Experiment Modelling of Automated Verification Control on Environmental Conditions During Crop Storage

The study introduces a preliminary approach to enhance the supervision of food processing operators. Specifically, it showcases a digital model of an online compliance validation system with environmental conditions designed for food processing and preservation items that are sensitive to climate factors. The technology demonstration involves four fundamental stages carried out in a complete experimental cycle, where intelligent sensors gather and transmit data through a low-power wireless wide-area network from a farm specializing in sunflower seed storage. Subsequently, six consecutive scripts are executed, five of which are coded in Python. The integration of distributed data technology brings objectivity to the process of securely storing environmental parameters and objectively verifying their compliance with recommended hygienic, bio certification standards. As a result, monitoring the food production process becomes more publicly accessible and with higher rates of objectivity in decisions, enabling prospective buyers and certification agencies to assess the quality of food products with great precision. Therefore, the suggested digital model has the potential to ensure the utmost transparency in the food processing sector.

PRO-P: evaluating the effect of electronic patient-reported outcome measures monitoring compared with standard care in prostate cancer patients undergoing surgery-study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

With over 65,000 new cases per year in Germany, prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer in men in Germany. Localized PC is often treated by radical prostatectomy and has a very good prognosis. Postoperative quality of life (QoL) is significantly influenced by the side effects of surgery. One possible approach to improve QoL is postoperative symptom monitoring using ePROMs (electronic patient-reported outcome measures) to accurately identify any need for support. The PRO-P ("Influence of ePROMS in surgical therapy of PC on the postoperative course") study is a randomized controlled trial employing 1:1 randomization at 6weeks postoperatively, involving 260 patients with incontinence (≥ 1 pad/day) at six participating centers. Recruitment is planned for 1year with subsequent 1-year follow-up. PRO-monitoring using domains of EPIC-26, psychological burden, and QoL are assessed 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 52weeks postoperatively. Exceeding predefined PRO-score cutoffs triggers an alert at the center, prompting patient contact, medical consultation, and potential interventions. The primary endpoint is urinary continence. Secondary endpoints refer to EPIC-26 domains, psychological distress, and QoL. Aspects of feasibility, effect, and implementation of the intervention will be investigated within the framework of a qualitative process evaluation. PRO-P investigates the effect on postoperative symptom monitoring of a structured follow-up using ePROMs in the first year after prostatectomy. It is one of the first studies in cancer surgery investigating PRO-monitoring and its putative applicability to routine care. Patient experiences with intensified monitoring of postoperative symptoms and reflective counseling will be examined in order to improve primarily urinary continence, and secondly other burdens of physical and psychological symptoms, quality-of-life, and patient competence. The potential applicability of the intervention in clinical practice is facilitated by IT adaption to the certification standards of the German Cancer Society and the integration of the ePROMs survey via a joint patient portal. Positive outcomes could readily translate this complex intervention into routine clinical care. PRO-P might improve urinary incontinence and QoL in patients with radical prostatectomy through the structured use of ePROMs. ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05644821. Registered on 09 December 2022.

Overcoming Barriers to Healthcare Reform: A Call to Action.

The success of healthcare reform hinges on policymaker, regulator, and administrator actions that shape policies at various levels. These policies can either facilitate or hinder the practice of healthcare professionals and collaborative work environments. It is imperative for all healthcare professionals to fully utilize their education and certification, as fostering an equitable workplace culture is vital for retaining staff and improving access to care. Using nurse practitioners (NPs) as an exemplar, this article aims to specify systemic barriers to healthcare reform and call for policymakers, regulators, and clinical agency administrators to enact change. Barriers to NP practice include restrictive oversight by external stakeholders, financial incentives for indirect billing, and hierarchical constraints that limit NP contributions to the healthcare system. The growing healthcare provider shortage disproportionately impacts primary care and rural settings. NPs are increasingly more likely to fill these roles than medical doctors and have documented positive patient health outcomes. Removing systemic obstacles for NP practice increases access to care. Nursing-the largest healthcare workforce with diverse roles-operates under complex oversight from multiple organizations for licensure, accreditation, certification, and education. The recent trend of external stakeholders influencing and requiring additional oversight has created barriers to nursing practice. Despite national education, accreditation, and certification standards, nursing licensure and practice are increasingly negotiated with external stakeholders and supervised at the state and institutional levels. Supporting all healthcare professionals to practice according to their education and certification can advance healthcare reform, address workforce shortages, increase access to care, and improve health.

