Projektini päätavoite oli tehdä hoito-ohje jonka avulla voisi parantaa sairaalan ulkopuo-listen synnytysten turvallisuutta ja laatua. Tavoitteeni oli lisätä hoito-ohjeen avulla Lapin sairaanhoitopiirin sairaankuljetusyksikön hoitajien tietoa, säännöllisen synnytyksen sekä vastasyntyneen hoitamisesta ja tarkkailusta sairaalan ulkopuolella.
Ylä-Lapista synnyttämään tullaan Rovaniemelle Lapin keskussairaalaan, jonne pisim-millään matka voi olla 500km. Lapissa suunnittelemattoman sairaalan ulkopuolisen synnytyksen riski on korkeampi kuin muualla Suomessa. Usein synnyttäjät tulevat Ro-vaniemelle odottamaan synnytystä, mutta toisinaan synnytys käynnistyy yllättäen ja synnytyssairaalaan ehtiminen ei ole aina taattua ja synnytys voidaan joutua hoitamaan ambulanssissa. Kaikkialla Suomessa suunnittelemattomien sairaalan ulkopuolisten syn-nytysten riski on kasvanut, koska synnytyssairaaloiden määrä on keskittämisen myötä vähentynyt ja välimatkat sairaaloihin ovat pidentyneet. Säännöllinen synnytys, joka tapahtuu odottamatta sairaalan ulkopuolella, sujuu usein ongelmitta eikä komplikaatiota synny. Odottamaton tilanne voi kuitenkin luoda turvattomuuden tunnetta ja stressiä äidille, siksi hoitohenkilökunnan osaava työote on tärkeä.
Opinnäytetyö on toteutettu yhteistyössä Oulun seudun ammattikorkeakoulun ja Lapin sairaanhoitopiirin sairaankuljetusyksikön kanssa. Synnytyksen hoito-ohjetta on mahdol-lisuus käyttää muissakin Lapin sairaanhoitopiirin sairaankuljetusyksiköissä.

Title of thesis: Expect the unexpected: Guide for childbirth in an unexpected environment
Supervisors: Seija Mattila, Ulla Paananen & Minna Manninen
Term and year when the thesis was submitted: Autumn 2012
Number of pages: 34+ 3
Due to the centralization of hospitals with labor ward, distances between pregnant women and hospitals have grown causing the higher risk of unplanned deliveries outside hospitals all around Finland. In Lapland the only labor ward can be found in Central Hospital of Lapland located in Rovaniemi. For some the travel can be over 500km, giving rise to the risk of delivery outside of hospital. Sometimes delivery starts unexpectedly and reaching a hospital on time may not be possible.
This thesis provides a broad, user-friendly guide for safe delivery outside of a hospital. It increases the expertise of paramedics concerning the provision of substantial aid in ambulant labor circumstances.
The guide is based on theoretical and practical knowledge on safe child delivery and nurturing of newborn. It was made in collaboration with Oulu University of applied sciences and the Rescue Department of Lapland, Rovaniemi’s unit.

