Authors: Barajas Ruiz Miriam Liliana , González García Luis Miguel 
Published: July 2016

El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar los procesos administrativos en las Universidades Tecnológicas, teniendo la siguiente pregunta de investigación: ¿Cómo conciben los directivos y alumnos los procesos administrativos y de qué manera éstos influyen en el desarrollo del aprendizaje en un modelo basado en competencias?, esta pregunta da como resultado algunos objetivos para esta investigación, que consiste en sondear tanto entre los directivos como estudiantes si reconocen algún proceso administrativo que apoye el desarrollo académico de los alumnos, así como identificar algunos de estos procesos. La investigación se realizó en dos fases, en la primera se realizó un estudio preliminar con un enfoque cualitativo, en esta fase se investigó de manera simultánea a las Universidades Tecnológicas de San Juan del Río, Aguascalientes y Tepeji, Hidalgo así como la UT de Puebla, buscando la identificación de los principales procesos administrativos, al mismo tiempo se realizó un estudio paralelo en la Universidad Tecnológica de Querétaro, que como factor común cuentan con programas de estudios de nivel superior. Se utilizaron como instrumentos de recolección las entrevistas a profundidad a los directivos de las universidades citadas que trabajan bajo el modelo por competencias para sondear a través de ellos la aceptación del mismo y la relación con los procesos administrativos instrumentados. En la segunda fase se trabajó en la Universidad Tecnológica de Querétaro, específicamente las carreras de Ingeniería utilizando como diseño de investigación un Focus Group, aplicado a estudiantes de ésta Universidad, teniendo como principales hallazgos que los directivos no tienen una idea clara de los procesos administrativos y su relación con el esquema educativo basado en competencias. Basado en estos hallazgos algunos procesos administrativos reconocidos tanto por los directivos como por los estudiantes y son los que se muestran en este estudio.

A technológia szerepe a gazdasági növekedésben, ágazati megközelítésben
Authors: Máté Domicián 
Published: July 2016

Ebben a rövid munkatanulmányban elsősorban a gazdasági növekedésben bekövetkezett változásokra koncentrálok. A kutatások1 során egyrészt arra a kérdésre keresem a választ, hogy ezek a változások – a vizsgált, 1976 és 2007 közötti időszakban – az úgynevezett teljes tényező-termelékenység (TFP) és a fizikai, valamint humán tőkeállomány változása miként járultak hozzá a kibocsátás növekedési üteméhez. A számításokat – a növekedés számvitel (growth accounting) alapján – néhány OECD tagországra vonatkozóan, illetve a technológia intenzitása szerint megkülönböztetett gépgyártási szektorokban végzem el. E mellett a panel regressziós módszertan segítségével azt vizsgálom, hogy a beruházási ráta és a foglalkoztatás alakulása hogyan befolyásolja ezekben az ágazatokban az egy munkavállalóra jutó kibocsátást (termelékenységet).

A tacit tudás jelentősége a globalizált vállalati kultúrában
Authors: Sápiné Duduk Ildikó 
Published: July 2016

A tanulmány a globalizáció egyik elemét, a globális kultúra kérdéseit vizsgálja vállalati szempontból. Rámutat a magyarországi leányvállalatok és anyacégeik kulturális különbségeiből adódó eltérő tacit tudás átadásának fontosságára és lehetőségeire, összekapcsolva a vállalati versenyképesség, a vállalati kultúra és a hallgatólagos tudás fogalmát és kérdéseit. Bemutatja, hogy a szervezetek miként hoznak létre új tudást és hogyan tudják azt átadni. Következtetésként megfogalmazza, hogy amennyiben a tudásmenedzsmentre kellő hangsúlyt fektetnek, a munkavállaló távozásával a tudás a szervezeten belül marad, így a vállalat nem veszít versenyképességéből.

