Abstract

Sustainable building design has gained global significance as a strategy to address environmental challenges and promote healthier living spaces. This concept is particularly relevant in Saudi Arabia, where there is a growing emphasis on integrating sustainable practices into the design and operation of buildings, especially in educational settings. Amidst the global push for sustainability in workplaces, this study's core lies in assessing and comparing the satisfaction levels with the indoor environmental quality (IEQ) of a Saudi Arabian higher education building against those in international green buildings, considering factors that comprise thermal comfort, air quality, lighting, acoustic quality, office arrangement, furnishings, cleanliness, and maintenance. Employing the Center for the Built Environment (CBE) IEQ survey tool, a comprehensive study was conducted among the building's occupants. A literature review and benchmarking studies complemented this to gather data on international green buildings. This study aims to assess and compare the satisfaction levels with the IEQ of a Saudi Arabian higher education building against international green buildings. The comparative analysis aims to expose the commonalities and differences in satisfaction levels, exploring how various factors influence overall satisfaction with the IEQ. The research found that there is overall satisfaction with the IEQ parameters of the building under investigation, except with two parameters: acoustics and thermal comfort. The building is generally in alignment with the IEQ of international buildings. This research is presumed to contribute significantly to sustainability initiatives in educational buildings, fostering a healthier and more sustainable workplace environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

8. How Teachers Perceive Educational Programs in Juvenile Justice Facilities: Case Study

Author

Mitchell, Connie Faye and Mitchell, Connie Faye

Abstract

The purpose of this case study was to understand teachers’ perspectives of educational programs in juvenile justice facilities. This information is valuable in assessing the needs of incarcerated juveniles and strengthening the educational programs provided to them. This case study utilized John Dewey’s social learning theory, which states that learning occurs through social interactions and hands-on approaches. This theory supports the case study of the interactions between the students and teachers while they are participating in academic and career and technology education (CATE) courses. The study sought to answer the following question: What are the teachers’ perceptions of online learning, core academic programs, the GED program, and the CATE program in a juvenile justice facility? To answer these questions, the perceptions of 12 teachers in the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice schools were discussed. The data sources were teacher interviews, focus groups and participant letters The results showed positive teacher perceptions of academic programs in juvenile justice facilities.

Abstract

The tracking of elective deliveries (ED) prior to 39 gestational weeks has become a mandatory requirement for all hospitals with [greater than or equal to]1,100 deliveries for accreditation by The Joint Commission (TJC); however, the feasibility and accuracy of monitoring efforts remain problematic for many hospitals. Here, we evaluated the feasibility of three operational approaches to tracking ED. We used mixed methods to evaluate the feasibility of 3 different approaches to tracking ED: (1) using administrative data, (2) using electronic medical record (EMR) data, and (3) using targeted data collection in a county-wide quality improvement (QI) effort. For (1), we analyzed data from the California 2009 linked birth cohort dataset, and calculated hospital rates of ED using TJC technical specifications. For (2), we performed a case study of a project that recruited hospitals to provide EMR data for the TJC measure calculation. For (3), we performed a case study of a project that recruited hospitals to prospectively track elective inductions of labor. For (1), hospital discharge data were insufficient without supplementation from the EMR or birth certificate. For (2), legal and operational issues surrounding data sharing, and non-standardized data elements prohibited hospital participation. For (3), the QI approach successfully established policies and data collection systems yet lacked infrastructure to assure sustainability at a hospital or regional level. In summary, ED tracking required the coordination and support of multiple resources to enable hospitals to satisfactorily report on this measure.

