How to optimize tuberculosis case finding: explorations for Indonesia with a health system model
BACKGROUND A mathematical model was designed to explore the impact of three strategies for better tuberculosis case finding. Strategies included: (1) reducing the number of tuberculosis patients who do not seek care; (2) reducing diagnostic delay; and (3) engaging non-DOTS providers in the referral of tuberculosis suspects to DOTS services in the Indonesian health system context. The impact of ...
متن کاملHealth seeking behaviour, health system experience and tuberculosis case finding in Gambians with cough
BACKGROUND Studies in Africa investigating health-seeking behaviour by interviewing tuberculosis patients have revealed patient knowledge issues and significant delays to diagnosis. We aimed to study health-seeking behaviour and experience of those with cough in The Gambia and to identify whether they had tuberculosis. METHODS During a round of a population under 3-monthly demographic surveil...
متن کاملA New Mathematical Model To Optimize A Green Gas Network: A Case Study
Global warming created by large scale emissions of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) are a worldwide concern. Due to this, the issue of green gas network has required more attention in the last decades. Here, we address the GHG-based problem that arises in a gas network where gas flow is transferred from the Town Board Station (TBS) to consumers by pipeline systems. Given this environment, an optimization...

Introduction The performance management is very important in order to reach the outcomes and outcomes expected from public organizations as well as to meet the public and public stakeholders in the face of the costs of public resources, and on this basis, this research deals with the formulation of performance management patterns in health and health systems method of work: this study is practi...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model to Optimize Allocation Sequence in Dispatching Problem
Truck-Shovel fleet, as the most common transportation system in open-pit mines, has a significant part of mining costs, for which optimal management can lead to substantial cost reductions. Among the available dispatch mathematical models, the multi-stage approach is well suited for allocating trucks to respected shovels in a dynamic dispatching program. However, with this kind of modeling sequ...
