Why clinicians involved with adverse events need much better support
Authors: Kable Ashley K. , Spigelman Allan D. 
Published: October 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to draw attention to the problem of second victims involved in adverse events and their need for adequate support.

Design/methodology/approach
The impact on second victims involved in adverse events and implications for organisational support were determined from previous studies and relevant publications about this problem.

Findings
The impact of adverse events on health professionals who are involved in them can be profound. These second victims can suffer extreme emotional distress, anxiety regarding perceptions of their competence and professional isolation, and may endure long-term professional and personal consequences. Some of the more severe outcomes include leaving the profession, symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide. Many studies report a substantial lack of organisational support for second victims. Key strategies have been recommended for organisations to implement to support second victims.

Originality/value
The authors note that recently published studies continue to report that organisational support is inadequate for second victims. Improved mechanisms of support would prevent the loss of second victims from the workforce, and ameliorate the severity and duration of the impact on second victims.
Do cognitive appraisals moderate the link between qualitative job insecurity and psychological-behavioral well-being?
Authors: Charkhabi Morteza 
Published: October 2018

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to detect the association between qualitative job insecurity and well-being related outcomes and to determine the extent to which cognitive appraisals of job insecurity moderate this association. According to appraisal theory, it is anticipated a hindrance appraisal of job insecurity to amplify and a challenge appraisal of job insecurity to buffer this association.

Design/methodology/approach
To test the hypotheses, 250 healthcare employees from different departments of an Iranian large public hospital were recruited. Participants responded to scales on qualitative job insecurity, cognitive appraisals, job satisfaction, emotional exhaustion, absenteeism and presenteeism.

Findings
Results showed that qualitative job insecurity negatively influenced both psychological and behavioral well-being; however, this influence was greater for psychological well-being than for behavioral well-being. Besides, the moderation tests showed that only the hindrance appraisals of job insecurity amplified the link between job insecurity and psychological outcomes.

Research limitations/implications
This study sampled employees from a public hospital and did not include employees from private hospitals. This may limit the generalizability of the findings. Also, due to using a cross-sectional research design we encourage future studies to replicate the same findings using other different research designs.

Practical implications
The findings aid occupational health psychologists to design particular interventions for protecting those aspects of employee’s well-being that are more vulnerable when qualitative job insecurity is chronically perceived.

Originality/value
Together, these findings suggest that the hindrance appraisals of qualitative job insecurity are more likely to moderate the link between job insecurity and well-being outcomes.
Halogen-free ionic liquids as synthetic ester oil antiwear additives
Authors: Wang Zeyun 
Published: October 2018

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the tribological properties of 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate anion-based ionic liquids (ILs) when used as lubricant additives in synthetic ester oil.

Design/methodology/approach
The 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate anion-based ILs containing different cation-imidazolium and organo-ammonium were synthesized and characterized. Their tribological performances as lubricant additives were assessed on ball-on-flat tribological tester. Their compatibility with typical additives (such as viscosity improver, antioxidant, pour point depressant and anti-rusting agent) were evaluated on a four-ball friction and wear tester.

Findings
It was found that the synthesized ILs demonstrated more effective friction reduction and antiwear properties than the base synthetic ester oil. The ILs worked well with the other typical additives, such as viscosity improver, antioxidant, pour point depressant and anti-rusting agent.

Originality/value
The results of the experimental studies demonstrated the potential of 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate anion-based ILs as additives for improving friction reduction and antiwear abilities of synthetic ester oil.
Adaptable legged-magnetic adhesion tracked wheel robotic platform for misaligned mooring chain climbing and inspection
Authors: Dissanayake Mahesh , Sattar Tariq Pervez , Lowe Shehan , Pinson Ivan , Gan Tat-hean 
Published: October 2018

Purpose
Mooring chains used to stabilise offshore floating platforms are often subjected to harsh environmental conditions on a daily basis, i.e. high tidal waves, storms, etc. Therefore, the integrity assessment of chain links is vital, and regular inspection is mandatory for offshore structures. The development of chain climbing robots is still in its infancy due to the complicated climbing structure presented by mooring chains. The purpose of this paper is to establish an automated climbing technique for mooring chain inspection.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper presents a Cartesian legged tracked-wheel crawler robot developed for mooring chain inspection. The proposed robot addresses the misalignment condition of the mooring chains which is commonly evident in in situ conditions.

Findings
The mooring chain link misalignment is investigated mathematically and used as a design parameter for the proposed robot. The robot is validated with laboratory-based climbing experiments.

