Methodology for Minimizing Risk from Airborne Organisms in Hospital Isolation Rooms
This paper compares the use of ultraviolet germicidal irradiaiton (UVGI) with increased ventilation flow rate to minimize the risk from airborne bacteria in hospital isolation rooms. Results show that the number of particles deposited on surfaces and vented out is greater in magnitude than the number killed by UV light and that the numbers for these two mechanisms are large compared to the tota...
متن کاملThe effect of mechanical ventilation and clothing on airborne microbes and wound sepsis in hospital operating rooms, Part 2
This article is the second part of a review into the importance of airborne microbe-carrying particles (MCPs) as a cause of wound sepsis after surgery. The roles of mechanical ventilation and occlusive surgical clothing in reducing airborne microbe-carrying particles (MCPs) and surgical site infections (SSIs) are discussed in this part.
متن کاملThe effect of mechanical ventilation and clothing on airborne microbes and wound sepsis in hospital operating rooms, Part 1
This article is the first part of a review of investigations carried out until about 1990 into the role of mechanical ventilation in reducing wound sepsis in hospitals. It deals with the design of mechanical ventilation systems to reduce airborne microbe-carrying particles (MCPs), and mainly discusses unidirectional airflow (UDAF) systems. The second part will deal with the effect of mechanical...
متن کاملRisk Assessment of Surgical Procedures in a Referral Hospital
Background: Adverse Events (AEs) due to failure in healthcare procedures are common. These procedures are often evaluated independently. The objectives of this study are to investigate the nature of the failures in healthcare procedures of the surgical patients, assessing the frequency of these failures and preventability, and exploring their consequences, underlying causes, and prevention stra...
متن کاملthe study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region
چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