Developing a rubric to assess critical thinking in a multidisciplinary context in higher education
No full textCritical thinking (CT) is a generic attribute that is greatly valued across academic disciplines in higher education, and around the globe. It is also defined as one of the graduate attributes of higher education for the sample private university where this research was conducted, as it is perceived that CT helps the graduate to become ‘engaged citizens’ in the twenty-first century. Despite the well-documented importance of CT, its assessment remains a challenge. This study addresses this challenge through the systematic development and field-testing of a rubric for assessing critical thinking in a multidisciplinary context in higher education. A multidisciplinary group of faculty (i.e. education, nursing, medicine) from the sample university partnered with a policy research group in Canada to translate this plan into action. The development of the assessment tool followed a multi-step process including: (i) identification of the main elements of CT; (ii) choice of a rubric format; (iii) adaptation of the currently available relevant rubrics; and, (iv) field testing and establishment of the reliability of the rubric. The process resulted in the development of a holistic template, the Assessment of Critical Thinking (ACT) rubric. Two versions of the rubric have been field tested on a sample (n=59) of students drawn from different entities of the sample university. The data collected was subjected to psychometric analysis which yielded satisfactory results. This was a modest attempt to develop an assessment tool to guide multidisciplinary faculty members in teaching and assessing CT by assisting them to make decisions about the level of their students’ CT skills through a combination of numerical scores and qualitative description. It may also empower them to make self-initiated, conscious efforts to improve their classroom practice with reference to CT. The ACT rubric provides an anchoring point to start working on the daunting yet doable task of developing and fine-tuning both the assessment measures of CT and interventions to promote CT based on the assessment findings. Future research may not only provide robust evidence of the reliability and validity of the ACT rubric for a larger and varied sample but also help in making informed decisions to enhance teaching and learning of CT across entities of the sample university.

Understanding the Grooming Habit of Women in Bangladesh
No full textBrand is all about uniqueness and thus a continuous process. It is all about creating and capturing mindshare by establishing positive image in the minds of consumers. As our report was about understanding the grooming habit of women in Bangladesh, so from this report we were able to find out the positions of brands which is considered as the Brand Equity of Square Toiletries and its competitor companies. We got a clear understanding of women’s daily life personal care. Although, the habit differs from person to person, but there are some general habits that every person does, like- brushing teeth, taking shower, washing face etc. For each of these activities, the brand usage was identified. Brand usage was categorized by- “Most Often Used Brand” and “Currently Used Brand”. And then, the Brand Equity was found of Square Toiletries for personal care product categories. Here, it was identified by some of the attributes depending on the category of products. One brand was of STL and two other brands were of competitors. Respondents were asked to rank the brands in terms of those attributes. Also, we found some of the opportunities for STL where they can start operating their business. From our conducted survey we found, women use such product that STL doesn’t manufacture, like- shower gel, hair conditioner, hair serum and face cream. So STL can take these opportunities to run their business in near future. Though few of the brands were not well accepted by the users but most of them were. The brands of Square Toiletries overall holds a good impression in the minds of consumer. Some of the recommendation was also given to improve their few of the brands to capture a big portion of market share. As the day passes, STL will more improve and develop with their brands

Valmiit sairaanhoitajat ja sairaanhoitajaopiskelijat kohtaavat eettisiä ongelmatilanteita terveydenhuollon eri toimintaympäristöissä. Jotta potilaiden hyvä hoito voisi toteutua, jokaisen sairaanhoitajan tulisi tiedostaa työnsä eettiset näkökulmat ja osata tunnistaa ja ratkaista eettisiä ongelmia niitä kohdatessaan. Eettiset ongelmat voivat ratkaisemattomina aiheuttaa sairaanhoitajille eettistä stressiä. Stressin seurauksena voi olla masennusta ja voimattomuuden tunteita, jotka voivat pahimmillaan johtaa jopa alan vaihtoon.
Sairaanhoitajaopiskelijoiden kokemasta eettisestä stressistä ei ole laajamittaista tutkimustietoa, vaikka sairaanhoitajaopiskelijoiden kokemia eettisiä ongelmia ja heidän ongelmanratkaisuaan on tutkittu. Tämän opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli kartoittaa sairaanhoitajaopiskelijoiden ohjatuissa käytännön harjoitteluissa kohtaamia eettisiä ongelmia, niiden aiheuttamaa eettistä stressiä sekä stressin käsittelyyn käytettyjä keinoja.
Lähestymistavaksi valittiin laadullinen tutkimus, koska sen avulla voidaan päästä lähelle tutkimuksen kohdehenkilöitä ja tavoittaa heidän näkökulmansa tutkittavaan asiaan. Tutkimus toteutettiin ryhmässä tapahtuvana teemahaastatteluna. Kolme suomalaisen ammattikorkeakoulun sairaanhoitajaopiskelijaa osallistui haastatteluun. Haastattelusta saadun aineiston analysointiin käytettiin laadullista sisällönanalyysiä.
