WSES guidelines for management of Clostridium difficile infection in surgical patients
In the last two decades there have been dramatic changes in the epidemiology of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), with increases in incidence and severity of disease in many countries worldwide. The incidence of CDI has also increased in surgical patients. Optimization of management of C difficile, has therefore become increasingly urgent. An international multidisciplinary panel of experts prepared evidenced-based World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) guidelines for management of CDI in surgical patients.Peer reviewe
The Small School: A Case Study of School Education
Krátce po zahájenĂ reformy základnĂho vzdÄ›lávánĂ v ÄŚeskĂ© republice v roce 2007 jsme za pouĹľitĂ strategie pĹ™ĂpadovĂ© studie zkoumali vyuÄŤovánĂ, uÄŤenĂ a pedagogickĂ© Ĺ™ĂzenĂ v konkrĂ©tnĂ základnà škole. Pro popis vzdÄ›lávánĂ ve škole jsme uĹľĂvali kvalitativnĂ i kvantitativnĂ metody sbÄ›ru dat – pĹ™edevšĂm dotazovánĂ, pozorovánĂ vĂ˝uky a analĂ˝zu dokumentĹŻ. Za pouĹľitĂ kvalitativnĂch postupĹŻ analĂ˝zy dat jsme nastĂnili obraz zaměřujĂcĂ pozornost pĹ™edevšĂm na vĂ˝voj školy v poslednĂch letech a na strukturnĂ determinanty jejĂ práce, jako jsou velikost školy a koexistence primárnĂho a nižšĂho sekundárnĂho stupnÄ›. VĂ˝sledky studie zachycujĂ obraz školnĂho vzdÄ›lávánĂ na počátku kurikulárnĂ reformy a souÄŤasnÄ› sloužà pro konkretizaci plánĹŻ následujĂcĂch pĹ™ĂpadovĂ˝ch studiĂ dalšĂch škol.A major educational reform of the primary and lower secondary schools started in the Czech Republic in 2007.

Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to describe the educational processes in the school – predominantly questioning, observation, and documentary analysis. Using qualitative data analysis we have sketched a narrative that highlights the role of structural factors– the small size of the school, the co-existence of primary and lower secondary schools within one organisation, as well as its unique history. The research results describe a case of schooling at the very beginning of educational reform, and guide the design of our next case studies of schools
