Pressure ulcers (PUs) are among the most common harms experienced by patients in health care facilities. Despite the existence of evidence-based guidelines and protocols for PU prevention and treatment, the sustained success in reducing the development of PUs is elusive. The purpose of this article is to describe how the Translating Research Into Practice (TRIP) model was used to support implementation of a care management solution (i.e., the Daily Project) aimed at preventing PUs. Using a case study approach, the development and implementation of the Daily Project is described in relation to the TRIP model. Initial success was evidenced by a 34% reduction in PU rates and an 86% reduction in missed patient turns 3 months postimplementation of the Daily intervention. Based on our experiences, the TRIP model successfully can assist with the implementation and diffusion of a tool that addresses a complex clinical issue such as PU prevention and treatment.

Grocery Shopping Under Simplified Marginal Value Theorem Predictions.

Hum Nat

January 2025

Institute of Psychology, Faculty of Life Sciences / Fakultät für Lebenswissenschaften, Technische Universität Braunschweig, Braunschweig, Germany.

This study examined whether supermarkets can be considered patches in the marginal value theorem (MVT) sense despite their particular features and whether they are models of human food foraging in resource-dense conditions. On the basis of the MVT, the quantitative relationship between gains in the Euro and patch residence time was modeled as an exponential growth function toward an upper asymptote, allowing the choice of an optimal strategy under diminishing returns. N = 61 participants were interviewed about their current shopping trip and contextual variables at a German supermarket and provided data to estimate relevant model parameters.

This study addresses the imperative need for an updated approach that incorporates evolving psychological insights and economic theories to better understand decision-making processes in the tourism sector. By integrating the bandwagon effect with the theory of planned behavior (TPB), the study aims to gain deeper insights into the intention-forming processes of American millennials during the pre-trip stage when considering a visit to Thailand. The research amalgamates principles from behavioral economics and traditional psychological theory within the dual-process framework, providing a comprehensive understanding of how American millennials determine their visit intention.

Advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage systems dynamic modelling: Impact of the heat storage device.

Heliyon

January 2025

IFP Energies nouvelles, 1 et 4 avenue de Bois Préau, 92852, Rueil-Malmaison, France.

Advanced Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (AACAES) is a technology for storing energy in thermomechanical form. This technology involves several equipment such as compressors, turbines, heat storage capacities, air coolers, caverns, etc. During charging or discharging, the heat storage and especially the cavern will induce transient behavior of operating points, notably temperature, pressure, and volume flow.
