention to the intersubjective space of perception and experience, I will apply narrative approaches drawing on medical anthropolog y, linguistics, and psychology to my conversations with Mary, a long-time caregiver for chronically ill family members.
The "Winter of Native Discontent": A critical discourse analysis of Canadian opinion journalism on the Idle No More Movement
Authors: Campbell Tiffany
Published: December 2017

Aboriginal activism has become increasingly subject to media publicity, reflecting a popular view of Aboriginals not only as a social problem but as creating problems that threaten the social fabric. This paper is based on the findings of a critical discourse analysis of a collection of opinion pieces published in The Globe and Mail and the National Post. The contemporary construction of the “Indian problem” was investigated in the context of the Idle No More movement, viewing these texts as part of larger processes of elaboration, articulation, and application of Western ideas on Aboriginal social policy. One of the fundamental conflicts that can be identified in settler discourse is in regard to history and change and a particular concern with how much of the past should be carried into the future. The discontinuous view of history emphasizes the distance of history, making the past seem foreign to the modern, civilized eye. Injustices are presented as characteristics of history, and the violence of colonial times can be disconnected from the present.
Re-approaching palaeodiet in the Andes: use and application of sulphur isotope analysis in reconstructing Peruvian palaeodiet
Authors: Bishop Katherine G.
Published: December 2017

This research critically examines palaeodietary analyses in ancient Peru. Research is often approached using ceramics, flora, and faunal remains to examine human diet and behaviour prior to written records however these remains may not be indicative of items used exclusively for subsistence. More directed approaches employ stable isotope analyses of human remains as these data can provide direct indication of foods consumed during life. Peruvian isotope studies focus on 13C-enrichment patterns, and follow the premise that maize (corn) was the main source of 13C-enrichment recorded in bone collagen. Recent studies in Peru have identified other dietary sources that cause similar enrichment patterns, including kiwicha (pseudocereal), marine protein (e.g. shellfish, fish, and seals), and mococho (seaweed). As a result, additional methodologies must be employed to more sufficiently identify sources of subsistence in ancient Peru. I propose that stable sulphur isotope methodology may be used to overcome the issues presented. By critically reviewing previous palaeodietary analyses of Peru I examine current limitations and overview the application potential of carbon and nitrogen isotope studies complemented with sulphur isotope analysis of human and faunal remains within a Peruvian context. Ultimately I advocate for a more comprehensive approach to Peruvian palaeodiet.

Analisis Portofolio Untuk Menentukan Expected Return Optimal dan Risiko Minimal pada Saham Perusahaan Telekomunikasi yang Terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia
Authors: Paramitasari Ratih , Mulyono Mulyono
Published: December 2017

Investasi merupakan penanaman sejumlah dana dalam bentuk uang maupun barang yang diharapkan akan memberikan hasil di kemudian hari. Investor tidak mengetahui dengan pasti hasil yang akan diperoleh dari investasi yang mereka lakukan. Dalam keadaan semacam itu dapat dikatakan bahwa investor tersebut menghadapi risiko dalam investasi yang dilakukan. Langkah pendekatan yang dapat dilakukan oleh para investor dalam menghadapi risiko investasi adalah melakukan penghitungan dalam pemilihan dan penentuan portofolio serta pola perilaku investor di bursa dalam transaksi jual beli saham. Hakikat pembentukan portofolio adalah mengalokasikan dana pada berbagai alternatif investasi atau melakukan diversifikasi pada beberapa aktiva finansial, sehingga risiko investasi secara keseluruhan akan dapat diminimalkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan bukti empiris untuk mendapatkan alternatif investasi saham yang menghasilkan expected return saham yang optimal dan menurunkan risiko investasi yang minimal. Penelitian ini mengidentifikasi kombinasi portofolio optimal yang dapat dibentuk dari saham perusahaan kategori telekomunikasi. Metode pendekatan dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan tingkat keuntungan yang diharapkan (expected return) dan risiko yang dihasilkan dari kombinasi portofolio saham. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Indonesia dengan populasi adalah saham perusahaan yang masuk dalam kategori telekomunikasi menurut IDX statistic periode tahun 2009 sampai dengan tahun 2011 dengan metode purposive sampling. Terdapat lima perusahaan yang dapat dibentuk menjadi portofolio saham dengan kombinasi antara 2 saham sampai dengan 5 saham. Dari semua kombinasi saham yang dapat dibentuk kemudian diperingkat berdasarkan nilai Coefficient of Variance (CV). Portofolio yang paling optimal adalah portofolio yang memiliki nilai CV terkecil. Dari hasil perhitungan dengan menggunakan Single Index Model dan Equally Weighted menunjukkan menunjukkan bahwa kombinasi 2 saham memiliki nilai CV terkecil yaitu kombinasi untuk saham PT. Bakrie Telecom, Tbk dan saham PT. XL Axiata, Tbk.

