Seminar Sino-Dutch Business Development

 In summary we want to discuss:1) Courses and training in the field of nursing (General); elderly care, dementia and physical therapy.2) sending Chinese students to Groningen, Deventer3) training in the use of home automation and application of the technology in care homes, or in residential communities for seniors4) international cooperation, we strive for crossovers between schools and research centers, Hanze & Saxion and the possibility of organizing applied research at the Chinese organizations has been agreed. We now also have a Dutch healthcare organization that can serve as a model, and where we will also conduct research. (Tangenborgh from Emmen)There is a huge spread in the projects in which Heinrich, Jan and Jan Willem collaborate. Subjects range from studying domotica in the process of dementia in elderly care, to the transition from a collectivist society to a more individual society, both within the realm of social scientific research. Moreover, physical, biological and economical processes of change - for instance sampled by sensors- may also form the heart of the applied scientific interest of the team. The common thread is formed by the dynamic system description of the change processes over time. These are sometimes (within certain limits) linear, but much more often there is complex non-linear coherence, which, however, runs according to patterns (and therefore contains systematic components). Emergent properties, instead of determined linear chains. Modern data analysis techniques and insight into system thinking form the core. We work with beta talents, including IT specialists trained at ItVitae, in the Beta lab of Marcel Hurkens.

Human-cobot Teams

Now that collaborative robots are becoming more widespread in industry, the question arises how we can make them better co-workers and team members. Team members cooperate and collaborate to attain common goals. Consequently they provide and receive information, often non-linguistic, necessary to accomplish the work at hand and coordinate their activities. The cooperative behaviour needed to function as a team also entails that team members have to develop a certain level of trust towards each other. In this paper we argue that for cobots to become trusted, successful co-workers in an industrial setting we need to develop design principles for cobot behaviour to provide legible, that is understandable, information and to generate trust. Furthermore, we are of the opinion that modelling such non-verbal cobot behaviour after animal co-workers may provide useful opportunities, even though additional communication may be needed for optimal collaboration.

Effects of the application of a checklist during trauma resuscitations on ATLS adherence, team performance, and patient-related outcomes: a systematic review

Purpose In this systematic literature review, the effects of the application of a checklist during in hospital resuscitation of trauma patients on adherence to the ATLS guidelines, trauma team performance, and patient-related outcomes were integrated. Methods A systematic review was performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Metaanalyses checklist. The search was performed in Pubmed, Embase, CINAHL, and Cochrane inception till January 2019. Randomized controlled- or controlled before-and-after study design were included. All other forms of observational study designs, reviews, case series or case reports, animal studies, and simulation studies were excluded. The Effective Public Health Practice Project Quality Assessment Tool was applied to assess the methodological quality of the included studies. Results Three of the 625 identified articles were included, which all used a before-and-after study design. Two studies showed that Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS)-related tasks are significantly more frequently performed when a checklist was applied during resuscitation. [14 of 30 tasks (p < 0.05), respectively, 18 of 19 tasks (p < 0.05)]. One study showed that time to task completion (− 9 s, 95% CI = − 13.8 to − 4.8 s) and workflow improved, which was analyzed as model fitness (0.90 vs 0.96; p < 0.001); conformance frequency (26.1% vs 77.6%; p < 0.001); and frequency of unique workflow traces (31.7% vs 19.1%; p = 0.005). One study showed that the incidence of pneumonia was higher in the group where a checklist was applied [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.69, 95% Confidence Interval (CI 1.03–2.80)]. No difference was found for nine other assessed complications or missed injuries. Reduced mortality rates were found in the most severely injured patient group (Injury Severity score > 25, aOR 0.51, 95% CI 0.30–0.89). Conclusions The application of a checklist may improve ATLS adherence and workflow during trauma resuscitation. Current literature is insufficient to truly define the effect of the application of a checklist during trauma resuscitation on patientrelated outcomes, although one study showed promising results as an improved chance of survival for the most severely injured patients was found.
