BACKGROUND

Problems in the usability of health information systems (HISs) are well acknowledged, but research still lacks a validated questionnaire for measuring and monitoring different dimensions of usability of HISs. Such questionnaires are needed not only for research but also for developing usability of HISs from the viewpoint of end-user experiences.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to develop and test the validity of the questionnaire measuring the National Usability-Focused HIS-Scale (NuHISS) among a nationally representative sample of Finnish physicians.

METHODS

We utilized 2 cross-sectional data collected from a random sample of Finnish physicians in 2014 (N=3781; of which 2340 [61.9%] were women) and 2017 (N=4018; of which 2604 [64.8%] were women). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (structural equation modeling [SEM]) were applied to test the structural validity of the NuHISS. As the concurrent validity measure, we used the self-reported overall quality of the electronic health record system (school grade) provided by the participants using marginal structural models.

RESULTS

The exploratory factor analyses with Varimax rotation suggested that the 7-factor solution did offer a good fit to the data in both samples (C2=2136.14 in 2014 and C2=2109.83 in 2017, both P<.001). Moreover, structural equation modelling analyses, using comparative fit index (CFI), Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI), Normed Fit Index (NFI), root mean squared error of approximation (RMSEA), and Standardized Root Mean square Residual (SRMR), showed that the 7-factor solution provided an acceptable fit in both samples (CFI=0.92/0.91, TLI=0.92/0.91, NFI=0.92/0.91, RMSEA=0.048/0.049, and SRMR=0.040/0.039). In addition, concurrent validity of this solution was shown to be acceptable. Ease of use, but also all other dimensions, was especially associated with overall quality reports independent of measured confounders. The 7-factor solution included dimensions of technical quality, information quality, feedback, ease of use, benefits, internal collaboration, and cross-organizational collaboration.

CONCLUSIONS

NuHISS provides a useful tool for measuring usability of HISs among physicians and offers a valid measure for monitoring the long-term development of HISs on a large scale. The relative importance of items needs to be assessed against national electronic health policy goals and complemented with items that have remained outside the NuHISS from the questionnaire when appropriate.
Claims-based measures of continuity of care have non-linear associations with health: data linkage study
Authors: Tran Bich , Falster Michael , Jorm Louisa 
Published: December 2018

BackgroundContinuity of care (CoC) is considered a central element of good primary care and is often measured using medical claims data. Possible values of CoC depend on the number of claims which is related to health status. This study investigated the relationships between CoC and health status and risk of emergency hospitalisation.
MethodsHealth insurance claims for consultations with general practitioners (GPs) in the 24 months following entry to the 45 and Up Study were used to calculate usual provider continuity (UPC) and the Continuity of Care Index (CoC Index). Relationships of CoC with number of claims, self-rated health and emergency hospitalisation were investigated using descriptive statistics and logistic regression models.
ResultsBoth measures of CoC were strongly related to number of claims and to measures of health status, which were in turn highly associated. Multivariable logistic regression models showed a weak positive relationship between CoC and odds of emergency hospitalisation for those with CoC less than 1, while individuals with perfect CoC had significantly lower odds of hospitalisation compared to all other categories of CoC. However, analyses stratified by, or adjusting for, number of claims showed no clear associations between CoC and risk of hospitalisation.
ConclusionsThe pattern of association between CoC categories and emergency hospitalisation was non-linear and was confounded by the effect of number of claims. Future studies should apply caution in using claims-based measures of CoC as a continuous variable or employing an arbitrary cut-point, and should adjust for number of claims.

Published: December 2018

Las elevadas concentraciones sanguíneas de estrógenos resultan tóxicas para la médula ósea, contribuyendo al desarrollo de hipoplasia medular severa. En estados crónicos, esta puede ser irreversible. Los estrógenos influyen en el desarrollo de tumores del músculo liso en útero, vagina y vulva. Los sarcomas primarios representan solamente el 1-3 % de las neoplasias malignas vulvares en perras; el leiomiosarcoma es el más común. En este trabajo se describe un caso de mielotoxicidad inducida por estrógenos de origen ovárico y un leiomiosarcoma vulvar en una perra pit bull de 7 años. El animal presentaba hiporexia, depresión, dificultad para desplazarse, disnea, dolor a la palpación en la región inguinal, disuria, edema vulvar, alopecia simétrica bilateral, agrandamiento de glándulas mamarias y ciclos reproductivos anormales, así como una masa localizada en el labio vulvar izquierdo. Mediante estudios de laboratorio se demostró pancitopenia severa asociada a mielotoxicidad y una concentración de 17β-estradiol sérico de 185,6 pg/ml. Mediante el examen citológico de la médula ósea se determinó hipoplasia medular. Se realizaron escisión quirúrgica de la masa tumoral y ooforosalpingectomía, encontrándose un quiste folicular en el ovario derecho. Se realizaron estudios histopatológicos e inmunohistoquímicos y se formuló un diagnóstico definitivo de mielotoxicidad inducida por estrógenos y leiomiosarcoma vulvar.

