Numerous physical modalities have been used in attempts to augment the healing process, including ultrasound, low- energy light therapy, and electrical stimulation (ES). ES has been shown to benefit tissue repair in a variety of wound types, but variations in study designs, administration, and parameters render its application in clinical practice somewhat unconventional. A dres...

PURPOSE To estimate the economic impact of a TegadermTM chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) gel dressing compared with a standard intravenous (i.v.) dressing (defined as non-antimicrobial transparent film dressing), used for insertion site care of short-term central venous and arterial catheters (intravascular catheters) in adult critical care patients using a cost-consequence model populated with da...

Data (n = 1,746) collected from 1985 through 1995 on Korean Native Cattle by the National Livestock Research Institute of Korea were used to estimate genetic parameters for marbling score, dressing percentage, and longissimus muscle area, with backfat thickness, slaughter age, or slaughter weight as covariates. Estimates were obtained with REML. Model 1 included animal genetic and residual rand...

We present distributions in longitudinal and transverse momentum for hadrons produced in various deep inelastic processes for a particular picture of quark dressing. The sensitivity of various parameters in the model to presently available data is explored. Predictions are also made for the correlations expected in proton-proton scattering events which yield a high transverse momentum pion or k...

800x600   introduction:  many items are needed for dressing including sterile dressing set, antiseptic and washing solutions, leucoplast tape, waste bin for infectious garbage, waste bin for noninfectious garbage, safe disposal trash for sharp cutting instruments, bedpan and sometimes drugs. all the items are laid out on a simple wheeled trolley. the multiplicity of items together with problems...

OBJECTIVES Uncontrolled hemorrhage remains a leading cause of traumatic death. Several topical adjunct agents have been shown to be effective in controlling hemorrhage, and two, chitosan wafer dressing (HemCon [HC]) and zeolite powder dressing (QuikClot [QC]), are being utilized regularly on the battlefield. However, recent literature reviews have concluded that no ideal topical agent exists. T...

To assess the possibility of selective disintegration and reduction overgrinding hard-to-reproduce ores, optical microscopic X-ray microtomographic studies were carried out quantitative characteristics morphological parameters disseminated rich cuprous ore samples from Norilsk-type Oktyabrsky deposit identified. Among most informative are area, perimeter, edge roughness, sphericity, elongation ...
