Cyclic Olefin Copolymer: An Alternative Plastic Film For Pharmaceutical Blister Packages, Kurt Trombley Jan 2001

Cyclic Olefin Copolymer: An Alternative Plastic Film For Pharmaceutical Blister Packages, Kurt Trombley

Theses

This thesis paper will provide data to show that cyclic olefin copolymer blister film can be used as a beneficial alternative to polyvinyl chloride film which is more commonly used in the pharmaceutical market today. Polyvinyl chloride continues to be a highly controversial packaging material due to potential environmental concerns. Cyclic olefin copolymer is shown to have properties which result in fewer environmental concerns and also can provide the added benefit of an improved barrier to moisture permeation when compared to polyvinyl chloride film. This paper documents a summary of the data on both sides of the polyvinyl chloride environmental …

The Caregiver Quality Of Life Cystic Fibrosis (Cqolcf) Scale: Development And Validation, Whitney Boling

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this study was to modify the Caregiver Quality of Life Index-Cancer Scale, develop it as the Caregiver Quality of Life Cystic Fibrosis (CQOLCF) Scale, and validate it in the CF family caregiver population. Another purpose of this study was to create a disease-specific instrument that assessed the CF family caregivers perception of their quality of life. Three research questions guided this investigation into assessing the quality of life of CF family caregivers: (a) Is the CQOLCF a reliable instrument for assessing quality of life in CF family caregivers? (b) Is the CQOLCF a valid instrument for assessing …


Institution Of A Behavior-Based Safety System In A Mid-Sized Corporation, Donald Gary Brown Jan 2001

Institution Of A Behavior-Based Safety System In A Mid-Sized Corporation, Donald Gary Brown

All ETDs from UAB

A behavior-based safety system was instituted in a mid-sized corporation that employed approximately 650 individuals. The intervention consisted of training, observations, and feedback and used a time-series analysis with multiple baseness. One division received the intervention, while two other divisions served as concurrent baseness. Initially, the corporate safety team received training on the behavior-based safety system. They began conducting baseline observations in all three divisions in January 1998. In the division that received the intervention, the safety team began conducting baseline observations in April 1998 and the production personnel began their observations in June 1998. The other two divisional safety …

Comparison Of The Effectiveness Of Solar-Dried Mangoes And High-Dose Vitamin A Supplements In Improving The Vitamin A Status Of Gambian Children, Bakary Seihou Drammeh

All ETDs from UAB

Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is a public health problem in the world. Carotene-rich foods may prevent VAD. We tested the effectiveness of mangoes on vitamin A status in a region with subclinical VAD. We randomized 176 rural Gambian children aged 2–7 y to receive 1 of 4 treatments: 75 g dried mango (rehydrated before eating) plus 5 g fat 5 d/wk for 4 mo (MF), ( n = 44); 75 g dried mango without fat 5 d/wk for 4 mo (M), ( n = 45); one 200,000 IU vitamin A capsule at baseline (A), ( n = 44); or one …


Examination Of Selected Prenatal Wic Program Components In Alabama Counties With Contrasting Rates Of Low Birth Weight, James Vernon Langie Jr Jan 2001

Examination Of Selected Prenatal Wic Program Components In Alabama Counties With Contrasting Rates Of Low Birth Weight, James Vernon Langie Jr

All ETDs from UAB

In 1994 there were marked differences in rates of low birth weight (LBW) infants at the county level in Alabama despite the relatively high overall level of prenatal participation by eligible women (approximately 70%) in the Women Infants and Children (WIC) program. Because LBW has a multifactorial etiology, regardless of how it is defined, this study examined the question of whether there were differences in WIC program and participant characteristics in Alabama counties with overall low rates of LBW compared with counties with high overall rates of LBW in 1994. When county-level data for WIC program characteristics were examined for …
