Implementation Of Development Plan Research Articles

The vital role of stakeholders and National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups (NITAGs)

Abstract To successfully implement comprehensive, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches, collaborative, cross-sectoral policy and strategies are essential. This is critical not only for addressing shared challenges but also for developing effective intervention strategies. One of the main hurdles in any collective action initiative is the ability to galvanize diverse stakeholders, each with their unique set of interests and capacity. EUVABECO is dedicated to conducting pilots, and developing implementation plans that are not only effective but also adaptable and sustainable across various healthcare settings in Europe. The healthcare environments across the pilot countries exhibit considerable variability, including differences in epidemiological trends, immunization information systems, vaccine nomenclature, and the dynamics of collaboration with National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups (NITAGs). Throughout implementation, the cooperation between these diverse stakeholders and NITAGs will be crucial, notably to share local vaccination policies for integration into the Clinical Decision Support (CDS) system. EUVABECO’s goal is to craft implementation plans that are flexible enough to be tailored to local needs, ensuring that interventions are both practical and effective in each unique context. This presentation will explore the vital role that stakeholders and NITAGs play in this process, highlighting the importance of their involvement for the success of EUVABECO’s initiatives.

Enhancing preparedness by developing robust implementation

Abstract In EUVABECO, a goal is defined as a public health objective that motivates a vaccination practice. A vaccination practice encompasses specific methods or approaches used in vaccination efforts, while a tool refers to a tangible resource or software developed to support the implementation of these practices. EUVABECO is undertaking a series of structured activities from January 2024 until mid-2026. These include mapping innovative practices, deriving requirements for tools and validation plans, developing implementation plans, and facilitating their adoption by European MS. The project will also evaluate, validate, and verify these plans to ensure their efficacy and sustainability. EUVABECO’s methodology is informed by the Systems Development Lifecycle (SDLC) framework, utilizing the V-model to ensure a strong linkage between the development and testing phases, thereby guaranteeing a cohesive workflow. Each implementation plan developed will feature comprehensive policy recommendations and a workplan that covers the necessary organizational, technical, legal, and ethical aspects required for the tool’s deployment. Additionally, these plans will include tailored strategies to enhance the tool’s functionality during outbreaks, criteria for verifying implementation effectiveness, and financial considerations critical for supporting adoption. The implementation plans will undergo a rigorous validation process to assess their suitability, transferability, and sustainability across MS. The ultimate goal is to disseminate validated plans whilst ensuring a parallel multistakeholder engagement approach to ensure MS are actively involved in key project phases, thus, facilitating rapid uptake of said plans across EU MS and a transformation of the vaccination ecosystem across Europe.

STATE POLICY AS A FORM OF TARGETED STATE ACTIVITY

The article examines state policy as an organized and purposeful activity of the state, which provides for the protection of public interests, ensures the adoption of balanced and justified state decisions, and contributes to the stable development of Ukrainian society. Issues of state policy formation in the system of planning and implementation of development plans of modern society are considered. It was determined that with the transition from bureaucratic forms to innovative methods of managing the state and society, state policy acquires certain signs of publicity, due to the involvement of both state and non-state public organizations in its implementation. It has been proven that the European integration of Ukraine is accompanied by changes in state policy, which is based on European values ​​and standards for the formation of a legal, social and democratic state. Therefore, it is better to use the term «public policy», as active purposeful actions of the state based on the cooperation of state institutions, civil society institutions, as well as non-state organizations and individual citizens. It is noted that the participatory theory of democracy should become a universal principle of organizing the public policy of the Ukrainian state. Because the basis of the effective functioning of participatory democracy is a developed civil society, as well as public trust in the activities of state and public institutions, that is, citizens' confidence in the correctness of the actions of public authorities to implement the goals announced by the state. It is substantiated that modern state (public) policy, firstly, is designed to ensure public expression of will, expression of interests and needs of the population and their practical implementation at the level of power institutions; secondly, it should be based on the principles of: openness, transparency and democracy; thirdly, in the process of development and implementation of political decisions, civil society institutions should be involved in this work. The specific characteristics of state policy as an active activity are singled out, which distinguish it from a whole array of other types of policies. In further studies, it is suggested to pay attention to the normative and legal regulation of state policy.

