Effect Of Preventive Home Visits By A Nurse On The Outcomes Of Frail Elderly People In The Community: A Randomized Controlled Trial, Dawn M. Dalby, John W. Sellors, Fred D. Fraser, Catherine Fraser, Cornelia Van Ineveld, Michelle Howard

Kinesiology and Physical Education Faculty Publications

Background: Timely recognition and prevention of health problems among elderly people have been shown to improve their health. In this randomized controlled trial the authors examined the impact of preventive home visits by a nurse compared with usual care on the outcomes of frail elderly people living in the community. Methods: A screening questionnaire identified eligible participants (those aged 70 years or more at risk of sudden deterioration in health). Those randomly assigned to the visiting nurse group were assessed and followed up in their homes for 14 months. The primary outcome measure was the combined rate of deaths and …

Elements Of Success In Telemedicine Programs: Advice From Telemedicine Leaders, Mary Moore Phd Jan 2000

Elements Of Success In Telemedicine Programs: Advice From Telemedicine Leaders, Mary Moore Phd

Faculty Research, Publications, and Presentations

Telemedicine projects in the past have demonstrated the potential of telecommunication services to improve healthcare and reduce costs by providing patient consultations and continuing education to remote healthcare practitioners. With the lowered costs of related technologies and increased network capabilities it is likely that telemedicine could transform health care, even for non-isolate, general populations.

It is difficult, however, to identify information on elements affecting the success of past telemedicine projects. This may be because information on these projects is either unpublished, or is hidden in obscure government reports (Brown, 1982). If telemedicine services are to be routinely provided, it is …

Escherichia Coli Pathogen O157:H7 Does Not Survive Longer In Soil Than A Nonpathogenic Fecal Coliform, D. N. Mubiru, Mark S. Coyne, John H. Grove Jan 2000

Escherichia Coli Pathogen O157:H7 Does Not Survive Longer In Soil Than A Nonpathogenic Fecal Coliform, D. N. Mubiru, Mark S. Coyne, John H. Grove

Agronomy Notes

Survival rates for individual types of fecal organisms are quite different. Although some pathogens may persist as long as 5 years in soil, most fecal pathogens from human and animal waste usually die very quickly. Two to three months is sufficient in most cases to reduce pathogens to negligible numbers once they have been excreted or land-applied in animal wastes.

It is expensive and time- consuming to test for individual pathogens. Consequently, nonpathogenic fecal indicator bacteria, which are easily and inexpensively detected, are often used to study pathogen survival in soil and water. Current methods for rapidly detecting fecal indicator …

Aggressive Personality: When Does It Develop And Why?, Rita Cantrell Schellenberg Jan 2000

Aggressive Personality: When Does It Develop And Why?, Rita Cantrell Schellenberg

Faculty Publications and Presentations

In this review, three primary agents of social learning (parent-child interaction, peer interaction and television) are examined in relation to the development of aggressive personality during the formative years (infancy, early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence). Research has revealed all three agents as influential in the development of aggression, with the majority of research emphasizing middle childhood as a critical period for peer relationships. This paper suggests that the success or failure of peer relationships during middle childhood is a direct reflection of the social learning that took place during parent-infant and early childhood interactions. Hence, each stage, infancy through …

Think Globally, Act Locally: The Role Of State And Local Ballot Initiatives In International Environmental Law, K.K. Duvivier Jan 2000

Think Globally, Act Locally: The Role Of State And Local Ballot Initiatives In International Environmental Law, K.K. Duvivier

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

Ballot initiatives are generally seen as a local phenomenon, and consequently have rarely been examined from an international perspective. Thus, the subcategory of international environmental initiatives is small. However, in the last thirty years, the use of ballot initiatives has increased in the United States. 17 With the expanding globalization of society, more and more ballot initiatives may have an impact on international environmental issues. Some of these international environmental ballot initiatives will pass and may become enforceable laws. Others may be invalidated if they are preempted, either by federal laws or by the federal government's control over the field …


Managing Data Quality In The Health Care Industry: Some Critical Issues, Binshan Lin, Houn-Gee Chan Jan 2000

Managing Data Quality In The Health Care Industry: Some Critical Issues, Binshan Lin, Houn-Gee Chan

Journal of International Information Management

Data quality analysis in health care is a large and ongoing problem. Because the scope oj health care information systems is extremely broad and because most such systems have either a direct or indirect impact on the provision of health care, their quality is a topic of critical importance for information management professionals. Of vital concern is the data flow from the point of patient service delivery to an end point of decision support and analysis of the data derived from the encounter. The historical use of these data, their current uses and how industry dynamics have created a need …


Policing Efficacy: Socioeconomic Destiny Or Effective Information Analysis, Brian D. Lynch Jan 2000

Policing Efficacy: Socioeconomic Destiny Or Effective Information Analysis, Brian D. Lynch

Journal of International Information Management

Tlie efficacy of new policing techniques has called in to question a long held canon of criminologists: that vast social forces (such as poverty, racism and demographics) beyond police control are the primary determinants of criminal activity. A new approach to policing called COMSTAT (computerized analysis of crime statistics) has resulted in a significant reduction in criminal activity within the cities that have adopted it according to FBI Uniform Crime Report data. These results were achieved by quickly identifying and targeting minor social disorders crimes (such as graffiti, loitering, and vandalism) before they lead to major social disorders (such as …


The Influence Of Dss Types, Decision Style, And Environment On Individual Decision Making, Jagannathan V. Iyengar Jan 2000

The Influence Of Dss Types, Decision Style, And Environment On Individual Decision Making, Jagannathan V. Iyengar

Journal of International Information Management

Cognitive style, measured by Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, was used to categorize decision makers. Information source in the form of different DSS types was provided to help the decision makers make more effective decisions. The research attempted to investigate systematically the effects of cognitive style and DSS usage on the decision maker's perception of risk in the context of capital expansion projects. The research encompassed analysis of behavior under conditions of uncertainty for two values of the cognitive dimension, sensing-intuition (S-N), and use of two types of information sources, data-bases DSS (DBDSS) and model based DSS (MBDSS). The behavior was studied …
