50 Continuing Essential Education During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Virtual Neonatal Skills Training
Authors: Aguirre Diana , Brown Sebastian , Negrine Robert , Nash Matthew 
Published: January 2022

Practical procedures are integral to neonatal care. All first-year paediatric specialist trainees (ST1s) are expected to develop essential skills from their first neonatal placement. However, many trainees join the speciality with minimal prior exposure. With recent changes in junior doctors’ contracts, reduced working hours and evolving clinical practices, trainees may not get enough clinical exposure to acquire required skills. Simulation is recognized as essential to bridge this training gap The aim of the study was to adapt neonatal skills training to virtual delivery.In September 2020, we trialled a half-day virtual training course for new trainees on core topics. The first part included ‘Human Factors’ followed by ‘Stabilization of the premature infant’ using a pre-recorded simulation followed by a live debrief. The second part covered ‘intubation and difficult airway’ followed by ‘vascular access’. We used interactive lectures and pre-recorded demonstrations. A full-day course was then organized for new trainees in March 2021. We included additional sessions on ‘Newborn Infant Physical Examination’ (NIPE), ‘chest drain insertion’ and ‘journal club’, including sign posting to the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP). Interaction was encouraged to facilitate peer bonding. A Paediatric Trainee Committee representative also joined to outline the support available for trainees. We followed a similar structure to the first course but added live simulation demonstrations of equipment and techniques.Seventeen trainees attended the full-day course. A number of candidates rating the sessions as extremely useful were 16 for ‘Stabilization of the premature infant’ and ‘intubation and difficult airway’, 14 for ‘Human Factors’ and ‘NIPE’, 12 for ‘vascular access’ and ‘chest drain insertion’ and 11 for Journal club. Trainees commented positively on the videos, equipment demonstration, level of interactivity and overall usefulness of the course. Nine trainees commented on desire for additional face-to-face training.After balancing the safety and learning needs of trainees, we adapted an established face-to-face skills day for virtual delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic. Whilst we recognize that virtual training is not a substitute for doing, we were able to maintain essential education during highly pressured times. Feedback demonstrates that our virtual teaching programme was well received and useful. It also emphasizes the value of actual practice and the urgency to restore hands-on training as soon as possible.
120 Cervical Spine Injury Immobilization and Management: Addressing the Gap in Knowledge and Improving Systems through Multi-Disciplinary <i>in situ</i> Simulation in a Busy Emergency Department
Authors: Pughe George , Smith Matthew , Atkinson Ben 
Published: January 2022

Cervical spine (C-spine) injuries are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in the elderly population The aims of the study were to identify clinician knowledge gaps when starting EM, create a simulation-based teaching program to address these weaknesses and to improve multi-disciplinary systems relating to C-spine injury immobilization and management.A sample of 20 clinicians finishing their EM rotation in April 2021 at Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth, completed a survey listing conditions/procedures they would have appreciated simulation scenarios on as part of induction. A 30-minute C-spine simulation station was designed focussing on knowledge gaps identified, incorporating Canadian C-spine rules, immobilization, radiological investigation and treatment. Sessions were delivered About 70% of surveyed candidates included ‘C-spine’ within conditions/procedures they desired simulation teaching on. Candidate feedback suggested high levels of enjoyment with 100% of candidates scoring 7 or 8/8. The mean confidence of candidates before and after the session increased by 30.6% (52%–82.6%). 100% of candidates felt that the session was useful in improving day-to-day practice and 67.7% of candidates envisaged implementing teachings within the next week (96.8% within the next 3 months).In a busy department, it is important to prioritize education and address workforce knowledge gaps. Trauma and C-spine injury appear to be an area of under-confidence in junior clinicians starting in EM. Short
3 The Implementation of Simulated Placements in Undergraduate Healthcare Courses During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Kirkham Lucy , Clark Debbie 
Published: January 2022

