1. Corneal tissue must meet quality standards established by Federal Regulations and state laws. 2. Documented information regarding eye bank tissue is privileged and confidential. 3. Media used to store corneal tissue must meet Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Good Manufacturing Practices standards.
1. Bacteria have been versatile in circumventing the mechanisms by which antibiotics work; in the 1990s there has been a world-wide resurgence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial diseases. 2. Resistance to certain antibiotics develops in bacteria through three basic processes: mutation, transduction, and conjugation. 3. Infection-control programs, if combined with intensive infection-control measures and control of antibiotic use, may be effective at reducing the transmission of resistant pathogens.
1. Many hospitals in Australia have become proactive about environmental issues, including use of plastics, disposable drapes, and glutaraldehyde; laundering of linen; and disposal of waste. 2. Although some standards are not mandated (as in the United States), timely, comprehensive guidelines are being published. 3. Environmental advocacy demonstrates the resourcefulness and creativity of perioperative nurses, as well as a commitment to preserving the environment for future generations.
1. Many people use the word codependency without understanding its meaning. Codependency should be used to describe behaviors that have developed in a dysfunctional family in which priorities have become unbalanced, and energy is focused on ensuring that everything seems normal from the outside rather than focusing on the needs of individual family members. 2. Codependency may continue into a professional role and result in a manager who has low feelings of self-worth and a strong need for approval from others. 3. Flexibility is different from codependency. A flexible individual has strong and positive feelings of self-worth and is able to listen to opposing points of view and actively listen to others. Change and compromise are possible for this person.
1. Increasing numbers of new cases of tuberculosis have been reported each year since 1984/1985. It is estimated that from 1985 through 1992 there were over 50,000 cases in excess of projections. Many of these outbreaks have been caused by strains of multidrug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 2. The wearing of a particulate respirator [PR] may provide additional protection because of the tighter facial fit and better filtration capability as compared with a standard surgical mask. 3. The only type of PR certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and approved for use by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to have filtration efficiency for particles as small as 1 microns are high-efficiency particulate air respirators, which are expensive and can be intimidating to patients.
