Verbeterborden bekeken : Gebruik van het verbeterbord, theorie en praktijk
Ahaus, C.T.B. ; Slomp, J. ; Roemeling, O.P.
2013, Article / Letter to editor (KiZ-Tijdschrift over Kwaliteit en Veiligheid in Zorg, vol. 2013, iss. februari, (2013), pp. 12-17)In veel zorgorganisaties die werken met lean methoden treffen we het verbeterbord aan. Verbeterborden inzetten is in de praktijk echter niet zo eenvoudig. De oorzaak hiervan is vaak onduidelijk. Vandaar dat de auteurs het gebruik van het verbeterbord hebben geanalyseerd vanuit de doelen van het verbeterbord. Dit gebeurt aan de hand van drie casussen.

Sequentiële Afhankelijkheden – Het Geheim van World Class Organisaties
Slomp, J.
2013, Inaugural lecture In mijn betoog ga ik eerst in op arbeidsdeling, een belangrijk concept bij de inrichting van voortbrengingssystemen. Arbeidsdeling bepaalt, voor een zeker deel, de afhankelijkheden in een organisatie. Ik zal duidelijk maken dat World Class organisaties op een speciale manier bezig zijn met afhankelijkheden. Ze zijn gericht op het creëren en ontwikkelen van sequentiële afhankelijkheden. Vervolgens ga ik in op de manier waarop ze dit doen. Tot slot zal ik kort aangeven hoe organisaties te werk kunnen gaan in hun streven om World Class te worden.

Quantitative ultrasound of the tongue and submental muscles in children and young adults
Engel-Hoek, Lenie van den ; Pillen, S. ; Groot, M. de ; Swart, B.J.M. de ; Alfen, N. van
2012, Article / Letter to editor (Muscle and Nerve, vol. 46, iss. 1, (2012), pp. 31-37)The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) to visualize oral muscles and to establish normative data for muscle thickness and echo intensity of submental and tongue muscles in healthy children and young adults. The data were compared with those of 5 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Ultrasound images from the suprahyoid region and from the surface of the tongue were made in 53 healthy subjects aged 5 to 30 years. All measurements were feasible in all subjects and patients with good reproducibility except for the mylohyoid muscle. Muscle thickness depended on height, and echo intensity depended on weight. Our findings suggest gradual involvement of oral muscles in DMD. QMUS in oral muscles is feasible in healthy children, adults and patients with DMD. These data show that it is possible to differentiate between healthy persons and patients with DMD.

Oral muscles are progressively affected in Duchenne muscular dystrophy : Implications for dysphagia treatment
Swart, B.J.M. de ; Klein, W. ; Engel-Hoek, Lenie van den ; Pillen, S. ; Hendriks, J.C.M. ; Geurts, Alexander ; Groot, M. de ; Sie, L. ; Erasmus, C.
2012, Article / Letter to editor (Journal of Neurology, vol. 260, iss. 5, (2012), pp. 1295-1303)Dysphagia is reported in advanced stages of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The population of DMD is changing due to an increasing survival. We aimed to describe the dysphagia in consecutive stages and to assess the underlying mechanisms of dysphagia in DMD, in order to develop mechanism based recommendations for safe swallowing. In this cross-sectional study, participants were divided into: early and late ambulatory stage (AS, n = 6), early non-ambulatory stage (ENAS, n = 7), and late non-ambulatory stage (LNAS, n = 11). Quantitative oral muscle ultrasound was performed to quantify echo intensity. Swallowing was assessed with a video fluoroscopic swallow study, surface electromyography (sEMG) of the submental muscle group and tongue pressure. Differences in outcome parameters among the three DMD stages were tested with analysis of variance. Oral muscles related to swallowing were progressively affected, starting in the AS with the geniohyoid muscle. Tongue (pseudo) hypertrophy was found in 70 % of patients in the ENAS and LNAS. Oral phase problems and post-swallow residue were observed, mostly in the LNAS with solid food. sEMG and tongue pressure data of swallowing solid food revealed the lowest sEMG amplitude, the longest duration and lowest tongue pressure in the LNAS. In case of swallowing problems in DMD, based on the disturbed mechanisms of swallowing, it is suggested to (1) adjust meals in terms of less solid food, and (2) drink water after meals to clear the oropharyngeal area.

