background : cardiac arrest is a condition in which the heart is completely stopped and is not pumping any blood. although most cardiac arrest cases are reported from homes or hospitals, about 20% occur in public areas. therefore, these areas need to be investigated in terms of cardiac arrest incidence so that places of high incidence can be identi-fied and cardiac rehabilitation defibrillators...

BACKGROUND Although safe motherhood strategies recommend that women seek timely care from health facilities for obstetric complications, few studies have described facility availability of emergency obstetric care (EmOC). We sought to describe and compare availability and readiness to provide EmOC among public and private health facilities commonly visited for pregnancy-related complications in...

Recently, location data regarding the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) in South Korea was released to the public. This study investigated the spatial patterns of TRIs and releases of toxic substances in all 230 local governments in South Korea to determine whether spatial clusters relevant to the siting of noxious facilities occur. In addition, we employed spatial regression modeling to determine ...

in this paper, a facility location problem of distribution systems, as one of the important and strategic issues in supply chain management, has been studied in a three-level supply chain under a stochastic condition. for this purpose, a two-stage mathematic model has been proposed for the location-allocation problem of distribution systems with regard to backup facilities for disrupting wareho...

Given that multiple regions have their own development speeds of supply and demand for public sports facilities, a dynamic supply and demand control model of multiple regional public sports facilities is built in this paper. With the range of residents' income increases and the public sports facilities supply investment as the control variables, we established a unified construction controlling...

The objective of this study is to evaluate the levels of emergency obstetrics care (EOC) signal functions in health facilities in a developing setting with high maternal morbidity and mortality indices and to determine if there are differences between public and private health facilities in terms of availability of these signal functions. A survey of health facilities was carried out in six of ...

INTRODUCTION Sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing a rapid rise in the burden of non-communicable diseases in both urban and rural areas. Data on health system preparedness to manage hypertension and other non-communicable diseases remains scarce. This study aimed to assess the preparedness of lower-level health facilities for outpatient primary care of hypertension in Tanzania. METHODS This stu...

This study focuses on establishing adequate public healthcare centers to reduce disease spread and untimely death of human lives in Adama City, Ethiopia. There is considerable evidence, owing poor geographical accessibility, the primary facility not reaching majority population developing nations. case has been carried out identify prioritize suitable areas develop using a Geographic Informatio...

Services provided by public facilities are essential to people’s lives and are closely associated with human mobility. Traditionally, public facility access characteristics, such as accessibility, equity issues and service areas, are investigated mainly based on static data (census data, travel surveys and particular records, such as medical records). Currently, the advent of big data offers an...
