Spare Parts Management Strategy of High-Speed Railway Running Department Based on Performance Prediction

Spare parts management is a critical aspect of high-speed train health management, playing a vital role in maximizing in-service time and minimizing maintenance costs. However, traditional spare parts management methods, which rely solely on historical experience and suggest spare parts quantities or ratios in equipment manuals, often lack practicality and fail to meet real-world demands. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a performance prediction-based spare parts management strategy for high-speed trains. The strategy comprises three main components. First, a performance degradation model is developed using performance evaluation results to define a performance degradation envelope. Next, the required quantity or ratio of spare parts for multiple devices in different performance states is determined using the expected performance score method. Finally, the timing of spare parts orders is scientifically optimized by accounting for production and transportation lead times. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, we conducted experiments using the spare parts management of a specific high-speed train running gear as a case study and compared it with existing spare parts management methods.

The importance of healthcare monitoring systems

Abstract Issue Healthcare evaluation is an important tool of governance in the health sector that reinforces its key components: evidence-based care, effectiveness, programme standards, performance monitoring, quality improvement, risk and incident management and patient-centered care. One of the evaluation systems used by the Veneto Region (north italian region of about 4.8 million inhabitants) consists of the National Outcomes Programme (PNE) developed by the Italian National Agency for Regional Healthcare Services (AGENAS) on behalf of the Health Ministry. Description The PNE is an instrument used to measure, analyze, evaluate and monitor clinical and welfare assistance performances of Italian healthcare facilities. The Veneto Region, in particular, utilizes a regional epidemiologic service to periodically monitor 21 performance indicators based on “treemap” methodology. These indicators are used to assess processes, outcomes and volumes. The data used to monitor these practices derive from the hospital discharge documentation (SDO) and tax registry information system. The aim of this monitoring system is to track any critical situation that is not in alignment with national guidelines and to improve the efficacy, efficiency, appropriateness and safety within the healthcare system. Results In the Veneto region, over the course of nearly 10 years, this method of management has led to the development of various training courses that guide clinicians to correctly document and code different diagnosis and treatments. The treemap process of analysis has also made possible various clinical audits that have provided significant policy changes regarding risk and overall health management. Lessons Having a constant view of healthcare performance has proven to be helpful not only to identify some common gaps in care given from different facilities on a national level, but also guides different regions to develop specific strategies that lead to quality improvement. Key messages • Data on healthcare quality can be used as comparative information and for quality improvement. • Continuous monitoring of specific performance indicators can help identify difficulties in healthcare facilities and create strategies for long term solutions.

The impact of early use of echocardiography performed by non-cardiologist in patients with chest pain - the ENDEMIC study

Abstract Background Echocardiography is well-established method in management of chest pain at Emergency department (ED). However, evidence on the optimal scope of the examination and the education of the examiner is scarce. Early point of care echocardiography (POCE) by ED physician can speed up the diagnostic process compared to echocardiography performed by dedicated specialist, at the cost of a higher risk of misdiagnosis. Purpose Primary objective was to assess the impact of POCE on length of stay on emergency department (ED). Secondary objectives were to evaluate the impact of POCE on time to revascularization and on the accuracy of the diagnosis at the initial examination. Methods ENDEMIC study is a prospective, randomised, open-label, single centre study. Prior to enrolment, physicians without any previous experiences with POCE were educated according to BSE standard level 1. Patients examined for chest pain of uncertain etiology were enrolled into the study and randomised in even-odd manner for POCE within 90 minutes or for usual management. In all patients the length of ED stay, time to coronary angiography and accuracy of working diagnosis. Length of ED stay was defined as time form first contact of the patient with ED to the moment when the patient physically leaved the ward. Time to revascularization was retrieved from patient´s medical records and confirmed by telephonic visit. A working diagnosis was considered accurate if it shared both pathophysiological mechanism and diagnostic criteria with the final diagnosis. All POCE examinations were recorded and revised by certified echocardiography specialist for errors. Results The study was early terminated after enrolment of 150 patients, because main objectives were met. The use of POCE resulted in a significant shortening of both time of decision (138.0 [68.5−230.5] min vs. 252.0 [165.5−304.0], p=0.000004) and length of ED stay (209.0 [143.5−260.0] min vs. 271.0 [206.5−336.0], p=0.0002. Moreover, in patients indicated for further follow-up, utilisation of POCE resulted in better concordance of working and final diagnosis: 91,6 % vs. 50 %; RR = 1.83 (1.104-2.565); p = 0.0063. Benefits of POCE were most pronounced in patients requiring hospitalization. Conclusion The study showed that echocardiography performed by sufficiently educated physician in patients with acute chest pain results in significant shortening of ED stay along with improved diagnostic accuracy.

Long-term facial nerve outcome in surgically treated petrous bone cholesteatoma patients.

