A computerized version of "Noo-Khor-Arn" `May I read?', a paper-based screening test for Thai children at risk with Learning Disability (LD), was developed and some core ideas of development were given in details. Six test categories with 23 subtests were conducted on 110 Thai children aged between 7-12 years old (Mean = 7.94, SD = 1.45), divided into 50 LD and 60 Typically Developing (TD) children to determine most relevant test categories and subtests for classifying between the groups. Two-factor balanced Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed that a computerized version shown a significant difference between TD and LD groups in the tasks related to linguistics, decoding, and naming. These tasks were Phonological Awareness (PA), Morphological Awareness (MA), Decoding (DEC), and Rapid Naming (RN), respectively. The rest of the test categories showed non-significant factors between TD and LD. Not only the results can be used for classification but also for streamlining the test categories and subtests, to shorten the test tool.Clinical relevance- The subtests related to linguistics and decoding aspects showed promising results in screening children at risk for learning disabilities.

Background: Clinical feedback is often lacking in prehospital care, and while performance data is increasingly available to clinical and operational leadership, it is seldom made available to care providers themselves. In this study, we investigate the impact of a simple intervention consisting of the provision of monthly feedback reports via email to emergency medical dispatch nurses in three Swedish regions.
Method: Individualised reports consisting of 14 measures divided into descriptive (eg, priority-setting and call times), process (eg, dispatch times and documentation completeness) and outcome (eg, over/under triage rate) categories were developed with staff and management input.