Doing with or doing to? A realist case study of factors affecting the implementation of guidance on child sexual exploitation in Wales

There is currently limited research which considers the implementation of new policies in child protection practice. In this article, we explore policy implementation in children’s social care using recent Welsh policy on Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) as a case study. We conducted a realist evaluation of the implementation of the new CSE guidance in a two-phased study. The development of an initial programme theory was done during phase 1 of the study and is discussed in a previous article. In this article we focus on the programme theory refinement, presenting our hypotheses and findings from semi-structured interviews, observation of practice and a Wales-wide survey, which illustrate how aspects of the context and the organisation have an impact on policy implementation. Our findings highlight the importance of clear implementation plans which engage key stakeholders and are appropriately resourced. We suggest recommendations for developing implementation plans, including appropriate training materials, access to formal and informal collaborative spaces for knowledge exchange, and the importance of a supportive organisational structure. These findings illustrate how child protection policies are implemented in practice by local authorities in Wales and shed light on how policies can be more effectively implemented in practice.

Study on sodium-ion anode material - Graphene battery

Batteries are the most common form of energy storage. Sodium-ion batteries are gradually replacing traditional lithium-ion batteries, becoming a key factor restricting their safety, service life, energy density and capacity. With the continuous consumption of energy by human society, the increasing scarcity of mineral resources, and the increasingly severe environmental problems. It is an urgent task to seek new, renewable and clean energy. Sodium-ion battery is expected to be a new type of charge/discharge device because of its high energy conversion efficiency, high energy density, long cycle life, environmental friendliness and good economy. The development of new green and high-efficiency large-capacity energy storage technology is great significance for promoting China’s green and low-carbon energy development. It is great significance for the implementation of China’s “double carbon” strategy. Sodium-ion battery is the most important class of secondary batteries. Sodium-ion battery has high rate, good low temperature resistance, suitable for low salt concentration electrolyte, high safety and other characteristics. The sodium is abundant in the earth, low price, low REDOX potential. That is a class of secondary batteries with great application prospects. With the progress of society and the sustainable development of economy, people’s demand for sodium-ion batteries is also increasing. The “14th Five-Year Plan” New Energy Storage Development Implementation Plan clearly points out that is necessary to carry out the test and demonstration of a new generation of high energy density storage technology represented by sodium-ion batteries.

Addressing Missed Opportunities for Vaccination among Children in Hospitals: Leveraging the P-Process for Health Communication Strategies.

Addressing missed opportunities for vaccination requires a nuanced and context-specific approach. The five-step P-Process provides a robust framework to develop a clearly defined strategy that addresses social and behavioral drivers, integrates into existing health delivery systems, and facilitates collaboration with local experts. This approach allows teams to design, implement, monitor, and evaluate strategies to address public health issues. However, its specific application in vaccination communication programs remains relatively underexplored and under-documented. Our team designed a multi-pronged communication intervention aimed at enhancing vaccine uptake among hospitalized children in two tertiary hospitals in India and Nigeria. In the Inquiry stage, we conducted in-depth interviews with caregivers of hospitalized children to assess barriers to vaccination in a hospital setting. In the Strategic Development stage, we developed a blueprint for activities, identifying target audiences and communication channels and developing implementation plans. During the Create and Test stage, we brought together a range of stakeholders to co-develop a communication intervention through human-centered design workshops, after which we piloted the materials in both hospitals. We then Mobilized and Monitored progress of the activities to identify potential gaps that our materials did not initially address. Lastly, in the Evaluate and Evolve stage, we conducted in-depth interviews with healthcare workers and caregivers to measure outcomes and assess the impact on caregivers' decisions to vaccinate their hospitalized children. By following the P-Process for the design, caregivers reported that many of their concerns about vaccines were alleviated, and HCWs reported that they were able to communicate with caregivers more effectively about vaccination. By harnessing the power of the P-Process, researchers can forge a context-specific path towards impactful vaccination communication interventions, one step at a time.

