The Croatian Littoral has been the most important tourist destination for tourists from Slovenia for decades. The coastal areas of Istria, Kvarner, and Dalmatia, including the Adriatic islands, became widely popular among Slovenes in the period of intense tourism development in the once common state of Yugoslavia. Today Croatia is the destination of as many as 60% of all private trips from Slovenia. In the introduction the affinity of Slovene tourists for travel abroad is supplemented with statistical data on their visits to the Republic of Croatia. In the next sections special emphasis is placed on the number of Slovene tourists and overnight stays, their average length of stay and spatial distribution in the Croatian Littoral in 2007. These data are then compared to those from 1999. The central section of the article consists of a detailed analysis of the content of the internet tourism offer of Slovene travel agencies as presented on their websites. The objects of the analysis were the structure of advertised destinations in the Croatian Littoral across counties and the structure of offer by type of tourist services (summer vacation, travelling/trip, cruising).

At the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, when tourist traffic is falling sharply, domestic tourists become very important. They become the dominant or even the only source of income for tourism sector. This paper shows that due to the closure of countries in order to reduce the possibility of spreading disease, both the number of tourists and the number of overnight stays declined. However, in the summer months and during the holidays, domestic tourists filled capacities and resourceful individuals managed to take advantage of the opportunity that arose by adjusting their offer and/or tourist product. The conducted research is based on statistical data from the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia. Given the recovery period of the tourism sector as well as the possibility of new and similar diseases in the future, communication with domestic tourists will become increasingly important, as shown by this research.

The affirmation of Zlatibor as a tourist destination dates back to ancient times, so Zlatibor can be proud of its tradition of over 150 years. The turning point in the development of Zlatibor tourism is the visit of the Serbian sovereign Alexander I Obrenović. In 1893, two important tourist settlements were located on the mountain and residential objects were built. Therefore, the previously mentioned year is considered to be the beginning of organized tourism on Zlatibor. The second turning point in the development was the construction of a modern road that connected Užice with Kraljeva Voda, at the time when the interest of tourists exceeded the accommodation capacities. At the beginning of the 1930s due to the numerous values of Zlatibor, its favorable position and good transport connections with all parts of Serbia and neighboring countries, tourism on Zlatibor started to develop. The Zlatibor Resort, on the mountain of the same name, annually receives over one million overnight stays, mainly by domestic tourists, making it one of the most visited tourist destinations in the Republic of Serbia. The types of tourist services are sports, recreational, health and Congress tourism, and in recent years, tourist offers for children and youth have become more important. Accordingly, Zlatibor, as a tourist center, has no significant competition in Serbia or in the region. With further development and investment in tourism, Zlatibor will carry for a long time the epithet of the most visited and most attractive tourist destination of Serbia, despite its obvious shortcomings.

This study determines the characteristics and preferences of Chinese tourists in choosing accommodations in Badung district. Based on the Bali Central Bureau of Statistics 2016-2018, there is an increase of Chinese tourists' visits to Badung Regency, mainly Nusa Dua, Kuta and Jimbaran famous for its tourist destination accommodations thus makes it highly competitive. This study consists of 50 Chinese tourists as respondents using questionnaires from May-July 2019 selected by incidental sampling, then analyzed by conjoint technique which revealed that most prefer the Nusa Dua area. Characteristically most of them come from Liaoning Province dominated by women aged 15-24 years. Eighty six per cent of these are private employees with a bachelor's degree. It is their first visit to Badung Regency with an average length of stay of 4-6 days accompanied by friends for leisure activities. They obtain information from the internet and 92% of them chose a star rated accommodation.Tourist preferences in accommodation selection are analyzed and summarised as important values. The resulting highest to lowest values are as follows: facilities, Promotion, comfort, location, service, price, and cleanliness.


Hungary established itself as a major tourist destination already decades ago, when it became renowned for its thermal spas and rich cultural and architectural heritage of the former Austro- Hungarian monarchy. In the recent years, the country has attracted tourists and daily visitors with a diverse tourism offer, which ranges from activities in natural protected areas with high levels of biodiversity to international festival events and famous traditional culinary and wine products. In 2015, the country recorded over 10 million tourist arrivals, among which foreign tourists prevailed. Due to geographical vicinity, as well as historical, social and political similarities, Hungary also represents a popular destination for visitors and tourists from Slovenia. According to the Statistical office of the Republic of Slovenia, about 46,000 tourists from Slovenia visited Hungary in 2014. This number is based on the criterion of at least one overnight stay in Hungarian accommodation establishments and is therefore underestimated in the aspect of Slovenian visitors, since many Slovenians visit this country in a single day. In the paper, authors analyse the spatial distribution of tourist traffic and present the main characteristics of (organized) Slovenian tourist visits to Hungary. The main part of the research is focused on the analysis of the internet-based tourism offer, provided by Slovenian travel agencies. The offer was subjected to a detailed review that concentrated on its spatial distribution.

AbstractIn Ireland patients who are found unfit to plead are automatically detained in the Central Mental Hospital (CMH) at the pleasure of the court. The CMH is the only high security psychiatric hospital in the Republic of Ireland. There is no limit on the length of detention and no review system in place. We reviewed the case notes of all the prisoners admitted to the CMH since 1937 who were found unfit to plead. We identified 24 cases which included only one female. The mean age was 33.5 years. Nearly 25% had a criminal record and over 60% had a past psychiatric history. The primary diagnoses were schizophrenia (12), mental handicap (4), personality disorders (3), psychotic episode (2), dementia (2) and manic depression (1). The average length of stay in the CMH was 18 years. We review the situation in the UK and in the USA and we make recommendations about legislation.

