Methods of Sterilization II: Chemical Methods

9.5K
In healthcare, the chemical method of sterilization uses chemical sterilants to treat surgical instruments and medical supplies to help prevent the transmission of infectious pathogens to patients. Due to heat sensitivity, most medical supplies and equipment should not be exposed to high temperatures. These parts include rubber, plastic, glass, and other similar elements.
Using chemical sterilization rather than heat to clean out equipment is recommended. It eradicates and removes all bacteria,...

The Scientific Method

57.2K
Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.

The Scientific Method

220.3K
The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

Methods of Sterilization I: Physical Methods

25.2K
As used in a healthcare facility, sterilization destroys all microorganisms through physical or chemical methods. The physical method includes steam, dry heat, boiling water, and radiation.
Steam sterilization uses non-toxic, low-cost moist heat in the form of saturated steam under pressure, which is fast, microbicidal, and sporicidal, and quickly warms and penetrates fabrics. Autoclaves, or steam sterilizers, expose each item to direct steam contact for a predetermined time at the necessary...

Consider an arbitrary truss structure composed of diagonal, vertical, and horizontal members fixed to the wall. To calculate the force acting on members CB, GB, and GH, method of sections can be used. The loads and lengths of the horizontal and vertical members are known parameters, as shown in the figure.

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

1.4K
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Traumatology

Context:

  • Femur fractures are a known complication of hip arthroplasty.
  • This study examines a significant cohort over a 20-year period.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the incidence, timing, and characteristics of femur fractures following hip arthroplasty.
  • To review surgical conditions, radiographic findings, treatments, and complications associated with these fractures.

Summary:

  • A retrospective, multicenter study identified 250 cases of femur fractures post-hip arthroplasty (1973-1993).
  • Of these, 51 were periprosthetic and 199 occurred post-operatively, with an average delay of 5 years.
  • The cohort comprised 157 women and 93 men, with an average age of 73 years for post-operative fractures.

Impact:

  • Provides valuable data on the long-term outcomes of hip arthroplasty regarding femur fracture risk.
  • Informs clinical practice and future research on fracture prevention and management strategies.