In 2020 many healthcare students lost placement hours due to COVID-19. In response to this crisis, simulated placements were implemented to ensure students were able to achieve their practice hours. A pilot project was undertaken in November 2020. This was then developed at pace into a simulated placement module that could accommodate around 3,500 students by the start of January 2021. Nursing and Midwifery Council guidance was updated in February 2021 The study aimed to enable nursing students to maintain their hours as required by the NMC, and provide evidence to demonstrate achievement of their competencies. It also aimed to ensure patients and service users from all fields were represented within the activities.A module blackboard site was developed online to house the materials. Each activity was mapped to the cohort-specific proficiencies which needed to be achieved for that particular level of study (BSc and MSc). A wide range of activities were included such as Oxford Medical Simulation, detailed case studies and scenarios including ‘talking head’ style videos and patient documentation, service user interviews, analysing Care Opinion patient feedback, and 360-degree tours of a patient’s home to undertake a risk assessment.Students were able to access the simulated placements if waiting for a clinical placement due to lack of availability, if course completion was delayed due to ‘opting out’, or if the student was self-isolating or shielding. Students received comprehensive guidance as well as regular YouTube updates to walk them through the process. A mixture of live online sessions and self-directed activities were included and engagement was logged on a placement timesheet. There were also activities and live sessions focussing on student well-being and preparation for placements. It was also important to include activities focussing on other fields of nursing such as mother and baby or learning disabilities. A reflection was then uploaded to the digital placement assessment document so that it could be accessed virtually by the practice assessor and academic assessor. The simulated placements have since expanded into the Allied Health Professional courses within the university and it has been valuable to undertake interprofessional resource sharing to further enhance the simulated placements experience.
57 Using <i>in situ</i> Simulation to Respond to Critical Incidents in Emergency Medicine
Authors: Matson Andrew , Holmes Catherine , Mulqueen Clare , Thompson Demi 
Published: January 2022

simulation (ISS) has been shown to be an effective tool in delivering education to the inter-professional team in the Emergency Department (ED) The aim of the study was o describe how simulation has improved learning and development from critical incidents.A simulated case is built around specific clinical incidents. Four were identified having occurred within the timeframe: missed abdominal aortic aneurysm, ischaemic limb, digoxin toxicity and ruptured ectopic pregnancy. The aim is to use ISS as a tool to educate colleagues about these presentations and as a way of checking that there are no system issues in managing such cases. Our ISS process involves either an ‘actor’ or a low-fidelity manikin with an ‘app’ providing a monitor. All equipment is sought and used in real time to attempt to simulate as close to real life as possible. The scenario utilizes junior doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants, trainee nurse associates and students. A senior team member is included if required. The participants are both briefed and debriefed, and learning points are disseminated via email placed on the ‘MYED’ Facebook group as well as the ‘MYEDSim’ ‘padlet’ page.The ISS was run between October 2020 and May 2021. A total of 23 participants answered the nine questions on the post-ISS feedback form from the four incidents. Results are summarized in Figure 1. The participants were asked to record learning points from the sessions and suggestions for improvement. Key themes appear to be communication, team working and location of equipment in the department.By running simulations of critical incidents, we have identified deficiencies in areas within individual’s knowledge, factors shaping inter-professional team working and system failings from the wider trust which contribute to these events. This has led to wide dissemination of learning and knowledge sharing on various departmental social media/communication platforms and has allowed development and modification of clinical guidance and pathways within Mid-Yorkshire NHS Trust to reduce risks of further incidents occurring.

Otvaranje neotvorenih ili slabo otvorenih šumskih područja moguće je uraditi korektno samo ukoliko je urađena detaljna analiza postojeće mreže šumskih puteva.
Pomenuta analiza treba, između ostalog, dati odgovore na pitanja o količini i kvalitetu postojeće mreže puteva, te ukazati na eventulne nedostatke.
U radu je na izabranoj šumskoj površini snimljena postojeća mreža puteva. Izračunata je otvorenost analizirane površine i srednja transportna distanca privlačenja.
Otvorene i neotvorene površine definisane su na taj način što su se oko postojeće mreže šumskih kamionskih puteva kreirali baferi. Izračunata je relativna otvorenost i koeficijent efikasnosti otvaranja.
U radu je određena ciljana srednja transportna distanca privlačenja, za koju su izdvojene otvorene i neotvorene šumske površine.
Izračunati pokazatelji otvorenosti šumskog područja su analizirani, interpretirani i dati su odgovarajući zaključci. Analiza je urađena uz podršku računara – GIS softwer (Geographic Information System).

