Lung volume equipment and infection control
Lung volume equipment and infection control. J.L. Clausen. ©ERS Journals Ltd 1997. ABSTRACT: As part of the consensus workshop regarding lung volume measurements for the American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society, this background paper reviews mechanisms and risks of cross-infection resultant from performing measurements of absolute lung volumes either by body plethysmography, g...
متن کاملPractical common weights scalarizing function approach for efficiency analysis
A characteristic of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is to allow individual decision making units (DMUs) to select the factor weights which are the most advantageous for them in calculating their efficiency scores. This flexibility in selecting the weights, on the other hand, deters the comparison among DMUs on a common base. For dealing with this difficulty and assessing all the DMUs on the sam...
متن کاملa practical common weight scalarizing function approach for technology selection
abstract. a practical common weight scalarizing function methodology with an improved discriminating power for technology selection is introduced. the proposed scalarizing function methodology enables the evaluation of the relative efficiency of decision-making units (dmus) with respect to multiple outputs and a single exact input with common weights. its robustness and discriminating power are...
متن کاملsurveillance system for hepatitis c infection: a practical approach
hepatitis c virus (hcv) infection is a serious public health concern throughout the world. despite its public health prominence, however, how surveillance systems for hepatitis c should be designed is still a challenging issue especially in developing countries such as iran. establishing a surveillance system needs an ongoing process of case investigation, data collection, analysis of data and ...
متن کاملThe infant lung function model: a mechanical analogue to test infant lung function equipment.
To facilitate international multicentre studies and quality control of infant pulmonary function measurements, the European Respiratory Society-American Thoracic Society (ERS-ATS) working group for infant lung function testing aims to develop specifications for standardized infant lung function equipment and software. However, a standardized test device is also needed to test whether existing i...
