Striving to be resilient: What concepts, approaches and practices should be incorporated in resilience management guidelines?

The concepts, approaches and practices were reviewed and, when deemed necessary, rephrased to ensure that each item provides a brief description of only one factor, is standalone, consolidated, generalisable as much as possible and consistent;( Data was later cleaned, presented, categorized.

Study of efficiency of USAR operations with assistive technologies.

Simulation

Supporting collaborative sense-making in emergency management through geo-visualization.

The design and implementation of system prototypes went through a two- phased iterative process that included technical system implementation, system evaluation, and system function improvement.

Supporting synthesis in geovisualization.

From video recordings we identified and coded actions that participants undertook to complete the synthesis task

Task force deployment for big events

The basic modelling idea is the following: The location of a task force unit can be specified by its grid rectangle. For each feasible location of a task force unit, it can then be specified in advance which grid rectangles can be accessed within a predefined response time from that location being able to take into account constructional barriers, for instance. Mathematically, a binary parameter dpqrs equal to one indicates that grid rectangle (r, s) can be reached from location (p,q) within a certain amount of response time and a value zero indicates that (r, s) cannot be reached from (p,q). Fig. 3 illustrates this idea. Note that for the applicability of the models, it does not matter whether the response time is defined to be the time of the moment of detection of the incident or the time from the moment the alarm call reaches emergency personnel. Depending on the event area, the access area may be very compact (if, for instance, the event area is a meadow, the access area might be a square) or not (if, for instance, the event area is in the inner city, the access area might be along the street network). Both situations can be represented by parameters dpqrs without problems. More mathematical formulas, diagrams and several maps are included in the article, for more information on the visual material please consult the article.

Teaching Critical Management Skills to Senior Nursing Students: Videotaped or Interactive Hands-On Instruction?

Analysis of variance followed by a Tukey test was used to compare the OSCE scores for the control, video, and interactive groups. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS.Interrater and interstation reliability were computed using a Generalizability Theory analysis

Independent variables: domain expertise and experience from crisis managementDependent variable [to analyze]: team coordination in the simulated environment

Team regulation in a simulated medical emergency: An in-depth analysis of cognitive, metacognitive, and affective processes.

Medical Expert Checklist and Ottawa Crisis Management Skills Global Rating Scale. Separate analysis of team leader and team members.

Testing a methodology to improve organizational learning about crisis communication by public organizations.

Assumption: Different analysis methods for the different data collection methods, mostly content analysis / summary

The effect of a simulation-based training intervention on the performance of established critical care unit teams.

Each simulation was recorded and independently rated by three blinded expert assessors using a structured rating tool with technical and behavioral components. Participants were surveyed 3 months later.