Siker és motiváció a magyar vállalkozó-kutatók körében
Authors: Novotny Ádám 
Published: July 2016

A tanulmány 80 magyar egyetemi vállalkozó (spin-off cég) empirikus vizsgálatának eredményeit mutatja be. Célja a vállalkozásindítás motivációinak és a vállalkozói siker kapcsolatának az elemzése. A vizsgáltmotivációk a jólét iránti igény, a teljesítményvágy, a függetlenségvágy, valamint a vállalkozásindítás kutatási tevékenységgel összefüggő haszna. A cikk a vállalkozói sikert objektív és szubjektív oldalról egyaránt méri. Az objektív siker alkalmazott mérőszámai a bevétel és növekedése, az alkalmazottak száma, valamint a vállalkozás kora. A szubjektív siker a vállalkozó-kutatók önértékelésére utal. Az eredmények szerint a vállalkozásindítás legerősebb motivációja az anyagi kényszer, az egyetemi fizetéssel való elégedetlenség. A vizsgált motivációk a jövedelemkiegészítés kényszere kivételével mind szignifikáns kapcsolatban vannak a szubjektív sikerérzettel, amely az objektív siker kapcsán már nem mondható el. A kutatási tevékenység gyakorlati irányba való kiterjesztése fontos vállalkozói motiváció az egyetemi szférában, hiszen nemcsak a szubjektív sikerérzettel, hanem a cég bevételével és a bevétel növekedésével is szignifikánsan összefügg.

Global Value Chains and Upgrading – Experiences of Hungarian Firms in the Machinery Industry
Authors: Éltető Andrea , Magasházi Anikó , Szalavetz Andrea 
Published: July 2016

Global production networks and global value chains have become widespread today. In these cases firms locate the various stages of their value adding activities across different countries. The activities of global value chains form a new phase of globalization characterized by fragmented production, transfer of technology, and decreasing transport costs (Kaplinsky 2013). Developing countries are involved in these production networks, perceiving this as an important (if not the only) way to develop. The Central European countries have taken an active part in the chains of multinational firms since the nineties. The benefit derived from this participation varies across sectors and firms. In this article we analyze the experiences of Hungarian companies in the machinery industry. The structure of the article is the following. After a description of the basic research question and methodology, a literature review is provided. In the following section we introduce the companies surveyed and review their product-, process- and functional upgrading experiences. Finally, we discuss our findings and suggest some managerial and policy implications.

Severe agitation following deep brain stimulation for parkinsonism
Authors: Rose Nicholas G.W. , Mostrenko Michael , McMaster Jacqueline , Honey Christopher R. 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACT:
The use of deep brain stimulation has become increasingly common for the treatment of movement disorders, including Parkinson disease. Although deep brain stimulation is generally very successful in alleviating the extrapyramidal symptoms of Parkinson disease, side effects can occur. This case report describes a patient presenting to the emergency department in a state of extreme aggression 3 days after a change in the parameters of his bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulator. We review the complications of deep brain stimulation relevant to the emergency physician and provide some practical information on stimulator adjustment in an emergency.
Use of personal protective equipment in Canadian pediatric emergency departments

Published: July 2016

ABSTRACT

Objective:
Numerous barriers to maintaining infection control practices through the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) exist in the emergency department (ED). This study examined the knowledge, self-reported behaviours, and barriers to compliance with infection control practices and the use of PPE in Canadian pediatric EDs.

Methods:
A self-administered survey instrument consisting of 21 questions was developed and piloted for this study. The survey was mailed to all individuals listed in the Pediatric Emergency Research Canada database of physicians practicing pediatric emergency medicine in Canada.

Results:
A total of 186 physicians were surveyed, and 123 (66%) participated. Twenty-two percent of participants reported that they had never received PPE training and 32% had not been trained in the previous 2 years. Fifty-three percent reported being very or somewhat comfortable with their knowledge of transmission-based isolation practices. Participants were correct on a mean of 4.9 of 11 knowledge-based questions (SD 1.7). For scenarios assessing self-reported use of PPE, participants selected answers that reflected PPE use in accordance with national infection control standards in a mean of 1.0 of 6 scenarios (SD 1.0). Participants reported that they would be more likely to use PPE if patients were clearly identified prior to physician assessment, equipment was accessible, and PPE use was made a priority in their ED.

