Socio-technical systems (STS) analysis has provided us with a powerful framework with which to analyse the reasons behind the poor acceptability, uptake and performance of many information or communication technology systems (ICT).
13 14 15 16 Immunochemical tests specific for faecal human haemoglobin have largely replaced the guaiac based tests used in early trials, on the basis of improved acceptability and performance.
While excitement abounds for wireless technologies to support healthcare delivery, especially in developing settings, few studies have provided evidence of feasibility, acceptability, and performance [ 7].
However, laboratory studies do not necessarily replicate 'in-use' conditions and further tests are required to assess the usability, acceptability and relative performance of the Nanoclave Cabinet when used in situ.
Furthermore, there is little information from the low resource setting on the acceptability of use, methodology of implementation, and performance, of electronic tracking methods, both proximity sensors and GPS locators.
Finally, recommendations relevant to assuring the continuing acceptability of the performance of radionuclide calibrators are set by European Commission Radiation Protection document n° 162 "Criteria for Acceptability of Medical Radiological Equipment used in Diagnostic Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Radiotherapy" (EU Commission & Radiation Protection n. 162).
Data on patient acceptability were collected during and after performance of the CGA and either returned to the GP directly or sent to the study coordinator by post.
This mixed methods study was designed to explore the acceptability and impact of feedback of team performance data to primary care interdisciplinary teams.
Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data on the training's usefulness, e.g. the population reached, self-reported benefits or achievements, and acceptability, e.g. the performance of the intervention according to protocol and participants' exposure to and engagement in the training.
He is appearing to forward the acceptability and validity of Sharia law in this country".