Examining the effect of forest certification on timber harvest best management practice implementation

ABSTRACT Forest certification programs are voluntary initiatives emphasizing sustainable forestry and harvest practices. Compliance with certification standards is enforced through third-party audits. One requirement of most forest certification systems is the use of best management practices during harvesting activities. These practices are designed to mitigate potential negative outcomes of forest management and timber harvesting activities. Best management practice implementation has been found to have a variety of positive outcomes on water quality and other resources. However, information relating forest certification to implementation of best management practices and environmental outcomes on certified versus noncertified lands is scant. Here, we examine the role of third-party certification as it contributes to enhanced forest stewardship via implementation of voluntary best management practices. Our study adds to the limited body of research comparing sustainability practices and outcomes on certified vs. noncertified lands. In alignment with previous research on the topic, our study suggests that adherence to best management practices is better on certified versus noncertified forests. Our findings also suggest that for large public agency ownerships, organizationally driven factors beyond forest certification (e.g. institutional policy and trained staff) influence the use of best management practices during timber harvests.

Factors impacting curricula in maritime simulator-based education

AbstractThe International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) provides a foundational framework for maritime education and training (MET). However, variations in its interpretation across different nations and institutions lead to diverse teaching practices and strategies. This diversity stems from differences in national regulations, resources, cultures, and the perspectives of institutions and instructors. This study introduces a concept map to scaffold the key concepts influencing maritime simulator-based education. By examining both the education system and student factors, the concept map offers insights into these various factors through observations from simulator-based teaching sessions and discussions with maritime educators and students. This tool can help identify differences and highlight good practices. It is a valuable resource for stakeholders, promoting a novel approach to developing an effective, comprehensive, coherent maritime simulator-based education.

MVD and LWC prediction in icing environment based on genetic algorithm optimized neural network

Mean volumetric diameter (MVD) and liquid water content (LWC) are two important meteorological parameters that affect aircraft icing, but they are difficult to measure accurately in practice. If these two parameters can be obtained in real time and accurately, it can provide some guidance for ice accumulation prediction and the establishment of aircraft airworthiness certification standards. This paper proposes a prediction model for icing meteorological parameters based on genetic algorithm optimized neural network. With ice thickness and icing rate of different measurement point combinations, ambient temperature, flight speed and wing angle of attack as input parameters, and icing meteorological parameters MVD and LWC as output parameters, the genetic algorithm optimized icing meteorological parameter prediction model is constructed, and the prediction model is used to predict the icing meteorological parameters of the numerical calculation test group data and the icing wind tunnel experimental data. The results show that the prediction model based on genetic algorithm optimized Elman neural network predicts the icing meteorological parameters of the test group within the relative error of the test group 10%, and the relative error of the experimental data is within the relative error of the experimental data 20%. This method has certain feasibility.

Digital sustainability tracing in smallholder context: Ex-ante insights from the Peruvian cocoa supply chain

Global demand for sustainable agri-food products creates opportunities for smallholder farmers. But on-farm verification of sustainable practices is costly, making third-party certification inaccessible to many poor farmers. Digital technologies for tracing agri-food products from farm to fork could help: novel traceability systems, based on blockchain technology, can make data about on-farm practices transparently available to downstream stakeholders, enabling them to verify sustainability claims without external audits. There is limited understanding, however, of how such digital tracing systems fit local needs and capacities in smallholder contexts. Through a grounded theory approach, we explore the potential of digital traceability for sustainability monitoring in a case study in the Ucayali region of Peru. Based on interviews with local cocoa sector stakeholders, we identify two major challenges: first, setting up digital traceability systems requires investments that do not seem justified by corresponding increases in income. And second, relying on farmer-supplied data creates the risk of inaccurate information due to insufficient capacity as well as incentives for providing distorted data. Our findings suggest that strong cooperation along the supply chain is needed to ensure adequate return on farmer-side costs and investments. Focusing on sustainability metrics at the community level, in addition to the farm level, may be promising, as these metrics can be reliably collected by external stakeholders and add value beyond existing third-party certification standards. Our case study provides recommendations for local policy makers and supply chain stakeholders to develop inclusive digital sustainability tracing systems with smallholder farmers.