Haastatteluun osallistuneet opiskelijat olivat kokeneet ohjattujen käytännön harjoitteluiden aikana paljon erilaisia eettisiä ongelmia. Opiskelijoiden kuvailemissa tilanteissa korostui nimenomaan opiskelijan roolin vaikutus eettisiin tilanteisiin. Opiskelijat myös kokivat ainakin jonkin verran eettistä stressiä harjoittelujen aikana ja he olivat myös kokeneet muutamia voimakkaampia koko harjoittelun kestäneitä stressitilanteita. Opiskelijat käyttivät stressin käsittelyyn erilaisia keinoja, mutta yleisintä oli tilanteesta keskustelu joko harjoittelupaikassa tai sen ulkopuolella. Opiskelijat myös esittivät kehitysehdotuksia koskien opiskelijoiden yleistä kohtelua harjoittelupaikoissa.
Saatuja tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää sairaanhoitajaopiskelijoiden ohjattujen käytännön harjoitteluiden ohjauksen kehittämisessä, mutta koska tutkimuksen tulokset eivät suoraan ole yleistettävissä, olisi aihetta hyvä tutkia lisää tulevaisuudessa. Jatkotutkimushaasteita ovat esimerkiksi opiskelijoiden kokeman stressin voimakkuuden ja keston tutkiminen, sillä näillä voi olla merkitystä kun arvioidaan tarkemmin stressin vaikutuksia.

Title of thesis: Ethical Stress Experienced by Nursing Students in Practical Training
Supervisors: Liisa Kiviniemi and Sirpa Tölli
Term and year when thesis was submitted: Spring 2014 Number of pages: 51 + 5
Both nurses and nursing students experience ethical problems in their everyday work. It is important for nurses to be able to solve these problems since unsolved ethical problems may cause ethical stress. The stress may result in depression and feelings of powerlessness, which can ultimately lead to changing vocations. There has not been much research into ethical stress experienced by nursing students.
The objective of this study was to examine the ethical problems experienced by nursing students during practical training, ethical stress caused by the problems, and methods used for dealing with the ethical stress.
A theme-based group interview was used to collect information from three Finnish nursing students. The acquired data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.
The students had experienced many ethical problems during practical training. These problems had caused some ethical stress and there were some stress reactions, which had lasted for the whole training period. The students used different methods for dealing with stress, but the most common ones were talking with people either in the training place or elsewhere.
The results of this study can be used to improve the guidance nursing students receive during practical training. Since the findings are not generalizable to all Finnish nursing students, more research into the subject is needed.

BN-AuthProf: Benchmarking Machine Learning for Bangla Author Profiling on Social Media Texts
No full textAuthor profiling, the analysis of texts to uncover attributes such as gender and age of the author, has become essential with the widespread use of social media platforms. This paper focuses on author profiling in the Bangla language, aiming to extract valuable insights about anonymous authors based on their writing style on social media. The primary objective is to introduce and benchmark the performance of machine learning approaches on a newly created Bangla Author Profiling dataset, BN-AuthProf. The dataset comprises 30,131 social media posts from 300 authors, labeled by their age and gender. Authors\u27 identities and sensitive information were anonymized to ensure privacy. Various classical machine learning and deep learning techniques were employed to evaluate the dataset. For gender classification, the best accuracy achieved was 80% using Support Vector Machine (SVM), while a Multinomial Naive Bayes (MNB) classifier achieved the best F1 score of 0.756. For age classification, MNB attained a maximum accuracy score of 91% with an F1 score of 0.905. This research highlights the effectiveness of machine learning in gender and age classification for Bangla author profiling, with practical implications spanning marketing, security, forensic linguistics, education, and criminal investigations, considering privacy and biases.Accepted to be Published in 2024 27th International Conference on Computer and Information Technology (ICCIT
Fond of Raissa Gourevich-Kroll-De Chirico-Calza (Raissa Lork) in the Library of Humanities, Siena