An Automated Displaced Proportional Circle Map Using Delaunay Triangulation and an Algorithm for Node Overlap Removal
Authors: Lamb David
Published: December 2017

Proportional circle maps are a popular method for visualizing quantitative data on a map. Circles are scaled proportionally based on the data provided; larger circles represent larger quantities. The circles require two values, a location and a numeric quantity. For data that have a wide range of values, the resulting map will produce clutter and overlap in which large symbols obscure the information contained in smaller circles. Some previous solutions to this problem are modifying and improving the contrast between symbols, or using stacking algorithms so all symbols are visible. This article proposes the displaced proportional symbol map, which displaces the symbol's location based on the amount of overlap between neighbouring circles. At the same time, it preserves the location of non-overlapping symbols, which distinguishes it from the circular cartogram. The displacement is automated through the proximity stress model algorithm for node overlap removal. This algorithm was originally designed for graph layouts with overlapping nodes, but was modified here for circular symbols and map layout. The result is a map with improved clarity and the ability to add labelling to a cluttered proportional circle map.

The Impact of the Female Immune Challenge on Parental Feeding Rate, Mass and Body Condition Index of Offspring
Authors: Grzędzicka Emilia
Published: December 2017

Reproduction is a resource-demanding period, when trade-offs between investment in immunity versus other functions of an adult organism may exist. This research investigates the potential trade-off between a challenged immune system of a female parent and parental provisioning in free-living Great Tits Parus major and Eurasian Blue Tits Cyanistes caeruleus. In both species, half of females were challenged with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) as an antigen, while the others were injected with phosphate buffer saline (PBS) as a control. Six days later – at the day assumed to be the peak of an immune response in birds treated with SRBC, when nestlings were nine days old – parental feeding rates were recorded. Two days later (and eleven days after hatching), nestling mass and body condition index (BCI) were quantified. SRBC challenge of the female increased feeding rates of Great Tit males and females, but did not change parental provisioning in Eurasian Blue Tits. This may be explained by the different reproductive strategies in these two bird species. Parental provisioning influenced the mass and BCI of offspring. In both species, offspring mass was lower and BCI was higher in the SRBC group than those in the control group. This means that high providers, such as Great Tits with increased feeding rates, do not always raise chicks with high fledgling mass. Parental provisioning is one of the key factors linking reproduction and the immune system.
Costs Analysis of Circulation Pumps for Heating of Residential Building
Authors: Takács Ján , Straková Zuzana , Rácz Lukáš
Published: December 2017

Circulation pumps are mechanical devices, which are used to create the overpressure required for the transportation of a heat-transfer medium in heating technology as well as in other related technologies. In a circulation pump the mechanical energy generated by the drive machine – an electric motor - is transformed to hydraulic energy, which consists of kinetic and static energy. In the pipeline of a heating system circulation pumps represent a source of hydraulic energy (positive differential pressure), which is consumed to transport the heat-transfer medium. During the flow, the heat-transfer medium puts up resistance to the so-called passive resistors, which consist of pressure losses from friction in the pipes and pressure losses due to local resistance.In this article the authors describe the research, which is based on a case study. They analyze the effect of a circulation pumps on the investments and operating costs in a residential building. Different types of circulation pumps, ranging from the most unfavorable to the optimal, were selected.

