A researcher-designed questionnaire was administered to 29 primagravidas between the ages of 18 to 32. There was a total of 29 participants. The participants consisted of 23 whites and 6 blacks. The null hypothesis was tested by correlating the score obtained on the questionnaire with economic status. The Pearson's r correlation …

The Effect Of Electroshock On The Passage Of Bacteria From A Contaminated Transducer Past A Protective Membrane Into A Disposable Chamber Dome, Patricia K. Taylor Pothier

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Infection related to use of Intra-arterial Hemodynamic Monitoring Devices is a serious complication. In an attempt to decrease the risk of infection presterilized chamber domes were developed to isolate the patient vascular system from the pressure transducer. Users were informed by manufacturers of the domes that routine decontamination of transducer heads was not necessary. Since the development of these disposable chamber domes infection outbreaks have continued to occur. Epidemiological investigation has implicated contact transmission of bacteria due to poor handling techniques in some outbreaks. However, in other outbreaks the source of the epidemic was found to be contaminated transducer heads …
