Elektronische Dokumentation

Zusammenfassung. In der Pilotstudie QS-PSY-BAY wurde durch 217 Therapeuten eine Methode zur einrichtungs- und fachrichtungsübergreifenden Qualitätssicherung in der ambulanten psychotherapeutischen Versorgung an 1.696 Patienten erfolgreich erprobt. Es kam eine einheitliche elektronische Dokumentation zur Erfassung und Rückmeldung von Behandlungsparametern und des Behandlungserfolges zum Einsatz. Der individuelle Therapieverlauf wurde im Kontext anonymisierter Vergleichsgruppen mit gleicher Hauptdiagnose grafisch dargestellt. Der Studiendatensatz lässt sich zur Beantwortung von Fragen der Versorgungsforschung nutzen. Die Patienten weisen zu Therapiebeginn im Durchschnitt eine deutliche Beeinträchtigung ihres gesundheitlichen Befindens auf. Jeder zweite Patient wird aufgrund einer depressiven Störung behandelt. Die Prä-Post-Effektgröße der abgeschlossenen Therapien erreicht einen Wert von 1,57 und ist in der Ein-Jahres-Katamnese stabil. Bei Berücksichtigung des Drop-Outs nach Intent-To-Treat-Methodik beträgt die konservativ korrigierte Effektgröße 0,97. Damit haben die im Projekt evaluierten Behandlungen eine ausgezeichnete Ergebnisqualität, was die Bedeutung der ambulanten Psychotherapie für die Gesundheitsversorgung in Zeiten einer allgemeinen Zunahme psychischer Erkrankungen unterstreicht.

SummaryAim: Evaluation of the influence of histopathologic sub-types and grading of primaries of oesophageal cancer, relative to their size and location, on the uptake of 18F-deoxyglucose (FDG) as measured by positron emission tomography (PET). Methods: 50 consecutive patients were evaluated. There were four drop-outs due to previous surgical and/or chemotherapeutical treatments and thus in 46 patients (28 squamous cell carcinomas and 18 adenocarcinomas) a pretherapeutic PET evalution of the primary including a standard uptake value (SUV) was obtained. In 42 cases data on tumour grading were available also. Results: Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) were in 7/13/8 cases located in the proximal, medial and distal part of the oesophagus, respectively the grading was Gx in 3, G 2 in 12, G2-3 in 7, and G3 in 6 cases. The SUVmax showed a mean of 6.5 ± 2.8 (range 1.7-13.5). Adenocarcinomas (ACA) were located in the medial oesophagus in two cases and otherwise in its distal parts. Grading was Gx in one, G2 in 4, G2-3 in 3, G3 in 3, G3-4 in 3, and G4 in one case. The mean SUVmax was 5.2 ± 3.2 (range 1-13.6) and this was not significantly different from the SCC. Concerning the tumour grading there was a slight, statistically not relevant trend towards higher SUVmax in more dedifferentiated cancer. Discussion: SCC and ACA of the oesophagus show no relevant differences in the FDG-uptake. While there was a significant variability of tumour uptake in the overall study group, a correlation of SUV and tumour grading was not found.

Life Skills Education

Taman Sari Sub-District, Bogor Regency has the potential for fertile soil. But these lands have not been tilled properly. Narrow housing conditions, especially for poor people, do not allow residents to plant crops. Causing the lack of consumption of vegetables; which causes residents become easily sick. In addition, there is also a lot of plastic waste, especially bottled drinking water and other things that come from tourists and fishermen who have not been processed. This condition gave rise to the idea to provide life skills training in making vertical gardens, hydroponic plants and waste management. Besides the need for makeup and haircutting skills also needed especially for orphans fostered by Yasayan Usawatun Hasanah. Community Service Activities (PkM) aims to foster community awareness of the cleanliness of the environment and empower citizens to be more creative and entrepreneurial. Therefore, in addition to the types of activities requested by the residents, UPBJJ-UT Bogor will also teach about identifying the economic value of the work done in the form of determining the cost of goods sold / production. This activity was attended by 50 orphans and it ran smoothly and successfully. Now orphans already have life skills that hope can lift their economy.

Second Chance

The study traces the pathways of young people who dropped out of school between grades 1 to 11 as they seek re-entrance to the education, training and development (ETD) system, or entrance into the labour market. Particular attention is given to the factors that determine the choices that drop-outs make in either re-entering the ETD system or entering the labour market. An analysis of the experiences of the interviewed sample of drop-outs is presented. The study employs a qualitative research methodology, using interviews to elicit the experiences of drop-outs and school managers. Through snowballing, 14 youths and three principals were selected from a township south of Durban. Individual and focus group interviews were conducted. The findings provide insights into the drop-outs’ perceptions regarding the value of investing in education. They are discussed further in relation to the respective theories used in the study. The concluding section suggests the need for investments in second chance education by government and the private sector, and proposes an integrated model to assist young people who re-enter psychologically and emotionally.