Increasingly public sector practitioners are turning to design to help them do more with less. This often takes the form of designing tools or resources that are used by public sector workers in their everyday practice. This paper critically examines the practice of tool design with the aspiration to improve creative engagement (that is, novel interactions that result in the creation of new knowledge or understanding in the public sector). We assert that designers should not be attempting to define what is a 'right' or 'wrong' way to use an engagement tool, but instead seek to enable new interpretations and adaptations of tools so the creativity of practitioners is supported and amplified. We present a proposal for a framework that supports people in organising the multitude of creative engagement tools in a manner that is meaningful to them rather than imposing taxonomies form the outside, enabling them to fix their own meanings, significance and use of the tools they use. To explore this we present 2 use cases, one by IRISS (a leader in innovation in the social services in Scotland) and a second by Leapfrog (a research project led by Lancaster University looking to transform public sector engagement by design).We believe this change in the terms of reference when thinking about the creation and use of tools has profound implications for designers working in the social services and wider pubic services sector.

It has long been accepted that mitochondrial function and morphology is affected in Parkinson’s disease, and that mitochondrial function can be directly related to its morphology. So far, mitochondrial morphological alterations studies, in the context of this neurodegenerative disease, have been performed through microscopic methodologies. The goal of the present work is to address if the modifications in the mitochondrial-shaping proteins occurring in this disorder have implications in other cellular pathways, which might constitute important pathways for the disease progression. To do so, we conducted a novel approach through a thorough exploration of the available proteomics-based studies in the context of Parkinson’s disease. The analysis provided insight into the altered biological pathways affected by changes in the expression of mitochondrial-shaping proteins via different bioinformatic tools. Unexpectedly, we observed that the mitochondrial-shaping proteins altered in the context of Parkinson’s disease are, in the vast majority, related to the organization of the mitochondrial cristae. Conversely, in the studies that have resorted to microscopy-based techniques, the most widely reported alteration in the context of this disorder is mitochondria fragmentation. Cristae membrane organization is pivotal for mitochondrial ATP production, and changes in their morphology have a direct impact on the organization and function of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes. To understand which biological processes are affected by the alteration of these proteins we analyzed the binding partners of the mitochondrial-shaping proteins that were found altered in Parkinson’s disease. We showed that the binding partners fall into seven different cellular components, which include mitochondria, proteasome, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER), amongst others. It is noteworthy that, by evaluating the biological process in which these modified proteins are involved, we showed that they are related to the production and metabolism of ATP, immune response, cytoskeleton alteration, and oxidative stress, amongst others. In summary, with our bioinformatics approach using the data on the modified proteins in Parkinson’s disease patients, we were able to relate the alteration of mitochondrial-shaping proteins to modifications of crucial cellular pathways affected in this disease.

We present the results of the influence of two groups of collisional processes (atom–atom and ion–atom) on the optical and kinetic properties of weakly ionized stellar atmospheres layers. The first type includes radiative processes of the photodissociation/association and radiative charge exchange, the second one the chemi-ionisation/recombination processes with participation of only hydrogen and helium atoms and ions. The quantitative estimation of the rate coefficients of the mentioned processes were made. The effect of the radiative processes is estimated by comparing their intensities with those of the known concurrent processes in application to the solar photosphere and to the photospheres of DB white dwarfs. The investigated chemi-ionisation/recombination processes are considered from the viewpoint of their influence on the populations of the excited states of the hydrogen atom (the Sun and an M-type red dwarf) and helium atom (DB white dwarfs). The effect of these processes on the populations of the excited states of the hydrogen atom has been studied using the general stellar atmosphere code, which generates the model. The presented results demonstrate the undoubted influence of the considered radiative and chemi- ionisation/recombination processes on the optical properties and on the kinetics of the weakly ionized layers in stellar atmospheres.
Non-Equilibrium Relations for Bounded Rational Decision-Making in Changing Environments

