Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy (OPAT), an alternative to inpatient intravenous antibiotic therapy, has shown benefits in international studies such as increased patient satisfaction. Because OPAT has been used only sporadically in Germany so far, no structured results on patients’ experiences and concerns regarding OPAT have yet been available. This study therefore aims to explore the experiences of OPAT patients in a pilot region in Germany.

This book outlines the currently available clinical, epidemiological and experimental data on Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) with special emphasis on studies and results achieved in Europe. The book also gives an overview on diagnostics, therapy and surveillance, all of which are still challenging. Therefore, a closer look is taken on the effect of probiotics as an alternative to antibiotics, for prevention and treatment of CDI.

"Numerical modeling of creep concrete beam and slab with boltzmann superposition principle" using this integral method, the creep model for Timoshenko beam and Mindlin plate will be evaluated by the Finite Element Method (FEM) combined Prony's series interpolation through MATLAB program. The creep datas used for Prony's series interpolation are based on international standards. These results obtained by FEM will be compared with available referred results and the results of the analytical method.

This study presents some research results on the relationship between the geological environment of the surface layer and the level of modern tectonic activity in the sea waters of the Hoi An - Cua Dai area based on the interpretation of high-resolution shallow seismic data combined with the surface sediments’ grainsize analysis and other available data sources. The results show that the surface geological environment in the coastal waters North of the Thu Bon river fault is influenced by modern tectonic activities, believed to be a part of causing geological catastrophic events.

Limited treatment options are available for patients infected with multidrug (MDR)- or pan-drug (PDR)- resistant bacterial pathogens, resulting in infections that can persist for weeks or months. In order to better understand transmission and evolutionary dynamics of MDR Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) during long-term infection, we analyzed genomes from a series of isolates from individual patients at isolate-specific, patient-specific, and population levels.

The result of this research reveals that the implemented policy is not in harmony with the available resource in the field, and caused unoptimum output. Because of that, a cooperation between the available human resources in the policy implementation is vital to improve the sector’s contribution towards the national economy, where ports are placed as an accelerator of physical and economical development. Port reservice is a requirement to improve the inconducive and unprofessional Indonesian ports that contribute on ineffective and inefficient service performance.

This paper presents experimental results on the influence of printing directions on the strength of 3D printed concrete (3DPC) using materials available in Vietnam. The experimental results show that the printing direction has a significant influence on the strength of 3DPC with and without fiber, in which the X-direction printing samples has the lowest strength, only about 30-40% of the compressive strength and 20-30% of the flexural strength of the casted samples.
