  • Abstracts Sa Heart Congress 2009
    ABSTRACTS SA HEART CONGRESS 2009 Risk factors associated with six-month mortality following vascular surgery Jamila Khatoon Adam, Bruce Biccard, Sumansha Nepaul and Wafaa N.S. Rmaih Durban University of Technology, Department of Biomedical and Clinical Technology, Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa Introduction: Every day a large number of patients undergo vascular surgery, but not all of these patients survive surgery. By looking at risk factors identifi ed in previous studies the outcome of some patients’ surgery may be predicted. However, there is a limited number of studies on South African patients with regards to risk factors associated with post-operative vascular surgical survival. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors associated with six-month mortality following vascular surgery. Methods: Patients selected (>39y) for this study were scheduled for both elective and emergency vascular surgery at Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital, between June 2003 and July 2007. Demographic data from the hospital computerised data base was extracted, as well as patients’ date of surgery and their inpatient and outpatient visit dates. The patients’ hospital visits following surgery were analysed. 283 patients were included. The risk factors examined in this study were; male sex, history of smoking, ischaemic heart disease, congestive cardiac failure; cerebrovascular accident, diabetes, hypertension, creatinine >180 μmol.L-1, chronic beta-blockade, major vascular surgery, mean daily heart rate (HR) the day before surgery; mean daily HR on the third postoperative day and mean daily systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 100 or > 179mmHg. These factors were entered into a bivariate cox regression analysis. Risk factors with a p < 0.1 were entered into a multivariate analysis.

And this Wallaby team was not good enough to prevent that record being extended for at least another year. But this is not a blow-by-blow match report.

  • Analysing Rugby Game Attendance at Selected Smaller Unions in South Africa
    Analysing rugby game attendance at selected smaller unions in South Africa by PAUL HEYNS 12527521 B.Com (Hons), NGOS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Business Administration at the Potchefstroom Business School of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof. R.A. Lotriet November 2012 Potchefstroom ABSTRACT Rugby union is being viewed and played by millions of people across the world. It is one of the fastest growing sport codes internationally and with more countries emerging and playing international and national games, the supporter attendance is crucial to the game. The rugby industry is mostly formal, with an international body controlling the sport globally and a governing body in each country to regulate the sport in terms of rules and regulations. These bodies must adhere to the international body’s vision and mission to grow the sport and to steer it in the correct direction. This study focuses on rugby game attendance of selected smaller unions in South Africa. Valuable information was gathered describing the socio- economic profile and various preferences and habits of supporters attending rugby games. This information forms the basis for future studies to honour the people that support their unions when playing rugby nationally or internationally. The research was conducted through interviews with influential administrators within the rugby environment and questionnaires that were distributed among supporters that attended a Leopard and Puma game. The main conclusions during the study were the failure to attract supporters to the Leopards and the Pumas local matches. The supporters list various reasons for poor supporter attendances namely: a lack of marketing, no entertainment, the quality of the teams that are competing, and the time-slots in which the matches take place.