No full textThe article strives to describe the fond of Raissa Calza (1897–1979) in the Library of Humanities of Siena and documents in it. For this purpose, the author has carried out the following tasks: she has studied Russian and foreign historiography on the issue; she has analyzed sources on the issue; and drawing on these, she has studied the biography of Raisa Calza; she has reviewed the archival fond and analyzed its documents. Having reviewed the historiography, the author comes to the conclusion that the fate of Raisa Calza, her creativity, and scientific work has been poorly studied, especially by Russian historians. There are few articles dedicated to the Calza collection in the Library of Humanities. Studying the sources (personal and business letters, diary, notebooks, memoirs, photographs, scientific works) associated with Raisa and her connections allows to identify their nature and main features and to supplement, clarify, and flesh out the biography of Raissa Calza. These documents are sources on more than everyday life and microhistory. They can be used in studying the history of Russian emigration, of Russian-Italian cultural relations, of archeology. The fate of Raisa Calza is interesting in itself, as a fate of a woman, an individual, amidst historical events of the 20th century. The chronological frameworks of the study coincide with the chronology of Raisa Calza’s documents preserved in the Siena’s library (1900s-1970s). The article includes an overview of the creation of the archive in the Library of Humanities of Siena and that of the Raissa Calza fond, which came into existence when she donated her documents to the Library in 1970s. The article studies the structure of the Raissa Calza fond: boxes I, VI – letters, postcards, telegrams, dairy, history of Gourevitch, Tumarkin and Frenkley families; II-IV – ‘Ostia’ containing materials on the excavations of Antic Ostia; V – various documents, boxes of photos. The author concludes that these sources should be introduces into scientific use. The collection proves that documents on Russian history are available not only in central state archives and private collections, but also in universities. It challenges historians to start researching universities libraries and archives. The article also names other foreign archives containing documents of Raissa Calza.</jats:p
Unravelling the antibacterial mechanisms of silver, copper and zinc nanoparticles incorporated on titanium bone implants
No full textBackground. The past four decades, the problem of resistant bacteria has emerged. As a result of biofilm formation of (resistant) bacteria on the implant, more implant-associated infections (IAI) occurred. This has caused an increase in orthopaedic implant revisions, causing a high burden of disease. To overcome the rising problem of resistance, many studies have focused on new antibacterial agents, such as Ag, Cu, and Zn nanoparticles (NPs) incorporated on titanium (Ti6Al4V) implants. It is known they show antibacterial effects. It is, however, unknown what causes the antibacterial effects of these metals incorporated on titanium implants. This study aims to unravel the antibacterial mechanisms of titanium implants bearing Ag, Cu or Zn NPs behind the in vitro antibacterial effects against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Methods. To obtain an implant surface bearing Ag, Cu or Zn NPs; porous Ti6Al4V implants and solid Ti6Al4Nb discs were treated by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). The PEO electrolyte consisted of calcium acetate, calcium glycerophosphate, and Ag, Cu or Zn NPs. The surface morphology was visualized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and its chemical composition by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). All implant groups contained either Ag, Cu or Zn NPs and were tested on its antibacterial leaching activity against MRSA by a zone of inhibition experiment. In addition, the antibacterial effects as a result of contact killing were examined by a direct contact assay. Porous and solid surfaces were compared to reveal the differences in their contact killing properties. Moreover, the porous implants were incubated for 2 h and 24 h. Furthermore, the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) of the implant with and without inoculation of bacteria was measured by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) for forty minutes. ROS generation after inoculation with bacteria was tested in two ways: (1) the implant was placed in a solution of bacteria PBS after which ROS generation was directly measured in 100 mM DMPO, and (2) the