Since July 2010, all the shops and services in the country are required to keep available for consultation with clients the Code of Consumer Protection, in a conspicuous and easily accessible. The study will classify the probable frauds committed by eating establishments and identifying the penalties that should be imposed on the author in case of noncompliance with the law. Will be checked also the possible use of the Code of Criminal Procedure, Law No. 12.403, of May 4, 2011 amending the provisions of Decree-Law No. 3,689, of October 3, 1941, relating to procedural arrest, bail, temporary freedom and other precautionary measures beyond the application of adequate alternative measures that guide the ways to prevent and deter these crimes, increasing their effectiveness in protecting the consumer. It is also necessary to apply the Criminal Code against any illegal practices committed by entrepreneurs in this sector, that hurt consumer relations and thus identify the standards applicable to food establishments that may charge penalties when these entrepreneurs are not observed / Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo demonstrar que o Código Penal e o Código de Defesa do Consumidor (Lei 8.078/90) são por muitas vezes ignorados por proprietários, funcionários e clientes de empreendimentos gastronômicos. Desde julho de 2010, todos os estabelecimentos comerciais e de prestação de serviços do país estão obrigados a manter disponíveis para a consulta dos seus clientes o Código de Defesa do Consumidor, em local visível e de fácil acesso. O estudo irá classificar as prováveis fraudes cometidas por estabelecimentos de alimentação e identificar as penas que devem ser impostas ao autor no caso de descumprimento da lei. Será verificada também a possível utilização do Código de Processo Penal, da Lei nº 12.403, de 4 de maio de 2011 que altera dispositivos do Decreto-Lei nº 3.689, de 3 de outubro de 1941, relativos à prisão processual, fiança, liberdade provisória e demais medidas cautelares além da aplicação das medidas alternativas adequadas, que norteiam os caminhos para evitar e deter estes crimes, alcançando sua eficácia na proteção do consumidor. É necessário também aplicar o Código Penal contra eventuais práticas ilegais cometidas pelos empresários desse setor, que ferem as relações de consumo e assim identificar as normas aplicáveis aos estabelecimentos de alimentação que podem imputar sanções penais aos empreendedores quando tais não forem observadas

Bakgrund: Tidigare forskning visar på en stressig arbetsmiljö för sjuksköterskor med flera komplexa arbetsuppgifter. Behovet av att delegera arbetsuppgifter ökar i och med detta och kraven på att delegera patientsäkert beskrivs som centralt. Den tidigare forskningen ger ingen klar bild över vem som har vilket ansvar i delegeringsfrågan. Syfte: Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka sjuksköterskors ansvar vid delegering av hälso- och sjukvårdsinsatser i kommunal verksamhet. Metod: Studien följer en kvalitativ ansats med en innehållsanalys. Insamlingen av data skedde via inspelade semistrukturerade intervjuer. För examensarbetet blev sex sjuksköterskor intervjuade. Resultat: Tre kategorier utformades av resultatet: ansvar gentemot patienten vid delegering, ansvar under delegeringstillfället och ansvar efter utförd delegering. Gemensamt hade informanterna ett standardiserat – webbaserad – delegeringsrutin. Dock fanns det lite till ingen uppföljning på delegeringar. Slutsats: delegeringsprocessen är komplex med oklar ansvarsbild. Sjuksköterskan ansvarar för att patienten i slutänden får god och säker vård även om det är helg, kväll eller sjukdomsfall i personalgruppen. / Background: Previous studies show a stressful work environment for nurses with complex job assignments. The demand to delegate job assignments is increasing as an aftermath and the requirement to delegate job assignments with patient safety in mind is described as a central factor. The previous studies gave no clear image of who has the responsibility in delegations. Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the registered nurses’ experiences of responsibility during delegations. Method: The study has a qualitative approach and is assembled in content analysis. Data has been collected through semi structured interviews. For the study six nurses have been interviewed. Result: The manifested results formed up in three categories: responsibility towards patients when delegating, responsibility during the delegation and responsibility after the delegation. The informants had in common that they were following a standardized web-based delegation routine. Though there was slight to no follow up on the delegations. Conclusion: The delegation process is complex with unclear responsibility. The nurse is responsible for ensuring that the patient receives good and safe care in the end, even if it is weekend, evening or illness in the staff group.