Conclusions:
Knowledge and self-reported adherence to recommended infection control practices among Canadian pediatric emergency physicians is suboptimal. Early identification of patients requiring PPE, convenient access to PPE, and improved education regarding isolation and PPE practices may improve adherence.
Emergency medicine training in Canada: a survey of medical students' knowledge, attitudes, and preferences
Authors: Hillier Morgan , McLeod Shelley , Mendelsohn Danny , Moffat Bradley , Smallfield Audra , Arab Akram , Brown Ashley , Sedran Robert 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTObjectives:The objective of this study was to assess medical students' knowledge of and attitudes toward the two Canadian emergency medicine (EM) residency programs (Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada [FRCPC] and Certificant of the College of Family Physicians-Emergency Medicine [CCFP-EM]). Additionally, medical students interested in EM were asked to select factors affecting their preferred choice of residency training program and their intended future practice.Methods:Medical students enrolled at The University of Western Ontario for the 2008–2009 academic year were invited to complete an online 47-item questionnaire pertaining to their knowledge, opinions, and attitudes toward EM residency training.Results:Of the 563 students invited to participate, 406 (72.1%) completed the survey. Of the respondents, 178 (43.8%) expressed an interest in applying to an EM residency training program, with 85 (47.8%) most interested in applying to the CCFP-EM program.The majority of respondents (54.1%) interested in EM believed that there should be two streams to EM certification, whereas 18.0% disagreed. Family life and control over work schedule appeared to be common priorities seen as benefits of any career in EM. Other high-ranking factors influencing career choice differed between the groups interested in CCFP-EM and FRCPC. The majority of students interested in the CCFP-EM residency program (78%) reported that they intend to blend their EM with their family medicine practice. Only 2% of students planned to practice only EM with no family medicine.Conclusions:This is the first survey of Canadian medical students to describe disparities in factors influencing choice of EM residency stream, perceptions of postgraduate work life, and anticipated practice environment.
The daunting task of “clearing” the cervical spine
Authors: Grunau Brian E. , Dibski Daniel , Hall Jeremy 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTThe evaluation of the cervical spine in the emergency department is a common and often challenging task. We report the case of a 70-year-old female who presented intoxicated with evidence of a recent fall. A 64-slice computed tomographic (CT) scan with sagittal and coronal reconstructions revealed no acute injury. The patient was reexamined when alert and had persistent neck pain. Flexionextension static views revealed severe subluxation of C5 on C6 with jumped facets, and subsequent magnetic resonance imaging confirmed significant ligamentous injury. The evidence available suggests that although CT with reconstruction is highly sensitive for clinically significant cervical injury, the possibility of severe injury remains.
Bedside emergency department ultrasonography availability and use for blunt abdominal trauma in Canadian pediatric centres
Authors: Cardamore Robin , Nemeth Joe , Meyers Christine 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTObjectives:To quantify the current availability and use of bedside emergency department ultrasonography (EDUS) for blunt trauma at Canadian pediatric centres and to identify any perceived barriers to the use of bedside EDUS in such centres.Methods:An electronic survey was sent to 162 pediatric emergency physicians and 12 site directors from the 12 pediatric emergency departments across Canada.Results:Ninety-two percent (11 of 12) of centres completed the survey. The individual physician response rate was 65% (106 of 162), with 100% of site directors responding. Ultrasound machines were available in 45% (5 of 11) of centres. Forty-two percent (32 of 77) of emergency physicians working in equipped pediatric centres used bedside EDUS to evaluate blunt abdominal trauma (BAT). In the subgroup of staff who also worked at adults sites, the frequency of ultrasonography use for the evaluation of pediatric BAT was 75%. In the 55% (6 of 11) of centres without ultrasonography, 88% of staff intend to incorporate its use in the future and 81% indicated that they believed the incorporation of ultrasonography would have a positive impact on patient care. The main perceived barriers to the use of ultrasonography in the evaluation of BAT were a lack of training (41%) and a lack of equipment (26%).Conclusion:Bedside EDUS is currently used in almost half of pediatric trauma centres, a frequency that is significantly lower than adult centres. Physicians in pediatric centres who use ultrasonography report that it has a high utility, and a great majority of physicians at pediatric centres without EDUS plan to incorporate it in the future. The main reported barriers to its use are a lack of training and a lack of equipment availability.
Emergency physician workload modeling
Authors: Dubinsky Isser 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTBackground:A variety of models are used by hospitals, provincial governments, and departments of emergency medicine to “predict” the number of physician hours of coverage necessary to staff emergency departments. These models have arisen to meet specific requirements—some for the purpose of determining hourly rates of compensation, others to determine the amount of funding that will be provided to “purchase” physician coverage, and others to determine the number of hours of coverage necessary to maintain patient waits within “acceptable” limits. All such models have their strengths and weaknesses and have been criticized as not reflecting the “real” needs of any given department.Objective:In the article that follows, a review of existing models is presented, annotating their strengths and weaknesses to derive the characteristics of an “ideal” workload model.Conclusion:None of the models currently used to measure emergency department workload can be relied on to accurately predict the number of staffed hours necessary. Models that may achieve this objective are suggested.

Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTObjectives:Endotracheal intubation (ETI) is considered the gold standard for protecting the airway. Alternative devices for airway protection have been developed that can be used by untrained personnel, by those with less experience, and for when ETI is not possible. The main goals of our study were to evaluate the success rate and speed of insertion of different supraglottic airway devices and to determine whether the devices could be properly inserted under simulated critical conditions.Methods:Fifty medical students used an airway simulation trainer (Laerdal SimMan 3G) to assess the success rate and time used to insert seven different supraglottic airway devices under simulated physiologic and pathologic conditions in two different runs.Results:Although all airway devices could be inserted without problems, only the Combitube and the EasyTube could be successfully inserted in simulations of trismus, limited mobility of the cervical spine, or a combination of pathologic conditions such as trismus plus limited mobility of the spine and trismus plus tongue edema. The insertion time was significantly longer with LMA Unique, Fastrach, and I-Gel devices in both the first and second runs.Conclusion:The Combitube and the EasyTube were most easily inserted under simulated conditions such as trismus, limited mobility of the cervical spine, and combined pathologic conditions. Although all devices are useful for establishing an airway by nontrained medical students in standard simulations, we suggest that the Combitube and the EasyTube may offer advantages in difficult airway situations.
Core competencies for emergency medicine clerkships: results of a Canadian consensus initiative
Authors: Penciner Rick , Woods Robert A. , McEwen Jill , Lee Richard , Langhan Trevor ,   Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians Undergraduate Education Committee
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACTObjectives:There is no consensus on what constitutes the core competencies for emergency medicine (EM) clerkship rotations in Canada. Existing EM curricula have been developed through informal consensus and often focus on EM content to be known at the end of training rather than what is an appropriate focus for a time-limited rotation in EM. We sought to define the core competencies for EM clerkship in Canada through consensus among an expert panel of Canadian EM educators.Methods:We used a modified Delphi method and the CanMEDS 2005 Physician Competency Framework to develop a consensus among expert EM educators from across Canada.Results:Thirty experts from nine different medical schools across Canada participated on the panel. The initial list consisted of 152 competencies organized in the seven domains of the CanMEDS 2005 Physician Competency Framework. After the second round of the Delphi process, the list of competencies was reduced to 62 (59% reduction). A complete list of competencies is provided.Conclusion:This study established a national consensus defining the core competencies for EM clerkship in Canada.
Spontaneous low cerebrospinal fluid pressure headache: an emergency medicine perspective
Authors: Ahn Justin S. , Akincioglu Cigdem , Gulka Irene , Coome Grant 
Published: July 2016

ABSTRACT:Spontaneous low cerebrospinal fluid pressure headaches are a rare but treatable cause of debilitating headaches. The condition is characterized by a postural headache in the absence of any recent spinal procedures and is exacerbated when upright and relieved when supine. Diagnosis and treatment are often delayed, however, due to a lack of recognition and awareness, as illustrated by this case report of a patient who had multiple emergency department visits before further investigations were sought.
