Digitale, personalisierte Gesundheitsinformationsangebote von Ärzt*innen: Ergebnisse einer Befragung von Patient*innen und Ärzt*innen zu Akzeptanz und Anforderungen

ZusammenfassungHintergrundDie Aneignung von Gesundheitsinformationen ist grundlegend für die Verantwortungsübernahme von Patient*innen. Um dies zu unterstützen, müssen neue Wege der Informationsbereitstellung gefunden werden. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden die digitale, personalisierte Bereitstellung von Gesundheitsinformationen durch Ärzt*innen betrachtet und ihre Verbreitung sowie die Nutzungsintention und Anforderungen von Patient*innen und Ärzt*innen untersucht.MethodenDurchgeführt wurden jeweils eine Online-Befragung einer für die deutsche Bevölkerung stratifizierten Stichprobe von Patient*innen (N = 1000) sowie eine Online-Befragung von Ärzt*innen (N = 364) zum Thema digitale, personalisierte Gesundheitsinformationsangebote. Es wurden die Art der Informationsbereitstellung im ärztlichen Setting, die Nutzungsintention sowie Anforderungen an digitale Informationsangebote erfasst.ErgebnisseDigitale, personalisierte Informationsangebote sind bisher selten. Patient*innen würden ein solches Angebot allerdings befürworten, während Ärzt*innen skeptischer eingestellt sind. Die Patient*innen legen Wert auf die Nutzerfreundlichkeit und die Informationsqualität. In Bezug auf die Darstellungsform werden Texte tendenziell wichtiger eingeschätzt als Videos. Ärzt*innen ist dagegen wichtig, dass das Angebot von einem oder einer vertrauenswürdigen Anbieter*in stammt, leitlinienkonform und kostenlos ist.DiskussionDie Potenziale der digitalen Transformation der Informationsbereitstellung werden bisher nur bedingt ausgeschöpft. Während bei Patient*innen die Grundlage einer erfolgreichen Implementierung gegeben zu sein scheint, gilt es, aufseiten der Ärzt*innen Vorbehalte abzubauen, den Nutzen entsprechender Angebote zu kommunizieren und systemische Anreize zu schaffen.

IMPLEMENTATION OF NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY (NEP) 2020 OF INDIA: A PERSPECTIVE ON PEDAGOGY FROM BHAGWAD GITA

<p>Purpose: The axle of this study is to trace out the educational implications from Bhagwad Gita with specific reference to ‘Pedagogy’ aspect in the successful implementation of National Education Policy-2020 of India. Design/methodology/approach: This study uses qualitative approach and deploys a mix of desktop and Hermeneutics analysis to trace out the educational implications with specific reference to ‘Pedagogy’ aspect while seeking perspective from Bhagwad Gita. The national education policy had been studied in detail and tens of research papers on pedagogy aspect along with a deeper study of Bhagwad Gita were studied to seek a perspective on pedagogy aspect of NEP-2020. Findings: The study concludes that the philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita has great potential to address the some of the crucial aspects of NEP-2020 especially the Pedagogy, which in itself is the most crucial deciding factor in the successful implementation of the NEP-2020. Thus, the success in implementation of NEP-2020 will depend on many factors including the pedagogy used by teachers who have to actually implement the policy at the ground level. The study concludes that the NEP 2020 can be successfully implemented by drawing learning with respect to pedagogy from our ancient treatise Shrimad Bhagwat Gita, which still stands ahead of times. This implies that in order to achieve the objectives of the new education system as laid down by NEP-2020, it is imperative to pay special attention to the pedagogical aspect of teaching, which in turn can be adopted from Bhagwad Gita. Originality/value: This is the first study of its kind where a mix of desktop and Hermeneutics analysis has been used while drawing inferences and relevance from Bhagwad Gita on Pedagogy aspect of NEP-2020, which could become the basis for successful implementation of the same and also for future studies in this direction.</p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0792/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

The LabTogo-Project

A joint project between West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL), the University of Lomé and the German Biomass Research Center (Deutsches Biomasseforschungszentrum; DBFZ) was initiated in 2020. The project aims at evaluating alternative and regenerative energy sources for rural areas and creating the basis for successful implementation. In three different work packages, therefore, biomass potentials should be quantified, technologies should be examined with regard to their suitability and - in the case of biogas application - a research structure, pilot biogas laboratory, should be created that is necessary to enable the sustainable implementation of technologies.

