The challenges in defining and measuring diagnostic error.

Challenges and Defining of Four Generations in Medical Laboratories

Many of the conflicts occurring in the Medical Labs could be directly linked to the presence of multiple generations. There have been three generations in the workplace at any given time. We are at a unique time where there are four generations all coexisting in the labs. The article describes generalized behaviors of each generation and the correlation of these unique trails on medical lab pro...

On Defining African Philosophy: History, Challenges, and Perspectives

Measuring the performances of Medical Diagnostic Laboratories based on interval efficiencies

The classic data envelopment analysis (DEA) models have overlooked the intermediate products, internal interactions and the absence of data certainty; and deal with analyzing the network within the “Black Box” mode. This results in the loss of important information and at times a considerable modification occurs in efficiency results. In this paper, a Three-stage network model is considered wit...

Challenges and Barriers to the Interaction of High Councils of Health with the Ministry of Health and Medical Education in Iran: A Qualitative Study

Introduction: Human error plays a significant role in the occurrence of industrial accidents. Displacement and unloading operations are operations in which the occurrence of human error may lead to plenty of human and financial losses. The present study aimed to investigate the possibility of human error occurrence in overhead crane operators in a Steel Company in Hormozgan, Iran. Material & Me...

Adaptive neural control of nonlinear fractional order multi- agent systems in the presence of error constraintion

In this paper, the problem of fractional order multi-agent tracking control problem is considered. External disturbances, uncertainties, error constraints, transient response suitability and desirable response tracking problems are the challenges in this study. Because of these problems and challenges, an adaptive control and neural estimator approaches are used in this study. In the first part...