The term petrous bone cholesteatoma (PBC) represents a slow-growing epidermal lesion arising from the petrous part of the temporal bone. It is a rare incidence accounting for only 4-9% of all petrous bone lesions. PBC represents a real surgical challenge due to its complex relationship with critical neurovascular structures. To demonstrate our experience in using various options of facial nerve (FN) management during surgical treatment of PBC and analyze the long-term facial function outcomes. Retrospective medical record review in a quaternary skull-base center. Medical records of 298 PBC cases operated between the years 1983 and 2024 were thoroughly evaluated. Sanna's classification scheme was used to classify cases into the appropriate class and the House-Brackmann (HB) grading system of the FN was used to assess the facial function pre- and postoperatively. A total of 298 PBC cases were surgically treated at our center. Males constitute 68% (n = 203) of total operated PBC patients while the rest 32% (95) were females, making the male-to-female ratio 2.2:1. The age in this series ranged from 9 to 85. According to updated Sanna's PBC classification, 44% were supralabyrinthine, 33% were massive, 9% were infralabyrinthine-apical, 8% were infralabyrinthine, and 5% were apical. On preoperative FN function examination, 45% (n = 133) of patients had various degrees of paresis and complete paralysis whereas 55% (n = 165) had normal FN function. The commonest degree of paresis observed was HB-III (18.5%) followed by HB-IV (5.7%). A total of 40(13.4%) patients, however, had complete facial paralysis at the initial presentation. The facial function was compromised more frequently in supralabyrinthine and massive PBCs. Among the total patients who had an abnormal facial function at presentation, 52% had paresis/paralysis for less than a year whereas 48% had FN paresis/paralysis for greater than one year. The most commonly used surgical approaches at our center were transotic (TO), modified transcochlear type A (MTCA) with rerouting of the FN, and translabyrinthine (TLAB) with external auditory canal (EAC) closure. Intraoperatively an intact fallopian canal was found only in 33% (n = 99) cases whereas the rest 67% (n = 199) had erosion of the fallopian canal either with intact (n = 24) or infiltrated FN (n = 175). The FN was maintained in the bony fallopian canal in 35% (n = 104) cases. An active form of FN management, however, was required in 65% (n = 194) of cases either intraoperatively or as a second-stage procedure. Factors affecting postoperative FN function include age, preoperative FN function (HB), duration of paralysis, class of PBC, surgical approach, and method of active FN management. PBCs represent diagnostically and surgically challenging lesions of temporal bone which are usually frustrating to the treating surgeon. Preoperative anatomic classification of the lesion enables the physician to choose the appropriate surgical approach. Sanna's classification is the most widely accepted system used to classify PBC. This classification is based on the relation of the lesion to the labyrinthine block. Active FN management, including rerouting, end-to-end anastomosis, cable nerve grafting, and masseteric-to-FN anastomosis routinely come into play in the surgical management of PBCs, and the postoperative FN results after such interventions can be satisfactory in most cases.

Anti-obesity treatment preferences of healthcare providers and people living with obesity: A survey-based study.

A cross-sectional, online survey was conducted in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the United States (14 November-22 December 2022) to investigate preferences for anti-obesity medication (AOM) among people with obesity (PwO) and healthcare providers (HCPs). Eligibility: Adult PwO who self-defined their body type as overweight/obese, were trying to lose weight and had BMI ≥30.0 or 27.0-29.9 kg/m2 with ≥1 obesity-related complication; HCPs had to see ≥30 PwO in a typical month and be a decision-maker regarding their weight loss. The survey included 2500 PwO and 500 HCPs. Exercise (96%) and diet (90%) were the most common weight management methods; AOM use was low (8%). Key barriers to use of prescribed AOMs among PwO were not wanting to take AOM (34%), side effects concerns (33%), and not trusting AOM (26%). Most HCPs (79%) had prescribed/recommended AOMs. Efficacy was the most common reason for preferring one of the shown product profiles among PwO (60%) and HCPs (86%); improving cardiovascular risk was also important to 95% of HCPs when deciding which AOM to prescribe. AOM preference is largely driven by efficacy. Increasing knowledge could help to address barriers to AOM use and improve outcomes for PwO.

FEATURES OF THE MODERN HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The article examines different approaches to the essence of the concepts of «management», «health care management», etc., based on which the interpretation of the concept of «health care management» is proposed. Conceptualization of the content of the terms «management» and «administration» is of great importance for the development of the conceptual and categorical apparatus not only of the theory of management and science in general, but also of modern branch theories. The variety of approaches is caused by the conditions of functioning of modern management systems in the field of health care, which is caused by the continuation of the reformation of the management system of the industry, the addition of the legal framework, the search for sources of financing, personnel support, and the development of infrastructure in most modern states. The article analyzes the object and subject of health care management as mandatory components of the structure of the health care system. The content of the main functions and methods of management in the field of health care is revealed. The interrelationship of functions and methods depending on the level of management and the applied model of organization of the health care system is analyzed. It is emphasized that the presence of different types of health care models depends not only on the method of financing and management, but also on the conformity of this model to the cultural, economic and social characteristics of the nation and the state. It is indicated that modern states, which continue the process of reforming the health care sector, can use the best practices of each of the presented models to create an effective and accessible system of medical care, capable of responding to modern challenges, with an effective management system. It has been established that the management system of the health care sector should be based on a number of scientific approaches that will allow taking into account all factors of the internal and external environment. It has been proven that the need to form an optimal management system is an important element of transformational processes in the field of health care. Today, the field of health care should be aimed at developing the capacity of health care institutions to meet the established quality standards, offer a favorable environment for the activities of medical workers, and meet the existing needs of citizens.

Factors Affecting the Management of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and Corresponding Recommendations

Abstract: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)play a crucial role in economic development. Their management methods and internal strategic decisions not only affect their own development but also influence the establishment of internal management systems within related industries. Therefore, identifying the factors that influence changes in business management methods is of paramount importance for SMEs. Additionally, due to the smaller size and scale of SMEs, they are easily affected by changes in various management factors. To mitigate risks and enhance development, SMEs must assess both individual and combined impacts of various factors. This article employs a literature review to examine SMEs comprehensively. It summarizes and analyzes existing research, identifies key management factors, and offers targeted recommendations. The research results show that human resource management, financial management, and technology management have important effects on the management methods of SMEs. All three aspects originate from the enterprise itself and continuously affect enterprise development from different angles. Therefore, this article also proposes corresponding recommendations for SMEs concerning these three aspects, in order to continuously improve enterprise management methods.
