Kajian Desain Rumah Sakit Mobil

Bencana dan pandemi memerlukan respon sistem kesehatan yang gesit. Karakter geografis Indonesia juga menuntut kelincahan di satu sisi dan integrasi sistem di sisi lain yang belum sepenuhnya direspons oleh sistem eksisting yang mengandalkan infrastruktur stasioner. Saat ini, dalam literatur dan praktik global, mobile health care system telah menjadi trend namun belum menjadi bagian dari wacana di Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memulai desain rumah sakit modular untuk mengisi kesenjangan sistemik ini. Penelitian pendahuluan ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode tinjauan pustaka naratif untuk mengidentifikasi kriteria desain kritis sebagai bagian dari metodologi penelitian desain. Artikel ini merekomendasikan enam kriteria penting untuk ide desain arsitektur dan pengembangan kebijakan untuk rumah sakit mobile modular.

The Patient as a Mobile Health Care Consumer

Many believe that digital health will be a catalyst to enable health care to become more market-centric and consumer-driven. Indeed, the Covid-19 pandemic has essentially redefined the concept of “elective” procedures based almost entirely on patient preference and behaviors, much of which was unexpected. Although the concept of educated and empowered patient consumers paints a compelling vision, many fear the unintended consequences of removing or minimizing trusted caregiver guidance from the equation. What are the risks and unintended consequences of self-managed care? Will patients properly prioritize? Will the benefits, risks, and potential trade-offs be understood? How will fact be separated from hype, misinformation and confirmation bias? In this chapter the opportunities and hazards of patients as mobile health consumers are detailed with a specific focus on potential harms and corresponding mitigations.

Room-Temperature Catalyst Enables Selective Acetone Sensing

Catalytic packed bed filters ahead of gas sensors can drastically improve their selectivity, a key challenge in medical, food and environmental applications. Yet, such filters require high operation temperatures (usually some hundreds °C) impeding their integration into low-power (e.g., battery-driven) devices. Here, we reveal room-temperature catalytic filters that facilitate highly selective acetone sensing, a breath marker for body fat burn monitoring. Varying the Pt content between 0–10 mol% during flame spray pyrolysis resulted in Al2O3 nanoparticles decorated with Pt/PtOx clusters with predominantly 5–6 nm size, as revealed by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. Most importantly, Pt contents above 3 mol% removed up to 100 ppm methanol, isoprene and ethanol completely already at 40 °C and high relative humidity, while acetone was mostly preserved, as confirmed by mass spectrometry. When combined with an inexpensive, chemo-resistive sensor of flame-made Si/WO3, acetone was detected with high selectivity (≥225) over these interferants next to H2, CO, form-/acetaldehyde and 2-propanol. Such catalytic filters do not require additional heating anymore, and thus are attractive for integration into mobile health care devices to monitor, for instance, lifestyle changes in gyms, hospitals or at home.

Socio-demographic and Health Profile of Schedule Castes of Patna, Vaishali and Nalanda Bihar, India

Background: Patna and peripheral districts (Nalanda and Vaishali) have some dominated area of SC and ST population but the distribution and demographic details of these areas are not properly documented. The main objective of the paper is to analyze the status of the scheduled castes of Patna, with respect to size of the population, sex ratio, literacy level, marital status, occupation and income. Methodology: A pre-tested questionnaire containing information about demographic particulars like caste, age, gender, educational qualification, occupation and monthly income was administered through Mobile health care OPDs under the SCSP. Survey was conducted between the years 2018-2020. These data are shown to be suitable for evaluating the impact of demographic and socio-economic elements on regular health examinations. Result: The analysis of data clearly indicates that there were significant differences with the age group 13-20, 21-30 and >60, caste, with religion of Hindu and Muslim, educational status regarding semi-literate and graduate or above, Mizaj, diet habit and there were no significant differences with respect to gender, religion and addiction behaviour are noticed. By presenting the methods used in this survey and by describing the enquiries mentioned in the dataset, this article aims to promote data-collecting methodologies that can help policy-makers and health communicators derive practical conclusions. Conclusion: It can be concluded that there is significant difference in the age group of SC population. While there were no significant differences with respect to gender, religion and addiction behaviour was noticed. Most of the SC population belongs to balghami temperament and most preferred food habit of them is mixed mostly.