Mapping Stakeholders in the Development of Eco-Cities: Insights from Nepal and Indonesia

Urban areas are dynamic and intricate, encompassing various social, economic, ecological, and cultural aspects. It's crucial to employ effective approaches and management methods to achieve sustainable urban development. Stakeholder analysis is pivotal in understanding their roles and responsibilities in this process. By analyzing potential stakeholders and their responsibilities, enhances achieving development goals. This paper uses ‘solid waste bank’ and ‘socio-cultural water management approach’ case of Surabaya, Indonesia and Lalitpur, Nepal respectively. The challenges stakeholders face when implementing have been studied and mapped. Additionally, the significance of stakeholders in implementing development plans and policies has been reviewed through relevant journals and reports, considering the current cases of solid waste management and water management only. The mapping of stakeholders’ problems and prospects revealed that none of the stakeholders had low influence and low importance in both Nepal and Indonesia. This finding suggests that further studies could explore other relevant aspects of the stakeholder dynamics that could contribute to developing eco-city in both the countries. Also mapping, synthesizing both situation and stakeholder of other practices, and upgrading the practices as well may help achieve eco-city, which is unique, inclusive and has the contextual flavors.

D3 Receptor-Targeted Cariprazine: Insights from Lab to Bedside.

Until the late 1800s, drug development was a chance finding based on observations and repeated trials and errors. Today, drug development must go through many iterations and tests to ensure it is safe, potent, and effective. This process is a long and costly endeavor, with many pitfalls and hurdles. The aim of the present review article is to explore what is needed for a molecule to move from the researcher bench to the patients' bedside, presented from an industry perspective through the development program of cariprazine. Cariprazine is a relatively novel antipsychotic medication, approved for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar mania, bipolar depression, and major depression as an add-on. It is a D3-preferring D3-D2 partial agonist with the highest binding to the D3 receptors compared to all other antipsychotics. Based on the example of cariprazine, there are several key factors that are needed for a molecule to move from the researcher bench to the patients' bedside, such as targeting an unmet medical need, having a novel mechanism of action, and a smart implementation of development plans.

Securing administrative leadership commitment for anticoagulation stewardship programs

AbstractAnticoagulation is a leading cause of medication‐related harm. As a result, there is increasing recognition of the importance of the development of anticoagulation stewardship programs to ensure safe and effective anticoagulation use across health care settings. Securing administrative leadership support to build such programs is a necessary first step but is often a significant barrier to implementation. Herein, we present a structured approach to guide providers advocating to leadership for stewardship programs at their institutions. We divide the approach into four phases: (1) Build the foundation, (2) Select stewardship initiatives, (3) Develop implementation plans, and (4) Prepare and present a business plan. Within each phase, we outline specific actions to consider, all leading up to the end goal of creating a compelling business plan to generate administrative leadership buy‐in. We also provide resources to promote the understanding of institutional needs as well as broader trends across health systems that influence stewardship program development. Our aim is to provide stewardship advocates with the tools to effectively secure leadership support to facilitate the development of Anticoagulation Stewardship Programs across all health care institutions.