Com o advento da terapia antiretroviral houve um aumento significativo na sobrevida e qualidade de vida dos portadores do HIV/aids. Esta nova realidade traz novas possibilidades de conviver com a aids, sendo a sorodiscordância uma delas. Este estudo teve como finalidade descrever e analisar o impacto da sorodiscordância na vida afetivo-sexual de portadores do HIV/aids que convivem com parceria heterossexual com status sorológico discordante. Como referencial teórico utilizou-se o conceito da vulnerabilidade. O local de estudo foi o ambulatório especializado no atendimento do HIV/aids do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Ribeirão Preto-SP. Os dados foram coletados através de entrevista individual gravada e organizados e analisados com base na Análise de Prosa de André (1983). A partir dos dados emergiram nove temas: A percepção da invulnerabilidade, A descoberta da soropositividade ao HIV, Via de Infecção, Revelação do diagnóstico para o parceiro, A sexualidade, Vulnerabilidade da parceria sexual, Uso do preservativo, Saúde Sexual e Reprodutiva, A convivência. Os casais sorodiscordantes enfrentam inúmeros desafios após a descoberta de soropositividade em um dos parceiros, precisando desenvolver estratégias para o manejo de dificuldades para a vivência da sexualidade, para a manutenção do sexo seguro até a convivência com o parceiro soronegativo. Estas dificuldades não são de responsabilidade exclusiva do casal, cabendo aos profissionais de saúde assumirem a sua responsabilidade social no enfrentamento destes desafios impostos pela sorodiscordância. Ficou evidente que a necessidade de acolher também o parceiro soronegativo no atendimento e que os casais sorodiscordantes merecem atenção específica dos serviços de saúde. A falta de serviços de saúde específicos a casais sorodiscordantes é um dos fatores que aumenta a vulnerabilidade do parceiro soronegativo, quando este não é evidenciado no atendimento e quando as questões trazidas pela sorodiscordância não são abordadas adequadamente. Apontamos a necessidade de alternativas assistenciais, promovendo uma mudança na prática assistencial vigente, centrada no modelo biológico. A assistência a estes indivíduos deve ser realizada por equipes interdisciplinares que contemple os aspectos da dimensão afetivo-sexual trazidos pela sorodiscordância, sendo necessária capacitação e sensibilização dos profissionais de saúde envolvidos no atendimento. A equipe de enfermagem ocupa um importante papel na assistência ao portador do HIV/aids e suas ações devem transcender os aspectos clínicos e terapêuticos, incluindo a sexualidade, a prevenção e manutenção de sexo seguro, que se apresentam como expressivos componentes de risco entre parceiros sorodiscordantes. / The appearance of antiretroviral therapy brought about a significant increase in the survival and quality of life of HIV/aids patients. This new reality entails new possibilities for living with aids, one of which is serodiscordance. This study aimed to describe and analyze the impact of serodiscordance on the affective and sexual life of HIV/aids patients whose heterosexual partner has a different HIV status. The concept of vulnerability was used as a theoretical reference framework. This study was carried out at the specialized HIV/aids care clinic of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto Medical School Hospital das Clínicas, Brazil. Data were collected through individual interviews, which were recorded. Data organization and analysis was based on Prose Analysis by André (1983), which gave rise to nine themes: perception of the invulnerability, the discovery of HIV seropositivity, infection way, revealing the diagnosis, sexuality in mixed-status couples after discovering HIV/aids infection, vulnerability of the seronegative partner, use the condom; reproductive health, relationship. After discovering seropositivity in one of the partners, mixed-status couples face countless challenges and need to develop coping strategies for difficulties related to sexual activities, maintaining safe sex and living with a seronegative partner. Not only the couple is responsible for these difficulties. Health professionals should assume their social responsibility in facing the challenges imposed by serodiscordance. We observed that seronegative partners have to be included in care activities, and that mixed-status couples deserve specific attention from health services. The lack of specific health services for mixed-status couples is one of the factors responsible for increased vulnerability of the seronegative partner, when (s)he does not appear in care and no adequate treatment is given to serodiscordance-related issues. We point towards the need for care alternatives with a view to promoting a change in current care practices, which focus on the biological model. Care for these persons has to be realized by interdisciplary teams and consider the affective and sexual aspects caused by serodiscordance, which leads to the need for increased training and awareness of the health professionals involved. The nursing team plays an important role in HIV/aids care and its actions have to go beyond clinical and therapeutic aspects and including sexuality, prevention and safe sex maintenance, which reveal to be important risk components in mixed-status couples.