Background: The efficiency of service delivery is very important for hospitals. One measurement of service indicators that can be used is the Barber Johnson graph (GBJ). GBJ is needed to see and measure the level of service efficiency in hospitals. The indicators used are bed occupancy rate (BOR), bed turnover rate (BTR), turnover interval (TI), and length of stay (LOS). This graph can also be used to compare or view hospital developments at different times, and to increase the likelihood of changes in one variable by changing other variables. This research was conducted at Semen Padang Hospital (SPH), Padang, West Sumatera, Indonesia.Methods: The purpose of this study was to determine the statistical value of hospital and hospital service efficiency levels by using the Barber Johnson graphic. This research method is descriptive by direct observation of the medical record file of inpatients since the January to December 2017 period.Results: Statistical data obtained from SPH in 2018 showed the value of service days 30132, and the Number of beds 144 units. From the data processing results obtained a total bed occupancy rate 60.83%, bed turnover rate 6.86 times, turnover interval 2 days and average length of stay 3 days.Conclusions: Statistical data obtained from SPH in 2018 shows the value of BOR, TI is in an efficient, while BTR and LOS are inefficient.

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) are a growing public health concern in Barbados. Intensive care and critically ill patients are at a higher risk for MRSA and CRKP colonization and infection. MRSA and CRKP colonization and infection are associated with a high mortality and morbidly rate in the intensive care units (ICUs) and high-dependency units (HDUs). There is no concrete evidence in the literature regarding MRSA and CRKP colonization and infection in Barbados or the Caribbean. Objectives: We investigated the prevalence of MRSA and CRKP colonization and infection in the patients of the ICU and HDU units at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital from 2013 to 2017. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of patients admitted to the MICU, SICU, and HDU from January 2013 through December 2017. Data were collected as part of the surveillance program instituted by the IPC department. Admissions and weekly swabs for rectal, nasal, groin, and axilla were performed to screen for colonization with MRSA and CRKP. Follow-up was performed for positive cultures from sterile isolates, indicating infection. Positive MRSA and CRKP colonization or infection were identified, and patient notes were collected. Our exclusion criteria included patients with a of stay of <48 hours and patients with MRSA or CRKP before admission. Results: Of 3,641 of persons admitted 2,801 cases fit the study criteria. Overall, 161 (5.3%) were colonized or infected with MRSA alone, 215 (7.67%) were colonized or infected with CRKP alone, and 15 (0.53%) were colonized or infected with both MRSA and CRKP. In addition, 10 (66.6%) of patients colonized or infected with MRSA and CRKP died. Average length of stay of patients who died was 50 days. Conclusions: The results of this study demonstrate that MRSA and CRKP cocolonization and coinfection is associated with high mortality in patients within the ICU and HDU units. Patients admitted to the ICU and HDU with an average length of stay of 50 days are at a higher risk for cocolonization and coinfection with MRSA and CRKP. Stronger IPC measures must be implemented to reduce the spread and occurrence of MRSA and CRKP.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None

Background: The CDC NHSN surveillance coverage includes central-line–associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) in acute-care hospital intensive care units (ICUs) and select patient-care wards across all 50 states. This surveillance enables the use of CLABSI data to measure time between events (TBE) as a potential metric to complement traditional incidence measures such as the standardized infection ratio and prevention progress. Methods: The TBEs were calculated using 37,705 CLABSI events reported to the NHSN during 2015–2018 from medical, medical-surgical, and surgical ICUs as well as patient-care wards. The CLABSI TBE data were combined into 2 separate pairs of consecutive years of data for comparison, namely, 2015–2016 (period 1) and 2017–2018 (period 2). To reduce the length bias, CLABSI TBEs were truncated for period 2 at the maximum for period 1; thereby, 1,292 CLABSI events were excluded. The medians of the CLABSI TBE distributions were compared over the 2 periods for each patient care location. Quantile regression models stratified by location were used to account for factors independently associated with CLABSI TBE, such as hospital bed size and average length of stay, and were used to measure the adjusted shift in median CLABSI TBE. Results: The unadjusted median CLABSI TBE shifted significantly from period 1 to period 2 for the patient care locations studied. The shift ranged from 20 to 75.5 days, all with 95% CIs ranging from 10.2 to 32.8, respectively, and P < .0001 (Fig. 1). Accounting for independent associations of CLABSI TBE with hospital bed size and average length of stay, the adjusted shift in median CLABSI TBE remained significant for each patient care location that was reduced by ∼15% (Table 1). Conclusions: Differences in the unadjusted median CLABSI TBE between period 1 and period 2 for all patient care locations demonstrate the feasibility of using TBE for setting benchmarks and tracking prevention progress. Furthermore, after adjusting for hospital bed size and average length of stay, a significant shift in the median CLABSI TBE persisted among all patient care locations, indicating that differences in patient populations alone likely do not account for differences in TBE. These findings regarding CLABSI TBEs warrant further exploration of potential shifts at additional quantiles, which would provide additional evidence that TBE is a metric that can be used for setting benchmarks and can serve as a signal of CLABSI prevention progress.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None
