BACKGROUND: Telemonitoring and telerehabilitation can support home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) and benefit patients with lung diseases or COVID-19. This study aimed to (1) identify which telemonitoring and telerehabilitation interventions (e.g. videoconferencing) are used to provide telehealth …

Understanding sludge rheology and optimizing equipment performance is crucial for energy efficiency in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This study examined sludge rheology after thermal hydrolysis pretreatment (THP) at 60, 80, and 120 ◦C for 2 h, followed by anaerobic digestion (AD) at 37 ◦C for …

This thesis aimed to understand how Tensar’s current design methods work, in relation to the calculation of working platforms. Thereafter, a full breakdown of each design method’s limitations was addressed, with this thesis focusing on the problem of stratification, in the T-value method. This limitation …

Dit rapport onderzoekt een methode om natuurdoeltypen te koppelen aan plangebieden op basis van gebiedskenmerken. Er is een groeiende vraag naar de realisatie van natuurdoeltypen, onder andere door de naderende deadline van de kaderrichtlijn water. Om de Nederlandse wateren ecologisch gezond en chemisch …

Dit verkennende onderzoek focust zich op de inclusiebeleving van studenten met een migratieachtergrond aan Hogeschool Leiden. In het schooljaar 2020/2021 had een kwart van de afstudeerders in het Nederlandse hoger onderwijs een migratieachtergrond, wat de relevantie van inclusie binnen onderwijsinstellingen …

In januari 2023 is er door Facilitaire Zaken (FZ) van de Haagse Hogeschool, met andere betrokken faculteiten en kenniscentra, het huidige Energietransitie-plan opgeleverd. In dit plan zijn er 3 scopes gedefinieerd, die ieder op een ander onderdeel van verduurzamen betreft. In dit onderzoek wordt er gefocust …

Background In a global effort to design better hospital buildings for people and organizations, some design principles are still surrounded by great mystery. The aim of this online study was to compare anxiety in an existing single-bed inpatient hospital room with three redesigns of this room in accordance …

Aims: To investigate the impact of consecutive perioperative care transitions on in-hospital recovery of patients who had primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) over an 11-year period. Methods: This observational cohort study used electronic health record data from all patients undergoing preoperative …

Pain in critically ill adults with burns should be assessed using structured pain behavioural observation measures. This study tested the clinimetric qualities and usability of the behaviour pain scale (BPS) and the critical-care pain observation tool (CPOT) in this population. This prospective observational …

Source Segregation (SS) is a novel strategy in dairy housing that can reduce emissions and separate organic matter and nutrients more efficiently than traditional slurry solid-liquid separation. The anaerobic digestion (AD) methane yield of the SS fractions, however, is unknown. We aimed at unveiling …