U radu se analizira prisustvo rizomorfi gljiva roda Armillaria u dva šumska ekosistema: gospodarskoj šumi i prašumi planinskog kompleksa Bjelašnica – Igman. Objekti istraživanja pripadaju šumama bukve i jele sa smrčom koje su dominantno zastupljene u ukupnom šumskom resursu Bosne i Hercegovine. Ciljevi istraživanja su bili: (1) utvrđivanje intenziteta prisustva rizomorfi Armillaria spp. u tlu istraživanih šumskih ekosistema, (2) analiza značaja prisustva ovih struktura po zdravstveno stanje šuma i (3) razmatranje uticaja gospodarskih mjera na zakonitosti njihove pojave. Prisustvo podzemnih rizomorfi gljiva utvrđivano je na presjecištima kvadratne mreže rastojanja 75 m x 75 m, u tri cilindrična uzorka zemljišta Ø 15 cm, dubine do 15 cm. Pored prisustva rizomorfi, na presjecištima – stajnim tačkama opažano je zdravstveno stanje drveća i grmlja te karakter gospodarskih mjera. Rezultati istraživanja daju uvid u prisustvo rizomorfi u tlu istraživanih objekata i omogućavaju sagledavanje značaja mikrostaništa za bujnost rasta ovih struktura, što je od značaja i za planiranje i za realizaciju gospodarskih mjera u srodnim šumskim ekosistemima.

Rad je rezultat izlova jedinki potočnog raka Austropotamobius torrentium iz Nahorevskog potoka u periodu od augusta 2006. do maja 2007. godine. Analiza je obuhvatila i fizičko/hemijske paramtere vode i sastav zoobentosa Nahorevskog potoka. Utvrđeno je da voda spada u kategoriju oligo/betamesosaprobnih ili II kategorije, čista sa manjom količinom alohtone organske materiije u vodotoku. Mjerenjem dužine potočnog raka (šest izlovljenih ženki i pet mužjaka), utvrđeno je da ona varira od 4,5 do 7 cm kod ženke i 1,54 do 7 cm kod mužjaka. Statističkom obradom utvrđeno je da najviše varira težina, a najstabilniji karakter je dužina tijela. Izračunata vrijednost Fulton´s Conditions Factor (RICKER, 1975) i Crayfish Constant, (ADEGBOYE, 1981) ukazuje da je mužjak u boljem kondicionom stanju, što je i rezultat dosadašnjih istraživanja u Evropi. Doprinos rada je utvrđivanje habitata ili staništa potočnog ili raka kamenjara na prostorima Bosne i Hercegovine, koji je 1994. godine uvršten u IUCN listu za prostor naše države.

Postoji rastuća potreba za izgradnju novih šumskih puteva i moderniziranje postojeće mreže puteva u šumskim gazdinstvima (šumarstvu) Bosne i Hercegovine. Mostovi na šumskim putevima su, prema troškovima izgradnje i tehničkim karakteritikama, najznačajnije strukture na šumskim putevima. Istraživanja na terenu potvrđuju da je veliki broj mostova napravljenih od drvne građe i čelika još uvijek u upotrebi na šumskim putevima Bosne i Hercegovine. Većina tih mostova su ipak u lošem stanju, katkad čak zatvorena za saobraćaj ili posve uklonjeni. Ovaj rad uspoređuje konstrukcije od drvne građe za kratko premošćenje, čelične i mostove od armiranog betona, koji se najčešće grade na šumskim putevima u Bosni i Hercegovini, uključujući kompozitne mostove ili jednostavne strukturalne sisteme, koji su prikladni za izgradnju mostova za kratko premošćenje na šumskim putevima. Prikazani rezultati pokazuju značajne prednosti u usporedbi s kompozitnim strukturama od drvne građe, čelika i betonskih mostova. Osim navedenog, mostovske konstrukcije predstavljaju optimalno rješenje prilikom proticaja velikih voda, kakav je slučaj kod bujičnih tokova.