Abstract

After several decades of declining rates, maternal mortality climbed in California from a three-year moving average of 9.4 deaths per 100,000 live births in 1999-2001 to a high of 14.0 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2006-2008 (p < 0.001). The Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Division of the California Department of Public Health developed a mixed method approach to identify and investigate maternal deaths to inform prevention strategies. This paper describes the methodology of the California Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review (CA-PAMR) and its advantages for improved surveillance, cause of death analysis, and translation of findings. From 2002 to 2004, 1,598,792 live births occurred in California and 555 women died while pregnant or within one year of pregnancy. A screening algorithm identified cases for review that were likely to be pregnancy-related. Medical records were then abstracted and reviewed by a multidisciplinary committee to determine cause of death, contributing factors, and opportunities for quality improvement. Mixed methods were used to analyze, synthesize and translate Committee recommendations for improved care. Of 211 cases selected for review, 145 deaths were determined to be pregnancy-related. CA-PAMR methods corrected misclassification of cases and more accurately identified the leading causes of death. Cardiovascular disease emerged as the leading cause of pregnancy-related deaths (20%), and African-American women were disproportionately represented among cardiovascular deaths. Overall, the chance to prevent the fatal outcome appeared good or strong in 40% of cases reviewed. The CA-PAMR methodology resulted in additional case finding, improved accuracy of the causes of pregnancy-related deaths, and evidence to guide development of prevention and quality improvement efforts. Keywords Pregnancy-related deaths * Maternal mortality * Mortality review * Surveillance systems * Vital statistics * Quality improvement, Background Maternal mortality is an important indicator of population health and the quality of health care in a society. For each maternal death, many more women experience pregnancy-related morbidity of [...]

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the extent to which students in U.S. radiologic technology educational programs are being prepared to provide diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for geriatric patients. A total of 442 programs in radiography, nuclear medicine technology, radiation therapy and diagnostic medical sonography were surveyed. Results indicate that most gerontology instruction is limited to modules or units within defined courses, rather than comprehensive gerontology courses related to professional practice. Respondents indicated a perceived need for additional gerontology content in the curricula., The increasing numbers of elderly people in the U.S. population are well documented, and every aspect of the health care system is affected by this demographic shift, including the medical [...]

Abstract

Ion mobility and molecular modeling methods were used to investigate the gas phase conformational properties of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS) fluoride salts, where the fluoride is encapsulated within the POSS cage. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that the binding energy of fluoride to the interior of the POSS cage ranges from 70 to 270 kcal/mol as a function of substituent. Sodiated positive ions of the form HF@R8T8Na+ (T = SiO3/2, R = styrenyl, phenyl, and vinyl) were examined by MALDI; ESI was used to study the negative ions F-@R8T8 (R = styrenyl, phenyl, vinyl, trifluoropropyl, and nonafluorohexyl). The ion mobilities of these species were measured and used to calculate collision cross sections. These cross sections were compared to X-ray crystal structures and theoretical cross sections obtained from molecular mechanics and dynamics calculations. Experimental cross sections were consistent with all of the known X-ray crystal structures (styrenyl, vinyl and phenyl POSS species). The experimental cross sections also agreed with the calculated cross sections for each monomer species. Due to the compact nature of the POSS monomer cages, each sample had only one stable conformation, and only one low-energy family of structures was found for each set of sample calculations., Prepared in collaboration with the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA; the Department of Chemistry, Westmont College, Santa Barbara, CA; and ERC Inc., Edwards AFB, CA.

Abstract

Preterm birth, associated with substantial individual and societal burdens, is a leading cause of death worldwide in children before five years of age. In 2013, California experienced a preterm birth rate of 8.4%, remarkable for a state with nearly 500,000 births each year and a socioeconomically and culturally diverse population. In March 2015, the California Prematurity Summit brought together forty-four key leaders from across the state, including providers, researchers, public health officials, hospital administrators and community representatives, to identify best practices contributing to California's low preterm birth rate and to discuss other preventive measures that might be implemented to further reduce the preterm birth rate to 5.5% by 2030 or sooner. Some countries, including Japan, Norway, and Finland, have already achieved that target rate. This paper presents the key findings and recommendations based on the collaborative work of Summit participants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