This thesis develops an advanced battery monitoring and control system based on the electrochemical principles that govern lithium-ion battery dynamics. This work is motivated by the need of having safer and better energy storage systems for all kind of applications, from small scale portable electronics to large scale renewable energy storage. In this context, lithium-ion batteries have become the enabling technology for energy autonomy in appliances (e.g. mobile phone, electric vehicle) and energy self-consumption in households. However, batteries are oversized and pricey, might be unsafe, are slow to charge and may not equalize the lifetime of the application they are intended to power. This work tackles these different issues.This document first introduces the general context of the battery management problem, as well as the particular issues that arise when modeling, supervising and controlling the battery short-term and long-term operation. Different solutions coming from the literature are reviewed, and several standard tools borrowed from control theory are exposed. Then, starting by well-known contributions in electrochemical modeling, we proceed to develop reduced-order models for the battery operation including degradation mechanisms, that are highly descriptive of the real phenomena taking place. This modeling framework is the cornerstone of all the monitoring and control development that follows.Next, we derive a battery diagnosis system with a twofold objective. First, indicators for internal faults affecting the battery state-of-health are obtained. Secondly, detection and isolation of sensor faults is achieved. Both tasks rely on state observers designed from electrochemical models to perform state estimation and residual generation. Whereas the former solution resorts to system identification techniques for health monitoring, the latter solution exploits fault diagnosis for instrumentation assessment.We then develop a feedback battery charge strategy able to push in performance while accounting for constraints associated to battery degradation. The fast and safe charging capabilities of the proposed approach are ultimately validated through long-term cycling experiments. This approach outperforms widely used commercial charging strategies in terms of both charging speed and degradation.The main contribution of this thesis is the exploitation of first principles models to develop battery management strategies towards improving safety, charging time and lifetime of battery systems without jeopardizing performance. The obtained results show that system and control theory offer opportunities to improve battery operation, aside from the material sciences contributions to this field. / Doctorat en Sciences de l'ingénieur et technologie / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Gun violence on college campuses has gained the attention of campus leaders, leading to an active shooter policy and procedure development and implementation. There was little awareness within the campus leadership of a college in the Southeast United States on the college's active shooter policy and procedures. Guided by Coomb's crisis management plan model, the purpose of this case study was to explore how information was provided to students, faculty, and staff regarding how to respond to an active shooter on campus. Purposeful sampling was used to identify 16 participants (6 students, 5 faculty, and 5 administrator/staff) who were interviewed in person. Data analysis included content analysis for the documents and open and axial coding for the interview data, followed by identification of emergent themes. The outcomes included significant variations and inconsistencies among students, faculty, and staff regarding awareness and understanding of how to respond to an active shooter crisis. Overall, students demonstrated the least awareness and understanding. Based on the findings, a project was developed consisting of recommendations to augment the current active shooter procedures and to develop a comprehensive active shooter policy. The results of the study could promote increased awareness, understanding, and preparation for students and employees of technical and community colleges regarding an active shooter policy and procedures, thus increasing safety and confidence on campus.

Thesis (LLM. (Development and Management)) -- University of Limpopo, 2012 / Occupational health, safety and wellbeing of employees is an important factor in the socioeconomic development of a country hence the need for South Africa as a developmental state, to give priority to the health and safety of employees in the country as employees are key to socio-economic development. The right to an environment that is not detrimental to the health and wellbeing of employees is also entrenched in the Constitution of the Republic making it a fundamental right which should be enjoyed by all. Laws related to occupational health and safety have been enacted in South Africa with a view to, on the one hand, prevent occupational injuries, diseases or deaths and on the other hand to provide compensation where such occurs. This study seeks to determine which of the laws are applicable, whether they are reasonable when compared to the constitutional requirements and South Africa’s obligations as a member of the international community. Comparisons are also made with other countries and recommendations made for the South African government to adequately ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of employees in the country.
