Öğe Capturing innovation in surgeries: an evaluation from a management perspective(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2019) Olcay, Gökçen Arkalı; Özgen Narcı, Hacer; Gürler, Metin; Bulu, MelihSurgery is considered as an integral part of any health system, comprising 30% of global burden of disease along with serious access problems and catastrophic payments across the world. More than 230 million major surgeries are done every year. Surgical innovations typically represent the greatest part of innovations in terms of their contributions to ensuring safer and high-quality care and thus saving lives in the field of healthcare management. Such innovations also contribute significantly to the knowledge society. Correctly identifying innovations in surgery and enabling them to be known and adapted by other surgeons is a critical concern for all stakeholders in healthcare. There exists no information on surgical innovations from a managerial perspective in Turkey. This study aims to explore how surgeons identify surgical innovations based on their real experiences of past surgeries using a semi-structured questionnaire distributed to surgeons in a major hospital chain in Istanbul, Turkey. The results shed light on recognising and evaluating surgical innovations provided by the practicing surgeons via a management perspective.Öğe Is measuring the knowledge creation of universities possible?: A review of university rankings(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017) Olcay, Gökçen Arkalı; Bulu, MelihUniversity ranking indexes are considered very useful benchmarking tools in comparing the performance of universities around the world. Being placed in these prestigious indexes provides a strong advertisement for a university and helps them to attract high-quality students and academicians all over the world. However, there are some important deficiencies of university ranking indexes such as taking into account the whole university as a single unit without differentiating according to different fields of study or research, being limited to some well-known universities, and not considering institutional characteristics such as size or age. This study aims to explore the leading global university rankings to determine the similarities and differences in terms of their ranking criteria, main indicators, modeling choices, and the effects of these on the rankings. Designating the Times Higher Education World Rankings as the base ranking, a comprehensive comparison of the positions of the top universities of the base index with the matched positions of the same universities under other leading indexes including ARWU, QS, Leiden, and URAP is given. Correlations highlight the significant differences among some indexes even in measuring the same criterion such as teaching or research. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.

While the dicsussion on the role of global ranking indexes in determining the quality of higher education is going on in the academia, such indexes have started to be taken into account seriously by the public opinion. The leading university ranking indexes share the rankings of world universities that are mostly ranked in terms of a single score based on predetermined criteria, indicators measuring the criteria, and the associated weights of the indicators annually with their stakeholders. While understanding how employed criteria and differences in methodologies influence the actual rankings has been an issue, Turkish universities' placements in such rankings make another avenue for research. This study explores Turkish universities that take place in the leading indexes including THE World, QS World, ARWU, and URAP during 2011 and 2015, their similar and different aspects, and the changes in the rankings over the given time period. Factors such as size of the university, being a state or foundation university, existence of the medical school, and long established reputation play a role in Turkish universities' placements in leading international indexes.Öğe Türkiye'de Hastanelerin Bilgi Üretiminde Şehirler Düzeyinde Kıyaslaması(2017) Olcay, Gökçen Arkalı; Bulu, MelihTıp bilimleri alanında gerçekleştirilen her bir yeni teknoloji, uygulama, ürün veya hizmet hayat kurtarıyor veya insanın yaşam süresini uzatma konusunda bir adım daha atılmasına olanak veriyor. Tıpta ve sağlık bilimlerinde meydana gelen yeniliklerin ölçümü ve değerlendirilmesi Türkiye'nin ulusal inovasyon politikaları açısından oldukça önem taşımaktadır. Tıp alanında inovasyon performansı çıktısını belirleyen en önemli faktörler arasında bilimsel yayınlar ve patentler ile birlikte hastane, araştırma enstitüleri, üniversiteler ve diğer kurumlar işbirliğinde gerçekleştirilen projeler bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Sağlık Bakanlığı Kurumları ve üniversitelerin Türkiye'nin bilimsel yayın performansına dolayısıyla yenilikçiliğine şehir düzeyinde katkıları betimsel olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Ankara, İstanbul, İzmir, Konya ve Adana'nın içinde bulunduğu beş şehir hem üniversite hastaneleri hem de eğitim ve araştırma hastaneleri seviyelerinde Türkiye adresli bilimsel yayınların büyük bir çoğunluğunu oluşturmaktadır. Üniversite hastaneleri ile eğitim ve araştırma hastanelerinin odaklandıkları araştırma alanlarında ise hem hastane düzeyinde hem de şehir düzeyinde önemli farklılıklar bulunmaktadır. Ankara klinik tıp alanında Türkiye adresli gerçekleşen yayınlardan en çok payı alırken, daha küçük şehirlerde üniversite hastaneleri ve Tıp Fakülteleri hem sayıca yayınların büyük yüzdesini oluşturmakta hem de büyük ölçüde araştırma odaklarını belirlemektedir
