Fortalezas y amenazas en torno a la seguridad del paciente según la opinión de los profesionales de enfermería

The aim of this research is to know the barriers and opportunities that nursing professionals detect in their clinical practice in order to develop the culture of patient safety and to identify future research lines. This qualitative study is based on the DELPHI method, with a group of 19 nursing professionals from education and care practice, involving both primary and specialized care. Weaknesses and threats revolve around five categories: profession, organization and infrastructure; indicators; communication and safety culture; and safety training. Opportunities to improve safety cover six categories: organizational change; promotion of the safety culture, professional training and development; relationship with the patients; research; and strategic planning. Work is needed to improve safety and nursing should be ready to assume this leadership.

Measuring sustained superior performance at the firm level

This paper proposes a two-dimensional Strategic Performance Measure (SPM) to evaluate the achievement of sustained superior performance. This proposal builds primarily on the fact that, under the strategic management perspective, a firm's prevalent objective is the pursuit of sustained superior performance. Three basicconceptual dimensions stem from this objective: relativity, sign dependence, and dynamism. These are the foundations of the SPM, which carries out a separate evaluation of the attained superior performance and of its sustainability over time. In contrast to existing measures of performance, the SPM provides: (i) a dynamic approach by considering the progress or regress in performance over time, and (ii) a cardinal measurement of performance differences and its changes over time. The paper also proposes an axiomatic framework that ameasure of strategic performance should comply with to be theoretically and managerially sound. Finally, anempirical illustration of the Spanish banking sector during 1987-1999 is herein provided by discussing some relevant case

Adaptive business intelligence for an open negotiation environment

Engineering of negotiation model allows to develop effective heuristic for business intelligence. Digital ecosystems demand open negotiation models. To define in advance effective heuristics is not compliant with the requirement of openness. The new challenge is to develop business intelligence in advance exploiting an adaptive approach. The idea is to learn business strategy once new negotiation model rise in the e-market arena. In this paper we present how recommendation technology may be deployed in an open negotiation environment where the interaction protocol models are not known in advance. The solution we propose is delivered as part of the ONE Platform, open source software that implements a fully distributed open environment for business negotiation

BIB21. Cap a un nou model de biblioteques al servei de les universitats públiques de Catalunya

Els canvis que s'estan produint a les universitats provocats per l'adaptació dels estudis a l'anomenat Espai Europeu d'Educació Superior (EEES), que ha de fer-se realitat l'any 2010, representen també un gran repte per a les biblioteques universitàries, que estan treballant per adaptar els seus recursos i serveis a les noves exigències de l'educació superior. Les biblioteques han establert models organitzatius i de col·laboració que, en un entorn marcat per l'ús intensiu de les tecnologies de la informació i pel fenomen de l'èxit de cercadors com Google, han de permetre superar amb èxit reptes com ara el suport al desenvolupament dels nous plans d'estudi dissenyats per competències tot potenciant i introduint la formació dels usuaris en l'adquisició d'habilitats informacionals; el disseny de sistemes d'informació robustos que donin suport a la producció científica i acadèmica dels investigadors i dels professors i li aportin valor, mitjançant dipòsits oberts d'informació i de documentació; la personalització dels serveis o l'adaptació dels espais a un model educatiu centrat en l'aprenentatge actiu de l'estudiant. Aquest article resumeix les principals actuacions i reptes de futur que recull amb detall l'informe encarregat per l'Associació Catalana d'Universitats Públiques (ACUP) als directors de les biblioteques, en el marc de l'elaboració del futur llibre blanc de les universitats.