Optimization of expropriation costs on the highway projects in Türkiye

Expropriation is widely used to introduce highway projects into the society. Expropriation is the registration process of real estate and equities owned by natural and legal persons on behalf of the administration for public interest, provided that property and easement right amount shall be paid in cash or in advance or by equal installments. In what situations and by which institutions expropriation is carried out are restricted by the law. In accordance with the Article 3 of the Expropriation Law Number 2942 amended by the Law Number 4650, the expropriation process shall not be started without an adequate allowance provided by the administration. The exercise of the right of property shall not be against public interest.” Project areas are required to be converted into public property after the development plans for the public projects are prepared. Areas regarded as private property but intersected by highway, railway or waterway routes can only be occupied after expropriation. Without expropriation, projects based on transportation in improvement areas can be opened to public with the application of the provisions of the Development Law Number 3194, while those in areas having no development plan can be opened to public with the application of the relevant provisions of the Agricultural Reform Law Number 3083 on Land Consolidation in Irrigated Areas and Law Number 5403 on Soil Conservation and Land Use. In this article, opening highways, railways, and waterways to public in Türkiye using the implementation of development plans is discussed. For the real estate coinciding with the route of public investments, if land and land lots are arranged in accordance with the Article 18 of the Development Law Number 3194, state withholding up to 45% may be imposed. The objective function in the state withholding can be stated as f= costmin= f(a,b). Land acquisition increases as the ratio of state withholding increases, resulting in the minimization of the expropriation costs. Public projects such as highway can be opened to public free of charge with development plan implementation in improvement areas and with land consolidation in rural areas having no development plan.

Application of multiplanar reconstruction and 3D printing in anterior cruciate ligament revision.

Anterior cruciate ligament injury is the most common type of knee joint ligament injury. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has a high failure rate, with bone tunnel abnormalities as the most significant factor in these failures. Digital orthopedic technology can effectively develop implementation plans for the revision, thus increasing the success rate. This study aims to develop a surgical plan for anterior cruciate ligament revision by employing multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) for measuring bone tunnel position and diameter, and simulating bone tunnel creation via 3D printing preoperatively. A total of 12 patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament revision at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between 2014 and 2021 were retrospectively studied. The data included patient demographics, preoperative formulated knee joint 3D printing models, and preoperative knee CT scans. The study measured the bone tunnel's diameter and position to guide the establishment of revision bone tunnels during surgery, reassessed the postoperative bone tunnels, and evaluated knee joint functional scores [including International Knee Documentation Committee Knee Evaluation Form (IKDC) score, Lysholm score, and Tegner exercise level score]. Preoperative measurements revealed suboptimal femoral tunnels positions in 4 patients and tibial tunnels positions in 2 patients. MPR and 3D printing technology were used to guide the establishment of a new bone canal during surgery, and postoperative measurements were satisfactory for all patients. Preoperative measurements demonstrated the interclass correlation coefficient for femoral tunnels and tibial tunnels diameters were 0.843 (P<0.05) and 0.889 (P<0.001), respectively. Meanwhile, the intraclass correlation coefficient were 0.811 (P<0.05) and 0.784 (P<0.05), respectively. The intraoperative diameter of femoral and tibial tunnels showed excellent correlation with postoperative CT measurements, with intraclass correlation coefficient values of 0.995 (P<0.001) and 0.987 (P<0.001), respectively. All bone tunnel positions were within the normal range. At the final follow-up, knee joint function scores in all 12 patients improved significantly compared to pre-surgery (P<0.001), and the reoperation rate was zero. MPR and 3D printing technology can accurately measure the parameters of reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament bone tunnels. Personalized revision plans for patients with reconstruction failure enhances the success rate of revision surgery and improves patient prognosis.

Implementation of Infrastructure Development Planning in Deli Serdang Regency

This research aims to identify the implementation of development planning and explain the impact of development planning in 5 (five) villages in Deli Serdang Regency in terms of infrastructure, including road construction and physical improvements. Additionally, this research also aims to analyze the factors hindering the implementation of development planning, explore the root causes of issues, and present recommendations for improvement. This study is analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach, with 11 (eleven) individuals selected as research samples, and data collected through in-depth interviews, documentation, and field observations. Furthermore, data is analyzed through the processes of reduction, presentation, and verification to ensure the validity and reliability of the research results. The research findings show that, in general, the implementation of regional development planning still has several complex and interconnected shortcomings. The main factors that can lead to failures in the implementation of development planning results include budgetary constraints, often limited resources of the community, and inadequate organizational or regional apparatus resources in carrying out their tasks. Additionally, changes in proposed activities often become a cause of inconsistency between planning and implementation. Not only that, there are additional factors that complicate the situation, such as the role of the government and regional apparatus as formulators of public policies that significantly impact the success of the implementation of development planning. The government's and regional apparatus' role in directing policies can create dynamics that influence the final results of implementation.

