When salmeterol was given for one year to 15 407 patients there were no unexpected major adverse events. There were 1022 (6.6%) deaths 73 patients died of asthma and 39 used salmeterol during the last month of life. Analysis showed that the majority of deaths were due to natural causes. In four of the 39 subjects who died of asthma and who had taken salmeterol the authors thought it possible that death had been related to the use of salmeterol (13).

Discussion of Results. The results of the relative fatigue life analysis of the four pavement sections are given in Table X. The analysis indicates that the 12-in. asphaltic concrete pavement (System 1) and the 1%-in. sulfur-asphalt over 10-in. asphaltic concrete base (System 4) were not able to withstand the 106 passes of an 18-kip axle load. For System 4, the iy2-in. S-A-S surfacing was adequate, but analysis indicated that... 

MeV Proton Bombardment. Sources produced by 15-MeV protons were shown by a two-component fit half-life analysis of the multiscaled well counter data to contain about 1% (by activity) and no detectable or... 

Some assessors also do a useful life analysis to provide the safety instrumentation engineer with knowledge of any wear out mechanisms and the time periods imtil wear out. Preventative maintenance programs can be established to replace instruments at the end of their useful life knowing this information. Some FMEDA analyses are also extended to evaluate the effectiveness of proposed proof test methods. This provides the safety instrument engineer with proof test coverage factors used for more realistic PFH/PFD/PFDavg calculations.