Impact of professionalism of workplace learning support team on learning outcome

Purpose This study aims to understand the impact of professionalism (PR) of the workplace learning support team on learning outcomes. The context of this study is an e-procurement system implementation. Management provides initial formal training (TR) to potential users of the system and also arranges informal learning support by deploying the support team for technical guidance/resolving issues on day-to-day basis for successful implementation. Learning outcome has been measured in terms of perceived ease of use (PEU) by employees and also in terms of the actual use (AU) of the system. This study also explores the role of timely and appropriate initial TR on learning outcomes. Design/methodology/approach An empirical study has been conducted by collecting survey data from 167 employees using an e-procurement system from India. SPSS 22.0 with add-in Process Macro v3.4 developed by Hayes has been used for statistical analysis. Findings The results indicate that the PR of the workplace learning support team positively influences employee’s PEU of the system and also the final required outcome in terms of the AU of the system. This study also found that the employee’s PEU of the system mediates the relationship between the PR of the workplace learning support team and the AU of the system. The result also indicates that higher is the user perception of the appropriateness of initial TR, higher is the effect of PR of the workplace learning team on user learning outcome. Originality/value This study is an attempt to investigate the unexplored aspect of workplace learning. This paper contributes by studying for the first time, the impact of PR of the workplace learning support team and appropriate initial TR in enhancing the learning outcome in the context of e-procurement implementation.

Evaluation of attitudes towards telemedicine as a basis for successful implementation: A cross-sectional survey among postgraduate trainees in family medicine in Germany

BackgroundBy comparison with other countries of the European Union Germany is only middle-ranking in terms of telemedicine usage. There is a relevant gap between the legal framework and the actual state of implementation. Healthcare providers play an important role in this implementation process as they are increasingly confronted with the application of telemedical scenarios. Therefore, the aim of this survey was to determine attitudes towards telemedicine of postgraduate trainees in Family Medicine (FM) in Germany. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted between July and October 2016 among postgraduate trainees in FM throughout Germany. The questionnaire covered four topics: attitudes towards telemedicine, barriers for the implementation of telemedicine, assessment of useful telemedical applications and telemedicine scenarios. A descriptive approach was used to analyze the data in order to derive determinants for the implementation of telemedicine. ResultsIn total, 388 postgraduate trainees from 13 of the 16 federal states in Germany answered the survey. Seventy-eight percent were female. Participants’ mean age was 36 years. The majority of participants believed that only a fraction of the already existing technology in telemedicine is being used (70 %). The largest perceived barrier to telemedicine was data safety concerns. More than half of the participants (54 %) believed that telemedicine would change the doctor-patient relationship. 51 % of the participants were interested in training in telemedicine. In this respect, it is important to note that 27 % of the postgraduate trainees said their willingness to practice in rural areas might be facilitated through the availability of telemedical backup for family physicians. ConclusionsParticipating trainees in FM in Germany think that the potential for telemedicine is not yet fully exploited. Based on the results of this survey the next steps to be taken for the implementation of telemedicine applications can be addressed.

MODERN CAUSATIVE PATHOGENS OF PERITONITIS IN CASES OF THE PERFORATION OF THE STOMACH, SMALL INTESTINE OR COLON IN CHILDREN AND OPTIMIZATION OF THE DIFFERENTIATED TREATMENT OF PATIENTS

67 purulent peritonitis children (excluding newborns) aged of from 1.5 months to 15 years treated in the hospital from 2007 to 2016 for gastric or intestinal perforation at different levels were examined. These children were divided in 2 groups of patients with purulent peritonitis, matched for the gender, age and severity of the disease. The control group of the examined patients comprised 36 children, who were treated in the period of 2007-2012 for a purulent peritonitis of non-appendiceal genesis. The main group of cases included 31purulent peritonitis patients with perforation of the stomach or intestines, who was treated during the period of 2012--2016. In all 67 patients in both groups, the causes of perforation of the hollow organs - the stomach, small intestine or large intestine - with the development of purulent peritonitis were detected and remained the same for years. The severity of the course of purulent peritonitis of non-appendiceal genesis and the difficulty of treating such patients mostly depended on the patient’s age, disease nosology and background diseases. The basis for successful implementation of the treatment is the difference in the etiology of the disease and the degree of danger of the pathogen of the purulent process, depending on the level of perforation of the intestinal tube. Virulence of the pathogen and antibiotic susceptibility of purulent mono- or mixt-infection significantly influenced the severity of purulent peritonitis and the outcome of the treatment. The authors developed and proposed a complex of the differentiated etiopathogenetic treatment of patients with purulent peritonitis of non-appendiceal genesis with a decrease in the mortality rate. The basis for the successful implementation of the treatment is the difference in the etiology of the disease and the degree of danger of the pathogen of the purulent process, depending on the level of perforation of the intestinal tube.
