Analysis of human locomotion via entrainment to mechanical perturbations to the ankle during both treadmill and overground walking
No full textThesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering, 2016.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 94-104).Rehabilitation of human motor function is an issue of utmost significance affecting millions of Americans. Robot-aided therapy emerged as a promising method to meet the increasing demand for effective rehabilitation services. While robot-aided therapy for upper-extremity provides clinically-proven, efficient rehabilitation, human-interactive robots for lower-extremity therapy have been substantially less successful. Given the labor-intensive nature of conventional, human-administered walking therapy, effective robot-aided assistance is urgently needed. The use of robots and treadmills that may inadvertently suppress the expression of the natural oscillatory dynamics of walking is addressed in this thesis as a possible explanation for the ineffectiveness of robotic walking therapy. To further investigate the natural oscillatory dynamics of walking, the existence and provenance (spinal or central) of a neuro-mechanical oscillator underlying human locomotion was assessed. This oscillator was studied via gait entrainment to periodic mechanical perturbations at the ankle in both treadmill and overground environments. Experiments with unimpaired human subjects provided direct behavioral evidence of the non-negligible contribution to human walking made by a limit-cycle oscillator in the spinal neuro-mechanical periphery. Entrainment was always accompanied by phase-locking so that plantar-flexion perturbations assisted propulsion during ankle 'push-off' while dorsi-flexion perturbations assisted toe-clearance during 'initial swing'. The observed behavior seemed to require a neural adaptation that could not easily be ascribed to biomechanics, suggesting a hierarchical organization between the supra-spinal nervous system and the spinal neuro-mechanical periphery: episodic supervisory control.by Julieth Ochoa.S.M

The Influence of Supply Chain Practices on Health Service Delivery under the National Health Insurance Fund Scheme: A Case of Selected Hospitals in Tanzania
No full textThe study aimed to examine the influence of supply chain practices (process integration, agile practices, and strategic partnerships) on health service delivery under the NHIF scheme in selected hospitals in Tanzania. The research utilized a cross-sectional design, enabling data collection from 189 employees in a single snapshot at a specific moment. These participants were drawn from five selected hospitals under the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) scheme within Dodoma city. Data were collected using structured questionnaires scaled to a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1(strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) and then analyzed using multiple regression techniques. Findings show that the independent variables collectively account for 41.1% of the variance in the dependent variable. The best predictor of the dependent variable is strategic partnership practices which have a standardized coefficient of 0.484; p =0.001 followed by agile supply chain practice with a beta coefficient of 0.342; p 0.011, and lastly process integration practices with a beta coefficient of 0.297; p=0.019 whereby the variables in totality calls for the need to continue prioritizing the effective supply chain practices, given their substantial positive impact on health service delivery. The study provides novelty by linking key variables of supply chain practices with health service delivery under the NHIF scheme in the Tanzanian context as an area overlooked by other studies
Accompaniment and monitoring In The Environmental Management Processes Of The Hospital Of The Misericordia (HOMI) In The Integral Solid Waste Management Component
No full textLa generación de residuos sólidos es una de las problemáticas más complejas y en mayor cantidad, que afectan directamente al medio ambiente y la salud pública. Los hospitales, al ser grandes generadores de todo tipo de residuos, en especial peligrosos, deben velar por una óptima disposición de los mismos y por el bienestar de sus pacientes y su personal. (Res 1164 de 2002). El fundamento para la prevención de los riesgos relacionados con los residuos hospitalarios, está en su adecuado manejo y disposición; desde la separación en la fuente por el personal médico y paramédico, pasando por cada una de las etapas de manejo, hasta su tratamiento y disposición final (Ley 430 de 1998). Dichos procesos deben ser los adecuados y regirse por la norma, desde el tratamiento diferencial que se le da a cada tipo de residuo en la fuente, su desactivación, pasando por el adecuado almacenamiento y la entrega a las empresas que disponen de este finalmente (Departamento Administrativo Distrital del Medio Ambiente - DADIMA, 2002).
El hospital de la Misericordia, Fundación HOMI es una institución privada, dedicada específicamente al diagnóstico y tratamiento de enfermedades de alta complejidad en la población infantil. El hospital, como institución prestadora de servicios de salud debe contar con un plan de gestión integral de residuos hospitalarios cumpliendo las normas legales vigentes, contando con personal capacitado para el manejo del área ambiental igualmente contando con una óptima política ambiental que promueva el buen uso de los recursos naturales, fomentando el ahorro, uso eficiente del agua, control de vectores y entre otros. ( HOMI 2018).En este orden de ideas, el enfoque del trabajo a realizar se basa en el apoyo como tecnólogo en gestión ambiental y servicios públicos, en toda el área donde se hace seguimiento y control de los procesos realizados con los residuos sólidos generados en el hospital (AUTOR).The generation of solid waste is perhaps one of the most complex problems and in greater quantity, which directly affect the environment and public health. Hospitals, being large generators of waste of all kinds, especially hazardous waste, must ensure an optimal disposition of them and the welfare of their patients and their staff. (Res 1164 of 2002).The foundation for the prevention of risks related to hospital waste is its proper management and disposal, from separation at source by medical and paramedical personnel, through each of the stages of management, to its treatment and final disposal (Law 430 of 1998). These processes must be appropriate and governed by the standard, from the differential treatment that is given to each type of waste at the source, deactivation, through proper storage and delivery to companies that have this finally (Department District Administrative Department of the Environment - DADIMA, 2002).The Hospital of the Misericordia, Foundation HOMI is a private institution, dedicated specifically to the diagnosis and treatment of highly complex diseases in children. The hospital, as a provider of health services must have a comprehensive management plan for hospital waste and similar defined, follow the letter of the current legal norm, have trained personnel for the management of the environmental area and its related, have an optimal environmental policy, promote the proper use of natural resources, encourage savings and efficient use of water, vector control, among others. (HOMI 2018)In this order of ideas, the focus of the work to be carried out is based on the support as a technologist in environmental management and public services, in the whole area regarding the monitoring and control of the processes carried out with the solid waste generated in the hospital (AUTHOR).Fundación Hospital De La Misericordi