Abstract
According to the Small Business Act Report, 2015, Romania is placed by the European Commission as a leader among the Member States in the field of entrepreneurship, with the prospects of increasing the number of SMEs by at least 8.5% annually. Micro enterprises in Romania, according to the White Paper of SMEs in Romania-2016, edition XIV, also face difficulties with the continuous preparation and training of the employees, namely: hiring, training and maintaining the personnel, consulting and the necessary training for the company and employees. For vocational training, SMEs in Romania allocate an average percentage of 1.96% of the turnover, a rather unfavorable situation, which shows that Romanian entrepreneurs invest relatively little in human resources training.
This paper is part of a European project entitled ME2ME – Micro-Enterprise Learning, and aims at identifying the skills and knowledge available in the local business community that could be valued through peer-to-peer learning networks to support the development of the micro-enterprise sector. The outlined conclusions point out that the peer-to-peer learning process occupies the second position among the methods of accessing the new training sources in Romania. The most important peer-to-peer learning approaches into the micro-enterprises’ representatives preferences were: small group meetings, joint peer activities, and training sessions.

Authors: Ionescu Luiza , Toma Maria , Founanou Mathurin 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
At the level of any entity (company), inventory represents an important category of current assets, and implicitly, of total assets. Starting from the importance of this category of assets for the normal development of the production or sales activity, this paper has as priority objectives the following: delimitation of the theoretical aspects regarding the inventory valuation of the sold goods; determining the impact that inventory valuation methods may have on the financial position and financial performance of the company; applied analysis of inventory valuation options. The results obtained from both theoretical and practical research verify the main assumption that the inventory valuation options have a different impact on financial situation and the financial performance of an entity.

Published: December 2018

AbstractHealth Care is a sensitive issue that concerns not only the individual but also society in general. Health economics are a specialization of the economists in the health sector who aim for the proper function of hospital administration. It deals with issues related to the financing and delivery of health services and the role of such services and other personal decisions in contributing to personal health. Many researches refer to the problems that each health unit faces, emphasizing on the resources, programs and health expenditure. Some of these programs, especially the most effective, are mentioned in this research. Their creation was based on the best quality of health services in all OECD countries.With this research, we aim to develop a methodological framework for evaluating the total health expenditure (consists of all expenditures or outlays for medical care, prevention, promotion, rehabilitation, community health activities, health administration and regulation and capital formation with the predominant objective of improving health) in the 23 OECD countries, by creating a panel data regression and analyzing the results, from 2000 to 2014. For this reason, some of the most important variables (macroeconomic and related to the health sector), were used as tools to assess the performance of each country, as far as the resources and the expenditure for the health care are concerned. Every explanatory variable that was used in this sample, but also the combination of a number of these explanatory variables showed a positive correlation with total expenditures as a percentage of GDP in the majority of the equations. Some variables showed a negative correlation with total health expenditures, which doesn’t fit with the economic theory. Financial crisis is the reason for this.

Authors: Le Nguyen Truc , Diep Pham Thi Hong 
Published: December 2018

Among actors participating in market economic institutions, State is an important one that can set out and monitor the implementation of the “rules of the game”. In the different models of market economic institutions, the role of state also manifests itself not only at the scale of the state, but more importantly, at its objectives, tools and ways of participation into economy. Korea is an East Asian country that has achieved phenomenal growth during the second half of the twentieth century. The process of improving the market economy in Korea through different periods of development clearly demonstrates the role of a strong state, while being very flexible in regulating the economy according to market signals. This paper focuses on the role of the state in the market economic institutions of different stages of development in Korea, thus drawing implications for improving the market economic institutions in Vietnam.

Personal Values Required for Ethical Best Practice during Intrapartum Care
Authors: Malesela Jacobeth Mmabyala Louisa 
Published: December 2018

Women bring into the birthing unit values which include preferences, concerns and expectations that are involved in decision-making during intrapartum care. When midwives fail to meet the womenâ€™s values, they experience such care as being inhumane and degrading, thus affecting the childbirth outcomes. The inhumane and degrading care includes a lack of sympathy and empathy, as well as a lack of attention to privacy and confidentiality. Midwivesâ€™ possession of the required personal values and the ability to integrate womenâ€™s values are vital to enhance ethical best practice during intrapartum care. The aim of the study was to explore and to describe the midwivesâ€™ personal values that are required for ethical best practice during intrapartum care. The birthing unit at a public hospital in the Gauteng province of South Africa formed the context of the study. A qualitative research design that was explorative, descriptive and contextual in nature was used. The following personal values emerged: (1)Â respect, trust and dignity; (2)Â justice, equality and fairness; (3)Â freedom of choice and autonomy; (4)Â integrity, honesty and consistency; (5)Â good character and personality; (6)Â self-control and rapport; and (7)Â open-mindedness and flexibility. The midwivesâ€™ personal values form a strong precursor that is crucial for ethical best practice during intrapartum care. The individual midwives, nursing education institutions and health facilities can use the study findings in areas such as reflective midwifery practice, the midwifery curriculum, recruitment and selection processes, and as part of key performance areas and indicators in performance reviews.