Lessons from higher education: adapting Lean Six Sigma to account for structural differences in application domains
Wiegel, V. ; Hadzialic, L. Brouwer
2015, Article / Letter to editor (International Journal of Six Sigma and Competitive Advantage, vol. 9, iss. 1, (2015), pp. 72)Lean Six Sigma is applied in a wide range of economic domains ranging from industry to services to healthcare. These are all domains that have markedly different structures. Recently a set of papers has appeared indicating that the successes in applying Lean Six Sigma to new domains such as government, healthcare and education are falling short of expectations. We discovered by exploring the case for Lean Six Sigma in higher education a set of structural variables that explain differences in application domains. These differences are relevant to the application of Lean Six Sigma in general. These differences and the extent in which Lean Six Sigma can cater for them explain some part of the successes and failures in the application of Lean Six Sigma outside its domain of origin: high volume, repetitive production.

Lean in high variety, low volume production environments: A Literature Review and Maturity Model
Buetfering, Benjamin ; Stoel, A. van der ; Sriram, Pavan Kumar ; Landeghem, Hendrik Van ; Ickerott, Ingmar ; Wiegel, V.
2016, Article in monograph or in proceedings (Conference: EurOMA 2016, pp. 11)Lean manufacturing has proven to be an efficient means improving mass production. Recently, Lean is of increasing interest for high-variety, low-volume production environments. However, little research has been done in this field. Yet, this contribution provides a systematic literature analysis in conjunction with expert interviews and qualitative data analysis not only to demonstrate the status quo of Lean in HV/LV but to develop a research agenda. In addition, a Maturity Model is developed analysing Lean implementation through a combination of tools, processes, and interoperability supporting the assessment of the application of Lean in various in HV/LV environments.

In gesprek met Chris Argyris : Wat we zeggen en wat we doen…
Schuiling, G. (Gertjan) ; Groot, M. de
2008, Article / Letter to editor (Opleiding en Ontwikkeling, (2008))Als opleiders en ontwikkelaars moeten we soms in opdracht van het management medewerkers trainen in waarden als ‘empowerment’ of ‘open en eerlijk communiceren’, terwijl het management er in de praktijk zelf niet naar handelt. We eisen dan van het management voorbeeldgedrag. Maar hoe consistent zijn we zelf eigenlijk? Hoe zorgen we ervoor dat onze cursisten of cliënten de theorie kunnen toetsen die we aan hen overdragen?

HRM in de sport: arbeidsverhoudingen en arbeidsvoorwaarden bij combinatiefunctionarissen
Ven, A.W. van de ; Groot, M. de
2013, Part of book or chapter of book (, pp. 131-139)De bijdragen in dit Liber Amicorum voor Willem de Nijs bieden een rijke bloemlezing aan inzichten in het huidige denken over de mens in de organisatie; meer specifiek vormen ze een poging de vraag te beantwoorden of het huidige onderzoek en de praktijk van Human Resource Management (HRM) vooral worden ingekleurd vanuit managementperspectief (nuttigheidsdenken), of toch ook oog heeft voor het creëren van een zinvolle werkomgeving voor medewerkers. Hoofdstuk 17: In 2007 werd door middle van de overeenkomst Bestuurlijke afspraken Impuls brede scholen, sport en cultuur een interessante functie gecreëerd in de sportsector: de combinatiefunctionaris. De naam zegt het al: de functionaris bekleedt meerdere functies en in dit geval in verschillende organisaties.
Experimental Computational Philosophy: Shedding new lights on old philosophical debates
Wiegel, V. ; Berg, Jan
2007, Article in monograph or in proceedings (Belgian/Netherlands Artificial Intelligence Conference, pp. 291-298)Philosophy can benefit from experiments performed in a laboratory for philosophical experimentation (SophoLab). To illustrate the power of Experimental Computational Philosophy, we set up and ran several experiments on a part of Harsanyi's theory on utilitarianism. Then it became clear that his theory is underspecified. We filled in the blank spots and discovered that information and its costs are key in the effectiveness of act and rule utilitarianism. We also identified three further elements that have particular influence on the effectiveness of both strands of utilitarianism: group size of agents, decision-making around uncertainty, and social culture towards particular types of actions.
Evaluating AHP as multi-stakeholder decision tool
Simons, Luuk P.A. ; Wiegel, V.
2009, Article in monograph or in proceedings (2009 IEEE International Technology Management Conference, ICE 2009)The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is increasingly used as decision support method in concurrent innovation projects with multiple stakeholders. AHP is welcomed for supporting procedural justice, which regards transparency and fairness of decisions. This is useful for policy settings, with diverse stakeholder interests, for prioritization questions with diverse criteria or for allocation of scarce resources. However, AHP's promises for procedural justice are partly grounded in its supposed numerical accuracy. We show that the numerical basis of AHP is not as unambiguous as current 'AHP standard practice' suggests. By contrast, AHP can contribute to the other criteria for procedural justice (efficiency and participation), which may explain AHP's continuing and growing popularity. We conclude that the research and practitioner community should on the one hand continue to develop AHP's procedures for full participation of all types of stakeholders, while on the other hand finding solutions to the accuracy problems.

