Management of hospital care during the Covid-19 pandemic
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic required major adaptations in the organisation of health care systems, particularly within hospitals. The aims of this article are to gather evidence on challenges in hospital care from a management perspective during the pandemic. The lessons learned will help to improve pandemic preparedness and resilience. Methods: The management of hospital care during the pandemic in five European countries (Denmark, France,…
Three dimensions of long‐term care provision in middle‐income countries—A view across Africa, Latin America and Asia
This article identifies and assesses gaps and deficits in the provision of long‐term care (LTC) services in nine middle‐income countries (MIC) across Africa (Algeria, Nigeria, South Africa), Latin America (Brazil, Colombia, Mexico) and Asia (China, India, Turkey). Legislation and entitlement to, conditions for access to and availability of publicly financed or co‐financed LTC services for elderly persons are assessed. Across the nine selected MIC…
Integrated Care for Frail Elderly
The CCFE is an exemplary initiative to integrate care for the frailest elderly living at home. Its innovative components and critical success factors are likely to be transferable to other settings when providers can take on similar roles and work closely with payers who provide integrated funding

The Selfie framework for integrated care for multi-morbidity
BACKGROUND: The rise of multi-morbidity constitutes a serious challenge in health and social care organisation that requires a shift from disease- towards person-centred integrated care. The aim of the current study was to develop a conceptual framework that can aid the development, implementation, description, and evaluation of integrated care programmes for multi-morbidity. METHODS: A scoping review and expert discussions were used to identify …
PCR-RFLP for Aspergillus Species
Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) is the most simple method for single-nucleotide change detection. It is widely used in the detection and differentiation between mycotoxigenic species. It is based on PCR amplification of a target region containing the variant site of the studied species followed by restriction endonuclease digestion and gel electrophoresis to visualize the RFLP patterns. In this method…
The Selfie project on Integrated Care for Persons with Multi-Morbidity
The rise of multi-morbidity constitutes a serious challenge in the organisation of care and requires successful integration to counter the threat of fragmentation. The EU Horizon2020-funded project ‘Sustainable Integrated Care Models for Multi-Morbidity: Delivery, Financing and Performance’ (SELFIE) aims to increase the knowledge-base on integrated care for multi-morbidity. During this session four presentations on initial findings will be presen…

The Health Network Tennengau – The first population oriented integrated chronic care programme for persons with multiple chronic conditions in Austria
We report of our work on a “thick description” of a population oriented integrated care programme in Austria, the Health Network Tennengau (HNT). The HNT is a bottom-up network comprised of social and health service providers and voluntary organisations in the Tennengau region, which is a rural area in the state of Salzburg. The HNT has its origin in a pilot project for medical home nursing care introduced in 1995 and has since gradually evolved …
Organization and Supply of Long‐term Care Services for the Elderly
This article provides an overview of the organization of formal long‐term care (LTC) systems for the elderly in ten old and 11 new EU member states (MS). Generally, we find that the main responsibility for regulating LTC services is centralized in half of these countries, whereas in the remaining countries, this responsibility is typically shared between authorities at the central level and those at the regional or local levels in both institutio…
Differences and similarities in monetary benefits for informal care in old and new EU member states
This article presents an overview of the monetary benefits available in the context of long‐term care provided by family or other informal carers in 11 old and 10 new EU member states. All but one country in our sample offer at least some monetary benefits that can be used to help finance informal care. Old EU member states tend to direct benefits to individuals in need of care, whereas new EU member states place more emphasis on benefits for car…
