    Uvod: Zdravstveni dispečer ima pomembno vlogo v verigi preživetja, saj ima pomembno vlogo pri prepoznavi nenadnega srčnega zastoja, pri nudenju navodil za oživljanje po telefonu ter pri zagotavljanju hitrega dostopa do AED in čimprejšnjo aktivacijo ustreznih ekip NMP, kar pripomore k boljšemu preživetju pacientov po PNSZ. Raziskovalne metode: Za teoretična izhodišča naloge smo uporabili deskriptivno metodo zbiranja podatkov in analizo pridobljenih podatkov s pregledom strokovne in znanstvene literature. Enocentrična retrospektivna raziskava temelji na kvantitativni metodologiji. Rezultati: Med 49 analiziranimi primeri PNSZ je bilo 57,1 % moških. Zdravstveni dispečerji so v 44,9 % primerov preverili kakovost dihanja. V 40,8 % primerih je bilo prisotno agonalno dihanje, ventrikularna fibrilacija pa je bila kot najpogosteje zabeležen inicialni ritem prisotna v 25 %. Ob prisotnosti agonalnega dihanja so zdravstveni dispečerji PNSZ prepoznali v 35 %, navodila za izvajanje KPO-AD pa so podali v 25 %. Ob odsotnosti dihanja so PNSZ prepoznali v 51 %, navodila za KPO-AD pa so podali v 48,3 %. Če so zdravstveni dispečerji podali navodila za izvajanje KPO-AD je 14,3 % pacientov preživelo 30 dni oziroma do odpusta iz bolnišnice. Sklep: Za razliko od ostalih raziskav smo v naši raziskavi ugotovili, da KPO-AD in krajši dostopni časi do kraja intervencije ne vplivajo k večjemu preživetju po PNSZ, vendar pa dostopni časi v naši raziskavi v 80 % presegajo 8 minut, ko preživetje po PNSZ kljub izvajanju KPO-AD drastično pada in izvajanje KPO-AD nima več bistvenega vpliva na preživetje.Introduction: The emergency medical dispatcher has an important role in the chain of survival, because he has an important role in recognizing sudden heart failure, giving instructions for resuscitation over the phone, ensuring quick access to AED, and activating the appropriate EMS teams as soon as possible, thereby contributing to a better survival of OHCA patients. Research methods: For the theoretical starting points of the task, we used the descriptive method of data collection and analysis of the acquired data with a review of professional and scientific literature. Enocentric retrospective research is based on quantitative methodology. Results: There was 57.1 % of men among 49 OHCA analyzed cases. In 44.9 % of cases, emergency medical dispatcher checked the quality of breathing. In 40.8 % of cases, agonal respiration was present, and ventricular fibrillation was the most commonly observed initial rhythm present in 25 %. In the presence of agonal respiration, medical dispatchers recognized the OHCA at 35 % and the instructions for implementing DA-CPR were presented in 25 %. In the absence of respiration, the OHCA was recognized at 51 % and the instructions for DA-CPR were presented in 48.3 %. If the medical dispatchers gave instructions for implementing DA-CPR, 14.3 % of patients survived 30 days or until they were discharged from the hospital. Conclusion: Unlike other studies, we found in our study that DA-CPR and shorter access times to the site of the intervention do not affect the survival of the OHCA, but the access times in our study in 80 % exceed 8 minutes when survival according to OHCA despite the implementation of DA-CPR drastically decreases and the implementation of DA-CPR no longer has a significant effect on survival

    About ten years ago, the present author reported on the acquisition of the remanent magnetization caused by the uni-directional high pressure and proposed such a remanent magnetization may be called 'piezo-remanent magnetization (prm)' (Domen & Kawai 1957, Domen 1958, 1962, Nagata 1966). Some additional experimental data obtained afterwards are herein presente

    V diplomskem delu sem oblikovala in ilu­strirala pesniško zbirko Subiluzija pisatelja Žiga X-a Gombača. V teoretičnem delu sem raziskovala odnos med ilustracijo in besedilom v poeziji in katere ilustracije so najbolj primerne za opisovanje abstraktnega besedila, ki se v zbirki Subiluzija pojav­lja. Naredila sem analizo treh umetniških del in na podlagi te analize utemeljila uporabo abstraktne ilustracije ob besedilu. Pri praktičnem delu diplomskega dela sem pesniško zbirko ilustrirala, razložila uporabljeno tehniko ilustracije, opisala postopek izbira motivov in raziskovala odnos med poezijo in besedilom v knjižni obliki. Pri izdelavi knjige sem obravnavala knjigo kot objekt in utemeljila svoj izbor pisave, postavitev mreže in način tiska in vezanja knjige.In my thesis, I designed and illustrated the poetry collection Subiluzija by the author Žiga X Gombač. In the theoretical part, I researched the relationship between illustration and text in poetry and defined the illustration style is most suitable for describing the abstract content that appears in the poetry collection Subiluzija. I analysed three works of art and based on this analysis, justified the use of abstract illustration alongside the text. In the practical part of the diploma thesis, I illustrated the poetry collection, explained the illustration technique used, described the process of choosing motifs and researched the relationship between poetry and text in book form. In the book design process, I treated the book as a physical object and justified my choice of font, layout of the grid and the way the book was printed and bound

