Conclusions and actions

The conclusion to be drawn and the actions to be taken depend on the initial objectives of the interlaboratory study. They will be discussed in more detail in the following

Currently, karma s rules are formulated in an if-then format. A rule may have multiple conditions, conclusions, and actions, karma takes advantage of both the forward and backward chainers for derivation of the three-dimensional receptor model. For example, two types of rules, generic and specific, can be defined en irically from the results of QSAR as well as from molecular structure. 

Conclusions and actions—selection and implementation of a solution in terms of changes to process conditions, equipment, or operating procedures... 

Conclusions and Perspective We have shown an important potential C02 sink by joint action of carbonate dissolution, GWC and the photosynthetic uptake of DIC by aquatic. The sink constitutes up to 0.82 Pg C/a 0.47 Pg C/a goes to sea via continental rivers and precipitation over sea, 0.12 Pg C/a is returned to the atmosphere, and 0.23 Pg C/a is stored in the continental aquatic ecosystem. The net sink, then, could be 0.70 Pg C/a, or 9% of the total anthropogenic C02 emission and 25% of the missing C02 sink (Melnikov O Neill 2006). 

The correlation between chemical structure and action of mineralocorticoids is extremely complex however, a number of partial conclusions can be synthesized. 

Experience is not just the actions and events which the individual experiences. It includes the individual s experience of these experiences - that is to say his or her thoughts, feelings, conclusions and other responses to the situation or event being experienced. 

While the hallmark of the autonomous person is self-creation through choicemaking, that of the independent practical reasoner is accountability — for conclusions and their practical consequences. This accountability follows from the fact that the individual evaluates the reasons for such conclusions and is prepared to give an account of them to others to answer for them and their practical consequences. The individual acts she recognizes herself, rather than her circumstances, as the cause of her actions, and therefore can be held responsible for them. Accountability implies there are others to be accountable to in acting as well as in reasoning the individual is always embedded in a network of relationships with others. 

To have free will, however, we also need to be able to translate normative conclusions into action. Therefore, the ability that underlies free will has another component, and that is the general capacity through which the results of normative and nonnormative reasoning make a difference to what one does. This capacity has been called the capacity for critical, reflective, rational self-governance (Scanlon 1987). I see this... 

In a sense, conclusions are a call to think or act differently as a result of the material presented. Conclusions that involve largely changes in action are sometimes given the special name recommendations. But whatever you call them, conclusions and recommendations are important because they draw out the consequences of what was said for the reader. 

Now we come to what is frequently the most crucial part of the entire study—communication of the findings. And this includes not only the presentation of data and analysis, but also conclusions, and most important, recommendations. At this point in his study, the market research analyst should be the best informed person in the company on the subject under investigation. As such, management wants, needs, and is entitled to his recommendations for further action. Without them, the report may be of purely academic interest. 

The report must review the test results, draw conclusions, and make recommendations for future action (as applicable). This may take the form of corrective actions in the event of deviations or a test failure, or additional procedures if use of this part of the system is conditional. The qualification report and conclusions should be approved by the same signatories that approved the qualification protocol. 

The final section in the process is describing the conclusions, implications, and recommendations that the team reached after examining the results. Since this is the bottom line of the process, it is important that this section be understandable to those outside the CQI team. This section should concisely explain the conclusions and detail the actions that need to take place. The CQI process is iterative thus the team s recommendations for this CQI cycle and for the next CQI cycle m ust be included (Leape et al., 1998c). This will be good news to pharmacist Pat. Because CQI is a continuous improvement process, an understanding of the iterative nature of the process will take the pressure off him to fix all pharmacy system problems at once. 

Conclusions and follow-up (corrective) actions concerning all batches and other products associated with the failure or discrepancy... 

The conclusion and subsequent actions concerning not only the affected batch, but all batches and products that may have been associated with the confirmed OOS or discrepancy. 

A statement of significant findings, deviations and deficiencies, conclusions, and any action taken, or to be taken, or action recommended to assure compliance... 

Not all critical alarm reports describe the investigation, provide an assignable cause for the alarm, or describe the corrective actions are performed, conclusions and final recommendations. [FDA 483, 2001]... 

Summary, conclusions, and overall compliance status for the given platform/network/architecture should be documented, as well as a detailed description of each area of noncompliance. For each noncomphance, the nature of the remediation as well as the associated estimated completion date should be documented. If the remediation is longer term, the interim stopgap measure that will be taken should be documented. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the person accountable for the remediation action must be documented. 

The set of commands and actions that follow a sequence of priority to reach a conclusion is called hierarchy. Hierarchy identifies the actions to be considered in an order of effectiveness to resolve hazard and risk situations. It helps in locating a problem of risk, its analysis and approaches to avoid this risk, a plan for action, and its effects on productivity. 

The role and status of a textbook. If a book is to be a useful guide to drug use it must offer clear conclusions and advice. If it is to be of reasonable size, alternative acceptable courses of action will often have to be omitted. What is recommended should be based on sormd evidence where this exists, and on an assessment of the opinions of the experienced where it does not.
