Introduction: To evaluate the awareness amongst the beneficiary about the costs of medical services in a hospital which provides all services at no cost and also to analyse whether education level of the beneficiary client, number of days stayed in hospital and their prior exposure of being treated on payment in other hospital has some bearing on cost estimation by the participants. Method: It was a cross sectional questionnaire based survey study. A total of 130 beneficiary clientele of a government hospital were interviewed. Two sample ‘t’ test and ANOVA were used for statistical analysis. Multivariate regression analysis was used to study effect of more than one independent variable on cost estimation. Scatter plot and box plots were used to study standard deviation. Results: It revealed poor awareness of people in cost estimation of medical expenses. A significant ‘p’ value of < 0.05 was observed with respect to length of stay (p = 0.003), treatment modality (p = 0.000) and multivariate variable (treatment technique along with exposure to treatment in paid hospital, p = 0.008). Conclusion: The beneficiary clientele in a hospital with free treatment generally not aware about the exuberant costs of treatment born by the state.

AbstractDuring rhinoplasty consultations, surgeons typically create a computer simulation of the expected result. An artificial intelligence model (AIM) can learn a surgeon's style and criteria and generate the simulation automatically. The objective of this study is to determine if an AIM is capable of imitating a surgeon's criteria to generate simulated images of an aesthetic rhinoplasty surgery. This is a cross-sectional survey study of resident and specialist doctors in otolaryngology conducted in the month of November 2019 during a rhinoplasty conference. Sequential images of rhinoplasty simulations created by a surgeon and by an AIM were shown at random. Participants used a seven-point Likert scale to evaluate their level of agreement with the simulation images they were shown, with 1 indicating total disagreement and 7 total agreement. Ninety-seven of 122 doctors agreed to participate in the survey. The median level of agreement between the participant and the surgeon was 6 (interquartile range or IQR 5–7); between the participant and the AIM it was 5 (IQR 4–6), p-value < 0.0001. The evaluators were in total or partial agreement with the results of the AIM's simulation 68.4% of the time (95% confidence interval or CI 64.9–71.7). They were in total or partial agreement with the surgeon's simulation 77.3% of the time (95% CI 74.2–80.3). An AIM can emulate a surgeon's aesthetic criteria to generate a computer-simulated image of rhinoplasty. This can allow patients to have a realistic approximation of the possible results of a rhinoplasty ahead of an in-person consultation. The level of evidence of the study is 4.

<p>Antiretroviral treatment side-effects and patient compliance with medical instructions continue to be a growing challenge for HIV/AIDS patients. Arv therapy has resulted in a substantial intervention that has been successful in preventing transmission and opportunistic infection. The main objective of this study was to analyze the association between side-effects of ARV therapy and medication adherence as well as another potential confounding such as opportunistic infection, family support, stress level, knowledge of ARV, marital status, and occupation. This study is a quantitative approach by using cross-sectional methods. A total of 244 respondents from 1.180 patients with confirmed HIV registered in the Care Support and Treatment (CST) service and Sriwijaya Community in the City of Palembang to respond to the survey. Non-random sampling was used to collect the samples. As the result, the majority of the respondents were male (84,43 %), ≥30 years old (57,4%), and secondary school graduates (52%). After adjusting with stress and opportunistic infection variable, a Multivariate regression analysis revealed a positive relationship between side effects and medication adherence (p-value of 0,041; 0,05), OR Adj 2,131 (1,190-4,988). PLHV who had adverse effects had a 2.131 times worse adherence rate than those who did not. In conclusion, medication adherence must be greatly improved in light of therapeutic side effects, stress levels, and opportunistic infection.</p>

This paper focuses on determining the influence of sales territory design on salesforce performance in the detergent manufacturing companies in Kenya. Detergents play a critical role in our everyday lives by ensuring hygiene at our personal level, in our homes, in schools, institutions, and hospitals. Detergents have gained a lot of prominence since the onset of the Corona Virus (COVID-19) disease in 2019, as it has been proved that they play an important role in curtailing the transmission of the COVID-19 disease. The Salesforce plays an important role in organizations as they are the ones who in most cases interact with customers, provide information about their organization and products, provide prices, demonstrate how products are used, train customers, provide after sales service, and resolve any issues that may arise. The study was anchored on Expectancy Theory, Resource Based Theory, Equity Theory, and Agency Theory. The study adopted positivism philosophy and used a descriptive cross sectional design. The unit of analysis was the sales people in the detergent manufacturing companies in Kenya who are members of Kenya Association of Manufacturers as per list obtained from KAM in December 2018. The study used primary data which was collected by administering semi-structured questionnaires. The data was analyzed using a combination of both descriptive and inferential statics to describe the manifestations of the variables in the data collected, simple regression model was used to test the significance of the influence of sales territory design (independent variable) on the salesforce performance (dependent variable). Fischer distribution test (F-test) was used to test the significance of the independent variable and the overall model. The p-value for the F-statistic was used to determine the robustness of the model. This was done at 95% confidence level (p<0.05). The study found a strong relationship between sales territory design and salesforce performance. This depicts that sales territory design is critical in determining salesforce performance in detergent manufacturing companies in Kenya.