Practical implications
Chain breaking can lead to vessel drift and serious damage such as riser rupture, production shutdown and hydrocarbon release. Currently, structural health monitoring of chain links is conducted using either remotely operated vehicles which come at a high cost or by manual means which increase the danger to human operators. The robot can be used as a platform to convey equipment, i.e. tools for non-destructive testing/evaluation applications.

Originality/value
This study has upgraded a previously designed magnetic adhesion tracked-wheel mooring chain climbing robot to address the misalignment issues of operational mooring chains. As a result of this study, the idea of an orthogonally placed Cartesian legged-magnetic adhesion tracked wheel robotic platform which can eliminate concerns related to the misaligned mooring chain climbing has been established.
How communication departments contribute to corporate success
Authors: Zerfass Ansgar , Volk Sophia Charlotte 
Published: October 2018

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to clarify and demonstrate the core contributions of communication departments to organizational success beyond traditional ideas of messaging or information distribution. The main aim is to develop a better understanding of the different facets of value that the communication function delivers by introducing a distinction between strategic and operational contributions, following established management models.Design/methodology/approachThe research is based on an extensive literature review at the nexus of communication management and strategic management research and ten qualitative case studies in large, internationally operating German organizations from different industries, combining in-depth interviews and document analyses.FindingsThe newly developed Communications Contributions Framework demonstrates that communications serve the corporation in four strategic and operational dimensions and emphasizes the critical role of communications in reflecting and adjusting organizational strategies, i.e. through identifying opportunities to innovate or securing intangible assets.Practical implicationsThe paper outlines different application scenarios for how the new framework can be used in practice, i.e. as a multi-faceted rationale for explaining the impact of communication departments in the language of top management and reporting communication success in the logic of business.Originality/valueThe framework provides the first theoretically and empirically based “big picture” of communications’ contributions to corporate success, designed to lay ground for further discussions both in academia and in practice.
Where in the world do bacteria experience oxidative stress?
Authors: Imlay James A. 
Published: October 2018

SummaryReactive oxygen species – superoxide, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals – have long been suspected of constraining bacterial growth in important microbial habitats and indeed of shaping microbial communities. Over recent decades, studies of paradigmatic organisms such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae have pinpointed the biomolecules that oxidants can damage and the strategies by which microbes minimize their injuries. What is lacking is a good sense of the circumstances under which oxidative stress actually occurs. In this MiniReview several potential natural sources of oxidative stress are considered: endogenous ROS formation, chemical oxidation of reduced species at oxic–anoxic interfaces, H2O2 production by lactic acid bacteria, the oxidative burst of phagocytes and the redox‐cycling of secreted small molecules. While all of these phenomena can be reproduced and verified in the lab, the actual quantification of stress in natural habitats remains lacking – and, therefore, we have a fundamental hole in our understanding of the role that oxidative stress actually plays in the biosphere.
‘Routine is a blind alley’ (C. G. Jung): on the similarities between artistic‐creative and psychoanalytic work
Authors: Wolf Stefan 
Published: October 2018

AbstractThe transformation processes in artistic‐creative work and those of the analytic process can be considered to be comparable. To illustrate the relatedness of the two, the author describes three self‐states that characterized the artist Alberto Giacometti's creative process. With reference to Jungian concepts, the author subsequently illustrates how these states of mind can be found in the analyst during the analytic encounter. By comparing both processes, he explores the temptations and denials that accompany the analyst's struggle for an analytic attitude.
The Language of Constitutionalism and the Royal Prerogative in the English Parliament of 1593: James Morice's Speech on the Ex Officio Proceedings and his Constitutional Thought
Authors: Giurato Rocco 
Published: October 2018

AbstractIn the parliamentary speech on the ex officio proceedings delivered in 1593 by James Morice, a prominent Elizabethan common lawyer, there appeared an original interpretation of the relationship between the royal prerogative and the law. Morice's speech, aimed at declaring illegal the ex officio oath, resulted from the strengthening of the authority of the monarchy and state in the late 16th century, a distinctive feature of the last decade of Elizabeth I's reign. The oath was imposed in particular by the court of high commission for causes ecclesiastical, whose judges received their powers from the crown by means of letters patent. In order to achieve his objective, Morice introduced two bills in the attempt to curb the abuses of the ecclesiastical judges through legislation, one of the ordinary prerogatives. In parliament, he deployed powerful legal and political arguments to move the queen to protect and guarantee the subjects’ rights by virtue of the royal prerogative. The exercise of the prerogative in the last decade of the Elizabethan reign is a key to understanding the transformation in governmentality that caused Morice's parliamentary action, which anticipates the strategies later enacted by common lawyers – most notably Edward Coke – in reaction to the expanding authority of the English state and monarchy.
A Tragic Tory Leader and His Diaries
Authors: Lexden Alistair 
Published: October 2018

