Intention-oriented process mining is based on the belief that the fundamental nature of processes is mostly intentional (unlike activity-oriented process) and aims at discovering strategy and intentional process models from event-logs recorded during the process enactment. In this paper, we present an application of intention-oriented process mining for the domain of incident management of an I...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have noted that a past suicide attempt (SA) predicts a future SA, but few studies have reported whether previous SAs that predict a future attempt differ from those that do not. Knowing which characteristics of previous SAs predict future attempts would assist in evaluating adolescents at risk of attempt repetition. This longitudinal study of an unreferred sample exa...

Background: Blood pressure (BP) control in patients with diabetes mellitus is difficult to achieve and current patterns are suboptimal. Given increasing problems with access to primary care physicians, community pharmacists and nurses are well positioned to identify and observe these patients. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of a community-based multidisciplinary intervention on BP c...

Editor—The sacking of Lundberg as JAMA’s editor is a very sad event for editorial freedom in general and for medical journals world wide in particular. This disgraceful incident has shown that neither size nor success gives any guarantee for editorial freedom— not even the two combined. The fight for integrity must go on continuously in every editorial office every day. Lundberg has been an exa...

Virtual environment induces simulator sickness effect for some users. The purpose of this research is to compare the simulation sickness relative with parallax affect in one-screen and three-screen HoloStage system, measured by Simulation Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ). The results show the subjects tested in three-screen has less sickness than one-screen and effect from the Oculomotor (O) more t...

Urban road traac simulators sometimes require the turn probabilities at the intersections of the network they are simulating. This report describes a method for updating the given probabilities following the occurrence of a traac incident. Taking Dial's proportional assignment as the model of driver route choice behavior, we use a variant of Dial's algorithm to assign traac to the turns of the ...

In this paper, a prediction model is presented that estimates the evacuation time in an emergency situation for hospitals. The model is generic enough to be used in various hospital settings. This model can provide incident managers with estimates of the evacuation times of different types of patients and can offer support to the managers with their resource allocation decisions in emergency si...

Incident Response and Computer Forensics are two areas with similar goals but distinct process models. While in both cases the goal is to investigate computer security incidents and contain their effects, Incident Response focusses more on restoration of normal service and Computer Forensics on the provision of evidence that can be used in a court of law. In this paper we present a common model...

When designing a decision support program for use in coordinating the response to Mass Casualty Incidents, the modelling of the health of casualties presents a significant challenge. In this paper we propose one such health model, capable of acknowledging both the uncertain and dynamic nature of casualty health. Incorporating this into a larger optimisation model capable of use in real-time and...

OBJECTIVE Patient safety may be enhanced by using reports from front-line staff of near misses and unsafe conditions to identify latent safety events. We describe paediatric emergency department (ED) near-miss events and unsafe conditions from hospital reporting systems in a 1-year observational study from hospitals participating in the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN)...