Abstract Disclosure: K.N. Nissen: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. N. Parker: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. P. Samantha: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. J.M. Rhea-McManus: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. V. Shalhoub: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. J. Freeman: Employee; Self; Siemens Healthineers. Background: The Atellica® IM and ADVIA Centaur® Testosterone II (TSTII) assay is enrolled in the CDC Hormone Standardization (CDC HoST) Certification Program, which is traceable to the primary testosterone Standard National Measurement Institute (NMI) M914. Certification is a yearlong process of 40 blinded samples from the CDC, 10 to be tested each quarter. If 4 consecutive quarters meet the bias acceptance criteria of ± 6.4%, CDC certification is achieved. The TSTII assay is standardized using internal standards made from United States Pharmacopea (USP)-grade testosterone. Standards are traceable to ID-LC-MS/MS by method comparison using CDC samples; ID-LC-MS/MS is traceable to the primary testosterone standard NMI M914. Methods: Initially, to standardize the assay, approximately 120 samples were obtained from CDC with CDC HoST ID-LC-MS dose values to value assign master curve standards. Multiple ADVIA Centaur TSTII reagent lots were tested with the CDC patient samples. Internal master curve standards were assayed as unknowns and dose values assigned using the RLU (system generated units–Relative Light Units) to CDC ID-LC-MS dose relationship. From 2019 to 2023, after standard value assignment, at least 179 individual patient samples from the CDC with blinded amounts of testosterone have been tested across all platforms. Each quarter, 10 blinded samples were tested in duplicate over 2 days. Results were analyzed by the CDC according to CLSI EP9-A2 for bias. Results: Correlation between the CDC assigned values and the Atellica IM, ADVIA Centaur, and ADVIA Centaur CP TSTII assay results was strong across all quarterly blind trials from 2019 to 2023 combined—Atellica IM intercept = +0.5 ng/dL, slope = 1.03, r = 0.990, n = 180, Bland Altman mean bias was 4.55%; ADVIA Centaur intercept = +0.3 ng/dL, slope = 1.04, r = 0.993, n = 179, mean bias was -0.27%; ADVIA Centaur CP intercept = +0.9 ng/dL, slope = 1.07, r = 0.993, n = 180, mean bias was 1.26%. The TSTII assay bias on all systems was consistently <6.4%. This enabled the TSTII assays to be CDC certified for a fourth consecutive year. Conclusions: The TSTII assay has consistently achieved CDC certification from 2019 to 2023. Siemens Healthineers is the only testosterone immunoassay manufacturer to be currently certified and has achieved certification for four consecutive years. Presentation: 6/1/2024

HACCP operation in two Latin American meat packers: Case study

The hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) system is a protocol aimed to guarantee food safety, especially in companies dedicated to meat processing. Companies in food international trade are subjected to intense inspection and verification processes, and international standard certifications have become a key factor in global trade. The purpose of this study was a comparative analysis of HACCP certification in the Mexican and Chilean meat packers that send meat to international markets by a field inspection of each to identify opportunities for improvement. International trade standards along with packers’ expectations and needs to be fulfilled to attain a place in world markets were bases for this study. Guidelines for field inspection came from the HACCP protocol. Field data were derived from 15 indicators — five intrinsic to the HACCP plan and ten external. The Chilean packer was superior to the Mexican packer in terms of many indicators. Thus, the first one had a chance for a better position in international markets than the latter. It was concluded that the HACCP audit is an excellent tool to measure the suitability of meat packers in achieving a place as a supplier and remaining in the international food trade.

