Community Management Of Waste Recycling: The Sirdo, Marianne Schmink

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

At the beginning of 1978, a group of families were awaiting access to low-cost housing in Mérida, a city on Mexico's southeastern coast. Some units were equipped with a new drainage system called SIRDO (Integrated System for Recycling Organic Wastes), and families interested in living in the experimental block where the SIRDO was to be installed could be given housing right away. Three years later, families in another community located in the crowded Valley of Mexico decided to try the system in their own neighborhood. Women have played a crucial role in learning to manage the technical, economic, and social …

Creación De Empleos Distintos De Las Artesanías Para Las Mujeres De Bangladesh, Marty Chen

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

Con demasiada frecuencia los planificadores profesionales del desarrollo que diseñan proyectos destinados a producir ingresos para las mujeres, lo único que consideran son las artesanías. Si bien es cierto que en determinadas circunstancias éstas pueden proporcionarles una renta segura, en muchos otros casos las artesanías dan poco rendimiento y resultan ser una empresa mas complicada de lo que se esperaba. El Comité de Adelanto Rural de Bangladesh (BRAC—sigla de su nombre en inglés, Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee), es una organización que ha logrado desarrollar con éxito un programa de oportunidades de empleo femenino, distinto de las artesanías. De las 10.000 …

Évaluation Et Contrôle De L'Exposition Professionnelle Aux Vapeurs Et Gaz Anesthésiants En Milieu Hospitalier Au Québec, Jan Éric Deadman, François-Pierre Dussault, Louis Gendreau, Alain Lajoie

Rapports de recherche scientifique

Le présent rapport vise à décrire la problématique de l'exposition professionnelle aux vapeurs et gaz anesthésiants en milieu hospitalier québécois.

Ce type d'exposition a été signalé à maintes reprises par différents auteurs et a régulièrement retenu l'attention du personnel impliqué et des médias. Le cri d'alarme lancé récemment par les anesthésistes albertains et repris par la presse illustre cette préoccupation du milieu.

À la demande des départements de santé communautaire, les laboratoires de 'Institut ont évalué les niveaux d'exposition du personnel de trois centres hospitaliers lors d'interventions chirurgicales nécessitant une anesthésie générale. Les données recueillies confirment les connaissances actuelles et …

Mélanges D'Hydrocarbures En Milieu De Travail, Daniel Drolet, Nicole Goyer

Rapports de recherche scientifique

Les hydrocarbures obtenus par la distillation du pétrole constituent un groupe de solvants utilisés fréquemment en milieu de travail (peinture, imprimerie, nettoyage à sec, etc.). Ils peuvent être classés en différentes catégories selon leur hauteur de sortie (ou point d'ébullition) dans les tours à distillation des raffineries. Bien qu'il y ait plusieurs classes d'hydrocarbures, trois classes seulement sont régimentées au Québec: le solvant de caoutchouc, le naphta de fabrication de vernis et de peinture VMP, et le solvant Stoddard. L'analyse chromatographique des hydrocarbures complexes implique à la fois des problèmes d'ordre technique et d'interprétation des résultats. En effet, il est …

The Effect Of Social Support On The Blood Pressure Of Mild And Moderate Hypertensives, Edith Price Vaughan

Theses and Dissertations

The study was conducted to determine the relationship between social support and the blood pressure of mild and moderate hypertensives. Motivation for the study was derived from the growing realization that the social support of an individual has a far-reaching effect on illness and health and that little research has been done concerning the specific effect that social support has on blood pressure.

The Norbeck Social Support Questionnaire (NSSQ) was administered to a convenience sample of 30 subjects selected from among the hypertensive clients of the Family Practice Clinic and General Medical Clinic located in the Peninsula Health Center. The …

The Effects Of Prospective Payment Using Diagnosis Related Groups (Drg) On The Relationship Between Hospitals And Physicians, Thomas K. Vogler

Theses

This study examined the attitudes of physicians and hospital administrations towards the prospective payment system based upon Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs). The study investigated changes in relationships, prior to implementation on a wide-spread basis, between the physicians and hospital administrators.

It was anticipated that the relationship between the physicians and hospital administration would change and that the physicians' attitude towards patient management would be altered. An attempt was made to determine the most appropriate area to monitor the consumption of resources during a patient stay. A survey of the physicians and hospital administration was used to determine present attitudes.

Staff Nurses' Self-Esteem As It Relates To Working In Specialty Areas, Donna Lynn Evans

Ellmer School of Nursing Theses & Dissertations

This study compared the levels of self-esteem of hospital staff nurses working in specialty areas versus those working in general medical-surgical areas. Fifty registered nurses employed full-time in staff positions at a large, acute-care hospital participated in the study. After indicating the area of the hospital in which they worked, the type of education they had, and the number of years of experience as a registered nurse, they then completed the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale. Scores were then compared using independent t-tests applied to the area in which the subject worked, the type of education, and the years of experience. Results …

On The Memory Code In Serial Feature-Positive Discriminations, Robert S. Mccann

Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

The aim of the present research was to examine the nature of the memory code that contributes to performance in a serial feature-positive discrimination. In order to test the hypothesis that a reinforce expectancy based on the first-order association between feature element and reinforce defines the content of the code, different groups of rats received various forms of pretraining involving either the feature element or the common element, or both. For some groups the feature element was trained as a CS+, while for others it was trained as a CS-. In addition, some groups received training establishing the common element …

Studies Of The Depolarization-Induced Release Of Beta Adrenergic Receptor Blocking Drugs From In Vitro Neural Preparations, Patricia Sherwood Bright

MUSC Theses and Dissertations

The objective of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that nerve terminals may serve as a site for storage and release of beta adrenergic receptor blocking drugs. Experiments were conducted with two different in vitro neural preparations, cultured superior cervical ganglia from adult rats and synaptosomes prepared from rat cerebral cortex. The release of propranolol by depolarizing stimuli was examined and compared with the release of the more hydrophilic, cardioselective beta receptor antagonist atenolol. In both neuronal models, norepinephrine release was monitored as an index of exocytosis. Cultured superior cervical ganglia of the rat represent an in vitro model …

Clinical And Financial Evaluation Of Patients Within A Diagnosis Related Group, Osama M. Ibrahim

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate financial and clinical data of patients within a selected DRG. The data obtained from such analysis will be used to design a system whereby clinical pharmacists may improve the hospital's reimbursement potential.

Based upon Upton's proposed plan, this study is designed to evaluate all DRGs in a community hospital in an attempt to focus on those DRGs which represent the greatest financial pressure to the pharmacy department and, therefore, to the institution.

Clinical and financial data of patients within the expensive DRG, will be collected from their medical and financial records for …

Release Of Cortisol From Lanolin Alcohol-Providone Films, Mahmud Sighayer Treki

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In this study, lanolin alcohol as well as lanolin alcohol-povidone films (1:1 . 5) were investigated as a potential drug delivery system. The in vitro drug release from these films was studied in terms of the effect of agitation, film thickness and drug concentration. The rate of release of Cortisol from lanolin alcohol films was not affected by the intensity of agitation. Moreover, the film matrix was found to remain essentially intact throughout the release process. Further analysis of the data revealed that Higuchi's diffusion-controlled granular matrix model explained the mechanism of Cortisol release from such films. The results of …
