Project Management Accounting Budgeting, Tracking, and Reporting Costs and Pr…

Over the last few decades project management has moved from its roots in industries such as construction and defense into the main- stream of American business. Many different industries, in particular the service sector, rely heavily on project management as an integral part of a successful strategy. In support of the widening importance of project management, a number of important professiona…

WHAT SOCIAL CLASSES OWE TO EACH OTHER

Written more than fifty years ago—in 1883—What Social Classes Owe to Each Other is even more pertinent today than at the time of its first publication. Then the arguments and "movements" for penalizing the thrifty, energetic, and competent by placing upon them more and more of the burdens of the thriftless, lazy and incompetent, were just beginning to make headway in our country, wherein…

STATISTICAL METHODS IN E-COMMERCE RESEARCH

Electronic commerce (e-commerce) is part of our everyday lives. Whether we purchase a book on Amazon.com, sell a DVD on eBay.com, or click on a sponsored link on Google.com, e-commerce surrounds us. E-commerce also produces a large amount of data: When we click, bid, rate, or pay, our digital “footprints” are recorded and stored. Yet, despite this abundance of available data, the field of …

The Complete CFO Handbook From Accounting to Accountability

The role of financial executives in any business has expanded signiicantly in recent years as companies become more accountable to their stake- holders and regulators. Combine this increase in accountability with the increasing sophistication of technology, risk management, financial analysis, and financial records processing, and we see that the responsibilities of financial executives in any …

Healthcare management and the decision-making process perspective

Healthcare appears to be a world of Evidence-Based Medicine and rational decisions. Seldom available, sufficient or relevant in view of human needs, scientific evidence do not address priorities when resources are more than ever globally insufficient to an increasingly voracious system. Literature shows than evidence are not sufficient while a wide range of “stakeholders” vie to influ…

Navigating Provenance Information for Distributed Healthcare Management

Provenance information provides a useful basis to verify whether a particular application behavior has been adhered to. This is particularly useful to evaluate the basis for a particular outcome, as a result of a process, and to verify if the process involved in making the decision con- forms to some predefined set of rules. This is significant in a healthcare scenario, where it is necessary …

AEROPLANES AND DIRIGIBLES OF WAR

It is a curious circumstance that an invention, which is hailed as being one of the greatest achievements ever recorded in the march of civilisation, should be devoted essentially to the maiming of humanity and the destruction of property. In no other trend of human endeavour is this factor so potently demonstrated as in connection with Man's Conquest of the Air. The dogged struggle against th…

Managing Health Care Waste Disposal

Health care waste management (HCWM) has been described as “a process to help ensure proper hospital hygiene and the safety of health care workers and communities. It includes planning and procurement, construction, staff training and behavior, proper use of tools, machines and pharmaceuticals, proper disposal methods inside and outside the hospital, and evaluation.”1 Health care waste manag…

Wearable Sensors for Pervasive Healthcare Management

We show that it is possible to identify individual personality traits and measure group performance in a Post- anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) using wearable sensors. We instrumented a group of 67 nurses working in the PACU of a Boston area hospital with sociometric badges capable of measuring physical activity, speech activity, face-to-face interaction, and physical proximity. Using the data colle…

War Injuries, Trauma, and Disaster Relief

Some volunteer surgeons may be interested in providing care for civilian victims of war in developing countries. More commonly, volunteers will be increasingly confronted with nonintentional acute and chronic trauma cases, mostly from road traffic accidents. On rare occasions, they might even participate in the relief and reconstruction efforts after natural disasters. There are significant dif…

Tuberculosis of the Musculoskeletal System

Tuberculosis remains a major source of morbidity and mortality world- wide, and orthopaedic surgeons working in developing nations, especially in South East Asia, are likely to encounter patients with osteoarticular manifestations of the disease. Chemotherapy is effective, and surgery serves as an adjunct for specific indications. Tuberculous osteomyelitis is the least common presentation, and …

Nonoperative Management of Pediatric Upper Extremity Fractures or ‘Don’t …

With the exception of fractures involving the distal humerus, almost all fractures of the upper extremity can be successfully treated by noninvasive methods. The surgeon treating upper extremity fractures in children in areas of developing nations where the medical and surgical resources are limited should have a good knowledge of the nonoperative techniques available. He or she should also be …

Chronic Osteomyelitis in Children

In developing countries, chronic osteomyelitis often results from untreated acute hematogenous osteomyelitis but may also be seen as sequelae of trauma (war injuries). This condition is characterized by areas of devitalized bone/soft tissue (sequestra), which serve as a nidus for recurrent episodes of infection. The periosteal response (involucrum) serves to restore structural integrity, and pa…

Nevertheless, experience has proven that wastes originating from health-care establishments, when properly managed, generally pose no greater…