A-065 The CDC HoSt Certification Requirements Have Been Met for More Than Four Years by the Atellica IM, ADVIA Centaur Testosterone II and Dimension Vista LOCI Total Testosterone Immunoassays

Abstract Background The CDC Hormone Standardization (CDC HoST) Certification Program, is traceable to the primary testosterone Standard National Measurement Institute (NMI) M914. The Atellica® IM, ADVIA Centaur® Testosterone II (TSTII) and Dimension Vista® LOCI Total Testosterone (TTST) assays are enrolled in the program. Certification is a yearlong process of 40 blinded samples from the CDC, 10 for testing each quarter. If 4 consecutive quarters meet bias acceptance criteria of ± 6.4%, CDC certification is achieved. Methods Initially, to standardize the assay approximately 120 samples were obtained from CDC with CDC HoST ID-LC-MS dose values to value assign master curve standards. Multiple ADVIA Centaur TSTII reagent lots were tested with CDC patient samples. Internal master curve standards were assayed as unknowns and dose values assigned using the RLU (system generated units-Relative Light Units) to CDC ID-LC-MS dose relationship. For TSTII (2019- 2023), after standard value assignment, at least 179 CDC blinded samples were tested across all platforms. Each quarter, 10 blinded samples were tested in duplicate over 2 days. Similar procedures were followed for TTST. Results were analyzed by the CDC. Results Correlation between the CDC assigned values and Atellica IM, ADVIA Centaur, and ADVIA Centaur CP TSTII assay results was strong across all quarters from 2019 to 2023 combined. TTST results were strong for 2023. Mean bias between TSTII and TTST results and CDC reference values was consistently <6.4%. This enabled the TSTII assays to be CDC certified for a fourth consecutive year, and TTST for 2023. The table presents TSTII (2019-2023) and TTST (2014-2023) results. Conclusions The TSTII assay consistently achieved CDC certification from 2019 to 2023, while the TTST assay was initially certified in 2014. Siemens Healthineers is the only testosterone immunoassay manufacturer to be currently certified, the TSTII assay has achieved certification for four consecutive years.

The value of international standards certification: Evidence on export and firm performance from a security enforcement on borders

Globally, economic growth is promoted through regional economic integration, and governments actively try to improve the security and efficiency of international trade and border management by optimizing the conditions for international trade. The World Trade Organization (WTO) introduced the Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) certification system to improve the efficiency of customs clearance and to ensure the security of the global supply chain. Using a sample of Taiwanese-listed firms that attained AEO certification from 2009 to 2018, this study investigates the influence of AEO certification on their export sales and corporate performance. The empirical results show that AEO-certified firms increase their ratio of export sales and the scope of export destination regions. However, AEO-certified firms can not improve their operating and market performance significantly, except for low-performance firms in the accreditation year. This study also uses the two-stage least square regressions (2SLS) method and the propensity score matching method to conduct the regression analysis. The regression results are consistent with the main findings. The findings can be used for reference by firms seeking to expand international trade and by governments to promote the country’s international trading.

Perspectives of stakeholders on onboard training: A thematic analysis of qualitative interviews

ABSTRACT The training and education of seafarers have evolved significantly with the establishment of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the adoption of International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW). This paper explores maritime industry key stakeholders’ perspectives on onboard training (OBT) focusing on its benefits, curriculum, and challenges. The thematic analysis of the opinions of representatives of key stakeholders highlighted the critical role of OBT in providing real-world experience, applying theoretical knowledge in practice, and gaining cultural insights essential for maritime cadets’ professional growth. Some obstacles related to financial constraints of shipping companies, common ship activities, living conditions on board, unexpected weather conditions, regulatory inconsistencies, and characteristics of curriculum, such as trainers’ competencies, number of trainers on board, different implementation of OBT by different companies were revealed. The respondents agreed that the traditional 12-month OBT period is necessary, however proper integration of technological advancements in achieving competences with harmonized international regulations, updated curriculum, and enhanced stakeholder collaboration can be helpful to reduce the duration of OBT. Further research should identify competences to be developed through integration of technologies including simulator training.

Breaking Barriers and Navigating the Future of Emergency Care: The Role of the Emergency Nurse Practitioner.

Over the past two decades, the emergency nurse practitioner (ENP) role has significantly enhanced emergency care in the United States. With the increasing complexity of emergency care, ENPs have expanded into nontraditional settings, necessitating regulatory updates to maintain patient safety. The Consensus Model for Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Regulation has influenced ENP practice, yet consistent regulatory recognition is still needed due to the marked evolution in ENP practice. Despite collaborative efforts to prepare the ENP workforce and ensure competency through standardized education, certification, and licensure, recent unethical publications and skewed statistics have threatened the specialty's progress. Addressing these challenges is crucial for advancing the ENP role and ensuring high-quality emergency care delivery.