Mnogi investitori iz raznih razloga nisu u mogućnosti dobiti i koristiti bankarske kredite pa se nalaze pred složenim problemom, kako realizirati željenu investiciju bilo u cijelosti ili završiti, zbog nedostatka investicijskih sredstva. U takvoj situaciji stoji im na raspolaganju leasing aranžman, koji će brzo i efikasno riješiti problem. Leasing usluga temelji se na: brzom rješenju zahtjeva, jednostavnosti procedura obrazaca, jednostavnim garancijama otplate kredita, dogovaranju o roku otplate, visokoj vjerovatnoći za dobijanje odobrenja finansiranja te kvalitetu usluga i poslovnosti.
Cilj ovog rada je da ukaže da pri nabavci opreme u šumarstvu, kao i u drugim djelatnostima, strateški je povoljnije koristiti leasing aranžman nego bankarski kredit. Leasing usluga omogućava nabavku opreme u šumarstvu i na taj način povećava investicione aktivnosti kako u šumarstvu tako i u drugim djelatnostima u BiH.
Za dokazivanje postavljene teorije koristit će se primarna istraživanja kod korisnika leasing usluga. Naučnom analizom utvrdiće se dosadašnje zadovoljstvo klijenata u poslovanju sa bankama i leasing kompanijama. Na temelju ovoga rada pojedine leasing kompanije mogu aplikativno primijeniti na naučnoj osnovi prikupljene podatke, na povećanju obima prodaje svojih usluga, a time i poboljšanja svojih rezultata i ciljeva poslovanja.

A simple and inexpensive method for the determination of inorganic As(III) and As(V) at low ppb levels was developed. The method is based on formation of hydride from a sample solution and its reaction with mercury bromide on a solid support. Formation of a yellow-brownish product was optically detected.
Amidosulfonic acid was used as a reaction medium for determination of total inorganic arsenic, while citrate buffer (0.1 mol/dm3, pH=5.5) was used as a reaction media for determination of As(III) alone. As(V) was calculated as a difference of total inorganic arsenic and As(III).
This method has been applied to soil extracts. Extraction of inorganic arsenic from soil samples was done in three-step sequential extraction with the following extractants: NH4H2PO4 (0.05 mol/dm3); NH4-oxalate buffer (0.2 mol/dm3, pH=3.25); and mixture of NH4-oxalate buffer (0.2 mol/dm3) and ascorbic acid (0.1 mol/dm3) at pH=3.25. The method was suitable for determination of inorganic arsenic species in soil extracts covering concentration range of the analyte between 0.2 - 20 ppb.

Last decades permanent researches clarify possibilities for forest resource estimation based on terrestrial measurement and remote sensing. The most often the non- parametrical k-NN method is used integrating local estimates from terrestrial measurement and spectral Landsat data. In this paper the weighting functions of the k- NN related to value differences and distances were examined in a case of high forest in site Konjuh in Bosnia. It is found that weighting Euclidean distance has not resulted with efficiency increase. Procentual RMSE's of growing stock showed higher values for weighted estimates on the pixel level. Classified volume estimates on aggregated level compared with volumes from intensive regular forest inventory achieved moderate level of agreement. The agreements between volume estimates are almost perfect regardless on weighting functions. Obtained results point out unweighted estimates as reported in several cases.

According to FAO, the total forest area in Bosnia-Herzegovina amounts 2.709.769 ha or 53,4% of overall state territory. While the total area of private forests is 523.437 ha, private forest ownership is characterized by huge number of small-scale and fragmented individual estates. The aim of this research is to examine how the groups of private forest owners can be created with different clustering methods, regarding different criteria. The data presented in this paper are obtained from PRIFORT project (Research into the Organizations of Private Forest Owners Associations in the Western Balkan Region). Results show that private forest owners in Bosnia- Herzegovina can be grouped in three clusters by using different clustering methods, based on criteria defined in advance. Significant differences in willingness of private forest owners (PFO) to join to their interest associations are noticed for identified clusters. From forest policy aspect, the clusters gathering homogenous groups of private forest owners should be treated by different policy instruments (regulatory, economical or informational) in order to ensure better contribution of private forests to overall economical, ecological and social outcomes expected from forests as the most important natural resources in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
