Hospitalization

The author is grateful for discussions with D. E. Manolopoulos. The hospitality of the Joint Institute for Astrophysics at the University of Colorado during the final preparation of the manuscript is gratefully acknowledged. [Pg.36]

Acknowledgments. Folkmar Bornemann greatfully acknowledges the hospitality of the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University, where he spent the academic year 96/97. His work was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-FG02-92ER25127. [Pg.393]

In all cases the patient should be transferred to hospital or to a doctor, for further treatment of the wound, and also for a course of anti-tetanus toxoid, which is indicated if the patient is not already fully immunised. [Pg.527]

Remove the patient to the fresh air, and loosen clothing at the neck. If breathing has stopped or is extremely w eak, gh e artificial respiration and continue until the patient is transferred to hospital or until a doctor arrives. [Pg.527]

If the patient is in a state of shock (f.e., pale, faint or collapsed, sweating, cold) treat by lying flat, or preferably with the legs raised approximately one foot, loosen clothing around the neck, keep warm but not hot (one to two blankets) and transfer to hospital or obtain medical attention urgently ... [Pg.528]

Plants and animals rely on oxygen for respiration. Hospitals frequently prescribe oxygen for patients with respiratory ailments. [Pg.21]

Radon is still produced for therapeutic use by a few hospitals by pumping it from a radium source and sealing it in minute tubes, called seeds or needles, for application to patient. This... [Pg.152]

During the week in Stockholm I also visited the University of Stockholm and the Royal Technological Institute. Subsequently, I also visited and lectured at Uppsala University and the Universities of Gothenburg and Lund. We were received everywhere with great friendship and hospitality, ending our most memorable trip in Copenhagen, from where we flew home. It was time to come back down to earth from the skies and resume our life. [Pg.185]

In an increasingly technological society, the world s per capita resources have difficulty keeping up. Society s demands, however, must be satisfied while at the same time safeguarding the environment to allow future generations to continue to enjoy planet Earth as a hospitable home. Establishing an equilibrium between mankind s needs and the environment is a challenge we must meet. [Pg.206]

To make her own HBr solution the chemist needs to go down to the local specialty gas supplier. These sorts of businesses sell tanks of oxygen to hospitals, acetylene tanks to welding shops and, yes, HBr to underground chemists. The chemist places 200g of acetic acid in a small PP container or flask and then weighs the flask with its contents. Next, the flask is stirred in an ice bath tray that has just a small amount of ice to keep the contents cool and... [Pg.144]

Catechol - 11 Og, smells like hospital toilets from where I m sitting. Easy and cheap to purchase. Use a funnel to get this into the flask and don t try to dissolve it first as it just sticks to everything, a dry funnel and add slowly so as not to stop the stirrer bar. When this is added the solution will start to change to a dark greeny colour. It is important that the stirrer keeps spinning, if it all stops moving in there, some bits can get left out of the reaction, and your yield will suffer. [Pg.219]

Beriberi, Thiamine Deficiency. The recognition of vitamins and their importance to the health of human beings came about when Eijkman, a Dutch pathologist, was sent to Java in an attempt to cure an epidemic of beriberi that had appeared in one of the hospitals. Eijkman kept a flock of chickens on the hospital grounds to assist in discovering the disease agent he assumed was involved in the etiology of beriberi. These chickens were fed the scraps from the plates of the hospital patients—primarily poHshed rice, the common food in that part of the world (11). [Pg.351]

Acryhcs and modacryhcs are also useflil industrial fibers. Fibers low in comonomer content, such as Dolan 10 and Du Font s PAN Type A, have exceptional resistance to chemicals and very good dimensional stabihty under hot—wet conditions. These fibers are useflil in industrial filters, battery separators, asbestos fiber replacement, hospital cubical curtains, office room dividers, uniform fabrics, and carbon fiber precursors. The exceUent resistance of acryhc fibers to sunlight also makes them highly suitable for outdoor use. Typical apphcations include modacryhcs, awnings, sandbags, tents, tarpauhns, covers for boats and swimming pools, cabanas, and duck for outdoor furniture (59). [Pg.283]

Polyesters are also used in continuous filament spunbonded nonwovens (see Nonwoven fabrics). Reemay spunbonded fabric is composed of continuous filament PET with a polyester copolymer binder. These spunbonded fabrics are available in a wide range of thicknesses and basis weights and can be used for electrical insulation, coated fabric substrates, disposable apparel for clean rooms, hospitals, and geotextiles (qv). [Pg.334]

Water-Soluble Films. Water-soluble films can be produced from such polymers as poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH), methylceUulose, poly(ethylene oxide), or starch (qv) (see Cellulose ethers Polyethers Vinyl polymers). Water-soluble films are used for packaging and dispensing portions of detergents, bleaches, and dyes. A principal market is disposable laundry bags for hospital use. Disposal packaging for herbicides and insecticides is an emerging use. [Pg.378]

Market Trends of the 1990s. The United States spice market can be divided into three sectors based on appHcation industrial, ie, food processing and manufacture institutional, ie, restaurants, hospitals, schools, and military and retail. The food manufacturers and institutions account for almost 65% of U.S. spice usage, an increase from about 40% in the 1980s. Retail food outiets make up most of the remainder. [Pg.26]

Table 15 gives a sampling of other pharmaceuticals derived from hydraziae. Cefazolin, a thiadiazole tetrazole derivative, is one of the most widely used antibacterial dmgs in U.S. hospitals (see Antibiotics, P-LACTAMs). Procarbazine, an antineoplastic, is a monomethyUiydrazine derivative (220). Fluconazole has shown some promise in the treatment of AIDS-related fungal infections. Carbidopa is employed in the treatment of Parkinson s disease. FurazoHdone is a veterinarian antibacterial. [Pg.292]

A poly( -vinyl-2-pyrroHdinone)-iodine complex [25655-41-8] (PVP-iodine), has been used extensively in hospitals and elsewhere because of its germicidal, bactericidal, fungicidal, and generally disinfecting properties (150). It is sold as a solution that contains about 10% available, or active, iodine and about 5% inactive iodine, in the form of iodide ion (see Disinfectants and antiseptics Industrial antimicrobial agents). [Pg.367]

Lead bricks are generahy used as temporary shields for radiation sources at nuclear power stations, research institutes, hospitals, and fuel reprocessing plants. Plat, rectangular bricks requite a double layer with staggered seams whereas the interlocking bricks requite only one course. Lead shot can be poured into inaccessible areas like a Hquid. [Pg.62]

The main development in medical diagnostic reagents since the 1960s has been the steady growth of dry (soHd-phase) chemistry systems. Dry chemistry systems have made substantial gains over wet clinical analysis in the number of tests performed in hospitals, laboratories, and homes because of ease, rehabiUty, and accuracy. [Pg.38]