AbstractSir Stafford Northcote, a tory with many liberal instincts, was leader of the Conservative Party in the Commons from 1876 to 1885 (outranking the leader in the Lords after 1881). Subjected to much harsh criticism during this period, his significant achievements over his long political career as a whole have been largely forgotten. His diaries contain a great deal of information about his activities in, and beyond, politics. Most of them exist today only in typescript copies. By a set of curious chances, four of the original diaries came into the possession of a lawyers’ clerk. In 2017, they were added to Northcote's surviving papers in the British Library. All four relate to travel, mainly on important public business outside Europe. The final section of this note provides an indication of the interest and significance of these diaries.

AbstractIntroductionThe receipt of remote clinical care for children via telecommunications (pediatric telemedicine) appears to improve access to and quality of care in U.S. emergency departments (EDs), but the actual prevalence and characteristics of pediatric telemedicine receipt remain unclear. We determined the prevalence and current applications of pediatric telemedicine in U.S. EDs, focusing on EDs that received telemedicine from clinicians at other facilities.MethodsWe surveyed all 5,375 U.S. EDs to characterize emergency care in 2016. We then randomly surveyed 130 (39%) of the 337 EDs who reported receiving pediatric telemedicine. The second survey was administered by phone to ED directors primarily. It confirmed that the ED received pediatric telemedicine services in 2017 and asked about ED staffing and the nature, purpose, and concerns with pediatric telemedicine implementation.ResultsThe first survey (4,507/5,375, 84% response) showed that 337 (8%) EDs reported receiving pediatric telemedicine. Among the randomly sampled EDs completing the second survey (107/130, 82% response), 96 (90%) confirmed 2016 use and 89 (83%) confirmed 2017 use. Reasons for discontinuation included technical and scheduling concerns. Almost all who confirmed their pediatric telemedicine use in 2017 also reported 24/7 availability (98%). The most widely reported use was for patient placement and transfer coordination (80%). Many EDs (39%) reported no challenges with implementing pediatric telemedicine and described its utility. However, the most frequently reported challenges were process concerns (30%), such as concerns about slowing or interrupting providers’ work flow and technological concerns (14%).ConclusionFew EDs receive telemedicine for the delivery of pediatric emergency care nationally. Among EDs that do use telemedicine for pediatric care, many report process concerns. Addressing these barriers through focused education or interventions may support EDs in further developing and optimizing this technological adjunct to pediatric emergency care.

Published: October 2018

BackgroundTo understand patterns of opioid prescribing on discharge in the orthopaedic and neurosurgical wards of a tertiary metropolitan hospital.MethodsA retrospective audit of medical records and discharge summaries for all orthopaedic and neurosurgical patients admitted for at least 2 days on two surgical wards over a 6‐month period between 1 January and 30 June 2017.ResultsA combined total of 355 patients (281 orthopaedic and 74 neurosurgical patients) were included in the audit. Approximately 82% were discharged on opioids. Of patients discharged on opioids, 71.4% of the orthopaedic group and 73.8% of the neurosurgical group were discharged on combinations of two or more opioids (immediate release together with slow release). Around 65% of the sample discharged on opioids was opioid naïve on admission. About 32.5% of the orthopaedic patients and 68.9% of the neurosurgical patients were discharged on a combination of opioid and other pharmacotherapy that could potentiate the central nervous system depressant effect of the opioids. Only 6.9% of orthopaedic patients and 11.5% of the neurosurgical patients had discharge summaries that included any reference to opioid management after discharge.ConclusionOrthopaedic and neurosurgical units had high opioid prescribing rates on discharge from hospital. This highlights the need for clear communication of the intended medication management plan post‐discharge in order to minimize inappropriate and ongoing use of opioids post‐surgery.

