How Will Hospitals Accommodate a Surge of Critical Care Patients ... 

Can any number of identical subunits be accommodated in the asymmetric unit while preserving specificity of interactions within an icosahedral arrangement This question was answered by Don Caspar then at Children s Hospital, Boston, and Aaron Klug in Cambridge, England, who showed in a classical paper in 1962 that only certain multiples (1, 3, 4, 7...) of 60 subunits are likely to occur. They called these multiples triangulation numbers, T. Icosahedral virus structures are frequently referred to in terms of their trian-gulation numbers a T = 3 virus structure therefore implies that the number of subunits in the icosahedral shell is 3 x 60 = 180.

In addition to the modular storage equipment offered by States Parties, there are heavy equipment items such as decontamination systems, mobile laboratories, field hospitals, medical equipment, and facilities for the temporary accommodation of persons.

It seems clear that government as a funding agency and physicians as clinical providers may take race into account when racial correlations with health status or health care are directly relevant. In many clinical situations moral and legal duties to take race into account in order to respond properly to the patient s health needs may also exist, either because of state action or because of state laws banning racial and ethnic discrimination in public accommodations, which include hospitals and physician offices. Three situations in which a physician may have a duty to recognize racial correlations and order a different test or therapy as a result are discussed below. 

Susan s name now is synonymous with MCS accommodations in California and beyond. She was instrumental in the development of an environmentally-friendly wing in the Marin County hospital the development of an experimental, eleven-unit apartment house funded by the government for people with MCS, also in Marin County and a designated fragrance-free area in a Unitarian Church in San Francisco. 

The ward, large enough to accommodate 20 bunks for enlisted troops, contained only half a dozen widely separated hospital-style beds. A young soldier sat on the edge of one of them, restlessly fumbling with his pillow. He was trying to stuff it back into the pillowcase from which he had just removed it. He couldn t make it fit, so he turned his attention to the sheets. Then, suddenly, he became interested in the buttons on a technician s shirt. 

Monetary transactions undertaken as a result of illness or health care to detect, prevent, or treat disease are not limited to direct medical costs. There is another type of cost that often is overlooked - direct nonmedical costs. These costs are incurred because of illness or the need to seek medical care. They include the cost of transportation to the hospital or physician s office, the cost of special clothing needed because of the illness, the cost of accommodations for receiving medical treatment at a distant medical facility, and the cost of special housing (e.g., the cost of modification of a home to accommodate an ill individual). Direct nonmedical costs, which are generally paid out of pocket by patients and their families, are just as much direct medical costs as are expenses that are more usually covered by third-party insurance plans.

This data instrument developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will help health departments and other decision makers collect core data useful for investigating the number, type, timing, and severity of injuries associated with a mass casualty event. The instrument was adapted from a tool initially used to collect information about injuries among survivors of the World Hade Center bombing. Its contents or format can be modified to accommodate the circumstances of a particular mass casualty event. Each data element is defined in the Explanatory Notes so that a local or state health department can quickly train and dispatch workers to collect comparable injury data from area hospitals or where other casualties are treated. These data can then be provided to decision makers to help guide public health responses to the mass casualty event or provide the basis for more in-depth investigations. 

Hospitality must not be perceived as influencing the inspection. Regulators are typically required to pay their own accommodation costs and usually have a fixed daily allowance. Suggest suitable local hotels that fit their pocket. Hotel reservations can be made on their behalf but check they are comfortable with the arrangements. The pharmaceutical and healthcare companies should also consider local transport requirements from the airport or train station to the site, and daily commuting to and from the hotel. If the inspector is making his/her own way to the site under inspection, then reserved car parking would be courteous. 

One of the first considerations in respect of sponsorship of healthcare professionals attending international congresses, in terms of travel, accommodation or congress registration fees, is whether the authorities in the health professional s country require notification of this sponsorship. This is true in France, for example, where the national medical board, Consiel national de l Ordre des Medecins (CNOM), and the national board of pharmacists, Consiel national de l Ordre des Pharmacists (CNOP), require 30 days advance notification of hospitality or sponsorship. Details of this can be found in Section 8.3, p. 131.

The hospitality offered by the Pharmaceutical Companies Association to health professionals must be of secondary importance to professional or scientific events. The standard of accommodation must be reasonable and appropriate to the event and the expenses incurred should not exceed what participants would have paid for themselves. Specific requests from a physician for the total or partial covering of his or her travel/accommodation expenses should be submitted to the National Medical Association, the Conseil National de L Ordre des Medecins (CNOM) if it relates to a national/ international conference, or to the Regional Medical Association for regional conferences.

No specific guidance on travel and accommodation general guidance on hospitality is given in Section... 

Accommodation and hospitality must not exceed reasonable limits and must be of minor importance in relation to the job-related, science-oriented purpose of the in-house event. The selection of the conference location and conference venue, as well as the invitation of healthcare professionals, must be made exclusively based on factual criteria, e.g. the leisure offerings of the conference venue do not qualify as such a reason. 

Pharmaceutical and other companies are allowed to cover the hospitality expenses of physicians participating in congresses. Hospitality expenses include, exclusively, expenses for the registration in the corresponding event, food and accommodation of the physician during the event, and transportation from the seat of his professional practice to the location of the event it must be reasonable with respect to the main scientific purpose of the event. 

Inhaled ipratropium bromide generally produces a further improvement in lung function of 10% to 15% over inhaled /32-agonists alone. In children and adults, multiple-dose ipratropium bromide added to initial therapy also produced a reduced hospitalization rate in the subset of patients with an FEVi of less than 30% of predicted at basefine. " Ipratropium bromide, a quaternary amine, is poorly absorbed and produces minimal or no systemic effects. Care should be used when administering ipratropium bromide by nebulizer. If a tight mask or mouthpiece is not used, the ipratropium bromide that deposits in the eyes may produce pupillary dilatation and difficulty in accommodation. Ipratropium bromide is not a vasodilator, so unlike. 182-agonists it will not worsen ventUation-perfusion mismatch. ...
