ABSTRACT
Need: A specific and accurate thorough clinical monitoring is crucial for observing patients' recovery status and further planning of treatment/management measures in COVID 19 pandemic. Fluctuations in blood oxygen saturation are particularly important in COVID 19 patients to prevent and early detect the unforeseen situations. Silent hypoxia is one of the threatening situations in such patients. Therefore the exact calibearation and accuracy testing of the oxygen is crucial. Method:. Out of 22 patients in COVID 19 recovery ward, 7 were encountered with silent hypoxia in sample collection process. The 30 paired samples of 15 patients and 14 paired samples of 7 patients with silent hypoxia (in a pair one sample was of SpO2 by pulse oximeter and another was of SaO2 by ABG analyzer) were analyzed seperately for accuracy by Bland and Altman's equations of limits of agreement. The mean difference and standard deviations were documented and the inferences were drawn.
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of information & communication technology (ICT) orientation on university's brand performance along with the mediating role of student's satisfaction and moderating role of trust and perceived service quality in times of COVID-19. To achieve this purpose, a quantitative methodological approach was adopted in which the data was collected online through 417 structured questionnaires from university students of Pakistan. The data was analyzed using SPSS and AMOS in which structural equation modeling was performed for testing hypotheses of the study. Results of the current study indicate that the ICT orientation has a significant positive effect on student's satisfaction and university's brand performance while the student's satisfaction significantly mediates the relationship between ICT orientation and university's brand performance. It has been further found that the perceived service quality acts as a significant but negative moderator in the relationship between ICT orientation and student's satisfaction. Results further reveal that the trust acts as a positive moderator in the relationship between student's satisfaction and university's brand performance. The current study is expected to be an important contribution to the literature and practice as it provides useful implications that how universities can enhance and maintain their brand performance and student's satisfaction during the COVID-19 outbreak by adopting techniques and tools of ICT. © 2020 Johar Education Society Pakistan .
