Análisis sobre la destrucción y creación de valor dentro del sector de la salud en Bogotá

Una de las maneras que existen para lograr niveles de ingreso mayores y a su vez incrementar las posibilidades de perdurabilidad de las empresas es la generación de valor, el cual permite que las compañías tengan la capacidad de adaptarse a su entorno y así sacar provecho del mismo. Sin embargo, son pocas las herramientas con las que dichas empresas cuentan para determinar de manera efectiva la creación o destrucción de valor que se genera a través del tiempo. El presente proyecto tiene como fin utilizar la herramienta del Valor Económico Agregado (EVA, por sus siglas en inglés) para analizar específicamente la creación de valor en un periodo de cinco años en el sector de la salud en Bogotá, tomando como base de investigación los hospitales pertenecientes al nivel III de atención dentro del total de la red hospitalaria de la capital del país. De igual manera, el análisis permitirá realizar proyecciones acerca de la creación de valor, cuyos resultados serán utilizados como base para evaluar estrategias que permitan a las empresas de este sector mantener dicho valor a través del tiempo o revertir una situación desfavorable en el caso que los resultados arrojados evidencien una destrucción de valor dentro de las instituciones prestadoras de salud. Para llegar a comprender el alcance de estos resultados, este proyecto explicará en qué consiste el valor, cómo se mide en las empresas y la viabilidad y aplicación de estas medidas en el caso específico de las sociedades colombianas pertenecientes al sector de la salud.

Distribution profiles of key weather variables in Australian capital cities : implications for energy efficient building design

Local climate is a critical element in the design of energy efficient buildings. In this paper, ten years of historical weather data in Australia's eight capital cities were profiled and analysed to characterize the variations of climatic variables in Australia. The method of descriptive statistics was employed. Either the pattern of cumulative distribution and/or the profile of percentage distribution are presented. It was found that although weather variables vary with different locations, there is often a good, nearly linear relation between a weather variable and its cumulative percentage for the majority of middle part of the cumulative curves. By comparing the slopes of these distribution profiles, it may be possible to determine the relative range of changes of the particular weather variables for a given city. The implications of these distribution profiles of key weather variables on energy efficient building design are also discussed.

Infertility in Australia circa 1980 : an historical population perspective on the uptake of fertility treatment by Australian women born in 1946-51

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of lifetime infertility in Australian women born in 1946-51 and examine their uptake of treatment. Methods: Participants in the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health born in 1946-51 (n=13,715) completed up to four mailed surveys from 1996 to 2004. The odds of infertility were estimated using logistic regression with adjustment for socio-demographic and reproductive factors. Results: Among participants, 92.1% had been pregnant. For women who had been pregnant (n=12738): 56.5% had at least one birth but no pregnancy loss (miscarriage and/or termination); 39.9% experienced both birth and loss; and 3.6% had a loss only. The lifetime prevalence of infertility was 11.0%. Among women who reported infertility (n=1511), 41.7% used treatment. Women had higher odds of infertility when they had reproductive histories of losses only (OR range 9.0-43.5) or had never been pregnant (OR=15.7, 95%CI 11.8-20.8); and higher odds for treatment: losses only (OR range 2.5-9.8); or never pregnant (1.96, 1.28-3.00). Women who delayed their first birth until aged 30+ years had higher odds of treatment (OR range 3.2-4.3). Conclusions: About one in ten women experienced infertility and almost half used some form of treatment, especially those attempting pregnancy after 1980. Older first time mothers had an increased uptake of treatment as assisted reproductive technologies (ART) developed. Implications: This study provided evidence of the early uptake of treatment prior to 1979 when the national register of invasive ART was developed and later uptake prior to 1998 when data on non-invasive ART were first collected.

Health and guardianship law : guardianship and administration application in the matter of MDC [2014] QCAT 338

The recent decision of the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) in Guardianship and administration application in the matter of MDC [2014] QCAT 338, provides an important ruling on the limits of who can be appointed as an enduring power of attorney under the Powers of Attorney Act 1998 (Qld). In particular, the tribunal adopted a broad interpretation of the term "health provider" when considering the limits on who can be appointed as an enduring power of attorney under the legislation...