implant with bacteria in BHI was incubated for 2 h after which the implant was placed in 100 mM DMPO to examine ROS generation of the implant with adherent bacteria. Results. PEO processing resulted in four biofunctionalized groups: PT, PT+Ag, PT+Cu, and PT+Zn. The presence of Ag, Cu and Zn NPs was confirmed by SEM and EDS. The antibacterial leaching activity was only observed in PT+Ag. In addition, porous implants showed better contact killing properties than solid discs. All biofunctionalized groups were significantly different from a non-treated (NT) implant considering contact killing in 24 h. Moreover, ROS generation was observed in all biofunctionalized implants. However, solely PT+Cu was significantly different from a NT implant. Furthermore, the EPR results showed that bacteria generate ROS. In all biofunctionalized groups, however, ROS decreases when bacteria are added. In all groups, the ROS generation of adherent bacteria to the implants showed higher intensity than the ROS generation of bacteria in PBS in contact with the implant. Conclusion. Antibacterial surfaces incorporated with Ag NPs show most antibacterial leaching effects, attributed to the ion release of Ag. Furthermore, it is assumed that direct contact killing of Cu is a cause of ROS generation of an implant bearing Cu NPs. <br/
Peritext in Raisa Ivanchenko’s historical novel «Golden stirrups»
No full textУ статті зроблено короткий огляд вивчення проблеми паратекстуальності
як у зарубіжному, так і у вітчизняному літературознавстві. Проаналізовано основний епіграф до роману та ряд епіграфів, їх вмотивованість стосовно чотирьох
його розділів. Також розглянуто специфіку заголовочного комплексу «Золотих
стремен» завдяки типологічному зіставленню з іншими текстами культури, що
прямо і опосередковано прочитуються в романі. Підкреслюється нерозривний зв’язок елементів перитексту з основним текстом.В статье сделан краткий обзор изучения проблемы паратекстульности в
зарубежном и отечественном литературоведении. Проанализированы основной
эпиграф к роману, а также эпиграфы и их обоснованность к его четырем разделам. Рассмотрена специфика заглавного комплекса «Золотых стремян» благодаря
типологическому сопоставлению с другими текстами культуры, которые прямо
и опосредованно прочитываются в романе. Таким образом, подчеркивается нерозрывная связь элементов перитекста с основным текстом.The article gives a brief overview of the problem of partextuality in both foreign and
Ukrainian literary studies. It is noted that the author has already addressed the issue of
interconnections between elements of the frame text in historical novels, but it is worth
further elaboration.
The tasks of the article are to track the links between peritext and the main text ; to
reveal the validity of the nomination of a novel in general, and its chapters in particular; to establish the functionality of the epigraph in order to reconstruct the semantic field of
artistic work.
The general epigraph and its consistency with the title of the novel are analyzed. Due
to the typological comparison of the passages of the novel with the «Lay of Igor’s Warfare»,
the close connection of the two texts is proved, which is reflected in the title.
An open connection between the novel and other literary works of culture of this historical
period is observed in the organization of four chapters of the novel. Epigraphs to
the first and fourth sections are metonymic because they appear as part of other texts such
as «The Book of Solomon’s Wisdom» and the book of P. Tychyna’s poems «The Spring of
1942». Democritus’ expression and the folk proverb reveal as autonomous epigraphs to the
second and third chapters. The reflection of the semantic loads of epigraphs are observed
in the titles and chapter texts.
The conclusions emphasize the inextricable connection between the elements of peritext
and the main text. The multifunctionality of epigraphs in «title — epigraph — text»
system are observed, since they simultaneously appeared as a commentary on the main
text and literary reminiscence. Choosing the epigraphs to separate chapters of the novel,
the writer hints at the parallels in the history of nations, famous personalities, facts, events.
The epithet complete and interpret the main text, reveal the author’s attitude, engage in
dialogue with the reader and encourage him or her to think; extend the semantic boundaries
of the title. The analysis of text-around elements testified the metatectural connections
of the historical novel by Raisa Ivanchenko