Building blocks for artificial moral agents
Wiegel, V.
2006, Article in monograph or in proceedings (Artificial Life X: Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on the Simulation and Synthesis of Living Systems)Constructing artificial moral agents serves at least two purposes: one, better understanding of moral reasoning, and, two, increasing our trust and confidence in creating autonomous agents acting on our behalf. When constructing agents we must identify what kind of agent we are trying to implement acknowledging still severe restrictions in both our understanding of moral reasoning and technological capabilities. In constructing agents, as part of the SophoLab project, we adopt a set of requirements and design principles. As building blocks the belief-desire-intention model is used along with the deontic-epistemic-action logic framework as modeling and specification languages. Implementation in executable software is done using the JACK agent language. Attempts at constructing agents and actual experiments provide some first encouraging results but also point at the large hurdles still to be taken.
Biomechanical events of swallowing are determined more by bolus consistency than by age or gender
Esser, E. ; Engel-Hoek, Lenie van den ; Gorissen, P.J.B. ; Hendriks, J.C.M. ; Swart, B.J.M. de ; Groot, M. de ; Geurts, Alexander
2012, Article / Letter to editor (Physiology and Behavior, vol. 106, iss. 2, (2012), pp. 285-290)The biomechanics of swallowing saliva and substances of different consistencies were investigated in healthy children and adults. To this end, the duration and mean amplitude value (MAV) of surface electromyography (sEMG) of the submental muscle group (SMG) activity, the maximum anterior tongue pressure (ATP), and the rise and release slopes of ATP were measured while participants (39 female and 39 male participants, age 5–65 years) swallowed saliva, 5 mL water (reference), 5 mL thick liquid, and 5 mL solid food. Mean outcome parameters varied with the consistency of the liquid or food swallowed, with the exception of the rise slope of ATP. Moreover, outcome variables were not substantially affected by age with children of 5 years and older showing similar biomechanical events to those of adults. It is important to gain insight into the biomechanics of swallowing saliva and substances of different consistencies in order to understand the underlying mechanisms of dysphagia children and adults.
Aanmelding bij hospicevoorzieningen : Welke rol speelt de verpleegkundige?
Verschuur, E. ; Sande, W.M.M. van der ; Groot, M. de ; Scholten, J. ; Heuvel, Eline van den ; Buys, A.
2012, Article / Letter to editor (Nederlands-Vlaams Tijdschrift voor Palliatieve Zorg, vol. 2012, iss. 2, (2012), pp. 21-27)In twee focusgroepsbijeenkomsten is verpleegkundigen, werkzaam in de thuiszorg of in het ziekenhuis, gevraagd of en welke taken zij voor zichzelf weggelegd zien bij de aanmelding van patiënten bij een hospicevoorziening. Bij de verwijzing naar een hospicevoorziening hebben verpleegkundigen naar eigen zeggen vooral een voorbereidende rol. Taken die zij daarbij uitvoeren zijn het informeren van patiënten en diens naasten over de zorg die de hospicevoorziening kan bieden; het emotioneel ondersteunen van de patiënt bij het maken van de keuze voor verdere zorg en het behartigen van de belangen van de patiënt. Het daadwerkelijk coördineren van zorg of het aanmelden van patiënten bij de hospicevoorziening doen verpleegkundigen zelden. Deze taken bleken voor verpleegkundigen met een aantal dilemma’s omgeven. Zo is het tijdstip waarop men met patiënten over opname in een hospicevoorziening begint te praten belangrijk, maar moeilijk aan te geven. Zo ook de mate waarin men directief de mogelijkheid aankaart en de professionele ruimte hierin. De bevindingen pleiten voor een brede discussie over de rol van verpleegkundigen in de palliatieve zorg.
