Planning risk control

A major component of any IHD treatment plan is control of modifiable risk factors, including dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes. Treatment strategies for dyslipidemia and hypertension in the patient with IHD are summarized in the following paragraphs. Visit chapters in this textbook on the management of hypertension and dyslipidemia for further information.

The major change is in Section 4.3.1 - Environmental Aspects under ISO 14001 and Planning for hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control under OHSAS 18001. OHSAS is much more detailed and prescriptive in how hazards are identified, and how risks are identified, assessed and controlled compared to how aspects and impacts are managed under ISO 14001. The environmental benefits derived from implementation of ISO14001 would similarly be expected to be realized by including occupational health and safety into the applicability of an environmental management system. For the record, many organizations have chosen to add occupational health and safety into the scope of their ISO 14001 EMS. 

Both testing laboratories and accreditation bodies are looking for procedures and guidelines for planning and controlling the test method validation process. However, the discussion above has clearly indicated that one single procedure cannot be developed. Consequently, a palette of different choices of validation techniques has to be developed. How detailed the validation will be, depends on the circumstances (needs, costs, possibilities, risks, etc.). 

Since information is collected throughout the fife cycle of a project, additional information is used to continuously update the risk-management plan. Risk-response control is a continuous effort to identify new sources of risk, update the estimates regarding probabilities and impacts of risk events, and activate the risk-management plan when needed. Constantly monitoring the project progress in an effort to update the risk-management plan and activate it when necessary can reduce the impact of uncertainty and increase the probabdity of successful project completion.

Professional prophylaxis is typically applied at 6-month intervals [142]. However, patients vary in their risk of developing caries and/or periodontal disease so that for some there are clinical advantages in applying prophylactic techniques at shorter time intervals. Ideally, dentists and their teams will develop individualized preventive plans to control those factors leading to destructive dental caries or periodontal disease so that patients can benefit from improved oral health.

To deal with the risks, a risk management plan is put into operation. This risk management plan is often referred to as the nuts and bolts of risk control and includes the four ways to handle risk treat, tolerate, transfer, or terminate. By incorporating a... 

To avoid the damage of human health and contamination of particular elements of the environment it is necessary to apply the risk management process which is significant and still rmderrated tool in the Czech Republic. No matter the characteristic and sector classification of the researched risk in the risk evaluation process it is possible to identify common elementary steps like the risk resources identification, to evaluate, to semi-quantify or quantify all risks, to propose and then to implement adequate preventive countermeasures for the critical risks. Within the waste disposal process in this phase this method must be applied, i.e. in the phase of a landfill planning, operations and closing. Just only in this was it is possible to reach an efficient risk control and reduction. 

Input requirements for MORT analysis, like those for any other detailed, comprehensive analysis, are extensive. Detailed information about the hardware and facilities, environment, procedures, and personnel directly involved is required for full evaluation of the specific control factors, and additional information about the management system is required to evaluate the policies, procedures, implementation plans, risk assessment program, and other upstream factors. Normally, a combination of interviews, physical inspections, and reviews of many procedures and project documents is required. The MORT chart and/or mini-MORT chart can serve as a planning and organizational tool for the collection of evidence and other relevant information. 

One must consider many factors when selecting and implementing controls for hazards. Risk, cost, type and severity of loss, practicality and not introducing additional hazards are all important. For type of loss, the first priority is to protect people and prevent loss of human life. Protection of property, environments, and operations follows. Haddon s energy release theory and other schemes and models (see Chapter 3) provide ideas for dealing with these priorities. Some additional models that help recognize hazards and plan for controls occur later in this chapter. 

In this report the HSL investigators took the emphasis off of the equipment and generalized that the cause of most of the incidents (81% of the incidents) including loss of contaimnent can usually be traced back to failiue of the safety management of the organization to adequately plan and implement ptocedirres for a variety of risk control systems [7],...
