Developing a South East strategy for health

A strategy is being developed across the South East based on five major themes - inequalities, older adults, children, workforce, and sustainable communities. This presentation looks at the steps being taken to develop this strategy and gives more detail on the expected outcomes.

Learning Disabilities and Health

This factsheet on learning disability has been compiled by the Department of Health South East. It highlights the health inequalities experienced by those with learning disabilities and summarises the main health-related issues. It details key publications such as 'Valuing People Now', which was launched in Jan-09, and provides information about strategies, resources and national drivers including Local Area Agreements. It can serve as a useful tool for PCTs, commissioners, those involved in service development, and those with a public health remit in order to improve practice and health outcomes among those with learning disability at both local and regional levels.

South East England public health factsheets

This collection contains a number of factsheets which have been produced by the Department of Health South East (the Department's presence in the region based in the Government Office for the South East) to promote understanding and awareness of key public health issues affecting the health of the population of the region. The factsheets are not policy documents, but are intended to promote good practice among the wider public health workforce in the NHS, Local Authorities and the voluntary and community sector. Each factsheet contains an overview of the extent and impact of the health issue, as well as a summary of the evidence-base regarding 'what works' to improve health. If you would like any further information on the factsheets, please contact Jo Nurse, Consultant in Public Health (jo.nurse@dh.gsi.gov.uk).

La visite médicale en pratique hospitalière: entre soins et apprentissage [Conducting ward rounds: a balance between care and teaching].

Every day, hospital doctors spend time at conducting ward rounds. Rounds are a core clinical activity during which doctors interact with patients, synthetise a whole set of informations and make many decisions. In addition, rounds can become a crucial teaching moment, when a trainee gets supervised by an attending physician. However, litterature on the topic of rounds is scarce. This paper summarizes the results of the few key studies focusing on ward rounds. The results are presented in four sections, each one being dedicated to one of the round stakeholders: the trainee or resident, the trainer, the patient and the nurse. An emphasis is put on ward rounds involving both a trainee and a trainer, since such rounds always mean striking a balance between care and teaching.

Regional guidelines for nurses when sharing information with NIGALA

Effective safeguarding children practice depends upon information sharing, collaboration and understanding between families, agencies and professionals. Nurses are required to work in partnership with other disciplines and agencies to safeguard and promote the health and wellbeing of children and young people. This includes working in partnership with the guardian ad litem (guardian) appointed by the court when making decisions regarding the best interests of a child or young person.This guidance replaces previous regional guidance. Regional implementation will ensure that information held by nurses is shared with the guardian in a consistent, timely and appropriate manner, so that informed decisions can be made in the best interests of children and young people.

Tienda virtual para una empresa de muebles de cocina

El projecte estarà dedicat a dos tipus de clients: particulars i industrials ia la gestió que s'haurà de fer dels productes oferts (altes, baixes, manteniments, etc.). El web estarà configurada en un servidor d'aplicacions i constarà de dues parts: La interfície de l'administrador per al manteniment dels clients i articles i la interfície del client que li permetrà navegar pel catàleg i així poder fer les comandes dels productes que estiguin interessats. Utilitzarem els estàndards que ofereix el mercat per al programari de servidor (JSP, Struts, J2EE, etc.).

Aplicació web per gestió de tornejos d'escacs amb J2EE

L'aplicació consisteix en un programa web que des d'un navegador ens permet realitzar una sèrie de consultes i de gestions contra una base de dades de tornejos d'escacs. Les gestions i consultes variaran segons el rol d'usuari sigui administrador, gestor o usuari Internet. Així, l'aplicació consta d'un servidor, una base de dades, unes classes entitat Java que treballaran a la capa de model per fer els canvis a la Base de dades, unes pàgines html i jsp, que estaran a la capa de vista, uns fitxers de configuració .xml i uns fitxers .java que actuaran a la capa de control. Els rols s'han implantat a nivell de servidor, amb una pàgina de login, i segons el rol escollit, es tindrà accés a una carpeta (zona) o altra.

DinaWEB : l'organització de recursos accessibles en línia a la Biblioteca Virtual de la Universitat Oberta de Catalunya

El DinaWEB (Dinàmic WEB), és una base de dades desenvolupada per la Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, que té com a objectiu organitzar la informació i els recursos disponibles a la Biblioteca Virtual de la UOC de forma àgil per els usuaris i que permet a l'administrador l'actualització i modificació d'aquests recursos de forma més amigable que fins l'actualitat. La seva funció és substituir les pàgines estàtiques de la intranet de la Biblioteca Virtual de la UOC, per pàgines dinàmiques, generades automàticament per aquesta base de dades.

Acquisition and cross-transmission of Staphylococcus aureus in European intensive care units

Objective. To study the acquisition and cross-transmission of Staphylococcus aureus in different intensive care units (ICUs). Methods. We performed a multicenter cohort study. Six ICUs in 6 countries participated. During a 3-month period at each ICU, all patients had nasal and perineal swab specimens obtained at ICU admission and during their stay. All S. aureus isolates that were collected were genotyped by spa typing and multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis typing for cross-transmission analysis. A total of 629 patients were admitted to ICUs, and 224 of these patients were found to be colonized with S. aureus at least once during ICU stay (22% were found to be colonized with methicillin-resistant S. aureus [MRSA]). A total of 316 patients who had test results negative for S. aureus at ICU admission and had at least 1 follow-up swab sample obtained for culture were eligible for acquisition analysis. Results. A total of 45 patients acquired S. aureus during ICU stay (31 acquired methicillin-susceptible S. aureus [MSSA], and 14 acquired MRSA). Several factors that were believed to affect the rate of acquisition of S. aureus were analyzed in univariate and multivariate analyses, including the amount of hand disinfectant used, colonization pressure, number of beds per nurse, antibiotic use, length of stay, and ICU setting (private room versus open ICU treatment). Greater colonization pressure and a greater number of beds per nurse correlated with a higher rate of acquisition for both MSSA and MRSA. The type of ICU setting was related to MRSA acquisition only, and the amount of hand disinfectant used was related to MSSA acquisition only. In 18 (40%) of the cases of S. aureus acquisition, cross-transmission from another patient was possible. Conclusions. Colonization pressure, the number of beds per nurse, and the treatment of all patients in private rooms correlated with the number of S. aureus acquisitions on an ICU. The amount of hand disinfectant used was correlated with the number of cases of MSSA acquisition but not with the number of cases of MRSA acquisition. The number of cases of patient-to-patient cross-transmission was comparable for MSSA and MRSA.