Published: October 2018

AbstractIntroductionTo provide an update on the current status of robotic systems for surgery and the companies that produce these systems.MethodsA non‐systematic literature review was performed by using the PubMED/MEDLINE electronic search engines. Existing patents for robotic companies and devices were researched by using the Google search engine.ResultsSince the da Vinci Surgical System's patent expired, we have been able to predict the future of robotic companies based on the various robotic systems being developed. Currently, various attempts are being made to create consoles, robotic arms, cameras, handles, and instruments and to implement specific functions (e.g. haptic feedback, eye tracking). Herein, the benefits and limitations of each technology are identified, and likely future developments are described.ConclusionsThe robotic surgical systems are continually being developed by various companies around the world. New technologies have been increasingly implemented to improve on the capabilities of previously established systems and surgical ergonomics. Future studies may need to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each robotic surgical system.
Countering Youth's Negative Stereotypes of Teens Fosters Constructive Behavior
Authors: Qu Yang , Pomerantz Eva M. , Wu Guohong 
Published: October 2018

Adolescence can be a time of unconstructive behavior for many youth. This research examined if an intervention countering youth's stereotypes of teens as irresponsible fosters their constructive behavior. In two experimental intervention studies (Ns = 124 and 319) with seventh graders, stereotypes of teens as irresponsible were described as inaccurate portrayals; youth then provided their own observations of teens acting responsibly. Youth in this counterstereotyping intervention (vs. the control) held higher intentions for academic engagement and performed better on an academic task (i.e., a word‐search puzzle). Over the 3 days following the intervention, their academic engagement was higher. Youth's risk taking was also reduced. Redirecting youth to see teens as responsible has the potential to provide a foundation for flourishing.

Published: October 2018

Couple therapy has been shown to be a meaningful way to improve couples’ relationships. However, less information is known about couples’ functioning prior to entering treatment in community settings, as well as how their relationship functioning changes from initiating therapy onward. This study examined 87 couples who began community‐based couple therapy during a longitudinal study of couples in the military. The couples were assessed six times over the course of 3 years, including time points before and after starting couple therapy. Using an interrupted‐time series design, we examined trajectories across the start of couple therapy in relationship satisfaction, divorce proneness, and negative communication. The results demonstrated that couples’ relationship satisfaction was declining and both divorce proneness and negative communication were increasing prior to entering couple therapy. After starting couple therapy, couples’ functioning on all three variables leveled off but did not show further change, but previous experience in relationship education moderated these effects. Specifically, those who were assigned to the relationship education program (vs. control) demonstrated greater reductions in divorce proneness and greater increases marital satisfaction after starting therapy; however, they also started more distressed.
STRUCTURAL EMPIRICAL EVALUATION OF JOB SEARCH MONITORING
Authors: van den Berg Gerard J. , van der Klaauw Bas 
Published: October 2018

AbstractTo evaluate search effort monitoring of unemployed workers, it is important to take account of post‐unemployment wages and job‐to‐job mobility. We structurally estimate a model with search channels, using a controlled trial in which monitoring is randomized. The data include registers and survey data on search behavior. We find that the opportunity to move to better‐paid jobs in employment reduces the extent to which monitoring induces substitution toward formal search channels in unemployment. Job mobility compensates for adverse long‐run effects of monitoring on wages. We examine counterfactual policies against moral hazard, like reemployment bonuses and changes of the benefits path.
Measuring and reporting the actuarial obligations of the Canada Pension Plan
Authors: Billig Assia , Ménard Jean‐Claude 
Published: October 2018

AbstractThe processes used to assess the financial sustainability of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and the corresponding reporting are recognized internationally as “best practices”. In the context of the international and multi‐disciplinary debate about the most appropriate methodology for the measuring and reporting of social security assets and obligations, the experience and practices of Canada offer a number of important policy lessons. The article analyses the assets and obligations of the CPP using different actuarial balance sheet methodologies, i.e. open and closed group. It concludes that the balance sheets under the closed‐group with and without future benefit accruals methodologies do not reflect the nature of the partial funding approach of the CPP, whereby future contributions represent a major source of financing for future expenditures. As such, it is inappropriate to reach a conclusion regarding the Plan's financial sustainability considering only the asset shortfalls determined under the closed group with and without future accruals balance sheets. The article asserts that measuring the Plan's assets and obligations using the open‐group approach provides information that properly reflects how changing demographic and economic environments affect the long‐term sustainability of the CPP. In contrast, using the closed group without future accruals approach may provide incomplete or even misleading information. Finally, the article discusses approaches used to report the financial state of the CPP, including both actuarial and financial reporting. It highlights the comprehensive disclosures approach adopted for the purpose of CPP annual reports and the Public Accounts of Canada.
