Paediatric musculoskeletal matters (pmm) – collaborative development of an online evidence based interactive learning tool and information resource for education in paediatric musculoskeletal medicine
No full textBackground
We describe the collaborative development of an evidence based, free online resource namely ‘paediatric musculoskeletal matters’ (pmm). This resource was developed with the aim of reaching a wide range of health professionals to increase awareness, knowledge and skills within paediatric musculoskeletal medicine, thereby facilitating early diagnosis and referral to specialist care.
Methods
Engagement with stakeholder groups (primary care, paediatrics, musculoskeletal specialties and medical students) informed the essential ‘core’ learning outcomes to derive content of pmm. Representatives from stakeholder groups, social science and web development experts transformed the learning outcomes into a suitable framework. Target audience representatives reviewed the framework and their opinion was gathered using an online survey (n = 74) and focus groups (n = 2). Experts in paediatric musculoskeletal medicine peer reviewed the content and design.
Results
User preferences informed design with mobile, tablet and web compatible versions to facilitate access, various media and formats to engage users and the content presented in module format (i.e. Clinical assessment, Investigations and management, Limping child, Joint pain by site, Swollen joint(s) and Resources).
Conclusions
We propose that our collaborative and evidence-based approach has ensured that pmm is user-friendly, with readily accessible, suitable content, and will help to improve access to paediatric musculoskeletal medicine education. The content is evidence-based with the design and functionality of pmm to facilitate optimal and ‘real life’ access to information. pmm is targeted at medical students and the primary care environment although messages are transferable to all health care professionals involved in the care of children and young people

Contour and Layers: An Architectural Exploration
No full textThe book is a series of plates, pictures and writings which are the results of an architectural thesis exploring, line, contour and layers. The plates are scans of original work by the author, made in a combination of media including: pencil, pastel, watercolor, photograph, study models, hand-drafted drawings, and computer aided drawings. A transcript of the presentation of the work at the thesis defense is included. The simple idea is the impression of contour by the expression of layers. The contour is a line tracing the motion and movement of architecture. Resulting from practice in drawing using pastels, pencil and paper the line, through continuity, can twist, pass over, go under and around- joining parts into an organized whole. Following a program of a modern bath, an architectural space is made, built by layers. The thesis is an architectural exploration of layers and the resultant contours. The best representation of this work is available in printed form at the Art and Architecture Library on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg, Virginia.Master of Architectur

No full textThe change initiative diamond : a framework to balance business process redesign with other change initiatives
No full textIn many organisations radical change towards a process orientation, often termed
Business Process Redesign/Re-engineering (BPR), is being undertaken with the aim of
achieving very significant improvements in performance. Often scholars and consultants
suggest that managers should base their redesign efforts on a ‘clean sheet’ view of the
organisation. There appears to be an implicit assumption that BPR initiatives will take
place in organisations where no other changes are in progress. In practice this does not
appear to be the case; in many enterprises BPR is instigated against a back-drop of a
plethora of change initiatives which have been designed to address previous strategic and
tactical issues. The literature deals inadequately with the relationship between BPR and
other change initiatives. Hence managers often do not appreciate the way in which these
initiatives can contribute, or indeed hinder, the implementation of a major BPR
programme. A framework to enable managers gain an overview of initiatives already in
place, to ensure that work was not be duplicated and to identify and redeploy resources
more efficiently would be of value. In addition, this information would contribute to more
effective decision making when managers are called upon to deal with existing change
initiatives in parallel with BPR. Janet Price, Ashley Braganza and Oscar Weiss present a
framework, the Change Initiative Diamond, which has been developed to classify existing
change projects within an organisation or strategic business unit prior to a BPR initiative.
The authors present two organisational examples of ways in which the Diamond can be
operationalised and provide initial guidelines for managers balancing several projects in
tandem with BPR initiatives.School of Managemen