DIGITAL TWIN NEIGHBORHOODS FOR PRECISION POPULATION HEALTH: INITIAL RESULTS OF COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS

Abstract Neighborhood socioeconomic inequality leads to lower use of preventive services, increased incidence and severity of disease, reduced quality of life, and higher mortality across multiple age groups. To accelerate discovery and prioritize population health strategies, we introduced Digital Twin Neighborhoods (DTNs): digital replicas of real communities that include biological, social, and geographic data and algorithms. We implemented a series of community engagement studio sessions (CES) that aim to elicit and clarify community members’ preferences and concerns about DTNs in order to most inclusively and ethically align DTN investigators’ research with community priorities. More than 30 participants have attended quarterly sessions. At CES sessions, researchers summarize the DTN framework and then engage with questions from (i) community experts and (ii) scientific experts, and (iii) open dialogue to guide project decision-making. To date, salient community experts’ concerns include: potential harms of DTNs for real-life communities; data privacy; selection of spatial indicators; and consequences for vulnerable populations. Suggestions for making DTN work more community-resonant have included: data transparency directly with residents; reconciling data definitions with local meanings of health; recognizing biases in electronic health records; and conducting shared activities within neighborhoods. CES sessions revealed foci for future DTN analyses including: how social isolation and togetherness influence health; identification of spatially defined targets for remediating structural racism; analysis of health-promoting assets’ (e.g., green space, churches) differential benefits; and examining how resilience creates practical advantages amidst difficult socioenvironmental circumstances. Conversing with community members, we are now developing implementation plans for each of these areas.

The approach to developing Ireland’s first national health protection strategy and lessons learnt

Abstract Health protection is recognised as an essential public health function by the World Health Organization. It includes the prevention and control of infectious disease, environmental and radiation risks, and the emergency response to major incidents. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of strengthening this function worldwide. To address this as a public health priority in Ireland, between January and October 2022 the first national first Health Protection Strategy (2022-2027) for the Health Service Executive (HSE) was developed. This was led by the then National Clinical Director for Health Protection supported by a Project Working Group (PWG), with governance and oversight from a multi-disciplinary Steering Committee (SC). Key steps in strategy formation included detailed stakeholder analysis, exploration of the policy context for the strategy, and development of a consultation plan with guidance of an external facilitator. Two SC consultation workshops were held (March and June 2022). Workshop 1 focused on defining strategic vision, aim, and objectives. Workshop 2 verified objectives and identified enablers. A subsequent e-consultation invited feedback from wider stakeholders (July 2022). The strategy, published 13th October 2022, outlines 10 strategic objectives and 11 associated enablers. Progression of strategy implementation will require further stakeholder engagement, development of implementation plans, and establishment of a monitoring and evaluation framework, including annual review of implementation. Strengths of the strategy development approach included multidisciplinary SC input and oversight, review of the national and international policy context, detailed stakeholder analysis and engagement, and the comprehensive consultation plan developed with external facilitator input. Lessons from our experience can support colleagues internationally to strategically set out their priorities for health protection beyond COVID-19. Key messages • The development of the first HSE Health Protection Strategy 2022-2027 is a critical step to ensure a clear framework for the delivery of national health protection functions going forward. • As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, public health bodies should strategically set out priorities for health protection beyond COVID-19 – lessons from our experience in doing so can inform this work.