Living organisms from single cells to humans need to adapt continuously to respond to changes in their environment. The process of behavioural adaptation can be thought of as improving decision-making performance according to some utility function. Here, we consider an abstract model of organisms as decision-makers with limited information-processing resources that trade off between maximization of utility and computational costs measured by a relative entropy, in a similar fashion to thermodynamic systems undergoing isothermal transformations. Such systems minimize the free energy to reach equilibrium states that balance internal energy and entropic cost. When there is a fast change in the environment, these systems evolve in a non-equilibrium fashion because they are unable to follow the path of equilibrium distributions. Here, we apply concepts from non-equilibrium thermodynamics to characterize decision-makers that adapt to changing environments under the assumption that the temporal evolution of the utility function is externally driven and does not depend on the decision-maker’s action. This allows one to quantify performance loss due to imperfect adaptation in a general manner and, additionally, to find relations for decision-making similar to Crooks’ fluctuation theorem and Jarzynski’s equality. We provide simulations of several exemplary decision and inference problems in the discrete and continuous domains to illustrate the new relations.
The Energy Saving Potential of Occupancy-Based Lighting Control Strategies in Open-Plan Offices: The Influence of Occupancy Patterns

Published: December 2017

Occupancy-based lighting control strategies have been proven to be effective in diminishing offices’ energy consumption. These strategies have typically worked by controlling lighting at the room level but, recently, lighting systems have begun to be equipped with sensors on a more fine-grained level, enabling lighting control at the desk level. For some office cases, however, the savings gained using this strategy may not outweigh the costs and design efforts compared to room control. This is because, in some offices, individual occupancy patterns are similar, hence the difference in savings between desk and room control would be minimal. This study examined the influence of occupancy pattern variance within an office space on the relative energy savings of control strategies with different control zone sizes. We applied stochastic modeling to estimate the occupancy patterns, as this method can account for uncertainty. To validate our model, simulation results were compared to earlier studies and real measurements, which demonstrated that our simulations provided realistic occupancy patterns. Next, office cases varying in both job-function type distribution and office policy were investigated on energy savings potential to determine the influence of occupancy pattern variance. The relative energy savings potential of the different control strategies differed minimally for the test cases, suggesting that variations in individual occupancy patterns negligibly influence energy savings. In all cases, lighting control at the desk level showed a significantly higher energy savings potential than strategies with lower control zone granularity, suggesting that it is useful to implement occupancy-based lighting at the desk level in all office cases. This strategy should, thus, receive more attention from both researchers and lighting designers.

Almost 98% of methane hydrate is stored in the seawater environment, the study of microscopic mechanism for methane hydrate dissociation on the sea floor is of great significance to the development of hydrate production, involving a three-phase coexistence system of seawater (3.5% NaCl) + hydrate + methane gas. The molecular dynamics method is used to simulate the hydrate dissociation process. The dissociation of hydrate system depends on diffusion of methane molecules from partially open cages and a layer by layer breakdown of the closed cages. The presence of liquid or gas phases adjacent to the hydrate has an effect on the rate of hydrate dissociation. At the beginning of dissociation process, hydrate layers that are in contact with liquid phase dissociated faster than layers adjacent to the gas phase. As the dissociation continues, the thickness of water film near the hydrate-liquid interface became larger than the hydrate-gas interface giving more resistance to the hydrate dissociation. Dissociation rate of hydrate layers adjacent to gas phase gradually exceeds the dissociation rate of layers adjacent to the liquid phase. The difficulty of methane diffusion in the hydrate-liquid side also brings about change in dissociation rate.
Care Model Design for E-Health: Integration of Point-of-Care Testing at Dutch General Practices

Published: December 2017

Point-of-care testing (POCT)—laboratory tests performed with new mobile devices and online technologies outside of the central laboratory—is rapidly outpacing the traditional laboratory test market, growing at a rate of 12 to 15% each year. POCT impacts the diagnostic process of care providers by yielding high efficiency benefits in terms of turnaround time and related quality improvements in the reduction of errors. However, the implementation of this disruptive eHealth technology requires the integration and transformation of diagnostic services across the boundaries of healthcare organizations. Research has revealed both advantages and barriers of POCT implementations, yet to date, there is no business model for the integration of POCT within general practice. The aim of this article is to contribute with a design for a care model that enables the integration of POCT in primary healthcare. In this research, we used a design modelling toolkit for data collection at five general practices. Through an iterative design process, we modelled the actors and value transactions, and designed an optimized care model for the dynamic integration of POCTs into the GP’s network of care delivery. The care model design will have a direct bearing on improving the integration of POCT through the connectivity and norm guidelines between the general practice, the POC technology, and the diagnostic centre.
