Administrative Competencies

Aim. The aim of the study was to develop proposals for improving the administrative competencies in managers of health institutions. Material and methods. The main data for the study were obtained by questioning a group of managers of health institutions, namely state autonomous health care institutions of the Republic of Tatarstan. In total the questionnaire survey covered 31 health institutions. A total of 73 persons, including 31 heads of health institutions of the Republic of Tatarstan and 42 specialists from among the heads of departments and deputy chief physicians, who are the members of reserve of management personnel, participated in the questionnaire survey. Results and discussion. According to the data obtained, the group of heads of health institutions with the highest rating score differed from the representatives of health institutions with fewer rating scores by higher values of anticipatory statefulness. Among the heads of health institutions with the highest rating score, a higher level of overall anticipation competence was revealed, which allows us to conclude about the application of the algorithm of psychological tests for determining the level of anticipation competence to predict the effectiveness of the head when considering candidates for the appointment to the position of the head of a health institution. Conclusion. The developed algorithm of using the parameters of psychological tests to assess and predict the effectiveness of the respondent can be applied in the practice of the Ministry of Health, as a tool for human resource activities

Sustainability and leanness are organizational approach concepts for more efficient activities and increased competitiveness. This paper presents a study and an application of the concepts of sustainability and lean, with the purpose to capitalize on the benefits of the two concepts’ tools when used together in an industry and education activity. A literature review was carried out to evaluate qualitatively and empirically the concepts of sustainability, lean, and enterprise games, and the possibility to integrate the first two concepts into a new tool applied into an enterprise game. An online survey was done to identify which tools are used within companies in the region, how and what training methods they used, and what the reported benefits are. The survey results were used to design a new tool integrated in a new enterprise game (SLIM) developed by the authors. The game was tested and validated in educational laboratory with students and actual employees from companies. The game follows the frame of an enterprise game, considering the simulation of enterprise classical functions. The game’s purpose is to improve the activity in successive rounds. A scorecard is used to fill in and compute the key performance indicators (KPIs), and a new indicator is proposed (SLIMx). Applications of the instrument/game include: students’ training in an educational laboratory; lifelong learning; professional training in companies; and professional perfection/reconversion of potential employees and the unemployed. The SLIM game was simulated in a team of 15 players over three rounds, with teachers playing the role of the supervisor. A number of possible improvements have been identified. The next step is testing it in enterprises with various fields of activity. SLIM has proven to be an effective solution to improve organizational efficiency and motivate players to gain new knowledge.

Abstract Background Patient awareness surveys on polypharmacy have been reported previously, but no previous study has examined the effects of sending feedback to health professionals on reducing medication use. Our study aimed to conduct a patient survey to examine factors contributing to polypharmacy, feedback the results to health professionals, and analyze the resulting changes in the number of polypharmacy patients and prescribed medications. Methods After conducting a questionnaire survey of patients in Study 1, we provided its results to the healthcare professionals, and then surveyed the number of polypharmacy patients and oral medications using a before-after comparative study design in Study 2. In Study 1, we examined polypharmacy and its contributing factors by performing logistic regression analysis. In Study 2, we performed a t-test and a chi-square test. Results In the questionnaire survey, significant differences were found in the following 3 items: age (odds ratio (OR) = 3.14; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.01–4.91), number of medical institutions (OR = 2.34; 95%CI = 1.50–3.64), and patients’ difficulty with asking their doctors to deprescribe their medications (OR = 2.21; 95%CI = 1.25–3.90). After the feedback, the number of polypharmacy patients decreased from 175 to 159 individuals and the mean number of prescribed medications per patient decreased from 8.2 to 7.7 (p < 0.001, respectively). Conclusions Providing feedback to health professionals on polypharmacy survey results may lead to a decrease in the number of polypharmacy patients. Factors contributing to polypharmacy included age (75 years or older), the number of medical institutions (2 or more institutions), and patients’ difficulty with asking their physicians to deprescribe their medications. Feedback to health professionals reduced the percentage of polypharmacy patients and the number of prescribed medications. Trial registration UMIN.

The aim of the research is to achieve a conclusion what is the level of the reporting practice on intangible assets in two countries - in the Republic of Serbia and in the Republic of Slovenia trough a comparative descriptive statistics. Consolidated financial statements of listed companies in these two countries were used from the Belgrade Stock Exchange (Serbia) and the Ljubljana Stock Exchange (Slovenia). The reason for the use of consolidated financial statements lies in the fact that they can contain unconsolidated intangible assets already recognized in the separate financial statements of the companies included in the group, as well as internally generated intangible assets that meet the conditions for recognition in a business combination (including Goodwill). The general assessment is that the survey results indicate a very low level of reporting practice of intangible assets in Serbia and relatively satisfactory level of reporting practice in Slovenia. Individual results are given in the fourth part of the paper.

The article presents the results of the sociological survey of the young rural population of the Republic of Kalmykia on the problems of migration. The study analyzes the main goals and directions of the migration of young people. The results of the survey showed that the basic factors of the migration from rural areas are low level salaries, lack of work places, undeveloped infrastructure. The low level of social conditions is also one of the factors of migration of young people. The majority of the respondents plan to live in metropolises of Russia. No one of the respondents wants to live in a rural area. Thus, the analysis of the survey results showed that for young rural population the main channel for mobility is migration. It is important to note that rural area settlements have low level of attractiveness and prestige among contemporary young people which is due to low quality and level of life and the lack of preconditions for implementing life plans and strategies of the young people of the region.

Objectives We examined the usability of theophylline extended-release dry syrups, including their powder fluidity and ingestibility using one branded and six generic formulations (formulations A, B, C, D, E, F, and G, respectively). Methods To evaluate the ease of handling by pharmacists, powder fluidity was evaluated by measuring the repose angle, whereas to determine ingestibility, the viewpoints of patients or caregivers were evaluated using a questionnaire survey. Results and discussion: The repose angles of formulations A, B, C, D, E, and F were approximately 30°–40°. These formulations had sufficient powder fluidity, indicating the ease of weighing for most pharmacists. However, the repose angle of formulation G was <30°. Formulation G had high fluidity, suggesting its high rolling property. Thus, powder handling for formulation G may be more difficult than that for other six formulations. The ingestibility, such as the ease of mixing the dry syrup with water and odor intensity, was different between the formulations. Conclusions The present study provides useful information for selecting branded or generic theophylline extended-release dry syrups.