    Fatigue life prediction using multiaxial energy calculations with the mean stress effect to predict failure of linear and nonlinear elastic solids

    No full text
    AbstractAn approach is presented that enables the calculation of elastic strain energy in linear and nonlinear elastic solids during arbitrary thermomechanical load cycles. The approach uses the simple fact that the variation of both strain and complementary energies always forms a rectangular shape in stress–strain space, hence integration is no longer required to calculate the energy. Furthermore, the approach considers the mean stress effect so that predictions of fatigue damage are more realistically representative of real-life experimental observations. By doing so, a parameter has been proposed to adjust the mean stress effect. This parameter α is based on the well-known Smith–Watson–Topper energy criterion, but allows consideration of other arbitrary mean stress effects, e.g. the Bergmann type criterion.The approach has then been incorporated into a numerical method which can be applied to uniaxial and multiaxial, proportional and non-proportional loadings to predict fatigue damage. The end result of the method is the cyclic evolution of accumulated damage. Numerical examples show how the method presented in this paper could be applied to a nonlinear elastic material

    This article presents ethnographical research of mountain the Mala gora (Small Mountain) located in southern Slovenia in the vicinity of Ribnica, Dobrepolje, Velike Lašče and Kočevje. Local legends and myths are preserved about the mythical landscape of Mala gora, which can be connected with ideas such as the world axis, perceptions of connections with the underworld and the main Slavic myth. Author presents new findings related to Perun and Mokosh, which are preserved in local names as Makoše village, water spring Perin and various supernatural beings connected with these perceptions. Folk beliefs that are connected with this landscape can be also compared to pre-Slavic myths and beliefs of Mother Earth

    Critical assessment of the criminal offence of bigamy - the problem of too broadly defined legal elements of the offence and other related anomalies

    No full text
    Pričujoče magistrsko diplomsko delo predstavlja kritično oceno kaznivega dejanja dvojne zakonske zveze, kakor ga ureja slovenska kazenska zakonodaja. Avtor analizira pravno normo in ob tem prepoznava njene pomanjkljivosti, tako nomotehnične kot tudi vsebinske narave. Posveti se težavam pri identificiranju pravne dobrine, ki naj bi jo inkriminacija varovala, premajhni jasnosti zakonskega besedila, ki pride do izraza zlasti v situacijah z mednarodnim elementom, ter dvomu v legitimnost inkriminacije. Avtor predstavi različne poglede, ki se v teoriji pojavljajo glede pravne dobrine, ter jih kritično ovrednoti. Nadalje se posveti analizi teoretičnih konstruktov poligamnih zakonskih zvez z mednarodnim elementom, ter na podlagi tega postavi tezo o nacionalni omejenosti kazenskopravne dobrine, ki sicer iz samega zakonskega besedila ni zadostno razvidna. Na podlagi vsega ugotovljenega avtor ovrednoti tudi legitimnost inkriminacije z uporabo meril, ki so se za ta namen razvili v domači in tuji kazenskopravni teoriji in sodni praksi. Končni del magistrskega diplomskega dela obsega avtorjeve konkretne predloge spremembe inkriminacije, do katerih je prišel preko svojih ugotovitev.The present master\u27s thesis is a critical assessment of the criminal offence of bigamy in the Slovenian Criminal code. The author analyses the legal norm and identifies its weaknesses, both nomotechnical and substantive. He addresses the difficulties in identifying the legal good that the incrimination is supposed to protect, the lack of clarity of the legal text, which is especially evident in situations with a foreign element, and the doubt about the legitimacy of the incrimination. The author presents the various views that emerge in theory regarding the legal good and critically evaluates them. He further focuses on the analysis of theoretical constructs of polygamous marriages with a foreign element, and on this basis puts forward a thesis on the national limitation of the criminal good, which is otherwise not sufficiently evident from the legal text itself. Based on all the above, the author also evaluates the legitimacy of the incrimination using the criteria that have been developed for this purpose in domestic and foreign criminal law theory and case law. The final part of the master\u27s thesis contains the author\u27s concrete proposals for changing the legal norm, which he came to through his findings
