    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; quality improvement; Healthcare; learning mechanisms; integrated care; action research; improvement science;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTThe Swedish healthcare system, although being one of the more efficientcare systems in the world with good medical outcomes at a moderate cost,faces tremendous future challenges. An ageing population with morepatients suffering from multiple diseases together with accelerating medicotechnical developments is putting increasing pressure on the system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Knowledge for Improving Healthcare Service Quality : Combining Three Perspectives

    Author : Jonas Boström; Johan Lilja; Ingela Bäckström; Helene Hillborg; Andreas Hellström; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; quality; healthcare; knowledge; design thinking; improvement; professions;

    Abstract : The Swedish public sector in general, and healthcare specifically, is struggling with large deficits: 19 of 21 regions have large negative results in 2019. The demands made by the citizens and their elected politicians that healthcare should offer effective, accessible, good and equal care are difficult to meet. READ MORE

  5. 5. Improving alternatives assessment of plastic additives : exploring in silico tools to identify less hazardous flame retardants

    Author : Ziye Zheng; Patrik L. Andersson; Hans Peter Arp; Gregory Peters; Gerrit Schüürmann; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemical alternatives assessment; plastic additives; flame retardants; hazard; emission; in silico; modeling; quantitative structure-activity relationship QSAR ; multi-criteria decision analysis MCDA ; environmental science; miljövetenskap; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry; ekotoxikologi; Ecotoxicology; Toxicology; toxikologi;

    Abstract : Alternatives assessment is applied for replacing hazardous chemicals with viable, safer substitutes. High quality experimental hazard data, however, are usually unavailable for this purpose, and obtaining in silico data is the only approach to fill in data gaps. READ MORE
