Since the start of 2019 pandemic, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has proven to be a valuable tool for monitoring prevalence SARS-CoV-2. With methods and infrastructure being settled, it is time expand potential this wider range pathogens. We used over 500 archived RNA extracts from WBE program SARS-CoV-2 surveillance monitor wastewater 11 treatment plants presence influenza norovirus twice week during winter season 2021/2022. Extracts were analyzed via digital PCR A, B, GI, GII....
(1) Background: The Austrian supply of COVID-19 vaccine is limited for now. We aim to provide evidence-based guidance the authorities in order minimize COVID-19-related hospitalizations and deaths Austria. (2) Methods: used a dynamic agent-based population model compare different vaccination strategies targeted elderly (65 ≥ years), middle aged (45–64 younger (15–44 vulnerable (risk severe disease due comorbidities), healthcare workers (HCW). First, outcomes were optimized an initially...
ERP projects are complex purposes which influence main internal and external operations of companies. There different research approaches try to develop models for IS / success measurement or IT-success in general. Each model has its own area application sometimes a specific approach based, instance, on systems stakeholders involved. This paper shows some the most important developed literature an overview models. An analysis strengths, weaknesses cases could be used is made.
To inform allocation decisions in any healthcare system, robust cost data are indispensable. Nevertheless, recommendations on the most appropriate valuation approaches vary or nonexistent, and no internationally accepted gold standard exists. This costing analysis exercise aims to assess impact implications of different calculation methods sources based unit general practitioner (GP) consultations Austria.Six for were explored, following 3 Austrian methodological (AT-1, AT-2, AT-3) applied...
Abstract Real-world data (RWD) can provide intel (real-world evidence, RWE) for research and development, as well policy regulatory decision-making along the full spectrum of health care. Despite calls from global regulators international collaborations to integrate RWE into bridge knowledge gaps, some challenges remain. In this work, we performed an evaluation Austrian RWD sources using a multilateral query approach, crosschecked against previously published criteria conducted direct...
In response to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, Austrian governmental crisis unit commissioned a forecast consortium with regularly projections of case numbers and demand for hospital beds. The goal was assess how likely ICUs would become overburdened COVID-19 patients in upcoming weeks.We consolidated output three epidemiological models (ranging from agent-based micro simulation parsimonious compartmental models) published weekly short-term forecasts number confirmed cases as well estimates upper...
This article explores how social software tools can offer support for innovative learning methods and instructional design in general, those related to self-organized an academic context particular. In the first section, theoretical basis integration of wikis, discussion forums, Weblogs are discussed. The second part presents results empirical survey conducted by authors usage typical that from a student’s perspective. concludes have potential be fitting technology teaching environment.
Since the year 2000, prospective dental students at Innsbruck Medical University, Innsbruck, Austria, have undergone both theoretical and practical preadmission exams, called Dental Admission Test (DAT). The aim of this investigation was to assess suitability outcome selection practice. Five classes from 2001 2005 (N=97; forty‐three female, fifty‐four male) were retrospectively reviewed. DAT results compared with student performance, gender, ability graduate on time, dropout rates....
The Austrian diabetes disease management program (DMP) was introduced in 2007 order to improve health care delivery for diabetics via the promotion of treatment according guidelines. Considering current low participation rates DMP and question further program, it is particular interest insurance providers Austria assess whether enrollment leads differences pattern provision in- outpatient services, as well subsequent costs determine overall efficiency. Historic cohort study comparing average...
In response to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, Austrian governmental crisis unit commissioned a forecast consortium with regularly projections of case numbers and demand for hospital beds. The goal was assess how likely ICUs would become overburdened COVID-19 patients in upcoming weeks. We consolidated output three independent epidemiological models (ranging from agent-based micro simulation parsimonious compartmental models) published weekly short-term forecasts number confirmed cases as well...
Real-world data (RWD) collected in routine health care processes and transformed to real-world evidence have become increasingly interesting within the research medical communities enhance support regulatory decision-making. Despite numerous European initiatives, there is still no cross-border consensus or guideline determining which qualities RWD must meet order be acceptable for decision-making clinical decision support. In absence of guidelines defining quality standards RWD, an overview...
To demonstrate how the fit between individual, task and technology (FITT) framework can be used for health information system evaluation.We developed a prototype with an integrated expert head- ache patients. The FITT was to evaluate system.The framework, once applied, positively evaluated 199 headache diagnoses, 349 schemes 698 symptoms. We assessed 528 internet pages determine what extent they met users' expectations. In two study sections, total of 70 (of 140) participants system. second...
Summary Background Anti‐programmed death 1 (PD‐1) antibodies have evolved as a new standard of care in the adjuvant treatment completely resected melanoma. Real‐world data on efficacy and safety well cost‐effectiveness are still limited. Patients Methods Treatment outcomes were retrospectively analyzed continuous patient cohort receiving nivolumab (91 patients) or pembrolizumab (9 patients). Based obtained clinical data, semi‐Markov model was developed to evaluate cost‐effectiveness. Results...
Purpose After salary and wages, facility real estate expenditure are the largest cost items in semi‐public sector. Especially, for long‐term care facilities, there is high‐saving potential from more efficient effective use of property. The main purpose this paper an exploratory research study order to analyse operating costs facilities. Design/methodology/approach survey based on empirical data questionnaires, generation semi‐structured interviews at 18 facilities Tyrol, Austria carried out...
